Great Tang Southern Emperor

But soon he thought of the intelligence analysis ability of the Blood Dragon Guard, and said confidently: "Your Highness, don't worry, according to the information we have obtained, there are only a few roads from Yunzhong to Gaochang or Tuyuhun. As long as we keep our hands on any intersection of those roads, he won't be able to run away."

"That's right, what you said makes sense." Li Zhen nodded clearly, as if she recognized A Lai's words.The road in the desert is not a plain area, you can walk as you want, resources are scarce in the desert, and there are only so many supply points, if you don’t follow the fixed route, even if you can escape the pursuit of Guo Tang’s army, Jieli can only die In the sea of ​​sand.

"The only thing I'm worried about is that Jieli will know some secret routes that we don't know." After a while, Li Zhen said worriedly. Although the Blood Dragon Guard has checked, Li Zhen is still a little worried that Jieli will have a secret passage. Not found.

Li Ergou knew that this was caused by Li Zhen's nervousness, so he didn't point it out. Instead, he helped Alai explain with a smile: "Your Highness, please rest assured, there may indeed be such a small secret route in the desert. But your Highness don't want it." Forget, even if Xieli fled, there must be many people around him, at least [-] troops. With so many people, even the largest road may not be able to satisfy their supplies, let alone There is a small route hidden in the great desert, if they dare to follow the small route, they are courting death."

"When you say that, I'm even more worried." Hearing Li Ergou's words, Li Zhen became even more worried, because he knew that Xieli was chased very badly this time. As Ergou said, there are many people following Xieli, and there are only a lot more than ten thousand.

But Tang Jun pursued him so tightly that the people around him collapsed one after another, and some even surrendered to Tang Jun directly, so that in the end Jieli only had dozens of cavalry around him, and then hit him head-on. Li Daozong's Datong Army was finally taken advantage of by Zhang Baoxiang.

And Li Zhen's arrangement was to intercept Xieli before Li Daozong and Zhang Baoxiang, and then gain the greatest military exploits in this battle against the Turks.It's just that as the time draws closer, Li Zhen's mood becomes more and more nervous. After all, this is the first real military exploit he has obtained after coming to Datang, not the mixed military exploits like the previous raid on Dingxiang, so The credit for this is very important. It can be said that the many calculations and calculations before are all preparations for capturing Xieli alive.

"" Li Ergou also had nothing to say. He knew that Li Zhen was nervous, but he didn't have any good solutions.

"Forget it, I won't tell you. Anyway, I have caught Xieli. Even if you make a mistake in calculation, I will be prepared. Xieli will not be able to run away." After being nervous for a while, he calmed down, and thinking of his many arrangements, even if Xieli had wings, he would not be able to fly.

"" Li Ergou continued to be speechless.

"By the way, we are almost safe now. Do you want to see how Li Huan captured the prisoners?" After lying in the car for a while, Li Zhen couldn't sit still anymore. Move away.What's more, the Turkic captives are also very important to me. As long as they are used well in the future, the people of the Tang Dynasty may be exempted from hard labor.

"Your Highness, no." Li Ergou quickly dissuaded: "Although the war is over and there are only a few sporadic enemies left, the current situation is the most dangerous, because now the enemy and us are intertwined. Walking, you will be able to bump into a wave of enemies head-on, the danger is still very high. At this time, the best way for us is to stick to one place, which will make us safer—this subordinate knows that His Highness is very safe in the carriage , but please take pity on the lives of your subordinates, Your Highness."

Li Ergou and others have been with Li Zhen for a long time, and gradually understand Li Zhen's temperament. Li Zhen's temperament is to put it bluntly. Instead, he would stick to the past, but now he has used a roundabout tactic, using everyone's lives to persuade, but the effect will be better.

Chapter 63 The captive problem

"Is that so? Then don't go." Li Zhen really accepted this trick, or he still valued the lives of his own people, and it would be better if he could be exempted from unnecessary sacrifices.Of course, this is only relative to one's own people. If you are facing an enemy, it's hard to say.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Li Ergou was very grateful, not only to Li Zhen, but also to his quick wit. Otherwise, let Li Zhen run around on the battlefield, it would be better if nothing happened. All have to be buried.

"It's just really boring." Li Zhen rolled around on the small bed and yelled that she was bored.

"Why don't you rest for a while, Your Highness?" Alai suggested, "Anyway, we have an absolute advantage now, and it's time to calm down by dawn, and you will be safer then."

"That's the only way to go. The problem is that I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep." Li Zhen lay on the bed as if resigned to her fate, muttering: "In order to participate in tonight's battle, I went to bed a whole day early. Sleep, I don’t know if I can fall asleep.”

On this point, he is too worried. Although he has become more mature since time travel, and his work and rest time has gradually moved closer to that of adults, but he is a child after all. It should be noted that children are still very lethargic. In this way, the possibility of insomnia is basically impossible.

Facts also proved that this was the case, Li Zhen just rolled on the bed a few times, and gradually felt sleepy, and closed her eyes.When he woke up again, it was already high in the sun. At this time, the battle on the main battlefield of Yinshan was over, but there were less than 1000 people staying here, mainly to guard the prisoners or bury the corpses, while the main force continued to pursue the remnants of the Turks.Because of the chaos last night, many remnants of the enemy escaped, so only a few people were left on the battlefield to clean up the battlefield and protect Li Zhen, while he divided his troops into multiple groups and went to chase and kill the remnants of the enemy in batches.

"Why is it so fragrant?" Li Zhen was actually awakened by the smell of roasted mutton, and followed the smell to the back of the camp. It turned out that Li Ergou and others had bought a few sheep and were roasting whole sheep.

However, it was not the Roasted Whole Lamb that attracted Li Zhen's attention, but a few other people. Judging by the clothes of these people, they were not small in official positions. When it came to Li Zhen's voice, everyone came to pay their respects.

"Why are there so many people? Everyone is not busy capturing prisoners or chasing remnants of the enemy, why are they all gathered here? Could it be that you were also attracted by the roasted whole lamb?"

After seeing the ceremony, the mutton was cooked, so Li Zhen simply invited them to dinner and asked about their purpose by the way.Although the war is over, it doesn't mean that this matter is over. In fact, once the war is over, there are many complicated things. It takes a lot of time to bury the corpse, not to mention counting the harvest and prisoners and recording military achievements. Trouble It's on.

"The subordinates are here today because they need His Highness to make up their minds." General Huo Chulou, the left leader of the army, said respectfully.

"I make up my mind? No, no, no." Li Zhen laughed, and quickly waved her hand to refuse: "Although I am the commander of the first army, I don't really manage much. You know that, but you are looking for me. Wrong person."

"But here, except for you, Mr. Chang Shi, no one has the right to deal with this matter." Huo Chulou wondered: "And the matter is urgent. If you wait until the commander returns, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"What's going on?" Upon hearing that it was an urgent matter, Li Zhen didn't shirk, and asked quickly.

"It's like this, didn't we capture a lot of prisoners? And among all the prisoners, a considerable number of them were wounded."

"If there is an injury, then treat it." Li Zhen said casually.

"But the problem is that we are in a sneak attack this time, and we didn't even bring much dry food, let alone medicine." Another captain explained: "Besides, we also have a lot of wounded patients, and the medicine itself is not enough. If the medicine is used on the captives, our own brothers will not be cured."

"But if it's used on our own people, I'm afraid that at least half of those captives will die." Even if Huo Chulou didn't say what he said next, Li Zhen knew what he meant, and used the limited medicine on his own people, and let The captives are left to fend for themselves. This matter is easy to do or not to say. If the court, especially the scholars know about it, they can spray you to death with spitting stars.Although there are difficulties, some people don't care about these, they will just hold on to this handle, and then bite you to death and abuse the captives until they completely bring you down.

Li Zhen pondered for a moment, then ordered: "Well, give the medicine to our brothers."

"But what about the captives?" Huo Chulou asked, "If they are really left to fend for themselves, I'm afraid the princes and scholars in the court will not give up easily."

Li Zhen sneered and said, "What are they afraid of? I gave the order, so they can still bite me? Besides, it's not like we don't give the prisoners medicine."

"Huh?" Everyone was confused—there were only so many medicines, and you had ordered them to be used by your own people, so where did you get the medicines for the captives?

"Your Highness means that you plan to divide the wound medicine into two parts, one for the brothers and one for the captives?" Another Zhonglang understood Li Zhen's meaning and nodded in agreement: "This is a way. In this way, it is fair and just, and no one can say anything, but in this way, we are afraid that we will lose many brothers."

"Who said it was going to be divided into two parts?" Li Zhen glanced at him: "Didn't I say, leave all the wound medicines to the brothers."

"Your Highness, this subordinate is a vulgar person, and I really don't understand what you mean." Huo Chulou took off the chief and scratched the back of his head vigorously, but he couldn't figure it out. There are only so many medicines, and you have to give them to yourself. Use by humans, but also by captives—this equation doesn’t hold for him, can you still conjure medicine out of thin air?Not only him, but everyone including Li Ergou didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Li Zhen's gourd.

"Hehe, it's normal if you don't understand." Li Zhen smiled and pointed to the ground: "Where is this place? This is the grassland. The grassland is rich in products. Isn't it easy to get medicinal materials?"

Then he pulled out a grass and said: "Look, everyone, this thing is called alfalfa, and it can be seen everywhere on the grassland. It is delicious and juicy. It is the favorite food of cattle and sheep, and it is also the best feed.

But what no one knows is that this alfalfa is not only a kind of feed, but also a kind of medicinal material, which can calm people, benefit the five internal organs, and benefit the large and small intestines, and can be eaten for a long time.The roots are mainly used to treat febrile disease, troubled fullness, yellow eyes, yellow urine, and wine jaundice. Squeeze the juice and take one liter, which will make you feel better after vomiting.Pound the juice and decoct it for drinking, and treat sand and stone drenching pain.It can be said that the whole body is a treasure, and it can be said to be of great benefit to the body. Using these herbs to treat their diseases, is it worthy of them?Do you understand what I mean? "

"Oh" Huo Chulou suddenly realized, made an expression that I understood, and said: "This subordinate understands, I understand, this subordinate will do it now."

"But Your Highness, you have to say that this alfalfa is mainly used to cure diseases. All the captives suffered from injuries. What they need is medicinal herbs to stop bleeding. This alfalfa does not stop bleeding." Obviously, if you understand, you will do not understand.

"" After hearing this, the person who understood Li Zhen's meaning immediately put his hands on his forehead, looking ashamed to see others, obviously defeated by this person's IQ.

"Drag out and fight." Li Zhen was silent for a moment, then ordered with a blank expression.

"Yes, drag it out and fight." Huo Chulou followed suit.

"Eh? Why did you hit me? Make it clear, hey, don't want it." Following the screams, the man was dragged out with his arms crossed.

Chapter 64 captive problem (2)

"Okay, those who don't understand are gone, let's continue." Li Zhen took a bite of the mutton: "It tastes really good, I will reward the cook later, everyone should hurry up and eat it while it's hot. By the way, we Where did it go?"

"Your Highness mentioned the efficacy of this alfalfa." Huo Chulou saw that Li Zhen had moved his mouth, so he stopped being polite, and grabbed a leg of lamb and tore off a large piece of meat in one bite.

"Okay, now that we've talked about alfalfa, why don't you go ahead and talk about it? Don't you all understand what I mean?" Some things can be done but can't be said. For example, using alfalfa to treat wounds can only be done. Do it, but never say it out loud.

"Yes, my subordinates have already understood, so there is no need to talk about it." Huo Chulou also quickly expressed his understanding: "Even if we only take alfalfa, it may be easy to be convinced."

"It's simple." Another one smiled and said, "There are more than one kind of herbal medicine on this grassland. Let's add a little more, and it will always be effective."

Good guy, I almost slipped my tongue, and I couldn't help wiping off a cold sweat.

"That's right, that's right, I forgot about that." Huo Chulou hurriedly patted his head to wake up.

"It's good if you understand everything. Now that you understand everything, let's hurry up and do it after dinner. Some people will say that we are passive." When talking about some people, a sneer appeared on the corner of Li Zhen's mouth. This army is not peaceful at all, all major forces have infiltrated the army, and I must not make mistakes in my words and deeds, otherwise I will fall into the trap of others.
