Chapter 162: Emperor Parade (I)

The Baling Battalion of the Bingzhou Army also became a temporary prisoner of war camp, and two infantry reserve brigades were responsible for guarding these prisoners of war.

There were more than 70,000 prisoners of war who surrendered this time, and nearly 20,000 wounded, plus nearly 20,000 prisoners of the previous Han Sui and Dong Huang coalition forces, and 100,000 new prisoners of war were added to the battle of Guanzhong.

This is not counting Zhang Ji and Ma Teng, who came over, and there are more than 50,000 people in this part.

According to the agreement of Lu Bu and Ma Teng, Zhang Ji, and even Li Dao and others, as long as they wanted, all of them would be reorganized into regular troops of the Bingzhou Army.

In the open space next to the mighty surrender procession, the senior generals of the Bingzhou Army led by Lu Bu accepted the surrender of the generals of the Xiliang Army led by Li Dao.

Li Dao and the others held their sabers, swords, helmets and seals in both hands, and lined up to wait for Lu Bu to receive them.

When they saw Lu Bu surrounded by the generals, riding a tall red rabbit horse, the silver helmet and silver armor shining in the bright sun, and the background became more and more heroic!

Li Dao took the lead, and all the generals of the Xiliang army knelt down on one knee and bowed down to worship.

Lu Bu jumped off his horse, walked closer, helped the generals of the Xiliang army up one by one, asked them to put on their helmets, and put swords and swords on them one by one.

"General Li Wei, General Guo Yan, General Fan Chou, since the generals are sincere in surrendering, and saving Chang'an City from war, it is also a great achievement, and the merits and demerits are offset by the merits."

"As long as you are willing, you can still serve under my Lu Bu, when the country and the nation are employed, generals, why not keep your skills to serve the country? Wouldn't it be beautiful to open up territory for my Han Dynasty? ”

Li Dao and others thanked Lu Bu for his generosity, and they all revisited him as courtiers, and swore allegiance and never betrayed.

Next, it is natural to arrange a grand ceremony to enter the city.

Lü Bu decided to participate in the battle of all the main brigades, each brigade selected a regiment, with a parade phalanx into the city, and the guard brigade was fully involved.

In addition, such as the engineer regiment, the teaching regiment, and the reserve brigade can also send a battalion to participate in the city entry ceremony, and finally Zhang Ji and Ma Teng's subordinates are allowed to form a cavalry team of 3,000 people to participate in the city entry ceremony.

This time, Li Su could finally appear in the sun, and he entered the city in advance as the deputy chief of staff of the Bingzhou Army, preparing to arrange the ceremony of entering the city.

According to Jia Xu's instructions, Li Su entered the palace first, met with His Majesty the Emperor, and forwarded Lu Bu's recital to His Majesty the Emperor.

In the twists and turns, Lü Bu explained the reasons for his attack on Chang'an, the plans and arrangements after the defeat of Chang'an, and in the letter, Lü Bu also expressed his loyalty to the Han family and the sincerity of the emperor.

He also expressed his good wish to help His Majesty the Emperor govern the world, and finally euphemistically expressed his hope that His Majesty the Emperor would attend this huge ceremony to enter the city and give Lu Bu and all the generals of the state army the glory they deserved!

Although Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty was only eleven years old, he was born in the royal family since he was a child, and he was extremely intelligent.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty sent a friendly voice and a friendly attitude to Li Su, allowing Lü Bu to draw up a list of meritorious escorts, and he would definitely approve it without discount, and agreed to personally go out of the city ten miles to meet Lü Bu.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty also said that he would accompany Lü Bu into the city, and then set up a banquet to celebrate in Weiyang Palace, and would give amnesty to the world, and agreed to Lü Bu's request to allow the people of Chang'an to participate in and watch the ceremony of entering the city.

May 5, 191 A.D.

This day is also an important festival "Chongwu Festival", that is, the Dragon Boat Festival in later generations, this day is recognized by the ancients as an auspicious day when the pure yang of heaven and earth is extremely prosperous.

At noon on the Dragon Boat Festival, the three noons are overlapping, and the heaven and earth are extremely yang.

Accompanied by the Chinese military minister of the dynasty, Emperor Liu Xie of Han took the imperial car and left the east gate of Chang'an City for ten miles to welcome Lü Bu and the army of Hezhou into the city.

Under the organization of the Holy Decree and Li Su, the people of Chang'an City came to the streets and alleys to welcome them.

Especially under Li Su's propaganda, they learned about the gambling and fight between Lu Bu and Li Dao, and knew that Lu Bu did everything possible to avoid Chang'an City from being destroyed by war again and avoid the disaster of swords.

Many people are still grateful to Lu Bu from the bottom of their hearts, in this troubled times, in a world where human life is not valuable, there are still people who put the lives of the people in their hearts, which is really rare.

Many people think that maybe a heroic figure like Lu Bu can really let the people of the world live a good life when he enters this court, right?

He Jin, Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun, and Li Dao were all carp who crossed the river, and they were even scolded by others.

Emperor Liu Xie sat on the royal car and looked forward to the direction of the Baling in the east.

According to the process of entering the city, Lu Bu will set off from the camp of Baling, lead the army to participate in the entry ceremony, and come to the east gate of Chang'an to be reviewed by His Majesty the Emperor.

After waiting for a while, he suddenly heard the call of a high-pitched eagle falcon from the east, Liu Xie looked up, but saw that in the sky, two big birds flew from the east at a fast speed.

While flying, they kept chirping, and when they saw the dense crowd outside the east gate, the two big birds swooped down quickly.

Closer to the ground, Liu Xie was able to see clearly that the two big birds were actually two large falcons, with white heads, wings spread out for a length of a zhang, and the speed was fast.

Soon swooped over the crowd and hovered high again.

Li Su, who was accompanying Liu Xie, said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, this pair of big birds was domesticated by General Lu Bu's army, called "Hai Dongqing", extremely smart, fast flying, and excellent eyesight. ”

"After artificial domestication, it can play the role of reconnaissance, tracking, and vigilance, and express its meaning with a fixed call."

Liu Xie was still young, and immediately became interested in it, and there were actually falcons domesticated in the palace, but there was no such thing as this "Hai Dongqing".

Haidong Qing was still hovering in the air, but there was a long trumpet sound and rumbling war drums in the east.

But soon Liu Xie felt that the ground under the car was trembling, and there was a more rumbling sound in the east, like thunder, overshadowing the sound of war drums, and like the sound of horses' hooves.

Liu Xie stood up and looked into the distance, and the surrounding civil and military officials and the people of Chang'an were also looking eastward.

I saw a black wave appear on the horizon in the east, rolling in, and when I got closer, I could see that it was a large black oppressive cavalry.

The heavy sound of horses' hooves filled his ears, and the earth seemed to tremble, like a black storm and waves.

At the front were a hundred strangely shaped, spear-filled, hedgehog-shaped three-man chariots, rumbling at high speed.

Behind the chariot were fifteen hundred heavily armored cavalrymen, horses and knights shrouded in heavy black armor, like ghosts from the dark lands!

The thunderous sound of horses' hooves came from these heavily armored cavalry, and the earth seemed to be unable to bear their weight, and trembled slightly.

Further back, there are neatly arranged cavalry phalanxes one after another, all wearing the traditional crimson military uniforms of the Han army and black armor.

The phalanx is arranged very neatly, the spacing between the front and rear rows is almost equal, and the left and right are also level.

These chariots and iron horses were all galloping at high speed, heading straight for the crowd outside the east gate of Chang'an, which brought a great visual impact.

Fortunately, this emperor Liu Xie is not more than ordinary people, he is very bold, but he is very calm, but many civil and military ministers and ordinary people are not as good as the little emperor's psychological quality, and they are frightened by the oncoming rolling iron horse, and they can't stand steadily.

This is actually what Lu Bu and Jia Xu discussed, that is, to give everyone a dismount, so that the invincible demeanor of the Bingzhou Iron Horse will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
