Chapter 1099 Successful rescue
The gates of Shangzhou were wide open, and Li Shimin went out to greet Zhang Zhongjian in person. He only saw the owner of the Zhang family flag after this battle.
Zhang Zhongjian and Li Shimin had an impression that they formed an alliance with Xiao Xian to occupy Penglai in their early years. If they had to say that there were still some grudges between them.
But things seem insignificant compared to the ambition to dominate the world.
Zhang Zhongjian was welcomed into Shangzhou, and the 200,000 cavalry suffered little losses in the battle just now, which proved the strength of the Zhang family.
At this time, Li Shimin was a little worried. He really wanted to know why Zhang Zhongjian could have such strength. He didn't know how much the price it would cost to replace the 200,000 cavalry with Tang.
The gate of Shangzhou City opened and the Tubo soldiers retreated. After the people entered the city, they saw damaged houses and buildings everywhere, and the people were reorganizing their homes.
When Zhang Zhongjian saw the situation in the city, he guessed what kind of attacks had been encountered in Shangzhou for such a long time. The dozens of catapults left by the Tubo people had not been transported away.
The soldiers outside the city were cleaning the battlefield, and Zhang Zhongjian's soldiers did not move because they came here in name was invited to hire this part, which was definitely not low.
Besides, if someone does those troublesome things, they don’t have to worry about them.
Return to the General's Mansion in Shangzhou, the guest and the host and the guest sat down.
"The Zhang family leader was able to come this time, which really helped Tang State."
"Your Highness, you are polite. It is our duty to defend against foreign enemies. Besides, your Highness has promised to pay the employment fee. If it weren't for the remuneration received by his brothers, he would be guilty."
In fact, no one would believe the modesty that Zhang Zhongjian said, after all, the consumption of using 200,000 cavalry is really huge.
Li Shimin is very grateful from the bottom of his heart.
"The Zhang family leader is strong and can actually dispatch 200,000 cavalry. Such a power is enough to be the leader of a country."
Li Shimin began to test, after all, if 200,000 cavalrymen reversed and attacked them, the Tang State might be the next Tubo cavalry.
"Your Highness has been praised. This time, he was invited to resist foreign enemies, and the other is that he heard that your Highness was going to allocate places such as Tuyuhun. My Zhang family also wanted to find a place to develop. I don't know if it will be able to do it."
"Of course, Tuyuhun is the border area of the Tang Dynasty. If the head of the Zhang family can occupy it with the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, he can naturally divide a territory as a place of development."
Li Shimin made a promise very sincere. Because it was close to him, his method was to station troops in Tuyuhun, so that the distributed land could be left to them, as long as it could prevent problems before they could happen.
The think tanks in Wagang have long thought about these issues. The key to the development of Tuyuhun is to rely on the resources of the Tang Kingdom to develop, otherwise the land would not have such an environment at all.
After Zhang Zhongjian has passed, he can develop the animal husbandry industry, and then he will be able to have an extra cattle and sheep supplier and fulfill his promises. Why not do it?
"During this period, the 200,000 soldiers from the Zhang family were stationed outside Shangzhou City and waiting for news about His Highness."
Zhang Zhongjian didn't stay for the time being without finishing the conditions.
After he took his men out of the city, he also came out with dozens of cars of money.
Li Shimin only paid a portion of the money first and provided some valuable food. The money owed later will be paid after it is transported.
Zhang Zhongjian's 200,000 troops were officially stationed in Chengwai, Shangzhou? The city quickly returned to its previous situation.
After the victory of the battle, Shangzhou sent people to Chang'an to send letters. The Tubo crisis was lifted and people could be photographed to transport supplies.
Did Li Shimin make a lot of money? He still needed the Chang'an court to pay his food and salary, and his Wagang soldiers directly occupied Shangzhou and had no intention of leaving.
Because he also has to pay for the mercenaries, he takes the lead in doing things, but it does not mean that he has to pay for this matter.
Li Yuanji confiscated the supplies left by the Tubo soldiers and horses, and Li Shimin didn't care about them. He knew very well that these things were nothing compared to what he wanted from Chang'an and he didn't even look down on them.
The cavalry guards entered the city to protect these things. The soldiers and horses of Wagang didn't care about them at all. They really thought that the soldiers and horses of both sides were their own people.
Li Yuanji didn’t know what Li Shimin was going to do? Is it often a benefit to occupy the city and then dominate it at this time?
But things didn't develop like that? Li Yuanji always felt that it wasn't that simple but could not imagine it.
Just as everyone was dealing with the matter in Shangzhou, what they didn't know was that the cavalry of the vanguard had already pursued the cavalry of the Tubo.
When you just chased, you used advanced horse war guns? Not only did you effectively injure soldiers, but you also injured horses, leaving the horses uncontrollably to affect more enemy soldiers.
In one afternoon, more than 200,000 soldiers behind were considered a heavy burden? �
The vanguard soldiers who came from behind had to leave some people to collect spoils, and a large number of horses and armor were of great value.
The cannon fired and the gold was 10,000 taels? The vanguard soldier had these spoils, which meant that all the principal and profits came out of this battle.
The vanguard cavalry chased for three consecutive days before finding the opportunity to launch an attack? Stop the hostages and spoils.
He handed over all the things to 100,000 people and then returned the same way.
The soldiers and horses of Tubo and Tuyuhun fled? How many people are left uncounted? Generally, it is speculated that there may be about 100,000 people.
Only after the vanguard soldiers returned did Shangzhou know what the vanguard soldiers did.
The newspapers in Youzhou have stepped up printing to make the victory of the vanguard directly public? In this way, what Zhang Zhongjian and the soldiers in Shangzhou City do will be insignificant.
Li Shimin only found out after reading the newspaper?
Is this managing the people's hearts? It is valuable than how many times they win.
After seeing the newspaper, Zhang Zhongjian also lamented the talent of Li De? He was still a little dissatisfied, but the fact is that the other party did not find any fault.
The 100,000 people who returned home had a great impression of Youzhou soldiers? If there were no vanguard soldiers to rescue them, they would have been the lowest-class slave life in Tubo, and that kind of humble life would never have peace.
The favorable impression of Tang State has dropped to freezing point. If they hadn't lived under the rule of Tang State, they would have really wanted to live in Youzhou.
For this reason, many people asked the Pioneer Army about this time when they returned? The answer I got was that I could live in Zhongzhou.
Why don’t you know Youzhou? It’s because Zhongzhou is short of people than Youzhou? It depends on how many people will go there afterwards.
But they were honestly telling these people that Zhongzhou is currently suffering from the construction period, and living in Zhongzhou will be a little harder in the early stages of life.
