Compared to Ouyang Xuan's excitement, Di Xin was much calmer.
It was just a matter of repelling the Turks so that they did not dare to invade the border. For Di Xin, this was not a big deal. You must know that in another world, he had defeated the entire prehistoric world.
Compared with these trivial achievements, what he values is the impact of this incident.
First of all, with this great victory, it will no longer be difficult for him to control the border, and it can even be said to be effortless; but similarly, when this matter is reported back to the capital, it will inevitably cause several other princes and princes to compete for the throne.
Be careful, this will have an impact on his profit-making plan.
However, the border area is far away from the capital. Even if those cheap brothers want to deal with him, they can only make some small moves at most. The most serious thing is that if some information is leaked this time, as long as they are more vigilant and take more precautions, the impact will not be big.
, and now that the Turks have retreated to the depths of the grassland, they can't find a home even if they want to leak it.
All in all, from the current point of view, the impact of this incident outweighs the disadvantages.
However, Di Xin did not dampen the interest of his subordinates. He nodded slightly to Ouyang Xuan and said, "Master Lao'an, please thank me later."
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
After Ouyang Xuan was excited for a while, he suddenly sighed again: "It's just a pity. If the Turks had not retreated, we could have pursued the victory and even penetrated directly into the depths of the grassland, completely making the Turks lose their intrusive power."
"Moreover, if everything goes well, it is impossible to incorporate the grassland into the territory of Dali. This is..."
Ouyang Xuan didn't say the rest, but Di Xin could guess it.
Incorporating the grassland into the territory of Dali is an achievement of opening up the territory and splitting the land. If it can be successful, other people will not have to compete for the throne. As long as Emperor Xin does not commit suicide in the future, even the supporters of other princes will turn to support him, etc.
He will be the next emperor after the old emperor Bintian.
However, Di Xin shook his head and said something that directly dispelled Ouyang Xuan's thoughts: "The Turkic troops lost this time were all from the Ashina tribe, and other Turkic tribes were not injured. If we send troops to attack, once other tribes take advantage of the opportunity,
Outflanking, if not careful, we will lose our existing advantage."
"Moreover, even if we win, what if we suffer too many losses and don't have enough troops to guard the border? Turks are not the only enemies who covet Dali."
"You must remember that the first duty of border officers is always to guard the territory."
When Ouyang Xuan heard this, his face straightened.
The previous great victory had made him a little complacent, but now His Highness Prince Yu suddenly understood.
"I am humble and stupid. Thank you for your guidance, Your Highness."
Ouyang Xuan bent down deeply, and at the same time he admired Di Xin even more.
With such a great achievement, other people would have been confused about the north, south, east, and west, but His Highness King Yu was not shocked by honor or disgrace, and could even stay calm and make the most correct judgment.
Is this something a person who is only seventeen years old can do?
Sure enough, there are people in this world who are born to be looked up to.
"Also, I would like to tell Commander Anjunshan not to relax just because the Turks have retreated. The first priority is to be on guard. They must always remain vigilant. Behind them are thousands of people in Dali."
"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, please leave now."
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
After Ouyang Xuan left, Di Xin also got up and left the hall, returning to the backyard.
There was one more thing he had to take care of today.
When Di Xin walked in and walked away, he saw Song Qianwei and Wang Ruoqing sitting in the pavilion, chatting enthusiastically.
"Your Highness."
Seeing Di Xin coming over, Wang Ruoqing put down the handkerchief she was embroidering, stood up and squatted down slightly on her knees. Anyone who looked at her would tell her that she was a lady from a wealthy family, gentle and polite.
In sharp contrast is Song Qianwei, who is lying on the table bored.
Seeing that Emperor Xin was on duty, Song Qianwei just lazily raised her hand and said hello in a more lazy tone: "His Royal Highness, good afternoon."
There was still a trace of paleness on her face from the loss of appetite in the past few days.
Ti Xin still hasn't figured out how a heroic heroine was raised by him to be such a waste now.
He didn't bother to care about Song Qianwei's attitude. Rather, it was interesting to see such an eclectic and strange woman in such a feudal society.
But it would be too wasteful for a mid-acquired martial arts cultivator to be kept in the yard for eye-catching purposes... No, what a pity.
That's right, it's a pity that this skill is lost.
Di Xin sat in the seat in front of Wang Ruoqing and asked Song Qianwei, who was still lying on the table: "Are you still used to staying in the house all the time?"
"It's quite good."
Song Qianwei nodded, and then looked at Wang Ruoqing apologetically: "But I've been here for a long time, and it's really a bit boring."
Speaking of this, she seemed to remember something, her eyes lit up, and she sat up.
"Is there anything interesting happening again?"
She stared at Di Xin with burning eyes, full of expectation: "Isn't it more exciting than sneaking into the Turk camp a few days ago?"
At first glance, he looks like a master who is afraid of chaos in the world.
Di Xin stretched out his hand and gently pushed Song Qianwei away, who didn't realize she was getting too close. He breathed a sigh of relief at first.
In his previous life on the Blue Star, there was a kind of dog named Erha, who was an expert at breaking up houses. This description of the Song Qianwei in front of him couldn't be more appropriate.
Fortunately she is a decent person, otherwise the General's Mansion would have been demolished long ago.
"It's not interesting at all." Di Xin said, "I think you are quite bored in the house every day, so I found a job for you, which is very suitable for you."
Song Qianwei pricked up her ears: "What's the errand?"
"Your Highness, I will prepare some tea for you."
Wang Ruoqing suddenly interrupted, said something softly, and then retreated.
Di Xin didn't stop her either. Although he didn't mind Wang Ruoqing listening, he wouldn't force her to do something.
Di Xin did not give in and went directly to the topic: "You should know that the Turks have retreated to the depths of the grassland, but due to bandits and bandits, peace has not been restored at the border."
"That's right."
Song Qianwei nodded.
Because border wars are frequent, except for some border fortresses, the supervision of many places is not as good as that in the mainland. Therefore, many fugitives who have committed crimes will come to the border to avoid being investigated by the government.
On the one hand, due to the frequent intrusions by the Turkic army during this period, many people lost their land and family and became refugees. People always have to find a way to survive. These refugees have no other way, so they have to live in ignorance in order to survive.
Out of conscience, he engaged in the business of robbing families and homes.
Therefore, there are more bandits and rogues at the border than in other places.
In the past, the border officers and soldiers were focused on defending against foreign enemies and had no energy to deal with these scabies diseases.
