The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

"What should be reported is still a report. Try to say as little as possible like this."

Li Xiang left these words and went out to patrol the camp. Li Shimin has been operating in Datang for a long time. If all the people under his command are so proud, Li Shimin will find out sooner or later. Although Li Shimin will not deliberately deal with Li Xiang now. , but if someone regards Li Xiang as the emperor in advance, Li Shimin will not mind teaching these people a lesson, and even Li Xiang will not be able to save him by then.

It took a few days for Xue Yantuo's people to settle down here. Li Xiang gave them a number of tents and let them fend for themselves here. Except for the necessary food, you can give them the rest. You have to do it yourself. We can't possibly settle it for you. After all, we were enemies just a few days ago.

Ang Guertai also understood what the Tang army was thinking. Although they came to surrender, they knew exactly how many people died in the Tang Dynasty in the last battle. They were so angry just now that their eyes were red. Now you want people to treat you as a friend. Is there such a good thing in the world? It is already magnanimous to be able to take you in here and give you a bite to eat and drink.

The soldiers and people below were also very satisfied. After all, if they continued to stay in the hinterland of Xueyantuo, they might not even have anything to eat. Xueyantuo Khan collected all the food that should be collected, except for his own troops. Except, no one else can get the food.

On the twentieth day after these people arrived, Huo Qubing finally came from the south. In order to distinguish the Huo Qubing in history, Li Xiang changed this guy's name to Huo Tang, who is currently also in the first battalion. The commander-in-chief has more than two thousand people under his command.

Li Xiang didn't set off immediately, he was also waiting for this guy. This guy went on an expedition to Mobei in history and was very familiar with the situation there. Although the time is different now, the general situation is still the same. If he really goes on an expedition, Li Xiang will I have to take this guy with me.

"This is basically the situation on the Tuyuhun grassland. The grasslands of major families are often attacked by some people. Now they already want to sell the grasslands. Although they have also formed their own guards, the results are not very effective."

Huo Qubing said while eating.

When the grassland was auctioned, all the major families wanted to make a profit, so Li Xiang kicked them in. Little did he know that Li Xiang was raising a bandit on the grassland. These people would take whatever they saw, but except for the major Apart from the family's grassland, all other family's grasslands are safe.

The patriarchs of the major families also understood that they had fallen into Li Xiang's trap, but it was too difficult to figure it out now. They thought that the grassland was a place with rules like the Tang Dynasty, but how could Li Xiang tell them the rules? Woolen cloth? You have all kinds of advantages and have almost taken control of the politics of the Tang Dynasty.

Now that we have finally arrived in a new place, if we still live according to the previous rules, wouldn't our efforts be in vain? So Li Xiang let them suffer a good loss on the grassland, which can be regarded as slowly cutting off the flesh on your body.

In Li Xiang's mind, it is okay to make a little money whether it is from the Five Surnames, Qiwang or other major families. After all, serving as an official for thousands of miles is just for money, but if you want to influence politics, it is definitely not allowed. .

"How is the situation over there in Tubo? You have been on the grassland for a long time. The grassland and Tubo are also close to each other. You should be able to hear the wind over there, right?"

Li Xiang receives letters from Tubo every day, but as a superior, he cannot allow himself to just listen to information from one place. If so, he will easily be deceived, so all aspects of information must be collected. Once something is found to be wrong, Li Xiang had to send his own special envoy to investigate.

"The war is still going on. It is said that the chieftains on the plateau want to be independent, but the Tubo court is not willing. They have already transferred most of the troops, but neither side can do anything to the other. You punch me and I kick you. The two sides engage in a tug-of-war, with two fights every month.”

Speaking of things on the plateau, Huo Qubing didn't care that much. After all, that place had little to do with him. Except for a few words from the businessmen coming and going, no one cared about it. In the hearts of many people in the Tang Dynasty, Tubo was It is an extremely poor place. It is said that many people there do not even have a complete set of clothes. Why should we care about that place?

This is basically the same news that Li Xiang received. Now that various chieftains have been raised, they will never be able to tolerate reconciliation with the court. The most important thing is that Li Xiang did not give them the news, and their sons are still dead. How can we reconcile with the imperial court while staying in Chang'an City?

Songtsen Gampo had deep ambitions, and his men stood up to rebel. If he didn't suppress these people, it would be the biggest failure of his life, so this war would definitely continue, and Li Xiang didn't have a hand to spare. Before coming, it would also be in Li Xiang's interests to continue the war.

"After you come, rest for a few days. In another month, we will march north. This is the only chance to march. Although the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, it costs too much to send troops to the north and the supply line is too long. , we can only solve everything at once."

This is the most prepared battle Li Xiang has ever fought. In the past, he always started fighting wherever he went, and all kinds of preparations didn't matter. But this time, it was too far away from Chang'an City, and all kinds of supplies were not available. There is no way to obtain it locally, so we must not fight it a second time. If such a war happens again, the financial crisis will come.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I have the marching route in my mind and know how to go. In the next month, I will take people out to take a look. There should be no problem."

In Huo Qubing's memory, he is extremely familiar with this place, but after so many years, no one knows what changes will happen, so in the next month, Huo Qubing will definitely not be idle, riding his Kuai Ma has to travel thousands of miles to see how things have changed between then and now.

"Then you're going to have a hard time."

Li Xiang picked up his own glass, and the master and servant clinked a glass. Huo Qubing was not the kind of person who paid attention to etiquette, and his respect for Li Xiang came from the heart. He was more like a pair of friends. Li Xiang also enjoyed this relationship. .

Early the next morning, Huo Qubing set out with fifty cavalrymen. Angultai was still a little confused, didn't he need my people to scout the grassland?
