Chapter 599: Gift of the Sword
Chapter 599: Gift of the Sword
His judgment was indeed correct.
has been an official for many years, and he has an extraordinary tacit understanding with the officials of the court.
"Yes, yes, yes, thank you!" Pang Zhen took a quick start, led the other three people forward, knelt on the ground respectfully, and thanked Tian'en.
"Here, count your good luck this time, don't make a mistake next time, tens of thousands of miles away, we are too lazy to run. ”
The palace guard said, handing over the royal decree in his hand to Pang Zhenshu. Convey the will of the court, 100,000 urgent matters, there is no room for delay, they set off from Chang'an, but they are not light.
"Definitely!" Pang Zhenshu put Wang Zhi into his arms and clenched his fists in gratitude.
"Well, wait for the main intention to be conveyed, we have to go back to Chang'an to report. General Deng, the green mountains do not change, the green water always flows, see you next time!"
The palace guards who led the team hugged their fists to Deng Yu, said politely, turned the horse's head, flicked the horsewhip, and broke through the air like an arrow from the bow.
"Not greedy, refreshing, no careful thinking, but much easier to serve than a eunuch!"
Looking at the departing palace guards, Deng Yu thought with satisfaction. In the first two years, the eunuch passed on a will, in addition to good food and drink, but also to give hardship money, although it is not much, but think about it, a healthy person, to see the face of the crippled, anyone will feel angry.
Fortunately, two years ago, Li Tang decided to abolish the system of eunuch edicts, and at the beginning, there were still many ministers who opposed it, unanimously believing that the spread of government affairs would leak state news and bring unfavorable drawbacks.
After all, the eunuch system has existed for tens of thousands of years, and it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, making people subconsciously feel that only eunuchs are the most trusted people by the king, as ministers!
But they don't know that the eunuch system also has great drawbacks, and eunuchs have plagued the country, which has happened in many national dynasties.
Eunuchs, relatives, are always the biggest threat to imperial power.
During his reign, Li Tang deliberately weakened the rights of his relatives and eunuchs. In terms of foreign relatives, the Tang Kingdom does not yet exist, but for eunuchs, the right to convey their will is canceled first, and there is no opportunity to contact the minister, even if they want to make waves, there is no stage.
In this way, the eunuch could only stay in the palace obediently, become a rice worm to be raised, and do some simple trivial things.
But...... No one expected that the future of the Tang Kingdom, the only crisis of the country's demise, would come from this.
"The criminal general Pang Zhenru, kneel down and thank Yan for joining the army!"
Holding the royal decree, Pang Zhen led the four of them, and walked in front of Yan Zhenyong again, kneeling and bowing, which was grateful from the bottom of his heart.
They originally had the intention of death, if it weren't for Yan Zhenyong's blocking, it is estimated that at this moment, their souls would have gone to hell long ago!
"Haha, Lao Yan, my vision is still not as good as yours!"
Deng Yu also walked over and said with a loud laugh, showing a depressed expression without seeing the slightest demotion from the official.
Meritorious gold scales soar into the sky, and incompetent sick cats gnaw old food!
This sentence, I don't know who came out, but it has been widely circulated and accepted by the public.
Capable people will sooner or later gallop through the sky like golden scales, while those who don't have the ability will only be like a lazy cat, lying at home, gnawing on the old bottom, eating and waiting for death!
Is it like him, like an incompetent person?
Therefore, Deng Yu was not in a hurry or depressed at all.
It's okay to lose your position! I'll be back after two battles!
As long as you don't make a mistake, you will be executed or never hired!
"All right, get up! Son, there is still a long way to go, I hope you can restrain your temperament, always remember the top of your head, and the generals, and the law, and the duty. ”
"This time, going to the border for a hundred years is regarded as an experience, and when it is over, the road ahead will be smooth. Capable young men, waiting for the lord, the court, will not forget!"
Yan Zhenyong helped Pang Zhenru up, and his majestic face showed a touch of kindness.
He is now seventy or eighty, and there is nothing wrong with calling a young man in his thirties a child, isn't it precisely for this reason that he treats everyone in the army as a child and can't bear to die in vain?
When this southern expedition is over, we will go to the border, and after a hundred years, we will return to Chang'an with all our merits. ”
Pang Zhenfrank said loudly, not to join the army, but to call Yan Lao, full of intimacy, when speaking, he also took off his helmet, took off his black iron armor, and put his sword on the ground.
Now he is a sinner, and this armor of courage is no longer qualified to wear.
"I'll wait!"
Yan Zhenyong smiled, the white beard was blowing in the wind, and the body was pine, tall and powerful, in this trance, people had a trace of illusion, this was an old man, who was clearly guarding the border and guarding the empire.
In the heart of this old man, there is no peace in his old age, no children and grandchildren, and no half-day leisure to steal. Yes, I'm afraid that only the only thing left is to guard the empire and protect the people......
This aged body, driven by a passionate heart, exudes endless vitality......
Unconsciously, the surrounding atmosphere became magnificent, and the eyes of Pang Zhenrate and the four of them were a little red, leaving a line of tears, and they were not afraid of death, but because of the three words Yan Zhenyong said, they left tears.
Men don't flick when they have tears, but when they don't feel the truth!
"Ben will also be waiting for you, the gate of the Nakshatra Army will be open for you at any time. Deng Yu also glanced at Yan Zhenyong deeply, and then said to Pang Zhenru:
"You can unload your armor as a soldier, but a soldier can't unload a soldier! Yes, this is the spoils of war to break the evil kingdom, I will make my own decisions and give it to you, and after a hundred years, I will definitely come back alive. ”
As he spoke, Yan Zhenyong took out a war sword, which was very simple, and the sword edge was dazzling and sharp, and the word "Hongjun" came out of the hilt, shining for countless years.
This sword bears witness to an era, to witness the decline of a kingdom!
"The last general, General Xie gives the sword!"
Pang Zhen's body trembled, bent down to catch the sword, and then without looking back, he walked towards the ordinary soldier's camp on the side, from now on, at least in a hundred years, the Star Army will have one less brave general and one more ordinary soldier.
That sword, the sword given by the general, witnessed an ordinary soldier who rose in adversity, grew in blood, and grew forever in killing......
"The person who dares to slaughter millions of people is a hero, but he doesn't know what the future will be?" Looking at the back of the person in white underwear, Deng Yu said quietly.
"Whether it's a tiger or a cat, after a hundred years, we'll know. Yan Zhenyong stroked his beard and walked towards the central camp, and let out a faint laugh: "General, if you delay for a week, it's time to send troops! Otherwise, the war will not be completed, and your position as a third-grade military general may not be ......degraded enough."
The voice is full of ridicule, but it makes people's hearts tight!
The southern expedition, tens of thousands of miles of territory, they only occupied less than five minutes, if they continue to delay, within three months, I am afraid they will not be able to complete the task.
"Got it! ”
Deng Yu retracted his heart, laughed, and caught up with a relaxed pace.
An hour later, the 280,000 star army, divided into 14 routes, opened at the same time, the military flag fluttered, in an army, Pang Zhen led four people, walking behind the team, silent.
People, silent, silent, the most terrible!
The sword, into the sheath, to be unsheathed, to be amazed!
