Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

"His Majesty."

Queen Xiao bowed and saluted.

Li Kuan glanced at her and nodded: "Why are you here free?"

Queen Xiao pursed her lips and was silent for a long time, then she said: "Your Majesty, I heard that our army won a great victory, and that you also sent people to arrest people in the Turkic Royal Court. It was a great success."

"I want to see if I can intercede for the child Yicheng for the sake of my contribution to this battle."

She came here just thinking about Princess Yicheng.

Now over fifty years old,

The relatives around her died one after another, leaving only her grandson still under Li Kuan's control. From time to time, she could ask Li Kuan to give him some time to meet him.

There is also Princess Yicheng, who is her relative.

The merit of the words is because Queen Xiao was captured by Li Kuan at the beginning. Even though she suffered physical and mental trauma, she dreamed of being rescued one day.

but….

Just like when the young Princess Yicheng was sent to the Turks, she was disappointed with her expectations.

Especially when she saw the rapid development of Yanyun City. Every day there were plans to build high-rise buildings, factories, and even army recruitment. And every day when she went to bed and woke up, she could see a different scene.

It can be said that Yanyun City is the biggest miracle she has ever seen in her life.

The more powerful Yanyun City becomes, the more desperate she becomes.

At the end,

She had no intention of escaping, so she became King Chu's concubine with peace of mind.

After all, women...have no choice in this troubled world.

There's nothing we can do about it.

And her mental journey is similar to that of Princess Yicheng. From the beginning, she hated Turks and despaired, and then accepted and became a Turk.

Now, she has also become a Great Yanren.

If you can't beat it, join.

I am happy to provide advice to Dayan, as long as Li Kuan needs it.

This is not.

A year ago, Li Kuan came to her to discuss planting spies into the Turks.

Empress Xiao refused at first, but Li Kuan went out with a cold face that night.

Afterwards, Empress Xiao thought that she was living under someone else's roof, and her grandson's fate was something that King Chu just said casually, so after a night of restless thinking, she finally agreed to King Chu's proposal.

They were in agreement.

And she used this to put on a show, sending her closest maid A Li to Dayan and placing her next to Princess Yicheng.

During this time,

Dayan was well aware of the news about the Turks, and A Li was among them, and it can be said that he played a lot of credit.

Even more!

This time, after Zhang Liao led his troops deep into the country, he was able to reach the Turkic royal court quickly and accurately even though he had never been to the Turkic grasslands. This was all thanks to A Li.

It was the map she had witnessed and drawn with her own eyes during this period, and the map she sent back that made Zhang Liao seem to have a God's perspective.

so.

Just now, Queen Xiao said it was because of her own merits.

"About this matter, Concubine Xiao...you probably don't know what Yicheng looked like when I was a hostage, right?"

Li Kuan spoke calmly.

These words made Empress Xiao's heart tremble. She already... knew what Li Kuan meant, and she wanted to get to the bottom of it.

"Your Majesty, I am my concubine...I am my concubine..."

Queen Xiao stuttered for a long time and didn't know how to persuade Li Kuan.

Or,

Even though she was pregnant with Li Kuan's child, she knew that she did not have the qualifications and status to make Li Kuan change his mind.

The so-called mother is more valuable than her son.

As long as Du Ruyan and her child survive, she will never have the right to speak as a concubine.

Even if... that child is just a girl, this is the case.

What's more,

Queen Xiao felt that King Chu liked his daughter more than his son.

"Okay, no need to say more."

Li Kuan waved his hand and said loudly: "I will treat Princess Yicheng well for your sake, so don't worry."

Queen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Although I don't know whether Li Kuan will do what he said verbally, he at least made a promise.

This,

It was she, a concubine with no status, who was the only one left who could help Princess Yicheng.

This matter is confirmed.

Queen Xiao had nothing else to do, so she left.

As soon as Queen Xiao left, two people who were waiting outside the door quickly ran in.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, hahaha, I love you so much!"

"Your Majesty, how do you know that we are short of these efforts now? Hahaha, Your Majesty, you really provide help in times of need."

"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry about the next thing. Leave it all to us."

"..."

The two yelled, extremely excited.

Hearing this, Li Kuan, Zheng Chenggong, Qi Jiguang and others all looked over.

The visitors were none other than He Shen and Zhao Yuan.

The two of them were originally engaged in economics in Liaodong City.

But after hearing the news that the Turks were defeated and captured many prisoners, they came directly in a carriage.

The Ministry of Industry and the Head Office, the two mainstays of the development of Dayan, are most lacking in labor, and it is also labor that restricts their development.

This is just great.

When they heard that His Majesty had captured 1,500 Turks, they were really stunned.

That soul almost reaches the sky!

Extremely sour and refreshing!

Also extremely happy!

The whole person is about to jump.

Although the labor force of 15,000 is not much, with the phalanx of their labor force in Great Yan, the labor force of 15,000 can exert the working ability of the 45,000 people of the Tang Dynasty.

It's equivalent to one being worth three.

Almost all of the Turks captured this time were young Turks.

This is simply great news!

He Shen and Zhao Yuan, one needs labor force, and the other wants to use these people to fill various gaps, such as Li Shizhen, the medicine man of Imperial Physician Li, exploring the route north of Liaodong City, the danger level of unknown areas, etc.

They are all slaves that need to be consumed sustainably.

Therefore, the two of them can now be said to be the most excited people in Dayan, even more excited than Li Kuan.

Li Kuan looked at the two of them and couldn't help laughing.

"He Shen, Zhao Yuan, you two have really good noses."

"But... you are here at the right time, so divide it up.

"This group of people, after all, will shine in your hands."

He Shen smiled and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you give it all to me, the Ministry of Industry? Let me, the Ministry of Industry and the head office, manage it under one roof."

Zhao Yuan rolled his eyes: "Master He, why don't you tell us to give it to our staff first for research or something."

"Your Ministry of Industry is short of people, but we are also short of people. You don't know that Qingzhou belongs to us now. The economy needs to be built up everywhere."

"But now, there is a shortage of labor everywhere, even coal diggers are scarce. We are constantly recruiting workers. We can't oppress the Han people, right?"

He Shen glared: "I told you, Mr. Zhao, even the Ministry of Industry is not enough! There are municipal projects in major cities, and spring is about to begin. Everything needs manpower."

Zhao Yuan: "I..."

now.

Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, Li Kuan pinched his forehead and waved his hand.

"Okay, okay, you two, stop arguing."

"I will give you a share of this man." The words fell.

He Shen and Zhao Yuan immediately came forward and were extremely respectful.

Also extremely eager.

"Your Majesty, please speak."

Li Kuan glanced at them.

"Ten thousand of these fifteen thousand people will be sent to Qingzhou. There are many coal mines in Qingzhou, and the quality of the coal mines there is better than that of the coal mines here in Yanyun City."

"With the support of coal mines, steel mills, machinery factories and other industries can also be established one after another and experiments can be carried out."

"And then...radiate the entire Great Flame technology iteration."

After a few words, two-thirds of it was lost.

He Shen's face tightened and he collapsed immediately.

However, Zhao Yuan's eyes suddenly brightened and he kept nodding.

"Heshen, don't worry. Are all those craftsmen in your hands? Those craftsmen are all top-notch skilled craftsmen. They are much stronger than these Turkic slaves."

"I will give you three thousand people, plus the craftsmen. As for the remaining two thousand people, the court will make arrangements based on the situation."

Li Kuan spoke slowly.

With Li Kuan's words, He Shen and Zhao Yuan did not dare to argue anymore.

"Okay, everyone is tired today. Let's go and rest early."

"By the way, General Qi, while it's dark, hurry up and clean up the bones and other things outside the city, as well as the official roads pierced by arrows. Clean up what needs to be cleaned, and smooth out what needs to be leveled."

"In addition, we have issued an edict that a Turkic slave with three coins can be captured on the grassland. Now that the Turks are almost dispersed, we have to pursue Chen Sheng and we cannot let them catch their breath."

"And they suffered such a defeat, coupled with the changes in the Turkic Royal Court, it is estimated that the various tribes will not be able to reunite so easily. This is a good opportunity, a good opportunity to make a fortune."

Li Kuan ordered.

Qi Jiguang immediately accepted the order and retreated quickly.

Seeing that things were almost done, Li Kuan dismissed everyone and walked to his palace.

At this point, it's getting late.

He also wanted to tease his daughter and tell his wife Du Ruyan that she was safe.

He is fine, Yanyun City... is fine too.

….….….….….….

This night, it was a little cloudy.

No stars or moon to be seen.

In the abandoned military camp of Yanyun City.

Princess Yicheng, A Li, Princess Yicheng's personal maid and other female figures gathered around, trembling.

It's fine during the day,

But as soon as night came, the temperature immediately dropped.

Not to mention that when the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry counterattacked, it was in the early morning and they had not even put on their clothes. Many of them were captured alive in their sleep.

The clothes on my body are very thin.

"Your Highness, what should we do?"

A maid crossed her arms and squatted in the corner, looking at Princess Yicheng with a pale face.

Just as Jieli Khan is the leader and spiritual leader of the major tribes, Princess Yicheng is also their leader at this moment.

Princess Yicheng took a deep breath, her whole body couldn't help but tremble. She swallowed hard and forgot about the maid who spoke, and found that her eyes were filled with despair.

Of course they had all heard about the Turks' defeat.

"What else can we do? I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that King Chu could actually establish... such a strong national power in such a short period of time."

"We should have understood the principle of dragons giving birth to dragons and phoenixes. We should have understood that Li Shimin is so capable and his son should not be underestimated. From the moment he becomes a hostage, we should not let him breathe and kill him directly!"

"If that's the case, now... there won't be so many things."

Princess Yicheng was so angry that her teeth itched with hatred.

She really had never imagined that one day Dayan would be so powerful and King Chu would be so powerful.

When everyone heard this, they all smiled bitterly.

Regret!

They regret it too!

The wives of some tribal leaders even regretted it!

At that time, they should also persuade Princess Yicheng to directly eliminate the King of Chu.

"In the past, it was ridiculous. I thought I could train the King of Chu to be a slave of the Turks, just like me, and then he could become an outlet for insulting the Tang Dynasty, which would make it impossible for the Tang Dynasty to hold its head high for decades. Tool man, the result, alas..."

Princess Yicheng sighed heavily.

Her whole body was numb now.

The struggle and unwillingness he felt when he was captured were completely gone.

The Turks have an army of 100,000!

One hundred thousand!

But even Yanyun City didn't come in. Twenty million people died immediately, and then fifteen thousand were captured. Tens of thousands of people were dispersed, and only a few people returned in the end.

It is estimated that it does not exceed 30,000.

How arrogant and arrogant it was when it came, how ridiculous and tragic it was when it collapsed.

Turkic army?

Even if it is a pig,

One hundred thousand pigs, let the Great Yan army kill and catch them, but they would have to be scratched for a day or even several days.

But...it's better now!

one day!

Just one day! !

Dayan captured fifteen thousand strong Turkic soldiers. When Princess Yicheng heard the news, she did not believe it.

She thought it was too outrageous.

She thought that this was Dayan's psychological attack on him.

They were fighting against the Tang Dynasty and raiding the Turkic royal court. How could they still have the strength to defend an army of 100,000?

Dreaming!

This is to break through her psychological defense and make her willingly become Dayan's slave!

At that time.

She also thought that Jieli Khan would come to rescue her with an army of 100,000 people.

But now, she felt desperate.

Jieli Khan didn't know whether he was alive or dead, so how could he expect these defeated soldiers to capture Yanyun City again? Break through the Great Flame?

impossible!

It’s simply impossible!

Not to mention, 20,000 people were killed in one day. How many Turks would dare to attack? there is none left!

Princess Yicheng is numb.

Completely numb!

She squatted there in a daze, staring blankly into the night.

Ali next to him smiled bitterly.

She tightened her tight clothes and looked at the other prisoners in the abandoned military camp who were crying, silent, begging for mercy, and shouting, and she couldn't help but... lowered her head.
.

…….….….….….

When the scorching sun appeared again on the second day.

Yanyun City was in chaos, completely in chaos.

Without him,

Just because the city gate was opened, the outcome of yesterday's battle became completely clear.

Outside the city gate.

After a night of cleaning, only the surface layer was removed.

There were still countless corpses embedded in the soil, and the smell of blood was still pungent.

Although the Great Yan army

Rinse with water over and over again.

But it still can't be cleaned up.

Countless people came out and saw it with their own eyes out of curiosity.

"Damn it, it's true! Yesterday's result is true. We really wiped out the Turks and defeated the Turks! My God, yesterday I thought His Majesty was fooling us!"

"This, I can't believe it. The truth is even more outrageous than bragging. How is it possible? How is this possible!"
