Chapter 136: The First Expedition

The military situation was urgent, and Li Shimin was summoned to report to General Zuotunwei's mansion.

Li Shimin immediately dressed in military uniform and went to the Zuotunwei General's Mansion to meet Zuotunwei General Yun Dingxing.

Yun Dingxing used to be the captain of the guard, and he was Li Yuan's predecessor, and he had always had a very good relationship with Li Yuan, and he was also very familiar with Li Shimin.

Yun Dingxing told Li Shimin that the Supreme Emperor was besieged by the Turks in Yanmen, and sent soldiers from all over the world to Yanmen to rescue. The soldiers under the Zuotunwei General's Mansion will be ordered at the school field in the east of the city tomorrow, and each of them will prepare their own ordnance and equipment, and the army will set off in three days.

------

It turned out that Yang Guang inspected Beisai in early August.

The Turkic Shibi Khan led more than 100,000 cavalry and planned to attack the chariot of the Great Sui Emperor Yang Guang. Princess Yicheng sent a messenger to report to Yang Guang that something had happened.

In mid-August, in order to avoid Bi Khan's sneak attack, Yang Guang's car quickly galloped into Yanmen City to defend itself. Yang Hui, the king of Qi, led the rear army into Lao County.

Subsequently, the Turkic army surrounded Yanmen, and the Sui army was terrified and terrified, demolished the houses used as materials to defend the city, and swore to defend Yanmen City to the death.

There were 150,000 soldiers and civilians in the city, and there was only enough food for 20 days.

Of the 41 cities in Yanmen County, the Turkic army has broken through 39 of them, and only Yanmen and Lao County have not been captured.

------

Yang Guang personally inspected the army, and he encouraged the soldiers, "You and others work hard to fight against the Turkic bandits, and if you can win and return, those who have meritorious service in defending the city, and those who have no officials, will be directly sealed with six grades, and given a hundred pieces of brocade; Those who have officials will be added to the ranks."

Yang Guang sent people from time to time to comfort the soldiers who defended the city, and under his encouragement, the soldiers swore to defend the city to the death, and resisted the siege of the Turkic army day and night.

The Turks are good at cavalry shooting, and the siege is their shortcoming, coupled with the defense of the city soldiers swearing to resist to the death, Yanmen City can not be attacked for a long time.

While sticking to Yanmen, Yang Guang issued an edict and ordered the soldiers of the world to rush to Yanmen to rescue, and sent several light horsemen to break through and send letters to the outside.

Messengers were everywhere, and county commanders from all over the country were summoned to prepare for the rescue.

Yun Dingxing, the general of the Tun Guard, received the edict and immediately ordered the troops to reorganize and prepare to go on the expedition.

------

When Guanyin heard that General Zuotunwei's mansion had recruited Li Shimin, she began to worry in her heart, and she was most afraid that he would be sent to fight a war.

Soldiers, a matter of life and death, should not be regarded as child's play. Throughout the ages, countless young and strong men have stained the battlefield with blood, died generously, and never returned. When the imperial court conquered Liaodong for the second time, more than 300,000 Sui troops crossed Liao, and only 2,700 people fled back after defeat.

After Li Shimin left, Guanyin waited anxiously in the room, wanting to know what was going on in the Tunwei General's Mansion as soon as possible.

------

Li Shimin said goodbye to Yun Dingxing and returned to the Tang State Mansion.

When Guanyin saw Li Shimin coming back, she couldn't wait to ask him, "Are you going to be recruited to fight?"

Li Shimin was not in a hurry, and he was not in a hurry to answer Guanyin.

After Qin Lan served him to take off his military uniform and change into civilian clothes, Li Shimin got on the Luohan bed, sat next to Guanyin, and said to Guanyin with a smile, "I really want to go out to fight."

When Guanyin heard that she was going out to fight, her heart became even more anxious, and she urged Li Shimin,

"Tell me what's going on?"

------

Li Shimin told Guanyin that Yang Guang was besieged by the Turks in Yanmen and ordered the soldiers of the world to send troops to rescue.

After Guanyin heard this, there was ten thousand reluctance in her heart, and she was even more worried about Li Shimin's safety. The Turks have always been fierce, especially good at riding and shooting, and compared with the conquest of Liaodong, it is more dangerous.

She saw Li Shimin's relaxed face, as if she was very happy about this time, so she asked him,

"Do you think it's necessary to fight for your life for a faint monarch like Yang Guang?"

Li Shimin saw that Guanyin was worried, and smiled at Anwei,

"I'm not a fool, I have more important things to do in the future, how can I take risks?"

"I know that this expedition is a small matter of making a contribution, but it is a big matter of saving my life."

"I won't fight to the death for the sake of the high-ranking officials promised by Yang Guang."

------

Guanyin reminded Li Shimin, "We have just read "Wei Yanzi", and Brother Shimin should understand that the military order is ruthless, and he will not be forgiven if he retreats from the battle."

Li Shimin smiled at Guanyin, "I already have a plan, and Zhun Bao will not let myself enter the battle array."

Guanyin saw that Li Shimin was confident, anxious to know what he thought, and urged,

"Speak up and let me hear it."

Li Shimin asked Guanyin, "You say, among the first army, whose life is the most precious?"

Guanyin didn't even think about answering immediately, "Of course it's the commander of the first army."

Li Shimin asked again, "Does he want to find a way to protect himself?"

Guanyin said, "That's nature, even if he doesn't save Yang Guang, he won't sacrifice himself."

-----

Li Shimin stretched out his finger, gently scraped it on the bridge of Guanyin's nose, and said with a smile,

"It seems that Ah Wan is not stupid, and she can still think through these truths."

Seeing that Li Shimin was making fun of herself, Guanyin clenched her fist and slapped it on his chest, and said angrily, "I'll beat you."

Li Shimin didn't dodge, and took Guanyin in his arms.

Guanyin struggled in Li Shimin's arms and shouted, "Let go of me, I'm talking to you about business."

Li Shimin hugged him and said with a smile, "You can still talk about things like this."

------

Guanyin, a weak woman, how can she escape the control of a heroic warrior?

She had no choice but to comply, and asked Li Shimin with her face up, "Do you want to be Yun Dingxing's personal guard?"

Li Shimin smiled evilly and praised, "Those who know me, Ah Mai also."

Then, he regained his form and explained his entire plan to Guanyin in detail.

After hearing this, Guanyin's face was full of admiration, "Brother Shimin learned so fast, "The Art of War is not read in vain, you can use it now if you learn it."

------

On the same day, Guanyin prepared the outfit for Li Shimin.

Li Shimin called the scholar Lu Zheng and asked him to rush to the Li Manor in Juxian County immediately and select 200 young and strong soldiers as soldiers to accompany the army the day after tomorrow.

The Li Manor in Juxian County is the foundation of the Tang Dynasty Mansion in Gyeonggi.

Li Shimin's third sister, Li Sanniang, and her sister-in-law, Zuo Qianniu, prepared for Chai Shao, and secretly trained a team of thousands of people here, scattered in various granges, most of whom were good at riding and archery.

Therefore, Li Shimin sent Lu Zheng to select soldiers there.

He repeatedly told Lu Zheng to be carefully selected, all of them should be good at riding and archery, and all of them should be fully armed, and horses, weapons, and armor should be prepared. After all the personnel arrived, they rushed directly to the Chengdong campus before midnight the next morning.

Lu Zheng kept in mind Li Shimin's instructions and took the order to leave.

------

Early in the morning of the second day, just after the end of the day, Li Shimin finished cleaning up.

The two of them said goodbye, Guanyin repeatedly told them to pay attention to their own safety, never impulsively risk themselves, there are still big things to do in the future, don't lose big because of small things.

Li Shimin comforted Guanyin that he would act cautiously and let her not worry.

Bidding farewell to Guanyin, Li Shimin walked out of the inner courtyard quickly.

In the outer courtyard, the personal servant was already waiting in front of the hall with his horse.

Li Shimin put on armor and put on weapons.

After being fully armed, I saw that he was wearing a tiger head scarf, wearing bright light armor on the outside, and a Philippine green robe on the inside.

Carrying a bow bag and quiver, an eight-edged black gold steel lance hanging from his waist, and a snow-white Tengshuang BMW on his side.

This young general, to that station, looks majestic and heroic.

------

Li Shimin took the reins of Tengshuang's BMW from Hu Cong's hand, turned over and got on his horse, left the house from the West Corner Gate, went north to the street in front of the Suzaku Gate, and then galloped all the way to the east, and went straight to the east of the city.

In the east of the school, Lu Zheng has led 200 young cavalry to wait in front of the schoolyard.

Seeing Li Shimin, Lu Zheng reported to Li Shimin, and all the horses arrived as required, all of them were brave and good at fighting.

Li Shimin nodded calmly and ordered all the soldiers to enter the school field with him.

In the school field, military horses from all walks of life entered the field one after another.

The hour is coming, Yun Dingxing led Hu Cong to the school field and sat on the platform.

Under the inspection stage, there were more than 10,000 soldiers in the audience, only Li Shimin led all of them were cavalry, and the military appearance was neat, especially majestic and majestic. Most of the other generals were foot soldiers.

------

The Yanmen incident happened suddenly, and the military situation was urgent.

In a hurry, the whole army went to help, and the Zuotun Weifu only mustered together the strength of tens of thousands of troops, and most of them were foot soldiers, compared with the hundreds of thousands of fierce Turkic cavalry, the difference in strength was huge.

Fortunately, Yang Guang issued a rescue edict to the whole country, and it should not only be the army of General Zuotunwei's Mansion who went to help.

If only one army from the Zuotunwei General's Mansion came to help, it would be no different from a moth fighting a fire.

Yun Dingxing looked at the untidy soldiers in the audience, and he couldn't help but feel anxious, and he also thought in his heart that if he could wait for a few days, he might be able to recruit more soldiers.

But in Yanmen, the Supreme Emperor is in danger, no matter how many soldiers are gathered, the army will have to go out tomorrow.

If the emperor has been rescued by other armies by the time he arrives at Yanmen because of the conscription of soldiers, then there is no point in Zuotun Weifu's expedition.

------

The hour has arrived, the gold and drums are ringing in unison, and the audience is silent.

Military attachés above the rank of commander gathered in front of the general platform.

According to the military system of the Sui Dynasty, the Zuotunwei General's Mansion was set up:

There is one general and two generals.

There are Changshi, Sima, Lushi, Gong, Cang, Bing, Cavalry and other Cao joined the army, and Fa Cao and Kai Cao Xing joined the army, one each.

six guards on the left and right, and six on the left and right guards;

There are eight guards on the left and right, and eight guards on the left and right.

There are more than 60 military attachés from the seventh rank and above.

------

The young guards and guards are all behind the gate.

Yuwen Shu's grandson Yuwen Chengtoe and Laihu'er grandson Laijun both applied as guards from the seventh grade.

The guards on duty were ordered by Yun Dingxing, the general of the Zuo Tun Guard, to start ordering.

All those who are called are reported to their official positions and names.

When Li Shimin was called, he raised his voice to report for duty, and Li Shimin, the military guard of the right army of the Zuotun General's Mansion, listened to the general's order.

------

At this time, I heard someone in the crowd whispering,

"A milky boy who has not dried up has exchanged two thousand horses for a seven-rank martial guard."

In the words, there was obviously contempt for Li Shimin.

Li Shimin looked sideways, it was Yuwen Chengzhi and Lai Jun whispering in each other's ears.
