Chapter 293: Give you five years

Goguryeo is finished!

After two months of marching, it took only one month to destroy Goguryeo.

When Yu Zhiqian walked into the capital of Goguryeo, it was already three days later, and the soldiers of the Yu Tang Empire who killed the red eyes emptied the city, Yu Zhiqian only symbolically walked into the Goguryeo royal city, and then left quickly.

After so many deaths, the devil knows if there will be any plague, Yu Zhiqian, a person who cherishes his life very much, will never let himself be in such danger, entered the city with one foot, and quickly retreated, and then began to let the soldiers carry the finances of the Goguryeo city.

The country of Goguryeo existed for a while, accumulated a lot of wealth, and it took half a month before all the wealth was concentrated.

Except for the 50,000 troops who looted the land, the rest of the soldiers were disposing of the corpses, and everyone was required to carry various things such as simple masks, and at the same time, they had to disinfect and bathe every day to ensure that the plague did not spread among the army.

Half a month later, after sweeping away all the wealth of Goguryeo, Yu Zhiqian and others began to return to the court, but there are still many problems to deal with on the Goguryeo side, first of all, the people of Goguryeo, Yu Zhiqian is ready to forcibly relocate after returning and integrate into the Han people, of course, this is talking about women.

As for Silla and Baekje, Su Dingfang had already led a large army to find trouble, and if nothing else, he would soon be able to include these two small countries in the territory.

The end of this battle represents the complete elimination of hidden dangers in the northeast region of the Yutang Empire, and it can be assured that it can be reassured.

Two months later, in the middle of summer, there was a sea of people outside Chang'an, and ordinary people and officials flocked to the outside of the city to welcome the army back to the court.

The news of the destruction of Goguryeo spread back to the Yutang Empire like wings, compared to the dozens of small countries destroyed by Su Dingfang before, Goguryeo, many people are very familiar with it, knowing that it is a country located in the northeast of the Yutang Empire, and the strength is not weak.

And that's not all, the most important thing is that the casualties on this expedition are said to be low.

Yu Zhiqian did not destroy a country with zero casualties, but there were still some casualties, and a total of more than 1,400 people were sacrificed in the conquest of Goguryeo, of which more than 1,100 died because they did not adapt to the climate and did not adapt to the water and soil.

The remaining 300 people were the damage caused by the battle, in fact, more than 200 people died during the attack on the Goguryeo royal fortress and the final destruction of the city, and some of the rest died during the attack on some small cities.

More than 3,000 people were injured, and most of them were rescued.

The casualties of the Yutang Empire were very low, but the results were great, and the 310,000 troops of Goguryeo disappeared, and in addition to the death data of Goguryeo, no one counted them, it was too much, and it was impossible to calculate if you wanted to, and the corpses were all over the field, and it was difficult to count.

When Yu Zhiqian's personal soldiers appeared on the horizon from afar, a huge cheer broke out, and some people in the crowd kept shouting loudly, coming, coming, coming!

The Yu Tang Empire attaches the most importance to military merits, and Yu Zhiqian's contribution to the destruction of Goguryeo is very great, Yu Zhiqian does not need credit, but the sergeants and generals need credit, and most of these greetings have family members in the army.

The army slowly walked towards Chang'an City, and when it was about ten miles away from Chang'an City, the old emperor was Yu Zhiqian's father, and the current wife of the emperor greeted the army with the aftermath of the current emperor.

When all the ministers saw Yu Zhiqian's car, they immediately saluted, then stood up and saluted the sergeant.

The official of the Ministry of Rites walked out and began to read out the merits, and then, in a burst of victory, Yu Zhiqian walked out of the car......

The whole process was very complicated, but Yu Zhiqian did not have any impatience, this is the honor that these soldiers deserve, and Yu Zhiqian is very happy to see these soldiers receive such treatment.

After the ceremony, Yu Zhiqian led the army to enter the city, and the first thing was not to return to the palace, but to go to the Martyrs' Shrine, and place the ashes of the soldiers who died on this expedition and the ranks.

After dealing with these, Yu Zhiqian returned to the palace.

Goguryeo is over, Yu Zhiqian's next target is Dongying people, the old emperor is also very clear, the old emperor in the study stared at Yu Zhiqian, after looking at it for a while, he slowly said: "It's matured a lot, Goguryeo's things are doing well!" ”

These old emperors rarely praised Yu Zhiqian, hearing the old emperor's praise, Yu Zhiqian was stunned for a moment, and then scratched his head a little embarrassed: "I still haven't done better, I'm doing things with will!" ”

"I know! However, in this battle, the surrounding alien races have not dared to move for a hundred years! ”

Hearing the old emperor's words, Yu Zhiqian slowly shook his head: "Father, I think our goals should not only be around, we also have longer-term goals!" ”

After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian opened the map and pointed with his finger, the most powerful Arab Empire at present, and the Indian region! ”

"These areas also have some rich resources, and we have to take them down and give them to future generations!"

Now the Arab region is relatively desolate, not as good as the Central Plains, but Yu Zhiqian knows how rich the materials are hidden in that area, and those countries in later generations rely on these resources, and they don't have to do anything, and chickens can become the richest country.

Yu Zhiqian is not a big careerist, he didn't think about unifying the world, after all, it is a little unrealistic, and the current population is not enough to unify the world, but now is the best time to stake the land, most of the surrounding countries are not the opponents of the Yu Tang Empire, and occupy as many areas as possible for future generations.

"The Arab Empire?"

The old emperor looked at the map and fell into deep thought, and then slowly spoke: "I have also learned about the Arab Empire during this time, this is a powerful country, if you start a war rashly!" ”

After hearing this, the corners of Yu Zhiqian's mouth twitched slightly: "Father, in five years, in five years, our science and technology will continue to progress, and now we are inventing artillery, arquebuses and other equipment, although the progress is slow, but I believe there will be progress!" ”

After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian pointed to the map again: "The harvest of Goguryeo this time is enough to pave a road, from Chang'an to Yangguan, after the railway is repaired, it has greatly improved the material transportation capacity of the Yutang Empire, as long as this road is repaired, it will not be a problem to go to Central Asia!"

"Well, five years, I still have five years to go!"

The old emperor's words are to tell Yu Zhiqian, I will give you the prison in the past five years, and you can handle things well.

After Yu Zhiqian heard this, a smile appeared on his face, and he finally had the upper hand in the competition with his cheap father.

Five years later, he sent troops to Central Asia, but Yu Zhiqian's goal now is to fight in the East!
