Chapter 205: Public Sacrifice

In any era, wine and sex are the best link of communication between men, and in the face of these iron-clad men, Li Xingzhi did not put on a shelf at Penglaibo, because everyone here is worthy of his deep friendship.

"Li Shuai, our brothers have been coming to Dengzhou for several days, I don't know how Li Shuai will settle me?"

"Yes, Li Shuai, the brothers eat and sleep in the barracks every day, sleep and eat, and they are almost idle."

After a few glasses of wine, Li Xingzhi didn't have a stand, and Zhang Wu and Pan Xuezhong and other Dongjiang army generals obviously let go a lot.

Li Xingzhi said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, my Jingbei Army currently has a total of 20,000 infantry in four towns, and there is still a shortage of 2,000 people. ”

"Ugh!"

On the way to Dengzhou, Li Xingzhi had already had a thorough understanding of the situation of the Dongjiang Army generals who came to vote.

Zhang Wu, Pan Xuezhong, Ouyang Sheng and others glanced at each other in surprise, the dispersal and reorganization of the troops was originally the proper meaning of the question, but the price that Li Xingzhi opened was far beyond their imagination.

In the past few days, they have been in Dengzhou, and they have some understanding of the establishment of the Jingbei Army, there are 5,000 soldiers in a town, and the military salary treatment is also the best among the military towns in the Ming Dynasty, and the reward is also a lot in peacetime.

According to their estimates, they can get a team officer or deputy team officer at most, after all, the establishment of other people is there.

"Li Shuai, this town general, I'm afraid the last general can't afford it!"

Zhang Wu bowed down violently, and Pan Xuezhong and others also bowed down.

"Your loyalty, the soldiers and civilians of my Leiden Town, the soldiers and civilians of the world are obvious to all, this commander believes that since you can be loyal to the Dongjiang River desperately, you will naturally be loyal to my Jingbei army, this commander is convinced of this."

This time Li Xingzhi calmly accepted the military salute of Zhang Wu and others, in this era of paying attention to the etiquette and humility of the upper and lower levels, if you are too polite, it will make these Dongjiang generals who have just come to vote worry in their hearts.

According to Li Xingzhi's intentions, Zhang Wu was appointed as the general of the fifth town of the Jingbei Army, and Shen Yongzhen, Ouyang Sheng, Pan Xuezhong and others would all serve in the fifth town.

Li Xingzhi wanted to use generous conditions to tell those Dongjiang Army or sea bandits who had not yet landed that defecting to the Jingbei Army was their only way out.

"Dashuai, I don't want to enter the fifth town, I want to go to Shuishi Town, even if I am a team officer, give me a dozen boats, I want to go to Liaodong to avenge my father."

Pan Xuezhong did not get up, but fell to the ground heavily.

"General Pan, do you know the tactics of the sailors?"

At present, there are not many talents in the Jingbei Army who are familiar with water warfare, and Pan Xuezhong's words made Li Xing's heart move.

"Dashuai, in Phi Dao, the last general of the Dongjiang Town Water Division has also commanded a few times, although he is not proficient, but he will not be worse than many people."

"In this way, after the public sacrifice, you will go to the Sailor Town to report, and first familiarize yourself with our Sailor warship, and the commander will have his own arrangements."

Eggs can't be put in one basket, the Jingbei Army knows only one Su Guodong, and the rest of the low-level generals are all Su Guodong's henchmen, and the corresponding people are placed in to prevent one family from becoming dominant.

During the Qingming season, it rains,

Pedestrians on the road want to break their souls.

In the blink of an eye, the public memorial day of the Qingming Festival has come.

According to Li Xingzhi's order, the second, third, and fourth towns of the Jingbei Army transferred to Dengzhou, as well as the newly formed fifth town and the Green Banner soldiers, except for the soldiers and horses defending the city, all went to Danya Mountain to participate in the public sacrifice.

Of course, in order to make this public memorial look grand and formal, the small family of King De and the small family of Yansheng Gongjia, who were under house arrest in Penglai Pavilion of Danya Mountain, were invited by Li Xingzhi to the newly built Loyal Martyrs' Monument.

Since the Jingbei Army left Gaoyang, there have been more than 10,000 war dead and dead families, and most people here have not had time to bury them, and there are only nearly 1,000 soldiers who died in the battle of Laizhou in Danya Mountain

In front of the dense tomb is the martyr's monument built by Song Guangkun, the order of Li Xing.

This time, Li Xingzhi worshiped the heroic soul and mobilized nearly 20,000 horsemen, all of whom wore black armor and wrapped a snow-white filial piety belt, arranged in a neat phalanx, and arranged in the open space in front of the martyr's monument.

The huge momentum of the Jingbei Army made countless people in Dengzhou City who went out of the city to sweep the tombs stop and watch, and the entire northern foot of Danya Mountain was surrounded by people who were watching.

Li Xingzhi brought all civil and military officials such as Zhu Youshu, the king of Germany, and Kong Yinzhi, the prince of Yansheng, to the scene.

After Li Bangjie took a few guards to offer incense and candle offerings, Kong Yinzhi, the Yansheng Gong who was in charge of the memorial ceremony, walked out of the queue and shouted.

"The sacrifice begins."

Li Xingzhi immediately led all the officers and soldiers to bow down in front of the Martyrs' Monument.

Kong Yinzhi, the Holy Father of Yan, unfurled the sacrificial text in his hand and read aloud: "Towering Shenzhou, Yan Huang Zhaozao." Jianji Kaiyuan, Ze was deserted, the civilization is brilliant, and it has a long history! Salty is served all over the world, and virtue is Wanbang. The former Mengyuan invaded, the sea sank, and now there is the trouble of the East captives, the soldiers are everywhere, and the Hu cavalry flies between, how many people are killed in the Chinese military and civilians? ”

"The Jingbei Army started in Gaoyang, with the atmosphere of the Qing Liaozuo as its responsibility, but I am willing to turn the bloody land into a place of string songs, people with lofty ideals, fighting forward, although there is no regret in death, then there is the victory of Gaoyang, the victory of Laizhou, now I would like to list the list of victims on the martyr's monument, four o'clock to worship, Fu Wei is still feasting!"

Kong Yinzhi deserves to often preside over sacrifices, and when the sacrificial text is finished, the incense in the incense burner is also burned out, so he shouted: "The ceremony is completed!" ”

Li Xingzhi Huo Ran got up, turned his head to look at the nearly 20,000 soldiers under the Loyal Martyrs' Monument, drew his sword and shouted: "Soldiers:" Since the rampant rebellion of Jiannu, Liaodong has fallen, Yidi regards my Han people as dogs and sheep, so there is a big handsome Mao, Lu Duchen is indomitable, for my Han family in the world, one after another, fighting to the death, how can there be hundreds of thousands of victims, although Xingzhi is not talented, but he is willing to attach to the tail Ji, and he has taken the extermination of Dongyu as his responsibility, and you can help me succeed. ”

"I'm willing to die for the handsome!"

In front of the Martyrs' Monument, Yang Biao and Li Rui waved their fists and shouted loudly.

"I'm willing to die for the handsome......

This is the voice of Zhang Shaoqian, Lang Shaozhen, Song Guangkun, Li Youcai and other civil and military officials.

"I'm willing to die for the handsome......,......!"

Nearly 20,000 soldiers under the martyr's monument responded in unison, and the earth-shattering shouts shook the heavens and the earth.

"Stop!"

Li Xingzhi's hands pressed weakly.

The earth-shattering shouts came to an abrupt end.

"In the past, we didn't have a stable territory, and the soldiers who died were not restrained at all, this is Ben Shuai is sorry for them, but you can rest assured, from now on, we have a home, Leyden is our home, Ben Shuai wants to let you have something to support the old, little to rely on, and no worries, that is, the soldiers who died, Ben Shuai will also bring them back completely, and bury them after this loyal martyr's monument, if Ben Shuai dies in battle, you also have to bring Ben Shuai back, you remember, my Jingbei Army will never abandon a brother."
