Pang Xiaotai found Huaiyu and said, "I just saw that Cui Dunli seemed to have bad intentions. Lang should be careful."
"I know what he is thinking. I'm afraid he will have gone back to his room and started writing bullets to sue me."
"I'm going to beat up this bastard. If it weren't for A Lang, he would still be herding sheep under the Yinshan Mountains. He could only spend the night among the sheep, but now he has started to murder A Lang." Pang Xiaotai cursed.
Huaiyu asked him to sit down,
There was a stove in the room and it was warm, "Would you like some tea?"
"I'll boil the water," Pang Xiaotai quickly picked up the pot and filled it with water. The house contained water taken from the river by cutting through the ice.
What is burning in the stove is dried cow dung. The dried cow dung stored in the sun burns very well and even smells of grass. Boil the water, take some tea bricks, pry off some and put them into the pot, and continue cooking.
The tight brick tea slowly spreads out as the boiling water rises and falls, and the aroma of tea overflows.
The color of the tea has thickened, add some green salt, then pour in some fresh milk, continue to simmer over low heat, until it is almost done, add some fried rice, milk skin, and even beef.
A cup of authentic grassland milk tea is brewed and the aroma is overflowing.
When Wu Huaiyu was in Chang'an, he didn't like drinking this kind of milk tea, and only liked brewed fried tea. But on the grassland, especially in this cold winter, this kind of tea seemed more attractive.
"Not only Cui Dunli is writing bullets, but Tang Jian and An Xiuren are also probably writing, and maybe even Li Ji is writing."
"No way. I remember that the elder brother of the An family has a very good relationship with you. Is An Xiuren his uncle capable of doing such a thing?"
"And Cao Guogong looks pretty good. He and Qi Guogong are brothers from Wagang."
Huaiyu could only smile at this, saying that when Shan Xiongxin defected to Wang Shichong, he almost knocked down Li Shimin in Luoyang.
Later, when the Tang Dynasty conquered Luoyang, Shan Xiongxin was convicted and imprisoned. Li Ji and other old brothers from Wagang visited the prison to see him off. Li Ji even cut a piece of meat from his own leg and made Shan Xiongxin a last farewell meal.
, this brotherly love is indeed quite touching.
However, when Li Ji was a teenager, he became friends with Shan Xiongxin. Later they started a business together and then went to Wagang. The relationship was naturally very deep, but in fact, they only felt so so with Qin Qiong. Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, etc.
They all came to Wagang later.
Moreover, Qin Qiong had always followed Zhang Xutuo as an official soldier. He fought countless battles with Zhai Rang, Shan Xiongxin, Li Ji and others in Wagang, and Wagang was always pinned to the ground by them. Later, Qin Qiong also surrendered when he went to Wagang.
Li Mi.
And Li Mi was the one who killed Li Ji's eldest brother Zhai Rang. When he killed Zhai Rang, Shan Xiongxin was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy. Li Shiji, who was running away, was slashed on the neck. Fortunately, the slash was not too deep, otherwise Li Ji would have died.
It's long gone.
Qin Qiong later returned to the Tang Dynasty and was under the command of Qin King Li Shimin, but Li Ji returned to the Tang Dynasty but never served under Li Shimin.
It is said that it is better to learn from Taoyuan, where three people are sworn brothers, than from Wagang, where one burner of incense is used.
Those who are sworn brothers in Wagang are all plastic brothers. This is true in the novel, and it is also the same in history with the Wagang Alliance where Li Mi is the leader.
Wu Huaiyu was very sure that Li Ji would definitely report him to the emperor, and he might even beat Li Jing.
"Why is that?"
Pang Xiaotai didn't understand. He was a Lingnan raccoon barbarian. Even if he stayed in Chang'an for some time, he couldn't understand such complicated things.
Wu Huaiyu smiled and didn't explain too much to him. Wu Huaiyu actually didn't know anything. He insisted on retreating the troops in a hurry and seizing them separately. It wasn't really that urgent. He could just send a report to Chang'an for instructions.
Even if it is too expensive to gather a large army outside the Great Wall, we can still withdraw some of the troops first to seize and capture them. What's the hurry?
But he still insisted, even when Tang Jian and Cui Dunli directly opposed it, he still had to divide. Pang Xiaotai didn't understand the intention, but Li Ji would definitely understand, Tang Jian also understood, and Li Jing understood better.
After all, it's still the same thing. Wu Huaiyu is too young and his skills are too high. If he doesn't make any mistakes, it will be difficult to deal with it.
Of course, there is still room for continuing the title, but it is not a good thing to have a very popular minister at this age. If the emperor is not jealous, all the officials will be jealous.
Therefore, people must know themselves and understand current affairs.
Find something for yourself, something that is neither big nor small, and take the initiative to provide some handle. This is also a step forward for yourself.
Why did Li Jing support Wu Huaiyu?
Same thoughts, same actions.
Li Ji is also an old fox, and of course he knows the truth behind this, but from his standpoint, or his identity, he has to make a small report or even impeach him. If Li Ji doesn't follow Wu Huaiyu, Li Jing and others and do it forcefully, then
It was because he didn't get much credit from this Northern Expedition, so he just drank a few mouthfuls of soup, so there was no need to worry so much.
Tang Jian, Cui Dunli, and An Xiuren were not generals of the Northern Expedition. They were envoys who were sent to the Turks before. They were detained. They failed to complete the mission and lost the face of the court and themselves. Now when they encounter this kind of thing, no matter whether it is public or private.
, you have to take the initiative to report it.
Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills,
Everyone has their own role and must play their part well.
Pang Xiaotai is a barbarian who doesn't understand anything. Anyway, he is just a lieutenant general.
"How come we have such a great victory and still have so many nonsense?" Pang Xiaotai sighed.
"Hahaha, yes, the higher you go, the more shit will happen, but don't worry, it's not a big deal."
The coach and deputy coach made the decision together, and the other generals persuaded and expressed their opinions without force. The matter was settled and quickly arranged.
The three-way camp, plus the Fanhu servants and some of the disciples, amounted to a small number of 100,000 horses, hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous animals, and more than 200,000 male and female captives. In fact, they would be divided very quickly.
Each person was assigned one, two, or several slaves, or some livestock, and there were also some other bits and pieces.
In the end, he left war horses, young slaves, and valuable gold, silver, money, silk, etc. to the emperor and the court.
But an unexpected gain from this Northern Expedition was the capture of Empress Xiao and Yang Zhengdao, and the destruction of the puppet Sui Dynasty supported by the Turks.
What was even more unexpected was the seizure of the jade seal passed down from the country.
The gold-inlaid jade seal that was ordained by heaven to bring longevity and longevity. Although some people once said that it was a cursed seal,
But Li Yuan raised troops in Taiyuan, entered Guan Dingding, and established the Tang Dynasty. He was still thinking about the imperial seal that was taken to the wild land outside the Great Wall by Empress Xiao.
After Li Shimin took over the throne, Li Yuan even told Pei Ji that maybe it was because he had never been able to obtain the imperial seal that he could not secure the throne.
After Li Shimin became emperor, he also had a problem, which was the jade seal passed down to the country.
Although Li Yuan also made the national seal of the Tang Dynasty after he became emperor, it was not the jade seal passed down to the country after all. This is just like Guo Zuo needs to be the emperor of the previous dynasty in order to be considered upright, otherwise it is not Zhengshuo.
Yuchi Gong captured Dingxiang, Li Dejiang took the lead in capturing Empress Xiao, Yang Zhengdao,
Also on the way to escorting them back to Chang'an, Li Wujie, who had been lurking beside Empress Xiao, unexpectedly got a secret.
The Imperial Seal was indeed beside Empress Xiao. Although Yang Guangjiang was murdered that year, Yu Wenhuaji and others never found the Imperial Seal. Later, Yu Wenhuaji was defeated by Li Mi first and then Dou Jiande. Empress Xiao fell to Dou Jiande.
In his hand, Dou did not find the imperial seal.
The Turkic Khan took Empress Xiao and others to Dingxiang from Dou Jiande, supported Yang Zhengdao as the king of Sui, and put the Han people in Turkic under their control.
But Empress Xiao never revealed that she had the imperial seal in her hand, and no one had seen it.
Even though there are some rumors that the Imperial Seal has actually been hidden by Empress Xiao,
But they all thought it was just a legend,
Who would have thought it was true.
Li Wujie found out more secrets about this matter, and finally reported it to Li Dejiang. They immediately asked Empress Xiao. Along the way, Empress Xiao refused to admit it at first.
But when they were about to arrive in Chang'an, Empress Xiao made a request and asked them to tell the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty that she was willing to hand over the imperial seal, but she only asked the emperor to pardon Yang Zhengdao and preserve some of the blood of Emperor Ming Yang Guang, the founder of the Sui Dynasty.
Li De's prize immediately flew to Chang'an,
When Li Shimin heard the news, he was so excited that he almost fainted. He immediately agreed and immediately sent General Zhou Shaofan to lead the imperial army to meet Xiao Empress Yang Zhengdao on Hedong Road.
He also issued an imperial edict and conferred the title of Yang Zhengdao as a member of the Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China. This was a rank of five. Although he was a member of the rank and had no real duties, he was still of the fifth rank. He could wear a scarlet robe and a silver fish bag, and was named Tonggui.
Outside the Zhuque Gate of the Imperial City, the first house of the Imperial City was given to live with the Xiao family and Yang Zhengdao's ancestors and grandsons.
He even sent his brother, former prime minister Xiao Yu, to announce the decree to greet him.
This imperial seal was found by Li Wujie, the chief of the Six Gates, and Li Dezhou, a member of the Yuanwailang group. However, it was Yuchi Gong who conquered Dingxiang City, and both the Northern Expedition commander and the general manager of Dingxiang Road were Li Jing.
Li Jing's contribution can be said to be another one.
Before the expedition, Li Jing was already the secretary of the school inspection committee. Such a great achievement made Li Jing a little worried.
The soldiers of the Northern Expedition divided the livestock and slaves, and they were all in high spirits and smiling from ear to ear, especially since most of the soldiers had received orders to return from their headquarters and were thinking of rushing home to celebrate the New Year.
"Have you not found Jieli yet?"
"Jieli hasn't been found yet, but Yugushe has set up camp in Qikou area. He has about 50,000 troops. I suspect that Jieli has already arrived at Yugu and set up camp."
Some people say that Yugushe is the son of Qimin Khan Ranqian and the brother of Jieli. Others say that Yugushe is the son of Shibi Khan. Others say that Yugushe is the son of Jieli.
In fact, both are correct, and not entirely correct.
Yugushe is not a name, but a Turkic official title, just like Yusheshe is also called Nanmianshe. Yugushe means the leader of other tribes in Turkic language.
Qimin Khan had a son, who he named Yugushe and built his teeth in the Mobei area. Later, Yugushe died of illness and had no children. Shibi Khan let his son inherit his brother's position and become the new emperor.
The desire valley is set up.
Then last year in the Mobei War, Xue Yantuo defeated Tuoshe Ashinasheer and Yugushe in a row. Tuoshe defeated Futu City, the Khan of the Western Regions, and Yugushe retreated eastward.
However, he was seriously injured and died not long ago, so Jieli asked his son to take over his nephew's position. Jieli's son took over the position in Mobei and became the new Yugushe. According to Jieli's request, he began to lead the troops.
Go south.
When Jieli was defeated by Dingxiang, Yugushe also led his troops across the Hanhai Desert and came to the Qikou area.
And after he arrived at Qikou, he did not continue southward.
Wu Huaiyu was basically certain that Jie Li should be in his army.
"Yugushe has sent an envoy to ask for surrender. The envoy also said that he would go to Chang'an to meet the Holy Spirit." Li Jing also felt that Jieli should be in Qikou, but it is not certain now, and the emperor had previously made a decree to accept the wishes of the Turkic tribes.
Please surrender,
"We can send people to find out whether Jieli has set up troops in Yugu Valley, Qikou. If we can confirm, we can send troops to attack Qikou." Wu Huaiyu said.
"But without His Majesty's permission, we cannot send troops." Li Jing said.
"If we really want to find Jie Li, we can kill him first and tell him later!"
"If Yugushe's envoy is also Jieli's envoy and asks the sage to surrender, what if the sage issues an edict to allow it?" Li Jing asked.
"Unless the Jieli is eliminated, the Turks will never be destroyed." Huaiyu said, "Teacher, are you willing to give up this battle halfway?"
"You can get all the success at your fingertips, how can you fall short of it?"
"Erlang, our contribution this time has been great enough, we need to be more cautious in our actions,"
"Teacher, students know that, that's why I divide the captured people into prisoners,"
"You are still young. Why don't you lead your troops back to Youzhou and spend the New Year in Youzhou?"
"Teacher, I'm still young, so let me carry it,"
"Is it worth it?"
"Capturing Jieli and destroying the Turks, students think it's worth it."
"Then we, one old and one young, let's fight side by side again. After this battle is over, I will have to work for retirement." Li Jing said with a smile.
