Chapter 434: Differentiation and Disintegration


In the winter of the first year of Xianqing, Su Dingfang led his subordinates Su Dawei, Su Qingjie, Lou Shide, Wang Xiaojie and others to march to the Irtysh River, that is, the Irtysh River in northern Xinjiang in later generations.Upon hearing the news, the Western Turkic Shabala Khan led 100,000 iron horsemen to the decisive battle.Su Dingfang led 10,000 Tang troops, and Hui and other servant armies met the enemy head-on with the Western Turks.At the beginning of the battle, Ashina Helu despised Su Dingfang's small number of people, and ordered the left and right wings to take the rear road of the Tang army, wanting to surround and annihilate it.Su Dingfang ordered Su Dawei to occupy the commanding heights and concentrate the infantry spears into a hedgehog array.At the same time, he personally led the Yue Yue to ride in the north flat ground and lined up.The Turkic army launched three charges against the Tang army's foot soldiers, but failed to break through Su Dawei's stubbornly defended line.I was frustrated for a while.Su Dingfang took advantage of the situation to attack and launched a fierce battle on a thirty-mile-long front.Tens of thousands of Turks were killed, and their chief was killed, and the Turkic army was in chaos, and they hurriedly retreated north and fled.The Tang army pursued and captured innumerable.By dawn on the second day, Su Dingfang reorganized his army and fought again.The Western Turkic Huluwu and other five crossbows were lost, and the people came to surrender.At this point, the Western Turks were in full swing, and Ashina Helu and Qu Lu of the Mukun tribe led hundreds of horsemen to flee westward.The remaining five army troops heard of the defeat of Shabala Khan and fled in all directions.Su Dingfang ordered the deputy generals Xiao Siye and Po Run to lead the servants of various ministries to chase the evil ros river, that is, the west of the Ili River in the later generations, and chase the defeated army.He and Su Dawei and Ren Yaxiang led the newly surrendered Hu servants to intercept the Turkic rear.It was snowing heavily, and the snow was two feet deep.Someone from the ministry asked for a break, but was rejected by Su Dingfang.The Tang army marched through the snow overnight, day and night, harvesting herdsmen and livestock scattered by the Turks along the way.It was driven straight into the Shuanghe River and approached the Golden Tooth Mountain, where the tooth tent of the Ashina Helu Khan was located.The Golden Tooth Mountain is west of what is later Kyrgyzstan.Here, Su Dingfang once again exerted his blitzkrieg tactics with soldiers like gods, and the iron cavalry soared wildly, invading like fire.Defeated the tens of thousands of Turkic lions of the most elite of Ashina Helu's guards in the tooth tent.Ashina Helu was shocked for a few days, and he was shocked and led the rest of his troops to continue to flee.Su Dawei was the vanguard of the Tang army, and led his troops to chase down the broken leaves and water, and captured the rest of the Shabaluo Khan.Ashina Helu was left with only his son Yu Yun and son-in-law Yan Si and other more than ten horsemen who fled overnight to Sulu City in the northwest of Shiguo, that is, the area around Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan in the future.The city lord of Su Ducheng, Yi Fu Daguan, was afraid that the Tang Dynasty would be powerful to Su Dawei, so he designed to trap Ashina Helu and others and hand them over, and asked the Tang Dynasty to surrender.At this point, the Western Turks were declared extinct.The Tang army's expedition to the Western Turks "collected more than 400,000 people and animals."

Destroy the power of the Turks and deter the Western Regions.Biao Shan's history.Rumbling ~ The uniform military boots stepped on the ground, bringing a strange rhythmic sound.The Hu people who were cowering in the camp tent cast respectful and awe-inspiring glances at the Tang army who walked by.After Su Dawei led people to inspect the circle, he walked back to his barracks, casually put the helmet he had taken off on the table, and let out a long breath.The clothes and armor on his body are not light, and after walking around Su Lu City, he actually feels steaming in this winter month."

Ami."

Someone shouted outside the door.Su Dawei heard Su Qingjie's voice, and said without raising his head: "Come in." ”Su Qingjie and Ashina Daozhen walked in one after another, followed by a cowering person.Su Dawei was holding a pen in his hand and was about to write something on the wooden tablet, when he heard footsteps and looked up, he saw at a glance that behind them was Su Qingjie, the lord of Su City.Su Dawei's gaze immediately sharpened.said casually: "It's so late, and the city lord hasn't rested yet?"

”Migrate qi and nourish the body.From the sixth year of Yonghui to the first year of Xianqing, Su Dawei has been a qualified soldier for nearly two years.This conquest made him have a little more iron and blood on his body, and he sat there, seemingly casual, but he was not angry and arrogant.The official was about forty years old, with a fat head and big ears, and a shiny face.If you don't know that he is the lord of the city, you are afraid that you will think that he is a cunning merchant.He came to visit tonight on purpose, and even changed into a Tang costume that he got out of nowhere, which looked a little out of nowhere.Seeing Su Dawei asking, a smile appeared on the face of the Yi Daguan, his eyes narrowed into slits, and he stroked his chest with his hand and bowed: "The general has worked hard, the villain wants the general and the little generals under his command, all the way through the dust, and they have not had time to rest, our Su Ducheng is not comparable to a big country, but we also want to comfort the general, so we have prepared some local products......

There is also fine wine, and an orchid who can dance the Hu Xuan dance, and if the general does not dislike it, I want to feast the general in the city tomorrow. ”Su Dawei stared at each other, with a smile on his face.The official looked up in some surprise, and when he came into contact with Su Dawei's eyes, he hurriedly lowered his head: "General, the villain has no other thoughts, if the general is busy with military affairs, please accept the local products prepared below." ”After speaking, his throat moved, and he didn't dare to come out.From his lowered forehead, fine beads of sweat could be faintly seen.Su Dawei was silent for a moment, and finally nodded with a smile: "The city lord has a heart, on such a cold day, he actually sweats so much." ”"Hehe, the general destroyed the Eastern Turks in a war, and made this immortal achievement, in my heart, it is to be recorded in history, I am afraid that it will be comparable to General Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty, and I can see the face of the general, the villain is excited for a while, and I can't help it!"

Yi Fu Daguan Tang spoke quite skillfully, patting the horse's ass while accompanying the flattering smile.The flattery is undisguised."

The city lord has a good idea, I thank you first, and the things will be handed over to the sergeant under my account, and there will be no need for a wine banquet.""

Yes, yes."

Yi Fu Daguan secretly breathed, take the things, even if his life is saved, right?

Although he doesn't understand what it means to take people with short hands and eat people with soft mouths, he still understands the truth of giving gifts and buying lives.In the past few days, since the Tang army entered Sulu City, there have been behaviors that he can't understand.He was really panicked.Fortunately, Su Dawei did not refuse his gift, which made Yi Daguan feel a little relieved.After thanking him repeatedly, he stepped back and cautiously exited the door.Su Dawei shouted "Lu Dun" and ordered Lu Dun to receive the gift.Lu Dun has been by his side since the last time, as his personal guard.Watching the city lord go out, Ashina really laughed: "This Hu official is also interesting, obviously it is a gift, but I am afraid that you will not accept it, and you will thank you if you accept it." ”"Just to ask for peace of mind, I will obey his wishes, and I can be quiet for a few days."

Su Dawei picked up the brush and was about to put it down, when he suddenly remembered, looked up and asked, "What are you looking for me?"

”"Oh, I was about to tell you that the Hu people who had gathered together had been disrupted and settled, and had set up tents outside the city and sent people to guard them."

Ashina Daozhen said, and said: "According to what you said, I deliberately starved them for two days, and then gave them a meal today, which was some naan, and these people are also strange, they were all a little restless before, and they were honest one by one." ”"And that's not all."

Su Qingjie said on the side: "I heard Wang Xiaojie say that many of these people took the initiative to ask for surrender and wanted to join the Tang Army and serve the Tang Dynasty. ”"It's not surprising that Hu people are strong."

Su Dawei simply put down the pen in his hand, and glanced at Su Qingjie and Ashina Daozhen: "Is there something wrong with you?"

”"It's nothing special, it's just what you arranged before, I think about it and don't know the reason."

On Ashina Daozhen's handsome face, he showed a silly smile again, and squeezed his eyebrows at Su Qingjie on the side and said, "I just happened to meet a lion and I was looking for you, so I came here together." ”Su Dawei glanced at Su Qingjie, who was standing aside with a somewhat embarrassed face, and his eyes returned to Ashina Daozhen: "You talk about your business first." ”"Oh, I just want to know, what kind of care method is it that you said tomorrow that you want to give birth to 'take care' of those descendants?""

It turned out to be for this."

Su Dawei couldn't help but smile and said: "Without it, that is, we go to those camps and walk around, and pick some people to come out and give favors, such as the cold weather, those Turkic soldiers lack food and clothing, then we will pick some good ones, reward them, give them food and clothing, and can encourage them verbally, and then let those who perform well help manage the rest of the soldiers." ”"Is this Ich-eun?"

Su Qingjie raised his eyebrows: "This trick is not unusual. ”After thinking about it, he seemed to suddenly realize: "No wonder, I understand." ”Ashina Dao really saw him say this, thought about it for a while, and hesitated a little: "Ami, you do this, can it be regarded as a combination of grace and power?"

”"Pretty much."

Su Dawei painted with his fingers on the table."

We have few soldiers, the Tang army only has a battalion of military horses, less than a thousand people, and nearly 10,000 servants under the command of the Hu people.However, there were nearly 100,000 Turks subdued along the road this time, and with such a small number of people, it was not easy to keep an eye on these people. ”Su Qingjie and Ashina Daozhen nodded again and again.What Su Dawei said was also what they thought.Today, the former governor Su Dingfang is still accommodating soldiers and herdsmen everywhere, and there is still a large number of post-war coordination and civil affairs work to be done.Here in Su Ducheng, Su Dawei led the army to sit in the town for the time being.It's not just about seeing the captured Ashina Helu father and son, but also the Turkic soldiers who have been recruited one after another.The Tang army mainly scattered the core military strength under Ashina Helu, but there were so many Turks, if someone climbed the heights and shouted, I was afraid that it would be another disaster.The roots of the Turks remain.There are people, and there are soldiers.In the past few days, Su Qingjie, Lou Shide and Ashina Daozhen have also been thinking about how to stabilize the situation.As more and more soldiers were accommodated, the Tang army was like sitting on a powder keg, becoming more and more unsafe.The grassland is cold in winter, lack of food and clothing, and those soldiers are quite restless.Su Qingjie and others expressed their opinions, but there was no good way to solve the situation in front of them perfectly.Su Dawei explained: "Blindly taking advantage of the situation cannot solve the current predicament of our army, our food is not enough, even if we pour the strength of Su Ducheng, we can't feed so many people." ”Nearly 100,000 Turkic soldiers and herdsmen, plus more than 10,000 Tang troops.No amount of cattle and sheep is enough to eat."

But I made these people hungry and urgent, and I was afraid that they would take risks, so I had to starve them for two days, and then provide them with a small amount of food, so that the rations could be saved.Tomorrow we will go together, not only to calm the emotions, but also to win them over and divide them, and only those who are positive can get enough food.In this way, these Turks will not be able to unite, and I will choose a leader among them, and divide and disintegrate.Such people will work hard to show their loyalty, so that we will be less stressed.Limited food is to be rationed according to their performance. ”After a pause, Su Dawei knocked on the table and said, "Dao Zhen, you continue to send people to look for the scattered sheep around, you can find a little bit of it, the problem of lack of food can only be completely solved when the chief manager comes." ”"I know
