Chapter 462 Heavenly Prestige
"Beat the drum, gather the generals!"
Qin Lang's complexion was flushed and he was extremely excited.
The battle drums in the big camp sounded, and everyone was very excited. When everyone heard the drums, they couldn't help but put down their work and looked at the big tent of the Chinese army.
Qin Yong is studying the matter of digging tunnels to blow up the city wall. He is considering where to dig, how many tunnels to dig, how much explosives to use, etc., and listens carefully to the sound of the drum.
"Let's go to the big tent of the Chinese army."
One after another, the generals and school came.
Yang Jiyuan was tired at first, and after drinking some soup, he was taking a nap when the sudden sound of drums woke him up. He sat up and shouted in panic, "But the Qin army attacked the city?"
"Hurry up, defend the city, and don't let the Qin people attack."
Yang Jiyuan shouted hysterically, ignoring the disheveled hair, jumped off the bed with bare feet, and ran outside.
The dock was already in chaos, and everyone was panicked by the sound of the drum.
"Go to the city, go to the city, all go to the city!"
There was chaos in the dock for a long time, and finally a few thousand young men went up to the fort wall to strengthen the defense, preparing to meet the enemy, but they waited for a long time, but did not see any movement from the Qin camp.
Waited for a long time, but no one came to attack.
When they were waiting impatiently, they finally heard the movement.
Under the twilight, the Qin camp erupted into cheers and shouts, shaking Yunxiao.
The clamor became louder and louder, and shouts such as Wansheng and Long Live could even be heard mixed in with it.
Yang Jiyuan was wearing a nightgown and was barefoot, holding a horse spear in his hand. He frowned and listened there. After listening for a long time, he was still confused.
"Could it be that the Qin thief rebelled here?" Yang Xun said.
Yang Jiyuan didn't want to respond to this stupid remark, if Qin Lang wanted to rebel, wouldn't it be possible to rebel during this kind of siege?
But how can you say Long live and victory?
Long time.
The Qin camp opened wide.
Qin Lang rode a black horse, and brought a group of generals to Wuxia, beaming with joy and excitement.
"Duke Yang is here, can you come and tell me!"
Yang Jiyuan couldn't figure out what the trouble was, but in the end he bit the bullet and stepped forward, standing on the crenel and shouting, "Duke Wei, forgive Yang for being far away!"
Qin Lang laughed at the base of the city, and rode his horse forward another ten steps.
Yang Xun picked up the bow and wanted to shoot a cold arrow. Yang Jiyuan stared at him, and Yang Xun put away the bow embarrassingly.
"Mr. Wei, what advice do you have?"
Qin Lang sat on the horse, only thirty steps away from the city.
He didn't even wear armor.
"I just got a great news. The truth has been announced to the whole camp. The cheers in the camp just now must have been heard by Yang Gong. Now I am here to tell Yang Gong."
"I don't know what good news it is?" Yang Jiyuan was startled, could it be that the deputy Wu was captured by the surname Qin again?
"Not long ago in the Tang Dynasty, the six armies all sent out together, a total of 180,000 elites to attack the Turks in the north, but now Chang'an has a good news and spread to the south. Jieli Khan was defeated in several battles and was defeated. He was beheaded by my Tang Dynasty. One hundred thousand, and millions of miscellaneous animals. Jieli Khan and Ke Dun were captured alive and sent to Chang'an, the Eastern Turks are dead, and all their land belongs to the Tang Dynasty!"
Qin Lang declared impassionedly and loudly.
"Mr. Yang, don't you think this is a great thing? I heard that Mr. Yang once entered the Central Plains to accompany Yang Guang, the former emperor, and was besieged by Shibijieli brothers for dozens of days at Yanmen Pass. The Duke defended the emperor of the Yang family to death, and was seriously injured? Now that Jieli has been captured and sent to Chang'an, and the Eastern Turks have perished, does this make Duke Yang angry?"
Qin Lang's words echoed over Lang Son Dock.
Yang Jiyuan was stunned and completely froze on the spot.
"How can this be?"
Yang Jiyuan was originally a general under Li Fozi in Jiaozhou. Later, after Sui Ping Li Fozi, he surrendered to the Sui Army, served in the Jiaozhou Military Academy, and joined the army in Linyi.
He conquered Goguryeo with Yang Guangdong. He saw the huge army of millions in the Sui Dynasty, but he also saw the fierceness, tenacity and cunning of the Goguryeo people.
The siege of Yanmen also allowed him to see the fierceness of the Turkic people. At the same time, he also saw the corrupt nature of the Sui Dynasty. The home is at the beginning of Lang Son's hegemony.
Bi Khan sent 400,000 cavalry to attack Yang Guang in a surprise attack. In a short period of time, almost all the dozens of cities in Yanmen County were destroyed, leaving only two cities to resist.
During that siege, Yang Jiyuan was injured several times, and an arrow wound was almost shot in the heart. If he hadn't missed a little bit, he would have died in Yanmen.
He has personally experienced the toughness of the Turks.
And these years in Jiaozhou, whenever he heard news about the Turks, he would pay special attention to one or two, which may be related to the previous wars.
Every time I hear that the Turkic people are so tough, from the beginning to the end, from everywhere to Xieli, the brothers of the wolf family are more ruthless than each other.
In Chang'an, it was reported that the old prince had been punished by the king of Qin for plotting rebellion and rebellion. Less than two months after the king of Qin became the new prince, the Supreme Emperor abdicated and the new prince ascended the throne. When they arrived in Guanzhong, they drank the Weihe River and went straight to the city of Chang'an.
When he heard the news, Yang Jiyuan sighed again and again. The Turkic barbarians in the northern grasslands were too strong. They could not be contained from the Sui Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty. Back then, it was not possible to strengthen the Sui Dynasty. How can the Tang Dynasty be the opponent of the Turks now?
He also judged that in the future the Tang Dynasty would be bullied by the Turkic people, and even believed that the Tang Dynasty would not be strong enough to surpass Yang Sui, and that the Tang Dynasty might collapse and the world would be in chaos again.
It's just that no one could have imagined that Li Shimin, who immediately conquered the world and was even suspected of a palace change, managed the court in an orderly manner in just two or three years after he succeeded to the throne, even far better than Emperor Wude.
When he heard that the imperial court had launched a six-way northern expedition, he was shocked.
But I also think that this is because today is more good at fighting, and I found an opportunity to use tricks to separate the Turkic monarchs and ministers, which led to Turkic civil strife and gave Tang an opportunity to take advantage of it. However, I still think that this Northern Expedition will not have much effect. The result may be That is to say, Xieli conceded to Datang and became a vassal, but it would not change the fundamental situation.
With the characteristics of the Turkic people, it may not be ten years before they can make a comeback, and maybe they will kill Chang'an again next time.
But now Qin Lang told him that Xieli had been captured?
Hundreds of thousands of Turks were captured? Millions of miscellaneous animals became Tang army trophies?
How is this possible?
"There is another piece of good news. After Xieli was captured, Tuli Khan also asked to enter the court. Now His Majesty has accepted Tuli's request and summoned him to the court. He is specially conferred the title of King of Beiping County and the right guard. General, and gave the country the surname Li."
"Tuoshe Anasheer in Mobei has also requested to be attached, and after Yugushe was defeated by Xue Yantuo, he went west to attach himself to Western Turks."
"Eastern Turks are dead!"
"Duke Yang, with such great news, why don't you open the gate of the city, and we will toast and drink together, how about celebrating this great victory?"
Yang Jiyuan stood there in a daze, still unable to believe it.
Qin Lang took out the emperor's handwritten letter from Chang'an and asked Yang Jiyuan to read it himself.
"This is a letter written to me by His Majesty himself, Duke Yang can read it for himself."
A basket was tied down from the top of the city, and the letter was put up. Yang Jiyuan read it carefully, and found that it was indeed the tone of the emperor of Chang'an. Looking at the handwriting, it was written in Feibai. I heard that Li Shimin, the emperor of Chang'an, liked Wang Xizhi's calligraphy the most. good.
Look at the seal used on the letter, there is nothing wrong with it.
Holding the letter, Yang Jiyuan pondered for a long time.
There is only a long sigh at the end.
"Open the gate!"
"Grandfather?"
"Father, this may be the trick of the Qin thief, don't fall for it!"
But Yang Jiyuan has already decided to open the city. Before the battle, he overestimated himself and underestimated Qin Lang. After the start of the battle, he realized that he was alone and helpless, but Qin Lang had the support of the barbarians instead.
Not to mention the huge impact on Qin Lang after he easily beheaded his brother Yang Jichu.
He saw the determination and bravery of this young minister.
He, who was already riding a tiger, also knew that he was in a predicament. He knew that he was not only facing more than ten thousand people like Qin Lang, but behind Qin Lang was the Central Plains Great Tang, and there were countless more than ten thousand people.
Even if this battle can be won, how will it end?
The most terrible thing is that he has no confidence in winning this battle.
Now, when Qin Lang took out this good news and used it to persuade him to surrender again, he finally decided to use the ladder to go down the wall.
The dock gate slowly opened.
Yang Jiyuan put on a white robe, with disheveled hair without a crown, and he came to Qin Langma step by step.
Kneel on the ground, please surrender.
This gesture has been done enough.
Since you want to drop, then just go to the end.
The capital of the Yang family's hegemony in Lang Son is nothing to Qin Lang.
"Mr. Yang please get up!"
Seeing that Lao Yang had surrendered, Qin Lang put on a friendly face.
"I'm so confused, please forgive me!"
Qin Lang helped Yang Jiyuan up, and looked at this old guy, who could pick it up and put it down without a single path.
"Mr. Yang, I am really happy today. I must have a few drinks."
The people behind Yang Jiyuan had different expressions on their faces, some were unwilling, some were panicked, and some were bewildered.
Qin Lang supported Yang Jiyuan and shouted loudly, "I now officially declare that Langshan County will be established here, and with the privilege bestowed on me by His Majesty, Duke Yang will be granted the county magistrate of Langshan County, and Duke Yang will be entrusted with the grace of Langshan County. The Viscount of Shan County, Langshan County implements the law of two taxes, and one third of the tax revenue goes to the Yang family."
"The Yang family's fields, houses, money, etc. are protected by the laws of Qin Lang and Tang Dynasty, and no one may violate them."
Yang Jiyuan sighed softly. At this time, Qin Lang could still keep his promise and still preserve the Yang family, which moved Yang Jiyuan very much. Qin Lang didn't take advantage of the fire and directly occupied Lang Son.
"Mr. Wei, I have an unfeeling request. My little granddaughter was sent to Mr. Wei before, and no one at home could give her a lively etiquette. Now I want to make up for her in Lang Son. I wonder if Mr. Wei can do it." Is it allowed?"
Lao Yang brought up the old matter again. At this time, he wanted to make up a concubine ceremony. Naturally, he wanted to make the future of the Yang family more secure.
Qin Lang smiled.
"sure!"
Qin Lang's words made a war disappear, the Yang family took the initiative to open the city and surrender, Qin Lang gave the Yang family the same treatment as the Nong family, Lang Son was established as a county, and old man Yang served as the county magistrate.
The properties of the Yang family are also protected.
Even in order to reassure the Yang family, Qin Lang also agreed to the Yang family to make up a concubine ceremony.
The Yang family said they would invite guests from all walks of life to witness, Qin Lang also agreed with a smile.
Although he also thought about taking advantage of the opportunity of the family's resistance to uproot the mighty Yang family, in the end Qin Lang changed his mind after they surrendered.
In a wild place like Wu'an Prefecture, there are still too many forces whose enemies are unknown. If you want to gain a foothold here, you must make as many friends as possible and make fewer enemies. It is easier and more likely to cause public outrage.
As for the aftermath of accepting surrender in this way, it can only be said to be slowly digested and resolved.
"Duke Wei, the old man is here to lead the horse for Duke Wei, please enter Lang Son!"
Old Yangtou took the initiative to lead the horse for Qin Lang.
Qin Lang smiled and said, "Then thank Duke Yang, let's go, enter the city!"
Lang Son fell without a fight.
At dusk that day, Qin Lang entered Lang Son City with several thousand troops.
Outside the city, Yang Jichu's head was also removed. He and the hundreds of dead in Qingfeng Castle were named as a misunderstanding and were thrown aside.
Yang Jiyuan sent someone to take Chongniang back.
Wuzhu Mansion has been given over to Qin Lang and his troops. Yang Jiyuan gave Qin Lang the northern city of Yangwu, and moved to the southern city with his family.
