Chapter 459 Under the whole world, only I am China!
Most of the Western Regions are in the desert Gobi, and the location of Broken Leaf City is a plateau. If it weren't for the human factor, a natural disaster like a flood would have been almost impossible.
Hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops watched the flood roar down, destroying the entire Broken Leaf City, most of the four city walls collapsed, and 80,000 Turkish cavalry were either drowned in the water because they were caught off guard, or were washed out of the Broken Leaf City by the sudden flood more than ten miles away.
Nearly 10,000 Turks and cavalry were lucky enough to escape in the flood, but they were immediately surrounded by the three-way army and wiped out on the spot.
By dusk and sunset, the Turgish had officially been declared dead. It's a pity that Broken Leaf City, one of the four towns in the Western Regions, was reduced to ruins after this battle.
However, it is also easy to rebuild Shattered Leaf City.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell, and the air was filled with a faint smell of blood and water, and the originally flat plateau Gobi was washed out by the ferocious flood and a deep ravine stretched out from the ruins of Broken Leaf City into the distance.
Nan Jiyun and Lei Wanchun led 50,000 Shence troops to pursue the fleeing Turgish stragglers, and at most tomorrow afternoon, the pursuing soldiers and horses can return to the camp, which means that the Turgish, a powerful country in the Western Regions, has completely withdrawn from the stage of history.
Zhang Xuan straddled the horse, stared into the distance, and said lightly, "Guo Xiang, tell Anxi Xiting, the Turks attacked and harassed my territory, robbed and killed my merchants, and offended the majesty of the Celestial Empire, and they have been exterminated≡. ”
"Yes. Obey the order. Guo Ziyi bowed and hugged his fists.
"And. Chuanfeng rushed to see me. ”
After Zhang Xuan finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and galloped towards the camp.
In the evening. Feng Chong galloped his horse at a gallop, and behind him were more than 100 guards.
Guo Ziyi personally greeted him at the gate of the Yuan, and when he saw Feng Chong galloping, he couldn't help but clench his fists and laughed, "Lord Feng, it's been a long time." I haven't seen him for a long time, but the demeanor of Lord Feng is still the same. ”
Guo Ziyi is currently not only the first minister under the emperor∑ but also in charge of government affairs, one of the seven ministers of the military department, and the emperor's father-in-law, the emperor's relatives and relatives. Feng Chong didn't dare to slack off, immediately turned over and dismounted, and replied with a smile, "Guo Xiang! Feng Chong is rude! Guo Xiang, His Majesty summoned Feng Mou, I don't know ......"
Feng Chong was actually a little uneasy in his heart.
Anthy's chaotic situation is not his fault. Because when he came to Anthy, the situation was already very bad. The Western Regions are ready to move. The big cannibals are eyeing the tiger, while the Turks are plundering the northwest court of Anbei, and they are arrogant.
After Feng Chong took office, he also did a lot of work. It's just that his time in Anxi is still too short, and many policies have not yet taken effect.
But for Feng Chong, reactive power is a mistake, at least, he has not really fulfilled the emperor's trust.
The emperor handed over Anxi to him, which naturally eliminated the situation that he could stabilize in the Western Regions. Lay a solid foundation for the emperor's westward expedition. Unfortunately, what he handed over to the emperor was not a favorable situation in the Western Regions.
It's not that the ability to seal Chong is not strong, but the complexity of the situation in the Western Regions is far beyond his expectations, and even beyond Emperor Zhang Xuan's expectations.
Guo Ziyi smiled and said, "Lord Feng doesn't have to worry too much, His Majesty summoned - in my opinion, it should be for the purpose of holding the Western Regions Zhuhu Worship Conference." ”
Feng Chong let out a sigh of relief. Nodding and said, "This matter, Feng Mou has already started to arrange this matter since he received His Majesty's edict. At present, the kings of the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions have gathered in Qiuzi City, waiting to worship His Majesty. Just ......"
Feng Chong wanted to speak and stopped.
According to the emperor's intention, this time the grand court meeting was held to summon the lords of the 36 countries of the Western Regions, not a simple court meeting, but to order the countries of the Western Regions to go to the country and turn them into states and counties under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. Some of the countries of the Western Regions have existed for hundreds or even thousands of years, and the throne has been passed down for more than ten generations - the emperor is undoubtedly going to destroy their kingdom this time, how can they agree.
Although the emperor promised to allow them to be on the verge of becoming kings, the loss of the title of the country and the independent military power was tantamount to the destruction of the country and the annihilation of the people. Feng Chong is well aware of the temperament of the Western Regions, and the emperor's order will be chaotic in the Western Regions.
Although the 36 countries of the Western Regions are all cities and are far from being able to pose a threat to the Chinese court, if the Western Regions are full of smoke and rebellion, it will be extremely unfavorable to the rule of the imperial court in the Western Regions.
Of course, Guo Ziyi knew the emperor's intentions, and he also knew what Feng Chong was, but Guo Ziyi didn't take these small countries in the Western Regions very seriously.
Tibet is strong enough, right? Turgish and Qarlu are strong enough, right? But in front of the Chinese army, they are all chickens and dogs, and the emperor will destroy them when he says they will be destroyed.
Guo Ziyi knows the emperor's personality too well. Since the emperor has made up his mind to truly turn the land of the Western Regions into the territory of the imperial court and manage it in a unified manner, it is doomed to the fate of the Western Regions Zhuhu.
"Lord Feng, Your Majesty is in the tent, please come in." Guo Ziyi waved his hand and led the way.
Entering the big tent, Feng Chong's face was solemn, he straightened his clothes, paid a big salute, and said angrily, "Ministers Feng Chong, meet Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" ”
"Feng Chong, let's get even." Zhang Xuan smiled indifferently, didn't talk nonsense, and said straightforwardly, "I summoned you over, there are two things. First, I decided to divide the Western Regions into two provinces, one was the Beiting, and the other was the hometown of Anxi and the land of Qarluq, and included them in the jurisdiction of Beiting Dao, and canonized the servant Gu Huaien as the governor of Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate and the governor of Beiting Town. Anxi Town, in addition to the original four towns of Anxi, will also govern the land of the nine surnames of Zhaowu on the Great and Small Bolu, Tocharo and Green Ridge∞ and will canonize you as the Metropolitan Governor of Anxi and the Governor of Anxi Town. ”
As soon as Zhang Xuan's words fell, Feng Chong bowed his head gratefully, "The minister bows to thank Your Majesty for his mighty grace!" ”
"Get up. You are my founding father, and I expect too much from you, so don't let me down. You are in Anxi, Fugu Huaien is in charge of Beiting, Yang Lian manages the hometown of Tubo, and the three of you are in charge of me, and in the next ten years, the stability and prosperity of the three towns is not empty talk. ”
"Your Majesty's grace, the ministers are grateful, there is nothing to repay, you should be loyal to Your Majesty with death!"
Zhang Xuan smiled lightly, "I don't need you to die to be loyal, as long as you are loyal to your duties, I will be very satisfied∞ in the past, I once said with my servant Gu Huai'en, for me to guard the border for the imperial court, ten years later, the three of you can be crowned the prince of the country, and the eldest son can be named the marquis!" ”
"I have clear rewards and punishments, and if you neglect your duties, I will not spare you!"
Zhang Xuan's voice suddenly became cold, Feng Chong's heart sank, and he bowed again.
……
……
"Second, I asked you to gather the kings of the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions, meet in the Qiuci Dynasty, go to the country name Binjue, and accept it as the state and county governance, how did you do?"
Zhang Xuan waved his hand and stared at Feng Chong.
"Your Majesty, the minister has summoned the lords of the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions to Qiuzi. It's just that the minister thinks that if His Majesty suddenly removes the name of Zhuhu in the Western Regions, I am afraid that it will cause turmoil in the Western Regions...... Please think twice and be cautious! Feng Chong gritted his teeth, and insisted on admonishing.
He was deeply favored by the emperor and was extremely respected, and he couldn't help but speak up with righteousness and a public heart.
"Do you think that if I remove their country name, the Western Regions will be chaotic?" Zhang Xuan smiled indifferently and said, "You are wrong, Feng Chong, I expect them not to dare to mess up, of course, I am not afraid of them messing up!" ”
"For the sake of the long-term peace and stability of the Western Regions, I have already decided that a long pain is better than a short pain, so let me cut this knife. Whoever dares to rebel and dare to fight against my Zhaofang, the Tubo and the Tuqi Shi people are examples! ”
"I marched to the west and entered the Western Regions, and first exterminated the Turks, just to give them a warning." Zhang Xuan smiled coldly, "Obey my Zhao order and the kingship of the imperial court, I can thin their princes and hereditary replacement, if they dare to fight, I will not be merciful when my army goes." ”
"Feng Chong, this is my attitude, you go back to Qiuci to tell the kings of the Western Regions∞ five days later, lead the army to arrive in Qiuci, and accept the worship of the Western Regions courts. Go ahead. Zhang Xuan waved his hand, his voice low but powerful. Moreover, there is an air of majesty that cannot be denied and is high up in the voice.
On the issue of Anxi, the emperor was so domineering and strong, Feng Chong was a little unexpected.
But he did not dare to hesitate and immediately took the order.
After Feng washed away, Tian Kexin walked out of the back tent and said with a slight smile, "Your Majesty is so anxious to get rid of the names of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions and turn them into prefectures and counties, is it because you are going to go west to the Green Mountains this year and fight against the Great Cannibals?" ”
"However ♀, the war cannot be delayed any longer. Although our army is invincible and victorious, hundreds of thousands of troops have moved and spent countless amounts of money and food on their burdens, and if they drag on without limit, we will bring down the treasury. ”
Zhang Xuan let out a sigh of relief, "The small countries in the Western Regions are not enough to be troubled" Qishi has been destroyed, Tubo is attached to the king, the Qarlu people are vassals, and the Hui is my arm, surrounded by heavy surrounding, these thirty-six small countries in the Western Regions have long existed in name only∞ so, I just don't want to waste any more time. ”
"I am going to Qiuzi to accept the pilgrimage, and I am scheduled to go back and forth within two months∞ I have decided to march to the Green Mountains in early August to recover the land of the nine surnames of Zhaowu, and at the latest in October or November, there will be a battle with the Great Cannibal!"
"If this battle is won, the Western Regions will be stable for decades∞ return to the Central Plains, and then conquer the barbarians in the south, and destroy the Bohai Zhuhu in the east."
"From this, my Chinese territory extends to Mobei in the north, to Piguo and Jiaozhou in the south, to the sea islands in the east, and to the west of the Green Mountains for 3,000 miles.
"In my lifetime, I will strengthen the country and strengthen the army to nourish the war with war, and create a majestic foundation of ♀ China for future generations, only I am China!"
Zhang Xuan's voice was generous, her words were full of strong confidence and infinite courage, Tian Kexin's pretty face turned red slightly, she stared at the emperor's face, and there was an inexplicable emotion flowing in her heart.
