Chapter 154
Previously, the Jingguan built by thousands of heads in Jixian County had wiped out the bandits in Youzhou, and now the news that more than [-] people were captured and beheaded was even more sensational.

The people of the six prefectures didn't care that Cui Che had joined forces with East Turkic and Kumoxi to achieve a weak victory. They only knew that the current governor of Youzhou was their own patron saint. There is no need to worry about Turkic invasion.

Tranquility is what the people in the frontier have always wanted.

Even the elders of the Lu clan in Fan Yang planned to pay their respects to Ji County when Cui Che returned.

Respect is earned by ability.

When the news spread to Dingzhou, the Cui clan members in Anping County were even more honored. Whether it was the third house or the rest of the houses, they would always boast to them about the battle of falling into the water when they went out to visit friends.

The Boling Cui family has no shortage of lieutenant generals, such as Cui Hongdu and Cui Hongsheng brothers who won the first rank of Yuchijiong in the battle of Yecheng, but they can't compare with Cui Che's brilliant results in any case.

No matter its scale, results or even influence, the great victory of the weak fall into the water is undoubtedly enough to go down in history, but Cui Che, who was the coach of the Sui army's side who planned this battle, was incompetent.

As Li Gang said that day, the world regarded him as the champion of the Sui Dynasty.

Every time the team in Guanzhong to escort the prisoners passed, the local people would flock to watch, and Cui Che's name finally resounded throughout China.

Changsun Sheng didn't have the patience to walk slowly with the captives. He took Apo Khan Daluo and hurried back to Guanzhong.

Yang Jian was informed of the results of the battle of weak and falling into the water, and that more than [-] captives were still on the way. To Cui Che's actions, he said that it was unnecessary, and it would be better to carve up with East Turks and Kumoxi on the spot.

But he was very happy in his heart. He ordered Changsun Sheng not to enter the city in a hurry. At that time, a grand prisoner offering ceremony would be held, and the people in the city should watch the embarrassment of the Western Turkic Khan and more than [-] prisoners, and show him the emperor of the Sui Dynasty. prestige.

Cui Che gave him face, and Yang Jian loved him even more, and even loved him. When Cui Che's son, Bodhisattva Nu, played with Yang Guang's son, Yang Zhao, he was reprimanded by that little adult, Yang Zhao.

As Cui Jishu's great-grandson, how can a Bodhisattva slave not be used to him, he punched Yang Zhaowu's eyes black.

When Yang Lihua learned of this, she hurriedly brought a Bodhisattva slave like Yang Jian to plead guilty. Yang Jian even smiled nonchalantly and said:

"His father once beat Guang'er, and the Bodhisattva slave punched Zhao'er again. This is a family friend."

Yang Zhao, who was on the sidelines, was stunned. It turns out that there is such a meaning of family friendship, but this is the first time he has heard that his father was beaten by his uncle.

Even Dugu Jialuo didn't take the fight between his grandson and grandson to heart. Instead, he praised Yang Lihua for his good vision and picked a good husband-in-law like Cui Che.

Although it was Yang Jian who bestowed the marriage, everyone knew that it was Yang Lihua who chose her son-in-law.

Since Xiao Jue will be mourning for his father for three years, Yang Awu, who is still widowed at home, has mixed feelings when he hears about Cui Che's current situation:

"It's me, it's me first, obviously I'm the first to meet him, whether my parents promised to marry me, or agree to this marriage. '

Seeing the occasional gathering of the sisters, when the three sisters mentioned the eldest brother-in-law, the corner of the eldest sister's mouth raised inadvertently, and the happy and complacent look made Yang Ah Wu feel even more uncomfortable.

Xiao Ju, who was once barely able to see through his eyes, compared him with his brother-in-law Cui Che from the bottom of his heart, but he didn't want to marry no matter what.

Although Yang Lihua was proud of Cui Che's achievements, she was also worried about his expedition to Dujin Mountain. There was no news in the vast desert, so how could she be relieved.

It wasn't just Yang Lihua who was worried, everyone in the East Palace was also worried about Cui Che.

It's not that they never thought of wooing Cui Che, but Cui Che and Yang Guang were friendly since they were young. Before Yang Yong went out to Luoyang, Cui Che returned to Beijing to report on his work, and even deliberately avoided Luoyang on the way home.

But Yang Yong and his group are not Yang Guang and Yang Su after all, and it is not that no one wants to take the opportunity to slander, but Gao Jiong, Yang Yong's most important supporter, opposes this approach.

It can be said that Gao Jiong worked hard for the Sui Dynasty. He clearly distinguished between public and private, and knew the importance of the famous Cui Che guarding the northern border against the background of defending from the north and attacking from the south.

Secondly, he also understood that with Yang Lihua around, it would be very difficult for Dong Gong to bring down Cui Che.

Empress Dugu Jialuo's dislike for the Eastern Palace is increasingly revealed. Once the Eastern Palace attacks Cui Che, with the protection of Dugu Jialuo and Yang Lihua's mother and daughter, not only will Cui Che not be hurt in the slightest, but she will suffer.

Gao Jiong was originally a retainer of the Dugu Clan. He changed his surname to the Dugu Clan following his father.

In fact, after Dugu Jialuo died, Yang Jian could only listen to the comfort of Yang Lihua, the eldest daughter.

On October 587, the seventh year of Kaihuang (23), there was heavy snow in Guanzhong, but the cold climate could not reduce the enthusiasm of the people in Daxing.

They all watched the grand captive offering ceremony, and the Western Turkic Apo Khan Daluo was escorted to Beijing with more than [-] captured Turkic soldiers.

When did the people of Daxing see such a large-scale sacrifice of prisoners? In the voice of the people, Apo Khan Daluobian and many important officials of the Western Turks were sent to the Taimiao to pay homage to the Taizu of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wuyuan Yang Zhong.

The guests of the four barbarians were also invited by Yang Jian to watch the ceremony.

Not only did Yang Jian show off in front of the barbarians and the common people, but he was also able to praise his meritorious service in the temple of his deceased father.

Afterwards, he was already planning to confer on Cui Che the Kingdom of Shangzhu and become the Duke of the State, just waiting for him to return triumphantly from Dujin Mountain.

Yang Jian didn't know why he had so much confidence in Cui Che's expedition to Dujin Mountain. Perhaps it was because Cui Che had never let him down in all these years, and everything was done properly.

Apo Khan Daluo was taken as a prisoner, but he didn't suffer too much humiliation.

The accompanying Eastern Turkic envoys asked Yang Jian to kill Daluobian, but Yang Jian had other plans. He called important officials to discuss how to deal with Daluobian.

Gong Xie of Le'an believed that he should be executed, but Changsun Sheng opposed it.

Changsun Sheng believed that the crime of Apo Khan Daluobian was the murder of brothers among the Turks, and it was not against the Sui Dynasty. It would be better to pardon Daluobian, return the Western Turkic captives that should belong to the Sui Dynasty, and preserve his country.

At the same time, he also informed Yang Jian that before leaving, Cui Che also agreed with this proposal. The reason why he went out of the fortress was to prevent the East Turks and Kumoxi from monopolizing the women and children of the West Turks, so that they could become big.

Gao Jiong's second opinion also made Yang Jian determined to treat Apo Khan with courtesy, and when Cui Che returned to his teacher, he would give him captives, women and children, so as to contain the Eastern Turks and let the Turks continue to immerse themselves in internal conflicts.

Yang Jian knew better than anyone else that Luohou, the East Turkic Mohe Khan who is extremely docile today, will not continue to be so obedient in the future.

Unsurprisingly, after the Western Expedition, the Western Turks who suffered the catastrophe will become domestic dogs, and the re-emerged Eastern Turks may show their wolf nature.

But history is never short of surprises.
