In fact, Datang's inclusion of Tuyuhun in the territory really has nothing to do with Su Dingfang.

As Li Qinzai said, the biggest role of Su Dingfang's army was to take over all the land of Tuyuhun, and by the way, beat the water dogs and drive Tubo back to the plateau.

From the beginning to the end, Tuyuhun was won by Li Qinzai and thousands of soldiers under his command, from the envoy to the meeting of the soldiers, from the negotiation to the transfer to the northwest, it was Li Qinzai who led thousands of soldiers to support him hard, so that there is a good situation today.

Su Dingfang is a famous general, of course, he also wants face, and it is impossible to grab credit from the younger generations.

The Tibetan army fled cleanly, and the Tang army did not take advantage of the victory to pursue.

First, the Tang army only has 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the 20,000 behind have not yet arrived, and secondly, Su Dingfang is very steady with his troops, and 10,000 soldiers and horses are too risky to pursue the tens of thousands of troops in Tubo.

Anyway, the overall situation of Tuyuhun has been decided, and killing more and less of the Tubo army will not affect the victory, so Su Dingfang decided to withdraw the pursuing Tang army, clean up the battlefield, and camp on the spot.

Treat the wounded soldiers, collect the remains of the robes, collect the weapons and baggage left on the battlefield by the enemy and us, and so on.

The soldiers were busy in an orderly manner, while Li Qinzai and Su Dingfang lit a bonfire outside the tent.

Su Dingfang took out a piece of jerky from his arms and handed it to him, and said pityingly: "Eat, what a baby, it's a pity that it's not my Su family's species, to be honest, if your grandfather doesn't want you in the future, come and be my grandson, the old man promises to be good to you......"

Li Qinzai's cheeks twitched a few times, and he had just escaped death when he met an old man who didn't speak human words, and he had the courage to say it in front of my grandfather.

"Grandpa Su, if nothing else, after this battle, the kid will return to Chang'an, my grandfather will only be more rare for me, unless I dig up my ancestral grave, otherwise my grandfather should not want my ......"

Su Dingfang snorted and said, "With your bastard nature, you may not be able to dig up your ancestral grave......

Li Qinzai sighed, chatting with the old horseman felt more tiring than fighting with the Tubo people.

Su Dingfang immediately sighed again, and said: "This time Tuyuhun was included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, you have made great contributions, it can be said that you won Tuyuhun by yourself, after returning to Chang'an, the Son of Heaven is only afraid of your reward, and this credit is much greater than that of your extermination of the Japanese kingdom back then." ”

Li Qinzai nodded, this is true, he himself feels that the credit is indeed greater than the extermination of the Japanese country.

For the Tang Dynasty, the importance of the Wa Kingdom cannot be compared with that of Tuyuhun.

Datang's strategy is to go east first and then west. The so-called "east" had little to do with the Wa kingdom, mainly Goguryeo Baekje and Silla, and after pacifying the east, they moved on to the Tuyuhun, Tubo and the Western Regions in the west.

The Tubo invasion of Tuyuhun was a sudden accident, and the Tang Dynasty had to give up the strategy of first east and then west, and the purpose of Li Zhi sending Li Qinzai as an envoy was also to take Tuyuhun.

Now Li Qinzai has completed it to the letter, and has caused very large damage to Tibet, and from now on, Tubo will not only have to return to the plateau, but will not be able to look east for at least one or two decades in the future.

Tuyuhun goes without saying about the strategic position of the Tang Dynasty, it can almost be regarded as a dragon vein for the continuation of the national Zuo of the Tang Dynasty, and the credit for winning it is much better than that of the Wa Kingdom, which is like a chicken rib.

Even Li Qinzai himself didn't expect that he had made such a great contribution in a daze, of course, it all depended on Lu Dongzan's foil.

If it weren't for Lu Dongzan's anger and rejuvenation, giving up his original strategic purpose, and having to mobilize all his forces to put him to death, Li Qinzai would not have won so thoroughly.

"Grandpa Su, the next thing, the kid doesn't care, as an envoy of the Son of Heaven, what the kid should do has been done, tomorrow the kid will lead the soldiers back to Liangzhou and wait for the will of the Son of Heaven."

Su Dingfang nodded: "Tomorrow, the army will be drawn and enter Tuguhun, the old man will definitely use his troops cautiously and advance step by step, and he will not live up to the good situation you have worked so hard to earn." Within two months, Tuyuhun will return to the Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Qinzai thought about it, judging from the current situation, Su Dingfang's 30,000 army, plus Pei Xingjian's 10,000 Anxi army, plus Zheng Rentai's Liuzhou soldiers and horses, if these forces are combined, there will be no problem in sweeping the Tubo army in Tuyuhun.

What's more, there are 10,000 three-eyed guns among them, which is enough for Lu Dongzan to celebrate the New Year.

took out another piece of jerky from his arms, Su Dingfang took a bite hard, and then his old face twitched, obviously the hard and dry jerky was really a bit of a problem.

"After returning to Chang'an, the Son of Heaven will have a reward, in the old man's view, this time your kid will at least be crowned a county marquis...... Tsk, at the age of his early twenties, he doesn't rely on his ancestors or his family, he really relies on his own ability to become a marquis, and there is no reason! Su Dingfang shook his head with envy and envy.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "The kid took his life in exchange for a reward, but he should not give it up." ”

"It's true, it's really a life exchange, it's justified, no one in the Manchu Dynasty has anything to say."

Su Dingfang raised his chin towards Li Qinzai: "Eat more meat, I haven't seen you for months, I'm as hungry as a monkey, and your grandfather will die of distress when I look back." ”

Li Qinzai smiled, raised his hand, and Liu Asi appeared holding a fresh leg of mutton.

Make a fire, set up a grill, wear iron branches, and make a leg of lamb bubbling on the charcoal fire.

Su Dingfang was stunned, and then looked at the jerky in his hand, and suddenly felt that it was not fragrant.

"You kid is doing this...... is worthy of the notorious gentleman, and the old man has to admire. ”

Li Qinzai said shyly: "The kid hasn't eaten a bite of hot food these days, if the days can be a little more exquisite, of course he can't be wronged." ”

"The old man is just strange, you have been chased by Lu Dongzan these days, where did you get the fresh leg of mutton?"

Li Qinzai smiled mysteriously.

In the days when he was hugging his head and running around, Li Qinzai worried about many things, but he never worried about the problem of grain and grass.

For him, a righteous and evil gentleman, there is really no need to worry about the grain and grass problems of his subordinate generals, and if he is short of food, he can find a tribe to grab a little over.

The division of the king does not take a stitch from the masses, but the cattle and sheep of the Tuyuhun masses really can't refuse.

The opportunity is rare, in the future, Tuyuhun belongs to the Tang Dynasty, and the men, women and children of those tribes have become the people of the Tang Dynasty, and it is not appropriate to grab them again.

"It's not just a leg of mutton, but everything else," Li Qinzai smiled dirtily at Su Dingfang, and said in a low voice: "If Grandpa Su feels lonely and lonely when he sleeps at night, the kid will ask the ministry to get you a few fresh girls from Tuguhun." ”

"I guarantee that Grandpa Su's legs will be weak the next day, and he won't even be able to ride a horse, and in three or two months, maybe he will return to your old Su family, which is really gratifying......"

Su Dingfang was stunned for a moment, then threw a piece of jerky over, and scolded with a smile: "Get out!" Your grandfather didn't do anything like you back then! ”
