Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 200 Rich Booty
Because the more than 2000 Khitan cavalry guarding the royal city were defeated so quickly, the Khitans in the Chifeng royal city had no time to escape, let alone flee with their cattle, sheep and horses. Therefore, the spoils Li Fei got in this battle were huge. .

Chifeng Royal City is the core of Khitan, even if all the young and strong population is removed, there are still more than 7000 people mainly women and children. Excluding the 2000 people who were killed because of resistance, the number of people captured by Li Fei is still more than 5000. Thirty-five thousand people were killed.

In addition to the population, there are more than ten times more cattle and sheep than the population.

It's a pity that the last day of winter has just passed. If it were to rush into the Chifeng King City in autumn, the number of cattle and sheep would be at least more than 100 million. However, after a winter of consumption, a large number of cattle and sheep were consumed, and Huaixiu Khan took a large number of cattle and sheep as rations when he went out to fight, and now there are only 40 to [-].

What Li Fei valued more than cattle and sheep were horses.

Because horses are the resources that the Khitan people rely on for war, they are strictly forbidden to eat horses except for old and weak horses. There are still more than 7 horses in the entire Chifeng City, although most of the adult horses were taken out by Huaixiu Khan Most of the remaining horses are mares and pony cubs, but there are still no less than [-] good horses that can go to the battlefield.

The most common horse costs ten guan, and a good horse that can go to the battlefield costs more than 30 guan. There are more than 7 horses in total, equivalent to a total value of no less than 100 million guan.

There are nearly 40 cattle and sheep, and the total price is also 50 million.

In addition, although Khitan does not circulate much gold, silver and copper coins, they need to use them for transactions with Tang merchants, and Khitan has plundered around for so many years, and has captured several prefectures and counties of Datang. Some, and the rest are all piled up in the royal city, which is also cheaper for Li Fei, and the value is more than 20 guan.

In other words, not counting the wealth of the population, Li Fei also made a fortune of 70 million in this battle.

"Hey, these were supposed to be An Lushan's trophies, but I didn't expect them to be cheap!" Li Fei smiled excitedly.

He could fully imagine what An Lushan's face would be like after he defeated Huaixiu Khan and other three coalition forces, and he would be mad when he got the news that Khitan King City was attacked by him first.

With so many people and spoils of war, Li Fei can walk no faster than ordinary people, but Li Fei is not in a hurry.As far as the three thousand Anton iron cavalry he brought, counting the blessing of the god arm crossbow, they were no worse than the tens of thousands of elite Khitan cavalry.As for the one that was fighting with Huaixiu Khan and An Lushan's army, it would be a matter of whether they could win or repel An Lushan, but Li Fei thought that was impossible.

Chifeng King City is about 200 miles away from the Andong border, and it takes about three days to walk.

On the second day, Princess Yangu woke up.

Because seriously injured people can't be too bumpy, Li Fei asked someone to make a stretcher. Princess Yangu and the seriously injured Anton Iron Knight soldier were both lying on the stretcher and asked to be carried.

Four Khitan women carried Princess Yangu's stretcher. Although the women's physical strength was weak, the four of them did not have much pressure to share. Moreover, there were more than 3 Khitan women and children captured, and most of them were carried by Khitan women.

The moment she opened her eyes, Princess Yangu couldn't believe that she was still alive. The moment the cold arrow passed through her body, she clearly felt the passing of life.

Because she was lying on a stretcher with a blanket under her body and a piece of animal skin covering her body, Princess Yangu could only see things within a short distance around her. All she saw were Khitan people, and she was still fantasizing about Khitan The warriors defeated Datang's demons and saved Wangcheng, and they are now taking them back to a safe place.

"Which Khitan warrior saved me?" Princess Yangu asked a Khitan woman next to her.

"This—" The Khitan woman looked embarrassed and couldn't speak for a while.

At this time, the sound of horseshoes approached, and Li Fei rode to the side with a dozen soldiers of Anton Cavalry.

"I saved you!" Li Fei stared at Princess Yangu coldly and said.

Princess Yangu's eyes widened in an instant. She had a deep memory of Li Fei. It was this Great Tang general who led the Great Tang's iron cavalry to attack their royal city, brewing the slaughter in the royal city. She just wanted to kill this great Tang. In the process of General Tang, he was shot through the body with an arrow by this Great Tang general.

Hatred, anger, and humiliation made Princess Yangu's originally pale cheeks blush.

"It's you—why didn't you kill me, and you wanted to save me, because you wanted to humiliate me!" Princess Yan Gu asked angrily, gritted her teeth.

Although she lived in Wangcheng since she was a child, she hasn't seen much cruelty, but it doesn't mean she doesn't know anything. Every year when her father goes out to fight, he brings back many women from other tribes, and even some women from the Tang Dynasty. Everyone has heard of it.

"Humiliate you? Wrong, save you because you are the princess of Khitan, and you are of value to me!" Li Fei was very direct, and did not hide his intention to use Princess Yangu at all.

"What's the difference between humiliation and humiliation? I, Yeluyan, is the daughter of Father Khan. I would rather die than be used by you." Princess Yangu's face was full of determination. Endless humiliation, she would rather die.

"Dead? I advise you not to die, otherwise I will let a thousand Khitan women and children be buried with you, including them!" Li Fei said lightly, and pointed to the four who were helping Princess Yangu carry the stretcher. The Khitan women were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their hands shook, they almost threw Princess Yanu off the stretcher.

"It's done, don't drop him to death, and you will be buried with him." Li Fei said coldly to the four Khitan women who were carrying the stretcher.

In fact, Li Fei was also shocked just now, for fear that Princess Yangu would fall down and die.He said that a thousand Khitan women and children were buried with him, of course to scare Princess Yanu.Princess Yangu was a prisoner, and the Tang general who commanded the army, could not appease Princess Yangu. He could only make her give up the idea of ​​suicide by threatening.

Li Fei's threat was of course useful. Princess Yangu's cheeks turned pale and green. In the end, that decisive aura faded, which meant that she couldn't bear to let a thousand Khitan women and children be buried with her and gave up. Thoughts of suicide.

"You devil, Changshengtian will not let you go." Princess Yangu could only curse bitterly.

"Devil?" Li Fei sneered and said, "You Khitan people will also call me a demon? Just because I broke through your royal city and captured you? It's ridiculous!"

"You Khitan people are also a branch of the grassland. Isn't the grassland the place where the survival of the fittest and the strong are respected? You Khitan fight every year, against other tribes around you, even against the Tang Dynasty. The other tribes you defeated, killed other tribes. Were you not demons when you were tribal people? You broke through the border counties of the Tang Dynasty, beheaded the young and strong, and captured the women and children of the Tang Dynasty. Is it different from what I am doing now? You Khitan have attacked me Anton twice in the past few months On the border, more than 500 innocent people in Anton were slaughtered, and if there are real demons, you Khitans are much more ruthless than me!"

"Girl, don't be naive, now you Khitan and Datang are still fighting each other, they are enemies!" Li Fei reminded with a smile.

Princess Yangu was blocked by Li Fei's words and couldn't give any reason to refute.

After a while, Princess Yangu said forcefully: "Our Khitans have always surrendered to the Great Tang, and those who didn't want to be enemies with the Great Tang were persecuted by your Great Tang. Too much, Father Khan has no choice but to make an enemy of Tang, we Khitan are not wrong!"

After giving some reasons, Princess Yangu felt better.

"Naive!" Li Fei smiled disdainfully: "Perhaps you have no choice but to become enemies with Datang, but it is also the result of your own stupidity, which is just taken advantage of by others. Don't look at what your Khitans are. How can the Great Tang Dynasty do such nasty things? Besides, trapping and killing your ordinary Khitan tribes, what good is it for Datang? Isn't it good to trap and kill your ordinary Khitan tribe? Your father Khan, and then sent heavy troops to directly crush your Khitan? You never sent people to Chang'an City to question the Emperor of Tang, but directly reversed it. You only fell into the trap of some people raising their own self-esteem, which is pitiful .”

Speaking of the latter, Li Fei sighed.

The news revealed by Li Fei was so shocking that Princess Yangu was stunned.

"Trap? I don't believe it was someone's trap. It's you, the Tang Dynasty, who want to destroy my entire Khitan clan!" Princess Yangu insisted on her own ideas.

"It doesn't matter what you think, anyway, if the Xi clan is defeated, your Khitan will also be defeated." Li Fei sighed: "After a while, An Lushan will bring the Xi clan he conquered and your Khitan clan to raise the flag to rebel. You will know who is raising the thief's self-esteem, and whose trap it is!"

Li Fei's words deliberately planted a seed in Princess Yangu's heart for him to use in the future.After finishing speaking, he ignored Princess Yangu and rode away with his subordinates.
