Chapter Seventy-Three: Resolute and Resolute

Pei Min, who had achieved such a big victory, gave the first order to block the news of the victory.

"Immediately spread the news to the Western Regions, saying that some of the remnants of the Arab army fled into the sand of Xizhou, and the Yumen was closed for half a month, and no person, flower, grass or beast was allowed to enter or leave the customs. If there is a person who takes risks, he will be punished for the crime of collaborating with the enemy. ”

After giving this order, Pei Min arranged the affairs of the Western Regions, so that all the generals and soldiers, including the king of Tocharo, would meet in Tuozhi City.

Victory!

The Longyou Army, the Hexi Army, the Anxi Army, the Beiting Army, the four major legions under Pei Min, and the coalition forces of the Western Regions were all ecstatic.

This battle lasted for more than a year, and nearly 500,000 soldiers and horses on both sides deployed troops on the land of the Western Regions.

This vigorous battle touched the hearts of thousands of people in many sides of the alliance and finally ended in the victory of the Tang Dynasty.

Under Pei Minbu's ten-way ambush, less than 10,000 of the 200,000 Arab troops were able to escape back to Arabia alive, and almost all of them were wiped out.

However, the Tang army also paid a heavy price, with more than 20 generals and generals, large and small, killed, including Pei Min's most hardcore henchmen like Li Yide.

The most powerful Shence army under Pei Min suffered most of the losses, more than half of the casualties of Fugu Huaien's troops, Cui Xiyi's troops almost collapsed, and the other armies were slightly better and also paid a certain amount of casualties.

As for the coalition army of the princes of the Western Regions, which is second in combat effectiveness, the best ally of the Tang Dynasty, the king of Kangguo, the boss of the nine surnamed countries in the Western Regions, Kang Shulie, cut off an arm for the Arab soldiers in the last battle, when he was guarding Pei Min's right wing, and the general Wupu, Wang Zhonghe's father-in-law, was killed in the charge......

To sum up, the Tang army also had more than 38,000 martyrs buried in a foreign land, plus 8,000 cavalry killed by Gelulu, more than 20,000 troops of the Western Regions princes' coalition army, and nearly 60,000 battle losses.

However, in the face of such a big victory, such battle damage is also a bit insignificant.

All the soldiers were cheering for victory......

Pei Min joined all the generals of the army in Tuozhi City: Wang Zhongsi, Feng Changqing, Gao Xianzhi, Fugu Huaien, Zhang Xiaosong, Cui Xiyi, Li Siye, plus the king of Tochar, Umogan, and next to Umogan stood the hero who persuaded him to surrender, Li Linfu.

Pei Min made eye contact with Zhu Yuan and came to Wu Mogan's side.

Wu Mogan looked at Pei Min in front of him with a little complexity, bent down respectfully, and said: "The criminal Wu Mogan doesn't know what to do, and he is the enemy of the Celestial Empire, I hope that the king of the county can understand the suffering of the widows of the small country." ”

When he said this, there was something bitter in his mouth.

Umogan has no ambition and is dedicated to protecting Tocharo, hoping that Tocharian and his family can leave the scourge of war and live and work in peace and contentment.

Mosley Massa's grace to the rescue, Umogan is unforgettable.

Now he stabbed his benefactor at the most critical time of Mosley Massa, and he really couldn't help it.

But thinking of the coercion and temptation of this elegant scribe beside him, the game between the great powers, how can a small country like Tocharian have independent power in the middle?

If you are not careful, the country will be ruined and the people will die.

Under pressure, Umogan could only choose to compromise.

Pei Min didn't stab Wu Mogan's heart either, and didn't praise his merits.

This time was able to give the Arabian maximum damage, and Umogan contributed a lot. If he had not intercepted the return of the remnants of the Arab army, at least thirty or forty thousand defeated soldiers would have fled back to Arabia.

As long as these defeated soldiers take a short rest, they will have considerable combat effectiveness, which will be greatly disadvantageous to the overall situation.

Pei Min said generously: "Don't mention the past...... I have heard that the Arabs have usurped your horse farms, ruined your ecology and caused great damage to your economy. Are you feeling sad this winter? ”

He didn't wait for Umogan to speak, and said, "In this way, I'll support you with some soybean fodder when I go back, and in addition, there should be a lot of mare's milk wine and pomegranates that you are rich in, right?" How many, I can contact the merchant here to collect all at the market price. ”

Umogan said movingly: "The county king is very gracious, and Umogan is unforgettable." ”

This is also the biggest difference between Pei Min and Mosley Massa.

Mosley Massa is a rough person, and he is far less delicate than Pei Min in this critical exchange.

Pei Min continued: "It's okay, I will never treat any partner who is willing to be friendly with us. Next, I will send a large army directly westward to attack Arabia. It is inevitable that they will pass through your land, but the king can rest assured that the discipline of our army is not comparable to that of Arabia. Along the way, I don't dare to say that Qiu has not committed any crimes, but as long as there is a disturbance to the people, you can tell Shi Yan Gaoqing, the governor of Anxi, that his squareness, the king should have heard of it. ”

Wu Mogan was originally a little worried, but when he heard Pei Min say this, he was also relieved. At the same time, I was also glad that if I hadn't surrendered to the Tang army today, the Tang army would have already attacked Tocharian at this moment.

If Arabia is so strong, it is not an opponent, and how can it resist it as a small country?

Pei Min immediately walked in front of everyone and said, "Wang Zhongsi, Gao Xianzhi, and Feng Changqing listen to the order!" ”

Wang Zhongsi, Gao Xianzhi, and Feng Changqing stood up without hesitation.

Pei Min said: "You immediately reorganize the soldiers, horses, grain and grass, attack Arabia, and be sure to take Damascus City for me." This trip, with loyal heirs as the mainstay, Chang Qing and Xianzhi supplemented, the tactical style of play is formulated by the three of you. But beware, this battle may lead to a conflict with our allies, Byzantium. Don't be too restrained, they did hold back some of our troops, and it's not too much to ask for something we deserve. ”

In full view of everyone, he asked people to take the map, spread it on the ground, drew a large circle in the city of Damascus with the scabbard of the Qin Emperor, and said: "This is ours, and the rest of the territory is up to them." If he wants to put his hand in front of us and grab food, then don't hesitate to cut it off. ”

"No!" Wang Zhongsi, Gao Xianzhi, and Feng Changqing shouted their orders!

"Zhang Xiaosong, Cui Xiyi, you continue to stay in the Western Regions to assist Yan Gaoqing in his long history and stabilize the situation. Fugu Huai'en, Li Siye, you each lead the Qu Division, and return to the army with me......"

He acted resolutely, and the orders were given publicly, and there was no intention of concealing them at all.

His original intention was to let the people of Byzantium know that when drinking soup, he Pei Min has no opinion, if you want to eat meat, ask Tang Jun's knife first, if it is sharp enough.

In private, Pei Min asked Wang Zhongsi to talk in detail.

For his younger brother, Pei Min didn't have anything to hide, "Actually, my original plan was to personally capture Damascus City and leave a way back for myself." It's just that now that something has happened to the temple, I have to go back and clean up some clowns. I don't know what to do about the future. However, the results we have worked so hard to achieve have no reason for Byzantium and Franks to choose cheaply. This Damascus city, you must take it for me. ”

Wang Zhongsi knew what Pei Min was talking about, and said solemnly: "Brother will definitely live up to Brother Min's trust." I just don't know what happened in the East? This battle was fought fiercely, not Brother Min's style. ”

Pei Min just said five words: "Li Yi is dead!" ”
