From the beginning of the war, except for the feint, the Yanqi soldiers have not made any contributions, and they still have to be face-saving, and the dragon tooth is of course a little anxious.

Since it was a sneak attack, it was not surrounded on all sides, but only a weakly defended side was selected to attack, so the dragon tooth asked for the order to attack the other two city gates.

The ones who came in front were the foot soldiers, and the cavalry in the back, Yu Chi Baolin and Su Dingfang took the cavalry to the other two sides and killed them along the corners.

Lu Wentuo is facing Feng Daiwen, and now he is like ashes, and he knows that failure is a foregone conclusion.

"General! Everything is at fault, and please let the general go up and down Gaochang, Lu Wentuo is willing to be captured, and the general is not willing to increase the casualties among his soldiers. Lu Wentuo beat his spirit and shouted at Feng Daiwen, who was coming in formation.

"Haha! Jokes, the sons and daughters are still waiting to make meritorious contributions to the heads of the top of the people such as you, how can they be afraid of increasing casualties! Feng Daiwen laughed and raised his arms and shouted.

"Roar! Roar! Roar! The soldiers behind Feng Daiwen immediately raised their weapons and shouted in unison.

Feng Daiwen saw that Lu Wentuo's face turned from white to blue, and his eyes revealed despair, so he stretched out his hand and lifted it, and the soldiers behind him immediately stopped shouting, looking well-trained.

"I will give you a way to live, lay down your arms and surrender, only punish the worst, and the rest will not be blamed for the past." Feng Daiwen did not give the order to attack, and continued to speak loudly.

In fact, this is not only an attack on the heart, disintegrating the local fighting spirit, but also a language trap, who is the first evil, and it is not up to him to decide when the time comes.

"Is it a general's words?" Lu Wentuo struggled in his heart, exhaled a breath of air, and stared at Feng Daiwen in a daze and asked.

"This general is the general of the Western Regions marching army, and Feng Daiwen, the general of the expedition to the east, is here, so he naturally speaks!" Feng Daiwen also stared at Lu Wentuo's eyes and reported his identity.

"It turned out to be a Tang Dynasty horse, and Lu Wentuo naturally believed that my king was young and ignorant, and he was all bewitched by others, so he raised troops to resist, and asked the horse to let go." Lu Wentuo knew that he could not be spared, so he wanted to beg Feng Daiwen to let Lu Zhisheng go and leave a bloodline for their family.

"You can rest assured that Datang has no habit of killing prisoners, unless he seeks his own death in the future." Feng Daiwen nodded and proudly agreed.

"Thank you so much, don't thank you!" Lu Wentuo learned the etiquette of the Central Plains, bent over ninety degrees with his fists, and solemnly saluted.

"General Chuanben ordered, all lay down their weapons and surrender to the Tang Heavenly Soldiers." Ko Wentuo turned around and said loudly to the soldiers behind him, saying that he was the first to drop his weapon.

"General!" The two lieutenants behind Lu Wentuo couldn't help but cry out in tears, one was sad for the defeat, and the other was also confused by the unknown fate.

"Go and tell the others, both of you, come down! Go ahead! Lu Wentuo looked in a trance, waved his hand, and said dejectedly.

"General!" The two lieutenants wiped away their tears, gave a salute and left.

After the two left, Lu Wentuo looked up to the sky and sighed: "The disparity in strength between the two countries is huge, and it is not a crime of war. Lu Wentuo pulled out the waist knife around his waist and wiped it his neck, blood spurted out, and he fell to the sky.

"General!" More than a dozen of Ko Wentuo's personal guards also took up arms and killed themselves, and the other soldiers who did not have the courage or were not loyal to him surrendered on the ground.

"They are all loyal and righteous people, so bury them alone!" Feng Daiwen nodded and instructed the guard.

As soon as these things were ordered, someone naturally did it, and the rest of the people also cooperated with each other to collect the prisoners.

When Feng Daiwen led people to the palace, the news of the defeat in front had already come, and Koji Zhisheng took several ministers and concubines and knelt on the ground respectfully.

"The sinner Koji Zhisheng descended to Yu Tang today, and asked the general of Shangguo not to embarrass the people." Koji Zhisheng held the seal in both hands, held it high above his head, and said in a trembling voice.

The guards behind him were all empty-handed, the palace maids, eunuchs, etc. were trembling with fright, and some of them kept crying, but they didn't dare to cry out loud, biting their lips deadly.

"I will promise you to surrender, as for whether you are guilty or not, I have to wait for the Holy Lord's ruling, and now I also ask King Gaochang to move to another courtyard and escort you to Chang'an another day." Feng Daiwen took the seal, handed it to Tie Wei, and packed it in a box.

Then vacate a courtyard, Koji Zhisheng and the concubines all lived in, and the outside was guarded by a thousand elite soldiers, as for the ministers, those with high official positions were fortunate to have Chang'an and his party, and those with low official positions were sorry, so they were locked up first.

In the palace, of course, the guards led people to confiscate, count, classify all property, and register it, all of which had to be handed over to the treasury.

One receiving, one shot, each doing its own thing, it's not that you want to deduct it, or you will wait for the impeachment of the supervising imperial history.

Although Li Shimin asked him to make a decision in the Western Regions, he still had to have the attitude he should have, and the rank was handed in, and as for how much to transport back, it was up to Li Shimin to decide.

All the property in Liaoxi, the troops Feng Daiwen can be transferred at will, that belongs to government affairs, and it should be in his charge, he only needs to list it later, and the Western Regions belong to the expedition, which is the spoils of war, and it cannot be said in the same words.

Gao Chang fought down, and this was the beginning of his busyness, counting the prisoners, belongings, and cleaning the battlefield, and he was busy until noon, which was done.

Then he began to settle the people, sent people from Gaochang language, read out the notice, Gaochang officially became a part of the Tang Dynasty, of course, the old rules, the rich, the official, none of them can be let go, all of them are arrested, and then the house is raided, and the rest are bitter people, and it is much easier to manage.

The notice also mainly said that Gaochang had joined Datang, and Datang would take the people to live a good life, as long as they were obedient, the tax revenue would be reduced by three percent this year.

It's good, it's not as good as the actual benefits, as soon as I heard about the tax cut, the people became obedient, and I couldn't wait to ask, why didn't Datang call earlier.

Later, Feng Daiwen customized the route, by Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, and Wei Chi Baolin, respectively, with people and horses, holding the documents of Koji Zhisheng, and taking the minister of Gaochang, to recruit Jiaohe, Tiandi and Nanping City, three big cities, and fourteen small counties: Hengjie, Yongchang, Wuban, Shichang, Anle, Anchang, Yong'an, Xunlin, Gaoning, Ningrong, Weishen, Linchuan, Jiuquan, Longquan City; Zhenshu four: Dongzhencheng, Dujin, Yancheng and Liupo City.

Every county town cleared out all the officials, wealthy merchants, and landlords, and then registered the people, distributed the land, and left a few hundred soldiers to exercise military control.

Fortunately, the vast majority of Gaochang people are descendants of the Han people, and they can basically understand the Tang dialect, and they have distributed land, making it easier to accept the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

Feng Daiwen also made this point in the announcement, welcoming them back to the rule of the motherland, and now it is their real home, and the fallen leaves have returned to their roots.
