Chapter 38: Soldiers in the Rain
When the rooster whined in the early morning, Jiao Lian led the firearms battalion and the car battalion to begin to march outside the city to prepare for Zhu Youlang's review.
Outside the city, Zhang Jiayu, Yu Long and others were attracted by the movement of the soldiers, when they saw the soldiers led by Jiao Lian entering the field, there were horizontal and vertical, only to see the flag and the golden drum, but not to hear the noise of people and horses.
"This army is enough to crown the world." A sound of praise passed from behind Chen Zizhuang and Zhang Jiayu.
"Oh." Chen Zizhuang, Zhang Jiayu, and Yu Long heard the sound and looked back at the arrival, and they all laughed happily: "Brother Chen, you are here." ”
Chen Bangyan smiled gently: "Brothers, when the younger brother was about to attack the thief when the water leader was about to attack the thief, I didn't expect that the brothers had already captured the Li thief. ”
"Brother Chen, don't worry, you are indispensable, we have jointly signed a letter to point out the importance of Brother Chen in this." Zhang Jiayu and Yu Long said in the same voice.
"Then thank you brothers for your love." Chen Bangyan saluted and thanked him, in fact, after he saw that Zhu Youlang could decisively send troops to Guangzhou, he decided to join Zhu Youlang.
At this moment, a burst of artillery guns rang out, and the soldiers of the firearms battalion and the car battalion stood outside the city in a banner in a horizontal and orderly manner, and the sun did not rise at this time.
"Do you want the volunteers to rush to line up?" Seeing that the emperor's personal guards were like this, Yu Long's face was a little unnatural and asked Chen Zizhuang and the others.
"At the right time, the proofreading starts at the hour, but judging what they do, let's follow them." Chen Bangyan thought for a moment before answering first.
Chen Zizhuang and Zhang Jiayu both nodded and said, "What Brother Chen said is true. ”
Seeing this, Yu Long immediately left and called the drummer to start beating the drums, but when the drums of the righteous camp sounded together, the volunteers complained, and it was really like a noisy city.
"Alas, there is still a difference between a volunteer and a soldier." Chen Zizhuang had to sigh.
As soon as Chen Zizhuang's words fell, the sky began to rain lightly, Chen Bangyan and Zhang Jiayu glanced at each other, and then sighed: "Alas, it seems that the heavens are not beautiful." ”
After speaking, Chen Zizhuang's face was difficult to look at, but he knew what Zhu Youlang wanted to do while he was taking advantage of this review, it was to recruit volunteers, but now from the eyes of Chen Bangyan and others, Jia did not have an integrated Juewu.
However, when they sat in a grass hut to talk about the road, the soldiers led by Jiao Lian stood on the field like logs, and they could see clearly that not only the soldiers did not move, but even the generals did not move.
"It's no wonder that this army was able to defeat and retreat with the Li thief." After everyone looked at it for an hour, they all praised it.
At this time, Zhu Youlang put on a military uniform with the help of the eunuch, a set of imperial military uniforms that were rushed out.
"Your Majesty, it's raining lightly outside, and Lord Lu asks if you want to delay the proofreading later." Ding Siliang whispered in Zhu Youlang's ear.
"Oh." Zhu Youlang frowned and walked to the window to look out, and when he saw the rain outside, Zhu Youlang's face calmed down.
"The review was held on time, so that Chen Dashi and others could not change due to any changes." When he said this, Zhu Youlang's face seemed to remember something, and he smiled warmly: "Has Li Yuanyin arrived?" ”
"General Li has no news yet, I think it's coming soon."
"No, Li Yuanyin is not my favorite general, but my eagle dog." The corners of Zhu Youlang's mouth pulled and said coldly.
After putting it down, Zhu Youlang picked up the saber and walked out: "Let's go."
When Zhu Youlang came to the city gate, the sky seemed to be joking with him, the rain was falling more and more, but there was some cold wind in Guangdong in November and December, Zhu Youlang came out against the cold wind, but his heart calmed down.
"Long live my emperor, long live ......"
As soon as Zhu Youlang came out, as early as Zhang Fulu and Quan Weiguo were lined up, and the officials and people of Guangzhou, large and small, were standing around, and they knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.
Zhu Youlang looked at Zhang Fulu, who was following not far away, and he couldn't help but think in his heart that this person was really clever.
"Your Majesty, the rain is a little heavier at this time, so you should do it later." Lu Daqi admonished.
Hearing this, Zhu Youlang raised his head and looked at the sky with a firm face: "The national disaster is like this, how can I retreat because of a little rain, not to mention, there are my iron-blooded generals outside, they are all my henchmen, don't say that it rains at this time, even if it is frost and snow, I have nothing." ”
Zhu Youlang put down his words and took the lead in walking to the specially requested lithographic car, looking at this chariot like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Zhu Youlang laughed and boarded the car.
Lu Daqi looked at Zhu Youlang's distant figure, he couldn't help but think of Zhu Youlang's attack on Wang Shen and Ding Kuichu, thinking that Zhu Youlang trained an elite soldier without making a sound, and defeated Li Chengdong without a sound, thinking of this, Lu Daqi couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a great day." ”
When Lu Daqi arrived, Zhu Youlang's car had already traveled, and Lu Daqi led a group of soldiers of all sizes to follow according to the previous platoon.
At this time, the volunteers, under the urging of Yu Long, were barely lined up in several phalanxes, but from a distance, they were like eighteen bends in the mountain road, and the soldiers had no military formation.
"Long live my emperor, long live ......"
As soon as Zhu Youlang appeared not far from the military formation, the sound of artillery guns rang out, and then a big Mingzi flag was raised on the temporarily erected school review platform.
Zhu Youlang wanted to establish a military system of unified waving and unified orders, instead of being like before, the soldiers only understood the main general, but did not understand loyalty, and the main general waved his hand to vote for that, and they could vote for that, especially for the next large-scale equipment and unified army integration.
Under Zhu Youlang's plan, at that time, the army's military sounds, promotions, rewards and punishments have nothing to do with the commander-in-chief, and will only be in charge of commanding the troops to fight.
The firearms battalion and the vehicle battalion only saluted, and under the command of the flag order, they held a high degree of unity, which once again shocked the leaders of the volunteers.
Zhu Youlang took the royal car to go to the volunteer formation, Zhu Youlang looked at the volunteers with different expressions, Zhu Youlang took a deep breath and then shouted.
"Brave men, all those who participate in the battle this time will be rewarded with five taels of silver, and those who have meritorious service will be promoted because of their merits."
Originally, there were a lot of complaints about the volunteer soldiers in the rain, but when they saw Zhu Youlang braving the rain to proofread, they also admired Zhu Youlang, who was the son of heaven and could come down in the rain.
"My emperor is wise, long live my emperor, long live..."
After Zhu Youlang saw the volunteers shouting excitedly, they smiled: "Listen, follow me, there is meat in the meal, silver in the bag, and food at home." ”
As the soldiers behind Lu Daqi shouted Zhu Youlang's words, he and Chen Dashi had already cooperated with each other, which made the volunteers outside the city hear Zhu Youlang's shouting clearly.
"Those who follow me to make meritorious contributions will be expected to be prosperous, and glory and wealth can be expected."
"Now the Tartars are outside, thinking about your wealth, thinking about your wives and daughters, thinking about making you their slaves and lackeys, are you willing?"
"I don't want to, I don't want to ......" When the volunteers heard the end, their shouts turned from excitement to anger.
