Luo Zhaoyun and the others didn't wait long outside the city, and the prefects of the Twelve Guards Mansion in the capital came to collect the team and wanted to bring it back to their respective garrisons. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

These twelve mansions are the left and right Wei Mansion, the left and right Wuwei Mansion, the left and right Wuhou Mansion, the left and right Tuntian Wei Mansion, the left and right Ling left and right Mansions, the left and right Jianmen Mansion, among the 100,000 forbidden troops who returned to Beijing, most of them belong to the left and right guards and the left and right military guards, one is responsible for the defense of the imperial city, and the other is the guard outside the city.

Like Luo Zhaoyun, Guo Xiaoke and other people who belong to the East Palace, the number is not large, only more than 1,000 people; Of course, nominally, the East Palace has ten rates of guards, but in fact, only six rates have the power to lead the army, a total of only twenty or thirty thousand people, and half of them are not in the Beijing Division.

At this moment, a young general came over with some personal guards and shouted towards the thousands of East Palace guards: "I, Sima Dejiao, the deputy commander of the East Palace Zuo Si Yu Rate, among you, some of you are new faces, maybe you can't recognize the general, it's okay, in the future, it will be the soldiers of my East Palace Guard Battalion, and they have been familiar with it for a lot of time, so follow the general to the garrison now......"

Luo Zhaoyun stood in the middle of the team, and when he heard this, his heart moved, Sima Dejiao, it turned out to be him! It seems that the other party is only twenty-four or five years old, and he is already the deputy commander of the right guard rate, and he seems to have won Yang Guang's trust.

Who would have thought that this person would take the lead in rebelling in Jiangdu fifteen years later, instigating the forbidden army, embracing Yu Wenhua, and killing Emperor Yang of Sui?

This Sima Dejiao was born in a family of military generals, his father was the governor of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but his father died early, the family decayed when he was a teenager, and became increasingly poor, when he was lonely and weak, he could only rely on the butcher's apprenticeship to kill pigs to make a living, and later the monk near his home Shi Cang and his mother fornicated, he was taken over to raise and educate, and also taught him to read and write.

When he grew up a little, he was able to inherit his father's business and become a soldier. Later, because of his outstanding performance, he entered the palace as an attendant, and by chance he was transferred to the Jin Palace, becoming the governor of the capital, and after a few years of getting along, he was valued by Yang Guangqi and promoted to deputy commander, which is related to personal luck and ability.

The guards of the Great Sui Jingshi are divided into the south and the north, and the twelve guards belong to the south and the north are the soldiers of the guard, and the other is the forbidden army to the north. The south of the prime minister is in the hands of the prime minister, that is, the servant shooting, the military department is still in the book, etc., with the civil minister in charge of military affairs, stationed in the south of the palace, in the Suzaku Gate in front of the Daxing Palace in Chang'an City.

Of course, inside this Suzaku Gate are only the gates and a few soldiers and horses of the various guards, and the rest of the army is stationed outside the city, and once the court is mobilized, it can go directly to the battle.

The North Ya Xiangyan is in the hands of the emperor's cronies, belongs to the forbidden soldiers directly under the emperor's direct jurisdiction, does not go through the mobilization of the military department, and those who are stationed in the forbidden garden are mostly in the north of the palace, mostly in the forest garden outside the Xuanwu Gate and the heavy Xuanmen, also known as the North Gate Tun Bing.

The soldiers and horses of the East Palace are stationed in the Changlin Gate on the left and right, known as the Changlin soldiers, and they also belong to the list of forbidden soldiers, which are out of the scope of the transfer of the military department and only belong to the prince.

Luo Zhaoyun and others had already broken away from the army, formed the East Palace to lead the guard phalanx, followed Sima Dejiao, and went around Chang'an City for half a circle, not taking Zhuque Street, but entering from the Tonghua Gate in the east of the city, which is the closest place to the East Palace.

When Luo Zhaoyun approached the city gate, he looked up and paid attention, the towering city wall, several zhang high, there is a side wall on the main wall, the side wall is built with brick stacks, the battlements between the brick stacks are the lookout holes and shooting ports of the guards, and there are majestic city towers, corner towers, watchtowers on the city wall, which stand at intervals; The roof of the building is a heavy eaves and nine ridges rest mountain type, surrounded by corridor columns, and the road is adjacent to the road.

He rode and followed the procession, crossed the drawbridge, entered the city gate, he looked back at the tall and majestic Chang'an city wall, like a copper wall and iron wall, the special gear-shaped concave and convex outside the city wall, there are also four lonely lookout platforms, there is no passage and stairs below, only on the top of the platform with wooden planks to match the city wall to come and go.

"A thousand-year-old city, the vicissitudes of history! How can I cross time and space for 1,500 years, come to the Sui and Tang dynasties, and feel the life of the ancients, which is amazing. Luo Zhaoyun was very excited in his heart, and kept looking around, as much as possible to see the original appearance of this living ancient city.

Entering the ancient city, you can only see blue bricks and gray tiles, flower buildings and painting pavilions, neat streets, square bricks and bluestone roads, passing pedestrians in gorgeous costumes and beads, Luo Qi fragrance, wide streets, busy traffic, a prosperous scene.

However, there were no shops or liquor shops on either side of the street, because since the beginning of the Great Sui Dynasty, the capital built a fang area, and divided the residential area into one hundred and eight squares, which resembled a Go board.

Each square is more than a mile long and wide, and there are crossroads in it, as well as a number of small streets. The population of each square is more or less, there are fewer people, about 1,000 people, most of them are according to the city wall, remote squares, there are many people, more than 10,000 people, all in the prosperous place, close to the palace and the two cities next to the squares,

About a stick of incense, the thousand-person team from the Tonghua Gate, mighty to the East Palace area, they these soldiers, just live in the periphery of the East Palace School martial arts field and the courtyard groups on both sides, away from the place where the prince lives, but also separated by several checkpoints, if the area of the East Palace is like a square, then these East Palace guards and Yang Guang's residence are not a courtyard at all, and they can even be separated by two small streets.

"This Chang'an City is so big!" Ji Pingwu observed the whole way, dumbfounded, he was considered to have gained a long knowledge, and he was glad that he met Luo Zhaoyun, followed him to turn lucky, and had the opportunity to come to the capital on an errand.

After the soldiers of the East Palace came to the station, there were six leaders of the Wei Mansion Sima, the army, the main Bo and so on to verify the number, for the new soldiers, re-register the name, household registration, age, etc., very detailed, after all, the East Palace is directly under the jurisdiction of the prince, if the source is unknown, in case you want to assassinate the prince, wouldn't it be a big joke.

Once the identity and household registration are true, if it is linked to the fate of the family, if anyone has a great rebellion, the monk will not be able to run away from the temple, and the direct family will definitely be affected.

Luo Zhaoyun and the other newcomers received new clothes and armor, waist cards, etc., and went to their own accommodation camp, which was a barracks area, without the kind of tents for marching, but rows of neat houses combined with tiles and wood.

A small courtyard is where a team of fifty people lives, and a row of such houses is a whole five hundred. And Luo Zhaoyun was appointed as a regular attendant of the military cavalry, and he could live in a room alone, but because he had just been promoted, he had an official position, but he had no real power, and he could not immediately command the army.

After settling down, Guo Xiaoke and Ji Pingwu came to Luo Zhaoyun's house, planning to ask him to go out for a stroll before the curfew at dusk, but unexpectedly, Yang Guang's personal guards came over to find Luo Zhaoyun to convey the prince's message, so that Luo Zhaoyun could prepare and go to the East Palace to participate in the reception banquet after dusk.

Luo Zhaoyun was stunned on the spot, with a wry smile on his face, secretly wondering if he, a petty official from the seventh rank, was qualified to participate in the dinner set by the prince in the capital where the princes and nobles grabbed a lot of money?
