The Tang family is a very special family in Daning, every person in the Tang family is low-key, so many years, there are only a handful of people who send the family into the office every year, so that although the Tang family is large, there is almost no influence in the court, but whether it is His Majesty or the civil and military officials, there is a bit of sincere respect for the Tang family.

At that time, because the Tang family was too powerful, the ancestors of the Tang family made a decision that shocked the world, shocked the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and even His Majesty the Daning Emperor at that time felt incredible...... The people of the Tang family are not allowed to enter the office unless they are summoned by the imperial court.

His Majesty the Emperor Daning persuaded for a long time before the family ban was changed, only a very small number of people leave the Tang family every year to enter the army or the imperial court, most of them, no matter how amazing they are, have to stay in the northwest to train soldiers, in order not to make His Majesty the emperors of Daning have no fear, all the people of the Tang family who are training in the northwest have no merit, just train the soldiers, that is to say, they are all cloth leaders.

There is no fame, no general armor, and no command, so that the government and the opposition can rest assured that His Majesty is at ease.

The reason why the Tang family was so prominent at the beginning of Daning was because half of Daning was brought down by the ancestors of the Tang family, and secondly, because of ...... The ancestor of the Tang family, Tang Pidi, was the sworn brother of the founding emperor of Daning.

It was also the only king with a different surname in Daning after the founding of the country, and soon after he was crowned king, he deliberately made some mistakes and asked the emperor to demote him to the prince of the country.

At the beginning, His Majesty the founding emperor of Daning originally gave the glory of the hereditary replacement of the prince, but Tang Pi kowtowed nine times on the main hall, he said to the founding emperor, the Tang family has no merit, all the credit is my Tang rival alone, the descendants of the Tang family are not eligible to enjoy the king, Tang is the grace of His Majesty, it is the accumulation of military merits, it is the service of soldiers, and the descendants of my Tang rival have no relationship.

At that time, when these words were said in the main hall, His Majesty the Emperor Daning was not allowed eight times, and eight times he helped Tang Rival up, and Tang Rival fell to the ground on his knees for the ninth time and hit the floor of the hall with his forehead, and the emperor was distressed, so he granted his request.

Even if he went to the king to seal the prince later, the emperor couldn't bear to tremble like Tang Rival.

Tang Pidi once said to people that the Tang family's honors are all because of me, the honor generation is the extreme, extending for two generations is a superfluous blessing, and extending for three generations is the bane.

What is even more admirable is that it has been hundreds of years since the founding of Daning, but the people of the Tang family have followed the legacy of the Tang rival for generations, conscientiously trained troops in the northwest, and did not participate in military affairs, did not participate in civil affairs, and even had few contacts with local officials.

It is rumored that the Tang family has not had a young man who is not convinced, but once someone shows it, he will be severely suppressed by the family.

Therefore, His Majesty Li Chengtang once said that Daning has been established for hundreds of years, and it is the Tang Sect that has paid the most.

The Northeast Frontier War is imminent, and the 360,000 troops of the Heiwu North Courtyard are heading south, and if it really fights, it will announce the beginning of the Daning Northern Expedition in advance, so the first thing His Majesty thought of was to send a decree to the Tang family in the northwest.

How is this will written?

The emperor and Lai Cheng pondered for a long time on the carriage back to the palace, and now the old lady of the Tang family has a calm and rigid personality, and has pursued the legacy of the ancestors of the Tang family all his life, so if a large number of people are mobilized from the Tang family, what will the old lady do? With His Majesty's will, the old lady will naturally not stop him, but if he doesn't give these people of the Tang family a reputation, how can he lead the troops? Once the troops are led, so many people enter the army, and in an instant, it will have a huge impact on the composition of the Daning soldiers.

Lai Cheng was silent for a long time: "The border army has a sound system and neat personnel, if many people are transferred from the Tang family, how will they be placed in the frontier?" If they take other people's positions to command the army, and others are not convinced, there will be estrangement and even contradictions in the army, which is not conducive to a big war. ”

The Emperor nodded, "So I didn't plan to divide people everywhere. ”

"Huh?"

Lai Cheng vaguely guessed His Majesty's thoughts: "Your Majesty, no." ”

Your Majesty doesn't want to separate so many great generals of the Tang family, then it is bound to let the people of the Tang family lead an army alone, and if the northwest divides troops to the Tang family, maybe the general will have ideas about Kyushu, even if there is no idea, Tang Baobao's future succession as the general of Western Xinjiang is already a matter decided by His Majesty, and it is difficult to change it, and the Tang family will lead an army alone, then the entire Western Xinjiang will be the Tang family in the future.

"There are three roads in the western frontier, and all the soldiers are promoted to soldiers."

The emperor knew that Lai Cheng was worried, but he was not worried.

He has never been worried about the Tang family, as if he has never doubted Han Zhaozhi, and he has never been worried about Shen Leng and Meng Chang'an.

"The total number of soldiers in the three provinces is 100,000, I will all hand them over to the Tang family, give two months, the three conscripts will gather in one place and hand them over to the Tang family for training, I have not planned to let them go out immediately, the war in the northeast frontier will not need them, but if the battle starts in advance, the impact on the future will be too great, and I have to think more about the future...... These 100,000 people may play a key role. ”

Lai Cheng still wanted to persuade him, but His Majesty just didn't listen.

In fact, Lai Cheng also understands that there will be no problems with the people of the Tang family, not to mention that there is still the old lady pressing, even if there is not, Tang Baobao and the backbone of their generation will be able to suppress it, but as a speech official, he must say it.

"One more thing."

The emperor glanced at Lai Cheng: "I want to transfer the southern troops to the north." ”

Lai Cheng's heart tightened violently.

The southern troops were transferred to the north, and the 20 guards of Daning, in fact, the south accounted for 14 guards, if the southern Xinjiang soldiers were transferred to the north, who would command them? They are all soldiers and generals, they are all good talents, they are all arrogant people, and no one can serve the public, if Your Majesty is on the expedition at this time, then the five-year plan formulated before will become a meaningless thing, and this battle will become an unprepared battle, and some people in Chang'an City are not honest.

"I know what you're thinking, I have a candidate, if I didn't have an idea, why would I invite the old general back from the Eastern Xinjiang Palace?"

The emperor glanced at Lai Cheng, and Lai Cheng suddenly realized.

If it is about seniority and prestige, of course the old general is no problem, and he will even bow to Pei Tingshan in Kyushu when he sees him.

The emperor pondered for a moment: "The cabinet will be busy recently, coordinating the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry...... I went to see the Dongjiang Palace, and when I went there, everyone thought that I was going to see Pei Ting Mountain, and later thought that I was going to quell the chaos, but in fact, I was looking at the terrain...... The terrain of the generation of Dongjiang Xinggong is good, and after you go back, you plan to build a dock there within a year, and transfer old craftsmen from the Anyang dock. ”

Lai Cheng lowered his head: "After the minister goes back, he will draft the will." ”

"Also, the plan is to give Zhuang Yong, there is no big war in southern Xinjiang, and another 20,000 soldiers will be allocated to Shen Leng from among the soldiers of the water division."

Lai Cheng was stunned: "Do you want to divide it?" ”

The emperor glanced at Lai Cheng, and Lai Cheng sighed: "Divide and divide, Your Majesty will divide when he says it." ”

"The Dongjiang Dockyard will be built within a year, and a fleet of the same scale as the Southern Xinjiang Naval Division will be built within three years."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief: "It's so easy to fight against the Black Martial Arts. ”

At the same time, Northern Xinjiang.

Wu Xinyu, the general of Northern Xinjiang, looked at his generals: "Meng Changan and Shen Leng defeated Sura City, and the 360,000 army of the Black Warriors went south, what do we have to do to involve the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Black Martial South Courtyard, not only to involve them, but also to divide the troops again...... So I summoned you here to ask, which one is willing to lead 10,000 troops to Xifengkou? ”

The troops in the northern Xinjiang cannot be transferred too much, Xiahouzhi has already taken away 20,000 people before, and another 10,000 is the limit.

Everyone looked at each other, not that no one wanted to go, but that anyone could go.

"General, I'll go."

Tang Li, the female general who had just stood on the side and leaned against the pillar and didn't look like a soldier seriously, stood up straight: "Give me five thousand people." ”

"Five thousand?"

Wu Xinyu paused.

Tang shrugged his shoulders fiercely: "Too much? The three thousand. ”

Wu Xinyu: "I just said that I will bring 10,000 troops." ”

"Too much."

Tang said ruthlessly: "What we have to deal with here in the northern Xinjiang is the elite of the Black Martial Southern Courtyard, as well as the beggar army, I got the news that Liao Kill Wolf is already the general of the Southern Courtyard, that guy is not Su Gai...... So I took only 3,000 men, and I didn't want any more. ”

Wu Xinyu: "Five thousand." ”

Tang ruthless: "Two thousand." ”

Wu Xinyu: "Then three thousand." ”

Tang snorted: "Then three thousand." ”

Tang ruthlessly said that no one would fight again, although she was a woman, but among the generals in Northern Xinjiang, who regarded her as a woman and tried martial arts in private, except for Meng Changan, who had not been beaten by her......

"You go to the treasury first, and you only need to bring the necessary armaments."

Wu Xinyu glanced at Tang ruthlessly: "Also, don't always go to Meng Changan to compete." ”

Tang Yan shrugged his shoulders again and did not speak.

Thinking in my heart that if I don't compare, I won't compare, I have fought with Meng Changan so many times without winning or losing, and it's not interesting to fight, isn't there still a Shen Leng over there? It might be fun to pick a new opponent to play.

Wu Xinyu waved his hand, and the generals dispersed, leaving only Tang ruthless alone.

He looked at Tang Li: "After arriving at Xifengkou, what arrangements for military affairs are still based on Meng Changan, if the general Pei Tingshan does not give an order, you will obey Meng Changan's dispatch." ”

Tang snorted: "Okay." ”

Wu Xinyu also sighed in his heart, this is to go to Meng Changan's account, if she goes to someone else's account, how can she be so obedient and convinced, but think about it, there is Shen Leng there, and it is also a good thing to beat Tang Ruthless's sharpness.

"Ballista?"

Tang glanced at Wu Xinyu ruthlessly.

"No."

Wu Xinyu shook his head: "Before the Northern Expedition, the crossbow array car will not appear on the battlefield. ”

Tang snorted: "It's very stingy...... Since the crossbow chariot is not given, then I want 3,000 fast horses, and if I go there, I can't bring infantry, bring 3,000 light horses, and there is one more ...... If there is a real fight, no one can transfer my people under my own command, Meng Changan can't do it, Pei Tingshan can't do it, and neither can Tianwang Laozi. ”

Wu Xinyu said in his heart, you still have the king of heaven in your heart?

"Okay, okay, give you three thousand light horsemen, and each of you will bring two pieces of equipment."

"No, you don't."

Tang strode out of the door: "What I want is a light ride, armor, light clothing, a complete bow and crossbow, and a horizontal knife, which is enough." ”

She glanced back at Wu Xinyu and frowned: "Can you shave your beard?" ”

Wu Xinyu shook his head: "No." ”

Tang Yan also shook his head: "It's ugly." ”

Wu Xinyu shrugged his shoulders as he learned from Tang ruthlessly: "I'll scrape again when you return victorious." ”

The corners of Tang's mouth hooked: "Talking counts?" ”

"Liars are dogs."

Tang snorted, walked out a few steps and turned back: "Do you like that kind of gentle, considerate, virtuous and wise woman?" ”

Wu Xinyu's face changed: "You care?" ”

Tang ruthless: "Hehe...... I'll catch one for you. ”

Wu Xinyu: "Catch a fart, you can go and come back quickly." ”

Tang laughed ruthlessly, and he didn't know why his eyes were so bright.
