Chapter 332: Mobei Good News
"Report!" A soldier rushed over and said, "General Qiyu, the anti-thief Ashina Helu has fled from the city and headed west. ”
"You stay here, continue to encircle and suppress the remnants of Ashina Helu, and report to Your Majesty on the battle situation here."
"I will lead my troops to chase Ashina Helu, and I must not let him escape, if he is allowed to unite with the remnants of the Ebilu Khan, it will be difficult to destroy him." Liang Jianfang said to Gao Deyi, the deputy head manager beside him.
"No!" Gao Deyi received the order, led people to continue to clear the remnants of Ashina Helu, and sent people to send a letter to the emperor in Chang'an for 800 miles
。
Liang Jianfang took 10,000 elite horsemen to chase Ashina Helu.
After a long journey, the messenger finally sent the intelligence from the front to the palace.
"Everyone! Mobei War Report! Wang Quan said.
"Where? Take a look. When Li Chengqian heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward to ask for it.
Wang Quan hurriedly handed the battle report to Li Chengqian, who snatched it and opened it to look at it.
"Your Majesty! King Wu and Shangshu's left servant shot Li Ke outside to see! A eunuch reported.
"Let him in." Li Chengqian said, turned around and sat down on the throne.
"No!" The eunuch bowed and retreated, and Li Ke, who heard the summons, walked in.
"Brother and courtier, see Your Majesty!" Li Ke saluted.
"No rudeness! Throne! Li Chengqian said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Ke thanked him and sat down.
"Brother Guan His Majesty's complexion is ruddy, and his face is full of joy, I don't know what kind of great joy can make the imperial brother so happy?" Li Ke saw that Li Chengqian's complexion was better than before, and asked.
"Liang Jianfang just sent a battle report to report the victory, and after I read it, I was naturally refreshed." Li Chengqian said with a smile.
"Oh! It seems that Liang Jianfang and they have succeeded, how is the battle situation in Mobei? Ashina Helu was caught? Li Ke was also overjoyed when he heard it.
"Liang Jianfang has broken through the Yaochi Governor's Mansion and defeated Ashina Helu's army, killing and capturing more than 30,000 people."
"Ashina Helu was defeated and fled westward, seeing that the general trend had gone, the Turkic five crossbows were all lost and surrendered, and Wulu heard the news of Ashina Helu's defeat, and also surrendered to Ashina Buzhen on the south bank." Li Chengqian said.
"This is really good news, I believe that it will not be long before the problem of the Mobei rebellion can be completely solved."
"What is the situation on the side of General Cheng and General Su Dingfang? What is the situation of Ashina Buzhen and Ashina Micha? Li Ke said with a smile.
Now that the battle in Mobei is going very well, the sooner this rebellion is resolved, the less burden it will be for the Tang Dynasty.
There is no need to transport supplies for a long time, which can save a lot of manpower and material resources, and the rebellion in Mobei can be quickly put down, and the roads in the Western Regions will not be affected.
The Silk Road can continue to be maintained unimpeded, and the interests of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions will not be greatly lost.
"Lu Guogong's army defeated Ge Lulu and killed thousands of enemy troops, captured 10,000 horses, and the deputy general Zhou Zhidu conquered Mukun City and killed 30,000 people."
"The former army fought against the Ashina Horu Beep Rat's army at the Eagle River and conquered the Beep Rat Nishi of Ashina Holu."
"In this battle, many enemy commanders and captured war horses were captured, and the Western Turkic soldiers were beaten and lost their armor, and their weapons were thrown everywhere."
"Su Dingfang's side is also a success, in the west of the Luzha River, defeated the soldiers and horses of the Mukun Division, and more than 10,000 accounts such as the Turkic Jinnen Dulu surrendered to the Su Dingfang Division." Li Chengqian said with a smile.
Not long after he received the battle report from Cheng Yanjin, he received the battle report from Su Dingfang and Liang Jianfang successively.
The Tang army's battle situation in Mobei was very good, and many Western Turkic tribes, seeing that Ashina Helu was gone, hurriedly surrendered to the Tang army, and joined the Tang army's team to encircle and suppress Ashina Helu.
"This is really good, I believe that we will soon be able to completely defeat Ashina Helu and completely quell the rebellion in the Western Regions."
"What is the situation of the rebel Ashina Helu now?" Li Ke said.
"Ashina Helu has now fled to Jinya Mountain, gathered the remnants of soldiers and horses, and intends to fight to the death with our Tang army for the last time." Li Chengqian said.
"This Ashina Helu is still a thief, thinking that with his remnants, he wants to confront my Tang army, which is simply wishful thinking." Li Ke said.
"That's it! Not to mention this, it is only a matter of time before Ashina Helu is eliminated, what are you looking for me? Li Chengqian asked.
It will take some time to put down the Ashina Helu rebellion and it will take some time to completely complete it, and the Western Regions can completely restore its original state.
"Your Majesty didn't ask your younger brother to screen the officials of the six ministries and recommend useful talents to serve in the six ministries some time ago."
"I came here today, and my brother is here to report to His Majesty about this matter." Li Ke said.
Some time ago, because the officials of the Six Ministries were corrupt and perverted the law, Li Chengqian asked Li Ke to take charge of this matter, mainly to clean up the people who were placed in the Six Ministries.
Li Ke investigated the six ministries, dismissed most of the officials of the six ministries and investigated them, and beheaded or exiled all the serious cases.
There were many vacant positions in the Sixth Department, and Li Chengqian asked Li Ke and Xu Jingzong to select suitable candidates and supplement these positions.
Today, Li Ke came to meet Li Chengqian for this matter.
"What kind of talents are there, let's hear about them." Li Chengqian said.
"The younger brother has been written on the list, and I ask the imperial brother to look at it." Li Ke said that, and took out the prepared list.
Wang Quan stepped forward to take the list in Li Ke's hand, turned around and handed it over to Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian opened it and carefully browsed it, and the people on the list were suitable for the positions of the sixth department, which was enough to prove that Li Ke still put a lot of effort into this aspect.
When Li Chengqian saw the last few names, he was a little dissatisfied.
He didn't expect that Li Ke would actually elect Chai Lingwu and Fang Yiai and other Li Taiyu parties, and even the Li Xin brothers were on the list.
Li Chengqian couldn't help but speculate, what did Li Ke want to do? Could it be that he still wants to rebel?
Unexpectedly, even Fang Yiai and Chai Lingwu, two waste firewood, dared to recommend them, which was obviously ill-intentioned.
Li Chengqian said quietly: "I have already read this list of yours, and the people you selected are indeed good." ”
"However, how it should be arranged, we still need to wait for Xu Jingzong to list the candidates, and then it is not too late to make a decision."
"This list of yours will be placed here for the time being, you have no opinion!"
"Brother Huang laughed! The younger brother naturally has no opinion, maybe the person recommended by Xu Shangshu is better than the one recommended by the younger brother, and it is normal for the imperial brother to choose carefully. Li Ke didn't notice anything wrong and said with a smile.
The two of them chatted for a while, and after discussing the current major events in the court, Li Ke got up and said goodbye and left.
