At the moment of the collapse of the family, the battle report from the front also came back, and along with the war report, there was a huge head - Tulu's hideous head full of resentment and unwillingness.

The Turks were defeated, and when Tulu led 80,000 light cavalry to quietly detour through Qingsong Town, Li Jing launched a sneak attack on the Turkic camp that night, and the Turkic soldiers, who lost 80,000 troops and most of the strange people, did not support it for long before they were defeated.

After the end, Li Jing immediately rushed to Qingsong Town with the Tang army, but encountered the fleeing Turkic light cavalry halfway, intercepted and pursued the Turks, and only a few thousand men and horses escaped.

Li Jing was very surprised, he thought that the battle in Qingsong Town would last for a while, after all, there were dozens of strange people with strong combat power who followed these 80,000 light horsemen to the south together, even if Li Yuanba took reinforcements to defend the city, it should not be too easy, how could the Turks retreat so quickly?

Li Jing, who led the army close to the city of Qingsong Town, was surprised to find that the city wall of Qingsong Town had suffered almost no damage, and the place where the battle took place seemed to be some distance from the city wall, and the ground was full of corpses of Turkic soldiers.

It stands to reason that the Turkic soldiers are sharp, and the Tang army should defend the city and wait for themselves to come to support, so it is obviously unwise to go out of the city to meet the battle.

Could it be that the leader of the reinforcements sent by His Majesty is a straw bale? Or was it that Li Yuanba, the king of Zhao, ordered him to go out of the city to fight? Thankfully, the town of Green Pine was not lost.

The atmosphere was tense during the war, and if he approached with a large army without sending someone to make a sound, it might cause misunderstanding, and Li Jing, who had led the army for many years, naturally would not make such a mistake, and with doubts, Li Jing sent someone to come forward to communicate.

Hearing that the Turkic camp in front had also been taken by the Tang army, the soldiers and civilians in Qingsong Town all let out a burst of cheers, such as a complete failure of the Turkic invasion plan to the south.

When Li Jing entered Qingsong Town, Li Yuanba had already returned to Chang'an with the battle report and Tulu's head, and he thought that it was Zhao Yuan, the guard of Qingsong Town, who was in charge of Qingsong Town's military affairs at this time. It turned out that a young woman reported the battle to him. Zhao Yuan stood obediently behind.

The doubts in Li Jing's heart became even stronger. He felt that the woman in front of him was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, and frowned: "Are you?" ”

Haitang took off his helmet and smiled: "Uncle Li can't recognize me?" ”

Li Jing's eyes lit up suddenly, and he said in surprise: "You are Hou Junji's daughter, Begonia?" ”

Haitang nodded and smiled: "Yes, my father took me to visit Uncle Li's mansion a few years ago." ”

Li Jing stroked his beard and sighed: "At that time, you were wearing a daughter's outfit, and now I really can't recognize you in armor, why did you come here?" ”

Haitang replied: "Your Majesty asked me to bring 50,000 reinforcements to reinforce, and I met His Royal Highness King Zhao on the way, saying that it was the Turkic 80,000 cavalry who made a detour to Qingsong Town to sneak attack, so I brought people over." ”

"Your Majesty asked you to lead the army?" Li Jing looked suspicious. He knew that Haitang wanted to be a general who led the army, but this matter was ......

Zhao Yuan smiled: "General Li, don't underestimate Miss Begonia, she killed two Turkic strangers with her own hands." ”

"Shhh Li Jing was even more surprised when he heard this, he had seen the combat effectiveness of the Turkic Strange People, even if he himself was not an opponent, Haitang was able to kill two Turkic Strange People?

Listening to Haitang and Zhao Yuan tell what happened, Li Jing finally knew why the Turks were defeated so quickly, the 50,000 reinforcements sent by Li Er turned out to be more than a dozen strange people with infinite strength, Li Yuanba, who had no worries, broke out in a small universe and finally killed Tulu, and the black wolf that was as strong as a yak was also successfully subdued by Haitang with the help of Li Yuanba. The Turkic Odd Men were dead and wounded, and there were only two Odd Men who had run away with great speed not long after the battle began. In this battle, Datang won a complete victory.

Li Jing asked his soldiers to repair in Qingsong Town for one night, and the next day all the Tang troops in Qingsong Town were redeployed, leaving some as the defenders of Qingsong Town, and all the others were brought back to Juyong Pass, which is the gateway to the southwest of the Tang Dynasty.

Haitang also went to Juyong Pass with Li Jing, along the way she didn't hear about Hou Junji, she couldn't help but be a little anxious, Li Jing opened his mouth to persuade: "You don't have to worry too much, the captured Turkic Qi people have confessed that they have not caught the guards of Juyong Pass, your father should be hiding, and he should come back soon when he hears the news of the Turkic defeat." ”

Juyong Pass was in a mess after the war, and half of the city walls were destroyed by Tulu, which shows how tragic the battle situation was at that time, no one could deal with the fierce and abnormal Tulu without a fierce man like Li Yuanba, and it was not easy for the siege equipment to blast open the city gate, but he collapsed the city wall with the power of one person, this kind of combat power is really terrifying, although Haitang and the twelve strange black guards are also very powerful, but there is still a big gap compared with Tulu and Li Yuanba.

The city wall was seriously damaged, it was not easy to recover, the Turks were defeated and retreated, Li Jing could not always lead the troops to stay outside, and temporarily arranged a deputy general to be responsible for the construction and defense of Juyong Pass, so he led the troops back to Chang'an, and the reinforcements brought by Haitang were also brought back to Chang'an by Li Jing, leaving only thirty-three black guards to follow her in Juyong Pass and wait for the news of Hou Junji.

The people have just seen the collapse of the family, and suddenly heard the news of the victory of the Turkic defeat and retreat of the Tang army, and immediately cheered, and heard that the Turkic army went all the way south like a bamboo, and even the Juyong Pass was lost, and the whole Chang'an was panicked.

The dark clouds that shrouded the Taiji Hall also suddenly dissipated, Li Er had not yet come, and all the ministers were talking in whispers under His Highness.

"Your Majesty's movements are really fast, and the great families that have been inherited for hundreds of years have all been wiped out in one day." Fang Xuanling sighed in a low voice.

The eldest grandson Wuji squinted his eyes and said: "Lao Fang said cautiously, this is not Your Majesty's business, I heard that it was the family's hoarding of salt that aroused the anger of the people and the angry people rushed into the house, Your Majesty sent officers and soldiers to maintain it, but the people were too angry and the officers and soldiers could not stop the angry people." ”

Fang Xuanling shook his head and smiled bitterly, only real people would believe this.

Obviously, this matter should not be said much, Fang Xuanling just sighed with emotion, and asked another topic: "What does the eldest grandson think of the matter of the salt shop?" ”

This time the situation can be reversed entirely because of the salt shop suddenly opened by the Marquis of Jiayuan, and the plan to invite the king into the urn made the family lose its wealth and lose the hearts and fame of the people, and completely destroyed the opportunity for the family to turn over, but although the strategy is good, it is impossible to work if there is not enough salt, and the people who can't buy salt will point the spearhead of resentment at the court.

The eldest grandson Wuji said irresponsibly: "Since it is Wang Zixin, even if he conjures salt from the stone, I don't think it's strange." ”

Fang Xuanling still wanted to say something, and suddenly saw Li Shimin walking out of the back of the hall with a red face, so he stopped making a sound, straightened his robe and stood respectfully.
