Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 480

The fourth year of Zhenguan in history was a colorful year. Li Shimin destroyed the Turks in this year and began to walk on the road of heaven khan.

And the current four years of Zhenguan are even more colorful than in history.

Goguryeo is about to fall, Tuyuhun is about to fall, the Dangxiang ministries are about to fall, the tribes of Yunnan are about to fall, and the Western Turks are about to fall. Even the main force on the Tubo plateau is also defeated in Guanzhong.

There are also many small countries like Silla, Baekje, Wa Kingdom, Linyi Kingdom, etc., who have surrendered. Datang will soon become the well-deserved overlord of Asia, which is much more than the name of a Tian Khan.

In the city of Chang'an, after learning that the battle had been decided, Empress Changsun finally let go of her hanging heart. Fang Xuanling asked her to drive back to the palace, and only a few servants and members of the art troupe were escorting her, because the palace guards, It is still on the battlefield outside the city. This war has almost exhausted all the manpower in Guanzhong.

Lu Dongzan was tied up, and Fang Xuanling would temporarily lock him up in the sky prison in the imperial city. After all, he was a high-ranking official at the Tubo prime minister level, so it was up to Li Shimin to decide how to deal with him.

As for the rest, the courtiers are not polite.

The undamaged Tubo plateau horses are valuable spoils, there are three 10,000+ horses!As for the baggage carried on the horse, there is not much. The big guys basically look down on them, but there are 10,000+ dead horses. Everyone thinks that they should not be wasted. Divide the meat for the people who participated in the war, and take it back for a tooth sacrifice. A horse is good A few hundred catties of meat, even if more than 200 million people come to share, one person can share a lot.

Of course, the cleaning of the battlefield is more than that. Some saddles, ironware, and all valuables on the Tubo soldiers must be cleaned up. This victory belongs to all the people, and everyone should enjoy the benefits of the spoils.

The clean and tidy Tubo soldiers who were captured will be temporarily scattered by Fang Xuanling and assigned to mines mined by several major government offices. Senior generals will be temporarily detained in prisons. In fact, according to the citizenship system of the Tang Dynasty, They all belong to the third-class citizens. Afterwards, Li Shimin may reward some of them to the meritorious ministers.

Sun Xiangfu was too lazy to watch everyone busy at the scene. Regarding the "Battle of Yanping Gate" that may be recorded in history, he had some other understandings, and he needed to go back and think about it for a while.

When he was going down the city wall, he saw Yan Liben's huge easel. This guy had been painting since the beginning of the war. For several hours, he had completely painted the whole scene.

Seeing Sun Xiangfu looking over, Yan Liben hurriedly collected his pen and said, "Does Dudu Sun have any poems to mention?"

"No, it would be great if you could draw the differences between the costumes of the ethnic minorities who participated in the war..."

Sun Xiangfu waved his hand, gave a hint, and then turned to leave. His suggestion made Yan Liben's eyes shine. The people participating in the war this time were many people who had newly moved from ethnic minorities from all over the world. If it is highlighted above, then this is a painting of great national unity and fighting together, and its political significance will be even higher.

For this kind of unilateral massacre-style battle, Sun Xiangfu felt that there was nothing to praise. The key point is that Sun Xiangfu did not regard these Tubo people as foreigners. Divided Inherent Territory too.

After busy work, it is very important to go home to accompany the children. Their babbling and smiling faces can make Sun Xiangfu forget the bloody scenes on the battlefield.

Hongmei lost to Chuntao. Although she gave birth to a child a few days earlier, she gave birth to a daughter. Therefore, the title of Duke of Shanyang was given to Chuntao's child, Sun Feng. The name means a bumper harvest. .

Because of the title issue, Hongmei was unhappy for a long time, until Sun Xiangfu came back and spoiled her precious daughter Sun Wanyu so much that she felt better.

Not to mention, among the four children, the second daughter, Sun Wanyu, who looks the most like Sun Xiangfu, is more than two months old, her brows, eyes and head are already rounded, as if carved out of Sun Xiangfu's mold. Regardless of gender, other people thought it was a boy, even Yu Xiu'er, and because of her appearance, there was no need to spoil this child.

The one-year-old eldest son, Sun Jing, and eldest daughter, Sun Wanting, already know how to walk erratically. I can't speak clearly, some short words, the enunciation is still clear, there is no logic, I like to cling to people the most, and I always have to hold something in my hand.

As soon as Sun Xiangfu came back to his house, he started playing with them in his play hall, so he couldn't help but accompany them!The war in the east is still going on!After the matter in Chang'an was settled, he had to go back to Shanyang.

"Husband, you came back earlier than the concubine. The empress was still looking for your people in the imperial city just now!"

After Yu Xiu'er returned home, she glanced at the two little guys sleeping in the stroller, walked up to Sun Xiangfu who was playing with the two big guys on the slide, and said.

"Why, do you want to be rewarded for meritorious deeds? Then just give my girl Wanyu a title of county lord or something."

When Sun Xiangfu said this, Hongmei, who was shaking the stroller, suddenly had a happy face, and looked at Yu Xiu'er expectantly.

Yu Xiu'er shook her head with a smile and said, "For such a reward, His Majesty has to come in person. The empress just wants to ask you how to deal with the matter in Yunnan."

"Continue to fight what needs to be fought! We have to be convinced before we can implement our policy. However, the court still has to send a letter to General Chai, and Wang Hao must take it. This person is too dangerous."

Speaking of this, Yu Xiu'er thought of Zhang Ruyan again. Ever since she handed the letter to Yu Xiu'er, she was taken by the secret guards for questioning. Now she has been locked in a cell in the palace. Now, the things on the letter have been verified. Empress Changsun talked to Yu Xiu'er. Although this person was somewhat involved in a rebellion like Zhang Cheng, but he was able to hand over the letter in time, which shows that he is not a bad person.

"Well, sister of the Zhang family, how to deal with it?"

"This matter has nothing to do with her, let it go! However, before Wang Hao is executed, he will be placed under residential surveillance, and Zhang Cheng may be caught."

"Husband, don't you have any other ideas?"

"Other ideas? Should I have any ideas? Oh, yes, this is the girl Cheng Chumo fell in love with. He begged me to ask you to help recruit her into the art troupe."

"Aha!"

When Yu Xiu'er heard this, she looked disappointed. It turned out that she had misunderstood.

Seeing Yu Xiuer's face, Sun Xiangfu knew that she was probably planning to take a concubine for him again, but it reminded him of what happened to Zilan before, and asked, "Zhang Ke has been following me around all these years, did he do his best?" Shaoli, he now has the status of a military officer of Captain Zhiguo. It is not a loss for Zilan girl to marry him as his wife. If she agrees, you can arrange their marriage!
By the way, there are also those old members of the guard. This time, they have made great contributions to Goguryeo, and His Majesty will definitely reward them in return. Moreover, they are not short of money. You have a lot of contacts in this area, so help them Make arrangements for the marriage. They have been born and died for our family for several years, so we can't treat them badly. "

"Well, the concubine will be able to handle it later. They belong to our Sun's mansion. I'm afraid there are many official women who are willing to marry them as wives! But you, the husband, are a dignified state. There are only one wife and two concubines in your family. , It’s a bit outrageous, now, the concubine is the highest-ranking female official in the Tang Dynasty, if someone scolds her as a jealous woman..."

As soon as Yu Xiuer mentioned this question, Sun Xiangfu had no choice but to interrupt him. Among the nobles at the level of the Duke of the Tang Dynasty, Fang Xuanling only had one wife, and the rest were concubines in the double digits. , basically accounted for the majority. It was rare for Sun Xiangfu to be so young and strong that he only took two of his wife's dowry maids as concubines.

"Uh, that, Xiu'er! I can't just take in a few more concubines for my husband because of your face! Shouldn't the relationship between people be based on feelings... "

With enough food and clothing, the country is safe and the people are safe, everyone will think about how to have more children. This is a common problem of ancient people, and Yu Xiuer is not immune.

Therefore, the topic finally shifted successfully from concubinage to fertility issues.

The Sun family had only two males in the present age, and because Sun Deshou was to be a son-in-law, it was impossible for the Sun family to spread the branches and breed many men.

Then, the important task of growing the Sun family falls on Sun Xiangfu alone. Since he is unwilling to take concubines, then to grow the family, he can only have more children with the existing one wife and two concubines. The parting is imminent. Naturally, the task of having a child had to be completed quickly, so Sun Xiangfu wanted to ask someone to help him buy all kinds of whips on the street, not firecracker whips!
Before leaving, Sun Xiangfu called all the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture to hold a meeting, and arranged in advance for next year's spring plowing. Since there are now more people in Guanzhong to support, and it is estimated that the war will not end next year, Goguryeo may A large amount of food output is required, so in terms of crops, food is still the main crop.

Anyway, this year's high-quality wheat seeds have been left behind. Next year, the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture only need to arrange the cultivation according to this year's plan. After all, the officials of the Ministry of Agriculture have detailed records of the whole process of planting wheat, and there is happiness The experienced farmers in the village are the base, and the people in Guanzhong can't just rely on the help of the army. After all, the intensive farming here has been implemented for several years. With the help of a large number of useful farm tools, they themselves have almost mastered and adapted to it. A slightly more complex farming technique.

Ten days later, Sun Xiangfu returned to Shanyang again, and during this period, Li Shimin's mood was ups and downs.

The news that Chang'an was raided by 10,000+ Tubo cavalry almost made him bleed for the second time, but the results of the battle almost made him jump into the sky with joy.

Tubo, the most difficult enemy of the Tang Dynasty, was crippled by the First World War, and the price paid was almost negligible. Without these two 10,000+ young and strong population, he was a little worried about the women on the plateau. Come, Song Tsanganbu's tribute memorial will arrive in Chang'an in a short time.

As for Wang Lin's actions, Wang Hao's series of schemes were revealed, which can be regarded as touching Li Shimin's rebellion. Therefore, the entire Taiyuan Wang family needs to bear his anger. Now, Wang Rui, whose eldest son died just now, is worrying. , How to solve the complex situation facing Wang.

Therefore, as soon as Sun Xiangfu returned to Shanyang, he was visited by him again and again, and many things were slowly negotiated.

The entire October was a victory, and when the time entered November, the great news of Tang Sifang also began to come.

The first thing to arrive is the battle report of the Western Turks. Yibibala successfully killed Mo Heduo, and was successfully killed by the multi-national coalition led by Cheng Yaojin, led by the Tang Army. Why do these small countries support Datang? That's because Datang controls here, unlike Western Turks who only know about exploitation. Datang will help develop the local people's livelihood and economy, and the taxes collected will be very low.

In this battle, the Tang army captured more than [-] people from the Yibibala tribe, gathered more than [-] small tribes returned by the Western Turks, with a total population of more than [-], and millions of cattle and sheep. They actually occupied Suiye City and the surrounding area for thousands of miles. When Sun Xiangfu forwarded this battle report to Li Shimin, he once again suggested that he set up the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate to govern the Western Turks, and let Cheng Yaojin be the minister of Kucha and Khotan. Dushan, Qiemo, Tocharo, Yanqi, Shiguo, Shiguo, Heguo, Muguo, Kangguo, the former lands, revoke the national system of these small countries, set up the governor's office, prefectures and counties, and make the entire western plate more closely The control is in the hands of the imperial court.

As for the good news about Li Ji who captured Fuyun, and Niu Jinda, who forced all the coalition forces of the party to nowhere to escape, and finally captured them all, they first spread to Chang'an. I am afraid that now they have each escorted 10,000+ prisoners. Guanzhong, but before Li Shimin's Eastern Expedition ended, all the top figures of several important forces in the surrounding forces were invited to Chang'an to eat in prison.
