Chapter 329: Good News
Hou Junji can be regarded as a shame this time, this time the credit is enough to make up for the past mistakes, just when Hou Junji was concentrating on writing the recital, he listened to someone outside the account.
"General, the matter is arranged."
"Come in."
The lieutenant then entered the tent,
"General, the prisoners have been arranged according to the general's orders, and the corpses of our own people have been cleaned to ensure that they have a decent return.
The weapons and equipment have also been counted, which is a record. After the adjutant finished speaking, he put a piece of paper on Hou Junji's case.
"Well, you go down." Hou Junji didn't raise his head, and said while writing.
It's just that the adjutant didn't move, and Hou Junji raised his head and asked;
"What else?"
"General, the Lord said that he wanted this prisoner."
"He's crazy? With so many captives watching this time, it's okay to secretly take some weapons, how can more than 20,000 people say that they are gone? Do you think that the tens of thousands of horses outside are blind?
Besides, can he take care of so many people?
It's really stupid, with the few people in his hands, it may not be who cares about anyone at that time. ”
Hou Junji said angrily, and a series of questions stunned the adjutant as well.
"General, don't worry, the Lord knows this, he only needs three thousand people this time." The adjutant said calmly.
"Three thousand? There are too many of them, and his little people can't take care of them at all, a thousand people at most. Hou Junji continued to shake his head.
"A thousand?" The lieutenant began to think.
"Don't think that there are fewer than a thousand, there are tens of thousands of pairs of eyes watching here, and how can you escort back with 3,000 people,
If you agree, inform your people, wait in the southwest tomorrow, and I will send it in the name of sending it to the Khitan captives.
If you don't agree, then the general has no way to tell your master not to have too much appetite. ”
Hou Junji can only give in to these, and he can't explain too much, after all, military merit is not only his own, but also the soldiers.
If someone doesn't let people poke it out, he really can't eat and walks away.
The adjutant finally nodded
"Okay, then I'll send someone to inform you immediately. I should be able to arrive tomorrow at noon, and I thank the general on behalf of my lord, and he will be thanked again in the future. ”
"Tell your master not to be in a hurry, to learn to hibernate and look for opportunities. I think the opportunity will come soon. When the time comes, don't forget what he promised General Ben. ”
Hou Junji said expressionlessly.
"Rest assured, the Lord will do what he says. Then they will retire. ”
Seeing the lieutenant general retreat, Hou Junji showed a hint of sarcasm on his face. "A bunch of idiots."
Then he buried his head and continued to write the folds.
"Eight hundred miles of urgency, a great victory in the north, the prince of Luguo Jun gathered 20,000 enemies and captured 30,000."
"Eight hundred miles of urgency, a great victory in the north, the prince of Luguo Jun gathered 20,000 enemies and captured 30,000."
"Eight hundred miles of urgency, a great victory in the north, the prince of Luguo Jun gathered 20,000 enemies and captured 30,000."
The high-pitched voice of the messenger sounded in Chang'an City, and the people stopped one after another, which was good news. The strength of the country will make the spiritual outlook of the people different.
Many people were elated and happy about the victory.
Victory in the war meant access to more land and resources, and the people were often able to drink soup.
The newspaper was sent to the palace very quickly, and Li Shimin invited the ministers to read the good news. Monarchs and ministers have fun together.
In the end, Li Shimin issued an order, first to encourage him, and then to order Hou Junji to return to the court.
The news spread quickly, and of course it also arrived at King Ji's Mansion.
"Xuan Ce, I will go to the three provinces in a while, copy a copy of the content of the good news, and send it to the newspaper, so that the people of Datang will be happy."
Li Shen was holding a string of beads in his hand, not Buddha beads, but there were one hundred and eight of them, made of gloomy wood that Li Shen had purchased with heavy gold,
The whole body is jet black, but there is yellow inside, which Li Shen called black gold. And the beads are dotted with stars in the dark, like stars in the night, which Li Shen calls the sky full of stars.
This string will be priceless in the future.
Li Shen searched for a long time and spent a lot of money to find it.
Of course, the production process also took a lot of effort, and the beads were evenly sized without a single flaw.
Wang Xuance felt a little weird when he looked at Li Shen reading the beads, and always felt that his master was going to believe something.
"Lord Wang, the Tibetan envoy Sangyang Dunne asks to see you." The butler came in to report.
"What is he doing here?" Li Shen was confused.
"I think it should be related to trade." Wang Xuance analyzed.
"Take him to the front hall, then let's go, come with me to meet him."
Not long after Li Shen sat down, Sangyang Dunne was brought in.
"The foreign minister has seen His Royal Highness King Ji."
"Well, sit down and serve tea."
"I wonder why the deputy minister is here?" Li Shen was not polite, and asked straight to the point.
"Your Highness, your country's defeat of Xue Yantuo's 50,000 soldiers and horses is really gratifying." Sangyang Donne didn't say it directly, but began to congratulate.
"Oh, you know about it so quickly, you're pretty well informed, it's all a small thing, nothing to congratulate, expected. Besides, if you want to congratulate, shouldn't you notify Honglu Temple to congratulate me? ”
Li Shen said lightly, that meaning is as simple as defeating Xue Yantuo and eating.
"Uh...."Sangyang Dunne was speechless.
Li Shen didn't speak, just waited for Sangyang Donne to say,
"His Royal Highness King Ji, the foreign minister is here to make a deal with the prince on behalf of our Zanpu this time." Sangyang Dunne saw that Li Shen didn't speak, and said helplessly.
"You Zampu want to make a deal with this king? Let's hear it. Li Shen asked with interest.
"His Royal Highness King Ji, what we Zampu mean is that we hope that King Ji can open up trade between our two countries. Whatever conditions the prince needs, he can put it forward. ”
"The deputy minister misunderstood, this king just didn't let my people trade with you Tubo, and didn't close the checkpoint. Datang is a country that can be traded freely.
The king did not interfere with the others. This is a sin of transgression. Li Shen said with a smile.
"His Royal Highness King Ji, there is a saying in the Central Plains that the Ming people don't say dark words, I know that you sent troops to cut off the road to Tubo outside the Guanwai.
And a lot of supplies sent to our Tibet were intercepted. After Sangyang Dunne finished speaking, he checked Li Shen's expression.
"Don't talk nonsense, how can the prince of our family mobilize troops and horses without permission? This is a great crime of complicity. Wang Xuance, who was standing behind Li Shen, interjected.
"Who is this?" Sanyang Donne asked.
"Oh, this is the long history of my Ji Wangfu, Wang Xuance."
"It turned out to be Wang Changshi, who has been admired for a long time." Sangyang Donne said that he had always believed that all of Li Shen's actions were the work of this aide in his house.
Otherwise, how could Li Shen have such financial resources at such a young age. I heard that this King Ji began to have an industry at the age of ten, and at the age of eleven, he had already built his own palace and moved out of the palace.
How can you have the ability at such a young age?
