If a military general wants to continue to improve his official position, he has the only way to achieve military merit, so he is particularly sensitive to the word military merit.
In ancient China, what military commanders like most is naturally troubled times. If it is a peaceful and prosperous time, the status of military commanders is often not as high as that of civilian officials.
Every military general desires military merit, and Liu Lan is the same. His official position is not as high as that of Li Ji, Li Jing and other people, so he can only accumulate military merit again.
Seeing Liu Lan looking at him, Zhi Shensi Li couldn't help but look at him. Zhao Chen folded his fan and smiled softly: "Two generals, what military achievements, I can't say, but I can guarantee that in one year Within this period, no more than thirteen years of Zhenguan, military glory will fall into your hands, provided that you guard here for one year."
Zhi lost his ability to think and asked, "Do you want me or General Liu to guard here?"
"Yes, the current situation in Tuyuhun requires a general. Take a look, between you two, who is stationed here."
Liu Lan and Zhi Shisi were hesitant, but Liu Lan immediately said, "I'll do it. As long as what you say is true, I will station myself in Tuyuhun."
"It's okay. The general has lost his wife and children. I'm afraid the princess will be angry if we don't go back."
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "Okay, General Liu, nothing can go wrong in Tuyuhun within this year, and you will be the final decision-maker of Tuyuhun. As long as the tribes that join the Tuyuhun Autonomous Committee will be treated equally, if there is any If the Han people oppress them, you must come out and make the decision. If they oppress the Han people, you must also make the decision, and a bowl of water will be balanced."
When talking about the latter part, Zhao Chen spoke in a serious tone: "General Liu, this position is very important, and it is also the first year of the implementation of the new autonomy policy in Tuyuhun. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Only if the beginning is good, the rest can go smoothly. The entire framework can only be laid well, so absolutely, absolutely nothing can go wrong. If nothing goes wrong, when the time comes for the military merits to begin, I will play the part again and let you advance to another level."
Liu Lan was overjoyed and immediately clasped her fists: "Prince-in-law, please don't worry. If something goes wrong in Tuyuhun, I'll come and see you!"
Zhi lost his mind and didn't say anything. The border of Datang was not peaceful now, and he still had many opportunities.
"Consort, I don't understand something. We have given many things to these tribes. What should we do if they rebel against us one day?"
He lost his ability to think and spoke.
Zhao Chen laughed: "Don't worry, there is nothing important or critical among the things I helped. I still have it in my hands."
For example, for potatoes and sweet potatoes, a very important crop, Zhao Chen did not help at all. There were also other craftsmen, blacksmiths, and lime manufacturers. In other words, the core scientific and technological secrets were not leaked. Even This time the city was built not with cement, but with glutinous rice mixed in the ancient way.
Zhao Chen explained again that Liu Lan's army existed as a corps. In addition to training, it also needed to cultivate, which was somewhat similar to a production corps.
Zhao Chen didn't miss any details, and Liu Lan also listened carefully. He was 100% convinced of the Prince Consort. He had heard of the Prince Consort's name in Chang'an, not to mention this time, thousands of people defeated Tubo. Fifty thousand people captured Songtsen Gampo alive. Is this a great feat that ordinary people can accomplish?
If he fights a few more battles, it is estimated that Zhao Chen's military exploits can directly catch up with Li Jing's.
"Don't worry, Prince Consort, I've written it down, but there's one last question. What should we do with these more than 10,000 Tibetan prisoners?"
Zhao Chen looked at the busy figures on the plain ahead. Among them were more than 10,000 Tibetan prisoners.
"Consort, it's impossible for these more than 10,000 people to be returned to Tibet, right?"
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "More than 10,000 fresh troops, or elite soldiers, will I return them to Tubo? But if Tubo is really willing to bleed a lot and exchange for more than 10,000 cattle and sheep, then they must be exchanged."
Liu Lan was a little puzzled: "But, isn't it just to speed up Tubo's recovery?"
Zhao Chen shook his head: "I returned more than 10,000 people to Tibet, but I didn't say that I returned them to normal people."
Liu Lan was stunned, and Qin Huaidao and the others who were listening next to him were also stunned.
"Consort, how do you say this?"
Zhao Chen took out a piece of paper and handed it to Liu Lan.
"This is the recipe I wrote down before. If Tibet sends people to ransom prisoners, you can add these to their food."
"this is¡¡"
Zhao Chen¡¯s eyes were a little deep: ¡°General Liu, give them these to eat. In a few days, Tubo will only get more than 10,000 dead people.¡±
Liu Lan was startled and almost trembled with her hands, as was Zhi Huansi Li next to her.So surprised.
Qin Qiong¡¯s face was a bit unbearable, and she clasped her fists and said, ¡°Mr. Zhao, they are all prisoners after all. If we kill again, will it be¡±
"Old Qin, you are too kind. The kindness you show to the enemy on the battlefield is cruelty to yourself. Have you ever heard the story of the farmer and the snake? No, let me tell you a simpler story. There is a country called Germany. , there is a country called the Soviet Union, and a war broke out between the two countries. The soldiers of the Soviet Union defeated a squad of the other party in a war, and the last person was left. The other party begged for mercy, and the Soviet soldiers let him go. What do you think the final result was? What?"
Zhao Chen glanced at Qin Qiong and the others: "The final result is that this soldier was a sharpshooter. He intercepted them directly and shot the general to death with one arrow, which led to the failure of the Soviet Union in this war."
"If I let this group of Tibetan soldiers go today, will they not pick up spear weapons and mount fast horses to invade our territory and attack our people another day?"
"As long as they say no, I will let them go without saying a word!"
Qin Qiong struggled a bit on his face, but still sighed, Zhi Huan Si Li and Liu Lan and the others, but their expressions were normal.
"So, just leave this kind of thing to me. When the history books record it, I will be the one recorded. I will say that this prince-in-law was ruthless and poisoned more than 10,000 Tibetan soldiers."
"Mr. Zhao"
Qin Huaidao and the others spoke.
Zhao Chen stretched out his hand and interrupted them: "It doesn't matter. I don't care about this. It's just a record in the history books. It's up to future generations to comment on whether it's good or bad. What I'm pursuing now is the present."
Liu Lan nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, I will definitely implement your wishes without reservation. These more than 10,000 soldiers will not survive in Tubo."
Zhao Chen smiled: "Never do anything that helps the enemy. Tubo is a country full of ambitions, so we must always be on guard. General Liu, Tuyuhun is entrusted to you."
Zhao Chen clasped his fists.
"Mr. Zhao, you're welcome."
Zhao Chen stood on the top of the mountain with his hands clasped behind his hands. For a moment, he felt a little proud.
"Tuyuhun not only belongs to us now, but will also belong to us in the future. The whole world will belong to us."
Liu Lan smiled again and said: "Mr. Zhao, there is one more thing. This newly built city has not been named yet. Please name it, Mr. Zhao."
Naming a new city is a big deal.
The others looked at Zhao Chen. Zhao Chen thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Tuyuhun, as the western territory of our Tang Dynasty, will be officially included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty from now on. I will also defeat the Tubo and bring peace and tranquility here. In this case, it is called Let¡¯s go to Xining.¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
