Chapter 276: Receiving Fucheng City

The next day, the Sui army began to enter Fuqi City at noon, but did not encounter resistance. Many Tuyuhun soldiers lost their weapons, and many nobles appeared and chose to surrender to the Sui army and strive for the opportunity for the people of the whole city to survive.

Luo Zhaoyun first entered the city with 20,000 soldiers, took over the jurisdiction of the four city gates, controlled the palace, government office, general's office, document library, granary, etc., and directly posted seals, not allowed anyone to enter and exit.

The garrison was still left outside the city to prevent the entire army from entering the city. At night, a Trojan horse attacked the city and directly killed the entire army in chaos.

Only when there are troops inside and outside the city, guarding each other and guarding each other, will the surrendered troops in the city be afraid to move.

Luo Zhaoyun ordered his subordinates: "Put a notice, the Sui army controls Fushicheng and does not disturb the people. Please ask the nobles and civilians here to live assuredly as possible, and wait for the imperial edict afterwards."

These notices were posted in the city gates, streets, markets and other gathering areas, and were widely spread by the Tuyuhun people. They were relieved and discussed the Sui general Luo Cheng, which deserves respect.

Although Luo Zhaoyun led his troops to capture their capital and was hated; he did not move any of them to the people, and did not wave his butcher's knife, and at the same time he also won respect.

When Murong Ziyan heard the news, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes swaying, but her cheeks showed a smile, thinking to herself: He is still a believer who keeps his promise.

"Sister, I miss my father and mother."

Murong Ziyan stroked his head with her hand and comforted her softly: "Don't think about it for the time being, keep it in my heart. Let's go to the Central Plains to see the world and study the Central Plains culture well. When you return to the plateau in the future, you must also make it stronger and not be bullied."

Suo Zhe nodded obediently: "Well, I understand, sister."

………

After defeating Tuyuhun, Luo Zhaoyun was ruthless and did not continue to pursue Tuyuhun, leaving him a way out.

He was waiting for the arrival of various troops and horses, and then successfully handed over, controlling the Qinghai area, opening up the connection with the northern Zhangye County and Dunhuang County, and directly connecting to Yumen Pass, ensuring the smoothness of the Hexi Corridor and no longer robbed by the Tuyuhun people. Soon, dozens of countries in the Western Regions could trade with the Great Sui Dynasty, and restarting the Silk Road of the Han Dynasty.

In order to avoid suspicion, Luo Zhaoyun has always lived outside the city to avoid being impeached by the censor and political enemies.

There are many such allusions in history. Many victorious generals, who were too happy after conquering the royal city, lived in the palace to drink and have fun, or were greedy for wealth and robbed some treasures. They were later revealed, falsely accused of being a rebellious, and the desire to become a king. Many generals did not die on the battlefield, but died under the court's memorial.

Luo Zhaoyun has a lofty goal and is clear about many things in history, so he will not make these low-level mistakes.

That night, Luo Zhaoyun drank with Hou Junji, Changsun Wuji, Ning Wufei, Chao Wei, Mei Changfeng, Tuoba Yi and others in the camp, and talked about the victory over the past few days, which was a small celebration banquet for his own people.

These people were extremely sincere in their ability to command troops, and they were very respectful in their words and expressions.

Especially Changsun Wuji, who is fifteen or sixteen years old, was once gentle and kind, just like a Confucian scholar. Now, after more than two years of life in the frontier, he has been exposed to wind and sun, sand, standing guard, charging forward, and his body has become much stronger and taller.

"General Luo, now I am increasingly agreeing with the sentence you wrote back then: It is better to be a centurion than a scholar. Being a general is too satisfying, and it is full of masculinity."

Everyone laughed and ate meat and drank wine with big bowls. It was very enjoyable.

Luo Zhaoyun looked at Changsun Wuji and Dun Dun taught, saying: "We will prosper in troubled times, and prosper in prosperous times. Military generals will only be valuable in troubled times. If they are in prosperous times, they will be suppressed, and no emperor will feel at ease with the general. Therefore, if you have a greater future, you must go to Beijing to be prime ministers, join the prime minister's team, and make decisions on the court. Only in this way can we live a life of blood and become generals. The opportunity is difficult. If you fight and kill all day, you will be annoyed one day!"

After hearing this, Changsun Wuji was stunned. He never thought that General Luo, who had always led troops, would say this.

Hou Junji nodded. After all, as he was older, his views on the world and the official career have improved and his horizons have been broadened.

"What General Luo said makes sense. We are all military men. In addition to leading troops on the battlefield, we also have to read more books in our daily lives. When the opportunity comes, we may also be able to return to the court to become officials, or be promoted and assigned to local governments."

Luo Zhaoyun smiled and said, "That's what you mean. You can't expect to fight and kill for a lifetime. Due to family restrictions, it is difficult for you to be promoted to another class. You can consider being promoted to the local military commander and other commanders to guard the local peace."

Hou Junji asked: "General Luo, what are your plans? The Tuyuhun war is over. I'm afraid there will be no war in the Great Sui Dynasty?"

Luo Zhaoyun sighed, "The matter here is over. I have been in the border for nearly three years. I guess the court will transfer me back to Beijing to report my life. You should stay here for the time being. After all, I personally formed the military camp and reorganized. Everyone is familiar with it. When you promote it in the future, you will not encounter too many obstacles. If you don't have any wars, you can learn military tactics from Li Jing more and read some books. It will always be of great use in the future."

"There will be wars in the Sui Dynasty in the future. Will we need us?" Someone asked, after all, they were worried that they would stay here for decades without war, and they would waste their time.

Luo Zhaoyun hesitated for a moment and said ambiguously: "Things in the world are unpredictable. If you have the greatest prosperity, you will decline. Wait. There will always be a place for us to use our skills. At that time, we will blew the call of assembly and we will gather again to kill the battlefield!"

"We are willing to follow General Luo when we swear to death!" Everyone drank too much and their hearts were overwhelmed.

Luo Zhaoyun smiled slightly, looked at these faces and felt a move in his heart. Perhaps in the future, these people will become their capable generals. How will the fate of the Great Sui Dynasty go next? (To be continued.)
