After him, Li Jing and Xu Shiji led an army of 40,000.
It's so majestic, but wherever it passes, everything is silent.
Turks, Jieli camp.
Haishi has just arrived!
Tang Jian, An Xiuren and others were already wearing armor and holding swords, and were holding their breath and waiting quietly in the corner of the tent.
"The Duke of Ju State, the last general has informed the people of the lost tribes of the words of the Duke of Ju State!"
Pang Guang cautiously came to Tang Jian and said softly.
"Um!"
Tang Jian nodded slightly, "I've tried my best. Whether Zhili can survive depends on his luck!"
Immediately, everyone regained their composure and stared closely in the direction of Jieli Camp.
After a while, they saw several figures sneaking into the Jieli Camp.
At the same time, a group of figures also appeared in the tent of the Zhihu tribe not far away from them, walking towards the tent where Zhihu Sili was imprisoned.
A quarter of an hour later.
They just saw rockets all over the sky, shooting at a group of Turkic tents from all directions.
Only their tent had not lost a single arrow or crossbow.
"The two princes and the chief steward are here to kill you!"
Seeing this, Pang Guang looked happy.
Tang Jian and An Xiuren also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Li Jing's army comes to kill them, they will be safe.
While Tang Jian, An Xiuren and others were in a daze, the entire Turkic camp was already in chaos.
Violent shouting and killing sounds were heard all around the camp.
It even seemed to be shouted through an iron trumpet!
Tang Jian and An Xiuren looked at each other, with a strange look on their faces.
However, they did not move.
However, Jie Li, who was discussing with Zhao Deyan and others in the tent, changed his expression drastically the moment Yuchi Jingde, Su Dingfang and others led the army to attack.
He stood up directly, picked up the machete, and walked out.
"The Tang army is coming to kill!"
Seeing the shouts of killing coming from all over the camp, Jieli took a deep breath and then glared hard.
"The situation is over, break out quickly!"
After saying that, he hurriedly sent someone to call the wives and children in the tent, mounted the horses brought by his confidants, and headed east with Ashina Simo, Zhao Deyan, and the five hundred elites selected during the day. Flee away.
However, before they had gone very far, Jieli and the others just stood there with despair on their faces.
In front, a dense mass of Tang soldiers were holding torches and watching them quietly.
The rear was also completely dark.
Jieli could only dismount and surrender.
In this battle, five armies of the Tang Army were surrounded on all sides. They attacked in one fell swoop late at night when the Turks were sleeping, and directly wiped out more than 10,000 people under Jieli's command.
More than 20,000 people were captured, including the 2,000 people from Zhihu's tribe. When Su Dingfang and Yuchi Jingde came to kill him, Zhihusi was rescued by his cronies. He was then ordered to throw away their weapons and attack Li Tang. surrender.
In addition, there are tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses.
As for gold, silver, jewelry and other property, there are countless of them.
The Turk Jieli Khan, his son Die Luoshi, general Ashina Simo, Prime Minister Zhao Deyan and other close relatives were all captured.
From then on, the Turks that troubled the northern border of the Tang Dynasty were completely destroyed.
The surrounding tribes who had been watching this battle were all uneasy and trembling.
Within four months of sending troops from the Tang Dynasty, the Turkic Khans, who had been strong for decades, were completely surrounded and wiped out by the Tang Dynasty.
Immediately, all the tribes sent envoys carrying gifts to Chang'an, preparing to show their goodwill to the Emperor of Tang and receive generous rewards.
at the same time.
After capturing Jie Li.
Li Jing then sent his general Su Dingfang and two thousand elite troops to escort Tang Jian, An Xiuren and others, and escorted Jie Li back to Chang'an.
…
When Li Shimin received the news of the Iron Mountain victory, it was already ten days later.
At this time, the Tang Dynasty had just celebrated the New Year.
The entire city of Chang'an is still in a state of joy.
"Hahaha……"
After listening to the messenger's report, Li Shimin took the memorial written by Li Jing and his face was full of joy.
Immediately, a general amnesty was granted to the whole world. Anyone whose sins were not serious could be released home after twenty punishments with the rod.
Now, the entire Chang'an City knew that the Turkic Jieli Khan would be escorted to Chang'an City immediately if he were not captured by the Tang army.
Everyone is also very happy.
"Such a great happy event, I cannot but participate in it!"
After hearing the reports from Li Chengqian and Cheng Chusi who were full of joy, Li Xuan also looked happy.
Then, he waved his hand.
"Steward, please inform me that I have come to Chang'an City to celebrate Jie Li and will auction two hundred bottles of liquor at the teahouse tomorrow!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Li Chang replied quickly.
Hearing this, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others also had happy faces.
They also have some grain stored in their homes, which can also be used to auction grain.
However, when I think about the fact that all the major aristocratic families in the world have been transporting grain to Chang'an City for the past few months in order to auction liquor, I can't help but feel helpless.
The family is so powerful, they still need to keep working hard!
"In addition, the shops owned by King Jin are offering 40% off today and tomorrow to celebrate the arrival of Jie Li!"
Li Xuan said again.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Li Chang's mouth twitched with distress, but he still nodded.
"Also, today and tomorrow, the vegetables in the glass greenhouse will be sold at a 40% discount!" Li Xuan said again.
"..."
At this moment, Li Chang was so distressed that he didn't want to speak.
Soon, all the common people and wealthy businessmen in Chang'an City were all happy again.
After a day of celebrating.
Li Shimin summoned a group of ministers and began to discuss how to govern the Turkic lands.
Although the Turks are not as prosperous as the Central Plains, they do have vast grasslands where cattle, sheep and horses can be grazed, especially sheep.
Li Shimin and other ministers all realized the benefits of sweaters knitted from wool after experiencing this winter.
You can make a lot of money just by herding cotton sheep.
Similarly, many aristocratic families have also taken a fancy to the benefits that the vast land of Turks can bring to them.
In addition, the Turkic lands are connected to the Western Regions, which is another huge business opportunity.
Suppressed by the Jin King, His Majesty and others in the country, these aristocratic families could only subconsciously expand outward.
After discussing for three days, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and other talents completed the discussion and established the governor's offices of Shunzhou, Yuzhou, Huazhou, Changzhou, Dingxiang, and Yunzhong in these Turkic lands.
After spring began, the Turkic slaves were asked to build cities and lay concrete roads here.
In this way, the lands of the Eastern Turks were completely included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
The entire territory of the Tang Dynasty expanded from this to a depth of 600 miles north of the Yinshan Mountains, and its sphere of influence directly reached the Xiaohai (Lake Baikal), and to the west, directly reached the desert.
Five days after the good news came.
Tang Jian and An Xiuren escorted Jie Li's motorcade to the outside of Chang'an City.
Li Shimin, together with the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan, Zongzheng Li Xiaogong, Prince Li Chengqian and other Li and Tang clan relatives, first came to the Ancestral Temple to pay homage to their ancestors, destroy the Turks and capture the Turkic Khan Jieli.
Later, Li Shimin, together with the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan, Zongzheng Li Xiaogong, Prince Li Chengqian, as well as Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and other important officials from the court, came to the tower of Chengtian Gate in Taiji Palace.
A group of ceremonial guards were displayed around.
Zhuque Street outside Chengtian Gate Tower was even more crowded with soldiers and civilians.
Tang Jian, An Xiuren, and Su Dingfang escorted Jie Li and his family members and generals as they entered through Mingde Gate and walked along Zhuque Street to Chengtian Gate.
Along the way, all the civilian soldiers pointed at Jie Li and others in the carriage, with hatred on their faces.
The people in the car in front of me are those Turkic barbarians Khan who were killed by a thousand cuts. These Turkic barbarians should all be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts!
The teahouse on Zhuque Street.
In the private room on the fourth floor, Li Xuan, Cui Mi, Cheng Chusi, and Li Chongyi sat in front of the window. Each of them held up a clairvoyant eye and looked curiously at Jie Li and others below.
