On the hillside.

Qin Huaidao saw that the enemy army was defeated like a mountain, and his heart was completely put down, it was false to say that he was not nervous in the battle just now, if the enemy army did not withdraw, changed to a steady and steady battle, and advanced step by step, he might win, but he must have won miserably, and the losses were great, and he didn't know why the enemy made a fatal mistake and suddenly withdrew.

"Could it be that something is wrong with the enemy?"

Things are weird, but they don't matter anymore, Qin Huaidao shouted: "Order, surround and kill the enemy army, fight quickly, you must not let one go, surrender and don't kill." ”

"Obey." Zhao Long excitedly waved the order flag and issued an order.

After half a day, Zhao Long felt that his arms were shaking sore, but he didn't care, he was excited, this was a big victory, and it was an order passed on by himself, and it could be blown for a lifetime.

"Will there be any impact on accepting surrender?" Next to him, Li Dejian reminded.

Surrender means to be treated, to be fed, which requires the consumption of resources, and these people have hatred in their hearts, will retaliate, which is a huge hidden danger.

Of course, Qin Huaidao understood the drawbacks, and said with a smile: "It's okay, and after the end is taken, you need to be governed, and you need people to govern, where can I find free labor?" ”

"I see, wonderful!" Li Dejian was thorough and praised from the bottom of his heart.

The two of them came to the big tent, sat down around a bonfire, and asked people to bring some horse meat racks to roast in the volcano.

Qin Huaidao added some dry firewood to the bonfire, made the fire less prosperous, and said in a low voice: "And after the last city is taken, I am going to go back to Chang'an." ”

"No, it's too dangerous." Li Dejian almost jumped up, Chang'an is not a soft-hearted person, knowing that everyone has taken a large area of Turks and raised tens of thousands of private troops, maybe Huo Huo is waiting to sharpen his sword.

"Don't worry, listen to me."

Qin Huaidao interrupted, looking at the direction of Chang'an in the east, his eyes were deep and wise, and he said with a smile: "If you don't go, the one in Chang'an may send a large army over, will he hand over the army or not hand it over when the time comes?" If you don't pay it, it's if we take the initiative to provoke a war, and if I go over, he won't have an excuse. ”

"That being said, it's too dangerous."

"It's dangerous if you don't go, it's not dangerous to go, the one in Chang'an who is afraid of our tens of thousands of troops in hand, plus my explosives bag and other means, but he doesn't dare to do it, believe it or not, as long as I go back, he will deliberately win over, high-ranking officials and lords, and finally say that the attack on the Turks is his credit, and the court instructed me to do so."

Li Dejian smiled suddenly: "It's really possible, that ...... If attacking the Turks becomes his instruction, the credit will be his, and he will leave his name through the ages, such a good thing will never let go with his character, will you agree? ”

"Why not?" The corners of Qin Huaidao's mouth hooked up with a sneer.

"Ah...... What do you mean? Li Dejian was a little confused, why should the honor of the brothers be given to others?

Qin Huaidao waved his hand and said with a smile: "If you want to say that it is instructed by the imperial court, should you give the army food?" If our weapons are broken, do we have to replenish them? Do you have to reward your brothers for their meritorious deeds? Does local construction require a lot of funding? Do you want to allow trade? You can't come without 10 million, right? ”

"Hahaha, I see." Li Dejian suddenly realized, such a big amount of bamboo leverage, as long as Chang'an is willing to come out, why not agree? Anyway, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, everything here is still up to everyone, there is a big wrong, and if you don't slaughter it, you won't slaughter it.

Suddenly thinking of something, Li Dejian reminded: "What if the imperial court sends someone to take over?" ”

"Keep it if you are obedient, and if you are disobedient...... It's Turkic here, and it's not normal for Turks to be dissatisfied with governance, looking for an opportunity to take revenge, and killing a few officials? Qin Huaidao sneered, his eyes bursting with murderous intent.

A gust of wind blew, with a bit of solemnity.

The bonfire was beating, and the fire was fierce, as if it was responding to Qin Huaidao's decision.

After a while, Qin Huaidao fiddled with the bonfire and said slowly: "And after the last city is taken, I intend to appoint Xue Rengui as the commander of the garrison, what do you think?" ”

"The ability and military merits are enough, but I'm afraid that a few of them will not accept it." Li Dejian reminded.

Su Dingfang was stationed in Loulan City, and Luo Tong was stationed in Qitun City, but there were three Cheng Chumo brothers who fought together, as well as Luo Zhang, Luo Ying, Fang Yiai and Li Yixie, all of whom had outstanding military achievements, outstanding family backgrounds, and irreversible relationships.

Qin Huaidao nodded knowingly, thought for a while, and said: "The staff headquarters was established at the beginning, and after the war, the main focus was on training, and the captains, camp tents, and regiment commanders were trained in turn, teaching the military techniques that need to be mastered at all levels, and improving the command ability, as for your worries, I will deal with them." ”

"You mean, continue west?" Li Dejian asked, except to continue the expedition to the west and expand the territory, he couldn't think of any other way to appease everyone.

Qin Huaidao nodded in acquiescence, took out the map and spread it out, and said coldly: "And in the end, to the west are Lancheng and Niyang City, and to the west, there is territory, everyone can be settled, how much territory can be laid, and how much army is led depends on everyone, but not at the moment, you can't move troops within half a year, and the territory and troops in your hands are mainly digested." ”

"There are two major tribes of Dianhe and Crossbow in the middle of Qitun and the end of the city, do you want to?"

Qin Huaidao nodded in acquiescence, the side of the couch does not allow others to sleep soundly?

The two chatted for a while, and Xue Rengui hurried over with the unconscious King Jimo, his face was full of excitement, and he threw the person to the ground, just like throwing a garbage heap, and hugged his fists and said: "Young master, fortunately, I am not dishonored!" ”

"Dead?"

"No, just unconscious."

"That's good, sit down and eat some, the freshly roasted horse meat, this battle is majestic, watching the blood boiling, it's very good." Qin Huaidao praised, cut off a piece of meat with a claw knife and handed it over.

Xue Rengui was not polite, took it and threw it in his mouth and chewed it, full of excitement.

"Order all the troops, speed up the cleaning of the battlefield, treat the prisoners, do not kill indiscriminately, bury the pot and make food, and set off in an hour, and I will rush to the end of the city before dark." Qin Huaidao looked at Zhao Long who was waiting next to him.

"Obey!" Zhao Long hurriedly ran to give the order.

At this time, Luo Ying ran over excitedly: "Uncle, be happy, this battle is a pleasure, I found the prince of Jimo, who is the commander who led the crossbow cavalry, but unfortunately he is dead." ”

"Have you even collected the crossbow?"

"All of them have been collected, and a lot of crossbows have been captured, which is enough for a big battle."

"That's good, give some to the brothers of the Guards Battalion."

"No problem." Luo Ying agreed and hurried away.

"I'll take someone to count the results." Li Dejian also hurried away.

There were only two people left at the scene, Qin Huaidao explained the change of the military system in detail, and finally emphasized: "I want to appoint you as the commander of the garrison of the end of the city, and Cheng Chubi as the deputy commander, the town guards the end of the city, there are not enough manpower, and the military and political affairs are temporarily handled by you, no problem, right?" ”

"Could it be?" Xue Rengui looked at Cheng Chumo and the others who came over with some concern.

Qin Huaidao said knowingly: "It's okay, as long as you nod your head, I'll deal with the rest." ”

"I have no problem, thank you for the trust of the young master, it's just, what should I do over there in Qinjiazhuang?" Xue Rengui reminded again that as a generation of military gods, Xue Rengui still likes to lead soldiers in his bones.

"Chang'an needs to be re-arranged, I'll go back and deal with it in a few days."

"In this case, I obey the young master's arrangement and ensure that the end city is foolproof." Xue Rengui replied solemnly, his heart became excited, he led the army independently, and he was also the commander of more than 30,000 people, it is not an exaggeration to be regarded as a feudal official, and what he has learned in his life can finally be used.

At this time, Cheng Chumo, Fang Yiai and Li Yixie came together.

Everyone sat around excitedly, talking about their own achievements in the battle just now, while eating horse meat, and not long after, Luo Ying, Luo Zhang and Luo Wu also came over.

After a while, Li Jingren hurriedly came over and handed Qin Huaidao a note with a solemn face.

There were only four words on the note: The saint is critically ill!

The saint is the honorific title of Li Er in Chang'an, especially called, seeing the word critically ill, thinking of the previous serious illness and the Jin king's imprisonment, Qin Huaidao sighed in his heart, with the ability of the imperial court doctor, there is no reason to suddenly be critically ill, unless an external force intervenes, is there something wrong in the palace?

"Looks like we have to go back as soon as possible."

A thought flashed through his mind, Qin Huaidao threw the note into the bonfire and burned it, quickly turned into ashes, looked at Li Jingren and asked, "Where are the materials transported?" ”

"We're on our way, and we'll be here before dark."

"Inform them to transport them directly to the end of the city, the army will eat quickly, clean up the battlefield and take the prisoners to set off, and the army will be sent to the end of the city." Qin Huaidao said and looked at everyone, his sharp eyes were a little more worried.

Everyone felt Qin Huaidao's worries, and they didn't dare to be careless, so they went as promised.

ps: Thank you for chasing here, I wish you a fortune!
