Chapter 164: Follow-up

Although the whole military parade lasted for a short time, the effect was indeed obvious, and after this military parade, the people's hearts of the Tang State were completely united. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although there have been auspicious fortunes from the sky before, and the people's hearts have been attached, but after all, it is too illusory, like a castle in the air, after all, there is no hard power display that is more shocking, especially for some people, showing muscles is more frightening than the so-called miracles.

Zhang Yan, who was beside Zhang Zai, was secretly relieved in his heart, although he swore that it was his original intention to take refuge in Tang Guo, in fact, it was just forced by the situation and he could only take refuge in Tang Guo, but he didn't understand the power of Tang Guo at all.

After this military parade, Zhang Yan also had a preliminary understanding of Zhang Zai's strength, and the worries in his heart were completely put down, just looking at the few troops just now, the shock to him was too great, no matter which one it was, all of them were elite divisions, even if Zhang Zai's other troops only had half of their combat strength, there was no problem in resisting Yuan Shao.

The parade is over, and the venue is over, but Zhang Zai and they have no intention of leaving completely, and after the ceremony, they will canonize the ministers.

Zhang Zai went down to the city, specially ordered Zhang Yan to accompany him, and asked casually: "Feiyan, how are these armies compared to Yuan Benchu's army?" ”

Zhang Yan was shocked in his heart, could it be that he saw something, but now that Zhang Yan has returned to his heart, he did not hide his thoughts: "The king's armies can be called rare opponents, all of them are the elite of one as ten, or even as a hundred, except for the halberd warrior and the first dead soldier in Yuan Benchu's hands, there is no team that has always been their opponent." ”

"That's right, Feiyan, after today, you take your troops to the new barracks, where someone will reselect soldiers, so you will stay in it with your troops for a while."

"No!"

Zhang Yan replied with some reluctance.

Zhang Zai also saw his emotions, patted him on the shoulder, and said softly: "Don't worry, train hard, since you have joined the Tang Kingdom, you might as well tell you that the Tang Kingdom will use troops against the Jin Kingdom soon, so you will be used soon." ”

"Do as the king commands!"

Hearing Zhang Zai's words, Zhang Yan finally had some confidence in her heart, bowed down, and then followed Zhang Zai to continue to the palace.

After Zhang Zai left, the people outside the city were unwilling to leave, this was a grand event in their Tang Kingdom, and now they have seen an invincible army and an enlightened monarch, if they don't vent, how can they have feelings in their hearts.

Just after Zhang Zai got down the city tower, the people outside the city suddenly shouted loudly: "Long live King Tang!" ”

The sound was endless, and when Zhang Zai entered the palace, he could still hear the shouts outside the city.

"The king is in court, and the ministers are here!"

In the palace, a sharp voice came out, and the ministers walked in a queue to the palace.

"Greetings to the King!"

Seeing that the ministers had arrived at their respective positions, the eunuch on the side turned around and said to the side.

"Greetings to the King!"

The ministers bowed.

At this time, Zhang Zaifang slowly walked out from behind the screen, looking at the kneeling officials, Zhang Zaifang first sat on the dragon chair, and then stretched out his hand to support him, and said: "Zhongqing is flat!" ”

"King Xie!"

The canonization ceremony was very simple, but very solemn, and the eunuch on the side took out the holy decree that had been prepared and read it according to the script.

However, Zhang Zai changed the format of the holy decree and adopted the eight-character beginning of "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict" that was widely circulated in later generations.

After the hundred officials were sealed, the next thing was the feast, which was also the last item of the founding of the country.

"Today's founding of the country is a celebration of the whole world, and if you don't get drunk, you won't return!"

On that day, all the ministers and officials of the Tang State were drunk.

And at the same time as Zhang Zai, there was also Li Dao, who took Chang'an as the capital, and even established the Qin State in the name of Qin.

At this point, the world has been divided, and one emperor and ten kings have officially reproduced the prelude to the Warring States of the past.

Zhang Zai's founding of the country, the momentum is extraordinary, the preparation time is the longest, naturally there are countless countries concerned, just after the end of Zhang Zai's founding of the country, the spies of various countries immediately sent Zhang Zai's information to their own countries.

The lords of the countries who received the information were disdainful of the miracles on the intelligence, thinking that Zhang Zai was just playing tricks and some small tricks, and they didn't care, but the intelligence said that Zhang Yan of Montenegro defected to the Tang State, as well as the heavy cavalry and heavy infantry under Zhang Zai's command, they were quite interested.

As a result, the masses rushed to imitate Zhang Zai, established heavy infantry and heavy cavalry battalions, and a wave of equipment competitions in disguise quietly unfolded in various countries.

Youzhou, Xue Rengui.

Now, they have resisted Yan Liang's attack for more than ten days in a row, and the equipment, grain and grass have been consumed very much, and Xue Rengui has already had the idea of asking Zhang Zai to send troops to support.

After more than ten days of fierce battles, no matter how strong Xue Rengui's ability is, after all, he is also a human being, and he will be tired, and he does not have many soldiers and horses under him, and he can't replenish them in time, so he has lost nearly 10,000 so far.

On the other hand, Yan Liang has a steady stream of reinforcements, and now the troops in his hands have reached 150,000, and with the help of Zhang He and Ju Yi, he can only rely on the terrain to defend it.

Xue Rengui's camp.

At this time, Tian Yu was also bloodstained, as if he had just come down from the battlefield, took a breath, and bowed to Xue Rengui: "General, ask the king for help, it seems that the Jin Kingdom is planning to completely pull out our nail." ”

Xue Rengui nodded, originally, he and Yan Liang had a good fight, and both sides won or lost, but they didn't expect it. In the past few days, Yan Liang suddenly had a large number of reinforcements arrive, and he was unable to retreat with insufficient troops, and now he has lost most of the upper valley.

"With the current situation, how long can we hold out?"

"If the Jin State no longer sends reinforcements, we will retreat to Juyong Pass for a year at most, but looking at their posture, I am afraid we will not give up this opportunity easily." Tian Yu was a little hesitant, so far, they hadn't seen Tian Feng, not even Frustrated, he was really worried that Tian Feng would have some strategy against them.

Now, they are Zhang Zai's only hope for entering the Jin Kingdom, and death is a small matter, and losing it is a big matter.

"It seems that I can only retreat to Juyong Pass, and then ask for help, I really hope that the king can send troops as soon as possible." Xue Rengui also knows the importance of Juyong Pass, as long as he can hold the pass, even if it is a big price, he will do it.

"This battle is really embarrassing!" Xue Rengui slapped the table hard, startling Tian Yu.

"I also hope that the general will focus on the overall situation." Tian Yu hurriedly persuaded.

After getting along for these days, he has a tacit understanding with Xue Rengui, and he also understands his ability, which can be called a generation of famous generals, but he seems to be a little ruthless to foreign races.

A few days ago, before Yan Liang had increased his troops, Xue Rengui raided a large camp of Yan Liang, which was full of foreign races, but in that battle, there was no one alive.

However, Tian Yu is not a corrupt Confucian, and his attitude towards foreign races is also very tough, especially in this period, he has no objections.
