Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 262
Sun Xiangfu also read a few time-traveling novels in later generations, but generally he seldom read them, especially the ones written by Tang Chuan. He returned to the early Tang Dynasty and copied a song "Qin Shi Ming Yue Han Shi Guan, Thousands of people have not returned from the Long March, but let the flying generals of Longcheng stay, and don’t teach Huma to go to the Yinshan Mountains.” This kind of poem lamenting the country’s unscrupulous generals, and it was still recited in front of the fierce generals in the early Tang Dynasty, really staggers how the protagonist survived In other words, the author doesn't know the meaning of this poem at all.

Sun Xiangfu never dared to read such poems, because the military generals in the early Tang Dynasty were really fierce, and if they read such poems, they would be slapped in the face.

In mid-October, Shanyang was knee-deep in heavy snow, and more than ten horses rode fast horses from the prairie snow to bring Li Jing's good news.

Jieli did not escape his fate, and was captured alive by Li Jing a year earlier than in history. In this battle, the Tang army killed more than 13 Turkic diehards at a very low price, and captured more than [-] Turkic young and strong soldiers. [-], millions of cattle and sheep, countless goods.

When he saw this battle report, Sun Xiangfu jumped up from his chair happily. It meant a lot to Shanyang. After getting rid of this restless guy, the safety factor of the Anbei Protectorate’s territory has increased several times. I am happy At the same time, the memorial requesting the right to resettle the prisoners was written and sent to Chang'an as soon as possible.

With the removal of Jieli, the Tang Dynasty will open its passage to the west, and the entire north and west regions will be connected. He Anbei Protectorate can directly export output to the west. In the future, the economic situation in the Northland will be very good.

The Babaili urgent battle report entered Chang'an almost at the same time. Li Shimin's shout almost made his jaw crooked, and all the ministers in the court were stunned.

When did the Tang Dynasty launch a war against the Turks?

And it was such a grandiose victory?
Victory is always the best way to boost the confidence of the people, and at the same time, it is also the only way to deter Xiaoxiao.

After Li Shimin selectively told all the arrangements, the officials of the aristocratic family were not only shocked, but still shocked.

What made the emperor so confident that in a snowy day, more than 1 riders dared to surprise Xieli's [-] troops?

Is the emperor a reckless risk taker?

The aristocratic family members were a little worried, and at the same time recognized the fact that even the most powerful Turks in the Tang Dynasty were wiped out, and their military strength was already unparalleled in the world. Moreover, the emperor dared to take risks, that is to say, he dared to deal with them if he was provoked. The aristocratic family wields a butcher's knife, so in the future, you have to be more honest.

Just like in history, after Li Shimin destroyed Jieli, his internal prestige in the Tang Dynasty was extremely high. Those who were still secretly scolding him for being improper, and those who were obsequious to him, all shut up and restrained themselves. Four years after Zhenguan, Datang's economy took off rapidly.

Also shocked by this matter was the Yi Nan who was far away in Mobei. He had just wiped out the Tushi Cavalry Department and gained tens of thousands of people. Now, the number of young and strong men in his hands has reached nearly 20, and the total population , It reached more than 50, which is not much worse than before the Turks did not split, and the territory they controlled was almost half of Inner Mongolia in later generations plus the entire Outer Mongolia, thousands of miles from east to west, north to south.

"Dongzhu hasn't come back yet?"

"No, she said she wants to learn the singing and dancing of the Han people in Shanyang City, and I can't persuade her."

"Singing and dancing of the Han people?" Yi Nan squinted his eyes and asked Ci Ha'er, the servant he sent to Shanyang before.

"Yes, she is learning singing and dancing skills from the governor's wife in Shanyang. She said that she will dedicate it to the patriarch when she comes back. She also asked us to bring back a lot of ironware and special products from Shanyang City."

The servant did not accomplish what Yi Nan had asked him to do, but he was not afraid of punishment. He said something like offering a treasure, and then shouted out of the tent. Immediately, many of his entourage came to the big tent with their belongings.

"Patriarch, this is an iron pot made by Shanyang, and these are boning knives made by Shanyang, which are very convenient for cutting mutton. Also, this salty bean paste contains a lot of salt. Put some in the pot where the mutton is cooked, the mutton will become very delicious, and the body will be more powerful after eating. This piece is tea, and a small lump can make a big pot of green tea, which can relieve fatigue. It is greasy and can be soaked in milk to drink, add some honey, or Shanyang’s white sugar, it tastes great, and in these jars, there are spirits that can warm the whole body with a sip..."

This servant has only lived in Shanyang for three days, and when he talked about it, he talked endlessly. Even Dongzhu unconsciously forgot her lamb because of all kinds of things about Shanyang, let alone a servant, now , he was eager to take another errand to Shanyang, where he could eat and drink well for a few days.

Yi Nan looked at the dazzling array of things in the tent, and it was impossible to say that he was not curious, but at this moment, he was still a wise and wise tribal leader, and he would unconsciously think of the things behind these things in his mind.

Li Tang was different from the former Mrs. Sui, they defeated Xie Li so easily, and even gave up their previous plan to join forces with him.

And how confident they must be that they dare to place such a wealthy city less than five hundred miles away from them?

No wonder the Huihe tribe did not send anyone to express their surrender to Li Tang after receiving the news that they had wiped out the Tushi Cavalry.This is something Yi Nan really wants to figure out.

After sweeping over the things offered by the servant with a cloudy expression, Yi Nan asked again, "Dongzhu, you were asked to bring these things back?"

Hearing this, Cihar stammered, "Uh, there is another letter, but it was written by the Anbei Governor of the Tang Kingdom. After reading it, the gentleman who knows Chinese characters advises me not to give it to you."

"What letter? Bring it."

Ci Ha'er didn't dare not listen to Yi Nan's words, and immediately took out a letter from his sheepskin jacket and handed it to Yi Nan.

"Sun Zhengming, who is only twenty years old, has the guts to invite me to Shanyang for a horse race?"

After Yi Nan read the letter, he didn't get angry as Ha'er expected, instead he stuffed the letter into the envelope. According to the translation of the gentleman who knows Chinese characters, the letter not only invites Yi Nan to go to Shanyang In addition to horse racing in the city, he also persuaded Yi Nan to submit a letter to Emperor Li Tang. Although he gave a lot of conditions and benefits, Ci Haer, who knew that Yi Nan had the intention of replacing Turks, thought that this It's insulting Yi Nan.

But he doesn't know that what Yinan wants to do most now is to establish a khanate and change the name of his leader or patriarch. As for the drama of proclaiming himself a minister, he doesn't care, and he will wait for the day when he gets the actual benefits. If he can't go on, his subordinates will naturally support him to swing the butcher knife to kill Han Di.

Sun Xiangfu wrote very clearly in the letter that as long as Xue Yantuo surrendered to Li Tang and regarded him as the suzerain, then Li Shimin would decree to make him a khan and let him continue to manage the thousands of miles in the north of Mobei. The Beidu Protectorate will fully release the commodity control on Xue Yantuo's department, and will also help him build a city in the grassland that can withstand the severe cold to ensure that his cattle and sheep will not be frozen to death during the winter.

Li Shimin's task for Sun Xiangfu is to try to ensure that there will be no border troubles in the past two years. With Sun Xiangfu's current status, he can already handle diplomatic matters on behalf of the Tang Dynasty. As for the conditions for Yi Nan, it is expected that Li Shimin will not I disagree. After all, when winter comes, every move in the north will affect the hearts of the people of the whole country. If they survive the winter without incident, the national power accumulated by the Tang Dynasty will rise by a large margin.

To become a vassal and establish a khanate, Yi Nan will not pat his head and decide. He still needs to discuss with his subordinates. Therefore, the spices, salted fish bean paste, spirits, and tea brought back by Cihar , They all came in handy. In the winter, Yi Nan called all the generals to discuss matters, and it would be impossible not to eat.

At dusk, the drunken Yi Nan issued an order that from tomorrow onwards, the tribe would move southward for fifty miles every day.

Sun Xiangfu in Shanyang City naturally didn't know Yi Nan's actions, and Li Shimin in Chang'an didn't know even more. He is very busy now. After destroying the Turks, there are a series of things that he needs to deal with. The occupied places are set up as state capitals, and Shazhou, Yizhou, Xizhou, and Tingzhou are the first to be established.

This area was originally ruled by a few ethnic minorities, but these small tribes or small countries were all destroyed by Xieli. Now that Li Jing has wiped out Xieli, these territories will of course be taken over. With the precedent of the Anbei Protectorate, Li Shimin now considers the land to be valuable.

Secondly, the reward for the bone beggar and the title of King Zhongshun were agreed. Of course, there are only [-] households in Shishi Township, which is not bad for a country. In addition, he was given the title of Governor of Suzhou, but wait. After he handed over his tribe to Sun Xiangfu, he was about to go to Chang'an to become an official. Li Shimin gave him a house in Chang'an, and allocated fields to him in surrounding counties. Half of the people were selected, and Li Shimin arranged Han Chinese for the other half.

Then, it was the arrangement for the Anbei Protectorate, which stripped Shuozhou from Sun Xiangfu. He no longer served as Shuozhou governor, promoted Shanyang to a county city, and assigned the old Huihe tribe to the Anbei Protectorate. Under the rule, so far, Sun Xiangfu's jurisdiction is the land of Liao in the east, Ganliang in the west, the desert in the north, and the foot of Tianshan Mountain. It is the Protectorate of Anbei Dadu.

And Sun Xiangfu made great contributions to the operation of destroying Jieli. He was promoted to the Duke of Shanyang County, with [-] households in Shishi Township, and served as the governor of Anbei University.

For such a reward and appointment, there was almost no opposition from the court, because Sun Xiangfu's relatives would not object, and those family officials still counted on Sun Xiangfu to help them cultivate the fields!Even more will not object.

Therefore, after Feng An in the south of the Tang Dynasty, there was another minister who held great power in the northern frontier, and he was still a young man under the age of 20, but no one found it difficult to accept, because the people he was in charge of The territory didn't belong to Datang originally, and everyone felt comfortable being outside the Great Wall in the north of Datang, protected by a barrier like the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate.

However, there are still some jealous parties who jumped out and sprayed a few words. It was only one year since Sun Xiangfu was exiled to Shuozhou last year. He was promoted from a deposed marquis to a county prince. Time, promoted three times, unprecedented!

Not only that, but his official position is still the powerful governor of Anbei. Although it is a frontier, it is more valuable than those nominal state road chiefs in Datang. This kid wants to go to the rhythm of heaven!

Therefore, before the decree of conferring him an official title and title reached Shanyang, the person who caused him trouble jumped out first. Someone said that Sun Zhengming was insane when he was treating the plague in Weinan and burned down all the houses in the county. In addition, none of the production and living objects were left behind, resulting in a wasteland in Weinan County, and he must be responsible for this matter.
