The fourteenth day of the tenth lunar month of the Tang Dynasty Tianbao is the day when the Anxi army enters the city to offer victory, and the entire Chang'an has been boiling on this day, since the dawn of the day!

The hundred officials and people of Chang'an are not the kind of people who have never seen the world, and it is not unseen that the border army has never seen it in the past, for example, last year Gao Xianzhi escorted the captives of Tuqishi, Tubo, Shushiguo, and Shiguo to Chang'an to offer victory;

For example, in the past year or two, An Lushan would hold hundreds or thousands of captives of the Khitan and Xi tribes to present to the emperor.

But this time the Anxi Army's dedication is completely different, and the meritorious service is praised by the Son of Heaven as the first miracle since the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty; The scale of 8,000 Anxi soldiers, 1,000 envoys from 36 countries west of the Green Ridge, and 3,000 prisoners of food is also unprecedentedly large.

But what excited and excited the subjects of Chang'an the most was the gold, silver, jewelry and other trophies brought by the Anxi army, carried by more than 10,000 camels!

Although the news spread to everyone in Chang'an as early as a month ago, hearing about it and seeing it with one's own eyes are completely different things.

The Anxi army had arrived in Chang'an at noon on the 13th, and the officials and people of Chang'an had helped the old and the young in the afternoon of the same day, and went to the Anxi military camp outside the gate to watch the excitement.

When they saw with their own eyes the gathering of more than 10,000 camels, and the mountains of sheepskin bags containing gold, silver and jewelry, they were immediately shocked and almost maddened. Through the spread of these people, the whole Chang'an immediately fell into a frenzied restlessness.

His Majesty the Emperor has issued an order to visit Danfeng Tower to watch the Anxi army enter the city to offer victory, and to vigorously reward the meritorious personnel in the battle in the river.

There has been news released, Anxi Jiedu made Gao Xianzhi the king of the county, Jin Wuwei, Right Longwu, and Right Yulin General Xiao Quai, and other county dukes, county marquis, and county sons are ready to seal a large number of them.

Even all the Chang'an officials and people were also stained with them, and each official, according to different grades, was rewarded with gold and silver utensils, wool carpets, spices and other spoils; However, if there is a household and a household registration in Chang'an, each household will be issued with two silk silks.

The old people over 60 years old in Chang'an City rewarded wine and meat, and from the 14th, for three consecutive days, the curfew was lifted, and the lanterns were allowed to parade through the streets.

That's not all, His Majesty the Emperor also issued an edict, and the Tang Dynasty issued Datang gold and silver coins from the New Year's Day of the 11th year of Tianbao. That is to say, everyone will have silver coins and gold coins in the future, and they will no longer have to follow a few servants to carry silk and copper coins when they go out to buy things.

"Dedication begins! The meritorious personnel of the Anxi Army paraded into the city and praised their achievements on the streets! ”

At four o'clock, with the shouts of the two green-robed officials of the Ministry of Rites, Gao Xianzhi and Xiao Qu came out of the sick and led two thousand soldiers who had made meritorious contributions in the battle in the river, wearing helmets and armor, and wearing brocade robes into Chang'an City.

"Dedication, dedication!"

As the Anxi army began to enter the city, the streets near Kaiyuan Gate suddenly erupted into tsunami-like cheers, and countless people followed and shouted wildly, and the sound suddenly stretched for several miles.

During the march, the purse sachets rained down on the two thousand Anxi soldiers, and the young women and ladies watching on both sides of the street were all shouting excitedly. As far as the eye can see, there are jubilant crowds everywhere.

Datang has always attached great importance to border work, and there is nothing more inspiring than opening up territory and returning home with a big victory. For these border soldiers who have returned from a hundred battles, men, women and children all express their respect from the bottom of their hearts.

The two thousand Anxi soldiers were already excited and excited at this time, and they were about to fly, and the months of conquest and the difficult trek of several months were nothing at this moment.

Everyone was so glorious that their blood was boiling, and they couldn't wait to shout with the people around them, but under the leadership of Gao Xianzhi and Xiao Quai, they all tried their best to maintain a posture of holding their heads high and not squinting. This strict military appearance caused the surrounding people to shout more and more.

But among the two thousand people, the most eye-catching ones were Gao Xianzhi and Xiao Qu, who were riding two jujube red sweat and blood horses, and walked at the front of the team.

On horseback, both of them sat as straight as their expressions, and their faces were full of spirit. Both of them are handsome guys, beautiful men like no other, Gao Xianzhi is a little more soft and handsome than Xiao Quzhi, Xiao Quzhi is a little more masculine and tough than Gao Xianzhi, and the man is heroic.

Everywhere the two went, they were screaming again and again, causing countless girls to go crazy and countless men to envy and jealousy.

They would never have thought that three years later, when An Lushan's Hebei army pressed in on a large scale, and the entire Chang'an City was in panic, it was these two people who rushed thousands of miles with the army to help, becoming their greatest hope and greatest reliance!

Xiao Qu looked at the enthusiastic and excited faces on both sides of the street, listening to their heartfelt loud cheers and all kinds of discussions, although he tried his best to maintain a flat smile on his face, his heart could not be calm for a long time.

Who would have thought that the scene of this prosperous era, these hundreds of thousands of people who cheered for themselves, in the previous time and space, four years later, would turn into a blank shadow. This majestic and majestic Chang'an City will be breached by An Lushan's beast soldiers, and more than half of these hundreds of thousands of people cheering for themselves will be killed.

In addition to Chang'an, the entire Tang Hebei, the Central Plains, and Guanzhong are full of wars, countless Han people have been devastated by the war, and countless families have been separated and their families have been destroyed. In the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, the most powerful apex of ancient China slid into the abyss like a roller coaster in an instant.

The team soon came to the outside of Xiao's house in Qinrenfang, Xiao Quzhi raised his head and saw He Keer and Xiao Yao standing on a three-story building, waving to him excitedly and shouting.

The warm eyes were met, and the softest part of Xiao Quai's heart was instantly touched, in the time and space where there is no one, what kind of ending will this beautiful, intelligent and lovely woman have?

Is it misfortune? Or did you succeed in escaping and then be displaced for decades? escaped this time, and more than ten years later, Tubo entered the Kou, and more than 20 years later, Jingyuan Mutiny, can she always be so lucky and be killed?

At this moment, thousands of thoughts emerged in Xiao Quai's heart at the same time, no enthusiasm, no rhetoric, nothing to do, even for the sake of the woman he loved, for himself and the children born to her, he had to try his best to protect this prosperous world to continue.

Xiao Quzhi smiled and beckoned to He Ke'er, as if it was a silent promise, in this life, I will always protect you, and our children are safe and happy!

The royal street boasted, and the parade in the city lasted for about an hour, and two thousand Anxi soldiers followed this Gao Xianzhi and Xiao to the big square in front of Danfeng Gate, and stood in line.

At this time, the booty carried by more than 11,000 camels was also escorted by the officials of Jinwuwei, Longwu Forbidden Army, and Yulin Army in Jingzhaofu and Chang'an Wannian Counties, and transported to the square in front of Danfeng Gate by another channel.

When bags of gold and silver coins, as well as all kinds of gold and silver utensils, were unloaded from camels by these soldiers and servants, and piled up into mountains of gold and silver on the square, Li Longji, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was a little unable to sit still on the throne on the Danfeng Gate.

Although he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and rich in the world, to be honest, he has never seen so much gold and silver at one time when he has grown so big!

Gao Xianzhi and Xiao Qubing brought more than 8 million gold coins and more than 110 million silver coins, as well as gold and silver utensils that weighed a lot more, plus 150,000 catties of silver ingots with white flowers, which dazzled his eyes at once.

Xiao Quzhi, who was in the distance, saw Li Longji react like this, and couldn't help but think in his heart, he didn't expect that he would also use gold mountains and silver mountains to smash people. Seeing so much gold, silver, and jewels should be enough to arouse your ambition to conquer and plunder, right? I don't believe you're not tempted!

Even the emperor who was rich in the world couldn't hold back the shock in his heart, and the civil and military officials below trembled even more excitedly.

knew that the Hu merchants in the Western Regions were rich, but they didn't expect to be so rich, and only one battle in the river brought so much gold and silver to the Tang Dynasty; Listening to the right Jin Wuwei, the right Longwu, and the right Yulin general Xiao Quai, the land in the river is full of gold and silver mines, and the black-clothed food and the black-clothed food are everywhere to the west.

In that case, why not send the army to go a few more times, win the enemy, and grab some more? At this moment, at least more than eighty percent of the Tang Dynasty officials couldn't help but have such thoughts. Their ambitions are being cultivated little by little.

When the two thousand Anxi troops were all lined up, Gao Xianzhi gave an order, and the two thousand soldiers turned over and dismounted at the same time. Gao Xianzhi and Xiao Qubing came out of the crowd, took a few steps forward, and performed a military etiquette, Gao Xianzhi reported loudly: "Minister, Gao Xianzhi was ordered to fight against the barbarians, thanks to His Majesty's blessing, fortunately, I have all the merits, and I am here to pay the order!" ”

After that, Gao Xiao and the two, together with the two thousand Anxi soldiers behind him, bowed down at the same time, and shouted long live: "Long live His Majesty the Emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Li Longji was overjoyed and said loudly: "Zhu Qing is flat!" The Anxi Army regained the entire territory of Hezhong in a war, breaking 200,000 enemies, and the merit was in Sheji. I decided to canonize Gao Xianzhi as the king of Wuwei County, add the general of hussars, seal 500 households, and open the palace with three divisions; Canonized Xiao Quai's illness as Liang Guogong, plus the general of the auxiliary country, 300 households were sealed, and other meritorious personnel were rewarded! ”
