This time, the Turks suffered a great defeat, and most of the elite iron cavalry was lost, and it was impossible to recover without ten or eight years.
And Mo Si had no intention of competing with the Tang Dynasty, and was bent on fighting wits and courage with those powerful tribal leaders to defend his throne.
Although he claims to be the son-in-law of the Sirius God and the spokesperson of the Sirius God in the human world, he was born to lead the Turks to conquer the Quartet and shock the universe.
However, these nonsense words cannot be taken seriously, and can only fool those ordinary herdsmen, and for those Turkic nobles, they can only "hehe".
When he was strong, the Turks couldn't beat him, so they had to reluctantly succumb to his force, pinching his nose and acknowledging his noble bloodline and respected identity, and now he has lost his troops and lost his strength, and he is still not the spokesman of the Sirius God, so he can only do it first, and test it with his fists.
Mo Si has no intention of caring about other things, and he is unable to invade the south, and in the next ten years, there will be no more war in the northern land of the Tang Dynasty.
This brought time for the border people in the north to recuperate, and also relieved the pressure on the Tang Empire, which no longer had to spend a lot of troops and money and food.
As the boss of the Siyi Alliance, Mo Si is now wilting like a chamberlain in the palace, so the status of the Tubo people instantly becomes embarrassing.
I want to continue the war with Datang, but it is difficult to support the war with Datang alone.
It is conceivable that with Qinling's resourcefulness, he will definitely not insist on fighting to the death, and the most likely outcome is to retreat quietly and quietly.
In this way, it is enough for the four towns of Anxi to have Lou Shide to guard it, and Wang Xiaojie is sitting in Longyou as Lou Shide's backup, and the west can be said to be worry-free.
As for the Northland, the two armies totaling 300,000 have already set off, although the war has ended because the Turks have been defeated by Qin Huaiyu, but the army still has to go to the cities of the Northland, declare the Tianwei of the Tang Dynasty, and show the barbarians in the Northland.
There is not only one Turk outside the northern frontier of the Tang Dynasty, but also the Xi people, Khitan and other barbarians, the army declares its power outside the country, deterring the people, lest they all think that the Tang Dynasty has declined, and they all want to take a bite.
After Wu Sansi handles all the affairs in the north and negotiates with Mo Si, and gets back the little bastard of Wu Yizong, he can make Hei Yan Changzhi lead 50,000 troops to sit in Yunzhou, and then return to the dynasty with a large army.
As for Shuofang, it is not appropriate for Qin Huaiyu to stay there any longer, but he can order the veteran Sha Zha Zhongyi to lead 50,000 troops to inspect the cities of Shuozhou and lead the defense of Shuozhou.
Qin Huaiyu and the Shuofang defenders, although the three-year period of the border has not yet arrived, but after all, they have made a great contribution to the world, and the merit is in the community, and a special decree can be issued to order them to return to the capital in advance.
At that time, I will use the most solemn ceremony to greet the triumphant soldiers, even if it is a poor search of the treasury, it will not chill the hearts of the meritorious officials.
The plan has been decided, and the Empress Wu felt that "it is better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone", so she ordered Shangguan Wan'er to pass on the message and invite the prime ministers of the government hall to come and discuss the celebration of the achievement.
Since Zhao Wudi left the small temple that day, his heart was like an arrow, and he couldn't wait for his wings to fly to Shuofang immediately, so that he could talk to Mo'er.
Therefore, he did not take the official road completely, but took the shortcut many times after asking the road, and although the path was not as wide and flat as the official road, it was much closer, saving many days of travel.
Because of this, he missed the army with Shazha's loyalty, but it also saved a lot of trouble.
Along the way, day and night, because of the hurry, missed the place to stay many times, can only stay in the farmhouse, or find a cave and a broken temple to make do, it is also very hard.
Thousands of miles of land, although relying on the foot strength of the big food BMW, but also walked a lot of time, until the end of September, before entering the Shuozhou territory.
At the end of September, when the gods are considered to be at the intersection of autumn and winter, the yellow leaves are withering, the cold wind is cold, and the eyes are full of desolation and dilapidation, but it is not yet the time for snow.
But Shuozhou is different, it is even colder than when Zhao Wudi left, and it is desperately cold.
As far as the eye can see, the four fields are white, there is hardly a trace of variegation, and the leaves are withered, leaving only bare branches, wrapped in ice and snow, crystal clear.
Even the farmhouse's thatched hut was covered in snow, and if it weren't for the exposed earthen walls and hills, it wouldn't make much difference.
There were no pedestrians, no signs of livestock, no birds even in the sky, and the sky was empty, except for goose-feathered snowflakes.
The snow is everywhere, and it is impossible to distinguish which is the road and the field, but fortunately, Shuozhou is all dry land, and the rivers are scarce, so if you take the wrong road, you will not fall into the ice hole.
The red lady is a big eater, with thick bones and a taller physique, stepping on the thick snow, but she will not be trapped by the snow nest.
One person and one horse, trekking hard in the vast snowfield, when he was hungry, Zhao Wudi ate a little dry food, and then fed some fine food to the red lady.
When I was thirsty, because of the cold weather, even the water in the cowhide bag had frozen, so I could only wait until I met a farmer to ask for some hot water to quench my thirst.
Fortunately, there is still wine, Zhao Wudi has no shortage of money in hand because of the gift of Princess Taiping and Li Ruoxi's generosity, and in order to cope with the extreme cold in Shuozhou, he prepared a lot of good wine in advance.
And the red lady is worthy of being a BMW, and she does not refuse the wine, along the way, she drinks a few sips from time to time, and the drink is delicious, one person and one horse, as if she has become a pair of drinking friends.
Zhao Wudi was stationed in the snow field, looking at the city that appeared in front of him, and his heart was full of emotion.
With the vague memory in my mind, this city should be called Xincheng, a county seat under the rule of Shuozhou, and more importantly, Xincheng is not far from Shuofang.
To the north of the new city, the fast horse can reach Shuofang in just one day, even if the snow is falling and the road is difficult, it is just one more day.
Two tears slipped down the corners of his eyes, and when they fell to his chest, they had quietly condensed into crystal clear ice crystals, Zhao Wushu copied them, caught the crystal ice crystals, and put them in his mouth.
The crystal ice crystals are cold in the mouth, and then, slowly melting, there is a hint of bitterness, and there is also a touch of sweetness, that is, the taste of acacia, flowing down the throat and reaching the heart Zhao Wudi lightly kicked the stirrup, and the red lady understood what he meant, screamed with a "grunt", happily opened her four hooves, and ran towards the south gate of the new city.
Heavy snow was falling, and it was sprinkled, blocking the road and blocking people's vision.
The city gate of the south gate of the new city was wide open, and only more than a dozen border soldiers were lying on their backs, hiding in the hole of the city gate, holding the horse lance in their arms, holding their hands in their sleeves, and surrounding a bonfire to keep warm, to resist the cold air in the sky.
Opening the city gate is just a convention, however, they don't think that there will be people who are not afraid of death to go out of the city in this kind of ghost weather, as for entering the city, hehe, the snow is covering the earth, the four fields are vast, and even the roads can't be distinguished, how can anyone cross this vast snowfield:
