Chapter 211: Rebellion
In late autumn, when the wild animals are fat, it is a good time for hunting. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After a few days of preparation, Jia Lian had everything in order, and specially left Ni Er to be responsible for guarding the safety of Rongguo Mansion.
Early this morning, as one of the emperor's hand-picked guards, Jia Lian gathered the soldiers of the five battalions of the Beijing camp, and then guarded the emperor's dragon and slowly went to the iron network mountain.
It was rare for the people of Kyoto to see such a majestic procession, and they all watched from the road, and Zhang Chang and Jia Huan followed Jia Lian on horseback.
Now that Jia Huan has become the captain of the first battalion, Jia Lian's care is inevitably indispensable, but it is also related to his own efforts.
At this time, I only heard Zhang Chang ask in a low voice: "My lord, Long Xiangwei has always been the internal guard of the palace, and they have always been responsible for the royal family's travel, how can the emperor let me wait for the Beijing camp and Long Xiangwei to serve as the defense of this hunt together?" ”
Jia Lian grabbed the reins, looked at the team walking slowly beside him, smiled coldly, and said: "The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, so let the brothers pay attention to it, especially the Shenji Battalion, where firearms and materials are strictly guarded, and there are at least three or more sergeants going out to perform tasks." ”
"Yes! The subordinate went to instruct again. After Jia Huan replied with his fists clenched, he turned his horse's head and galloped away.
Looking at Jia Huan's back, Jia Lian said to himself: "I had the intention to illuminate the moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch." ”……
Hunting is one of the earliest livelihood skills mastered by human beings, and it is recorded in the "Zhou Li" that the king's four seasons of field hunting, respectively, are called spring search, summer seedling, autumn hunting, and winter hunting, and the field hunting as a ritual was inherited by later rulers.
With the development of human civilization, hunting has gradually taken on the multiple properties of entertainment, military and sports, and has become a collective comprehensive sport for military training, physical fitness, invigorating spirits and seeking harvests.
The royal family of the Celestial Empire immediately seized the world, and now although it has dominated the world, there are still barbarians in the Quartet from time to time.
In order to prevent future generations from coveting comfort and abandoning riding and shooting, the royal family of the Celestial Empire has to carry out one or two major hunting activities every year, in order to achieve the hardship of the royal children not forgetting the ancestors and immediately seizing the world!
Since this hunt is so high, the camp of the temporary buildings on the iron net mountain is naturally like a regular military camp, not only the antlers outside are complete, but the entire camp is also surrounded by a fence more than one person high, with open and dark sentries, and there are soldiers patrolling non-stop.
The camp is also lined up according to the formation, and the middle is naturally the emperor's temporary palace, where the defense can be said to be three steps, one sentry, five steps and one post; Further out, it is according to the level of the official position of the driver, one tent by one, tent by tent, until the outermost four directions, southeast, northwest and northwest, are the four large barracks of Long Xiangwei and the five battalions of the Beijing camp.
Because in the past two years, the Battle of Tubo and the Battle of Nanban in the Celestial Empire ended in great victories, so that not only Jia Lian and other meritorious officials rose step by step; And the most profitable is the current emperor of the Celestial Dynasty himself, who has endured his anger for many years, and now he is proud of himself, and his interest in this hunt is also very high.
Since the second day of the hunt, the emperor not only set an example by himself and personally bent the bow and archery, but also showed his skills in the royal family and the ministers of civil and military affairs.
The Iron Net Mountain generation was originally a royal hunting garden, there were originally many wild beasts here, and there were soldiers riding horses in all directions to concentrate the prey to the hunting ground, so since the emperor down, all of them have gained a lot.
On the contrary, although Jia Lian was also holding a bow and arrows, following the emperor behind, occasionally a prey fled to him, and hurriedly pulled his bow to shoot, but the strength of the head was too poor, which caused a lot of jokes.
After seven days in a row, the hunt finally came to an end, and the emperor, the ministers of civil and military affairs, and the nobles of the kings and grandchildren were interested, and they only stayed in this iron net mountain for the last night, and returned to Beijing tomorrow.
However, this night is destined to be an uneven night.
In the middle of the night, in Jia Lian's tent, Jia Lian, Jia Huan and Zhang Chang and Wang Hu were not asleep, but they were all draped and sat together with solemn expressions, but no one spoke, as if they were quietly waiting for something.
Suddenly, I only heard a faint noise from the north of the camp.
Jia Lian's pupils contracted suddenly, he turned his head to look outside in shock, and then got up suddenly, while Jia Huan, Zhang Chang, and Wang Hu also changed color suddenly, and strode towards the outside of the account together.
Lifting the curtain, the four of them saw that the shouts from the north were getting stronger and stronger, and after a while, they even began to see a fire shining in the sky!
And the shouting gradually became clearer, and the sound of killing shook the sky!
Jia Lian looked at the northern camp with an iron-blue face, and thought to himself: The most feared thing really happened......
"My lord, what are we going to do now?" Wang Hu, who has always been a smiling tiger, asked in a deep voice at this time.
"Who is in charge of our people in Beiying today?" Jia Lian asked.
Wang Hu immediately replied: "It's Captain Zeng Jun, who led a thousand brothers from Youye, and now it seems that he has already engaged in battle." ”
Jia Lian nodded after hearing this, and said in a condensed voice: "The matter has come to this point, it is useless to think too much, you follow me to the emperor to escort you." ”
By this time, the entire camp had become a mess, and countless accompanying princes and nobles were fleeing like headless flies.
Jia Lian didn't look at these chaotic conditions, and stayed outside the big tent for a while, and the two hundred guards scattered in the surrounding tents had been assembled by Zhang Chang, and then followed Jia Lian to the emperor's temporary line.
Along the way, there were also many civil and military ministers like Jia Lian, who brought their own personal guards to the Zhongda camp.
It's just that Jia Lian has the most troops and the most military resources, so he has become the temporary commander of the same team.
Jia Lian's official residence was not too far from the emperor's temporary residence, so when Jia Lian led two hundred personal guards, as well as the ministers of civil and military affairs who met on the road and his subordinates, they rushed to a hundred steps away from the holy car, they were stopped by the guards of the royal guards.
After seeing that it was Jia Lian and his party, he intercepted the Imperial Forest Army and quickly went back to report, and it didn't take long for a middle-aged general with armor all over his body to gallop on horseback.
The galloping horse was strangled in front of Jia Lian's horse's head, and the middle-aged general on the horse saluted Jia Huan with a fist, and said in a deep voice: "The last general, the left commander of the Imperial Forest Army, is fierce, I have seen Rong Guogong, and I have seen all my lords. ”
The left commander of the Imperial Forest Army is fierce, and Jia Lian naturally knows it, and he is a trusted person of the emperor's first class, so he also nodded immediately and asked, "Commander Li, where is Your Majesty?" ”
Li Meng replied: "Your Majesty is in the Emperor's Tent, Grandpa Guo, you are the first batch of people to come to escort you, and the last general has been ordered by the Emperor, please enter the Emperor and all your lords." ”
