Chapter 214: A Secret Mission
Within three days, Duan Da and Yujuluo returned to Chang'an and reported to Yang Guangyu that 237 adult males had been selected from the households of the King of Jin's Grange to serve as the guards of the King of Jin. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yang Guang was grateful for the meritorious work of the fifty Zuo Yiwei soldiers led by Yu Juluo to follow him to investigate the case, and after consulting with Li Che, Duan Da and others, Yang Guang and Li Che jointly signed a seal, asking Emperor Yang Jian to approve the approval of the 50 Zuo Yiwei forbidden army into the hussar camp of the Jin Dynasty's mansion, so that together with more than a dozen children of the family such as Yu Xiaoren and Li Hun that Yang Guang had promised them, the concubine had recruited 300 guards.
Subsequently, Yang Guangjing consulted with the three generals of the hussar battalion, conducted a preliminary test on the selected 300 people, and drew up the candidates for the commanders of each team of the hussar battalion.
General Zuo Wuwei, Shangkaifu, Yunzhou Thorn History, Li Che, Duke of Qi'an County, Commander-in-Chief of the Jin Wangfu Military, and also led the Jin Wangfu Hussar;
Zuo Wuwei left a hussar mansion chariot cavalry general, Jin Wangfu military Duan Da, and led the Jin Wangfu hussars (because Li Che led the Jin Wangfu military, in fact, Duan Da was in charge of the hussar battalion)
The Jin Wangfu led the hussars and guards, and the capital governor Yujuluo, and led the Jin Wangfu hussars;
Yu Xiaoren was the governor of the first battalion of the hussar guards of the Jin Dynasty (the first battalion was a mixed cavalry and archery battalion, equipped with 50 cavalry and 50 archers);
Xian Yuluo is a general of the first battalion of hussar guards of the Jin Dynasty;
Li Hun was the governor of the second battalion of the hussar guards of the Jin Dynasty; (The second battalion is a mixed battalion of vehicles and archery, equipped with 20 combat vehicles and 50 archers)
Pei Qiantong was the governor of the three battalions of the hussar guards of the Jin Dynasty (the three battalions were all infantry).
Among the three battalions of hussars, only Pei Qiantong, the commander of the three battalions, was a Bai Ding and a subordinate selected by Duan Da and Yu Juluo from the households of Yang Guangtianzhuang, and temporarily led the three battalions with 100 infantry troops in the name of the governor.
The reason why he chose a general from among the Grange households was mostly from Li Che's idea. Li Che believed that only in this way could most of the sergeants from the families of the hussar battalion be inspired to swear allegiance to Yang Guang and set an example for everyone to make meritorious contributions.
In the end, it was determined that Pei Qiantong would serve as the commander of the three battalions, half of which was because Pei Qiantong had martial arts and was the best among the more than 200 selected Ding Zhuang, and the other half was due to Yu Zan's recommendation, according to Yu Zan's report to Yang Guang, 20 days ago, it was this Pei Qiantong who led dozens of Zhuang Ding to light dozens of bonfires in the fields in the middle of the night, and cooperated with Yang Su to quell the rebellion in Huazhou, and Pei Qiantong also led people to capture a number of Erzhu Ji's personal soldiers who escaped from the Huazhou military workshop at dawn the next day. It can be said that he once made a military exploit.
Now that the 300 hussar battalion had been formed, Li Che ordered the two generals Duan Da and Yu Juluo to lead all the sergeants to start daily drills of the phalanx formation of Yang Su's mixed cavalry and archery vehicles, in the hope that the hussar battalion could form combat strength as soon as possible.
On the second day after the hussar battalion was formed into an army and officially began to enter the drill state, Zhang Xutuo, who was sent by Yang Guang to squat to capture the red sleeves, suddenly returned to the Jin Palace.
To say, there is no one in this world who is as dead-eyed as Zhang Xutuo. Ten days ago, Yang Guang ordered him to quietly lurk near the house where Yujuluo and Sleeve Hong lived together, squatting and waiting, but it was just a move to make up for the loss, and he didn't have much hope that he would be able to guard Sleeve Red and come back. For more than ten days, he was alone outside the small courtyard near the Great Solemn Temple, eating only one meal a day, from morning to night, he didn't even dare to sleep, and stared at the movement in the small courtyard with all his attention.
It wasn't until Xian Yuluo saw that the three hundred sergeants in the hussar camp had been recruited and were about to start practicing the formation, and out of kindness, he sneaked out of the mansion to reveal the news to Zhang Xutuo, that Zhang Xutuo entrusted Xian Yuluo to stay in place for himself to continue to stare at the small courtyard, and he hurriedly rushed back to the Jin Palace's mansion to see Yang Guang, and asked to be incorporated into the hussar camp, so that he could get the opportunity to go out of the town and state with Yang Guang and make contributions to the battle.
Yang Guang met Zhang Xutuo alone in the main hall, and after hearing that he had hardly eaten or slept for more than ten days, he stared at the small courtyard where Yujuluo and Sleeve Hong lived together, but he still found nothing, seeing that Zhang Xutuo's ears and sideburns were slightly stained with a few fallen leaves, and he looked embarrassed, Yang Guang's heart softened.
"This king has long said to Xian Yu Luoti that your army is still in the reserve mansion under the leadership of the left and right leaders, and you are serving as a guard in the forbidden palace, and you will be transferred to the hussar camp in this king's palace, but I am afraid that there will be more trouble than others." Yang Guang instructed Zhang Xutuo to sit down at the bottom, and said to him in a deep voice.
"The small one is sincere, and he wants to follow the prince to fight on the battlefield and make contributions, and please ask the prince to complete everything." Zhang Xutuo was also really anxious, and when he spoke, he knelt down at Yang Guang with a plop, and couldn't say anything else, so he just kowtowed blindly and begged Yang Guang to accept him as a guard.
"Okay then." Yang Guang really couldn't bear to look at it, so he opened his mouth and agreed, "Fortunately, you originally followed this king to investigate the case, and this king mentioned it in front of his father, and there is a reason." However, whether this matter is successful or not is not entirely up to the king, and whether you can fulfill your wish in the future is still between the two. You need to be prepared for this. ”
"I, I am willing to sacrifice myself as a slave and be a part of the prince, and I will go north with the prince." Zhang Xutuo was honest, he really couldn't listen to Yang Guang only talking to him, and in a hurry, he actually said that he was willing to sell himself to become Yang Guang's slave and subordinate, and he would also follow him out of the town and the state.
Yang Guang was finally moved by Zhang Xutuo's sincere heart, although he knew that recruiting Zhang Xutuo into the hussar camp would be a lot of trouble, he couldn't help but say angrily: "It's rare to have a person as determined as you, this king will temporarily promise you today, when this king leaves Beijing and leaves the town, he will definitely take you with him." ”
Zhang Xutuo raised his head excitedly, wiped a handful of tears, choked up and said, "Thank you Wangye, thank you Wangye." "Still can't say anything more.
"There is no need to go to the Great Solemn Temple." Yang Guang ordered Zhang Xutuo to stand up and instructed him, "You don't need to follow the others to practice the formation, before this king is allowed to leave the capital and leave the town, there is a separate mission to be handed over to you." If you can do it, it will not be difficult for this king to make you the commander of the hussar battalion. Would you like to do it? ”
"Yes, yes, please give the prince's order." Zhang Xutuo stood up, a few tears still hanging on his red face, and answered without hesitation.
"From today onwards, you will keep an eye on the Shuguo Mansion for this king, and record all the people who enter and go to and from the Shu Guogong every day, and report to me when you return to the mansion the next day." Yang Guang stared at Zhang Xutuo with both eyes, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
