Chapter 184: Chasing the North (33)
Jinyang, east of the river, stands at the throat of the place, and the prosperity of the rivers and mountains.
In the west of Jinyang City, according to Tianlong Mountain, there is a circumference of eight miles of Cangcheng, Cangcheng city wall, and Jinyang city wall is connected. Form a twin star fortress defense system.
And in the warehouse, there is the large-scale Jinyang Palace City. The weather is thousands, magnificent, the palace is continuous, and the courtyard is densely forested. The scale is almost comparable to that of the Abang Palace that was burned by Xiang Yu.
There is a Sui generation, and the financial and material resources spent on building Jinyang Palace are comparable to those such as digging the Grand Canal, which is comparable to the world's population.
On the heyday of the Great Sui, the Jinyang Palace was built in the west, the Grand Canal was dug in the south, and Goryeo was conquered with two million troops in the east. The power of the empire envelops the world. But it disappeared in a blink of an eye, and in this place east of the river, Jinyang Palace could no longer wait for the owner who ordered it to be built, but just stood here quietly.
At this moment, Jinyang Palace has faded into prosperity. Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Guo, who has always been low-key and has a simple style. did not live in Jinyang Palace as the world thought, enjoying all the glory and wealth. Instead, he still lives in the left-behind government office in Jinyang City.
And the goods stored in the Jinyang Palace have been turned into military funds. The palace lady selected in Jinyang City has been ordered by Li Yuan to be rationed to the officers and soldiers in the army, and the original courtyard and forest have all been destroyed and turned into a place for the army. The heroes of the north have come here to join the army in an endless stream, and it turns out that the three major Yingyang mansions in Hedong are expanding rapidly.
Jinyang Palace is isolated from the residents, there are many houses, and a huge school field can be leveled, which is naturally the place where the soldiers are stationed. Once besieged by a strong enemy, Li Yuan galloped into the Jinyang Palace, and he could mobilize a large army to defend it with danger. and Jinyang City support each other, hundreds of thousands of troops in ten years, may not be able to conquer this important town in the east of the river!
Jinyang Palace has changed like this, there are only people with eyes in the world, who doesn't know that Li Yuan, the Duke of Tang Guo, is about to raise troops and will participate in the battle of the world?
Outside the north of Cangcheng, a team of soldiers of the Eagle Yang Mansion of the Sixth Army with bright armor were on duty.
After Li Yuan officially launched the Sixth Army Eagle Yang Mansion, there was no doubt that it would become the Chinese army led by Li Yuan himself. Equipped with equipment, Li Yuan has always given them the best. Although the cold wind was howling in winter, none of these sergeants were on duty at the city gate, and they were neatly and solemnly patrolling the sentry posts.
This gate opens to the north, and the pedestrians are cut off in winter, and there is no one in the sky. But this vigilance has not been relaxed at all, and from time to time there are generals who come down to patrol.
The two major Yingyang Mansions in Mayi County are all border goblin soldiers who have fought old battles, and they have seen all kinds of battles, and they are not afraid of any kind of enemy. But discipline is inevitably looser, and the generals are strict, and maybe they will give you some ugliness.
Like Wang Rengong, he introduced outsiders to suppress the local indigenous veterans, and when he faced Xu Le, he dared to make a good show of defeat.
The three major eagle Yang mansions in Hedong are another style. The requirements of military discipline are extremely strict, the ranks are extremely neat, and there is one board and one eye everywhere, and the whole army is strict and prestigious.
In terms of superiority, the three major Yingyang Mansions in Hedong do not have a four- or five-fold advantage in strength, and they are not necessarily the opponents of the two major Yingyang Mansions in Mayi. The experience of the battle formation, the ability to step down immediately, and the command ability of the generals is really a lot worse.
However, the two major eagle Yang mansions in Mayi raised these elite soldiers who survived a hundred battles, which cannot be replicated, and it is difficult to withstand consumption. The three major eagle Yang Mansions in Hedong, which are strictly restrained and raised, can be produced in a steady stream!
A team member went out of the city gate with a protruding chest and belly, and took his men and horses to hand over to the previous group. The two teams were getting together and whispering a few words, while the sons and daughters they led were silent, just silently changing positions.
The handover went smoothly as usual. The successor team was casually asking, "How is today?" ”
The last team leader replied casually: "What else can I do?" It's freezing cold, and Jinyang is about to become a military city, who doesn't dare to make trouble without opening their eyes? ”
The successor team nodded: "Although it is boring, you can also grind the temperament of the children." Tang Guogong has strict requirements from above, and he can take care of it everywhere, our soldiers are well led, Tang Guogong can see it! ”
The last team is nodding: "Who still doesn't understand?" As long as the troops are raised and enter Chang'an, the brigade generals, battalion generals and even the regiment commanders, we may not have no hope. If you can build a family name and become a county leader, it can be regarded as leaving a family fortune for your children and grandchildren! ”
The two of them smiled and bowed their hands, and the successor team suddenly remembered something, and admonished: "Da Lang and San Lang have entered Jinyang Palace again, you go back, the camp is next to the two Lang Jun, and the movement is smaller." Da Lang is okay, but San Lang is a big temper, and when the time comes, the family will come over with a whip to smoke, don't say that you didn't remind you! ”
The previous team nodded to indicate that they understood, and muttered: "Tang Guogong has never come to Jinyang Palace rarely, and Erlang has never been seen." These two Langjun are ............"
The successor team was pulling him: "The matter of the three Lang Jun is also what you said nonsense?" ”
The last team knew that they had lost their mouths, their faces turned pale, and they didn't dare to say anything more, so they had to beckon Erlang to go back and rest.
The sergeants who had been on duty for a round also felt tired, lined up in a less neat line, and those who were lazy and lazy were about to return. Tang Guogong didn't have to say anything about the treatment in the army, he went back to have hot meat soup, a big bowl of juice, vegetables, rice and noodles, everyone can let go of their belly to eat, and then lay a pillow of black sweetness, and there are no mosquitoes and fleas in winter, and they will not change it for a god on this day. If it weren't for the strict prohibition of alcohol in the army under the command of Tang Guogong, why should this soldier be a soldier for a lifetime?
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from a distance, and several horses were galloping.
There is no snow today, and it is a rare sunny day, and the line of sight is very far away, and you can see the reckless mountains to the north.
In this context, a few horses galloped in, perhaps to the ground, and the knights no longer cared about their horsepower, and a few horses ran as if they were about to fly!
To the north is Mayi County, which is the place where the east of the river is concerned. A few horses came suddenly from the north, so that the two teams of men and horses who were handing over immediately became vigilant!
The two teams were giving orders loudly, and dozens of Hedong soldiers immediately lined up and blocked the city gate. The spears are lined up, and the archers take off their horned bows, wind their arrows, and point their arrows to the ground, as long as the general gives an order, they can raise them and throw a rain of arrows at those knights!
A team member stepped forward and shouted, "Come and stay here!" Don't storm the gates! One step further, it's time to release the arrows! ”
The knight also replied loudly from afar: "A certain is a messenger of Liu Gong, and there is a special important document, which will be passed on to Erlang!" ”
With his shout, the knight had already taken off the leather cylinder containing the paperwork on his back and held it high, bright and fire-painted, even from a distance of dozens of paces, he could see it clearly.
Liu Gong, Liu Gong?
The two teams looked at each other.
Didn't you go to Mayi, and there was no news for a few months, Liu Wenjing and Liu Xianzun, who were good friends with Dalang Saburo?
