"Of course you can, since you have been on trial for half a year, then you can arrange it as appropriate, all of them are innocent people, and when it is finished in the future, it will be arranged in the Holy Invitation." Li Ji nodded in agreement, they are all children of good families, so they are naturally relieved to use.

After conquering Khotan, Feng Daiwen immediately began to divide his troops, with 50,000 people as a team, combined with infantry and cavalry, and divided two partial divisions to attack the small country, Duan Zhixuan took the rest of the men and horses to attack the fortification.

He also asked Yanqi and Qiuzi's 20,000 people to assist Su Dingfang in attacking Shule, and the four roads of men and horses marched together, pushing all the way, whether it was a city, a cottage, or a horse bandit, all of them were exterminated.

At the same time, Cheshi, Da Wan, Xiao Wan, Wusun, and Da Yue raised troops at the same time to attack the cities near them, and for a time, the entire Western Regions were in turmoil, and the cities were broken every day.

Several small countries have received some support from Feng Daiwen, and sold the broken copper and iron captured last year to them at a low price, although in Feng Daiwen's eyes, they can still equip a large number of soldiers, much better than the hostile countries, so at the beginning of the war, they have the upper hand and continue to achieve results.

This time the morale is even higher, because there was an agreement before, whoever is beaten down will be whom.

Since the Tang Dynasty launched an attack from the other side, they did not have to worry about the safety of their hometown, so these small countries frantically recruited troops to attack the periphery.

And now all the countries of the Western Regions have known about the Tang Dynasty's large-scale invasion, but there is no way, there are those who abandon the city and flee, there are those who surrender to the city, and there are those who unite to resist.

But in the face of absolute strength, everything is in vain, once more people gather, Datang will call for reinforcements, gather one or two armies to attack together.

If it is a fortified city, then the artillery serves, and in the face of hot weapons, all struggles are in vain, and there is no other way except to be blown up and scattered.

If it weren't for the fact that there weren't many bombs made, Feng Daiwen would even want to bomb all the way and push the region to the extreme.

The battle at the front was going well, and the rear was busy receiving and managing, and Feng Daiwen and Li Ji were divided into two ways before they were busy.

Nearly a thousand young people were assigned to manage the counties, accompanied by hundreds of Turkic warriors, hundreds to a thousand Japanese slave death squads as minions, constantly cleaning up the nobles and officials.

Then the obedient people were promoted to be small officials, the number of people was counted, the planning was reasonable, and the villages and land were arranged, not one in the east and one in the west as before.

After the planning, they basically relied on the city and oasis to reclaim farmland and grow food.

With a steady stream of grain from the Central Plains as logistics, there was no worries at the front, and the attacking men and horses had food and drink, and they attacked hard, and there was enough food in the rear for relocation.

What's more, several countries have been destroyed and a large amount of property has been confiscated, and the only regret is that no matter which country has not much grain in stock, it still has to rely on the Central Plains in a short period of time, and it is impossible to achieve self-sufficiency.

On the fourth day of the fifth month of the seventh year of Zhenguan, Su Dingfang, An Yuanshou, Li Dexian, Hou Lei, broke through the three cities of Ruoqiang and Ruoqiang, and then destroyed Huhu and Shan.

At the beginning of May, Chi Baolin, Feng Daihuo, and Liu Renshi, the eighth lieutenant, attacked Ronglu, and broke it in one day, breaking the first ten days, breaking the Qule in the twelfth day, breaking the Pishan in the fifteenth, and destroying the four countries in 17 days.

From the seventh day of May to the eighteenth day of June, Qi Bi He Li, Xue Rengui, Cheng Chumo, Cheng Chuliang, Lianpo Xiye, Puli, Yinai, Shache, Weitou, Wensu Six Kingdoms.

On May 11, due to the artillery slowing down the journey, Duan Zhiyuan, Xi Junmai, Wang Xuance, and others arrived in Loulan a few days later, Loulan City desperately resisted, Duan Zhixuan used artillery to open the city wall, and then the army entered, but none of Loulan surrendered, and the whole city resisted.

The army fell into street fighting, and it took three full days for 50,000 troops to completely occupy, and there were more than 30,000 soldiers and civilians in Loulan, and in the end only 2,000 women and children survived.

Datang lost 3,000 casualties, Duan Zhixuan didn't want to leave the seeds of revenge, and ordered the Japanese slave death squad to kill more than 2,000 people.

Duan Zhixuan, who was in a bad mood, next attacked Yutou Kingdom, killing most of them, and then frightened the five countries of Wensu, Yuli, Gumo, Beilu, and Wu Greedy to gather together to resist.

Duan Zhixuan had no choice but to recruit Su Dingfang, Qi Bi He Li, and attacked for three days before attacking, but fortunately, the more than 20,000 defenders killed this time were all soldiers, and the casualties of the people were not much.

The Tang Dynasty marched all the way, frightened the five countries of Zi, Beilu Houguo, Shan Huan, Pu and Pu Houguo abandoned the city and fled, leading the whole clan towards the cold place in the north.

At the same time, after months of hard fighting, Dawan, Wusun and other countries ended the war in mid-October, and also defeated five countries, including Anxi, Kangju, Kokand, Kanjuti, and Wuyishan, and occupied a lot of territory, and all the nine surnames of Zhaowu retreated into Guishan.

According to the agreement, the two sides took the Green Ridge as the boundary, to the east, all belonged to the Tang Dynasty, and to the north, separated from Dayue by a small piece of desert, so far, the war in the Western Regions came to an end.

On the one hand, Feng Daiwen spread the good news, and on the other hand, he arranged to establish a defense in the Green Ridge, and set up a cannon port in the Green Ridge, and twenty cannons blocked the road from Central Asia, and there will be a lot more in the future.

The desert with the boundary of the Great Moon is also to establish a military city, and from then on, east of the Green Ridge, there is no other country, and the peninsula will be destroyed in the future, Tubo, and the military defense line of the Tang Dynasty will appear.

The town guard of the Green Ridge is temporarily served by Duan Zhixuan and Xue Rengui, and the new city that is still under construction is Su Dingfang and Cheng Chuliang.

The rest of the personnel did not withdraw their troops, and took advantage of the last good weather to clean up the entire Datang occupation area with troops, and all horse thieves and mountain thieves were all arrested and reformed through labor.

It is believed that in a few years, the desert of the Gobi Desert in the Western Regions will gradually decrease, and the desert will not expand like in later generations.

At least under the governance of the Tang Dynasty, the Western Regions Road will not be cut down indiscriminately, Feng Daiwen has a strong order, the Western Regions Road is not allowed to cut down trees at will, it must be approved by the government, and if you cut one, you must plant ten trees.

More than 10 small countries, more than 30 cottages, five horse thieves, seized gold, silver, jewelry, jade and other property piled up more than 700 carriages, escorted by Li Ke with dragon jade beads, Xi Junmai escorted with 10,000 elite soldiers, and was transported to Chang'an, accompanied by the kings, princesses, ministers, and Li Chunfeng of these small countries, who also went back to build cannons for Li Shimin.

"Refreshing!" Seeing Li Ke and the others away, looking at a large group of dejected kings and ministers of small countries in the Western Regions, Li Ji exhaled and shouted refreshedly.

"That is, it is worth celebrating that such a result can be achieved in half a year of battle." Feng Daiwen's spirit was shocked, and he said with a smile.

"Now that winter is approaching, Wei Guo can finally breathe a sigh of relief." Li Ji looked at Feng Daiwen, who had not rested well for many days, and said with relief.
