Chapter 255: The Prince Returns to the West

The good news of Luo Zhaoyun's victory over Tuguhun Iron Cavalry was transmitted back to Luoyang, the eastern capital, which caused a certain heated discussion in the court, and Emperor Yang Guang of Sui was happy, after all, he sent people to the frontier, and now he has experienced military exploits, proving that he knows people and makes good use of them, and does not disappoint him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although it caused Tuyuhun's diplomatic interference, and sent envoys to beat a rake, suing the border generals to break the friendship between Tuyuhun and the Great Sui, sneak attack the Tuyuhun border guards, and attack and kill a young prince, but Yang Guang, the Yang Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, was very ambitious and arrogant, so he didn't accept this set at all, and directly put on a straight face, and asked the envoy to go back with a message, asking Tuyuhun's Fuyun Khan to be honest and not to cause trouble in the frontier, otherwise, the army would conquer the past.

At the same time, Yang Guang also issued an order to praise Luo Zhaoyun, upgrade one level in the title, award the title of Zijin Doctor, reward a lot of gold, silk, etc., and allow him to continue to expand the horse farm in the frontier, develop cavalry, step up training, have the power of life and death, and use the Jin Lin sword to cut first and then play.

After receiving these promises, Luo Zhaoyun's prestige in Linqiang City became higher, and some captains led by Liang Yuanli, Zhang Jun, Cui Shi and others all expressed their service and were willing to obey the general's dispatch.

"In the future, we don't care about our background, regardless of whether it is the capital army or the border army, we only rely on our talents, and everyone will be treated equally."

Liang Yuanli and the others clasped their fists, and they still admired the young general's decisiveness and eclectic way of doing things.

Guo Xiaoke said at this time: "General Qiyu Luo, this time we have captured thousands of war horses, which have been allocated to the four major horse farms for breeding and breeding, and after a year, there will be 20,000 war horses in the horse farm, and the cavalry will definitely grow." ”

Luo Zhaoyun nodded and said: "The goal of this general is to build 50,000 iron horses in two counties within two years, although there is a shortage of horses now, but knight training is indispensable, you can make some wooden horses, carry out jumping training, and then find some old horses to train and ride horses, and horses that can go to the battlefield to minimize losses." ”

Guo Xiaoke's eyes lit up, such a seemingly simple but difficult way to think of by himself is Luo Zhaoyun's excellence.

"The Admiral understands."

Luo Zhaoyun continued: "The frontier continues to be tuntian, and then recruits new soldiers, from 60,000 garrisons to 100,000 troops, within two years, the imperial court will have a big move against Tuyuhun, here, is a good place for us to expand the territory and make contributions, I believe you, no one is willing to live a mediocre life, in the bitter cold land to retire, we must take this, as a place of sharpening, our springboard, a place that will go down in history." ”

His words are extremely infectious, and many generals are all excited, if they can continue to be promoted here, and then lead the army to fight into Tuyuhun and expand the territory, it can indeed be the glory of their lives.

Luo Zhaoyun was full of energy and said confidently: "In the next year, General Ben has formulated a big plan, including training, building equipment, raising horses, tuntian, military household transfer, formation drills and other aspects, you must fully cooperate, and strictly enforce military discipline!" ”

"The last general obeys!" All the generals and officials stood up and obeyed their orders respectfully.

Luo Zhaoyun nodded, he was looking forward to what kind of army he could build after training in the frontier for a year and raising troops.

………..

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, in late August, the crown prince Yang Zhao had been notified twice by Emperor Yang of Sui that he could return to Daxing City, but he was a little reluctant to go behind the scenes and Wang Mei, so he delayed for a while, causing Yang Guang's dissatisfaction.

The ministers of the Yang Xuan faction began to admonish, and some of them violated His Majesty's holy will and disobeyed the king's orders; Some reported that he had too close contacts with some important ministers in an attempt to gain more power, so he was reluctant to leave the Eastern Capital. These remarks were unfavorable to the prince and aroused Yang Guang's suspicion.

Empress Xiao came to Yang Zhao to talk and asked him to leave the Eastern Capital quickly, otherwise the father and son would be sow discord, which would be a threat to his crown prince.

Yang Zhao had no choice but to kneel and kowtow outside the Qianyang Palace for a long time, bid farewell to his father, and then left the eastern capital with his family, guards, and close ministers and returned to Daxing City.

This road is hundreds of miles, and it has to pass through the Hangu Pass and other lofty mountains and mountains.

Yang Zhao was a little unhappy on the road, because he knew that he was reported by the imperial history and the minister, and there was the shadow of King Qi behind the scenes.

He didn't want to attack King Qi, but thinking of the fate of his uncle Yang Yong, his wife was separated, he drank poisonous wine, and the rest of his flesh and blood were exiled and assassinated.

Yang Zhao was not so enthusiastic about the position of emperor, but now it was difficult to ride a tiger, and it was not that he wanted to give way, and the King of Qi could let him go.

"Hey, it's the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other!" Yang Zhao sighed, opened the curtain of the carriage, saw the afterglow of the sunset and the scenery was very beautiful, and ordered to stop and rest here for one night.

This is not a post station, so the guards need to set up camp and have a lot of work.

At night, when Yang Zhao was flipping through the book, he suddenly felt a dark shadow around him, his body was very fat, and he sat and turned around a little slowly, and when he turned his head, he found that the side was empty, and he seemed to be standing on the other side.

"Don't look at it, I'm here to see you off tonight!"

At this time, a cold voice sounded softly, and the man in black reached out and patted Yang Zhao's head, which directly stunned him, but instead of killing him, he chose acupuncture, using a few long needles and a few acupuncture points, which are the places that block the meridians, speed up the heartbeat, but hinder blood flow.

Originally, Yang Zhao was obese, and he had diabetes, coronary heart disease and other syndromes, so he closed the acupuncture points and stimulated the heart, and soon, Yang Zhao's face was red, and his breathing was difficult. The man in black behind him pulled his body up, then pushed him to the ground, slammed his head to the ground, and faked the scene where he fainted, directly causing intracranial hemorrhage and gradually losing his breath.

The man in black disappeared strangely, and when the chief of the guard outside came in with a strategist to meet the prince half an hour later, Yang Zhao was already dead. (To be continued.) )
