The post-war treatment of Beiting is quite simple, because there are precedents to follow. Their khan desires were sent to Chang'an by Qin Mubai to follow the example of Tubo's Zanpu abandoned ancestry and become a Taiping prefecture. From then on, there is no possibility of returning to the Western Regions.

Perhaps, it is precisely because of such a precedent that Yugu design and the mud are familiar with it that they "dare" to surrender-Datang's treatment of prisoners of war obviously dispelled their last worries. In the face of the invincible Guanxi Army, between the extinction of the genocide and the extinction of the country and the rest of his life in Amdu, the Turks of Beiting chose the latter.

However, for the great desert lords who are familiar with the mud, there is a very high voice in the Guanxi army to "rectify the law" to comfort Qin Shubao's spirit in the sky. Moreover, Ni Shu Si also took the initiative to ask Qin Mubai to die, and Bo Buzhenqin and Yu Gushe and others interceded together, which made Qin Mubai a little embarrassed.

A strong dragon can hardly crush a ground snake, but if there is a ground snake to help, then the situation is very different. Originally, Qin Mubai wanted to use some mud to sip this person, but his identity in front of him was too sensitive, so he had to give it up. So Qin Mubai arranged for him to "cannot be sick" and go home for the time being, and sent some people to protect him.

More than 200,000 troops surrendered together with Yugushe and Nishusu. This army has mixed good and bad, mostly civilian children of various tribes recruited by improvisation. Qin Mubai released half of them back to their homes to reunite them with their families, which won a round of applause and praise. Among the remaining soldiers, Qin Mubai selected 50,000 elite soldiers and incorporated them into the Guanxi Army cavalry squad, which further strengthened his team.

Although Qin Mubai and others have seized the time as much as possible, it took more than ten days for the aftermath of taking over Gongyue City and reorganizing and descending troops. At this time, the messenger sent to Kang also made a round trip. Qin Mubai got in touch with Su Dingfang and learned about the situation of Su Dingfang's battle on the Sam River.

As early as more than a month ago, Su Dingfang led his army to garrison at the Sam River to defend against large cannibals that might invade at any time. The food commander Nurman, who has been waiting for the news on the west side of the river bank, is known for his decisive use of soldiers, but he is obviously more cautious in the face of the land of the Western Regions that he has never set foot. Before learning that the Kang State on the east coast had increased its troops and received no reliable news of the internal response, Nuerman had been standing still and garrisoned troops on the west bank to wait and see.

The Sam River is a river in the north of Kang State, and it is a natural barrier for the entire Western Regions to the West. Kang Guo stationed troops here all year round and built many military harbor defenses. Even if Kang Guo's army has always been very ugly, it is not easy for Nuerman with a group of land ducks to forcefully break through the waterway into the Western Regions. Therefore, Nuerman painstakingly cultivated the inside line in Kangguo, in order to set foot in the Western Regions.

There is no news now, but the East Coast has increased its troops by more than 100,000. Nuerman realized that the situation had obviously changed. Now, he can only choose to retreat, or forcibly break through the Sam River. But he no longer knew about the opponent's commander, troops, and deployment situation, which made him very hesitant.

So, Nuerman's garrison waited and hesitated, and Su Dingfang stayed on the line of defense. The two sides held a stalemate on both sides of the Sam River for more than a month, and they didn't even fire a single arrow, just like two ferocious beasts are waiting and watching before they fight, in order to achieve a result with one blow.

After learning of this situation, Qin Mubai felt a little more stable. Before that, he had been worried that Su Dingfang, who had a huge disparity in military strength and fought in different places, could hardly resist Nurman, the Arab God of War. What worries him even more is the safety of Wu Meiniang.

Now, since Beiting has been wiped out, Qin Mubai can go to Kangguo with confidence. But this does not mean that the matter on Gongyue City has ended.

The two courts of the Western Turks, the northern and southern courts, are the two largest forces in the Western Regions. They compete with each other while operating the blueprint for their power in the Western Regions. Under their command, a large number of small countries and tribes in the Western Regions were collected. Now, Nan Ting has undoubtedly become a vassal of Datang. The Bei Ting has decided that Qin Mubai must come up with a feasible plan at this time to recruit and appease other small nations and tribes.

Qin Mubai gave these tasks to Khan Boshunqin in Nanting.

Qin Mubai invited him to Gongyue City and told him that he would present himself to the court and express the "contributions" of Nan Ting to help Datang ping the Bei Ting to conquer the Western Regions. Please quasi-Datang Emperor His Majesty Bo Bu Qianqin as The first governor of the "North Court Dudu Mansion".

In other words, Qin Mubai will not only place Anxi Daduhufu in Gongyue City, but will also place a "dudufu" under his jurisdiction to manage the aftermath of the North and South Courts. In this way, the native Khan King Bo Bu Yuqin became an official of Datang and became the "department manager" of Qin Mubai's subordinates.

It couldn't be more appropriate to let Bo Buzhanqin, the Turkic Khan King, handle the Turkic affairs.

Bo Bu Junqin has always admired Datang, and Nanting has always been well connected with Datang. The "du Governor" who can do the Datang might be conferred nobility in the future. He was too happy to be happy, so he agreed.

Later Qin Mubai heard that the first thing Bo Bu Zangqin did after he took office was to sip the mud. Qin Mubai didn't know exactly what method was used, and didn't ask. In short, the former desert man who used to be familiar with the mud, has now become a "worker" under the "department manager".

According to Qin Mubai's plan, only waiting for the memorial table to arrive at the imperial court, in the next few years, the land of the Western Regions that originally belonged to the Southern and Northern Courts will be divided into states and counties of Datang. That also means that from now on, there will be no more tents of Turkic Khan and Southern and Northern Courts in the Western Regions, only the great officials of the Tang Dynasty and the county towns.

In the battle of Gongyue City, Xue Renguiwei shocked the enemy, and Qin Mu’s white soldiers were not bloody. In less than a month, Datang started from Gaochang State and went to the Western Regions for thousands of miles, completely solving the Western Turks’ entrenchment. The most powerful force in the Western Regions. According to Qin Mubai's words, from now on, Datang will "cover the sky with one hand" in the Western Regions.

Qin Mubai left Bo Buchanqin with more than 100,000 troops to guard Gongyue City, and left the "God of War" in the eyes of Xue Rengui, a Turkic man, to assist him in taking care of the aftermath. Then, Qin Mubai personally led an army of more than 200,000, with Yuwen Hongtai as the pioneer, and marched at full speed to the suzerain state of Zhaowu's nine surnames-Kang Juguo!

In terms of historical origin, the nine surnames of Zhaowu are descendants of the Dayue clan, and later mixed with the Huns and Sogdians. They have never belonged to the Central Plains and are different from the Chinese nation. According to Qin Mubai's vision, countries and tribes such as the Southern and Northern Tribes of the Western Turks have always been enemies of Datang, and they must be conquered and integrated. The descendants of the Dayue clan and the Sogdians, in terms of historical origin and regional race, are not suitable for conquering and integrating him, and can only be used as neighbors and auxiliary wings.

There is no military difficulty, but it involves Datang’s international image and foreign policy. In the conquest of the Western Turks, the Datang was famous for the criminals who slapped the people; when the two courts of the South and the North were fused, they were invited to send troops by the Alliance of the South. Active" willing to join Datang. These all make sense and make sense.

The Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu, a descendant of the Da Yue clan, have always lived alone in their own country and have nothing to do with Datang. If the nine countries of Zhaowu were also conquered and integrated, then Datang would be referred to as an "aggressor." Now, in the name of sending troops, Qin Mubai is also out of the "invitation" of King Kangju to help friendly neighbors against the upcoming invasion of the food country.

Although Qin Mubai did not receive any so-called "invitation letter," Wu Meiniang, the first minister in charge of the military and diplomacy of Kang Guo, was present. The relationship between Qin Mubai and her was the letter of invitation.

Long ago, Li Shimin and Qin Mubai discussed the Western Regions Grand Time. They said that the Western Regions are full of races, religions, and beliefs. Therefore, to deal with the Western Regions issues, military is not the first priority, diplomacy requires the most caution. When the monarch and his ministers were constructing the blueprint for the Western Regions, they agreed upon a principle that diplomatic pacification was the top priority and military conquest was the bottom. Small countries such as Gaochang State with deep ties with the Han people can be confident and bold to conquer, persuade, and appease them; against rivals such as the Western Turks, it is necessary to carry out a strong military attack, and deal with it. Similar; For the nine countries of Zhaowu such as Kangju and Dawan, they can establish good-neighborly and friendly diplomatic relations with them, respect and preserve their national independence and national integrity, and make them the left and right arms of Datang in the Western Regions. The first barrier to the Western Arab world.

Qin Mubai comes from the 21st century, and his knowledge of international diplomacy is naturally beyond the Tang Dynasty. But Li Shimin could have such a clear understanding, and Qin Mubai had to admire him very much. Li Shimin, he is brave and wise, but he is not too happy to accuse him of being proud. He clearly knows the truth of "two fists are hard to beat four hands" and "satisfaction". No matter how powerful Datang is, the Central Plains is a country based on inland farming in Kyushu. It is of course a good thing to be able to expand the territory as much as possible during his lifetime. However, if we blindly carry out military expansion to the outside world, everything will be reversed, and the phrase "even though the country is big, belligerent must perish."

Therefore, the blueprint of the Western Regions delineated by Li Shimin is based on Congling, which is divided from the big food and the western countries. In the east of Congling, another country must be needed as a friendly neighbor of Datang to assist in the fight against the food. In this way, with a military buffer zone, Datang can maximize the huge commercial profits on the Silk Road.

Several efforts!

According to this calculation, the nine countries of Zhaowu, which are mainly engaged in business, are undoubtedly the best western "partners" of Datang.

This is the blueprint of the Western Regions that Li Shimin and Qin Mubai drew together.

Qin Mubai followed this blueprint and outlined it stroke by stroke.

Now, he has been standing in the capital of Kangju, before Samad built the city. Ready to start sketching, the final stroke of the whole blueprint.

"This is what the later generations will call the city of Samarkand!--It's a gorgeous and beautiful city!" Even Qin Mubai exclaimed.
