Chapter 537 Victory News

"Quickly send some troops to clean up the battlefield and guard the prisoners, and the rest of you follow me to chase the enemy. We must not let them get away!" Pei Xingjian immediately led the army to chase the fleeing Turks after giving the order.

The personnel in charge of logistics in the Tang army began to clean up the battlefield, dig pits to bury the dead, treat the wounded, etc.

"Khan! The Tang army is catching up! What should we do now?" Ashinadewenfu only cared about his own retreat, leaving Ashinadeshi and some of his subordinates to escape.

"Don't panic, the Tang army is coming, we can still surrender, the Tang army treats the prisoners well and will not embarrass us." Ashinadeshi said to his subordinates.

After running such a long way, they were already exhausted. Moreover, the Tang army was chasing them closely.

Since they could not defeat the Tang army, they could only choose to surrender. Would the Tang Dynasty treat them badly?

Ashina Nishufu's subordinates had other ideas in their minds at this time. If they surrendered like this, they would be captives of the Tang army and would definitely not be taken seriously.

It might even cause dissatisfaction from the Tang army. In order to be taken seriously and gain more benefits after surrendering, they decided to kill Ashina Nishufu and surrender to the Tang army with his head.

Even if they surrendered voluntarily, they still needed to show their sincerity.

So, they told Ashina Nishufu their ideas, and Ashina Nishufu thought they made sense.

"You are right! But, we are in a desperate situation now, with nothing on us. What should we take to the Tang army to show our sincerity?" Ashina Nishufu said in embarrassment. "

Khan, you have something that can be used, and we have come to ask you for it." The subordinate said.

"I don't know what it is, but you can take whatever I have." Ashina Nishufu was overjoyed after hearing this.

He didn't expect that he actually had something useful on him, but how could he not know?

"This thing is the head of the Khan, and we have come to ask you for it and present it to the Tang army to show our sincerity." The subordinate said.

"What? You...ah..." Ashina Nishufu was horrified after hearing this. Before he could finish his words, he was stabbed to death by his subordinates. He only had time to let out a scream.

"Don't waste time! Cut off the Khan's head quickly so that you can surrender to the Tang army commander." One person said.

The subordinates chopped off Ashina Nishufu's head with their knives, threw their Khan's body away casually, and tore a piece of cloth from Ashina Nishufu's body, wrapped his head, and surrendered to the Tang army.

Li Siwen met the subordinates of the Eastern Turkic Khan who came to surrender on the way of pursuit.

"You are so crazy that you even killed your Khan. You must be vicious and evil. You can't be spared." Li Siwen said, holding his sword.

The Tang army surrounded them. As long as Li Siwen gave the order, they would rush forward and kill them all.

Nishufu's subordinates were trembling with fear. One of them stood up. He was a burly man with a full beard and a dozen braids on his head.

"General! You can't wrongly accuse us. We are loyal to the Tang Dynasty. Killing Ashina Nishufu was a last resort." The man said.

"What's your name? Tell me how I wrongly accuse you!" Li Siwen said.

"My name is Toraji. Ashina Nishufu is a puppet Khan established by Ashidewenfuhe Fengzhi. Although he is a puppet Khan, he is thinking of betraying the Tang Dynasty."

"We have tried to dissuade him many times, but he didn't listen. He even wanted to kill us. We had no choice but to kill him and bring his head to you, General."

"Our loyalty to the Tang Dynasty is witnessed by the heaven and earth, and the sun and the moon can testify to it!" Toraji saluted.

"Yes! General, we are loyal to the Tang Dynasty. We will not let anyone who dares to be an enemy of the Tang Dynasty go, even if they are our Khans." The other Turks said.

"Alright! Stop talking nonsense. I still have to chase Ashidewenfu and the Turkic army, bring them back to the main camp, and hand them over to the general manager for disposal." Li Siwen waved his hand impatiently.

He was now concentrating on chasing the enemy, so he didn't have the time to care whether what they said was true or false.

As long as these guys surrendered, the rest would be left to Pei Xingjian to deal with.

The Tang army soldiers separated several people and escorted them all back to the main camp to wait for disposal, while Li Siwen continued to pursue with his troops.

After taking these submissive subordinates to see Pei Xingjian, Pei Xingjian settled them down and wrote a victory report on the situation of suppressing the rebellion in Mo Nan.

Send someone to rush the message back to Chang'an at 800 km speed, waiting for the emperor's next instruction.

...

Chang'an City is still prosperous. The Zhuque Street is crowded with people and cars. Merchants from all over the country flock to the East and West Markets to sell the goods they brought.

Pedestrians on the street walk between the various squares. Some go to visit relatives and friends, while others go to temples to worship.

"Great victory in Mo Nan! Great victory in Mo Nan!" At this time, a fast horse galloped through the bustling streets, and the people on horseback shouted loudly.

Pedestrians on the street immediately dispersed to both sides of the street to let the messenger pass quickly.

The messenger came to the front of the Daming Palace without any hindrance and stopped in front of the Danfeng Gate. The imperial soldiers immediately stepped forward and grabbed the reins of the horse's head. The messenger turned over and dismounted, taking off the bamboo tube on his back.

"Great victory in Mo Nan! Report to Your Majesty!" The messenger handed the bamboo tube to the imperial guards.

The imperial guards did not dare to neglect it. They took the bamboo tube and turned around and ran to the Daming Palace. After passing through layers of delivery, the news

of the great victory in Mo Nan was finally delivered to the emperor. "Everyone! Great victory in Mo Nan!" Wang Quan said excitedly, and handed the news of the great victory in Mo Nan to Li Chengqian.

He knew that Li Chengqian had been worried about the rebellion in Mo Nan recently, and he would mention it at least seven or eight times a day.

Wang Quan understood that Li Chengqian had always been worried about Pei Xingjian, whether he would follow in Xiao Siye's footsteps. Now, good news finally came!

Pei Xingjian finally did not disappoint the emperor's expectations of him.

"Hahaha... Good! Good! Good!" Li Chengqian hurriedly opened the victory report and read it, then he burst into laughter and said three "good" words in a row, which was enough to prove how excited he was at the moment.

"Father! Did Pei Xingjian completely suppress the Eastern Turkic rebellion?" asked the crown prince Li Jue on the side.

"The Eastern Turkic rebellion has been suppressed, but there are still some remnants that have not been eliminated."

"The Ashidewenfu tribe that rebelled against the Tang Dynasty escaped, and the chieftain of the Fengzhi tribe, Fengzhi, was captured alive and became a captive of the Tang Dynasty. The remnants of the Fengzhi tribe escaped."

"The Eastern Turkic Khan Ashina Nishubuze was killed by his subordinates, and his head was taken to surrender to the Tang Dynasty."

"Although the Eastern Turks were not completely wiped out, it was still a great victory." Li Chengqian said.
