Chapter 62 Northwest Shooting the Wolf 15

Li Jing didn't say anything and waited, Li De said knowingly, "Boss, this Jia Yi is my backing army Sima." , I specially asked the second brother to come, in fact, he is one of the hundred horses,. I believe that it is better for him to leave this matter to him than for us to arrange it ourselves. ”

The name of Baiqi Li Jing knows too well, on the surface it is the army, but secretly it is a secret agent. Li De, who didn't think about it, was so good at playing, and asked Li Shimin to take the initiative to install spies, too, the back army is an army after all, and no emperor will really be relieved if he is so big-minded that Li Jing's eyes flashed a hint of understanding, Li De is not stupid, and taking the initiative to confess in this way can gain His Majesty's trust more than passive exploration. This hand is beautifully played.

Li Jing said, "Your Highness is thoughtful, so let's do it"

Li De ordered, "Jasma,. This is the heirloom jade seal, you will immediately take someone to send it back to Chang'an day and night, and personally deliver it to Your Majesty, do you understand?"

Jia Yi took out a painting from his arms, checked the pattern on it, and confirmed that it was the jade seal of the country, and replied, "Thank you for your humble position, Lord Wang, the chief manager is considerate." I will return to Chang'an now. Please rest assured. ”

Li Jing nodded and said, "Okay, there is Lao Jiasima, I will have a thousand cavalry with you, one person and two horses, day and night." There is no mistake"

Jia Yi "obeyed"

Jia Yi took the order, and a thousand cavalry were ready to go, "raise the banner and go straight to Chang'an, and those who dare to block the advance of the army will be killed"

"Nuo" 1,000 cavalry galloped out of the royal court and rushed towards Chang'an.

Early the next morning, Li Jing gathered everyone to discuss the matter at the big tent of the Chinese army.

"Meet the Chief"

Li Jing "En, no courtesy, sit down"

"Horse Week"

"The Lower Officials Are In"

"Please Ma Changshi report on the results of our army's operation."

Although Ma Zhou was a civilian official, he had excellent coordination ability and administrative ability to handle all the affairs of the Beiwei Army in an orderly manner, and his performance in the rear was appreciated by Li Jing, and he mostly handed over the logistics management of the army to Ma Zhou to deal with.

Ma Zhou thought for a while and said, "Chief Qiqi, after overnight investigation, in terms of battle damage, our army died more than 20,000 people in this battle, more than 10,000 people who were seriously injured and could not fight again, and countless minor injuries. Those with minor injuries can regain their combat effectiveness. In terms of war profits, our army occupied Dingxiang, Baidao, and Yinshan Wangting one after another, capturing a total of 80,000 Turkic soldiers, 150,000 war horses, 2 million deniers of grain and grass, and 100,000 Han slaves near the royal court. Please take a look at it," after speaking, he handed the paperwork in his hand to Li Jing.

Li Jing read the document "All the soldiers, after yesterday's battle of Yinshan, we completely recovered a large area south of Yinshan, cut off the long-term threat of the Turks to the north of our country, and captured the Jieli Khan alive, all the contributions are indispensable, the general manager will give you a truthful record on the merit table, will not drop a single person, the general manager is ready to return to the dynasty as soon as the wind and snow passes, leaving 10,000 cavalry as a stable local military force, and the rest of the army will all return to the south,. Do you have any other opinions? ”

Li Ji said, "Dare to ask the chief administrator, what about those Turkic captives?" And all the 100,000 Han slaves were sent back? ”

Wei Chigong said, "I mean it, just cut it all down, it's a waste of food to keep these barbarians." Hannu brought it back. ”

Li Daozong said, "No, killing prisoners will hurt Tianhe,"

Ma Zhou said, "The subordinates are worried that if they are all brought back, then these two million deniers of food will not be enough to eat, because these 80,000 Turkic captives can be given a small amount of food, and they will not die of hunger, but we still have an army of nearly 60,000, 100,000 Han slaves, as well as war horses, cattle and sheep, and people eat horses and chew every day, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to survive this bad weather." ”

Li De didn't speak all the time, he kept thinking that the battle was over, but the prisoners behind it, the Han people's resettlement, and the fact that after they left, this steppe would not fall into the hands of other nomads, it was necessary to completely fight the Turks, so that they would not dare to touch this land in a short time. You can't run one here and cheapen the other.

Li Jing thought to himself that this gang of killing materials, there was not a good idea, either kill or bury, this captive and Han slave Li Jing really wanted to bring them all back, just so many prisoners of war in Chang'an to give prisoners to the emperor is a merit, not to mention that there are 100,000 Han people, turned his head to see Li De in contemplation, and immediately said to his heart, "His Royal Highness King Wei, what is the best plan?" ”

Li De thought for a while, stood up and said, "Chief, I think so, the morale of the army is now rising, and if the Jieli Turkic tribes are defeated, they will definitely be in panic, so they will give me the opportunity to expand the profits of the war." The chief governor can send orders to all the Tang troops to attack all the large and small tribes of the Turks, and continue to collect horses, cattle and sheep. Rescue more Han slaves, meet those who block the heavenly soldiers, immediately behead, capture Turkic men and women, in short, how the Turks treated our Han people before, we will return it tenfold and hundredfold. Give somebody a taste of his own medicine. In this way, everyone can not only have more military merits, but also gather more grain and grass materials, which will definitely support the return to the dynasty and let the political hall be responsible for the placement. It can also play a role in deterring the grassland tribes, so as not to let other tribes take advantage of us after we leave. ”

Li Ji clapped his hands and applauded after hearing this, and said, "I agree with His Highness's plan, we defeated Jieli this time, it is the time to recover all the lost territory and rescue our slaves, the Turks have repeatedly gone south for decades, and the looting is very heavy, my Tang Dynasty boy should give the Turks a long memory at this time,"

Wei Chigong also applauded, "Yes, that's how it should be, kill the world upside down, and export evil anger." ”

Li Daozong said, "It's good, it's just that what to do with the Tuli Khan, this will defeat Jieli, and at the same time, it will also indirectly help him eliminate the enemy." Tuli must be watching from the sidelines, waiting for us to leave and will come out to pick up the bargain immediately. ”

Li Ji said, "Then go to Your Majesty, officially give him the name of Great Khan, and know the benefits, so that he does not dare to anger the Tang Dynasty easily." ”

Ma Zhou: "I have a plan, the general manager can write to the Turki Khan, invite him to meet in Yinshan, we are making a gesture, let him take a good look at my Tang Jian'er, I believe that when he sees the Turkic prisoner and Jieli Khan become our prisoner, he will not have the heart to offend my Tang Dynasty in a short time." After all, the Turki Khan has always been friendly with our dynasty, and it is not appropriate to attack at this time. ”

Li Jing nodded, "If Tuli can come, it means that he accepts the jurisdiction of our dynasty, if he doesn't come or if he violates Yin Fengyang and gives us an excuse to attack, this general manager will just solve the Turkic foreign invasion once and for all, and achieve the feat of Wei Huo back then." ”

"Very well, just do so, and send a message to Turi at once"

"Next, leave 30,000 people to guard the camp, and order several other Tang troops, Su Dingfang, Wei Chigong, Zhang Baoxiang, Zhang Gongjin and others to lead their headquarters to sweep the grassland and rescue the Han people."

"Obedience"

The issuance of Li Jing's order made many generals who had not made meritorious contributions in this battle very happy, the chief of the secret path was really good at being a man, Li Jing, Li Daozong, Li Ji, and even Li De had already reaped the benefits in this battle. The first three are all commanders all the way, and they have a share of the credit. Li De took the lead in chasing Jieli from Dingxiang, and was finally captured alive by him. When it is the first work,. So there is no need for these people to earn work.

Chai Shao, the head of Jinhe Road, Qin Shubao, Xue Wanche, the head of the Changwu Road March, Duan Zhixuan and others have not reaped any benefits, and the wind and waves along the way are as calm as if they have traveled to Mongolia. , After receiving Li Jing's order, he turned on the mode of grabbing merit, did not grab the meat and left a little soup, all of them were full of energy and desperately swept the entire grassland, for a time the grassland was full of smoke, countless tribes of all sizes suffered, there was no resistance, fortunately, at least the Tang army did not rush to kill, and could still survive, once there was a stubborn resistance, it would be ruthlessly attacked by the Tang army, men, women, old and young, horses, cattle and sheep were all spared. It's all turned into numbers in the credit book. The Turkic tribes were forced to migrate north, far away from the Tang Dynasty's sphere of influence. They were also cornered by the Han people like the former Xiongnu, and they sang Xiongnu ballads one after another:

The loss of my Qilian Mountain will make my six animals restless.

?????????????????? I have lost my mountains, and my women have no color.

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

The Great Horde of the Turki Khan

"I am the envoy of the head of the march of the Tang Dingxiang Road, and I have something to meet with the Turki Khan, please report on my behalf."

In order to be able to fight against Jieli, Tuli Khan befriended the Tang Dynasty in the first year of Zhenguan, and secretly transmitted information to Li Shimin. Of course Tuli is happy, such a good thing is hard to come by, someone will defeat Jieli for him without doing it himself, and when Jieli is defeated, isn't he a big sweater. Hearing that Li Jing had sent an envoy over, he immediately came in to receive him.

"The officials under Li Jing, the head of the march of the Tang Dingxiang Road, have seen the Tuli Khan. Our Tang army has broken through the Yinshan Royal Court and captured Jieli alive. In accordance with the order of the Grand Governor, he invited the Turki Khan to meet with the Grand Governor at the Yinshan Turkic Court to discuss the matters after the battle, and asked the Khan to go. ”

Tuli sighed in surprise, "I didn't expect the Tang Dynasty to send troops so cleanly, it has only been a few days since the Yinshan Royal Court was broken through, and Jieli was captured alive, which made Ben Khan admire." Please ask the messenger to reply to the chief manager of Li, and Ben Khan should go in person. ”

?“ Thank you Khan,. This is the next turn, waiting for you. ”

"There is a messenger of labor, someone has come to send the messenger out"

After the envoy left, the generals under the Tuli Khan jumped out in the big tent and said, "Great Khan, then Li Jing invited you to Yinshan, isn't there a conspiracy, do you really want to go?" ”

Tuli said affirmatively, "You have to go, do you think Li Jing is looking for me to discuss, he is testing Ben Khan." , think I can't see it. If Ben Khan vetoes it, believe it or not, today's is our tomorrow. ”

His subordinates said, "Khan." Jieli was captured, you are the great Khan of the Turks, we are not Jieli's stupid, we lost Dingxiang in just a few days, and then broke the royal court, and were captured alive, as long as the Tang army dares to come, we must make them look good. ”

Tuli shook his head and said, "Fool, you don't know the strength of the Tang Army, Ben Khan went to Chang'an to see the sixteen guards of the Tang Dynasty, all of them are brave and good at fighting, not worse than our soldiers at all, at most the cavalry is a little worse, but the Tang Dynasty is strong, the soldiers' weapons and armor are far better than ours, don't you know the horizontal sword and Mingguang armor." What's more, Datang only took so much time to defeat the invincible Jieli, although Jieli is hateful, but his strength is not bad, even the most elite Golden Wolf Army has been defeated, we don't need to bet our lives to test the Tang Army's steel knife. Needless to say, just decide. ”
