Chapter 1000: Dividing the Spoils
[A thousand chapters, a little celebration, and at the same time ask for a monthly pass!] 】
Zhang Xuan waved his hand, "Please sit down!" ”
Zhiqi sat down, and at this time, Fang Xuanling also walked in, sitting behind Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan asked Zhiqi frankly: "After this battle, how many young people are left in the Zhiqi Division?" ”
Zhang Xuan hit the key point of the stubborn thinking power straight to the point, and the stubborn thinking force sighed and said: "I led 30,000 tribe Qingzhuang to follow the Khan south, and finally the whole army was almost wiped out, and half of the Qingzhuang of the Zhizhi Department was lost, I really don't know how to explain to the clansmen, to their wives and children, the Khan's southern expedition was a huge mistake, not only lost his life, but also hit the Turks hard, and we will all become Turkic sinners."

Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Can the chief tell me who will succeed the Turks to the throne of Khan?" ”
"Of course, it is the Khan's brother Ashina Dubi to inherit the Khan's throne, his strength is second only to the Khan in the Turks themselves, this time the Khan's forces are all wiped out, and no one is an opponent anymore, but he became a Khan, and we will be sad after the days when we lost the department." Unable to help but sigh lowly.
"Why?"
"For the ranch dispute, Yinshan Ranch has always been the ranch of the Lost Department, last year, Dubi's brother-in-law got the support of Dubi, led the tribe to Yinshan, to forcibly take away half of our ranch, our two families had a fight, they died hundreds of people, Dubi's wife and brother also died in my hands, Dubi was angry to lead the army to crusade, but was stopped by the Khan."
"But now that the Luo Khan has died of illness, your new Khan has succeeded to the throne, and the Ruling Department has been hit hard, what should your tribe do?"
Stubbornness shook his head gloomily, "I don't know what to do?" ”
Zhang Xuan stared at him for a moment and said, "I can let you and your clansmen go back, but I have one condition." ”
Seeing that he was not so simple, Zhang Xuan was silent for a moment, and he asked, "Your Highness, please speak!" ”
"I want you to swear to the Immortal Heaven that from now on, not a single soldier of your tribe will invade the Hetao."
This is another important reason why Zhang Xuan values the Persistence of Thinking, the ranch of the Persistence is in the northern part of the Hetao, close to the Hetao area, and Zhang Xuan hopes to use the oath of the Persistence to restrain his tribe from invading the Loop.
Zhi Zhi Si Li immediately understood what Zhang Xuan meant, this oath is not heavy, he can accept it, Zhi Zhi Si Li immediately knelt down, put his palm on his chest and swore to Changshengtian, "I swear to Changsheng Tian that for the rest of my life, the cavalry of the Zhi Zhi Zhi Department will never invade the Hetao, nor will other tribes be allowed to invade the south through the road, if this oath is violated, Changsheng Tian will punish me in the fire!" ”
Zhang Xuan was overjoyed, he felt the sincerity of his stubbornness, so he smiled slightly: "Of course, the Northern Sui will open a market in Hetao, and exchange daily necessities for your cattle and sheep, I believe we will get along." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!"
"You have a good rest for two days, and then you can lead the tribe back north."
Fang Xuanling next to him said: "In addition to the 1,000 people under your command, there are more than 4,000 prisoners of war in the other department, and you can bring them back to the grassland together." ”
Moved in his heart, he nodded silently, and asked again, "Can Your Highness allow me to bring the Khan's body back to the grassland?" ”
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, I will prepare a pair of ice coffins, you can bring him back!" ”
Tears welled up in his obsession, he knelt down and kowtowed three times to Zhang Xuan, got up and left the big tent.
At this time, Fang Xuanling sighed: "This person is true temperament, loyal, and worthy of admiration, but he took the body of the former khan back to the grassland, and the new khan may no longer trust him." ”
Zhang Xuan smiled and said: "His heart is like a mirror, he knows his choice, since he can't become the henchman of the new khan, then he will become the opponent of the new khan, as soon as he brings the body of the former khan back to the grassland, he will officially join the opposing faction of the new khan, the Turkic faction struggle is fierce, and the new Turkic khan will not take him easily, I let him go back, just to let the Lost Department become a barrier to the Hetao, and give me ten years." ”
"Your Highness is far-sighted, and it is better to be humble!"
At this moment, there was a soldier outside the tent who reported, "Marshal Qiqi, the Taiyuan envoy has arrived, and he is asking to see the marshal outside the camp!" ”
Zhang Xuan laughed: "It seems that Li Jiancheng is very anxious!" Sending people to ask for the loot so soon, are you afraid that we won't give it? ”
Fang Xuanling also smiled: "I'm afraid they don't want a little loot, and they also want to talk about the ownership of the four northern counties." ”
Zhang Xuan sneered and said: "He talks about his, we talk about ours, and the military advisor will have a good talk with him according to the plan we agreed on in advance." ”
.......
Not long after, Wei Zheng, the messenger sent by Li Jiancheng, was led into a big tent by the soldiers, and some soldiers served him fragrant tea, Wei Zheng seemed a little worried, this time he was sent by Li Jiancheng to Sui Ying to discuss the aftermath is not his original intention, he suggested that Li Jiancheng hand over this matter to Chang'an to deal with, but this time Li Jiancheng did not accept his advice, insisted on solving the remaining problems of the state by himself, which made Wei Zheng very embarrassed.
At this time, as soon as the curtain was lifted, Fang Xuanling walked into the big tent quickly, and said with a smile: "Let Mr. Wei wait for a long time." ”
Wei Zheng hurriedly got up and said, "I'm in a hurry, I'm disturbing the Fang military division, may I ask His Royal Highness King Qi is there?" ”
"I'm sorry, Your Highness hasn't returned from the inspection of Lou Fu Pass."
"I see!"
Wei Zheng smiled and didn't ask any more, he had just asked the soldier who led him into the tent, but the soldier said that their commander was in the camp, Wei Zheng of course knew that Zhang Xuan didn't want to see him, so Fang Xuanling came forward.
However, Wei Zheng himself didn't want to see Zhang Xuan, there was still room for maneuver to negotiate with Fang Xuanling, and Zhang Xuan was the highest decision-maker, once he opened his mouth, it would be equivalent to a conclusion, and it would be difficult to change things, and the time to make a conclusion was not ripe now, at least it should be negotiated between the imperial court and the imperial court.
At this time, the two pro-soldiers served them tea again, and Wei Zheng smiled at this time: "I heard General Wang say that even the Turkic Khan died in Loufu County, this is a rare victory!" Inspire the hearts of the Han people in the world, and the prestige of His Royal Highness King Qi will spread all over the world, and I want to congratulate the Northern Sui Army on this great victory. ”
Fang Xuanling said lightly: "This is the result of the sincere unity of our two armies, not the credit of the Northern Sui family, His Royal Highness the King of Qi of my family said that without the sacrifice of 10,000 Tang Army soldiers there would be no final victory." ”
Wei Zheng nodded and sighed: "His Royal Highness King Qi is really the Lord of Benevolence and Righteousness!" ”
The two exchanged a few words, and Wei Zheng led the topic to the right thing, "This time, I came to your army on the commission of His Royal Highness the Prince, because I wanted to discuss the aftermath, General Wang is just a general who leads the troops, and he doesn't care about non-war matters, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent me here to have a good talk with your army." ”
Fang Xuanling smiled slightly, took out a scroll and put it on the table, and said slowly: "Even if Mr. Wei doesn't come, His Royal Highness the King of Qi will send someone to Taiyuan, since Mr. Wei is here, then I will tell Mr. Wei about the specific results of this Lou Fu battle." ”
"I'm listening!"
Fang Xuanling said unhurriedly: "This time the Turkic army entered Loufan County with a total of 110,000 cavalry, our biggest result is the war horse, not to mention the removal of wounded horses, this time we captured a total of 73,000 war horses, because the Turks themselves were cut off from food, cattle and sheep were not harvested, but we got 8,000 big tents, 100,000 sheepskins, 40,000 complete sets of leather armor, and more than 100,000 arrows of weapons. ”
After speaking, Fang Xuanling pushed the scroll to Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng picked up the scroll and was speechless for a long time, the other party had already drawn the line, which was limited to the spoils south of Lou Fu Pass, and the north of Lou Fu Pass was not within this range at all, although Wei Zheng could also understand that the battle in Mayi County did not have anything to do with the Tang Army, but he came this time, the most important thing was to talk about the ownership of the northern part of the state, which included Mayi County and Yanmen County, and the other party isolated them in advance, so how could he speak.
Although Wei Zheng felt very embarrassed, he still had to bring up the matter that the prince had explained, he put the scroll on the table, smiled and said: "I believe that His Royal Highness the King of Qi is a broad-minded person, and he will not deal with the Tang army for a little spoil, so the division plan will be drafted by you!" ”
Fang Xuanling was not ambiguous at all, he shook his head and said: "Although His Royal Highness King Qi is broad-minded, he will also adhere to the principle, he will divide it according to the principle of sending troops and the principle of meritorious service, if you can't accept it, you can put it forward, and we will negotiate in detail." ”
Wei Zheng pondered and asked, "The war is over, I wonder when you will withdraw your troops back to Hebei?" ”
"The army of Taiyuan County will withdraw to Shiai County in half a month, mainly to evacuate food and materials from Jiaocheng County, it will take a little time, but I think half a month is enough."
"I'm not just referring to Taiyuan County, but also Loufan County, Mayi County and Yanmen County, we want to know when your army will withdraw from these three counties?"
Fang Xuanling laughed, "Liu Wuzhou has been exterminated by us, can we still return these three counties to his son to inherit?" (To be continued.) )
