Although the Uighur army was defeated, he was not captured or died on the flight, after all, he still had 3,000 guards with him to cover his retreat to Xizhou.

However, Fu Gulin was still a little embarrassed.

Because he was the first to flee back to the camp of Datun City, he wanted to join the troops left there, but who would have thought that the camp outside Datun City was also broken by the Tang army.

There was no way, and Fu Gulin could only flee north, that is, in the direction of Xizhou City.

But on the way, he was caught up by the Tang army, and if it weren't for the 2,000 soldiers left to intercept him, maybe he would really become a prisoner.

When he fled back to Xizhou City, the entire Xizhou City was shocked.

At the beginning, the people of Xizhou City watched Fu Gulin lead an army of 70,000 to the south to conquer Zhongyunbu, but only a few thousand people came back, and the shock brought was not small.

Soon, they learned that the 70,000 Uighur army had been defeated at the hands of the Tang army in Zhongyunbu, and most of them were killed or captured except for a few who escaped.

For a time, the entire Xizhou City was full of wails.

But before they could cry for long, the entire Xizhou City was like a great enemy, because the scouts found a large number of cavalry in the south of Xizhou City.

And they killed people when they saw them, and the tribes and patrolling soldiers outside the city suffered heavy losses, and this cavalry directly killed a few miles outside the city of Xizhou.

Standing on the city wall and seeing the neat queue of cavalry in the distance, the defenders' expressions were a little unpleasant.

And Fu Gulin, who heard the news, was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood, and then fainted.

"General, are we going to hang around under the city walls? Shock the Uighurs? ”

Standing a few miles away, looking at the city wall in the distance, the generals next to him were a little nervous.

"There's no need. The strength of the Uighurs was not so bad, and we only took advantage of the great victory, so the Uighurs did not move.

Wait, two or three years at most, we will be able to enter and exit this Western State in a bright and bright way.

This is the place where my Tang Dynasty started in the Western Regions! ”

In the 14th year of Tang Zhenguan (640 AD), Hou Jun set up Gaochang and set up the Xizhou Protectorate in Gaochang Kingdom, so Xizhou is also the place where the Tang Dynasty Anxi Protectorate began.

For Xizhou, the entire Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate has a deep plot.

At this time, a fast horse galloped over, "General, Uighur cavalry has been found twenty miles away, and there are at least several thousand. ”

Wan Baichuan looked at it, took the reins of the horse, glanced at Xizhou City, and said lightly, "Withdraw!" ”

After Wan Baichuan gave an order, the soldiers of the Zuo Shence Army rode their horses and turned around, and then quickly left.

Although the retreat of the Tang army made the people in Xizhou City breathe a sigh of relief, this matter was not over, and it was not so easy to downplay this matter.

Some clever people guessed that for many years to come, the Uighurs in Western China would be shrouded in the shadow of the Tang army.

。。。。。。

The battle in the Western Regions, Li Ye, who was far away in Chang'an, didn't know that even if Jinyiwei had a flying pigeon transmission, it would take several days, after all, the distance was more than 5,000 miles, and even Jinyiwei's carrier pigeon could not ensure such a long-distance flight.

There are several transfers in between, and several carrier pigeons have to be sent each time to ensure that the message can be delivered.

In addition to this method, there is also an eight-hundred-mile expedited, but the speed is much slower, but the content is more detailed.

However, the imperial court got the news about Nanzhao.

To be honest, a group of important ministers were also a little shocked when they learned that Zheng Maisi had killed almost the entire Nanzhao royal family, which was really ruthless enough.

"Your Majesty, now that Zheng Maisi has slaughtered the Nanzhao royal family, Duan Baolong has rebelled against the Tang Dynasty and embraced the Nanzhao royal family as the emperor, so that some of my Tang Dynasty's troops will be unknown." Wei Zhaodu couldn't help but worry.

"Your Majesty, the new monarch supported by Duan Baolong doesn't know if he is from the Nanzhao royal family." Sun Ye was a little puzzled.

"At this time, it doesn't matter whether it is from the Nanzhao royal family or not. No one can confirm it, as long as Duan Baolong says yes, that is.

The minister was just worried that Duan Baolong would take this opportunity to control the remaining few feudal towns in Nanzhao and become a resistance to my Tang army. ”

In the past, Quy Nhon Shao would definitely not sing against Sun Ye, but now it is different.

His daughter is about to become the crown princess, and there is a natural conflict with Sun Ye, who supports King Di.

"Pei Aiqing, how is the war in Nanzhao now?" Li Ye didn't care about the confrontation between the two, but looked at Pei Rong.

Seeing this, Pei Rong hurriedly stood up and said, "Back to Your Majesty, after the change in the capital of Nanzhao. Cui Anqian, the governor of Pingnan, did not launch an attack on the Nanzhao Shibi area, but turned eastward. At present, our army has captured all of the Langdong Jiedu Envoys, the Tuodong Jiedu Envoys and most of the Tonghai Governor's Mansion.

These are all news that came a few days ago, Nanzhao is far away from Chang'an, and I am afraid that these three towns have already belonged to my Datang these days. ”

"It means that my Datang has occupied nearly half of the territory of Nanzhao?" Li Ye said.

Pei Rong bowed and said, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true. ”

"Your Majesty, now Nanzhao is divided into three, and there are new monarchs on the other two sides (Zheng Maihei has already been proclaimed emperor). The death of Shun Huazhen also deprived Datang of a good reason to send troops.

Although I, the Tang Dynasty, have captured the three towns of Nanzhao, there are very few Han people in these three towns, and we do not have a solid foundation for ruling here.

If Zheng Maisi or Duan Baolong instigated these indigenous barbarians to rise up and make a rebellion, my Tang army would definitely be miserable.

Therefore, the minister suggested that my Tang Dynasty should also set up a new monarch in Nanzhao, so as to avoid the gains and losses of the three towns in a short time. Li Zhen opened his mouth to suggest.

Li Ye nodded, "Aiqing is reasonable, but where can I go to find a new monarch for Nanzhao?" The Nanzhao Meng clan was killed by Zheng Maisi. ”

Li Zhen smiled, "Your Majesty forgot about the Longteng in Chang'an? He is a member of the Nanzhao royal family, and he is also the imperial uncle of Shun Huazhen.

After the slaughter of the Nanzhao royal family now, his bloodline should be the most orthodox. ”

Li Ye's eyes lit up, "I still forgot about this." ”

"Your Majesty, in addition to this, Cui An sneaked into the story about the sparse Han population in the three towns of Nanzhao. If it continues for a long time, I am afraid that it will not be conducive to the rule of my Tang Dynasty in this place, and I hope that Your Majesty will have made a decision. Li Zhen reminded.

"This is handed over to Sichuan Dao." Li Ye said in a deep voice, "Sichuan Province and Shannan West Road have a large population.

In this way, let Sichuan Dao find a way to migrate 100,000 households to Nanzhao within five years, and Shannan West Dao to Zhennan Governor's Mansion within five years. ”

Regarding the reason for the scarcity of Han people in Nanzhao, Li Ye had also heard Jinyiwei's report before, and this matter really had to be taken seriously.

In order to quickly consolidate the occupation of these places, the migratory population is the fastest.

"Your Majesty, is it mandatory?" Hubu Shangshu Li Mi hesitated.

The Ministry of Household Affairs is already under the control of the Ministry of Households, and although there are two departments that are specifically responsible, the Ministry of Households also has the power to intervene.

"Mandatory. However, I do not want large-scale public resentment, and for the people who have migrated to the Zhennan Governor's Mansion and Nanzhao, the land and other policies will be implemented in the same way as in Dongning Prefecture and other places, and it can be slightly increased.

The household department doesn't care about that little bit of taxation, if Nanzhao can become the land of my Datang, the taxes brought by it will definitely be much higher than the taxes paid by these hundreds of thousands of households in recent years.

As for the place of migration, it can be centered on important towns and radiate to the surrounding areas. From point to point, let my Han people gain a foothold in Nanzhao and change the proportion of the population of Fanhan. Li Ye put forward his thoughts.

Li Ye's words, naturally no one dares to refute them.

Li Zhen spoke at the right time, "Your Majesty, where is Longteng?" ”

"I have my own considerations."
