Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

Chapter 193 A grand victory!

"Who is Fan Xin?"

"Is that the young man who stayed in the city?" Di Renjie said solemnly with a straight face.

Thinking of the young man who jumped off the wooden tower, the Tibetan soldier trembled all over and squatted on the ground with his head covered in fear.

"Dead, all dead!"

“The demon lit the weapon and killed everyone.

"Ah! Please don't kill me..."

Looking at the crazy Tibetan soldiers curled up on the ground, Di Renjie bowed his hands to Wu Zetian.

"Your Majesty, the old minister interrogated several prisoners, and everyone said that Fan Xin was the only one in the city at that time."

"Even before he jumped off the tower, he was still telling the Tubo people that although the Tang Dynasty was a large country, not an inch was redundant."

"If you want to provoke the Han and Tang Dynasties, you have to pay the price with blood!"

"Your Majesty, Fan Xin did not betray your trust. He died a heroic death!"

Di Renjie took a deep breath and raised his voice a bit.

"In the battle of Liangzhou, our army severely damaged 37,000 Tibetans and captured 4,000 people!"

"Tibet will no longer be able to take the initiative to attack us in the next year.

"Not only that, the four towns of Anxi will inevitably be unable to withstand the attack of Wang Xiaojie's army as the main force of Tibet is severely damaged."

"It is only a matter of time before we regain the four towns of Anxi."

"Your Majesty, throughout history, such great achievements can only occur when the prosperous times come."

"This is God blessing me, Datang!"

The civil and military ministers knelt down and said happily.

"Congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Queen Mother!"

Outside the tent, 120,000 troops fell to their knees like waves of wheat.

"General, congratulations to the Queen Mother, congratulations to the Queen Mother!"

Infected by everyone's emotions, Wu Zetian stood up and said majestically.

"Di Renjie issued an order to immediately deliver the great victory of Liangzhou to all prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty at a speed of 800 miles!"

"I want the world to know that our Tang Dynasty not only has a prosperous emperor, but also loyal ministers like Fan Xin who have made great achievements!

"I will obey your orders!"

As soon as the imperial edict was issued, hundreds of red-feathered messengers with flags on their backs rode out of the camp on fast horses and galloped towards the various states of the Tang Dynasty.

After the ministers left, Wu Zetian took out a few stacks of brocade silk from the box and stared blankly at the last words in the letter.

These brocades were the ones he had given to Fan Xin at the beginning, but he didn't expect him to save them all.

a long time.

Wu Zetian sighed softly.

"Huaiying, how should Fan Xin be rewarded for his great achievements?"

"this…"

Di Renjie hesitated. According to court practice, a person with meritorious service like Fan Xin would be promoted at least two ranks. But now that he is dead, he can only be given a posthumous title.

Seeing that Di Renjie was worried, Wu Zetian looked up at the night sky and sighed.

"This kid has been walking on the edge of life and death since he entered the officialdom. It's really hard on him."

"That's all, Fan Xin's reward will be solemnly announced in front of all the civil and military officials when I return to Luoyang and ascend the throne as emperor."

"Give his family and subordinates a fortune first, and it won't be in vain for these people to follow him.

Di Renjie bowed and walked to the desk, holding a brush in hand and preparing to draft the imperial edict.

"In the draft of the decree, Fan Zhonghua and his wife have made meritorious service in education and have been specially promoted to Chang Lehou. His wife, Zhou, has been granted the title of Lady of the State of Yan. His sister Fan Xiaolan has been taken back by the palace as a granddaughter and specially given the title of Princess Lanyang."

"The former Qianniu Guards Lieutenant promoted Liu Zi to Qianniu Guards General at his discretion, and Zhang Huan and Li Lang were promoted to the rank of Jinwu Guards General."

"Jiang Wen, the former minister of Dali Temple, was transferred to the governor of Youzhou, and Zhou Tong, the minister of the temple, was promoted to the rank of Shaoqing of Dali Temple."

"Lin Tie, the former Kogan Captain of Bozhou Zhechong Prefecture, Xu Qi promoted Youzhou to deputy general at his discretion.

Speaking of this, Wu Zetian sighed.

"The black wind horse has followed Fan Xin through life and death several times. It can be said that he has made great achievements without hard work. He was immediately canonized as the sixth-grade national sacred horse and allowed to walk in the palace.

Di Renjie's eyes twitched, feeling a little ridiculous and wanted to remind him aloud, but gave up after thinking about it.

After all, this great victory was achieved by Fan Xin, so it would not be too much to award his mount the rank of sixth grade.

Early the next morning, the officers and soldiers of the three armies continued their search, but unfortunately they could not find Fan Xin's body even after digging three feet.

Seeing the day to return to the palace, Di Renjie walked to the tent and cupped his hands.

"Queen Mother, we have been away from the center of the imperial court for too long. If we don't go back, I will worry that something will happen."

Wu Zetian glanced at the rubble in the ruins and said sadly.

"Fan Xin would rather risk the serious crime of violating the imperial edict to come to Liangzhou to rescue him. I will always remember this sentiment in my heart.

"Forget it, now that the rebels in Luoyang have entered the trap, we should go back and close the trap.

"Get off and drive back to the palace!"

Just when the 90,000-strong Beijing army was marching towards Luoyang.

A red-feathered messenger with a command flag on his back rode a fast horse and arrived in Luoyang ahead of them.

Everyone along the way shouted loudly to the general to use his troops like gods to kill the Tufan army of !

After hearing the news, the noisy Luoyang Street suddenly became quiet.

From the princes and nobles to the common people, everyone stared blankly at the messenger speeding past.

There is an unreal feeling. Some time ago there were rumors that the Tibetan army was surrounding Liangzhou and that the Queen Mother was in danger.

Why did it turn into a heavy killing of 40,000 Tibetan troops in the blink of an eye?

However, when they heard the name of General Fan Xin, the people of Luoyang were relieved again.

They all smiled and nodded.

With General Fan Xin there, it was unmistakable. Just like before, there was still the familiar smell of good news.

next moment.

Deafening cheers suddenly erupted in Luoyang City to celebrate this rare victory.

Internal Guards House.

"What are you talking about? Fan Xin severely damaged 40,000 Tibetan troops by himself?"

The figure behind the screen suddenly stood up and stared at Peng Hai who was kneeling on the ground in shock.

She didn't expect that the trap she had set so hard would be destroyed by Fan Xin.

He didn't even expect that Lun Qinling, the famous first general, would be so vulnerable.

Peng Hai knelt on the ground and nodded in fear.

"Back to the Snake Master, I heard that all the 30,000 vanguard troops in Lun Qin Ling were buried under the rubble, and only a few hundred people survived.?

"Then the Tang troops who were ambushed all around swarmed up, leaving four thousand prisoners behind and fled in embarrassment."

"Oh!"

A palm smashed the table, and the figure behind the screen said angrily.

"Trash! They are all trash! What nonsense is the first general of Tubo!"

"A hundred thousand troops were beaten so miserably by a single Fan Xin, is he worthy of being called the elite of Tibet?"

"Now it's a good idea to ruin the plan that I have been working on for many years!"

Peng Hai wiped the cold sweat with his sleeve and stuttered.

"Snake Lord, calm down, it won't matter even if Wu Zetian comes back."

"The three generals Cao Wei and Jiang Ji have become ours."

"As long as they dare to enter Luoyang, they will be buried!"

Hearing that Cao and Wei had chosen to be loyal to him, the figure behind the screen softened his tone a bit.

"Call the three generals here tomorrow morning. It's time for those ministers to see my strength.

"I obey!" Peng Hai clasped his fists and left the Imperial Household.

A pair of white and tender jade feet were pushed away from the screen and walked out, looking at the disappearing back and sneering repeatedly.

"Wu Zetian, you never dreamed that I would control an army of 100,000 people, right?"
