In the past, the sentence of Zhuge Wuhou, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, "bow to the end of your life and die", has become the ruler of later generations of famous ministers, but all the scholars after entering the office, all take this as the motto, always forbid to wake up and spur their own body, loyal to the country, diligent in national affairs, so as to leave a name in history and live forever.
However, in addition, it is understandable and harmless to occasionally use the power and name in your hands to improve your own life, improve the status of your family, and give some convenience to relatives and friends.
As long as you don't go too far, don't treat the national law as child's play, and don't lose your awe of imperial power, then as a generous king, in the face of such small actions of his courtiers, it's good to occasionally knock on the side, and there is no need to take it too seriously.
Now, since it was Empress Wu who said that Shuofang had resisted the invasion of the Turkic army, defeated the Turks, annihilated all opponents, and captured the small Turkic Khan Kubli, then all this must be true.
Facing the sky, that is, the number of the Turkic army attacking Shuofang is somewhat exaggerated, and moreover, it is to defeat rather than completely annihilate the Turkic army, that's all, as for the little Turkic Khan Kubili, there is no doubt that he was captured alive, and no one doubts this point.
Because capturing alive is not the same as beheading, if you say that you killed Kublai in the midst of the chaos, just get a similar head and report it, in case one day Kublai jumps out alive and protests loudly, it is not a big deal.
Since it is a chaotic army, who can tell so well that the officers and men of the border army can be completely tricked and justified, and you can't do anything about them.
"In our eyes, the Turkic beards are scruffy one by one, and they all look similar, who can tell the difference" You see, how justified and arrogant, and so helpless, can't find a thorn.
To tell the truth, there are a few people who know Kubili However, since it was captured alive, it was very different.
Captured alive, that is to say, Kubli is still a big living person in front of him, and the big living person can speak, and he must be sent to the divine capital to sacrifice to the Taimiao.
As long as Kubli came to the Shendu alive, even if there was only one breath left, the Manchu civil and military forces had thousands of ways to pry Kubili's mouth open, so that he didn't even dare to omit a word about stealing other people's sheep when he was a child, and even peeking at his brother and sister-in-law's work at night.
They believed in Empress Wu, and at the same time, they also believed in the character of Qin Huaiyu and Wei Wenchang, so no one doubted Shuofang's victory, and they also had respect for Qin Huaiyu and Shuofang's border army.
You must know that Qin Huaiyu's subordinates, plus the government troops from all over the country whose combat effectiveness has deteriorated and the auxiliary soldiers of non-combatants, are only 12,000 people.
With this mixture of 12,000 men, they stubbornly blocked Kubile's iron cavalry, defeated their opponents, and captured the enemy chief Kubili alive.
This great victory is indeed commendable at a time when the enemy is in the middle of a stormy situation, wolf smoke is everywhere, and the enemy in the northwest is pressing, and it has played a great role in stabilizing the people's will and stimulating the army's morale.
In this way, even if Qin Huaiyu made some ambushes in the number of enemies killed, what would it be for, and no one of the civil and military officials would question it, they all pinched their noses and admitted it, and then plunged into the tide of universal celebration.
Even Zhou Xing, the secretary of the criminal department and Chenglai Junchen in the imperial history, among the four cool officials, squeezed out a smile, played haha, went with the flow, and praised and praised them a lot.
"The ministers congratulate the queen of heaven and congratulate the world" The ministers opened their mouths one after another, congratulating in unison.
However, these big and small foxes all have an extra heart, the first one is for Wu Houhe, and then he played a little scheming, not mentioning the Tang Dynasty, just for the world.
After the return of the destiny of the Wu, the country was governed in a good way, and the people knew how to make good use of it, so that there were three military orders of the Shuofang border army, and all of them were united in their hearts and achieved a brilliant victory Erhe is peaceful in the world, there is a great victory as a harbinger, and then the armies of all walks of life will be mighty, calm the ministers, and calm the four in one fell swoop, laying the foundation of eternity.
As for His Majesty the Emperor, who was willing to make a vase, he was forgotten by his discerning courtiers, intentionally or unintentionally.
The martial queen was overjoyed, her eyes were bright, her skin was crystal clear, and even her cheeks showed two flushes, which seemed to be extremely uncalm.
The depression of the past few days flashed, the heart was also open-minded, the blood of the whole body was flowing happily, and even the heart was too excited, so there was a strange desire, itchy, very uncomfortable, and it was urgent to find a cathartic gap.
Her expression was in a trance for a moment, and under the rippling heart, a touch of girlish shyness appeared in her beautiful eyes, and she couldn't help but think about the rude Huaiyi monk, and she couldn't help but think about the rude Huaiyi monk, and she couldn't wait to recruit him into the palace immediately, lie in his arms and let him rub it fiercely.
However, she was only in a trance for a moment, and then she also woke up and forcibly dispelled these chaotic thoughts.
In front of her is not her dormitory, but the center of power in the whole world, the Vientiane Shrine, and she is not a little woman who is leaning on the door and looking forward to her return.
She is the "king" who holds the authority of the world, and compared with the supreme power and throne, the relationship between men and women is not irrepressible and abandoned.
At the very least, there is a hierarchy of priorities that cannot be generalized.
She now had to consult with her ministers about the affairs of the state, that is, the aftermath and reward of Shuofang's great victory.
Since Qin Huaiyu and the others have won, they must be rewarded, there is no doubt about this, even if they are the veteran nobles of the Li Tang clan, the martial queen who has always rewarded and punished clearly will temporarily choose to forget.
What's more, among the heroes of Shuofang's great victory this time, according to Qin Huaiyu's performance in the Hongling Urgent Report, and verified and attached by the military Sima Wei Wenchang, the first credit is naturally Qin Huaiyu, the commander of Shuofang's three armies and the general of the Left Guard.
The Empress Wu has no objection to this, under normal circumstances, as long as the battle is won, the first merit belongs to the chief general of the first army, and as for the others, they can only share the second merit and the third and fourth What made Empress Wu quite satisfied was that Qin Huaiyu was very good at being a person, and listed the capture of Kubili's martial arts as a secondary merit, which was regarded as scratching the itch of Empress Wu, which made her feel very relieved.
Anyway, Wu Youji is also a member of the Wu family, and he is the nephew of the Empress Wu's mother's family As for who actually captured Kubili, Empress Wu didn't care at all.
Empress Wu frowned slightly, because the name of the third hero next was indeed too unfamiliar to her.
Zhao is invincible, and he is not the son of a family Thinking about it carefully, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, I have never heard of the existence of the surname Zhao in Jiangmen, and there is a Zhao family in the Gaomen of Shandong and Guanlonghao in the world Moreover, according to Qin Huaiyu, this Zhao Wushu is a pawn of the Yangzhou Mansion Army, who was rotated more than two years ago, and it has been less than a month since he was promoted to the position of brigade commander because of his merits, and he doesn't look like a person with a background.
Empress Wu was quite curious about Zhao Wuving, because most of the generals in the court were focused on Li Tang, and foreign generals such as Heiya Changzhi and Shazha Zhongyi who did not have a clear position were difficult to be convinced by the officers and soldiers of the three armies because of their background.
Therefore, Empress Wu couldn't help but look forward to this Yangzhou Mansion military marshal who was suspected of being from a poor family and was both wise and brave, and had the idea of collecting it for her own use
