Chapter 296: Return to the heart like an arrow
It's just that when he met Zhang Baoxiang, a fierce general in the Datong Army, Shi Lei didn't say anything on his face, but he was still a little embarrassed in his heart. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis is a great achievement in capturing Jieli, but this one in history, a little bit of a feeling of robbing other people's things.
However, Shi Lei's embarrassment didn't last long, the deputy manager saw Shi Lei, and he picked his nose and eyes, and he didn't seem to be very happy to see him, or he felt that Shi Lei was very unhappy that he had robbed them of their credit. Shi Lei didn't mean to have a hot face and a cold butt, he made a smile, did enough courtesy, and after he finished speaking, he politely retired. After all, the level of others is there, and Shi Lei can't be rude with others because of a little word.
Besides, if Shi Lei is not mistaken, this deputy general manager who is so happy doesn't need to teach himself a lesson, and he will do something himself.
When everyone was ready to go back happily to enjoy the benefits brought by the military exploits, this one simply exaggerated his merits, saying that the Yinan Khan came to attack with an army of 50,000, and he himself killed more than 10,000.
But Li Er's Flying Tiger Army was not a vegetarian, and reported the real situation, which startled Chang'an, and thought that something big was going to happen.
Whether Li Jing and his subordinates are unstable or stir up the surrounding situation, this is a great event.
One-third of the people of the Tang Dynasty are concentrated here, and if it is not good, the whole country will be in turmoil, so they immediately sent the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Ke to find out the truth.
What is the fate of Zhang Baoxiang after this, Shi Lei has no impression, but it won't be too good to think about, such a person, Shi Lei feels that there is no need to be angry with him, of course, there is no need to feel indebted, it is better not to have any intersection in the future.
After Shi Lei went back, he simply lived in seclusion, guarded the door, and did not have any communication with the Datong army.
At most, they drank and ate meat with the generals they knew well, or competed in the school field, so that they could also see the skills of themselves and their subordinates, so that they all thought that they could catch Jieli Khan was lucky.
The Chinese army led by Li Jing was a few days late. Along the way, they had to keep gathering the Turkic cavalry that had surrendered, and they also had to suppress the large and small tribes along the way, spreading their might.
A stopped, tame and obedient grassland is what Datang wants to see, but I don't want these guys who have been at both ends of the rat to make a mess here, which is obviously not in the interests of Datang.
Of course, it will not let them be too united, that is, how to plant some seeds of contradictions. Order in chaos is more beneficial to Datang, and there is no doubt that Datang is the order of this chaotic grassland, and it is to exist as an arbiter and rule-maker.
Shi Lei and the others stuffed Jieli Khan into Li Jing's Chinese army, even if this task was completely completed, the credit would naturally not be lost.
Shi Lei explained the entire pursuit process, and what he received was naturally full of applause.
Whether it is Li Daozong's generals along the way, or the generals of the Chinese army who have been fighting side by side with Shi Lei, they have long seen Shi Lei's strength, and they can't help but look at Shi Lei and them with admiration.
Dozens of people chased tens of thousands of people to fight, and they were beaten up or the elite archers of the nomads, which sounded like a bridge in a legendary story, but it really happened in front of their eyes. The Khan, who commanded tens of thousands of people, was even captured alive, which is an irrefutable fact.
There may be such and such factors in this, such as the fear of the Tang Army's large troops, being continuously beaten, knocking out all the courage, etc., but it is undeniable that Shi Lei and his gang are really very strong, the non-human kind.
Therefore, it is inevitable that everyone is a little respectful of Shi Lei, and they even recognize Shi Lei's name as a fierce general.
Vaguely, someone has put the title of "the first fierce general of the younger generation" on Shi Lei's head.
The older generation still has ruthless people like Wei Chigong, and these generals don't dare to put Shi Lei on the same level as them.
But at least among Shi Lei's peers, among the new generation of generals, when it comes to bravery, he is no match in the entire Tang Dynasty several times, so he slowly has the meaning of confirming this title.
Shi Lei didn't have the heart to pay attention to these, after completing the handover task, as the Chinese army rushed back to Dingxiang all the way majestically, Shi Lei's mind had already run back to Chang'an, and ran to his newlywed wife Cheng Chuyue and many villagers.
On this day, he finally seized the opportunity, Shi Lei simply followed Li Jing and applied for the task of reporting the news, took the manuscript about this battle that Li Jing had drawn up, and of course the paperwork of the victory, packed his bags, and took all the guards and animals under his command to run all the way to Chang'an.
Along the road, Shi Lei and the others even did the work of the Hongling messenger, but their speed was faster than the speed of eight hundred miles of expedited.
Their configuration is too extravagant, the three thousand-mile-level mounts take turns to change, and their physical strength is also very strong, and the people and horses have not rested much along the way, which is naturally a little faster.
Everywhere they went, they would shout "Victory!" Great victory! The army beheaded tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry, captured more than 100,000 men and women, and captured Jieli Khan. Great victory! Great victory! ”
This majestic procession rushed over, almost misleading some towns, at first glance I thought that they had come to rob, ordinary messengers, but there were not so many people together.
But the news was so heartening that it turned into a sea of cheers along the way. Especially in those states and counties that have been looted and even frequented.
These Tang people, who have a deep blood feud with the Turks and hate to eat their flesh, are absolutely sincerely happy, and can't help but applaud.
Shi Lei, who was like an arrow, had no intention of paying attention to these at all, although he had reason to enjoy these cheers, because in this battle, he had made great efforts and made great contributions, and even proudly said that he was enough to match the title of the number one hero.
In such a day and night rush, Shi Lei and the others rushed back to Chang'an City from the prairie in a few days.
Although they really want to run home directly, it's a pity that they can't do it, otherwise they will be killed as deserters, and there will be no reason to go.
So despite their reluctance, they still stood solemnly outside the Jinluan Palace, waiting for the emperor's summons.
The excited ministers are also waiting to listen to these heroes with their own ears, describe the detailed process of the battle on the spot, feel the hardships of the battle, and the happiness of success.
Although Shi Lei is still standing here, his mind still inevitably ran to his home not far away, although he has used flying pigeons to pass the book and report safety to his family, it is still not as good as them to really appear in front of his family, and it is happy to come.
Shi Lei and the others didn't have to wait too long before they were received, and it seemed that Li Er, like many ministers, was a little impatient to hear the good news from the front.
Even if they already had a vague understanding before, they would definitely not be as real as hearing Shi Lei, the person concerned, and the face-to-face account of the recognized hero.
Walking into the legendary Jinluan Palace, Shi Lei's mood was a little excited and curious, but also a little apprehensive and proud.
Trying his best to collect his mind, Shi Lei glanced at the situation in the hall and found that all the important ministers of the dynasty were basically gathered here, divided into two columns, civil and military, and stood on the left and right sides of the emperor.
Shi Lei's eyes were more focused on the pile of generals. He estimated that when he came back this time, he would be able to have a place here, no, there should be a standing ticket.
Because at this time, the Tang Dynasty was not like the Braided Dynasty, so that the ministers had to be called slaves, and they had to be the emperor's favorite people to be qualified to be this slave.
The monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty look much more equal than the braided dynasty, and they don't have to kneel down at every turn, everyone stands and becomes it.
Favored ministers, or those with inconvenient legs and feet, or those who are old, can still have a seat. (To be continued.) )
