The Tang Dynasty started from saving Empress Changsun

Chapter 440 The End of Yi Nan (End)
Qibi Heli did not deal with those traitors on the spot, but disarmed them and put them under guard.

Now is the time of war and it is not appropriate to go to war, and it is not too late to leave everything until the end of the war.

After that, he gathered all the men, women, and young men in the tribe, leaving some of them to guard the camp strictly, while he himself took the four thousand cavalry he had gathered together to kill Xue Yantuo's tent.

There are 10,000+ people living in the Xue Yantuo Khan Tent, which covers a very large area.

Even though Wang Fangyi and the others have detailed map information, they can only take care of key targets, not all places.

Many areas of the Khan Tent have not been affected by the disturbance, and these stable areas are also trying to appease the surrounding areas. If this continues, Qianqi's raid plan will be greatly reduced.

Of course, it is only a discount rather than no effect.

Successfully rescued Qibi Heli, and made a big fuss in Xue Yantuo's tent, which is a great achievement in itself.

The blow to Xue Yantuo's morale was huge, and it was also a new round of shock to many grassland tribes.

More than a thousand cavalry can raid your old nest. This kind of thing is not a miracle in Datang, but a military operation that can be repeated.

Just ask if you are afraid.

This is all for the future, let's not mention it for the time being, let's talk about the present.

Just when Wang Fangyi was thinking about whether to retreat or charge again, the thunderous sound of horseshoes sounded.

Xue Yantuo was overjoyed, and many people shouted: "Reinforcement, there is reinforcement."

Tang Jun was shocked, could it be that he was really blocked by Xue Yantuo?

Wang Fangyi was the first to realize that that direction seemed to be where Qibi Heli's tribe was stationed, and the cavalry was probably recruited by him after he regained control of the situation.

Thinking of this, he shouted: "It's General Qibi, it's General Qibi, kill everyone."

The rest of Qianqi also reacted when they heard it, their worries were all gone, and they continued to charge and set fire while yelling.

Then a weird situation formed. Both sides were cheering for the sound of horseshoes, thinking that their reinforcements had arrived.

But obviously, Xue Yantuo was too happy this time.

The [-] cavalry of Qibi Heli divided into four groups and penetrated directly into Xue Yantuo's tent, completely cutting off the hope of Xue Yantuo's people.

The "stable zone" that was originally an isolated island was also completely defeated.

The arrival of Qibi Heli's army also caused a wonderful misunderstanding, that is, the Xue Yantuo people didn't know who they were at all, and they didn't expect that it would be Qibi Heli who was imprisoned.

They only thought that Datang sent several troops into the hinterland of the grassland.

But isn't Tang Jun fighting Khan?How did they get here?Is there something wrong ahead?

Many people recalled that at the very beginning, Tang Jun seemed to shout "Yi Nan is dead". Could it be that Khan is really gone?

Although many people think that this possibility is unlikely, once this idea arises, it will linger like a nightmare.

Then the morale of the army was completely broken. After the leaders of each tribe gathered a little, they turned around and started to flee.

Just go back to their own tribe and be safe.

No matter who will dominate the grassland in the future, they will all be high-ranking nobles.

If one escaped, there would be two or three, and then Xue Yantuo's tent ushered in a complete collapse.

Without orders from anyone, and without exchanging opinions, Wang Fangyi, Li Xiaoyi, Qibi Heli and the others tacitly led their troops to chase and kill them, and it didn't end until the next morning when Dongfang became pale.

Looking back, there are dead bodies of Xue Yantuo people everywhere on the ground in a radius of tens of miles.

If this is a normal war, the ears should be counted as the result of the battle at this time, but the current special situation does not allow them to do so.

In fact, there is no need to do this at all. A sentence of "raid on Xue Yantuo's tent and smash it" is worth more than any number of heads.

Qibi Heli, Wang Fangyi and Li Xiaoyi gathered together again and fought all night but there was no trace of tiredness on their faces, only excitement.

Qi Bi He Li shouted: "It's a pleasure, it's a pleasure. Old man Yi Nan, you didn't expect today. Haha..."

Wang Fangyi and Li Xiaoyi exchanged glances, and then Li Xiaoyi stepped forward and asked, "General Qibi, what are you going to do next?"

Qibi He Li immediately said: "Go to Qingshan and join the British Duke, I want to capture the barbarian old man alive."

Wang Fangyi answered, "I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Qi Bi He Li said: "Why not, you are my saviors, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Wang Fangyi said: "I personally think that the general's top priority is to take back the tribe before the rebellion has reacted, so as not to take advantage of it."

Qi Bi He Li hesitated, he naturally knew that what Wang Fangyi said was reasonable.

But he also wanted to take revenge for being humiliated by the barbarian, so he was in a dilemma for a while.

Li Xiaoyi said at the right time: "There are many opportunities to take revenge on Yinan, this time he will definitely be taken to Chang'an as the Duke of Anle. At that time, how the general wants to deal with him is not a matter of one sentence."

Qibi Heli thought about it, and in the end, his concern for the tribe prevailed.

After bidding farewell to the two of them, he led people to search for his clan according to Tumozhi's information.

After seeing him off, Wang Fangyi said, "It's time to meet this future Khan."

Li Xiaoyi nodded and said: "I don't know if he died in the turmoil last night, but it's better if he didn't die, so that Xue Yantuo will continue to be in chaos."

Wang Fangyi said: "That's right, although the law of the jungle preys on the strong in the grassland, his kind of betrayal is still not tolerated. Even if he is canonized by a saint, it will be difficult for him to convince the public."

"At that time, if we use some means, we can completely dismantle Xue Yantuo and bring the entire grassland and desert under the rule of Tang Dynasty."

Li Xiaoyi smiled and said: "This seems to be one of Chen Zhenren's original ideas? If it can be done, it will be a merit of all ages."

Wang Fangyi also agreed: "Yes, it is another eternal achievement. Speaking of it, Chen Zhenren seems to have made many eternal achievements, right?"

Li Xiaoyi said: "There are too many. Although I haven't counted them carefully, there should be ten or twenty."

Wang Fangyi praised: "He seems to be able to get things that others can't ask for. I can only say that he is indeed Chen Zhenren."

Li Xiaoyi said with a smile: "Okay, okay, no matter how much we brag about him, he won't hear it, let's save this talk until we return to Beijing."

Wang Fangyi turned his head to look in the direction of Chang'an, and said, "I haven't been back for two years since I came out this time, and I don't know what's going on at home."

Li Xiaoyi also said: "Yeah, it's the first time I've been away from home for such a long time growing up. But we will definitely go back after this battle is over, and we'll know when we see it."

Wang Fangyi withdrew his gaze, lowered his voice and said, "Do you think Qianqi will continue to expand?"

Li Xiaoyi thought for a while before shaking his head and said: "It's hard to say, the main reason is that I can't figure out what Chen Zhenren is thinking, and he can only talk about Qianqi's development."

Wang Fangyi thought about it too. Speaking of which, the mind of the real Chen is quite simple, but the problem is that his thinking is very unique, and others can't understand it at all.

"Forget it, just go back and ask him directly... You have to work hard again, go and see Domozhi."

So Li Xiaoyi took people to the place where they met last night, and he found Du Mozhi's subordinates.

Under the leadership of this subordinate, he successfully met Du Mozhi himself.

As soon as he met Du Mozhi, he said bitterly: "You guys are too ruthless."

Li Xiaoyi said seriously: "What Khan Zhang remembers is mostly Yi Nan's direct subordinates, who are loyal to Yi Nan and his son."

"If you don't do this, even if you are canonized by a saint, it will be difficult for you to sit on the Khan position."

"It's all right now, the biggest obstacle has been cleared away, maybe in a few days I will call you Khan."

Hearing this, a smile flashed in Duo Mozhi's eyes, isn't it just for this result that he has done so much.

"I hope Duke Liang will not forget our agreement."

Li Xiaoyi said sternly: "Don't worry, Khan, we will go to join the British Duke now, and promise that the Yinan father and son will not come back alive."

"When the military merits are reported, you will also report your merits to the saint one by one."

Hearing the name 'Khan', Tumozhi couldn't control the situation any longer, and said with a smile: "Then I'll leave everything to Duke Liang, and when things are done, there will be rewards."

After discussing some details with Tu Mozhi, Li Xiaoyi left and returned to the main army.

After that, the group of people didn't care about rest, and galloped towards the green hill.

At this time, the Qingshan battle was coming to an end. Yi Nan led more than [-] remnants of the camp to guard the camp and could not rush out, and Datang's side did not dare to launch an attack because they were afraid of throwing rats.

So the two sides got along in such a weird and peaceful way.

Yi Nan thought that the Tang army was afraid of Qibi Heli's life and death, so he didn't dare to attack.

That being the case, Tang Jun will come to negotiate terms with him in all likelihood.

The big deal is that when the time comes, one life will be exchanged for another. If you let me go, I will let Qibi Heli go.

So he was waiting for Li Ji to sit still and take the initiative to come to him to negotiate terms.

But Li Ji was waiting for news from Qianqi. If he could get Qibi Heli, he would immediately launch a tough battle and invite Yi Nan to Chang'an for a banquet.

If they can't be rescued, they will force Yi Nan to exchange hostages.

The time passed by one o'clock one by one, and it was not until the end of You o'clock that night that Qianqi's messenger arrived non-stop, bringing back a message:
The raid was successful, and General Qibi has been rescued.

Upon hearing the news, Li Ji said happily, "Okay, okay, that's really great."

Li Chengqian was naturally very excited, these two were great talents prepared for him.

Then he thought that these two people were discovered by Chen Jingke, and secretly decided in his heart that he would go to him and ask if there were any similar talents.

He's not greedy and doesn't want too much, just come to ten or eight.

Counting the famous ministers and generals under his father Li Shimin will show that he really doesn't want much.

At dawn, Li Ji launched a surprise attack when Yi Nan thought that Tang would not dare to attack and his defense was lax.

Yi Nan's temporary camp was simple and simple, coupled with mental arithmetic and carelessness, the gap was easily opened.

Yi Nan, who didn't fall asleep until the middle of the night, was awakened from his dream, but it was too late, and he could only lead the crowd to surrender in the end.

But after all, it is Xue Yantuo's Khan, who once made military achievements for Datang, and Li Ji was very polite to him.

Not only did he not humiliate him, but he also treated each other with courtesy.

Looking at Li Chengqian, Li Ji and others in front of him, Yi Nan said: "If you don't capture me, there is still hope for negotiation. Now that I am captured by you, it is useless to try to reconcile."

Because the grassland tribes have never been short of ambitious people, no one would exchange a captured Khan with real benefits, at worst, just change someone else.

If you want benefits, don't even think about it.

That's why Yi Nan said that if he was caught and replaced, he would not return to Qibi Heli, but would easily put the hostages in crisis.

Li Ji said with a smile: "Khan Zhenzhu is worried, we have rescued General Qibi."

"Last night, my Great Tang Qianqi raided your tent, and your eldest son Ba Zhuo unfortunately died in the rebellion."

Yi Nan stood there dumbfounded as if struck by lightning.

"How is it possible? How is it possible?"

Li Ji continued: "For my Tang soldiers, nothing is impossible."

"By the way, I will tell you a secret. Your nephew Tumozhi provided information and opened the gate of the camp."

"Ah!" Yi Nan roared in pain, "Tumozhi, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you."

Li Ji watched like this, letting him vent his emotions, and said after he had calmed down a bit: "The war is over, Datang has once again become the victor."

Yes, the war is over.

The British Duke Li Ji defeated Xue Yantuo's [-] troops in a frontal battle, and thousands of horsemen raided Xue Yantuo's tent.

Yinan and his eldest son were all captured, and the rest of the chieftains who were benefited exceeded the current leader, and there were countless nobles of all sizes.

Once the news came out, the entire grassland and even the whole world were suffocated by it. The Tang Dynasty was really powerful and terrifying.

The new overlord of the prairie had no power to fight back against Datang.

It took only three days for the ambitious Yi Nan to be defeated and captured.

You must know that Yi Nan is also a well-known hero. He took the lead in opposing Xieli back then and accumulated enough prestige for himself.

Later, step by step, he became the lord of Mobei, sweeping the entire grassland, and becoming the second in East Turkic.

But no one expected that such a powerful person would not be able to hold on for three days.

The prosperity of Datang has already exceeded their comprehension.

At the same time, Datang also told everyone with practical actions that we will not accept any threats.

If you have any requirements, you can obediently come over and explain clearly, and see if I am in a good mood; or wash your neck and wait.

Many people who originally tried to follow Yi Nan's example and try to blackmail him with hostages also completely died down.

Isn't it good to live well? Why do these dangerous and exciting things.

As for Xue Yantuo's tribes, after Yi Nan was captured, they became a complete mess.

The main reason was that Bazhuo, who was the most promising successor to Khan, was killed, and Yemang went out with him and was captured.

The only one of his remaining sons who is promising is Dadu Set, and he surrendered early because he was afraid of being held accountable for the defeat.

The rest of the kids are either incompetent or too young to have a chance.

But the country cannot be without a master for a day, and the various ministries held a meeting to finally elect Du Mozhi as the new Khan.

This is completely in line with the rules on the grassland.

Dumozhi also knew that he could not convince the crowd, and this Khan was only given to himself because everyone could not unify their opinions.

It can be said that it is very difficult to command the ministries in the future.

The best and most concise way is to obtain the canonization of Datang, so on the first day of taking office, he submitted a petition to obtain the canonization.

And his cousin arrived in Chang'an with Li Ji's triumphant army.
