Chapter 969: The Class Master Returns to the Dynasty
The army was opened, and Luo Zhaoyun's class returned to Beijing, with a huge team, 50,000 or 60,000 people, including the imperial forest army of Miyagi, the military horses of each guard, and more than 20,000 prisoners with him.
These Turkic captives, with no weapons or horses, were escorted all the way on foot, to be sent to a temporary prison outside the capital, and then sent to the Jiangling area to cooperate with Li Jing's army to attack the city of Xiao Liang.
At this time, the morale of the triumphant return is completely different from the mentality when he set off.
Many of the soldiers were elated, defeated the Turkic army, defeated the more with less, and once again miraculously defeated the enemy.
The flag fluttered, the team lined up in a long line, the armor was trampled, the iron hooves vibrate, and they returned to Beijing.
Outside the south gate of Zhuque Street in Chang'an City, Empress Changsun and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs are waiting here to receive the wind for His Majesty and congratulate him on his triumph.
The team came slowly, approached the capital, outside the Shili Pavilion Post Station, there are military officials who greet the soldiers and horses, such as not coming, the main Bo, etc., the first step to make arrangements for the troops returning to Beijing, it is impossible to enter the capital with all the armor, some of the troops mobilized from all over the country to come to King Qin's army, to camp here, and then wait for the arrangement.
Luo Zhaoyun only returned to Beijing with the Imperial Forest Army, and the Turkic captives were also held here, waiting for future mobilization and placement.
"Boom!"
All the sharp armor light horses, comeback, dusty, people like tigers, horses like dragons, under the sun, iron armor shines.
"Your Majesty is back."
In the procession of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers at the south gate of the capital, they all saw the dragon flag flying, and the iron horses rushed over, and they saw that it was the banner and formation of the Imperial Forest Army, and they were all overjoyed.
There are officials from the three provinces, six ministries and nine secretaries, as well as officials from the twelve Wei Mansions, but the ranks are all above the fourth grade, and it is impossible for all minor officials to come to the team.
On the periphery of the armor, there are groups of people who come to watch the excitement, and they are also welcoming the return of the Son of Heaven.
"Knock on Your Majesty, long live long live!"
When Luo Zhaoyun rode his horse closer, Chun Yu Wan'er and the civil and military officials, the soldiers stationed there, and the onlookers all knelt.
Luo Zhaoyun walked over, stretched out his hand to help the eldest grandson Wurong, let her stand beside him, and then said to the ministers of civil and military affairs: "No courtesy, get up." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone got up in an uproar, and when they saw His Majesty, most of them showed excitement.
The eldest grandson Wuji got up and arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty drove the expedition in person, broke the Turks, returned triumphantly, solved the troubles of the border in one fell swoop, and the achievements were brilliant, and the world praised you!" ”
Luo Zhaoyun heard the praise of the eldest grandson Wuji, and said with a smile: "I am the honor of the Ninety-Five, facing danger, since I should stand up and solve the difficulty of the upside-down, it should be, now that the northwest is stable, the Turkic Khan died on the battlefield, after which the Turks will collapse, and I Dahua will have no border rebellion. Except for Xiao Liang, Du Fuwei and some other separatist forces in the south, other places have entered a period of no war, and development and peace of the people have become the first priority. ”
"We will remember His Majesty's teachings!" After listening to His Majesty's lecture and tasting the truth in it, the ministers kept nodding their heads.
In terms of governing the country, Luo Zhaoyun's views are naturally more than those of these civil and military ministers, and they are even farther, and what the current situation is, through the feedback of the intelligence network, coupled with his own familiarity and insights on history, it is easy for him to recognize the current situation.
After the chaos, after the war of the Great Sui, the heroes were divided, displaced, the people were affected by war, hunger, plague, famine, etc., the population plummeted by nearly one-third, most of them died of starvation and disease, because the war will affect farming, although there are surpluses in several treasury warehouses of the Great Sui, but they are all scavenged from the hands of the people, but the people in various places do not have much surplus grain at home, and if they do not farm for a year, they are likely to starve to death.
This is the biggest disaster brought about by the war and the troubled times, that is, the cultivation is not timely, it is abandoned, the men are dragged to fight, the people carry grain, resulting in a shortage of labor, plus most of the refugees, few people are engaged in production.
In the year since Luo Zhaoyun became the ruler of Chang'an, he has continuously issued government decrees, and the top priority is to stabilize the people's hearts, so that those displaced people have returned to their own townships.
"Let's go back to the palace first, tomorrow morning the court is in deliberations!" Luo Zhaoyun let the hundred officials disband and go home, he took the queen's hand, walked up to the palace dragon, and under the protection of the Ouchi guards, walked along Suzaku Street towards the palace.
Along the way, there is a festive atmosphere, the streets are overcrowded on both sides, the palace carriage passes, these Chang'an people all kneel down to give salutes, shouting long live long live.
The eldest grandson sighed: "Your Majesty's personal expedition this time, with less to win more, breaking the people's worries, many quick death theories, defeat theories, have disappeared, this time the victory in the big war, can be a strange use of soldiers, no one expected in advance, will win so beautiful!" ”
Luo Zhaoyun thought that tens of thousands of soldiers had died on the battlefield, and the thrilling process, completely competing for endurance and courage, a slight rout, it was likely to be destroyed, and the result of the victory seemed to be perfect, but it was actually very difficult.
"It's not easy, our army is about sixty or seventy thousand, all of them died in battle, and this victory is also premised on huge sacrifices, otherwise, how can we resist hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry. However, fortunately, after the end of the war, the Turkic troubles in the northwest were solved, and we could govern the country with peace of mind and no worries. ”
"Next, there is Xiao Liang, Your Majesty will not lead troops to the expedition again, right?" Empress Eldest Sun asked worriedly.
Luo Zhaoyun hesitated for a moment and sighed: "Several secessionist regimes in the south are unstable on their heels, and it is difficult to compete with my Dahua's heroic iron cavalry, Li Jing concentrates on attacking Xiao Liang, and next, I will send Xu Shiji to gather troops from Luoyang to the south to deal with the territory of Du Fuwei, Fu Gongtuo, and Li Zitong, and I can handle state affairs with peace of mind and stabilize the court." ”
After being silent for a while, Luo Zhaoyun punned on the words: "At the beginning of the founding of the country, it seemed that the world was stable, but in fact, there was an undercurrent, I couldn't make a wedding dress for others, my battlefield was not in the south, but in the court, the gate valve was complicated, and it would affect the development of the new deal, so I had to lay out it in advance." ”
"Oh, Your Majesty Shengming!" Empress Eldest Sun was silent, and when it came to political affairs, she was inconvenient to ask too much.
Luo Zhaoyun looked at the streets and crowds outside the curtain, and smiled faintly, although Datang is a prosperous era in history, but relatively speaking, the people in this era are still poor, drought, Yellow River floods, locust plagues, plagues, etc., have also happened many times in Datang, the poor people often die and injure hundreds of thousands, millions, he wants to change the aspects of these Li people's suffering, so that his people can live better.
