Chapter 173: The Prince Returns to the Dynasty
"Meet my father!" Li Chengqian strode up to the Taiji Hall.
Li Chengqian was covered in dust, his handsome face was a little tired, and his eyes were full of bloodshots, and he looked like a dusty servant.
Li Shimin put him in place.
Li Chengqian has changed, changed a lot. The skin has changed from scholarly white to bronze, and the gentle temperament is gone, replaced by a strong face, like a soldier, more decisive and fierce!
Murderous! This is the murderous aura that has returned from the battlefield.
Li Shimin sensitively noticed this transformation, and he nodded approvingly, this is the prince, heir, and prince of the Tang Dynasty in his mind.
"Qian'er, do you have a harvest?" Li Shimin smiled with satisfaction.
Under the gaze of everyone, Li Chengqian calmly stood up and said: "Father, the sons and daughters have gained countless things from this trip, but the biggest gain is that they understand that it is really difficult to march and fight...... understood the hard-won achievements of the Tang Dynasty, and also understood the ferocity of the enemy...... I better understand the huge dedication of the Datang soldiers, if there are no Datang soldiers, there will be no peace in Chang'an at all, they are the heroes of Datang, and they are very worthy of our admiration. Sister-in-law, champion Hou said that Wenzhi and martial arts are the two iron fists of the Tang Dynasty and are indispensable. In this regard, Erchen deeply agrees. ”
Listening to Li Chengqian's heartfelt emotion, Li Shimin laughed with satisfaction: "It seems that I am right to let you go through it!" Tell us about your experience. ”
"Actually, there's not much to say!" Li Chengqian thought for a while and said: "When Erchen arrived in Shuofang, the champion Hou was training in the military camp, and he really forgot to ask for merit as his father said. ”
"This kid!" Li Shimin burst into laughter again.
"Erchen canonized a meritorious soldier according to his order! Halfway through the celebration banquet, Erchen just asked if there was any war in the near future, and the champion Hou said that there were still three Turkic tribes in the Shuobei grassland, and if they didn't clear it, they would lose their trust. ”
Li Shimin said strangely: "Dishonesty in others? To whom did he break his promise? ”
The Manchu civil and military also listened carefully.
Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Untrustworthy Changle! Champion Hou and Changle have an agreement, the day Changle learns exquisite riding skills is the time to ride the horse in the northern grassland without worry. At that time, Changle riding was about to be completed, and there were three Turkic tribes belonging to the Turks on the grassland! Champion Hou seemed to be very afraid of losing his trust in Changle, and after speaking, he asked the scout camp and sniper battalion to hunt the Turkic scouts and light and dark sentinels. After the banquet, an army of 60,000 troops was dispatched, and the troops were divided into three routes, and the three Turkic tribes were wiped out before dawn. ”
The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all dumbfounded, just because Princess Changle rode a horse, and Luo Tong wiped out the three tribes of the people, this strange reason can be regarded as the best in ancient and modern times.
Li Shimin laughed: "This kid loves Changle so much, which is enough to prove that my vision is not bad, and I don't see the wrong person!" "In this era of male superiority and inferiority of women, there are very few people like Luo Tong who attach importance to their wives, Changle is his Li Shimin's baby daughter, Luo Tong is like this, he is satisfied to the extreme.
"And then?" Li Shimin was full of interest.
Li Chengqian said: "Then the sons followed them every day to kill people, whether it was Jieli or Tuli tribes, they killed one when they encountered one, and robbed one when they encountered one. About three or four hundred thousand were killed before and after! There were also more than 200,000 prisoners. ”
The Tang monarchs and ministers all gasped, and they were all suppressed by Luo Tong's generosity.
"At first, there was a reason for going to war, but later I didn't even look for a reason, and directly told the Turks, 'Lao Tzu is in a bad mood today', 'Lao Tzu is in a good mood today, kill some people to have fun', or 'Lao Tzu likes to see that you Turks are unlucky and have the ability to fight'...... In short, the reasons are varied. Fang Yiai said that he was the most successful gentleman of all time. ”
Kill if you're in a good mood or if you're in a bad mood...... When the Turks encountered such a murderer, they really poured mold for eight lifetimes. It is Li Shimin who also deeply agrees with the evaluation of "the most successful gentleman in history".
In this way, there is no Turkic person in the Shuobei steppe for a hundred miles. They all ran faster than the rabbits on the prairie. According to the Turks, horses did not dare to enter the country, lest they would be targeted by 'unreasonable' spirits. No one killed, he played a new trick again, wrote a letter to blackmail Tuli and Jieli, and forced the two Khan kings to give gifts! ”
Fang Xuanling exclaimed: "Did Tuli and Jieli agree?" ”
Li Chengqian said: "I agreed, a horse and a cow, 50,000 horses, a lot of horses, and all of them will be in hand before it is too late." ”
The crowd was horrified and amused!
Looking at his father with a shocked and shocked face, Li Chengqian was also quite proud, because he also had his credit here.
"In this way, he used forceful means to scare all the Turks away, and in his words, the Turks are all cheap bones and lack of cleanup."
The shocked mouths of the Manchu civil and military couldn't close their mouths, which wiped out the people at every turn. The means are not ordinary ferocious, but in the face of such ferocious and humiliating methods, Tuli and Jieli obediently handed over the cattle and horses, which is really ...... Served Luo Tong's squirrel.
The eldest grandson Wuji sighed with emotion: "Transferring the champion Hou to the north is really the most ideal choice. The Turks are like insatiable hungry wolves, they are fierce and greedy, and they have no moral justification. And the champion Hou does not play cards with common sense, and his means are extremely fierce, and he is a tiger that is more ferocious than a hungry wolf. The hungry wolf is insatiable, and in the face of the fierce tiger that is pressing them, they can only obediently bow their heads and obey their orders. There are many famous generals who have conquered outside the Saiwai, but he is the only one who is like the champion Hou who scares and subdues Jieli and Tuli. ”
Li Shimin also came over suddenly, this Turk has always eaten hard rather than soft, and when he encountered a hard stubble tiger like Luo Tong, he was naturally eaten to death.
After figuring out this link, Li Shimin laughed along: "I have Luo Tong and Luo Qingxiao in the Tang Dynasty, so why worry about the arrogance and rampant Turks. ”
Li Jing said brightly: "Now that the tiger is still recuperating in the mountains, it is making such a noise. When the time comes, the tiger will come out, and it will be the end of the Turks. It is really a great blessing for my Datang to have a character like the champion Hou. ”
Fang Xuanling said: "In this way, it is not difficult to understand Tuli's abnormal behavior, he mistakenly thought that my Datang was targeting him, so he agreed to our harsh conditions and gave us a big gift." Champion Hou is like an indestructible divine blade hanging over the head of the Turks, he is in Shuofang, and it is difficult for Jieli and Tuli to sleep peacefully! His Majesty let him sit in Shuofang, which is really clever. ”
Li Shimin, who was in love, listened to Fang Xuanling's last words, felt comfortable from head to toe, raised his head complacently and laughed: "When I appointed him as the governor of Xiazhou, it was to reciprocate his hatred of foreign races...... I'll just say it! I've always been a meritocrat, and it turns out that my vision is still okay. He glanced at Li Chengqian, who was particularly unsatisfied, and asked, "Qian'er, why did you come back?" Don't mess around with that kid anymore? ”
Li Chengqian said embarrassedly: "Shuofang's ghost place really can't stay anymore, and Erchen has come back." ”
Li Shimin was stunned!
Li Chengqian said with a disgusted face: "Those horses, cattle and sheep are two million, Shuofang has become a pasture, and it stinks every day, if it is summer, it is estimated that people will be smoked and fainted." The champion Hou asked his father to send someone to pick him up in the way of eight hundred miles, and he said that his father's people were less than half a month, so he told the old man to return to his hometown, and Huaiyu and they all said the same. ”
Everyone thought that a group of young people actually said something about "saying goodbye to the old and returning to their hometown", and they didn't laugh!
Li Shimin smiled happily: "In order to prevent this group of 'gentlemen' from coming back to cause harm, the Du branch quickly went to count and take over. ”
"Obey orders!" The degree branch is still listed.
"Father, the son was forced to bring back 30,000 ploughing cattle and 100,000 horses, just outside Chang'an City."
"That's a good thing! Spring ploughing is imminent, and ploughing cattle are most needed. ”
"There are also 50,000 Turkic captives, please also ask my father to settle them together."
"Fang Aiqing and Du Aiqing quickly dealt with this matter."
"Yes!"
"A group of young men under twenty have forced Jieli and Tuli into such a situation and done such an earth-shattering thing, it's amazing!" Li Shimin glanced at Li Chengqian with satisfaction, and then said with a smile: "Qin Aiqing, Cheng Aiqing, Li Aiqing, Fang Aiqing, and Du Aiqing have taught well and contributed a lot. ”
Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin, Li Jing, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui curled their mouths a little proudly, but they responded respectfully: "Your Majesty is wonderful, children are not more important, there is a big harm, there is a big harm...... Hehe......"
At the end, several people couldn't help laughing.
made everyone present roll their eyes and secretly despise: "Virtue! At the same time, it was a little sour, and I realized that it is also a thing to be proud of to have an outstanding child.
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui glanced at each other, and they both saw a touch of relief and happiness in the eyes of both parties.
Fang Yiai and Du He were originally a raccoon dog, and their hearts were broken as fathers, but because they met Luo Tong, the two changed one after another, and each found himself again, and now he can still serve the country. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui's father were greatly relieved. For Luo Tong, who took his son on the right path, they are grateful from the bottom of their hearts.
"That's all for today, retreat!" Li Shimin waved his hand and motioned for Li Chengqian to follow, and the father and son went straight to the Lizheng Hall to share the joy with the eldest grandson.
