Rebirth: The wedding night, my whole family was exiled, I raised 500,000 soldiers

Chapter 288: The Zhenbei Army won the victory and returned to Beijing in triumph!

Shen Lanxi smiled: "It's not us who are anxious now, it's Turkic and Abe Hiroshi. According to the conditions we proposed before, double it!"

Everyone gasped. In addition to the above conditions, the three tribes were also required to pay tens of thousands of dan of grain. Now the price has doubled. Their general really knows how to bargain!

While the peace talks were still going on, the three Turkic tribes had quietly withdrawn their troops from the cities they occupied.

"They finally reacted!" Shen Lanxi said meaningfully.

The eyes of Che Mingyuan and his companions lit up. In order to reduce the consumption in the Turkic matter, should they withdraw troops back to the imperial court for protection?

Soon the scouts came to report the news.

"The Turkic troops who withdrew quietly headed southwest."

To the southwest is the location of the Turkic imperial court.

"It must be that the Turkic Queen Mother was forced to abdicate."

Shen Lanxi: "Let our people prepare to take over the city, and write a memorial to the court, saying that we fought a bloody battle to recapture a city!"

Everyone: "..."

This city was too easy to capture!

After receiving the battle report, the imperial court publicly rewarded Shen Lanxi lavishly, but secretly urged her to recapture several other cities as soon as possible.

Shen Lanxi took the opportunity to ask for food, wages and supplies, and proposed that the court send more troops.

Emperor Renxiao thought about it for two days, then wrote an edict to announce it to the northwest.

The military power in the northwest is entirely under the control of Shen Lanxi!

Although those northwestern defenders had already shown signs of caution in their hearts, they were still under the jurisdiction of the imperial court on the surface.

Emperor Renxiao stood with his hands behind his back, looking towards the northwest with a thoughtful look on his face.

He gave the military power to her, and everyone in the world knew about it. Whether Shen Lanxi could accept it or not depended on herself.

If she can't even accomplish this, it only shows that her identity as a woman cannot convince others.

Shen Lanxi was waiting for this imperial edict. After receiving it, she immediately ordered people to spread the contents of the edict to every corner of the northwest.

Within two months, the Turks gradually withdrew from the cities they had occupied, and from then on all the occupied cities returned to the control of the Great Zhou.

When the Zhenbei Army entered the last city Fengling Pass, Shen Lanxi stood on the city wall holding the Companion Star Knife, dressed in red, and the Zhenbei Army and the people all surrendered!

The good news was reported back to the court, which made the emperor and his ministers excited every day.

"Six years, almost six years..."

"The Northwest has finally been pacified!"

Every minister's hands were shaking with excitement and he kept shouting.

Emperor Renxiao had a constant smile on his face during this period, and he even had two more laugh lines on his face.

"Well done, Zhenbei Army, great job!"

Court officials: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty..."

After Emperor Renxiao was happy, he smiled and said, "Now all we need is a piece of paper!"

On the third day after Shen Lanxi occupied Fengling Pass, she signed a ten-year peace treaty with the three Turkic tribes, and at the same time completed the delivery of prisoners of war and compensation!

Compared with the Tatars and Persians, the Turks suffered the greatest losses.

The Tatar and Persian envoys shook their heads and sighed as they signed and sealed the treaty. After completing the payment of compensation, they left in a hurry.

The Turkic compensation payment was scheduled for the last.

Abe Hiroshi is like a beast that has been defeated and no longer has the vigor and power of the past.

"Finally, I see you again!" The first words Abe Hiroshi said after seeing Shen Lanxi were an exclamation.

Shen Lanxi smiled and said steadily: "Congratulations, you can finally go back to your Turkic hometown!"

Abe Hiroshi's mouth froze. His mistake was that he underestimated this woman.

Now the mistake has been made and it can no longer be undone.

"The winner takes all, and I, Abe Hiroshi, am convinced!" Even if a man loses, he must be magnanimous and not let a woman look down on him.

Shen Lanxi knew that Abe Hiroshi was anxious to go back and seize power, but unfortunately, he had been away from the imperial court for too long, and the eighteenth prince, who had always been under his control, had long been out of his control. He was afraid that he was still kept in the dark!

Half a month later, the treaty was delivered to the court. Emperor Renxiao cried with joy that day and decided to open the Taimiao and inform his ancestors!

northwest

Shen Lanxi: "Get ready, we are going back to Beijing in triumph!"

Everyone was shocked, so fast?

For a moment, everyone had different thoughts.

"General, will we come back after we return to Beijing?" Will our power be taken away from us like when we were in Dongchuan?

Shen Lanxi glanced at everyone and finally set her sights on Wei Dongzhu.

Six years had passed in a flash, and Wei Dongzhu had grown into a majestic eagle in the northwest. The sons of the Shen family were also like eagles, handsome and tall, and able to stand on their own.

Liu Yanhui, Ban Sicao, Xiao Fang, Qian Feng, Cheng Zheng, Sang Guo... have all lost their youthfulness.

"It depends on you. If you want to come back, you can come back. If you don't want to come back, you can also come back!" Shen Lanxi said with a smile.

When Shen Yuanjing and his companions heard the news of returning to Beijing, they felt anticipation, disappointment, and reluctance.

They missed home, and their family members were all in Beijing, so they naturally wanted to go back home.

However, they were also reluctant to leave the Northwest.

They were still young when they left Dongchuan. Now that they have grown up, looking at the home they built bit by bit with their own hands, they are reluctant to leave.

Che Mingyuan: "It shouldn't be that fast. There are still many things to do." For example, pacifying the Wala tribes and winning over the soldiers from various cities who come to join the army.

It will take at least half a year to finish all these.

Shen Lanxi smiled without saying anything. Half a month later, the imperial edict ordering the troops to return to the capital was delivered.

"...After three years of absence, your family in Beijing misses you terribly. I hope the general will return to Beijing in triumph soon!" After reading the last few sentences, the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict respectfully presented it with both hands.

Shen Lanxi took it and said, "Your Majesty, I accept your order and thank you for your grace!"

……

"Fortunately, we made preparations in advance. I didn't expect that His Majesty would urge us to return to Beijing so quickly!" Shen Yuanjing said with lingering fear.

Shen Lanxi: "Follow the previously arranged instructions and set off for Beijing in five days!"

"Yes!"

The imperial edict specifically ordered Wei Dongzhu, Liang Shao and other famous people in the palace to return to the capital together, which was equivalent to her taking away most of the elite soldiers of the Zhenbei Army.

Within two days, Zhou Ru'an came with an imperial edict, which said: While the main force of the Zhenbei Army is in Beijing, Zhou Ru'an will temporarily take over the position of commander!

"General, Zhou Ru'an is here to pick peaches!" Xiao Fang and others were very angry.

Ban Sicao was so angry that he said, "I told you to give him some medicine, but you guys wouldn't stop me!"

Xiao Fang and others hurriedly explained in their hearts: It was not them who stopped her, it was her who stopped her.

Che Mingyuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "It's not too late to feed him a pack now!"

Ban Sicao was not stupid. He smiled and waved his hands: "It's too obvious to feed him now. I'll feed him after Zhou Ru'an returns to the capital. I guarantee that if the medicine doesn't kill him, he will die of starvation!"

Shen Lanxi: "..." This kid has a lot of ideas!

Shen Lanxi and her subordinates were busy arranging follow-up matters, sorting out baggage, and selecting people to return to Beijing.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict was still there, and since they knew they had to return to the capital, Wu Tong and others also became more motivated.

Even if you are not busy, you have to do it for these eyes and ears to see.

In the blink of an eye, the fifth day passed, the Zhenbei Army won the victory and returned to Beijing in triumph!
