Chapter 245 Tian Khan!
On the canopy.

Chang'an·Xiande Hall

Li Shimin, dressed in imperial uniform, sat on the throne.

The civil and military ministers lined up on the left and right, listening solemnly.

An eunuch was holding an edict and reading loudly:

"Order of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Order Li Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, to be the general manager of the march to Dingxiang Road."

"Order Li Shi, the governor of Bingzhou, to be the general manager of the march to Tongmo Road."

"Order Xue Wanche, the governor of Lingzhou, to be the general manager of the Changwu Dao march."

"Order Chai Shao, the governor of Huazhou, to be the general manager of the Jinhe Road march."

"The combined army is 150,000."

"They are all under the control of Li Jing, the military commander of Dingxiang Road."

"The law is in Huang Zhong, a great victory!"

……

[On November 629, AD, Li Shimin ordered Li Jing, Minister of the Ministry of War, to be the commander-in-chief of the Dingxiang Road March, commanding fifteen armies to attack the Turks in separate lanes. 】

[On the second day of December, Tuli Khan fled the Turkic Khanate and arrived in Chang'an to meet Li Shimin. 】

……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che thought about it for a while, then turned around and said:
"Wei Qing, do you think this is a good time to go to war?"

Wei Qing, who was summoned to accept the establishment of a new military system and the construction of new armaments, said solemnly with two big dark circles under his eyes:
"Your Majesty, based on his words, the Turkic Khan has lost the support of the people and his command is ineffective."

"The snow disaster in Saibei should have basically wiped out all food supplies."

"To be close to the barbarians means to be alienated from one's own tribe, and to resent one's close relatives for being close to a foreign tribe. Once the army arrives, there will be internal changes."

"People of the Han family often gather together in one place. If they hear that the Tang army is leaving the fortress, they will definitely rise up and respond."

"This is the right time to attack the Turks."

Liu Che nodded and stroked his beard silently.

"If you were leading the troops, how would you fight?"

Wei Qing looked at the area where the Turkic Khan was on the sky, thought about it secretly for a while, and said:

"Divide your troops to surround the left and right sides of Yinshan. One is to cut off its retreat, and the other is to unite the central army."

"Then……"

Wei Qing glanced at Huo Qubing who was watching the sky.

"Let this kid lead a team of elite cavalry to hang up the Turkic Khan."

"When the army encircles us, everything will be settled."

When Huo Qubing heard this, he turned to Wei Qing and said:

"Uncle, give me three thousand horses, and I will repay you with the Khan's head."

Wei Qing glanced at him, and Huo Qubing curled his lips helplessly.

Liu Che laughed loudly!
"Okay! This is my hussar general! My champion lord!"

"But you have to learn from your uncle and learn to play it safe and steady."

Huo Qubing glanced at Wei Qing, cupped his hands to Liu Che and said:

"Your Majesty, I am not eager for quick success."

"You also know the nature of the Hu people. When they see the army coming, they run away. They can run faster than a rabbit!"

"Before he could be surrounded, this man ran out of Yinshan Mountain and went deep into the vast desert."

"It's better to break through the Chinese army and block the gap from Yinshan Mountain to Mobei."

"At that time, the left and right armies will remain stationary, just wait and see!"

Liu Che stopped laughing when he heard this and thought carefully.

……

On the canopy.

Territory map is properly arranged.

The middle route army was led by Li Jing, with Zhang Gongjin as his deputy.

A red line goes from Chang'an to Daizhou, and then from Daizhou to Mayi and Guyangling.

The scene gradually advances.

Dingxiang Turkic Royal Court
Wearing heavy armor, braving the wind and snow, Li Jing, with white hair and beard, led three thousand cavalry and stood on the hillside.

Looking at the white sweat tent underneath, Li Jing raised his whip and pointed his finger, shouting loudly:

"Soldiers! Charge with me!"

……

[On the first day of the first lunar month in 630 AD, Li Jing led elite cavalry from Mayi to Tun Wuyang Ridge, attacked Dingxiang at night, and defeated the Turks. 】

[Jieli Khan saw the sudden arrival of the Tang cavalry and panicked, thinking that the Tang Dynasty was sending troops to overwhelm the country. 】

[Historical records: "The Turkic Jieli Khan did not expect Jing to arrive suddenly. He was shocked and said: 'If the Tang Dynasty did not overwhelm the country, how dare Jing come here alone!'"]

[I was frightened several times in one day, so I wanted to move to Qikou. 】

……

Datang.

Li Shimin smiled and twirled his beard.

His biggest regret was that he could not personally attack the Turkic Khan!

Being able to see this scene now is a bit of comfort.

Li Chengqian on the side looked at the three thousand cavalry chasing tens of thousands of troops in the sky, and said with excitement:
"In the past, Li Lingti had five thousand infantrymen and surrendered to the Huns. He was still awarded the title of Zhubo."

"The Duke of this generation sent 3,000 light cavalry deep into the imperial court, defeated and restored Dingxiang, and gave great power to Beidi."

“It’s unprecedented in ancient times and modern times!”

Li Shimin put his hands behind his back and said with a smile:
"In this battle, Li Jing performed extraordinary feats, which will surely go down in history. He also washed away the shame of the Weishui River, which is very satisfying."

"But what is the root cause of the Dingxiang victory?"

I have long been accustomed to Li Shimin's surprise inspections from time to time, coupled with watching the sky screen and studying hard.

Li Chengqian said confidently:

"First, it is due to the fact that Duke Dai is well versed in the art of war and the importance of speed."

"Attack Dingxiang at night, take him by surprise and attack him unprepared!"

"The suddenness of this war was achieved to the greatest extent, and it can be said to be a model of victory by surprise."

"Secondly, this victory also depends on the strong combat power of the elite cavalry under his command."

"With only three thousand cavalry, Jie Li was shocked and mistakenly thought that the Tang Dynasty was sending troops to the country. This shows how powerful the Tang army was and how fast it advanced."

"My soldiers of the Tang Dynasty completely crushed the opponent in terms of force and momentum!"

Li Shimin smiled and twirled his beard.

"My son Qilin'er."

……

On the canopy.

When the Central Route Army marched towards Wuyang Ridge.

The West Route Army, led by Li Shiji and supported by Qiu Xinggong, also set out from Bingzhou to the west of Daizhou.

Pass through the clouds and go around to the white road behind the Turkic Royal Court.

Then, he met Jieli who was retreating to Yinshan Mountain.

……

[On the eighth day of February, after the battle at Dingxiang, Jieli retreated to Yinshan, encountered Li Shiji's army at Baidao, and was severely defeated by Li Ji's army, so he had to flee. 】

[So he withdrew from Tieshan, sent the officials to the court to apologize, and asked the whole country to annex. 】

……

On the canopy.

Bright yellow round collar robe, black futou.

Li Shimin, who was leaning on the dragon couch, twirled his beard and looked at the Turkic envoy below.

"Why did Jieli send you here?"

After losing his strength, he lowered his head and said respectfully:

"His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

"Jieli Khan sent me to pay tribute to His Majesty the Emperor."

"Said he was willing to defend the north of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin laughed when he heard this.

"Okay, as long as you can stop the Turks from continuing to harass Datang."

Zhisi lost his strength and looked up, then quickly lowered his head and said:
"Your Majesty...Jieli Khan...is the Turkic Khan."

Li Shimin sneered, twirled his beard and said:
"I know, I thought you didn't know!"

Watching the speechless persistence lose its strength.

Li Shimin stood up and walked slowly to him, lowered his head and asked in a deep voice: "Why don't you surrender?"

When he lost his strength in thinking, he heard the words and said in a nonchalant voice:
"Your Majesty, our Khan said that we should protect the north of the Tang Dynasty."

"Actually...it actually means surrender."

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes widened, he pointed in front of him and said angrily:
"I want to see Jie Li surrender before me in person!

……

[As for Jie Li's attachment, Li Shimin understood that this was a delaying strategy, and immediately ordered Hongluqing Tang Jian to negotiate with Jie Li, while secretly ordering Li Jing to continue to advance, not giving Jie Li any chance to breathe. 】

[Because if we don’t take advantage of the victory and eliminate the Turks in one fell swoop, Jieli will flee to Mobei, and they will definitely resurrect and make a comeback in the future. 】

……

Ming Dynasty Yongle Period
Zhu Di jumped up from the rocking chair, pointed at the sky and shouted:
"Na na na! Did you see it?"

"Resurgence! Rebirth!"

Zhu Gaochi wiped his face silently.

"Dad, if you keep doing this, your son will have no money."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Di immediately restrained his claws and lay down on the rocking chair.

Rebel!

……

[Li Jing and Li Shiji, who were in Baidao, discussed for a while and planned to attack Jie Li while he relaxed his vigilance because of the Tang envoy's comfort. 】

[The deputy general Zhang Gongjin thought it was inappropriate. He said, "The imperial edict has promised his surrender, but the envoy is there, so how can we attack him!"]

[But Li Jing thought that the fighting opportunity was fleeting and envoys like Tang Jian were insignificant. When Han Xin defeated Qi, he had seized the fighting opportunity in time. 】

[So Li Jing selected 10,000 elite cavalry, carried 20 days of rations, and marched overnight. 】

[Li Shiji then divided his troops and went to Yinshan Mountain. Marching to Qikou, he encountered more than a thousand Turks in their tents and captured them to accompany the army. 】

[Over there Jieli was overjoyed to see Tang Jian and his party and relaxed his vigilance. 】

[Li Jing ordered Kuang Daofu to attack the captain Su Dingfang, who led 200 fine cavalry as the vanguard, and used the cover of heavy fog to approach the Turkic tent. 】

[With the help of heavy fog, Su Dingfang found the Turkic enemy camp seven miles away. Then he led his two hundred cavalry to charge bravely and killed hundreds of Turkic people. 】

[Li Jing introduced his army and arrived later. Knowing that he was outmatched, Jieli Khan fled in panic. His troops fled in all directions. In this battle, the Tang army beheaded more than 10,000 people, captured more than 100,000 men and women, and captured hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous animals. An unprecedented victory. 】

……

{Li Jing’s record is very strong, but his story is not as twists and turns as Huo Qubing’s, so his popularity is less (laughing and crying)}

{The first fierce general who was not so widely circulated because he was too successful, his whole life was like the hero of a cool novel (dog head)}
{The situations of the two are also different. When Huo Qubing was there, there were only three SSRs. Two people fought. When Li Jing was there, there were many SSRs. There were too many fierce people behind them. When they were both strong, they felt less prominent. }
{The civil servants and generals of the Zhenguan Dynasty are incomparable to many dynasties and the entire dynasty. The wise king was in power and the dynasty was filled with fierce ministers! }

{The main reason is that Li Shimin has a strong ability to recognize and employ people. Most of the people in Zhenguan's hands are talents selected by himself. In addition, there is an eldest grandson in the family, the empress, who is a role model in life. }
{Li Shimin himself is the most fierce one. There are not many emperors with such fighting power, not to mention his political ability is second to none. }
……

On the canopy.

Jie Li broke through the encirclement with more than ten thousand cavalry.

When he rushed to Qikou and wanted to flee to Mobei, he ran into the ambush of the Tang army who had been waiting for a long time.

"Jieli Khan, a certain general has been waiting for a long time!"

Li Shiji looked at Jie Li who was looking around hastily and laughed loudly.

Jie Li's subordinates, who were already weak, were frightened when they saw the Tang army and surrendered to the Tang army one after another.

Li Shiji was busy capturing 50,000 Turkic soldiers, while Jieli fled westward with a few followers.

……

[Jieli wanted to go to the northwest of Lingzhou and his nephew Sunishi went to Tuyuhun. 】

[Li Daozong, the general manager of the march of Datong Road, has already defeated Suni and has been waiting for a long time. 】

[Li Daozong's deputy general Zhang Baoxiang captured Jieli alive, and Sunisu led his troops to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. 】

[On February 630th, AD, the Northern Turkic Khanate was completely destroyed. From the Yinshan Mountains in the south to the desert in the north, they were all included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. 】

……

Great Qin.

Ying Zheng took a pill of pill with an expressionless expression.

It mainly treats Qi stagnation and Qi stagnation and blood stasis.

……

Big man.

Liu Bang scratched his head.

"...I have Emperor Wen!"

Lu Pheasant glanced at him and remained silent.

……

The period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty
Liu Heng looked at Liu Qi and then at the sky.

Although he is a bit stupid, he is also a good emperor if he can control the rules and obey the orders.

……

The period of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty
Liu Qi hugged Liu Che.

"You have to work hard! Learn more from your great father! You know!"

Xiao Liuche looked up at him.

"What about you, Father?"

Liu Qili said confidently:
"Leave you such a big fortune!"

Xiao Liuche turned around and rolled his eyes.

That is the work of the great father!
……

The period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
Liu Che and Wei Qing looked at Huo Qubing, who held his head high.

"What a good boy, he is really quite handsome!"

Liu Che happily patted Huo Qubing on the shoulder and said happily:

"Much better than your uncle!"

The happy Wei Qing suddenly became unhappy.

It’s not okay to step on one and hold one in one hand!

Is it your Majesty? That's normal.

……

Northern Zhou Dynasty: Emperor Wu Period
Yu Wenyong looked at the sky for a long time without moving.

……

Sui Dynasty and Emperor Wen's period
Yang Jian looked at the sky and made up his mind.

……

Tang Dynasty and Emperor Gaozu's period
Li Yuan stared blankly at the sky.

"Hey……"

……

On the canopy.

Chang'an Tai Chi Hall.

Li Shimin, who was dressed in the uniform of the Sun and Moon Emperor, sat on the big seat with a smile.

His Highness's civil and military ministers also looked at the leaders in the middle of the royal road with smiles.

"Meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"

The envoys knelt down and kowtowed.

Then, the leader, King Gaochang, raised his head and said loudly:

"The Tang Dynasty unified the world!"

"The world is resounding, shaking ancient and modern times!"

"The twenty-nine countries including Gaochang, Khotan, Shule, and Kang have agreed."

"I would like to honor His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

"The name is: Tian Khan!"

……

[The demise of the Northern Turks severely impacted the leaders from all directions under their rule. 】

[They were shocked and admired that Tang Taizong defeated the powerful Turks in the north only three and a half years after taking the throne. 】

[On the second day of April in 630 AD, the kings of Gaochang, Khotan and other tribes from all over the world came to Chang'an and gathered in front of Taiji Palace. 】

[Together we present an unprecedented honorary title to Emperor Taizong Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty - "Tian Khan"]
