Kent Mountain in later generations, at the foot of the mountain, Tian Meng's large army has arrived here. This time, there were more than 1,700 people accompanying Tian Meng, not counting the accompanying guards.
The number of soldiers who followed them was about fifteen thousand. These soldiers are different from the current army soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, but are generally older veterans. To be precise, they belong to the security army.
"Governor Tian, ahead is the ancient ruins we are looking for. This place has been destroyed before, and we found this location from some books passed down by some Turkic nobles." A guard came over and said seriously.
"That's right, let's go over and have a look." Tian Meng was somewhat excited. This place was not any other place, but the place where the former Han general, Hussar general, and champion Hou Huo went to stay in Xu.
Feng Langjuxu is the highest honor in the minds of many generals, and now, this mountain is already within the territory of the Tang Dynasty!
"For the record, all official records in the future will officially change the name of this mountain to Langjuxu Mountain." Tian Meng said.
"yes!"
The height of this mountain is still very tall. It is said that it is a holy mountain in the eyes of the surrounding Turkic herdsmen. But it doesn't matter, this place now belongs to the territory of the Tang Dynasty. In the future, this place will be Langjuxu Mountain.
They did not need to climb the main peak of Langjuxu Mountain, but a small independent peak next to Langjuxu Mountain. It was not steep, but because it was relatively independent from the main mountain range, after climbing it, It is surrounded by grassland. When you stand on its peak and worship in the direction of Chang'an, behind this small mountain peak is the tall Langjuxu Mountain.
There is also a lake formed by a river between it and the main mountain range of Langjuxu Mountain. Although the area is not too large, the water source is also very clear.
On the top of the mountain, you can vaguely see the traces left by the sacrifices, and on a huge stone next to it, there are sacrificial inscriptions that were once engraved here.
But the sacrificial inscriptions had been destroyed long ago, and it was unclear what was written on them. Only the traces of countless knives and stone chisels remained. Obviously this place has been destroyed by a large number of Turks or others.
After hundreds of years, these traces have become very blurred. Perhaps in a few hundred years, the traces here will no longer disappear. At that time, the place where the former champion Hou Fenglang lived in Xu may become a historical record. The legend among them.
Therefore, our Highness is still the best! I am confident that this place will become the territory of Datang forever! I have to protect the borders of the Tang Dynasty for His Highness, His Majesty, and for the Tang Dynasty!
Tian Meng made a decision in his heart.
"Bring the tribute, and I'll wait for the sacrifice. Don't let the situation here spread out for now. Then I will ask His Highness for instructions later and re-engrave the sacrificial inscription on the stone here." Tian Meng thought for a while and said.
He has followed His Highness for so many years, and his thoughts on His Highness are very clear. His Highness attaches great importance to our traditional Chinese culture, and His Highness must reply to these allusions.
When the time comes, just find some great scholars and engrave them on it according to the inscriptions on building an altar to worship Heaven in the Han Dynasty, and then combine it with the achievements of the champion Hou to tell Yu Heaven.
In addition to the inscriptions engraved here, the altar cast must also be restored. The champion of this mountain peak also chose it very cleverly. The surrounding environment is very good, and there is quite a kingly atmosphere on this grassland.
When the time comes, this place will also be enclosed and protected. When the Tang Dynasty becomes stronger in the future and the border grasslands are completely stabilized, there may be many literati coming here here.
Soon, a sheep was carried up the mountain. Tian Meng put the sheep on the altar, and then began to offer sacrifices to the heaven and earth. He informed His Majesty in turn that he had arrived here and began to take over the management of the entire Xueyantuo and all the grasslands in the north!
After the sacrifice to heaven and earth was over, Tian Meng went down the mountain again. Xue Yantuo's royal court was near Langjuxu Mountain. This place has always been important to the nomads. In addition to the mountains and sufficient water sources, it is the mountain here. The terrain is also good for building the royal court here.
If there is an enemy attack or something unexpected happens, the royal court can retreat into the mountains at any time, giving it more room to maneuver with the enemy.
However, the current Tang Dynasty did not come here to fight, so the main role of this mountain was naturally gone.
But the grassland people have always chosen to station the royal court here, which proves that there must be other advantages here, such as precipitation, water sources, environment, etc.
Coming down from Langjuxu Mountain, Tian Meng quickly arrived at the Turkic Royal Court and met Xue Yantuo Khan and Yishu Yinan who had completed all the tasks.
"Yi Shu Yi Nan takes the edict." The first time he saw the other party, Tian Meng took out the imperial edict from his body.
Zhenzhu Khan Yi Shiyinan immediately knelt down.
"My disciples: Today there is Xue Yantuo Khan, a man who has lost his country. He has a far-sighted vision, a broad mind, and a broad mind for the world.

Tian Meng finished reading a complete imperial edict of the Tang Dynasty, and after Yi Shuyi Nan thanked him, Tian Meng handed the edict to him.
"Congratulations, Duke of Shu." Tian Meng smiled and said to the other party, cupping his hands.
"Governor Tian, you are so polite. In the future, Hanhai Prefecture will be handed over to Governor Tian, and the people on this grassland will also be handed over to Governor Tian. I, Yishu Yinan, really don't have much ability. I hope that in the future, Hanhai Prefecture will be handed over to Governor Tian." All herdsmen can live a good life." Yishu Yinan said happily.
It is now the end of June, and the weather on the grassland is already very hot. Although the wind makes people feel nothing, the sun on the grassland is very powerful when the weather is clear.
"Please rest assured, Duke of Shu. With me here, and with the blessings of His Highness and Your Majesty, the herdsmen of Hanhai Prefecture will definitely live a good life!" Tian Meng said seriously.
