Chapter 133 Capture Dingxiang
(Originally, the editor said it was on the shelves today, but in the afternoon, the editor mentioned another problem. It was on the shelves next Friday, and it was so excited yesterday that it was in vain. In the next week, three thousand words will be updated every day. I will definitely write it up, and it will be easier to save the manuscripts for the New Year. (*^__^*)hehe...)
The Tang army arrived. These Han people who had been bullied for a long time now seemed to have a backbone. They picked up sticks and beat up the Turks who bullied them on weekdays, and finally got revenge.
The Tang Dynasty did not forget them, they did not forget them! The Han people in the red eyes have now turned into hungry wolves, and they have taught these cruel and ruthless and ruthless people a lesson.
Huotou Camp started cooking since midnight, allowing 10,000 people who were about to reinforce Li Jing to eat first, and they would feel Dingxiang City before dawn.
Li Jing's three thousand soldiers had an advantage at night, but during the day, if the Turks knew that Li Jing had only three thousand people, they would be trapped in the situation of "catching turtles in a jar" when they closed the city gate.
This time, Su Dingfang led the army. General Yuchi left behind the Turkic surrendered soldiers who were guarding more than 20,000. There were several rebellions at night, but they were all suppressed, so most of the troops were left to guard the prisoners.
Changsun Chong thought of a trick and said, "General, although these people have no weapons, they are all middle-aged men and have the strength. If you pull their waistbands, even if the Turks are shameless, they won't run around naked like savages."
Su Dingfang burst out laughing. This move was too yin. He had no belts and could only carry his pants in both hands. He couldn't run away even if he wanted to escape!
"Getting up!" Yuchi Jingde reacted and laughed and scolded: "You can remember any move. Although it is not a good place, it is very useful."
Seeing that Yuchi Jingde was smiling obscenely, he said a little embarrassedly: "The staff is tight now, so I have to do it!"
"Su Dingfang, you bring 10,000 people to reinforce General Li, and I am here to take care of these prisoners and wounded." Yuchi Jingde felt that Su Dingfang was more suitable for reinforcements.
"Yes, the last general will take the order!" Although Su Dingfang was curious, he thought that General Yuchi might think that he could not suppress those prisoners who stayed there.
Changsun was jealous of him. He wanted to take advantage of the chaos to grab some good things and said, "General Yuchi, the last general asks for orders and go for reinforcements!"
Yuchi Jingde thought that there should be no danger ahead, so he nodded and said, "Accurate! You go down and clean up first! Su Dingfang stayed!"
Su Dingfang originally wanted to go out with Changsun, but he didn't expect that Yuchi Jingde would keep him. After Changsun rushed out, he asked curiously: "What are the instructions of the general?"
"My two boys, Duan Guan and Fang Yiai, have martial arts skills, you don't have to worry, it's okay to protect yourself, but Changsun Chong is not fat, but you only know how to be a three-legged cat. You are on the same journey this time, be sure to ensure Changsun Chong's safety. If Changsun Chong is in an accident, even if I don't blame you, General Li, Lord Changsun, it's hard to explain to Your Majesty!"
This is already very thorough, just to say it bluntly. If something happens to Changsun Chong, it will be useless even if you Su Dingfang makes great contributions.
Su Dingfang looked arrogant and naturally knew the importance of Changsun Chong. He saw the lethality of Zhuge crossbows he used yesterday. There was also a Tang sword that cut iron like mud. The Tang Dynasty did not lack generals like him, but there were talented people like Changsun Chong. What's more, Changsun Chong was the son of Changsun Wuji, the first assistant minister of the Tang Dynasty, and he was also the eldest son and the future controller of a family.
"Yes, General, the last general will swear to protect the safety of Mr. Changsun to the death." Su Dingfang said solemnly.
Su Dingfang was reminded that when he was rushing to the road, he followed Changsun and mingled to Huotou Camp.
Changsun Chong thought Su Dingfang hadn't eaten well, so he took out the braised beef wrapped in oil paper and said, "General Su, you haven't eaten?"
Su Dingfang and Changsun Chong had little interaction, and they had only said a few times. If it weren't for Yuchi Jingde's special explanation this time, Su Dingfang might not have been with Changsun Chong at all.
Su Dingfang took the oil-paper bag handed over by Changsun and said, "Thank you, I'm full!"
The problem! Why do you still pick up my braised beef when you are full? Changsun rushed over and said, "General Su, look at it, you're running back and forth to report to you. It's inconvenient. You'd better go to the front."
Su Dingfang glanced at Changsun and said, "No need, I'm here. If something happens to you, I will even level Dingxiang City and there will be no good results. Even if I die, I will not let you have anything to do."
Changsun Chong was slightly stunned and smiled. It turned out that he was wrong. Since Su Dingfang thought so, he could not stop him. However, Su Dingfang was very direct and worth making friends.
Su Dingfang joined the army from his father at the age of fifteen and was famous for his bravery. After his father Su Yong passed away, Su Dingfang led his father's troops and personally killed Zhang Jincheng, defeated Yang Gongqing, and all the villagers all depended on him. Later, he surrendered Dou Jiande, and Gao Yaxian, the general of Dou Jiande, loved him very much and adopted him as his adopted son. He served Dou Jiande and Liu Heita successively. After Liu Bai died in the Tang army, Su Dingfang returned to his hometown to live in seclusion.
This time, he went out to serve as the Turkish government again as Zhechong of Kuang Daofu, as Li Jing's deputy general and vanguard of the army. Yesterday's battle made Su Dingfang's brave reputation even more prominent.
"It's causing trouble for General Su!" Changsun Chong, a child of a high-ranking official, felt aware of this and said respectfully.
Su Dingfang smiled and said, "The Zhuge crossbow and Tang sword made by Mr. Changsun are the best in the world. This time, we will reduce a lot of damage based on these two things. I will serve the entire army, thank you Mr. Changsun!"
"General Su is too rewarded!" Changsun Chong was a little proud. This thing came from his hands after all. It was his credit. Even if he did not kill a Turkic barbarian, thousands of soldiers had made great contributions with the weapons he invented.
Su Dingfang used to hear that Changsun Chong had a bad reputation, a playboy, and a disaster for Chang'an, but he didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to chat with a prodigal son today that he would not exchange gold for money.
This Changsun Chong is not as tall as those disciples of the aristocratic families. He looks easy to get along with, but he secretly decides that Changsun Chong will get along with more in the future.
In the past, he was too stubborn and did not know how to adapt, so he would not be able to do well.
He rushed all the way in the rain and arrived at Dingxiang City, and the gates were wide open. Although Su Dingfang really wanted to enter the city as soon as possible, he had been a big fight on the battlefield since he was a child, and being cautious can save his life better than being brave.
Su Dingfang sent a pair of men to go in first, and soon came back to inform him that General Li was in the city, waiting for the army to reunite.
Changsun Chong was not good at using troops and consciously followed Su Dingfang, trying not to cause trouble for Su Dingfang.
Su Dingfang was still cautious and led five thousand people with him to make progress. The other five thousand people were waiting outside the city. Even if there was an accident, he didn't know that he was surrounded, and at least there were rescuers from the outside.
Changsun Chong followed Su Dingfang and entered the city together. The city tower was full of corpses, most of which were Turkish soldiers. Occasionally, he would see soldiers wearing Tang Dynasty uniforms and leaving behind soldiers outside. He had already consciously collected corpses for his dead comrades, so that they could go all the way.
Originally, Li Jing was about to pursue the victory, but suddenly he found that the Han people in the city seemed to be crazy. When he saw the Turks, he went up to chop them up to vent his hatred and avenge his relatives who died at the hands of the Turks.
Li Jing had to stop to appease the people in the city, which delayed the fighter's opportunity. Seeing that Su Dingfang had arrived, he immediately asked Su Dingfang to lead three thousand troops to pursue Jie Li Khan as a victory.
When Li Jing saw Changsun rushing over, he said, "Nephew, I'll leave this city to you. I hope you can stabilize the situation in the city as soon as possible."
This job is easy to do, and you can get a lot of benefits. He said, "The last general will definitely live up to the general's importance!"
"Okay, I will lead three thousand troops to join Li Ji's troops and snipe the Turkic reinforcements." Li Jing said, quickly sending orders to let the five thousand soldiers outside the city gate enter the city, close the city gate, reoccupy various key positions, and control the entire city.
The three thousand soldiers who followed Li Jing at night attacked each other last night were now very tired. They continue to pursue now. Although they can take the initiative, Li Jing is old and cannot endure this way!
"General Li, take care of yourself and let General Su go!" Changsun Chong suggested, and he didn't close his eyes all night and had not entered the water. Li Jing looked very tired.
I didn't think it was a bit tired after being said by Changsun, and said, "No, I lead troops to fight, that's it. I will never let go of any fighter. You stay and stabilize the situation in the city as soon as possible, and I will make a lot of use for food that will last for a month."
After Li Jing finished speaking, he didn't ask Changsun Chong whether he was in a dilemma. He clamped the horse's legs and led his troops to chase the remnants of the Turkic troops.
Changsun Chong is now the temporary supreme general in Dingxiang City. After venting, the Han people in the city have calmed down and stood on both sides of the street to welcome the Tang soldiers who entered the city.
The soldiers who were already very tired suddenly saw so many people welcome them, and their heroism suddenly expanded. They worked hard to fight, hoping that the people of the Tang Dynasty could live and work in peace and contentment. Even if they were tired, it was nothing.
Originally, people were sent to take care of the places where the Turkic nobles lived. There must be a lot of gold, silver and jewelry in these people's homes. They ran away in a hurry and had no time to clean up.
In order to appease the people in the city, Changsun Chong summoned dozens of wise soldiers and stood in densely populated places to explain to the people. The Tang Dynasty did not forget them. They were the owners of the city from now on. Now the population has been registered, and no one has enslaved them anymore, because the Tang Dynasty would send officials to make decisions for them.
Never be slaves anymore. They are now free people and take their families to register their population.
After a busy day, there were 30,000 Han people in the city, all of whom were skinny and could tell at a glance that they had lived in the hard days before.
This time, the expedition was not without gains. He snatched a lot of cattle and sheep from the Turks, and the food was very good. Changsun Chong issued a temporary order to distribute the cattle and sheep hell to each household, and to allocate housing to them according to the actual situation.
