I wrote a long memorial to Li Shimin, reporting the unconditional surrender set up by the Gulf of Yu. Eighty thousand Turkic soldiers were disarmed, and thousands of miles south of the desert once surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. The fastest update

Li Chao recovered Monan without spending a single army, and brought no less than 200,000 Turkic herders.

But after writing the memorial and sending it to Xiangyang, Li Chao sat there and sighed.

"Why are you not happy?"

Pingyang was puzzled. This was a great achievement, a great joy.

"What's so happy about? I lost 200,000 slaves, not to mention millions of cattle, sheep and horses. Just think about it, I feel that I have lost a lot and my heart hurts."

Pingyang was speechless after hearing what Li Chao said.

"It's good to do this. It's against the will of heaven. Just treat it as a way to accumulate some virtue for the children in my stomach!"

Li Chao was indeed depressed. He had already given such harsh conditions for Yugu to force him to escape or start a fight.

If Yugu escapes, he will definitely be able to escape a small part of him, and he will definitely not be able to win. At that time, will the hundreds of thousands of people and millions of cattle and sheep in the south of the desert become his spoils?

The Tang Dynasty is now short of labor everywhere, hundreds of thousands of slaves can sell them, how much money can they generate income for the court, especially how many nobles and merchants can provide cheap labor.

Not to mention those cattle, sheep, horses, tents, property, etc.

But now that Yu Gushe accepted unconditional surrender so timidly, Li Chao could no longer turn these Turks into slaves, and Li Chao could not rob their property.

After all, they surrendered, and the court believed it. Even if they moved them to the Central Plains, their property still belonged to them.

Bai pulled 60,000 Xi Qi troops over, but he had no effect at all.

"I think this result is good, and Your Majesty will be very happy."

Of course Li Shimin would be happy. He picked up such a large area in the eastern part of the south of the desert for free and picked up more than 200,000 people. After these people were changed to the Tang Dynasty, they grazed cattle and horses for the Tang Dynasty, drove chariots for the Tang Dynasty, and served as soldiers for the Tang Dynasty. The court's strength increased greatly.

But for a great nobleman like Li Chao, it is of no use.

What they urgently need now are slaves, laborers, and preferably those unemployed vagrants, so that they can recruit them. But now these Turkic surrenders will definitely arrange them, and there will be no matter what they do.

The war is over.

It was a little thunder and a little raindrops. After a long time of hard work, the enemy was so timid, but the enemy was directly timid. Unconditional surrender was a bit boring.

Standing in the open gap, looking at the only simple military camp tents on both sides of the pass, Li Chao pointed at the mouth, "Monan has been surrendered. In the future, the north of the Seitou will build castles, reclaim wasteland, set up troughs, and even ranches. This place is a major road connecting the four places, and will definitely be very prosperous in the future. We should build a shop market here, and in the future, it will definitely become a prosperous commercial port like Jiangxin City in Longyou, Ningyuan City in Shuofang, Fengzhou City in Suiyuan, and Shangluo Gongling in western Liaoning."

Li Xiuning has become accustomed to Li Chao's wild thinking. He just talked about the Turks' surrender and national affairs. In a blink of an eye, Li Chao has already talked about business.

"Since you say there is a future here, it must be right. How much money I have in my hands? Anyway, you know that my living money is also stored in your money house. If you want to use the money, just use it. Anyway, you will never lose my share when you invest money with you."

Of course, Li Chao is not the one who will lose money to his women.

Zhangjiakou has a unique geographical location, especially since the south of the Mohe has been taken over. It is no longer a border, but is within the territory, and is very far from the northern border of the Mohe. At the same time, the Xiqi tribes have joined us now, and it is close to the other side. This place will definitely be very prosperous in trade in the future.

The profits of developing Zhangjiakou and building it into a border trade center like Ningyuan will be absolutely remarkable.

With the strength of the Li family, it is actually enough to develop Zhangjiakou alone, but since it is a profitable business, especially a very profitable business, Li Chao doesn't want to eat alone.

Eating alone is always annoying. If you have meat together, this is the kingly way.

As usual, Li Chao wrote to the families of Yuchi Gong, Li Ji, Qin Qiong, and Cheng Yaojin. At the same time, he also expressed his opinions to the powerful families. Those who are willing to come together would welcome them. Anyway, they would build such a large border commercial port, so they would not be afraid of many people.

The more people participate, the bigger the market will be. The bigger the market will be, the more you will make.

However, Li Chao had a rule first. He hoped that everyone could follow his plan and build Zhangjiakou into an orderly and large-scale commercial port from the beginning, rather than a messy place.

Su Zhi and Duluobai came for a trip. Because of Yugushai's surrender, Li Chao promised them to obtain half of the cattle and sheep property after conquering the south of the Mo, and it was gone.

They made a vain trip, and they couldn't even get a sheep.

Because those Turks became the people of the Tang Dynasty, their property was protected by the Tang Dynasty and was sacred and inviolable.

Su Zhi and Duluo were not so brave enough to rob the property of the people of the Tang Dynasty. Although those people were enemies of the Tang Dynasty at the last moment, they were damn Turks.

The two of them were unwilling to go back like this.

When they heard that Li Chao was going to build a commercial port in Zhangjiakou, which was even larger than the Shangluo Gongzong, they were moved.

I found Li Chao and wanted to get a share of it.

They are not satisfied with just being a livestock and fur supplier, and they also want to have a place in this big commercial port.

"Yes, we are very welcome to our partners and we will refuse everyone, as long as everyone can agree on the same philosophy."

Li Chao didn't think there was anything wrong with letting the Xi Khitans take up a share in the Zhangjiakou commercial port, and everyone made money together. The Xi and the Khitans could also make money. If they made a lot of money here, they would also protect Zhangjiapin's interests in the future.

As long as you have money to invest in, Li Chao will treat everyone equally.

Su Zhi and Duluo were quite rich. As the chiefs, they had many cattle and sheep from the valley. The two expressed their willingness to use cattle, horse, camel and sheep to only invest in the shares. Li Chao said that Li Ji Money House was willing to guarantee them and provide them with bank tickets passed by the Tang Dynasty, while Li Ji Trading Company was willing to sell their livestock on behalf of them.

After Yu Gushi came, he didn't go back, so he asked his son to go back.

Next, tribes began to bring their families and drive cattle and sheep to Zhangjiakou.

Li Chao is quite polite to these herdsmen who moved south.

He allowed the herdsmen to keep a knife each, but the bows, arrows and spears were all confiscated, but some compensation was given. In addition, each of their households was allowed to take a few horses south, but their other flocks of cattle, horses, and sheep were directly purchased by the court.

Li Chao asked the Yanyun Jiedushi Yamen to borrow money from Li Jixian and distribute livestock purchase funds to the special people.

After passing the customs, the herdsmen were sent by the Jiedushi Yamen to various roads in batches. After arriving at the local area, they were dispersed and settled again.

There were many more than 200,000 herders, but they were scattered into the eighteen roads of the Tang Dynasty and more than 300 states. There were not many people in each place and they could not make any waves.

After arriving at the local area, whether they were arranged to grazing or plowing the fields, in short, they would not be Turkic people, but Tang people in the future.

Li Shimin was very satisfied with the recovery of Monan.

Yugushe was actually named a prince of Loufan by Li Shimin, and then invited him to Xiangyang.

Su Zhi and Duluo also received the order. When they heard that they had been named Prince, they could not even close their mouths when they smiled. Now they finally felt relieved.

Although the two tribes were set up as two districts and thirteen counties, they had no objection. Anyway, whether it was a district or a county, their people were still in charge.

It’s not Monan, unlike Yugu, who went to Xiangyang just to be a free king, and there will be no territory or population in the future.

The emperor also rewarded Li Chao.

However, Li Chao had nothing to appreciate, but he only rewarded many rare treasures.

Li Shimin classified the land in the south of the desert, including those offered by Yu Sheshai before, as the 19th road of the Tang Dynasty, the South Road of Mo.

Mo Nan Road starts from the west end of Yan in the east and reaches Langshan in the south.

Basically, the entire northern part of Yinshan Mountain, the southern part of the desert, and this vast area are all classified as the southern part of the desert.

To the south of Mo Nan Road is the Suiyuan Road of the Tang Dynasty. Suiyuan Road is the East and West Tak areas of the Yellow River.

The territory of Xi and Khitan, plus western Liaoning, was in the 20th road of the Tang Dynasty, western Liaoning.

In Daoli, Liaoxi Yingzhou is a prefecture directly under the imperial court, while Xi District and Khitan District are considered to be the quai District.

The eunuch Wang and the court chief under Li Shimin came to announce the imperial edict.

Eunuch Wang said to Li Chao with a smile on his face, "Li Xiang went to the expedition this time, not only repelled the attacks of the Goguryeo and the Turks, but also annihilated 50,000 Goguryeo and recovered western Liaoning. He then subdued the Xi and Khitan tribes, and then captured Monan without bloodshed. It only took more than half a year, and made such a great contribution. It really made the world look at each other and admired His Majesty."

After talking for a long time, Eunuch Wang actually wanted to tell Li Chao something.

After the war was over, the court did not intend to let Li Chao stay in the north.

"His Highness Xuan of the Crown Prince Xuan of the State Council returned to the court!"

The Yanyun Jiedushi Yai, a special yamen in charge of the military and political affairs of Jiuzhou, finally withdrew after the war.

The prince transferred Li Chao back to the court, and at the same time, he transferred 20,000 Northern Ya Shenji Army back to Beijing.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince announces my return to the court? Isn't it your Majesty's decree?"

Li Chao asked.

Eunuch Wang smiled.

"It was His Royal Highness, Prince Xuan, who returned to the court, but His Majesty also agreed."

Li Chao was a little confused. When he came, Li Shimin told him in person that resisting foreign invasion was superficial, and that it was the real way to let him go north to implement the new policy.

But now that the battle has just finished, Li Chao has just made a free move, why did he announce that he will go back at this time?

"Is there something wrong in the court?"

Li Chao asked.

Eunuch Wang shook his head, "Everything is fine in the court."

Li Chao thought about it for a while but couldn't think of it, so he had to say, "Well, then I'll go to court today!"
