Chapter 558: Vanguard Army

His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard, stretched out his other hand, lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked outside, and sure enough, he saw Xuan Shijing leading the horse and marching forward on foot with three hundred government soldiers, and those government soldiers were also helping some so-called "sandbags" on their legs. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I have to say that this kid has a good brain since he was a child, so he said that this sandbag is tied to the legs of those government soldiers, and with these sandbags on his legs on weekdays, he can travel like an ordinary person, and when these sandbags are taken off, won't his legs be as strong as flying." His Majesty Li Er smiled: "It's rare that he can come up with such a method, Deyi, you said that if in the future, the daily training of the Xuanjia Army is handed over to Jing'er, what kind of changes will the Xuanjia Army have in a year?" His Majesty Li Er looked at Deyi and asked.

"Your Majesty, how it will change, the old slave really doesn't dare to guess, but even now, the Xuanjia Army is already the elite of the Tang Dynasty, if you let you train according to the method of Dongshan Hou, there will definitely be progress, but it will not be as obvious as the government soldiers in Dongshan County, the training of the Xuanjia Army is just a hundred-foot pole head, and it is just a step further." Deyi responded.

His Majesty Li Er nodded: "That's true, to the point where the Xuanjia Army can go further, such a change is also expected." ”

Deyi didn't pick up His Majesty Li Er's words, and was thinking in his heart, could it be that His Majesty didn't hear Xuanhou talk about the expenses of training such a team yesterday? Three hundred government soldiers, the number is not too big, but the Xuanjia army is different, three hundred government soldiers, can it be compared with the Xuanjia army? The Xuanjia Army is only in terms of quantity, and the method of training with Xuanhou can make the household and military departments go crazy with expenditure.

And in the court, not everyone hopes that the army of the Tang Dynasty will become stronger and stronger, which involves the family, how will Your Majesty deal with these trivial matters?

The army continued to move forward, and Xuan Shijing did not give up the training of the government soldiers, but Xuan Shijing felt that following the army in this way did not have much effect on the training intensity of the government soldiers at all, and it had no effect at all.

On the third day of the departure of the army, there was a report from Liaodong, and His Majesty Li Er, on the way to the march that night, raised the tent, and Xuan Shijing was among them.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this afternoon, a report came from Liaodong, now the situation in Goguryeo is clear, Gao Jianwu is defeated by Quangai Suwen and has been killed, and now the big and small political affairs of Goguryeo are all controlled by Quangai Suwen, what do you think?" His Majesty Li Er's gaze swept over everyone.

"Your Majesty." The eldest grandson Wuji stood up and said to His Majesty Li Er: "This is good news for us, Goguryeo is the king of Rongliu who was personally crowned by His Majesty, and now he is dead in the hands of Quangai Suwen, this charge of killing the lord, Quangai Suwen can't escape no matter what, and Gao Jianwu's son Gao Huanquan is in our hands, we can rely on righteousness to directly attack Goguryeo and seek justice for Gao Huanquan, after all, Gao Huanquan has also been in Chang'an for a long time." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji's words are high-sounding enough, this time the Tang Dynasty sent troops to attack Goguryeo, no matter who wins or loses in this civil strife in Goguryeo, it is imperative, but now, someone will send a pillow when he is sleepy, and the matter of Quangai Suwen killing Gao Jianwu gave the Tang army a banner of righteousness.

"What the auxiliary machine said is, in this way, starting tomorrow, the army will accelerate its advance and strive to reach Liaodong as soon as possible, and now that Gao Jianwu is dead, Goguryeo will definitely be in chaos, and the army will attack Goguryeo again, and the result will be twice the result with half the effort." His Majesty Li Er smiled and said, "King of Jiangxia County." His Majesty Li Er looked at Li Daozong.

"The minister is here." Li Daozong stood up in military uniform.

"I ordered you to be the vanguard, lead 5,000 soldiers, and immediately march to Liaodong, and when you arrive in Liaodong, you will immediately cooperate with Liu Hongji and begin to attack Goguryeo to open the way for the army." His Majesty Li Er said.

"Yes, I obey!" Li Daozong replied.

"Your Majesty." Xuan Shijing stood up and said to His Majesty Li Er: "The minister is willing to lead the three hundred soldiers under his command to go to Liaodong with the king of Jiangxia County, please allow Your Majesty!" ”

To be a vanguard army, this is a good opportunity, Xuan Shijing now has few people in his hands, only three hundred people, staying in the army, it is better to march to Liaodong with Li Daozong as a vanguard army, and now it is too much time for the soldiers under his command to advance with the army.

The three hundred soldiers were equipped with baggage and materials, and Liaodong had already prepared, and some things were also transported from Chang'an to Liaodong when the three hundred soldiers were just formed into an army, and now as a vanguard army, they can just come in handy.

"Jing'er, don't mess around, do you know what the duty of the vanguard army is? There are only three hundred people under your hands......" His Majesty Li Er tried to persuade Xuan Shijing, but was interrupted by Xuan Shijing.

"Your Majesty, what you said, the ministers all know that these three hundred government soldiers were brought out by the ministers, and the ministers know what position they are placed in, which is the most appropriate, and please ask Your Majesty to complete them, as for the materials of the three hundred government soldiers, the ministers have already arranged them." Xuan Shijing said in his chest.

"You arranged?" His Majesty Li Er was curious: "How do you arrange it?" In the army, it is not more than usual, you must not mess around. ”

"Xiaochen didn't mess around, Your Majesty still remembers, the things that Xiaochen gave to His Majesty, Xiaochen still has some left in his hands, and he has already let people all transport them to Pingzhou, this time if Xiaochen can attack Goguryeo with the king of Jiangxia as the vanguard army, those things can just come in handy, and it can also make the king of Jiangxia save some strength, after all, the vanguard of the army, if it is hard to fight with the enemy, the damage will not be small, and the minister doesn't want my Tang Dynasty soldiers to be damaged like this." Xuan Shijing said.

"Xuanhou is so confident? If this is really the case, Your Majesty, it is not impossible to let the Marquis of Xuan follow the ministers as a vanguard. Li Daozong arched his hand and said.

Although I don't know what Xuan Shijing said, Li Daozong is sure that Xuan Shijing has gunpowder in his hands, because before the army marched, the good things that Xuan Shijing gave to His Majesty Li Er were only gunpowder, and that thing was so powerful, Li Daozong had also seen it in the hunting ground.

After listening to Xuan Shijing's words, His Majesty Li Er stroked his beard and thought for a while before nodding in agreement.

"Well, this time, I will agree to you, and Dongshan Hou Xuan Shijing will obey the order!" His Majesty Li Er looked at Xuan Shijing.

"The minister is here!" Xuan Shijing was upright, took a step forward, and bowed.

"I order you to go to Liaodong with the king of Jiangxia County for the vanguard army, and everything on the way is subject to the arrangement of the king of Jiangxia County, and you are not allowed to act without authorization."

"Obey the order!" Xuan Shijing responded.
