Chapter 379: Born in Sorrow and Died in Peace
Datang is distressed, the coalition forces are even more distressed, they are not so hopeful, and the brave people are all made up by various tribes, so there are more distressed people.
For the next fight, many people have retreated. In the past few days of fighting, everyone has seen it, Li Yuanba, Luo Shixin, Situ Changfeng, Qin Qiong, Luo Cheng, Wei Chigong, and the coalition army has listed a large number of people, and no one is willing to fight against these people by themselves.
Not to mention that among the young people, Luo Tong, Luo Huan, Qin Huaiyu, Fan Lihua, Bai San, and Ma Zhan, although they are young, they are all heaven-level, so where can they see a glimmer of hope.
"Long live the venerable Heavenly Khan! The next country does not know the power of heaven, offending the face of heaven, please forgive me, and I am willing to offer cattle, sheep and horses to make up for my mistakes......
Ha ha! Ha ha! Check it out! Li Shimin, who was in a good mood, handed out a stack of scrolls and said with a laugh.
Situ Changfeng took a look at it and found that this was a letter admitting defeat from Turkic, Xiongnu, Tubo and other countries. The letter stated that they were wrong, and that all of them were honored by Li Shimin as their common khan, called Tian Khan, and were willing to make an offering to express their apologies.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty! This victory has been divided, the coalition forces admit defeat, and it is all up to His Majesty Tianwei! The eldest grandson Wuji took the lead in congratulating loudly.
"Haha, this is all the victory of your Aiqing's advice and hard work, I can't be greedy!" Li Shimin smiled modestly.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" At this time, of course, no one was disappointed, and everyone hurriedly congratulated in unison.
"Haha! Ha ha! Rejoice and rejoice! ”
"Although the coalition forces admit defeat, they still can't be happy too early, and beware of fraudulent surrender!" After congratulating, Wei Zheng began to pour cold water and remind everyone to stay calm.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the army will not let down its vigilance until the last moment!" Li Jing assured.
"Since the coalition forces admit defeat, they always have to pay some price, and a single bit of cattle, sheep and horses can't make up for the damage they have brought to Datang." Situ Changfeng reminded.
"But these tribes have nothing to compensate for but cattle, sheep and horses." Li Shimin frowned.
"Since the coalition forces have promised to provide cattle, sheep and horses, we are being aggressive, wouldn't it be a loss of great country demeanor." Guozi Priest Wine Kong Yida objected with a straight face.
"Humph! These tribes are nomadic people, accustomed to the law of the jungle, do not know how to be afraid, do not squeeze and so on, and will send troops to rob and kill. Situ Changfeng said dissatisfiedly. For those who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and treat other countries, the most disgusting and reliable is force, and only when they have a big fist can they be guaranteed to speak.
"Etiquette and religion are equally convincing, and coercion can only bring greater resistance." Kong Yida retorted unconvinced.
"If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, and you will not be the same as Hua. Why did Kong Saijiu forget even this sentence? Enlightenment, that will also be after occupying their land and conquering it! Situ Changfeng looked at Kong Yida with disdain and asked rhetorically.
"You ......"
"What am I? Isn't that right? Otherwise, Confucius sacrificed wine to educate and see the Turks, when did the Tubo people surrender and move inward? Situ Changfeng continued.
"You...... I ......" Kong Yida was overtly relieved by his burst of cannons. Angry and stretched out his fingers, trembling.
"Okay, what the two Aiqing said makes sense, don't fight." Li Shimin was worried that Kong Yida would be angry, so he hurriedly played a round.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since the victory has been won, it is not too much for the victor to put forward some conditions, if the conditions are not mentioned, the coalition forces are probably still worried that we will settle accounts after the autumn." Fang Xuanling said euphemistically.
"Well, Aiqing is reasonable, but how to mention this condition, we still have to grasp a degree, lest the coalition think that we have no intention of talking." Li Shimin agreed.
"Your Majesty is wise, the Xiongnu, the Turks, the Tibetans, and even the three countries of the peninsula, the Japanese slaves, their situations are different, and the conditions really need to be treated separately."
"Xuan Ling is reasonable, what suggestions do you have for Aiqing?" Li Shimin nodded and asked.
"The minister thinks that the Turks and the Xiongnu can ask for more war horses, plough cattle, and open up the mutual market at the same time, which can be regarded as making up for them, so that they can accept it, and we can also buy enough wool, cattle and sheep, and sell more salt and tea.
As for Tibet, this is really poor and white, so I don't want a lion to open his mouth and see how much they can come up with. Fang Xuanling suggested.
"Yes, Fang Gong is right, the Tubo people can block them on the plateau, anyway, this defeat, within ten years, they will not be able to come again." Li Ji agreed.
"The three countries of the peninsula, the minister suggested that nothing should be taken, since they dare to stretch out their claws, then we must not only chop off the claws, but also destroy them, and compensate us to take it ourselves." Situ Changfeng added.
"The minister seconded the proposal, this time the multinational countries jointly sent troops, don't teach a lesson or two, can't say it, just destroy the two families, in order to set an example, otherwise there will be people who will attack the Tang Dynasty in the future." Li Jing agreed with certainty.
"Yes, a small country dares to come and take advantage, it is time to make an example of the monkey and let others see the consequences of offending Datang!" Qin Qiong agreed murderously.
"Exactly! Next year, the peninsula will be destroyed, and the military department will come up with a plan for this matter! Li Shimin is also restless, and when he said that this time, more than a dozen families, large and small, jointly attacked, he still held back the fire in his heart.
Li Shimin, who had not rested well for several months, listened to the analysis of several people, and agreed to take the peninsula out of anger.
Li Shimin was still very pragmatic, so he followed the suggestion and demanded compensation from the Turks for 50,000 war horses and 20,000 cattle, 30,000 war horses and 10,000 cattle from the Xiongnu, and 30,000 war horses and 50,000 yaks from the Tibetans.
After a few days of negotiations, the three kingdoms agreed to the terms of the Tang Dynasty and offered them every year, but the Tang Dynasty also promised to sell them grain in the event of a famine.
In fact, this is all expected, the Turks are the richest, but the internal division, after this war, there is no strength to fight against the Tang Dynasty, can only pinch their noses and admit it, and the Xiongnu and Tibet, the environment is harsh, survival is difficult, in the face of the Tang Dynasty promised to buy and sell grain, can not refuse.
And this time Datang did not lie, because grain smuggling has always existed, but this time it has become the imperial court, although the north has been plagued by natural disasters in recent years, but the south still has a bumper harvest every year, so the imperial court has a lot of grain.
Many people did not support selling grain to the Turks and the Xiongnu, believing that it was a capital enemy, and even if they did, they could only sell a small amount.
Only Situ Changfeng agreed to sell in large quantities, and also increased vegetables and fruits, salt, tea, cloth and silk, and a sentence of being born in sorrow and dying in peace dispelled everyone's doubts.
