On the twentieth day of the twelfth year of Shu Guangzheng. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The Baoning army remained in Qinzhou and joined forces with Gao Yanshou's Xiongwu army. Gao Yanshou and Zhao Li have been ordered by the emperor to accept the adaptation of the crown prince Meng Xuanjue.
Gao Yanshou is not greedy for power, he is loyal to Shu, and he doesn't care if he is a festival envoy, he only cares about whether Shu is strong, as for Zhao Li's Baoning army, it is an army controlled by Meng Chang himself, and Zhao Li is just a nominal Baoning festival envoy.
Now there are more than 30,000 people in the Baoning Army, plus 50,000 people in the Xiongwu Army, and more than 80,000 people are stationed in Qinzhou, and in the camp of the Chinese army, Gao Yanshou and Zhao Li and other generals are waiting for Meng Xuanjue's arrival.
After two days of hard work, Meng Xuanjue watched coldly as team after team of soldiers accepted his own review under the leadership of the general.
These soldiers who can be pulled out to fight are neatly clothed and armored, the weapons in their hands are also very sharp, and the beating war drums are also majestic, but when Meng Xuanjue took a closer look, he suddenly stretched the company, the Xiongwu Army is okay, as a border army, it often fights, but the Baoning Army guards the Beijing Division, which is a big disappointment.
"How old are you?" Meng Xuanjue slowly stepped forward and asked sharply.
"Hey, Your Highness, your subordinate is thirty-five years old this Chinese New Year's Eve?" The soldier who was asked by Meng Xuanjue said in a hurry.
Meng Xuanjue's face turned blue, "Hmph, thirty-five, this palace sees that you are not less than fifty, can you also be a soldier?" Zhao Li, this is the soldier guarding the Beijing Division? β
Zhao Li was already trembling, and at this moment, Meng Xuanjue asked sharply, which made him have nothing to say, so he had to kneel on one knee and be silent.
Meng Xuanjue knew that Zhao Li was not to blame, but he was in an uncomfortable mood, such soldiers, their eyes were wandering, they didn't dare to look directly at themselves, a ruffian, most people looked at the five big and three thick, and they were also majestic, but when they started a battle, they were afraid that they would either be the generals who ran away, or the retreating vanguards, and they were expected to fight bloodily and move forward bravely, it was better to pull some bloody people to be reliable.
Back at the big tent, Meng Xuanjue immediately ordered, "All soldiers over the age of forty will return to their hometowns." β
Afterwards, Meng Xuanjue continued: "Set up the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, the palace is personally appointed as the Metropolitan Governor, the Left Governor Gao Yanshou, the Right Governor Zhao Li, and the Governor Tongzhi Yu Wenzheng. Yang Ye was ordered to be the chief military officer of Qinzhou, Fengzhou and Yuanzhou three towns, Wang Zhaoyuan was the general of Qinzhou, Zhao Yantao was the general of Fengzhou, and Luo Ji was the general of Yuanzhou. β
"Yes, the ministers obey."

Two days later, on the school ground, in addition to Meng Xuanjue's personal guards, there were dozens of people standing in the audience, including Yang Ye, the chief military officer, the generals of various towns, and guerrilla generals, all of which were carefully selected by Yang Ye, as for the original old man, as long as Yang Ye didn't want it, then Meng Xuanjue would let them go back to Beijing to retire.
Meng Xuanjue came to the front of the stage, raised his hand, looked around coldly, and asked, "Who are you serving in the army?" Fight for whom? β
For whom? Fight for whom?
These two questions were like two muffled thunderbolts, slamming heavily on everyone's appreciation, and no one spoke for a while.
After a long time, a guerrilla general said with some hesitation: "My subordinates joined the army at that time to feed their stomachs, and they had food and salary in the armyγγγ and they could also supplement their families. This one.... β
This reason is very simple and funny, but as soon as he said this, he got most of the heads, and many people nodded in agreement.
Meng Xuanjue sneered: "In your words, you joined the army for your own survival, so that you can live, for your parents and family, yes or no?" β
Everyone heard the disdain in His Royal Highness the Prince's heart, but when it was so, they all nodded silently.
"Hmph, no interest, no ambition, the world is constantly strife, the Han family is broken, and Shenzhou is in trouble, the real soldier is to end this troubled world, become a hero to save the people of Dawn, and capture the flag on the battlefield, I promote you to train you well, so that you can glorify your ancestors, become heroes, and become famous generals in history."
Meng Xuanjue said this, and the eyes of the people in the audience, including Gao Yanshou and Zhao Li, were full of enthusiasm. They all knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already demonstrated his ability, and he had also promoted himself at this moment, so they couldn't help but get excited, and they were all excited when they looked at Meng Xuanjue's eyes.
Gao Yanshou benefited from Meng Xuanjue and saw his strategy, and from that time on, he believed that Meng Xuanjue would definitely be able to change the fate of Shu.
took a step forward, then turned to Meng Xuanjue, his face was full of seriousness, he knelt on his knees, hugged his fists and said: "Gao Yanshou is willing to do his best to be used by the prince, and in his lifetime, he will swear allegiance to the prince." β
Dozens of people in the audience suddenly fell to their knees, "We are willing to follow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and swear allegiance to His Highness." β
"Okay, from today onwards, you will be trained by the general soldier Yang Ye, remember, unconditional and absolute obedience to any of my orders, my first order is, whether you are Yang Ye's superior or subordinate, at this moment he is your superior, I don't want to hear about your yang and yin, Yang Ye, I will teach you the method of military training."
Meng Xuanjue's method of military training is actually very simple, that is, it combines the training of modern soldiers, first of all, physical training, running, squatting, frog jumping, and sit-ups. And a team of ten people, one person did not finish, the whole team was punished, Yang Ye asked him why, Meng Xuanjue told him: "What I want is not a simple person, but collective combat effectiveness, on the battlefield, do not know how to cooperate with each other, do not know how to work together, then there is only one result, that is, to be killed by the enemy, the life of a brother is my own life." β
Three days later, Meng Xuanjue was ready to return to Beijing, and this year was the first New Year he had come to this era, and of course he had to spend it with his family.
"Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely implement your reorganization plan, this army will always be loyal to you, and the direction your long sword points in is the direction we are heading." Yang Ye said with a swear to bid farewell to Meng Xuanjue.
Meng Xuanjue looked at this person who was praised in later generations, and couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, being able to get Yang Ye's escort was his biggest reliance, "This palace believes in you, you boldly go on an errand, this palace will support you." β
"Your Highness, it's time to go." Gao Yanshou walked over slowly and said in a low voice.
Now although Gao Yanshou and Zhao Li have gone up in rank, they no longer have real power, and they will follow Meng Xuanjue back to Beijing this time. Meng Xuanjue slowly walked into the carriage, and hundreds of guards escorted the prince and Gao Yanshou and others, all the way south, towards Chengdu, the capital of Shu State.
