Pinggao County has become a huge construction site at this time, this city is too important, as soon as the Turks retreated, the Great Zhou immediately concentrated all efforts to repair the city, but the original residents of the city were turned into white bones by the Turks' scimitars, and the remaining population was only one-twelfth of the tenth, so they could only mobilize a large number of troops from behind to build, and slowly move the people to fill it.

Li Chong is still the county guard of Pinggao County, with the relationship between Li Mu, the Duke of Shenguo, Yang Jian will naturally not be easily offended, Pinggao County is lost, and the ancestral grave of the Li family may be cut down by the Turks, Li Mu almost vomited blood when he heard it, if it was his own son, maybe he would detain Li Chong back to Beijing in anger, but for this dead brother's son, Li Mu had some pity and did not chase after him.

"Dodge, dodge. Six hundred miles expedited. A messenger planted a flag, stirred up billowing smoke and dust, and hurried towards Pinggao County.

Hearing the shout, the soldiers defending the city of Pinggao County hurriedly moved away the horses in front of the temporary gate, and the knights who came over were not even interested in taking a second look at Pinggao County, which was being rebuilt, and changed their horses and rolled forward again.

Many people stopped what they were doing and looked at the messenger in the distance suspiciously: "What's the big deal, it takes 600 miles to expedite the delivery?" ”

"Look at what you see, hurry up and get to work, how can you manage the major affairs of the country." The overseer shouted.

Everyone thought about it, and the jingling sound sounded again, but before they could do it for long, there was another sound of horses' hooves, and the same shouted: "Dodge, dodge, six hundred miles urgent." ”

Everyone was stunned, in just half an hour, there were two messengers who delivered a six-hundred-mile expedited service, which was the fastest news transmission speed in the Great Zhou at present, and there must be a major event in the capital.

After the second horse changed horses in Pinggao County, everyone couldn't help but talk about it, and they all speculated whether it was the Great Zhou where there was another beacon fire, and now the Turks were blocked, and the rest were the two countries of Nan and Liang, or the prince and minister rebelled.

This time, even Li Chong's heart was pounding, and the overseers forgot to urge everyone to work, and they all stretched their necks to look at the disappearing smoke and dust in the distance.

Yang Tian is directing the residents of Wuyuan County to fish, in addition to farming, most of the residents of Wuyuan County are grazing, there is no habit of fishing, and there are only small nets used in the stream, Yang Tian had to organize people to weave nets overnight, and it took three days to weave two large nets, which can be directly dragged into the water by small boats.

There are more fish here than expected, often hundreds of catties of fish can be caught in a net, and the sight of those fat fish jumping around, the people on the shore are happy to crack their mouths, and they have a new food supplement, so they don't have to worry about starvation.

A horse came in a hurry from afar, and when he arrived at Yang Tian's side, before he could get off his horse, he said loudly: "Report, general, the capital has sent six hundred miles to expedite, please return home quickly." ”

Yang Tian didn't say a word, beckoned Chiying over, turned over and got on the horse, and suddenly the sound of horses' hooves of "splashing thorns, splashing stabs" sounded, and more than ten personal soldiers behind hurriedly followed.

When he arrived at the temporary Great General's Mansion in Wuyuan County, Yang Tian pulled the reins, the red shadow hissed lightly, and had stopped, Yang Tian jumped off the horse, walked quickly inside, and asked the soldiers at the door as he walked: "Who sent the six hundred miles to expedite, where is the messenger now?" ”

The soldiers were just about to answer, when a sound of horses' hooves came from the distance, and before the person arrived, the voice arrived first: "Dodge, dodge, six hundred miles urgent." ”

Yang Tian was stunned, could it be that the pro-soldier who reported the news just now was uncertain, and he was stunned for a moment, the messenger had come to Yang Tian and stopped urgently, the legs of the war horse he stepped on were weak, and he was already foaming at the mouth, and he almost fell to the ground and almost fell the messenger, and the messenger didn't care about the horse that fell to the ground, and handed a big envelope to Yang Tian: "The eldest prince, the master's six hundred miles are urgent." ”

Yang Tian recognized that this messenger was one of the personal guards beside his father, and was taken aback, and was about to open the envelope, when the personal soldier who was questioned just now reminded: "General, there is also a six-hundred-mile urgent letter inside." ”

Yang Tian stopped opening the letter and hurriedly walked inside, the hall was already full of people, Shi Wansui, Da Xihong, and Li Gang...... Almost all the high-level leaders of the Xuanlong Army in Wuyuan County came, obviously alarmed by the six-hundred-mile rush from the front.

One of the messengers inside was also Yang Jian's personal guard, and when he saw Yang Tian, his face suddenly became happy, and he took out the letter from his arms: "The eldest son, the master's six hundred miles are urgent." ”

This letter is much smaller than the second letter, but it is also extremely thick, Yang Tian opened it first, took out the letter paper and looked at it carefully, the look on his face became more and more surprised, and his heart was very excited: "It's coming, it's finally coming." ”

Yang Tian is bitter that he is not familiar with history, although he knows that the Great Sui will replace the Zhou in the future, but how and when to represent it, he does not know at all, so he has been cautious, for fear that because of the wings flapped by his butterfly, history will be changed, such as the early death of Emperor Yuan today, Yang Jian became the prime minister, he can finally be sure that the history of the Great Sui Dynasty Zhou has been started.

Yang Tian didn't know that just more than twenty days ago, the entire Suiguo Mansion almost overturned, and the Dugu clan did not send a messenger after learning that Yang Jian was safe and sound, otherwise he would scare Yang Tian half to death, thinking that history had changed.

Received two six-hundred-mile expedited letters in one day, which was unprecedented, seeing Yang Tian's face excited after opening the letter, the generals of the Xuanlong Army were even more desperate to know the content of the letter, and stretched their necks one by one to wait for Yang Tian to speak.

Seeing that Yang Tian was stunned, Li Yuan finally couldn't help it: "General, what happened?" How could the court send two 600-mile expedited letters in a row? ”

As soon as Li Yuan opened his mouth, everyone else also shouted: "Yes, General, what happened?" ”

Some people even speculated: "Will there be **** in the capital?" ”

"Did the Southern Dynasty call?

"How is it possible, you didn't see the general smiling, there must be something good."

……

Yang Tianqiang couldn't help but be happy: "No, we can go back." ”

As soon as they heard that they could go back, all the generals were also happy, they had been away from Beijing for two months, and they had won a big victory, and they had just gone back to receive meritorious service awards, and now there was no battle, and they had to participate in the work of building cities to pacify the people while staying in front, and they were bitter and tired, and they were really not what they were good at, and many people had already retreated, but the Turks had not completely retreated, and they were embarrassed to say it.

No one can hide the joy on Yang Tian's face, of course he can't say that the emperor is dead at this time, his father is happy to be the prime minister, the emperor is dead, how much to show a little grief is the way of the courtier, but he can't pretend at this time, and the longer this matter is kept secret, the better, so he has to avoid the important and light, so that everyone is happy.

Many people still secretly wondered that it was just a matter of letting the Xuanlong Army return to Beijing, why should they send two letters of six hundred miles in a row, but Yang Tian didn't say it explicitly, and they didn't want to ask.

Yang Tian put away the opened letter, did not open the second letter, and asked Li Gang first: "Counselor Li, how long will it take to gather the Xuanlong Army." ”

"It will take three days to return to the general." Li Gang hurriedly replied.

Yang Tian was stunned: "It takes so long?" No, there is not so much time, send messengers immediately, the Xuanlong army will all withdraw to Wuyuan County before noon tomorrow, if you can't catch up, you can directly go to Pinggao County to assemble, and you must set off before tomorrow. ”

"Yes." Li Gang replied loudly, knowing that something big must have happened in Beijing, but Yang Tian didn't say it, otherwise Yang Tian wouldn't be in such a hurry, the Xuanlong Army has replenished the two thousand sergeants, but these two thousand people have been sent to more than ten towns to maintain order, and it is not easy to gather them all in one day.

"Da Xihong."

"Humble duty."

"I will pass on the order that the Duke of Le'an will immediately dispatch 3,000 soldiers from Pule County and rush to Pinggao County within four days."

Da Xihong was stunned, Pule County originally had less than a thousand remnants, after Yang Tian came, vigorously strengthened the strength of the front line, now Pule County has 5,000 county soldiers, most of them are guest troops transferred from elsewhere, and it is easy to transfer 3,000 people back to Beijing, but it is too difficult to let these county soldiers travel five or six hundred miles in four days.

"What, Lord Daxi, are there any difficulties?"

"Nope." Da Xihong was stunned.

Everyone felt that something was wrong, and it would be good for the Xuanlong Army to return to Beijing, so why did they have to transfer border county soldiers, and they became nervous one by one.

Yang Tian quickly sent an order, and a total of more than 30,000 horses were drawn from various states and counties, and they were ordered to meet in the towns where the Xuanlong Army had passed back to Beijing, and then they would enter Beijing together.

Hearing Yang Tian's successive orders, everyone was stunned, and Li Gang asked: "General, transfer troops back to Beijing without authorization, if there is no holy decree, I am afraid that some prefectures and counties will refuse to carry it out." ”

Li Gang said euphemistically, although Yang Tian has the position of the head of the front line, and can transfer personnel and material resources from various counties and prefectures, it does not mean that he can arbitrarily transfer troops and horses into Beijing, otherwise any general on the front line can bring troops into Beijing, and the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty will already be in chaos. If it is said that Yang Tian's transfer of Daxi Changru to Pinggao County is still a normal transfer, and those transfers in the latter are tantamount to rebellion if there is no will of the court.

Yang Tian looked at everyone's suspicious faces, knowing that everyone had doubts in their hearts, and laughed: "Don't worry, I have no intention of rebelling, and the will to transfer troops is already here." After speaking, Yang Tian opened the second six-hundred-mile urgent letter seal, and inside was a holy decree.

Yang Tian unfolded the holy decree, which clearly wrote the intention of letting Yang Tian lead troops into Beijing, and invoked Yang Tian to appoint and dismiss officials along the way.

After passing the holy decree to the generals, everyone's suspicions were relieved, although Yang Tian had established his prestige in the army, everyone was not blindly obedient to the point that Yang Tian asked them to rebel and follow.

"Okay, this official document of the court will also be issued to all states and counties along the route, and if anyone dares to refuse, they can be killed on the spot."

"Yes." All the generals are all kind, and now that Yang Tian has been sentenced to the two of them a few months ago, no one dares to doubt whether Yang Tian can really kill people.

Early the next morning, the Xuanlong army distributed in various towns and cities of the team arrived one after another, many teams received Yang Tian's order, all set off overnight, to the future, except for the farthest city of 200 people did not arrive, all the soldiers actually gathered, for the Xuanlong army's law, Yang Tian was deeply satisfied, immediately ordered the whole army to return to the capital from Wuyuan County.

A few days later, the Xuanlong army had rushed to Pinggao County, and the two hundred people behind had also caught up, and nearly 10,000 state soldiers had gathered here, and Daxi Changru had just arrived, and he really let these state soldiers rush more than 500 miles in four days.

When he arrived in Pinggao County, the news of Emperor Tianyuan's death had come, Yang Jian was the prime minister, and all the military news inside and outside the governor also arrived, and everyone looked at Yang Tian differently.

Yang Tian was a little anxious in his heart, it stands to reason that Yang Jian should not mourn secretly, and then use the emperor's order to kill those who oppose him, so that it will be a matter of course, such as as as today, as soon as the news of Emperor Yuan's death spreads, Yang Jian, the great prime minister, will suddenly sit in the crater of a volcano, and if he is not careful, he will be burned to ashes by the fire erupting from the volcano.

Although Yang Tian firmly believed that Yang Jian would succeed, because although he didn't know the process, he already knew the result, and he couldn't help but be a little frightened, Yang Jian's biggest advantage was that he occupied Chang'an, and he had the reputation of righteousness, and he originally had an advantage that he could act in the name of the emperor, but now this advantage is no longer with the mourning of Emperor Tianyuan. In the name of the little emperor alone, can the situation be stabilized.

The Xuanlong army is a man and two horses, originally came to Pinggao County, Yang Tian can return to Beijing with the state soldiers, and when tens of thousands of troops arrive in Chang'an City together, they can immediately stabilize the situation, and now he can't bear the slow march of the state soldiers, so he can only bring two thousand Xuanlong troops back first.

It's just that it's difficult for these state soldiers to be led by whom, the generals under Yang Tian are not qualified, and the others Yang Tian is not familiar with.

Originally, Da Xi Changru was a very good candidate, but Yang Tian wanted to use him to guard Pinggao County, who knows if the Turks would come to take advantage of the fire to rob after learning that the Great Zhou Emperor died, although Pinggao County is still being built, but the terrain is far more steep than Pule County, with the talent of Da Xi Changru, as long as he hands over 5,000 people, even if the Turkic army of 70,000 people comes to attack together, Yang Tian also believes that he can hold at least more than a month, and there is a month of time, and the reinforcements arrive early.
