Central Plains Chapter 58 The Heavenly Army Sets Out
In the early dynasty today, Emperor Liu Jing was never serious, and the hundred officials were silent, all of them stood solemnly, and only the voices of the internal officials resounded in the hall.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: The border army of the Dawu Dynasty has repeatedly entered my territory, violated my border, invaded my property, and its crime is intolerable. Chin this".
"On the occasion of the rise of Daxing, I hope that the officials of all ministries will not drag me and drag Daxing's hind legs, otherwise I will not be spared. In addition, this expedition, all the procedures are simple, if the virtuous king has nothing else to do, he can pack up and set off, the million army has already gathered in the south, just waiting for you" Liu Jing waited for the internal official to announce the holy decree, first sharply admonished the civil and military officials, and then explained to Li Mang.
"Yes" Li Mang didn't say much, nodded and responded.
Liu Jing also nodded, what the two of them should have said had already been said in advance, and the early dynasty was just a procedure, and then Liu Jing looked at the internal official and signaled him to retreat.
"If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat..."
......
Li Mang hurried back to the Xianwang Mansion after leaving the court, changed his official uniform, and went out in a white robe at will.
Outside the door, the thirteen girls actually waited in the courtyard early, and when they saw Li Mang coming out, they all knelt on the ground and shouted: "Lord, is it okay to bring slaves and maids and others?
"Don't mess around, I'm going to fight and not to play in the mountains and rivers, what's more, how can there be a woman in the army? Stay at home obediently and take care of the palace for me" Li Mang glanced at them helplessly, and then said very seriously.
"Lord Wang, even if you don't let the slaves and maids go, the slaves and maids will definitely follow quietly, so you agree, can't the slaves and maids and others disguise themselves?" Yi Yi pleaded again.
"That's it, that's it, the slave and maid are going to go, and the prince can't stop it, hum" That Yimo is the smallest and the most naughty, relying on the connivance of daily mang, and now he has completely let go of his nature.
"Lord Wang..."
"Lord Wang, just let us go..."
......
For a while, all the women begged, and Li Mang had a headache, so he had to respond, and the women were indeed cultivators, not only would they not add to the chaos, but they might be of great use.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and get a suit of armor to put on, and then come back here"
"Yes, Lord Xie... Hee-hee"
The women responded happily, then turned around and ran, hurrying to clean up. In fact, the women who should be brought and those who should not be brought have already packed up, and even the armor is ready, thinking that they have already planned it, but Li Mang does not agree today, and the women will probably follow quietly.
After a short time, the women returned, all dressed in silver placket armor, carrying long swords, and carrying two packages crossed on their backs, but they looked nondescript no matter how you looked at them, because their stature was too thin.
Li Mang also shook his head helplessly, and then stopped speaking, and walked out with a greeting, and the women hurriedly followed, but Li Mang didn't find that there was somehow one more person in the team when he went out, and that person was particularly obvious among the women, because his height was too much higher than that of the women.
In the camp of the Heavenly Army, the army has already been assembled and ready for battle, and the temporary transfer of 10,000 internal guards has also been in place, originally they were the most elite troops in Daxing, but now they are only responsible for escorting the logistics and supplies of the Heavenly Army. But they didn't have any complaints, they seemed to be quite excited, when they looked at the Heavenly Army array, their eyes were full of envy and admiration, it can be seen that the reputation of the Heavenly Army has already spread within the Daxing Army.
When Li Mang arrived, Shi Peng, Bai Qiu and Sanbao took the initiative to meet him, and gave a general introduction to the situation while walking, Li Mang nodded, did not speak, and went straight to the rostrum, looking at the ten thousand young and strong men below, and his heart suddenly swelled with infinite pride, and at the same time, there was pride and pride, because this army was completely built by himself.
"If you don't say anything superfluous, the time to test your strength has finally arrived. This king promises, but the one who survives this war will be my own brother from now on, and if any of you dies in battle, your parents will be my parents, and your brothers will be my brothers, go on the march, brothers!"
"Roar... Roar... Roar..."
The spear was raised to the sky, and 10,000 people shouted three times loudly, expressing their hearts, and then under the command of Shi Canopy and Bai Qiu, the army crossed their horses and left the camp in an orderly manner.
Li Mang glanced at the only remaining three treasures and the women beside him, and was about to raise his hand to set off, when he suddenly noticed a figure.
"Fenghua?"
"Oops, you've found out..."Fenghua lowered his head and said embarrassedly.
"Why did you come along? Does your imperial brother know? Aren't you fooling around?" Li Mang asked three times in a row, but Feng Hua was angry.
"Can't my eldest princess be her own master? I followed, what's the matter, I see who dares to say anything!"
"Uh... Does your imperial brother know?" Li Mang suddenly froze and asked weakly.
"Know," Fenghua said angrily.
"Okay, then let's follow, but you are not allowed to leave my sight, do you hear?" said Li Mang helplessly.
"Hmm..."Fenghua heard the concern in Li Mang's words, and his heart was naturally sweet, and he nodded obediently in response.
Li Mang no longer looked at Fenghua, but turned his head to the three treasures and the women and said: "You will always follow me on this expedition, and be my personal soldier for the time being, and the other three treasures, you are wronged, and you will be a herald for the master, and when you go to the battlefield, the teacher will not forget you."
"Yes..."
"Let's go" Li Mang no longer looked at everyone, swept off the rostrum and stepped on his white horse, at this time the white horse was also wearing horse armor, it was really powerful, I am afraid that no horse in the world can compete with it.
20,000 people rushed out and headed towards the south, no one ever noticed that on the top of the gate of the imperial capital, Liu Jing and hundreds of officials were watching them leave, in addition to excitement and a little worry in their eyes, I don't know whether they were worried about Fenghua or worried about this war.
......
The heavenly army passed, all the way smoothly, the city lords who passed through the city cooperated to the extreme, not only opened the city gates, but also evacuated the people in advance, and even many city lords who would come also sent their "hearts", Li Mang naturally did not refuse to come, whether it was food or money, they all accepted, they were not used, and they were all distributed to the soldiers of the heavenly army and the internal guard army.
It took about more than ten days of hard work before the Heavenly Army could come to the southern border, at this time the million army had already been assembled, camped for a long time, and was training separately, outside the barracks, only a few generals were waiting for the great driver.
Li Mang took the lead, and the white robe that was incompatible with the army was particularly conspicuous, and several generals naturally saw it at a glance, and they all slapped their horses and stepped forward, and one of them saluted and shouted loudly.
"I've seen the prince, Liu Ming, the lowly and state captain, the 500,000 troops under his command are already in place, just waiting for you to come."
Li Mang nodded, glanced at him, wrote down the name deeply, and then spoke: "General Liu has worked hard, I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you a lot in the next days, and I hope we can get along well."
"Harmonious, harmonious, must be harmonious, haha..."Liu Ming nodded honestly.
At this time, another person also bowed and said: "Liu Lang, the military captain of the southern border, has seen the virtuous king."
Hearing this, Li Mang turned his head, looked at the white-faced general in front of him, and then said suspiciously: "Are you all surnamed Liu?
Liu Lang smiled awkwardly and said, "No, no, it's a coincidence."
"What's the matter, don't you even dare to call your brother-in-law?" Fenghua's voice suddenly sounded behind Li Mang, which startled everyone.
"Sister Fenghua, why are you here?" Liu Ming and Liu Lang were shocked in disbelief.
Fenghua ignored the two, patted the horse forward and was on par with Li Mang, and then said in his ear: "The two of them are my half-brothers, and the two are still brothers."
Li Mang was startled, couldn't believe it, and blurted out: "Then Liu Jing is relieved to let your two brothers lead millions of soldiers?"
As soon as these words came out, Fenghua, Liu Ming, and Liu Lang were shocked, and then Liu Ming spoke: "King Xian, don't speculate, in fact, my brother's mother was originally a palace maid, but... Hey, don't say it, anyway, my brother has been fostered under the queen mother's knee since he was a child, and he grew up with the royal brother day and night, and the loyalty of the two of us is something that heaven and earth can learn."
Li Mang also felt speechless, fortunately, everyone is a family, and there is nothing to taboo, and then Li Mang spoke: "Okay, anyway, a family, let's talk slowly, okay to go in first?"
"Haha, forgot... Forget, please, please" Liu Ming and Liu Lang glanced at each other, suddenly laughed heartily, and then invited Li Mang and a group of pro-troops into the camp, while the heavenly army was under the command of Shi Canopy and Bai Qiu, and chose a piece of land by itself and began to camp.
