Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 842

After resolving the matter of the Turkic King City, the Tang army did not hunt down and kill the Turkic tribes who fled to the Western Turkic territory.

Instead, he directly brought Yang Zhengdao, Jieli Khan and the others back to the dynasty.

At this time, it is midsummer weather.

And when their squadron returned to the court, Li Jing had already sent someone to write up the situation here as a victory memorial and sent it to the capital.

The capital Chang'an.

The weather is hot and there are few pedestrians on the streets.

A group of fast horses galloped down the street, and the man on the horses was already sweating profusely, but he was still running excitedly, and shouted loudly while running.

"Good news from the frontier, our army has won a great victory, the Turks were destroyed, and Jieli Khan was captured alive..."

"A good news from the frontier, our army has won a great victory, the Turks were destroyed, and Jieli Khan was captured alive..."

Generally speaking, the job of spreading news is a hard job, and if you rush it for eight hundred miles, it will make people and horses foam at the mouth, let alone in such a midsummer weather.

But the messenger at this time was very excited, and he was very satisfied with this messenger.

Because this is good news.

Even though there are not many pedestrians on the streets of Chang'an City now, he still couldn't help shouting loudly, he wanted to let people know the news.

And when the messenger walked through Chang'an City with the good news, many people couldn't help but walked out of their homes when they heard the news.

The sun was still very hot, a group of people gathered together to chat, a few children kept licking popsicles, they may not know what the good news is, but they just stood by and listened.

"The messenger just said it was good news?"

"It's not bad, the Turks were wiped out by our Tang Dynasty."

"Really, that's really great, let the Turks run rampant, and now destroy them..."

"That's right, that's right, I heard that Jieli Khan was captured alive and will be brought back to Chang'an City soon."

"Yeah……"

While the people were discussing a lot, the messenger had already arrived in front of the palace gate, and couldn't help shouting again: "Great news from the frontier, our army has won a great victory, the Turks have been destroyed, and Jieli Khan has been captured alive...""

After the messenger yelled, the soldiers guarding the palace gate were shocked, and then they didn't dare to hesitate, and quickly ordered: "Open the door..."

The messenger hurried into the palace with the good news, and rushed directly towards the main hall. At this time, Li Shimin was still discussing matters with the officials.

The messenger was still excited, and before he reached the main hall, he couldn't help shouting: "The frontier is a good news, our army has won a big victory, the Turks have been destroyed, and Jieli Khan has been captured alive..."

On the main hall, Li Shimin discussed the government affairs with the ministers, but because the weather was too hot, everyone stood a little drowsy standing in the main hall, and even talked about some political affairs without saying a word.

Now they really want to retreat quickly so that they can go home and cool off.

However, at this moment, they suddenly heard a voice from outside.

After hearing this voice, they who had been drowsy suddenly woke up.

"Just now, it seems... there is some good news?"

"It's good news..."

There was light in the eyes of the crowd. Li Shimin sat on it and wanted to doze off a little bit. When he heard the commotion suddenly, he couldn't help but froze for a moment: "What's the matter?"

Sitting on the dragon chair in front of him, Li Shimin didn't hear clearly what the messenger said, so he still doesn't understand what happened.

At this time, an official stood up and said: "My lord, it seems that the Turks were destroyed, and our army won a great victory..."

"What?" After hearing the official's uncertain words, Li Shimin suddenly stood up from the dragon chair and said, "Quickly pass it on!"

As soon as the order was given, some palace servants ran out and called the messenger into the main hall. At this time, the messenger was a little out of breath, and after running to the main hall, he collapsed and sat on the ground.

However, even though he was sitting paralyzed on the ground, he still couldn't help but say: "My lord, the frontier pass is a good news, our army has won a great victory, the Turks have been destroyed, and Jieli Khan has been captured alive..."

The messenger spoke intermittently, but this time, everyone understood it, and Li Shimin heard it clearly and clearly. After hearing the news, Li Shimin was so excited that tears filled his eyes.

"Great vengeance must be avenged, great vengeance must be avenged..."

Li Shimin is so excited now, because he knows very well what it means to destroy the Turks. This does not mean that there will be no major troubles in the north of the Tang Dynasty, and the people will no longer suffer from the Turks' captivity.

Rather, this great victory turned him around, and finally gave him a chance to be an emperor through the ages.

The Weishui alliance is a very humiliating treaty. If he fails to defeat the Turks, then this humiliation will always exist, and Li Shimin will also be written worthless by the history books.

But he became a king and defeated a bandit. He defeated the Turks and destroyed the Turks. Then the Weishui alliance can only be regarded as forbearance, and it is the embellishment of Li Shimin's glory.

Just like many people still feel that Gou Jian was very inspirational in those days, his two years of forbearance are also very inspirational.

"Okay, okay, Li Jing, Qin Tian and the others really lived up to my expectations, my Tang Dynasty defeated the Turks, defeated the Turks..."

Although Li Shimin had tried very hard to restrain his emotions, he couldn't help but want to be excited when he thought of the Turks being destroyed.

And Li Shimin's excitement soon infected the ministers in the court, and now they couldn't care less about the stuffy heat, and couldn't help talking about it.

"I really didn't expect that the Turks were wiped out in a few months."

"Who says no, it seems that my Tang Dynasty is really about to rise."

"That's right, that's right, under the wise leadership of the Holy Majesty, my Tang Dynasty will make the world surrender."

"It's not just the world that submits to us, any other country has to submit to us."

"Yeah, Lord Qin Hou is really powerful. He actually wiped out the Turks in this way. It wasn't a defeat, it just wiped out the Turks."

"That is, after destroying Luo Yi in Youzhou, destroying the Empress Sui Dynasty, and capturing Jieli Khan alive, the Marquis of Qin will be promoted this time, right?"

Everyone was talking, and they talked about Qin Tian, ​​which was nothing. As a figure who shined in the war against the Turks, it was normal to talk about him.

However, Gao Shilian next to him became more and more aggrieved the more he listened.

As soon as he thought about it, Gao Shilian stepped forward: "My lord, I think Qin Tian is guilty."

When these words came out, the whole hall immediately fell silent. How could Qin Tian be guilty of destroying the Turks? Was Gao Shilian looking for trouble?

Everyone was a little surprised, but Li Shimin was taken aback for a moment, wondering why this Gao Shilian had such no eyesight, and he was excited on his side, and he actually said such words.

Isn't this a distraction?

It's really short-sighted, Li Shimin thought.
