Chapter 103: Point General
The light rain walked all the way down, and before it reached the outside of the city, the rain became thicker again, drifting in diagonally, hitting the people's faces, and feeling painful. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Green hats, green clothes, slanting wind and drizzle do not need to return." Shen Qiwu opened the curtain and looked at the mountains and rivers in the distance, in the drizzle, it looked like a good ink splash landscape painting, she shook her head and sighed: "It's wind and rain again, today's departure day, I'm afraid that the choice is not very good." ”
Zhao Mu sat on the side and hummed: "This is the Qintian supervision, I heard that the confused old men there watched the stars at night, and speculated on the moon, so they chose today's auspicious day of the zodiac." Hmph, let me see, this is clearly the silver of the earth. ”
Shen Qiwu chuckled a few times and did not answer. When we arrived at the camp in the north of the city, the sky was still gloomy, and only a trace of dawn was revealed on the side, but the torch was burning and the lights were bright in the camp, and there was a barracks in the big city, which was illuminated as day.
"Your Majesty, Niangniang." At the gate of the camp, Zhenyuan Marquis Li Ji led a group of soldiers in a row, all the soldiers were neatly armoured, and when they saw the arrival of His Majesty's carriage, they hurriedly rushed over with surprise.
Zhao Mu lifted the curtain and got out of the car, nodded at everyone and said, "Everyone is here." Look at you, I'm afraid I won't come, I won't be a deserter! ”
Several generals laughed when they heard this, seeing that Zhao Mu's armor was neat, although his face was a little cold, he looked heroic. Zhenyuan Marquis Li stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, in fact, you don't need to go to the battlefield in person, as long as the front-line soldiers have you in charge, they will definitely be able to fight bravely to kill the enemy." ”
Zhao Mu nodded, after all, he was the emperor after all, and he had never been on the battlefield at all, how could he really go on the battlefield to kill the enemy.
"Don't worry, I will personally beat the drums for the soldiers to help the battle, and I will definitely drive the Jin Kingdom out of Helan Mountain. When winter comes, you can drink with the soldiers. ”
Zhenyuan Marquis Li was relieved at this time, if something happened to the emperor, he and his old father would become the sinners of the Great Zhou through the ages. The charge was too big for him to afford.
As the drizzle continued to rain and the sky gradually brightened, a huge point general platform with a height of three zhang and a length and width of about 20 zhang was built directly north of the exercise ground, and a huge log was erected on the point general platform. The golden dragon flag is flying, the handsome flag is fluttering, the lewd rain is falling, and the atmosphere is solemn.
On both sides of the platform, there is a person who comes to the highland cowhide drum, and thousands of wooden stakes are erected in front of it, and countless cow chongs are tied, which are specially used for sacrificial flags.
Zhao Mu's armor was neat, his expression was solemn, and the drizzle hit his face, but he didn't feel anything.
"Your Majesty, the auspicious time has arrived!" Supervisor Qin Tian let out a long shout, and Zhao Mu nodded to Zhenyuan Marquis Li Yi.
As the commander of this royal expedition, Li Ju stepped forward, wearing black iron heavy armor in the wind and rain looking extremely desolate and tragic, his eyes swept in all directions, and he said in a long voice: "Break the Jin Army, defend my Great Zhou." Where are the boys--drumming, ordering-"
"Drumming, soldiers—"
"Drumming, soldiers—"
The order was passed down from north to south, layer by layer, and the sound of singing was endless.
"Knock-knock", the dull and loud sound of drums, piercing the silence of the sky, amazes the sleeping birds in the forest. The four camps immediately sounded, the sound of horns, horses' hooves, footsteps, the grinding of armor, and the clash of swords and guns. It is like heavy trees, hitting the earth, and the sound is huge.
The army in the camp has long been ready to go. Just two drums have been heard, and the three armies have already been assembled. As far as the eye can see, the black and oppressive area on the exercise ground is full of human heads.
The army of this imperial expedition was about 50,000, all of them with bright armor, solemn faces, swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and a cold light. In the middle are thousands of elite soldiers, archers, and crossbowmen of the Divine Machine Battalion, and there are hundreds of artillery pieces that have been renewed, and the barrels of the black yo yo are pointing straight to the sky. The cavalry battalion on the right-hand side, the war horses entered, the knights entered the ranks, and the horsemen spears in their hands flashed with a cold cold light, which was daunting. Although there were many soldiers and generals, there was no sound on the entire exercise ground, and there was no sound of neighing of the war horses. The soldiers trained by Li Yang's father and son are indeed worthy of their reputation.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu read out the edict of sending troops, bitterly showing the disaster of the Jin Kingdom, and it was the ambition of the wolf, in a vain attempt to annex the rivers and mountains. Killing countless people of the Great Zhou, coveting the splendid scenery of the Great Zhou, and making the heavens angry and resentful, His Majesty is now driving the expedition in person, and the male soldiers set off, and they will defeat the Jin State, recover the border passes, and raise the power of the Great Zhou Tianwei.
I don't know who drafted this edict, and it's obscure. Shen Qiwu couldn't hold on after listening to it halfway, and looked down.
"Kill the golden dog and defend my big Zhou!" Tens of thousands of troops gathered into an endless ocean, all of them with red faces and swords and guns raised high. They all shouted in unison, and the monstrous heat wave, even the continuous drizzle, seemed to be covered.
Zhao Mu led Shen Qiwu to the general platform, facing the gaze of tens of thousands of troops.
"Those who enter are rewarded, and those who retreat are killed. Today, I went into battle with all the soldiers to kill the enemy, and a thousand words were turned into one sentence - if I don't break the Jin Kingdom, I won't return! I am here today, and I swear to heaven that I will drink the wine of triumph with thousands of great Zhou Erlang! Dry-"
Zhao Mu drank the big bowl of spirits, and then dropped the sea bowl heavily. Tens of thousands of soldiers held high the sea bowl at the same time, and drank the liquor together. The sound of porcelain bowls breaking came and went, endlessly.
"Sacrifice Flag-" Li Ju let out a long shout, and thousands of knights jumped out at the same time, people and horses roared, and swords, guns, soldiers and horses rattled.
"Kill--" More than 1,000 cavalrymen galloped wildly, quickly marched to the bottom of the platform, and saw the cattle tied to the altar, their hands raised and fell, and their movements were neat like a cold light. The heads of thousands of livestock were cut off at the same time. Blood was spilled all over the school grounds. The knights held aloft the head of the bloody forest and rushed back, the bloody light arousing the murderous aura of the soldiers.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Tens of thousands of people raised their swords and shouted in unison, and the momentum reached to the sky, earth-shattering. The soldiers' eyes were red, their blood was surging, and their thick voices shook Shen Qiwu's eardrums.
Li Ju's hair fluttered in the sporadic light rain, and he stood against the wind, and the long sword in his hand swung forward violently, "Sons, let's go-"
The beating of war drums was like spring thunder striking on everyone's hearts. Tens of thousands of troops, like long snakes lined up, braved the rain and drove straight to the north, and the golden dragon flag fluttering high seemed to be the mood of every soldier who went out, excited and tragic.
Thousands of people in the capital gathered around both sides of the road, running with the team, and the soldiers who could not be seen at a glance formed a huge long dragon with the people on both sides.
This time, I'm afraid it's life and death. (To be continued.) )
