Chapter 310: Expedition

Swords and guns are like a forest, flags are like clouds, west of Baqiao, 10,000 heavily armed Shence troops are ready to go, and to the east of Baqiao, a grand ceremony is also being held.

Build a high platform, set up an altar, and the emperor comes in person, this is a grand scene that has not been seen in Chang'an for many years.

For more than ten years, the Jiedu has divided and ruled the region, the imperial court has become weaker and weaker, and the emperor's edict is difficult to get out of the Guandong Heluo, let alone send a large army to the expedition, no Jiezhen does not want the emperor's pro-army to appear on his own territory, and compared to the army of those Jiezhen, the Shence army directly under the imperial court is indeed weaker.

The turmoil that swept the country more than ten years ago almost swept away the elite of the imperial court, and after the war, the rebuilt Central Forbidden Army, both in terms of quality and faith, was no longer the same as the previous army. Quite a few festivals have not taken them into account at all.

What's more, they themselves have no energy.

This time Li Ze entered the court, and the imperial court could finally stretch out his hand justifiably, which was a strong political signal, showing to all the festivals and towns in the world that the Chang'an imperial court still had extremely strong power.

Gao Biao, Li Ze's allegiance, for the imperial court is of great significance, whether it is Gao Biao or Li Ze after the town, they all hold a huge territory and a brave army in their hands, these two towns and the imperial court alliance, for the entire northern land of all the festival towns, is a huge and terrible pressure.

How could the emperor easily let go of such a matter of reviving the prestige of the imperial court? Naturally, it is necessary to make a big show for Li Ze and make a strong march for this god army.

Worshipping heaven and earth, giving festivals and battles, the emperor raised his hand to the heavily armed Li Ze.

"The rebellion in the north will be handed over to the general, and I hope to live up to my expectations and return as soon as possible." Li Yan is colorful.

Li Ze bowed, raised his hands above his head, and took the big seal of the marching chief from Li Yan's hand, and his heart was full of joy. After more than a month in Chang'an, many parties lobbied, and bribed gifts were sent out one car after another, and the biggest purpose was to get this big seal of the marching chief.

With this thing, he has the power to dominate the entire Beidi Festival Town in name, and theoretically speaking, even Gao Yu has to obey his orders. Of course, Li Ze would not give orders to Gao Biao like this, and for a character like Gao Biao, of course, he had to be respectful. But for others, you don't have to be too polite.

"Your Majesty rest assured, at least three years, at most five years, the end will return to the Tang Dynasty a Haiyan River in the north, when the time comes, Your Majesty is the head, and the ministers are willing to be minions to create a prosperous Tang Dynasty." The golden seal of the head of the military university, Li Zelang said loudly.

His voice was very loud, not only for the emperor, but also for many well-meaning people present.

This is a heart booster for the emperor, and it is also a devastating agent for those who have a heart. To what extent it will ferment, Li Ze at this time is not clear.

But in any case, Li Yan is still extremely happy about Li Ze's high-profile political statement, because General Li gave him a clear time frame, within three or five years, when the northern land is pacified, the general's soldiers and horses and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court will form a two-sided attack, and those unruly other festivals and towns, if they dare to disobey, then they will naturally be annihilated by a large army.

At that time, it was the time when Li Ze's eight strategies for the Xingtang Dynasty really began to be implemented.

Li Ze held a knife in one hand and held the golden seal of the head of the military in the other, and stepped down with his head held high.

Xue Ping, who was also dressed in armor, turned over and got on his horse, and under the banner of the order, the front army of the Shence Army west of Baqiao began to pull out.

The drums rumbled, the horns sounded, and on the high platform, the emperor stood solemnly, overlooking the Shence army west of the Baqiao one after another.

Offstage, the court musicians played the formation car hard, and hundreds of court maiko danced in costumes, although they were women, but they were dressed in armor, and their guns and knives were fighting, which was a unique scene.

On both sides of the river, thousands of people gathered here, singing to the broken array of Lego, the sound shook the world.

Such a scene has not appeared for many years, whether it is Li Yan or the civil and military officials, they are all in tears, even Li Ze was greatly shocked, like his subordinate Khitan Yeluqi, who was even more speechless at this time.

Handing over the big seal in his hand and the festival battle and other things to Li Yu, Li Ze hurried a few steps, and on both sides of the road, a carriage stopped quietly.

"Mother, son is gone." In front of the carriage, Li Ze knelt on his knees and kowtowed respectfully three times.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and the faces of Mrs. Wang and Liu Ruyan appeared in front of Li Ze.

"I'll go by myself, don't worry about me and wait!" Mrs. Wang forced a smile, in her life, almost all of her life was sending the boys in her family to go on the expedition, she used to send her father and brother, and now she sends her son.

"Husband go with peace of mind, I have me at home!" Liu Ruyan rolled up his sleeves, revealing the cloud knife given to him by Li Ze on his arm, Li Ze originally had two knives, one was the crane knife in the clouds, and the other was the dragon knife in the sea, after getting married, Li Ze gave the crane knife in the cloud to Liu Ruyan.

"Be careful, discuss with Mr. Gongsun if you have something." Li Ze admonished: "Don't make your own opinions. Mother will leave it to you. ”

Liu Ruyan nodded again and again.

After getting married, Li Ze finally knew what Liu Ruyan's skills were.

Anyway, Li Ze couldn't beat her by himself.

Li Ze was quite happy about this, he was not worried about the roar of the Hedong lion at home, but because of Liu Ruyan's skill, his somewhat apprehensive heart was a lot more stable.

At least when Chang'an is in chaos, Liu Ruyan's strange army may cause unexpected effects.

Standing up and looking at Gongsun Changming on the side of the carriage, Gongsun Changming smiled and arched his hand: "I wish the general to go, play triumphantly all the way, and return to Chang'an as soon as possible." ”

"Sir, rest assured, everything is under control." Li Ze smiled and said, "The matter in Beijing, please leave it to Mr." ”

Gongsun Changming nodded and said, "Don't worry, general. ”

Li Ze glanced back at the family members on the side again, Huo Ran turned his head and turned over on his horse.

With a bang, Chen Changping, who followed closely, unfurled his flag, and the two hundred relatives and guards who had been re-replenished gathered behind the banner from riding horses.

Originally, after the first battle of Mengjindu, Li Ze's one hundred and five relatives and guards were left with less than seventy people, and after arriving in Chang'an, many children of honors and nobles, as well as some of the sons of the generals who were originally meritorious families but have now declined and have a difficult life, also heard the voice and voted. These people have received extremely strict training since childhood, and even those who are so poor that they can't even eat have never pulled down these lessons, and in the eyes of these families, these family studies are their only chance to revive the lintel.

Li Ze's arrival made them see the opportunity to make contributions.

After a strict selection, more than 100 of these meritorious family disciples were included in the righteous congregation, and Li Ze was not only interested in their already excellent skills, but also in their family prestige. The declining home of merit, that is also the house of merit. You can fight for him now, you can make up a faΓ§ade for him in the future, and when he returns to Chang'an City one day, these people can be his forerunner again.

There are still 3,000 nails left in the broken ship!

Li Zelema turned around and headed towards the high platform, where Emperor Li Yan was still looking forward to it.

The horse drove forward slowly, and two hundred yi were separated from each side.

Li Ze arched his hand towards the high platform, and on the high platform, Li Yan stood solemnly.

To everyone's surprise, Li Ze suddenly burst into high spirits.

His voice was not very beautiful, and it was completely incomparable to the musicians in the audience who were singing the breaking array music, but when he Li Ze began to sing, all the musicians and maiko stopped.

All of them are united, and the mountains can be shaken.

Only loyal and righteous, angry bullfighting.

The Lord will kiss me better than my parents.

Committing military law is not free.

The order is clear, and the reward and punishment letter is written.

Go to the water and fire, dare to stay late!

Li Ze sang a song, two hundred nominal servants also sang at the same time, in the midst of the song, Li Zelema turned around, slowly moved forward, two hundred righteous followers, riding on the bridge.

The sound of horses' hooves, the singing fades away.

Under the high platform, the music started again, and the musicians once again played the instruments in their hands, but this time, it was no longer the breaking array music, but the triumphant song sung by Gao Li Ze, while playing the instruments, while singing loudly, hundreds of maiko also danced a new dance under the leadership of the dancer.

I have to say that these people's business skills are really good, this triumphant song is the first time Li Ze sang it today, these people just listened to it once, and they can copy it completely, and the combination of various musical instruments is wonderful, and the chorus of hundreds of people is skillful, which is much better than Li Ze and his guards.

Of course, the impassioned iron-blooded aura of Li Ze and his two hundred guards is not something that these musicians can imitate.

It can only be said that each has its own strengths.

When he came, he only had more than 100 guards and dozens of carriages, but when he returned, he led tens of thousands of troops, countless baggage, and of course, countless privileges from the imperial court.

During the trip to Chang'an, Li Ze can be said to have made a lot of money.

He got everything he wanted, and then, it's up to him to run his own business.

Just when Li Ze led the army to march towards Wuwei, Lu Longzhi Youzhou City, a carriage also creaked into the city gate, and the soldiers guarding the city saw a waist card shown by the old man driving on the carriage, and bent down in unison and saluted the carriage.

Inside the carriage, there was a slight coughing sound.

The carriage drove into the city gate, and the curtain was lifted to reveal Fei Zhong's somewhat pale face, with a long-lost smile on his face.

"It's finally back." He muttered.
