The army set out, and Luo Zhaoyun returned to Beijing. The team was vast, with 50,000 or 60,000 people, the imperial guards in the palace, the army and horses of each guard, and more than 20,000 prisoners accompanied.

These Turkic prisoners had no weapons or war horses in their hands. They were escorted all the way and were sent to a temporary prison outside the capital for detention, and then sent to Jiangling to cooperate with Li Jing's army to attack Xiaoliang's city.

At this time, the morale of returning triumphantly was completely different from the mentality when setting off.

Many soldiers were very excited and defeated the Turkic army, defeating the more with fewer ones, and once again they were like a miracle and defeating the enemy.

The flags floated, the team lined up in a long queue, the soldiers and armor were flying, the iron hooves were shaking, and they returned to the capital.

Outside the south gate opposite Zhuque Street in Chang'an City, Empress Changsun and his civil and military ministers were waiting here to greet His Majesty and congratulate him on Triumph.

The team slowly came and approached the capital. Outside the Shiliting Station, there were officials from the Ministry of War who were welcomed by the troops. If they were not here, the Lord Bo and others, they would make arrangements for the troops returning to Beijing first. It would be impossible for them to bring all the troops into the capital with their armor. Some troops from all over the country mobilized to serve the king to set up camp here and then wait for arrangements.

Luo Zhaoyun only brought the Imperial Guard back to Beijing, and the Turkic prisoners were also taken here, waiting for future mobilization and resettlement.

"Boom!"

All of them are sharp-armored and light-carriages, making a comeback, dust is flying, people are like tigers, horses are like dragons, and under the sunlight, the iron armor shines.

"Your Majesty is back."

All the civil and military ministers in the court saw dragon flags flying at the gate of the south capital, and the cavalry rushed over. They saw that it was the flag and formation of the Imperial Guard. They were all happy.

There are officials from the three provinces, six ministries and nine ministers, as well as officials from the twelve guards, but the ranks are all above the fourth rank, so it is impossible for all small officials to come to the team.

On the periphery of the soldiers, there were crowds of people coming to watch the fun and welcoming the emperor to return in person.

"Long live your life when you see Your Majesty!"

When Luo Zhaoyun rode his horse close, Chunyu Wan'er, the civil and military officials, the soldiers guarding the armored people, and all the onlookers knelt down.

Luo Zhaoyun walked over, reached out to help Changsun Wurong up, let her stand beside her, and then said to the civil and military ministers, "Don't give me a gift, get up."

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Everyone stood up, and when they saw Your Majesty, most of them showed excitement.

Changsun Wuji stood up and bowed, "Your Majesty personally led the army to defeat the Turks, return triumphantly, solve the border troubles in one fell swoop, and make great achievements, and praise the world!"

Luo Zhaoyun heard Changsun Wuji praise this and smiled and said, "I am the magnificent of the Nine Five. When facing danger, I should stand up and solve the problem of upside down. It is supposed to be that the northwest is stable and the Turkic Khan is dead on the battlefield. After that, the Turkic Khan will not recover. My Dahua will no longer have the border chaos. Next, we should stabilize the world, rest and resume production, and be in trouble. Except for some separatist forces in the south, such as Xiao Liang and Du Fuwei, other places have entered a war-free period. Development, and peace of the people has become the top priority. My family, we must change our thinking in time and contribute to the prosperity and prosperity of our great prosperity!"

"We will remember Your Majesty's teachings!" After listening to Your Majesty's lectures, the ministers kept nodding.

In terms of governing the country, Luo Zhaoyun's views naturally have more and farther than those civil and military ministers. What is the current situation? Through his feedback from the intelligence network and his familiarity and insights into history, it is easy to recognize the current situation.

After the chaos, I thought to myself. After the wars of the Sui Dynasty, the heroes were divided and displaced, and the people were affected by wars, hunger, plagues, famines, etc., the population dropped sharply by nearly one-third, and most of them died of starvation and illness. Because the wars would affect farming, the treasury of several national treasurys in the Sui Dynasty, although there was surplus in the warehouses, they were all plundered from the people. However, there was not much surplus grain at home in various places. If they did not farm for a year, they would probably starve to death.

This is the biggest disaster brought by wars and troubled times, which is that farming is not timely and is abandoned, and men are taken to war, and civilians transport grain, resulting in a shortage of labor. In addition, most of them flee, few people are engaged in production.

In the year Luo Zhaoyun entered Chang'an, he has been constantly issuing government decrees. The most urgent task is to stabilize the people's hearts and let those refugees return to their hometowns. Local prefects and county magistrates organize land distribution, implement household registration, restore farming, and protect the people's harvest, so as not to cut off food.

"Let's go back to the palace first, we will discuss matters tomorrow morning!" Luo Zhaoyun asked all officials to disband and go home. He took the queen's hand and walked up to the palace dragon chasing. Under the protection of the Da Neiyi Guard, he walked along the Suzaku Street and towards the palace.

The lights and decorate along the way were all festive. The streets were crowded with people on both sides. When the palace carriages passed by, the people of Chang'an all bowed and bowed and shouted long live.

Changsun sighed, "Your Majesty personally led the army to fight with less, which broke the people's worries. Many of the theory of quick destruction and failure have disappeared. Winning this battle is a wonder of military use. No one expected that he would win so beautifully!"

Luo Zhaoyun thought that tens of thousands of soldiers died in the battlefield, and the process was thrilling, and he completely competed for endurance and courage. If he was defeated, he would probably be destroyed. The result of victory seemed perfect, but it was actually very difficult.

"It's not easy. Our army has about 60,000 to 70,000 people, all killed in battle. This victory is also a huge sacrifice. Otherwise, how can we resist hundreds of thousands of Turkic cavalry? Fortunately, the war ended and the Turkic troubles in the northwest were solved. We can govern the country with peace of mind and no worries."

"Next, Xiao Liang, Your Majesty will not lead troops to the war, right?" Empress Changsun asked worriedly.

Luo Zhaoyun hesitated and sighed, "There are several separatist regimes in the south that are unstable, and it is difficult to compete with the heroic cavalry of our Dahua army. Li Jing concentrates on attacking Xiao Liang. Next, I will send Xu Shiji to gather troops from Luoyang to move south to deal with Du Fuwei, Fu Gongtuo and Li Zitong's territory. I will handle state affairs with peace of mind and stabilize the court."

After a moment of silence, Luo Zhaoyun said in a double sentence, "At the beginning of the founding of the country, the world seemed to be stable, but in fact it was undercurrents. I cannot make a wedding dress for others. My battlefield is not in the southern country, but in the court, the complexity of the family will also affect the development of the new policy and have to be laid out in advance."

"Oh, Your Majesty's wise!" Empress Changsun was silent, involving political affairs, so she was inconvenient to ask too much.

Luo Zhaoyun looked at the streets and crowds outside the curtains and smiled faintly. Although the Tang Dynasty was a prosperous era in history, relatively speaking, the people in this era are still poor. Droughts, Yellow River floods, locust plagues, plagues, etc. have also occurred many times in the Tang Dynasty. The poor often died and injured hundreds of thousands or millions. He wanted to change these aspects of the suffering of the people so that his people could live better.
