Chapter 518: Giant Tang

The impact of the Battle of Talas was far greater than that of the one in history.

Historically, after the defeat of the Tang Dynasty in Talas, the losses were not as serious as imagined.

Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing quickly rushed to restore their national strength and attacked from all sides again, raising the power of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions to the extreme.

But this time, the Great Food Khorasan Governorate District, which lost the battle, lost no longer its muscles and bones, but was directly cut out of the bones!

The Tang army crushed the main force of the Khorasan Governorate in the first battle, especially the Tang army's iron cavalry, which rushed to the battlefield at the end, and even pursued frantically all the way to Samarkand.

Along the way, there are really countless corpses, and there are many mournings.

The governor of Khorasan, Abu Abu, fled back to Khorasan almost sparingly.

The vassals on this side, the Transoxiana and Tocharian states, basically lost most of their soldiers and horses.

For example, the nearby Shiguo, Kangguo and other places were directly destroyed.

Li Yunze, who won a complete victory, did not move westward again, and went directly to attack Khorasan.

He merged the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate and the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate into one, and became the Metropolitan Protectorate of the Western Regions, with Li Guangbi as the Grand Protector, and the Metropolitan Protectorate was set up in Bukhara, with the main goal of expanding to the north and west of Jinshan.

After that, the original land of Sogdian countries such as the Stone Kingdom, as well as the territory of the Turgish Division, was formed into the Hezhong Metropolitan Protectorate, with Gao Xianzhi as the Grand Protector, and the Metropolitan Protectorate was set up in Talas, and the main goal was to fight to the west and attack the Great Food.

Then there is the land that originally belonged to Kang, as well as the land of the Tocharian countries to form the Tianzhu Protectorate, with Guo Ziyi as the Metropolitan Protector, and the Metropolitan Protectorate is set up in Samarkand, the main goal is to go south to Tianzhu through the Tocharian Kingdoms, and Geshu from Tibet

Han cooperated to take the land of Tianzhu.

This is not an easy task, and all kinds of arrangements, all kinds of scheduling, all kinds of deployments can be called chaotic.

In this chaotic moment, Li Yunze's abundant experience comes into play.

You don't have to consult with anyone to make the right decision.

And from top to bottom, no matter how tedious things are, they can make the right arrangements accurately.

Everything can be arranged in an orderly manner, and they are all suitable arrangements, and this ability is really admired by everyone in the army.

is worthy of being an emperor, he knows everything.

On the military side, it is good to say that the local border troops are stationed in the Protectorate everywhere, and the forbidden army of the Son of Heaven in Chang'an City will come to fight in turns.

But people's livelihood is more troublesome.

Although the Metropolitan Protectorate mainly focuses on military operations, in order to alleviate the logistical pressure, matters related to people's livelihood are naturally indispensable.

To put it simply, there is a lack of a large number of people who are willing to come to this faraway land to serve as officials.

It's too far away, far away from Chang'an City, it's really thousands of miles away.

Those who are willing to leave their homeland and come here know very little, needless to say.

Li Yunze didn't have any good way, so he could only give benefits by promoting the tiger class.

In other words, as long as you are willing to work here, after the end of your term, you will be given priority to return to Chang'an City.

The conditions are definitely very good, but the effect is not as great as expected.

Again, it's too far away.

In terms of the traffic conditions of this era, even if it is a horse march, it will take more than half a year to walk thousands of miles.

"Have you figured it out?"

Looking at the celebrities in front of him, Li Yunze asked softly, "If you stay, you will stay for at least ten years." ”

Li Bai and the others saluted with resolute expressions, "Your Majesty, we have made up our minds and are willing to stay in the Western Regions for the Tang Dynasty." ”

There is a lack of civil servants here, and Li Bai and others, who have been following Li Yunze's side all the year round, have taken the initiative to ask to stay.

The reason why they were willing to stay on their own initiative was simple, they didn't want to continue to be a secretary with the emperor.

The treatment of being a secretary is good, and he is also the son of heaven, but that's it.

Now there is an opportunity here in the Western Regions, although it is said that they will stay for ten years, but after ten years, they will return to Chang'an City, and as their emperor's close ministers, they will inevitably be reused, so they will not be a compliment.

After Li Bai and the others discussed, they found Li Yunze together and made this request.

"That's it."

Li Yunze knew that some of them were not suitable for officials, and it was actually good to be praised as a close minister.

But everyone has their own ambitions, it's not good to stay after staying for so many years, and if you stay any longer, it is estimated that someone will have to resign.

"Do you have a place you want to go?"

In the face of Li Yunze's inquiry, Li Bai and the others showed joy on their faces, and saluted in unison, "Everything is according to Your Majesty's orders." ”

"In that case, then Taibai should go to Broken Leaf City, which can be regarded as your ancestral homeland. Zimei, you go to Talas as a judge"

After some instructions and arrangements, the close ministers around him have their own places to go.

When everyone said goodbye and left, Li Yunze looked at the empty Chinese army tent, and his heart was also a little lost.

"System, the next time I want to be an emperor in the world, I don't want to be an emperor anymore, it's boring."

Being an emperor is indeed a very comfortable experience, but it is boring after many times.

After all, in addition to interacting with the girls, it is enjoyable.,The whole day is mainly busy with countless national affairs.,There are endless official duties and so on.。

Li Yunze, who has a high bottom line, doesn't want to be a faint gentleman who only knows pleasure, and is bent on fighting for the welfare of people in different worlds, and he is very tired.

"Understood."

The response of the system is quick and very crisp.

After arranging all things, Li Yunze finally set off to return to Chang'an City, which was thousands of miles away.

If nothing else, after resolving the root source of the Anshi Rebellion, and after winning the Battle of Talas and quelling the difficulties, he will not be able to conquer the world again this time.

Most of the Tang troops who went out this time will also follow back, after all, in terms of the feeding capacity of the Western Regions and other places at this time, they can't afford to raise so many large troops.

The only solution is for traditional migrants to come and reclaim the land, drive the locals to work, and so on.

Li Yunze has always been obsessed with Tianzhu, in addition to the land under the buttocks, which should naturally be included in the bag, there is another important reason, that is, the products here are abundant and the local people are docile farming civilizations.

It is indeed a docile character, because those who dare to resist have long been killed in the previous invasions.

Moreover, Tianzhu is very close to Dashi, whether it is transported by land or sea, it is far more convenient than transporting grain and grass materials from Guanzhong or even from the Western Regions.

This is also the reason why he arranged for Guo Ziyi and Gao Xianzhi to join hands to attack Tianzhu together.

Not only here, but further south, Jiannan's side is also organizing Tusi to open the way.

Literally open the way.

A wide road carved out of the dense forests and towering mountains leads south along the Nu River, deep into Burma and then west to Tianzhu.

This is destined to be a huge project, and its significance and difficulty are probably similar to the construction of the Grand Canal.

If you want to talk about the difference, that is, Yang Guang used to repair the Grand Canal from the Central Plains.

And Li Yunze dug the road to Tianzhu, but he used the natives in the dense forest.

The gap between Li Yunze and Yang Guang is clearly visible in this regard.

When he returned to Chang'an City again, the cabinet ministers led hundreds of civil and military officials to escort Yang Yuhuan and the emperor's eldest son out of the city to greet him.

For the ministers, Li Yunze applauded and praised their work performance during this time.

For Yang Yuhuan, he naturally told his thoughts with a smile.

But for the emperor's eldest son, Li Yunze stretched his face.

It's not that he's using any strict father's personality, but the intelligence system of Chang'an City has been constantly reporting big and small things to him.

This eldest son of the emperor is doted on because of his identity.

Especially when Li Yunze went on the expedition, he directly let himself go.

Not only did he skip class at will, completely ignoring the teacher's teaching and restraint, but he also followed several children of the Yang sisters to do evil in Chang'an City, which has become a big scourge in Chang'an City.

But because of his identity, because of Yang Yuhuan's bottomless doting, no one can take care of it at all, which further fuels his arrogance.

This is still young, and in a few years it will be time to bully men and women.

Although the eldest son of the emperor is lawless, he is very afraid of Li Yunze.

Because Li Yunze is really not used to him.

After all, I have experienced so many worlds, and there are already too many children in different parallel worlds, and I naturally won't do that kind of thing that I do.

"What have you done in Chang'an City during my absence?"

Faced with Li Yunze's inquiry, the eldest son of the emperor lowered his head and did not dare to respond.

The ministers and nobles of the emperor bowed their heads and counted the ants on the ground, pretending that they were deaf and blind, and they would not participate in this kind of thing.

The only one who came forward to rescue the emperor's eldest son was Yang Yuhuan, who doted on him.

"Your Majesty."

"Don't talk!" Li Yunze, who has always been very kind to Yang Yuhuan, also had a cold face this time, "What is he doing all day, don't you know?" ”

Of course Yang Yuhuan knew, but this was her only son, so she just didn't see it.

After all, the emperor only has such a son, and in the future, the world.

Facing Li Yunze, who had a cold face, Yang Yuhuan didn't dare to say more.

"Starting tomorrow." Li Yunze didn't talk nonsense, and simply made a decision: "You go to the Wutang report, and you can practice over there." After graduating, go to the front line to serve. I hope that the tempering in the army can make you really grow. ”

The eldest son of the emperor finally couldn't bear it, and looked at Yang Yuhuan aggrievedly, "Queen Mother~~~"

"Your Majesty."

Yang Yuhuan, who wanted to ask for love, was directly interrupted by Li Yunze, and the words behind him were "sharpened out, then there is a future." If you can't sharpen it, then you just have to be an idler from now on. ”

After speaking, Li Yunze stopped paying attention, took Yang Yuhuan's hand and walked in the direction of Chang'an City, "You are still young, you can continue to build a small trumpet if the tuba is scrapped." ”

Sure enough, as Li Yunze said, in the following days, Yang Yuhuan gave birth to many children one after another, and the spoiling of the emperor's eldest son naturally faded.

Datang is still thriving, and the lives of the people are getting better day by day.

Hundreds of people have migrated to all parts of the world, and the continuous branches and leaves have turned the land of the Tang Dynasty wherever the Datang Iron Cavalry went.

In the twenty-first year of Tianbao, Datang finally took Tianzhu, not only obtained the rich land of Nuoda, but also solved the logistics support of the Western Expeditionary Army.

In the fortieth year of Tianbao, after years of fighting, the Tang Dynasty's Western Expedition army finally broke through the Great Food Empire and came to the far west coast.

Looking at the turbulent and boundless sea, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty Western Expedition were excited.

Finally, the achievement of sea to sea has been achieved.

At this time, Datang can finally be called.

Jutang!
