Chapter 208: The Turks are defeated
There is a lot of nonsense in the impeachment process, and in summary, Ding Yi acted recklessly and disregarded the law. Baidu search literature network, more good free reading.
Wang Cui's two families worked together, but they were refuted by Fang Xuanling and others.
In the end, it had to be stopped
Li Er sat firmly in the Diaoyutai and did not make any speech.
However, Li Er wanted to arrange for Ding Yi to go to the weapons prison, but there was no movement.
After the Shangyuan Festival, there is nothing to be lively about, everyone has to go back to their respective homes and be well.
After the last fight, Ding never showed up again.
On the twentieth day of the first month, Ding Yi took Tang Xuejian and others back to Shiping. The water in Chang'an is too deep, so it's better to stay in Shiping honestly.
In terms of border passes, Li Jing led 3,000 horsemen to set off from Mayi, entered Tun Evil Yang Ridge, and occupied Xiangcheng by night. Jieli did not expect the sudden arrival of the Tang army, thinking that Li Jing dared to go deep alone, and hurriedly withdrew the tooth tent to the moraine. Li Jing also sent spies to divide his subordinates, and Jieli's henchman Kang Sumi coerced the Empress Xiao of Emperor Yang of Sui and her grandson Yang Zhengdao to Dingxiang to surrender to Tang.
It's just that on the way, they were intercepted by mysterious forces, and Empress Dowager Xiao and Yang Zhengdao were snatched away.
Seeing that Kang Su had surrendered to Tang, Jieli did not dare to stay, and continued to lead his troops to retreat to Yinshan, and engaged Chai Shao's Jinhe army on the bank of the Hunhe River, and then was intercepted by the Tongmo army led by Li Ji in the army in Baidao and was defeated. Jieli retreated to Tieshan and collected tens of thousands of remnants. Jieli realized that he was no longer the opponent of the Tang army, so he sent Zhi Zhili as a special envoy to Chang'an to apologize to Tang Taizong and ask for surrender, expressing his willingness to attach himself to the country. In fact, he tried to wait for the grass and horses to be fattened, and then move to Mobei, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback.
Li Er sent Tang Jian, the secretary of Honglu Temple, and An Xiuren, the general, to the Turks to comfort him, and ordered Li Jing to lead his troops to respond. Baidu search literature network, more good free reading. In February, Li Jing led his troops to Baidao to join Li Ji, and conspired with him, believing that although Jieli was defeated, there were still many troops, and if he was allowed to flee to Mobei and attached to Xue Yantuo and other troops, it would be difficult to pursue and annihilate; Now that Tang Jian is in the Turks, he is slack and unprepared, if he chooses to attack him, he can capture it without a fight. The deputy general Zhang Gongjin was afraid that this would put Tang Jian and others in danger, and Li Jing said that as long as the Turks could be exterminated, Tang Jian and the others did not need to think about it at all. So Li Jing ordered Xu Shiyun to lead the army to follow, personally led 10,000 elite horsemen, prepared 20 days of rations each, set off overnight, and galloped towards Tieshan. Li Jingjun braved the snow to reach Yinshan, encountered more than 1,000 Turkic tents, and captured them to accompany the army. When Jieli saw that the Tang envoy came to comfort him, he thought that he was safe and sound, and he was not on guard. On the eighth day of the first month, Li Jing sent the general Su Dingfang to lead 200 cavalry as the vanguard, and under the cover of dense fog, he rushed forward and was not discovered until he was seven miles into the Jieli Ya tent. Su Dingfang drove straight into the mouth of the Turkic Jieli Khan, and Jieli fled westward by thousands of miles. Li Jing led a large army to follow up, and the Turkic army was scattered, with more than 10,000 people annihilated and more than 100,000 men and women captured. Tang Jian and An Xiuren took advantage of the chaos to escape and return.
After Jieli was defeated at Yinshan, he fled westward from the clouds, intending to defect to Murong Fuyun, the king of Tuyuhun, or Lu Wentai, the king of Gaochang. Halfway through, most of the generals defected. His son, Dioroshi, was also separated from him. Soon, Jieli Khan, who had only dozens of cavalry left around him, ran head-on into Li Daozong's Datong army. After a fierce battle, the Tang general Zhang Baoxiang captured Jieli Khan. The Turki Khan then surrendered and was crowned King of Beiping. The Turkic generals Zhi Lost Sili, Ashinadur, Ashina Simo and Qibi He Li all surrendered, and they were all reused by the Tang Dynasty. Zhenzhu Khan Yinan also expressed his submission on the table.
After this battle, the Turkic raids on the Central Plains were contained, and also played a great deterrent role in the surrounding minority regimes, the Tang Dynasty rarely received attacks from other ethnic groups after that, and the strength of the Turks was greatly weakened, thus ensuring the economic development of the Central Plains, and at the same time expanding the northern ruling area of the Tang Dynasty.
In the past three months, the good news from the north has been transmitted back to Chang'an one after another, and the Tang Dynasty, from the emperor to the beggars, is full of joy.
A few years ago, the Weishui Alliance, the Turkic power is gone.
This all proves the strength of the Tang Dynasty, and the people even wait on the streets every day for the fast horse to spread the good news.
This is the most successful turnaround since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and it is no longer a weak country
Li Er has a smiling face every day these days, under his rule, the Turks were defeated, even Jieli was captured, and even the number of times he went to Da'an Palace to ask Li Yuan for peace became more, he wanted his father to see that his decision was wrong
And after the victory, the capture of the Turks became a problem
Li Er convened his ministers to discuss how to deal with him. Most of the courtiers suggested "dividing their crops", migrating to Henan, scattering in prefectures and counties, cultivating their fields, changing their customs, and making them "Han Dynasty". Wen Yanbo put forward a different opinion, he advocated following the method of "when the Han Dynasty established the martial arts, put the Xiongnu under the Wuyuan Fortress", and settled the Turks in the Shuofang land in the Henan area, "all their tribes have to be defended, and they do not depart from their local customs, so they can be cared for, one is a really empty place, and the other shows no suspicion." However, Wen Yanbo's idea was fiercely opposed by Wei Zheng, the secretary and supervisor, who believed that the Turks had been plagued since ancient times and were difficult to manage, and that resettlement in the interior was tantamount to "a disease of the heart and a self-inflicted problem of raising animals", and advocated that these people should still be placed on the frontier and make them "live in their old land".
Wen Yanbo insisted on his own views and advocated the use of virtue and Huaizhi, saying that "teaching them rituals, electing their chiefs, and sending them to Huaide, what is the danger." The essence of Wen Yanbo's method of resettlement of the Turks is to respect the production methods and customs of the Turkic people, and to give the Turkic people a certain degree of autonomy, and obviously to adopt an enlightened policy of national assimilation on the basis of unity.
Li Er finally adopted Wen Yanbo's suggestion and moved 100,000 Turkic families into the Central Plains, of which 30,000 settled in Chang'an; From Youzhou in the east to Lingzhou in the west, the governors of Shun, You, Chang and Bizhou settled the Turkic people, and appointed the leaders of the Turkic tribes as the governors or assassins to command the original people; Some Turkic nobles were also selected to serve as military officials in Beijing, among which there were more than 100 generals and Zhonglang generals above the fifth rank.
And Ding Yi, who had been hiding in Shiping for a few months, immediately packed up and prepared to return to Beijing after receiving the news.
Construction is taking place everywhere in Shiping, and the surrounding people have also given up their work of dozens of wen a day because of spring ploughing
However, this is not difficult for Ding Yi, the rotary tiller has been improved to the 354 version as early as a month ago
This rotary tiller has a very high efficiency of crushing soil, and the soil is very deep, and it has reached three feet into the soil
Xiao Qing saw Liu Hu and the others packing up, and hurriedly ran to the study to find Ding Yi.
"Young master, you have to go back to Beijing again" Xiao Qing's expression was very strange.
"What's the matter" when I returned to Beijing, I defeated the Eastern Turks, arrested so many people, how can I do it without some labor
Xiao Qing was embarrassed for a while, and finally made up her mind, and said seriously: "I just want to say that if you want a lot of masters to leave something to me, you can just do it at the beginning."
She just didn't want Ding to make trouble in Chang'an again and again, and she wanted to go to Dali Temple again
