Chapter 663 Good News Comes
Chapter 688 Good News Arrives
Royal Palace
Li Shimin was having lunch with several ministers when a good news came that the Youzhou army had won a big victory!Li Jiajun won a big victory!
This is really a happy event!

In fact, Li Shimin had heard about this a long time ago, but although the gossip spread quickly, if we really want to celebrate, we still have to wait for the good news to come.

Now that the good news finally came a little later, Li Shimin, who was already "invigorated on happy occasions", laughed, and said directly: "Li Weigong has made great achievements! The king of Youzhou is indisputable! Su Guogong taught his son well So square!”

This big victory is really exciting!

It is different from fighting the Turks. When fighting the Turks, the Turks first won, and then the Tang Dynasty began to turn defeat into victory.

But in this Youzhou battle, the Youzhou side has always been firmly on top of the Tubo army!

Li Shimin was even more delighted when he saw that the victory report also attached the treaty signed by Li Weigong and the King of Tubo.

In the past all along, wars were costly, costly, and useless!

That is to say, in this battle in Youzhou, not only did not lose many of our own people, but we also captured many prisoners!
I heard that most of those captives were detained and served as slaves to open up wasteland and build roads in Youzhou!

These people do heavy work, and Datang's own people can relax.

This is of course a good thing!

Along with the good news, there were memorials and secret letters written by Qin Yang and others.

The memorial is public, and the secret letter is for Li Shimin to read alone.

The contents of the memorial are very formulaic, while Qin Yang wrote his arrangements for the detained slaves in the secret letter.

Li Shimin looked at the letter, the corners of his mouth twitched first, then turned up again.

Qin Yang wrote in the letter that if the Tubo slaves detained this time were willing to use the ransom to redeem them as agreed, then they would hand over the money with one hand and the others.

But if Tubo finally repents and refuses to use the ransom to redeem, then these slaves will be left in Youzhou and squeezed out of their last remaining value!
This was also to prevent the Tibetans from getting any benefits from Youzhou and turning to Li Shimin for "help."

Although in the view of Qin Yang, who is a later generation, if the Tubo people really dare to do this, it would be really shameless.

But such things are not uncommon in history!
Many people are so shameless!

But the big country in the Central Plains often has to agree because of the problem of face, which is clearly not worthwhile, but because of moral kidnapping.

It seems that if you win, you can no longer take advantage of other races. If you do, it will be against the demeanor of a big country.

Go to his big country demeanor!

Like those small and honest surrounding countries, the big countries in the Central Plains will not take the initiative to invade. After all, the Central Plains is now sparsely populated and the population is not so large, so there is no need to occupy some small territories.

Even if it is occupied, it is impossible to send troops to garrison for a long time, unless the place is very important.

But if it is some dishonest neighboring countries, do they still have to tolerate and raise traitors?

Obviously, the other party already has the intention of aggressing in reverse, but you still want to say hello to the other party, hello everyone?

Qin Yang can't stand this kind of foreign policy!

Fortunately, Li Shimin is not the type of monarch who "you slap me, and I will put the other half of my face to let you slap me". Li Shimin was able to lead a small number of cavalry to fight when he was young, and he was able to win again and again!

Now he is still in the prime of life, and has not entered the old age, so he still has vigor.

After reading Qin Yang's letter, Li Shimin nodded secretly.

At the same time, I also thought that if the Tubo people really had the face and dared to send someone to "cry poor", whoever would speak for the Tubo people would be able to kick that person out of his court!

Qin Yang also mentioned in the letter about the establishment of political power in Heishui, and said that it is not easy to mention this matter publicly now. Qin Yang himself has asked people to prepare to plant Shun near Heishui. If Shun can grow in Heishui If the nearby plantation is successful, you can use the fertile land near Heishui as the main reason, and add another defense to defend Youzhou together with other frontier guards. It is estimated that you can convince the courtiers.

"Black water..."

"Is it Black Water Mohe?"

Li Shimin muttered, from the letter, he could feel that Qin Yang cared a lot about Heishui, and he seemed to care a little too much about Heishui Mohe?
Thinking that Qin Yang was always a bit strange, he read the letter again. In the letter, Qin Yang vaguely reminded Li Shimin that if a nation like Heishui Mohe is left unchecked, it may not be anything now, but in the future, it will definitely become The confidant of the Central Plains regime is in serious trouble!
Are you in serious trouble?
Although Li Shimin didn't see any peculiarities about this black water moe for the time being, he was very persuasive, especially when he recognized a person, and when he regarded this person as a great talent, what this person said, Li Shimin will definitely figure it out carefully.

Qin Yang's concern for Heishui Mohe affected Li Shimin's attitude towards Heishui.

"It's possible to build a defense here so that Heishui Mohe can be Sinicized as soon as possible..."

As long as the foreign race can be completely Sinicized, there will be no danger of backstabbing.

But this matter can't be rushed, just wait for the results of the bean planting to come out, and then consider this matter.

Putting this matter aside in advance, Li Shimin picked up the memorial again and looked at it carefully.

After reading the memorial, let the eunuch show it to the ministers below.

These memorials have different emphases, but they all describe the great victory of the Youzhou Battle.

Among them, Li Jing spoke most carefully about the treaty issue. After all, Li Jing was the person in charge of signing the treaty with the Tubo king.

"To order Tubo to pay 1000 million taels of silver? Ten thousand sheep and five thousand horses? This is not too much." After reading it, Fang Xuanling commented.

These words caused Du Ruhui, who was on the side, to glance at him.

At first glance, this number is indeed not too much, but anyone who knows the current situation in Tubo can't say the word "not too much".

Is there civil strife in Tubo now?
A new king came to the throne, and the old king was put back.

In the future, I'm afraid it's not going to be a living person's brain. Will the compensation be paid back smoothly and in place?

Changsun Wuji sneered and said, "Whoever can pay this compensation will be recognized by Datang."

Just this sentence made the others nod secretly.

Correct!
Don't look at Tubo who was arrogant towards Datang before, but now it is different from more than three years ago. Today's Tubo has been tossed so hard that he has no time to provoke Datang again.

Not to mention provoking, in the situation where the two kings are fighting, the two parties probably want to win Datang over!

As long as Datang can be drawn over, it will be a huge help!

However, the King of Tubo was just rubbed on the ground by the people from Youzhou. With such a big hatred, can he really bow his head?
