Tang's dining table

In fact, there was no need for Yang Jing and the three Wang brothers to lead the way. Those Mohe people who were running around had already led Yunchu's army to Dongmu Mountain.

There are wooden houses everywhere here, stretching almost from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, there are tall wooden fences serving as walls.

When the guards on the fence saw a chaotic group of soldiers returning from their homeland, they immediately blew their horns.

And these defeated soldiers who finally escaped back shouted to the tribesmen on the fence, "Escape quickly." Then they fell to the ground from exhaustion.

Yunchu's army chased them for two full days, and did not give them much time to rest during these two days, so that they had only one thought in their heads - to inform the tribesmen to flee, but they forgot that they were the ones who took the enemy away. It was brought here from a hundred and fifty miles away.

Seeing large swaths of Tang troops advancing into the walled city, the horns blown by the Mohe people on the fence made them look extremely desolate and sad.

Yang Jing looked at the young and strong men who were slowly hacked to death by the Tang people, and said to Yun Chu regretfully: "General, what a pity."

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "It's nothing to regret. Emperor Taizong treated the Mohe tribe so favorably back then, but these people still stabbed Emperor Taizong in the back during his Eastern Expedition.

If I leave them alive, I will definitely regret being too merciful today when I am attacked from behind by them in the future.

Since they were wild and untamed, and their hearts were not in the Tang Dynasty, they should have suffered such a death. "

Wen Wen looked at the chaotic Dongmoushan camp and sighed, "We received the order from Chang Shi and ordered us to move the captured Mohe people to Yingzhou."

Yang Jing, Wang Zhao and others' eyes lit up, and they immediately came over and said: "The general is busy with military affairs, why not leave this matter to us?"

Yun Chu looked at Yang Jing, Wang Zhao and the others with a half-smile but said, "That's fine, but the wealth here has nothing to do with you."

Wang Zhao immediately said: "This is natural. The general will not make money for evil in the world, and the villain will only have one life. Even if he goes to the Netherworld Ghost Mansion in the future and meets the ghosts of these people, the villain will not be afraid. They were children when they were born." People are not afraid, even if they become ghosts, villains are even less afraid.

Now that the overall situation has been decided, General, please wait and see what we can do. "

Yun Chu saw that his men were also very tired, so he motioned to the Tang army to get out of the way and let these people lead the slave soldiers to open the mountainous fence group.

It has to be said that many things require professionals to do them skillfully. These slave soldiers seem to be very familiar with the fences here. Some slave soldiers used bows and arrows to suppress the women who were shooting arrows randomly on the fence.

The rest of the men broke open the wooden wedges connecting the fences, then used their horses to drag the fences, pulling the thick logs out of the ground and throwing them aside.

People who work well can give people a wonderful sense of rhythm. The work that Yang Jing, Wang Zhao and the others were doing with the slave soldiers had a wonderful sense of rhythm. In a moment, they had broken through it. Five fences.

Every time a fence was broken, the Tang army, eager to make a fortune, quickly moved forward to seize the position. After all nine fences were opened, the Tang army rushed in.

Yun Chu, Wen Wen, Zhong Kui, Wang Defa, and Zhang Donghai did not enter the fence to rob, but made pots of tea.

Wen Wen looked at the water that had not yet boiled and whispered: "How about turning the gold, silver, copper, pearls to the public, and the remaining soldiers can take it for themselves?"

Wang Defa chuckled and said: "Chang Shi is so generous. He left the largest number of furs in the Mohe tribe to the boys below."

Gentle and gentle said: "Follow the county magistrate, you must pay attention to two words, that is fairness.

Generals and lieutenants need fairness, and the soldiers below also need fairness. Everyone brings their own weapons and armor to this barren place to fight for the country. If they don't get enough benefits, who will be willing to follow the general next time? The school captains were fighting to the death with the enemy on their way out of the Pass. "

Even after being cleaned, the smell of blood on Zhong Kui's body was still very strong. He was immersed in a wonderful artistic conception. He didn't care at all about the interests discussed by everyone. He seemed to be obsessed with killing.

That's right. He obviously looks like a butcher, but he still wants to write and write. He didn't take the right path, so it was naturally bumpy.

The adults in the camp were shouting, and the sounds of children crying were carried to the other side by the mountain wind, and did not reach the ears of Yun Chu and others.

As evening approached, Yunchu and the gentle soldiers brought back five or six large boxes, placed them in front of a few people, and left in a hurry again.

At this time, Can Guan tea had been drunk three times. With the arrival of the goods, everyone lost interest in continuing to drink tea.

Wang Defa and Zhang Donghai, who were feeling itchy and unbearable, opened the big box in front of them and moved the box full of pearls to Yunchu's feet without hesitation. The box full of gold ingots was placed at Wen Rou's feet, and the other three boxes filled with gold sand were placed under Yun Chu's feet. Then there will be one for each of Zhong Kui.

Yun Chu used a tea bowl to dig out a bowl of pearls from the pearl box and poured it into Gentle's helmet. He then dug out three more bowls and poured them into the helmets that Zhong Kui, Wang Defa and Zhang Donghai placed on the ground.

Wen Wen chuckled and took out three gold ingots from his box and placed them in the helmets of the other three.

Zhong Kui filled two bowls of gold sand in tea bowls from his box and placed them in the helmets of Wang Defa and Zhang Donghai.

Zhang Donghai and Wang Defa each dug out two bowls of gold sand from their boxes and poured them into the helmet of a soldier, indicating that the gold sand could be counted as a reward for the soldiers.

Only then did Yun Chu whisper: "You don't have any complaints, right?"

Wang Defa and Zhang Donghai knew that the general was asking them both, and they quickly said in unison: "It's fair."

Yun Chu stretched his waist and said, "From now on, we will divide it like this."

After hearing that General Dingyuan had formulated the rules for dividing the spoils, Wang Defa and Zhang Donghai immediately became happy, because such a distribution principle was the most beneficial to them, so they naturally had no complaints.

As for the soldiers, they can take other things they looted, such as furs.

Dongmu Mountain is not big. It is actually just a solitary peak. The foot of the mountain is surrounded by nine fences. The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty patrolled the peak. It was difficult to escape.

From this point, we can also see that the reason why Qiqi Zhongxiang made the camp like this is to trap the clan members.

After all, Mohe people do not like to live in a collective life by nature.

The largest storage in the camp is iron ingots, which weigh more than 50,000 kilograms. There are also a large number of semi-finished weapons stored in it, with knives, spears, and arrowheads being the most numerous.

Yunchu liked the dried meat stored by the Mohe people very much. As long as they were put into a stone mill to make powder and added to the fried noodles, the quality of the military rations could be improved to another level.

Yunchu stayed in Dongmou Mountain for two days before he finished counting the goods here. Then, the iron ingots were carried by the slaves. The Tang army, each carrying large and small bags, drove the horses carrying heavy supplies to Gaimou. City rushes.

During the six days when Yunchu was busy, the Tang army had already forced its way into Qishan, and the fastest runner was Cheng Mingzhen.

This middle-aged man, who was captured alive by Xue Rengui in the Battle of Diantjiangtai to Capture the Flag, vowed to avenge his disgrace on the battlefield.

However, Li Ji did not allow him to get close to Zhuzhi Mountain, so he could only set up camp in the six mountains near Zhuzhe Mountain. He could not advance even an inch before Anshi was captured.

At the same time, the front army commanded by Qibi Heli and Xue Rengui had arrived at Wugu City.

Cheng Mingzhen's 5,000 troops suppressed Anshi and did not dare to rescue Wugu City, while Qibi Heli and Xue Rengui's army suppressed Wugu City and prevented them from approaching Anshi.

In this way, the central army and the rear army led by Li Ji were able to defeat the Goguryeo cities in Liaodong one by one in an orderly manner.

After the surrounding cities were cleared, and the surrounding barbarians were cleared by the Tang army, the Tang army basically had a stable route for food and grass, and could make full efforts to plot against Wugu City and Anshi, the two largest Goguryeo cities in Liaodong.

Once these two cities were breached, Goguryeo could only defend the Yalu River, leaving little room for maneuver.

When Yunchu's army returned to Gaimou City again, the whole army was in an uproar.

Otherwise, the main reason is that the gains made by the Yunchu Army this time were too rich. The Mohe tribe's century-old accumulation of assets for the purpose of founding the country were all taken by the Yunchu tribe.

The reason why the other generals were angry was entirely because the soldiers of Yunchu tribe foolishly wore their fur clothes outside their armor in such hot weather in order to carry more furs.

They don't feel hot because the sun shines on the armor, which is the real heat.

Yun Chu went to his official mansion, which was now the city lord's mansion of Li Ji's official mansion, to hand over orders. As soon as he entered, he felt as if he had entered a den of tigers and wolves.

The generals of all the armies were there, and they were all watching eagerly, while Li Ji was sitting behind the table in the middle, his right index and middle fingers tapping the table regularly, his eyes cold and ruthless.

Only Jia Chunyan, the imperial censor sitting first on Li Ji's right hand, looked pleased and his joy was undisguised.

Seeing the environment in the lobby, Yun Chu immediately knew that if he wanted to pass the customs today, he must rely on Jia Chunyan, a civil servant.

So, he took a step forward, held the command arrow in both hands and saluted Li Ji and said: "Fortunately, the last general has fulfilled his mission and wiped out the Mohe tribe to deliver the command."

Li Ji put on a charitable face and said with a smile: "How much damage has been done to our army?"

Yun Chu said sadly: "One hundred and seventy-five soldiers of the government were lost in the battle, and 68 delinquents of Wannian County were killed. Tang Zong, the captain of Guoyi, died in the battle, Chen Yu, the captain of Wuhou, and two hundred generals died in the battle. , the whole army suffered more than 600 casualties."

Li Ji made some calculations, nodded and said: "It's still expected, what is the result?"

Yun Chu raised his head and looked at the generals present and said: "The formation killed sixty-one generals including Qiqi Zhongxiang, the leader of the Mohe tribe, and countless thieves. They destroyed the Dongmu Mountain camp of the Mohe headquarters and captured more than 16,000 women and children. Twenty thousand oxen and horses were brought back victoriously.”

After Yun Chu finished his answer, he thought he would receive warm congratulations. As a result, only Jia Chunyan congratulated him alone. The other generals were indifferent and were still waiting for Yun Chu to continue speaking.

Li Ji frowned and said, "You didn't mention a word about the capture in Dongmushan."

Before Yun Chu could speak, Jia Chunyan said from the side: "A mere savage tribe, apart from cattle and horses, what else can it say?"

Hearing what Jia Chunyan said, Yunchu perked up and said quickly: "We didn't capture many, so we gave them all to the soldiers as compensation."

After saying this, he raised the command arrow upward to signal the flag officer that it was time to collect the command arrow.

Li Ji said angrily: "There is really nothing else. I just heard that your subordinates entered the city wearing fur clothes. Does it mean that you, the general, left nothing behind?"

Yun Chu said puzzledly: "The general is not short of money. If you want money, it is much easier to make money in Chang'an than here. However, the soldiers under his command are all from Wannian County, Chang'an. As poverty grows, the general will So I gave them some scraps of harvest.

money? For the end general, it is really a dispensable thing. "

Li Ji was stunned by Yun Chu's words. They could share the things Yun Chu got, but it would be difficult to do anything if they were given to the soldiers. After all, everyone was not in the habit of drinking soldiers' blood.

Gao Kan said on the side: "I heard that when your army entered the city, the slaves were carrying heavy loads, and even the war horses were unbearable. What are they carrying?"

Yunchu sighed and said: "The gold, pearls and jade can't be eaten if I'm hungry, and I can't drink if I'm thirsty. What the general will bring back is of course iron that is useful to my army.

The beggar Zhongxiang was so ambitious that what he hid in the military stronghold was not gold, silver, pearls, but more than 100,000 kilograms of fine iron. "

Li Ji was stunned for a moment and said, "How much?"

Yun Chu cupped his hands and said, "More than fifty thousand kilograms of iron ingots, more than fifty thousand kilograms of semi-finished swords, spear heads, and countless iron arrowheads.

It's natural to bring back all such important things. "
