Chapter 1083: A Proud Soldier
Although Li Xin broke through the city gate, but the battle in Liaodong City was not over, Xue Hu's fire from the temple has been burning around, some houses were burned, knowing that the army came in, only began to put out the fire, at that time it was too late, the fire burned a small half of Liaodong City, Liaodong people killed and injured countless people.
"Grass people Xue Hu greets Your Majesty." Xue Hu and other soldiers, under the leadership of Qin Qiong and others, entered the camp.
"Old General Xue, please get up." Li Xin glanced at Xue Hu, nodded, and said: "General Xue has worked hard over the years, although I have conquered Liaodong and eliminated Goguryeo, but those dead soldiers cannot be saved, hundreds of thousands of soldiers are buried in other places, now that I think about it, it is all my sin." ”
"Your Majesty, although Your Majesty is brave, but Your Majesty was still in Liangzhou, and he was powerless, and later, the warlords were divided, and the heroes fought for the world, where did you remember those soldiers who died in Goguryeo. Your Majesty can come at this moment, and the ministers are already grateful. Xue Hu hurriedly said.
"Old general, now that we have captured Liaodong, the past grudges can be regarded as revenge." Li Xin nodded, beckoned Xue Hu and the others to sit down, and said with a smile: "Now that the snow is covered, the entire Liaodong is white, and it is impossible to want a class teacher, since this is the case, we will celebrate the New Year in Liaodong this year." These captured Liaodong and Pyongyang, but captured a large number of women, if you want, you can find the eldest grandson Wuji, Liaodong is a good place! Pyongyang is better, there are many beautiful women in this place, if the soldiers in the army have no marriage match, they can choose, as long as the soldiers fancy it, of course, the other party must not have a marriage match, our Datang is a country of etiquette, and we can't do things like buying and selling. As long as the soldiers can like it, they will ask their superiors to make peace, and here, give their lifelong events. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qin Qiong and the other generals showed joy on their faces, getting rid of people like Cheng Biting Jin who are afraid of the inside, who doesn't want to get a few women home, even if they are raised, it is good.
"After returning to the dynasty, the people of Wude Hall and Wuying Hall will reward you according to the map and military merits, at this time, if you have a fancy place, report it first, so as not to get the time, when you return to Chang'an, the people of Wude Hall and Wuying Hall have not been to the Goguryeo Peninsula, and the places that are divided into places for you are all poor and remote areas, at that time, you can't blame them." Li Xin said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, when Goguryeo settles down, the minister will go to see the minister's fiefdom, where Mount Kumgang is." Cheng Yanjin couldn't wait to see where his fiefdom was.
"Well, I see that the fiefdom of Zhijie will be increased again." Li Xin pointed at Cheng Yanjin and said: "Among the generals, Cheng Yanjin's fief was the first to get it, everyone, he got such a bargain, he should always invite us to drink something!" Back in Chang'an, everyone went to Cheng Biting Jin Mansion, and everyone ate poverty together. There was a burst of laughter in the big tent.
"Your Majesty, the ministers only have a lot of money a year, and there are more uncles than ministers, so it's better to go to Shubao." Cheng Yanjin's face turned red, and he suddenly pointed at Qin Qiong and said.
"You black bull, you're still so picky." Qin Qiong pointed at Cheng Yanjin's disdainful expression.
"Alright, alright." Li Xin glanced at everyone and said: "This Liaodong is defeated, but if we want to really become our own territory, we must not only have the education of civil officials, but also the deterrence of military generals, who of the generals are willing to stay, guard Liaodong, I am ready to establish the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate and the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate, and there is still a lack of two major metropolitan protectors, you see, who wants to stay?" ”
The generals were stunned, most of these two were fat, but everyone thought of the bitter cold of Liaodong and the grassland, and they all wanted to return to the Central Plains. But no one dared to answer, in the big tent, the faces of Brother Dahe and the others had already changed, no matter which big capital was protected, it was the Central Plains that strengthened the control of the grassland and Liaodong, which was not a good thing for the major tribes of the grassland, but no one dared to object.
This is especially true after meeting Li Xin's siege troops. The strange explosion, a loud bang, within a radius of dozens of steps, all turned into powder, this is a powerful weapon, so powerful that Brother Dahe felt frightened in his heart, and did not dare to make any decision against it, that loud noise was like a thunderbolt falling from the nine heavens, hitting Liaodong City, which was originally very strong, was instantly torn into a gap and became an undefended city, and the entire Goguryeo was lost.
"Xiao Gong, how about you do this Anton Metropolitan Protector?" Li Xin looked at Li Xiaogong in the crowd, Li Xiaogong was lowering his head at this moment, maybe in his opinion, even if there was a reward, he probably wouldn't let himself be the protector of Anton.
Sure enough, after Li Xiaogong heard this, the boss with his eyes wide open, with an unbelievable look, sat there and didn't move, but fortunately, Li Daozong next to him pushed it, and then he reacted.
"Why don't you want to?" Li Xin asked again, with an inexplicable smile on his face.
Li Xiaogong didn't expect luck to come so suddenly, the Li family in Longxi also participated in the rebellion this time, and it was also the elder of the Li family, Li Shenfu, who served as the commander of the rebels, but unfortunately, his luck was not good, not only did the rebellion not win, but he also returned to Chang'an City smartly, thinking that no one in Chang'an City would pay attention to him, the county king of the Li family of the previous dynasty. This stupid guy doesn't want to think about how tough Datang's Jinyi Wei is, he just entered the mansion with his front foot, and his back foot was captured by Jinyiwei, and even his son with Li Jiancheng was caught. It can be said that people have stolen goods.
Li Xiaogong seems that he has not been relieved of military power now, which is already a big face, but he did not expect Li Xin not only not to blame himself, but also to let himself be the protector of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, this newly established Anton Metropolitan Protectorate will become the most powerful force in the northeast of the Tang Dynasty, although the Metropolitan Protector may not be in charge of the regime, but it is also very noble to hold the military power.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Li Xiaogong fell to the ground, his voice a little choked. It is conceivable that once Li Shenfu is killed, the status of the Li family in Longxi will also decline a lot, and he will definitely be criticized by the world's families in Beijing, and he doesn't know how many people fall into the well. Now that he has an additional Anton Metropolitan Protector, he will definitely be able to have the Longxi Li family.
"Guo Xiaoke, you go to the grassland, and be the **** protector of the capital." Li Xin looked at Guo Xiaoke in the crowd and said: "Most of the guards are changed every three years, this is a rule, no one can change such rules for any reason, more than half of the soldiers and horses under the command of the two major protectors must be Han." This is also a rule, and it must not be violated. ”
"Obey." When everyone heard this, there was cold sweat on their foreheads, Li Xin looked very kind, but he was still very suspicious of the generals in his heart, especially when it came to military power.
"There are many mountains in Liaodong, and it is easy to breed bandits and bandits, although we have eliminated the main forces of Goguryeo, but there are still some remnant forces, these people may hide in the mountains, the army must exterminate these bandits, and these bandits must not be allowed to plague Liaodong." Li Xin admonished. At any time, there are many bandits in Liaodong, known as beards.
Now that Goguryeo is wiped out, those Goguryeo people may not hide in the mountains, and when the army leaves Liaodong, these bandits will definitely make waves, so they simply take advantage of the time when the army gathers in Liaodong to start exterminating these bandits.
At the end of the feast, the soldiers of the three armies were searching for the remnants of the rebels in Liaodong City, of course, the so-called rebels were basically people with weapons in their hands, these Goguryeo people were suddenly unlucky, there were countless casualties, and those Goguryeo women were even more unlucky, and the number of violators did not know how many. The entire Liaodong City was plunged into chaos.
It wasn't until the next morning that Li Xin received a notice from Jinyiwei, and when the holy decree was issued, countless people were robbed in the city. The eldest grandson Wuji originally wanted the law enforcement team to severely punish these people, but he was stopped by Li Xin, and the soldiers were fighting outside, and their bodies and minds were affected, and the most important thing at this time was to vent.
This kind of killing can't be aimed at one's own people, it can only be to settle accounts with the Goguryeo people, although it is a little cruel, but as long as the military heart is revitalized, what can't it? Li Xin didn't have a good impression of the Goguryeo people, anyway, very few of these Goguryeo men could survive, and as for these Goguryeo women for a long time, they would also accept these new men.
That's what feelings come from. This is true in any era. As long as the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty work hard to sow seeds, the entire Liaodong and even the entire Goguryeo will be the people of the Tang Dynasty in the future.
The eldest grandson Wuji and Wei Yuancheng glanced at each other, with a worried look on their faces, the Tang Dynasty soldiers have almost no discipline in Liaodong City, it can be said that they are a group of tigers and wolves, and if this continues, although the combat effectiveness of the Tang army will increase a lot, but in the same way, if such an army is put in the country, it will be a test for the people of the Central Plains.
"Your Majesty, can the ministers enter Liaodong City?" Brother Dahe looked at Li Xin, with a hint of hope on his face, everyone is a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, if they can enter it and plunder, the Khitans will also get more resources in this southward attack.
"Liaodong City is not big, it is enough to have my Tang soldiers." Before Li Xin could speak, Li Xuanba on the side suddenly whispered.
Brother Dahe was waiting to object, but Li Xuanba's gloomy face and a pair of wolf-like eyes were coming, dark and swarthy, containing infinite killing intentions, and the dissatisfaction in Brother Dahe's heart was instantly suppressed, and a basin of cold water fell from the sky, pouring a cold heart.
"Lord Eldest Sun, you seem to be a little worried?" Wei Yuancheng approached the eldest grandson Wuji and asked in a low voice.
"Your Majesty is too good to the generals, too good to these soldiers. Although Goguryeo was not friendly to the Central Plains before, but now that it has fallen into the hands of my Tang Dynasty, it can be regarded as the territory of my Tang Dynasty, and the people of Goguryeo are also the people of my Tang Dynasty. What did the soldiers not do to plunder the people, burn, kill, and take prisoners? Eldest Sun Wuji said with a slight dissatisfaction.
"The emperor naturally has the emperor's considerations, and you and I will have to talk about it as courtiers, anyway, this Goguryeo itself is a place outside the country, and in the future, those Qiu Ba will be in charge, even if it makes trouble, where can it go? These untouchables, after they die, just migrate from the Central Plains. Wei Yuancheng said indifferently.
Eldest Sun Wuji's face was stunned, and finally shook his head and said: "What Master Wei said makes sense, right now that the army is here, it just ploughs the entire Liaodong and eradicates those thorns, I believe that no one will know what Datang did here in a few decades." ”
"Lord Changsun is right to think so, as for those soldiers, it's even simpler, get rid of Goguryeo, the next one is Tubo, the Tubo people are more ferocious than the Goguryeo people, I heard that it is still the stage of life Rumao drinking blood, and some Tubo people are still eating human flesh. It's scary to think about! Wei Yuancheng made a frightened look.
"Are you saying that the emperor intends to send these warriors to Tibet? Let these guys deal with the Tibetans? "The eldest grandson Wuji is the one who has been a strategist in the end, and he suddenly figured out the mystery in it.
Wei Yuancheng just smiled and didn't continue, some things can be said, but some things are not something that a courtier can say, can he tell others that His Majesty the Emperor deliberately wants to hone the murderous spirit of these soldiers? Wouldn't that affect His Majesty's wisdom?
The eldest grandson, Wuji, nodded, believing that this was the main reason why Li Xin allowed his soldiers to wreak havoc on Goguryeo. He didn't know enough about the Goguryeo nation, unlike Li Xin, whether in his previous life or now, he hated Goguryeo very much, Goguryeo, like the island country of Fuso, admired the strong, and when Li Xin eliminated their civilization, other problems were no longer called problems.
"The emperor is going to let those scholars who have failed to come here to teach and educate people, and after two years, they can be officials here, and after five years, they will be transferred to Shangxian County in the Central Plains as officials." Wei Yuancheng suddenly whispered. He took out a piece of music from his handbag and said, "I heard that this is Cen Wenwen's suggestion, tsk, even if this Lord Cen is in the Central Plains, he has not forgotten the affairs of Liaodong!" ”
"Lord Cen always thinks ahead of us, Your Majesty has such a capable minister, and it will be much easier to deal with state affairs." Eldest Sun Wuji's heart sank, and he had to admit that Cen Wenwen was already ahead of him in this regard, on the contrary, he was on the front line, and he didn't consider these problems, Cen Wenji was far away in Chang'an, and he thought about these problems so thoughtfully, and he also sent them thousands of miles to Liaodong, which was much smarter than Changsun Wuji.
