Huhehan's act of surrender immediately drew insults from other Rouran captives.

"coward!"

"A person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"

"Huhehan, you bastard, you are not worthy to be a Rouran warrior, you are not worthy to be a tribal leader, you are a coward!"

Zhao Junsheng yelled: "Shut up, everyone!"

The Rouran captives stopped cursing.

"I ask again, who else is willing to surrender and surrender to me?"

No one made a sound. Some people may have this kind of thought in their hearts, but they didn't dare to speak for a while when they saw that the others scolded Kuhhan who had surrendered just now.

Zhao Junsheng didn't want to waste any more energy on these Rouran prisoners, he waved his hands: "Except for Huhehan, kill everyone else!"

Suddenly Hehan was brought aside, a group of soldiers came out and drew out their sabers and swung them under the tent one by one without dragging their feet. The heads of the captives rolled down here one by one, and the soil on the ground was stained red with blood.

In the blink of an eye, all the captured Rouran ministers and generals were killed, leaving only Kuhehan alone. He stood by and looked at the rulers who were the highest-level rulers of the Rouran Khanate yesterday. Now it turned into corpses that were gradually getting colder, and the coldness from the soles of the feet rushed straight to the top of the head.

Zhao Junsheng shifted his gaze to Huhehan and waved to him.

Huhehan stepped forward, pressed his right hand to his chest, and bowed in salute.

Zhao Junsheng asked: "Others vowed not to surrender, why did you surrender? Could it be that, as they said, you are as cowardly as a mouse because you are greedy for life and afraid of death?"

Suddenly Hehan looked normal, and he said: "The Rouran Khanate is over, I don't think it's necessary to bury it with it, it's not worth it! Your majesty's martial arts are unrivaled in the world, and only your majesty can make me truly surrender. Under my command, I think I can do more things, at least so that I will not come to this world in vain!"

Hehe, this Huhehan’s thinking is really avant-garde, does anyone now know that one must realize self-worth in life?

Zhao Junsheng murmured in his heart, thought for a while and asked, "What will you do?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, I only know how to fight, and I know nothing but fighting! I am willing to be an invincible scimitar in the hands of Your Majesty, and what Your Majesty points to is the direction of my attack!"

Some of the ministers of the Qian State next to him couldn't help but sneer: "Why do I think that General Kuhahan's military talent is not very good? In this battle with our army, the general's troops were killed by our army." Fuck the shit!"

Huhehan said: "I don't want to argue with this lord. How can I, Huhehan, the leader of a small Rouran tribe, be His Majesty's opponent? If I can defeat Your Majesty, do I still need to submit? I was humble in the Rouran Army, and no one listened to what I said. Even in the end, my suggestions played some roles, but my suggestions were only partially adopted by Tu Hezhen! If Tu He really can accept me How did it come to this point?"

Zhao Junsheng asked, "Chang Kun, how many prisoners are there?"

"Return to Your Majesty, there are more than six thousand people!"

Zhao Junsheng thought about it again, and said to Chang Kun: "You return to Chang'an with me first. As for how to arrange you, I will consider it after returning to Chang'an!"

Huhehan saluted and said, "Yes!"

Zhao Junsheng then ordered: "Now we are not short of food and grass. The order will be passed on, and the Dragon Guards will leave escorts. Starting tomorrow, other armies will disperse and search Jinwei Mountain and the lower reaches of the Ganwei River. Arrest all Rouran people!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" All the generals stood up and clasped their fists in agreement.

Zhao Junsheng said to Zhao Ping again: "Send someone to contact Wei Juan and Bai Jinguang, I want to know their news! At the same time, send someone to notify Yang Lie and others, let them bring troops to meet up!"

"promise!"

Zhao Junsheng then ordered the slaughter of cattle and sheep to reward the whole army.

For one and a half months, the soldiers of the dry army either ate dry food or washed dry food with boiling water to make batter. Even if there was jerky, they couldn't eat it every day. Everyone was looking forward to a hot meal.

Among the grains seized were wheat noodles, barley noodles, and corn. The cooks in the army made them into steamed buns, boiled beef and mutton in a pot, and added some simple seasonings.

When eating dinner in the evening, everyone was given a large piece of meat, a few buns, a bowl of broth, and some wild vegetables. Among the seized supplies was only kumiss, so everyone was given another bowl of kumiss, although The generals and soldiers of the dry army are not used to drinking this kind of wine, but this wine always tastes like wine.

After nightfall, a fire was set up in the camp, and the lights were brightly lit, and some Rouran women were arranged to come and perform songs and dances.

Dongfang Chen took a bite of the meat, but still couldn't bear the doubts in his heart, and asked: "Your Majesty, there are so many Rouran prisoners, why did Your Majesty leave Huhehan alone? This man's military talent is not to the point where His Majesty would be surprised, right?"

Chapter 918 Where to Go?

Zhao Junsheng took a sip of kumiss, put down the cup and said: "The disgusting people reneged on their promises, broke their promises, blatantly violated the agreement, and blatantly sent troops to invade our country. Although they have been defeated by our country and lost 2 horses, they will definitely become angry. Our country All caravans going to the west will definitely be detained or treated unfairly after entering the territory of the nasty people, at least until we have opened up other roads leading to the west, our caravans will not be able to leave the western region!

Therefore, we want to give some color to those who hate it!The countries in the Western Regions don’t have too many soldiers and horses. They have to garrison their own countries, and the troops they can deploy to attack are limited. I think these Rouran captives should come in handy! "

Dongfang Chen asked: "Your Majesty intends to use troops against the enemy? This military expenditure may not be underestimated. The supply line is too long, and the loss on the way cannot afford it! The enemy will fight at the door of the Western Regions, and our country will fight the enemy. People have to travel thousands of miles! Moreover, the Southern Dynasty is also a threat to us, so we must guard against it!"

Zhao Junsheng said: "In addition to the factor of opening up the Silk Road, I did consider the problem of too long supply lines, which is why I planned to use the Rouran captives. Put the Rouran captives in the Western Regions for training, and send troops directly from the Western Regions! In terms of military expenses, the imperial court will pay half, and the countries in the Western Regions will share the other half, and all the food, fodder and supplies needed will be purchased from the Western Regions! In this way, the problem of too long supply lines will be solved!"

Dongfang Chen nodded: "Your Majesty understands what His Majesty means. Your Majesty wants Kuhehan to lead those Rouran soldiers to fight against the Yanda people? This is a good way, but... Your Majesty Don't you worry that they will lose control after leaving the Western Regions, or that they will rebel?"

Zhao Junsheng laughed and said: "Of course we can't just let Huhehan lead Rouran's troops to fight against the Yanda people, and we can't let Huhehan be the main general. We must send a general to lead the army, with Huhehan as the deputy general, to go out on the expedition. The Yanda people's forces are composed of Rouran's surrender troops and the Western Region coalition forces! The Yanda people are a great threat to the Western Regions, and the countries in the Western Regions should not object!"

Minister Lu Xuan was very worried: "Your Majesty, I heard that Yandaren's territory is not small. If we want to open up the Silk Road, I am afraid that this battle will not be finished in a short period of time. If the time is too long, the military expenditure will increase. Big, I'm worried that I will fall into this quagmire and can't get out!"

Zhao Junsheng didn't say how far he wanted to fight, and he must not reveal this to anyone. Once the hated people know about it, I'm afraid the difficulties the army will face will be unimaginable.

"Let's fight first, and then decide whether to fight big or small according to the situation!"

In the early morning of the next day, their respective soldiers and horses went out to attack the camps of the Rouran tribe in nearby places.

Only two days later, a steady stream of Rouran prisoners were escorted to the Heyun Gan Army camp. With more and more Rouran prisoners, the prisoner camp could no longer hold it, and Zhao Junsheng had to order it to be built next to it. A captive holding camp.

Six days later, all the Rouran camps within a radius of hundreds of miles were beaten up. Except for the old and weak women and children, some adult men were all arrested.

Zhao Junsheng didn't want to engage in massacres. Killing those old and weak women and children who had no resistance would not give them any sense of accomplishment, and this kind of thing would shock the hearts of soldiers and generals, causing them problems in their thinking. Besides, he was not a tyrant, so When the order was issued, the soldiers were only allowed to capture the Rouran cavalry and strong men, which almost deprived the Rouran people of their force, and even made them incapable of self-defense. Only in this way can the Rouran people be completely honest.

Lu Xuan counted the captured Rouran generals and strong men, and he reported to Zhao Junsheng: "Your Majesty, I have made a rough calculation. So far, we have captured a total of 1000 Rouran generals and strong men. There are more than [-] people, including weapons, bows, horses, and leather armor. There are [-] Rouran soldiers in total, and there are more than [-] strong men. They all have horses and bows, but they have no weapons. Leather armor!"

After listening, Zhao Junsheng asked: "I heard that Jinwei Mountain is rich in gold and iron ore, so I organized a group of Rouran to capture Qing Zhuang, and asked them to transport the iron ore to Gaochang, and then recruited some craftsmen from various countries in the Western Regions to make scimitars. , spears, arrows and iron armor. As for the leather armor, aren’t we the furs that we captured? Send them to countries in the Western Regions to make them into leather armor! Riding bows and infantry bows are made by our military supervisory department and are regularly shipped to the Western Regions !"

Lu Xuan quickly recorded what Zhao Junsheng said with a pen, and will carry it out one by one later.

Zhao Ping quickly walked into the big tent and reported: "Father, the captain and Bai Jinguang have been contacted. The army of the Wei family is currently on the north bank of the intersection of Shishui and Zhijushui! He sent scouts to search the surrounding area for more than a hundred miles. No trace of the Rouran people was found. So far, he has captured more than [-] Rouran people, and eight tribes, big and small, have surrendered!

Bai Jinguang's army met Princess Tuzhen and her men again on the south bank of Yuba Ni Dashui. The two sides fought three more times.In the former land of Gaoche, there are only traces of life left by the people of Gaoche, and no human habitation or livestock were found, so they must have migrated away long ago!They captured more than 5000 Rouran soldiers, and six tribes, big and small, surrendered! "

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while, and then ordered Kang Yide: "Go and tell the ministers and generals accompanying the army to come to discuss the matter!"

"promise!"

When all the ministers and generals arrived, under Zhao Junsheng's instruction, Zhao Ping told the situation of the East Route Army and the Central Route Army respectively.

Zhao Junsheng waited for Zhao Ping to finish speaking, and said to the ministers: "Now there are two questions: first, whether the East and Central armies should continue to expand the search area to search for Rouran people; However, how should the tribe be resettled? Regarding these two issues, let the ministers share their thoughts! Let’s talk about the first one first, whether our army will continue to expand the search area!"

All the ministers were relieved to hear that the East and Central armies were safe and sound, and that they had achieved a lot of victories. However, the two problems they faced made them feel very difficult.

Xu Yan was the first to stand up and said: "Your Majesty, I think that since this battle has been fought to this point, it will be fought to the end until Rouran is completely wiped out! But I ordered that the East and Central armies continue to expand." Search the scope, try to catch all the Rouran people, and don't let them come back to life!"
