I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 71 News from Mobei came from Tanma, Li Jing was shocked!
  "Li Zheng is a good leader in leading troops, but with only three thousand light cavalry, he went deep into Mobei to pursue Yugu Changdu. Although his courage is commendable, doing so puts his soldiers in danger."

"This approach is too risky and not worthy of praise."

Li Shimin looked out of the hall and said with some melancholy.

"Father!"

"Don't forget that behind Li Zheng, there is Li Jing, the military god of the Tang Dynasty."

"He will not let such a good general fall like this. He will definitely send someone to take care of him. Father, don't worry."

"Since ancient times, a thousand pieces of gold are easy to get, but a general is hard to find."

"Since God has given me, the Tang Dynasty, such a good general, I cannot live up to God's will."

Prince Li Chengqian smiled and comforted.

"Pay close attention to the battle report in the North and report to me immediately if there is any news."

Li Shimin gave instructions to Lieutenant Yu Lin.

"According to the order."

Lieutenant Yu Lin bowed and slowly retreated.

"Prince."

"Now that the war in the northern border is basically over, please personally urge the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War to distribute the pensions to the soldiers killed and disabled in the Northern Expedition to Turks as soon as possible."

"We, the Tang Dynasty, will never do anything that would dishearten those meritorious soldiers."

"You have to handle this matter personally, and the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War will cooperate with you."

"It seems that the Northern Expeditionary Army will be returning to Korea soon. This matter must be settled before the soldiers return."

"No one should be allowed to take advantage of this money."

Although the Tang Dynasty had been established for more than ten years, Li Shimin was not completely reassured by the ministers and officials under his command.

There are people who are greedy for money and money for disaster relief.

The reason why Li Shimin asked Prince Li Chengqian to arrest him personally was because he was worried that someone would make a fuss about it and chill the soldiers fighting on the front line.

"Father, please rest assured."

"I will handle this matter personally."

Li Chengqian immediately bowed and replied.

"Okay, you go back first."

"I still have to deal with some memorials."

Li Shimin smiled slightly and waved his hand to Li Chengqian.

"My son, please retire."

Li Chengqian bowed, turned and left the political hall.

Li Shimin looked at the back of Prince Li Chengqian and sighed quietly for no reason.

……

north.

On the grassland near Mobei, there were camps stretching for dozens of miles. Ever since Li Zheng broke into Mobei, Li Jing had deployed his army along Mobei.

Li Jing stood on the high platform outside the handsome tent, looking at the vast desert of thousands of miles in front of him, he also had a kind of yearning in his eyes.

After all.

He also wanted to be like Li Zheng and rush into Mobei to hunt down Yugu Changdu.

But he was the head coach of the Tang Army, and due to his status, he could not act as willfully as Li Zheng did.

"More than ten days have passed."

"I don't know how Li Zheng is doing in Mobei?"

Li Jing stared at the vast desert in front of him, feeling a little worried in his heart.

"Kingdom!"

"You can rest assured."

"With General Wei Xiaojie personally leading 10,000 troops and going to support them, everything will be fine. Moreover, the Turks are like lost dogs and can no longer pose much of a threat to our Tang army."

Deputy General Manager Zhang Gongjin noticed Li Jing's worries and comforted him.

"I hope so."

"However, if they don't come back for a day, I will not be able to rest at ease for a moment."

Li Jing held the sword in his hand, his face expressionless, and his mood was still heavy.

"It seems that General Manager Li is planning to focus on cultivating this Li Zheng. Yes, this boy is a strong general, and he is also quite strategic. If he is well cultivated, he will definitely be the Optimus Prime of the Tang Dynasty in the future."

Zhang Gongjin said with a smile.

"Yes!"

Li Jing nodded in agreement.

at this time. From the direction of Mobei, there were more than a dozen fast riders, rushing towards the Tang army camp like lightning.

"Oh, it's me, Tang Jun, who has come back from the expedition."

Looking at the approaching horses with Tang flags on their backs, Li Jing had a smile on his face.

"Give me the order to open the gate of the camp."

Li Jing immediately issued the order.

Soon.

The village gate opened, and a dozen fast horses galloped into the Tang Army camp.

At the head of the horse was a fast horse, which ran directly towards the Chinese army commander's tent. He quickly dismounted in front of the high platform, climbed onto the high platform, and came to Li Jing and others.

"I will see the Grand Steward at the end of the day."

Lieutenant Tanma knelt down on one knee and bowed to Li Jing and others.

Li Jing quickly made a gesture to ask the other party to get up and asked hurriedly:

"How is the situation in Mobei?"

"Report back to the manager."

"The Governor of Wei went hundreds of miles deep into Mobei and spent dozens of days without encountering any Turks."

Tan Ma bowed and replied.

"What about the vanguard army, Li Zheng?"

"It's been almost a month. Could it be that Wei Xiaojie hasn't been able to respond to Li Zheng?"

Hearing this, Li Jing's complexion changed slightly and he asked worriedly.

"Go back to the manager."

"The army led by Governor Wei did not encounter General Li's three thousand vanguard army at all, but along the way they encountered many fortresses and Turkic tribes that were conquered by General Li."

"It is said that General Li led three thousand light cavalry and captured the Turkic Mobei Royal Court."

"and…"

This Tanma reported all the battle reports given by Wei Xiaojie to Li Jing.

"The meaning of Wei Xiaojie is that Li Zheng captured Mobei Royal Court..."

"He really did it, and it was not possible to capture Yugu Changdu?"

Li Jing looked at Tan Ma with incredible eyes.

Zhang Gongjin on the side was the same, with a shocked look on his face.

This is impossible, right?
  "There were tens of thousands of Yugu Changdu's remaining soldiers plus Mobei herdsmen. The Mobei royal court was so heavily guarded. Li Zheng used the method of luring snakes out of their holes to lure the main Turkic forces out of the royal court and led his troops to attack. ?”

"Yuguchang isn't that stupid, is he?"

"What's more, Li Zheng only has two thousand cavalry left, and there are at least ten thousand troops in the royal court."

Zhang Gongjin couldn't help but said after hearing this.

If it weren't for what Tan Ma sent by Wei Xiaojie said, he would even suspect that Tan Ma was talking nonsense.

"Return to Manager Zhang."

"This is what my subordinates heard with their own ears from the mouth of a commander in the Pioneer Army."

"The two commanders of their vanguard army, with five hundred elite vanguard troops, attracted the main Turkic force hundreds of miles away from the royal court, and held the main Turkish force back for a whole night."

"The two commanders successfully completed the strategy set by General Li Zheng to lure the enemy."

"Finally rendezvous with the army of the Governor."

"As for whether General Li Zheng has completed the victory and captured the Turkic Royal Court, it is still uncertain."

Tan Ma answered truthfully.

"My lord, what do you think of this?"

Zhang Gongjin glanced at Li Jing and asked.

"It seems that this time it is really worthy of my expectations."

Li Jing stroked his beard, a smile broke out on his face, and he stared in the direction of Mobei.

Then, he loudly ordered:
  "Pass an order from my general to send additional scouting horses deep into Mobei to search for traces of Li Zheng and his vanguard army. Once discovered, we will immediately guide them back to the main camp."

"The last general takes orders."

The generals around him responded immediately.

"Li Zheng."

"If you can really bring back Yugu Changdu's head, then none of the generals of our Tang Dynasty Northern Expedition Army will be able to match you."

"If we really accomplish this feat, the whole world will be shocked. This feat is comparable to the former champion's feat of defeating the Huns!"

Li Jing stared at Mobei with endless excitement in his heart.
