Chapter 561: Ten Thousand Hosts
"Report, Zhang Mengzhu formed the 'Qianyuan Army', and he will go north to fight against the Beiban in a few days, and invite his colleagues in the rivers and lakes of Xuanbei to ...... together."
Riding a fast horse, galloping through the city in Taibai Mansion, causing thunderous cheers.
Hundreds of people gathered together, talking about the Beiping League with admiration on their faces.
Xuanbei Prefecture, everyone knows the Beiping League.
Everyone knows Zhang Mengzhu.
In the well-informed county capital, there are many legends about Zhang Chu......
Regardless of how the people of the rivers and lakes view the Beiping League and how they view Zhang Chu.
The people of Xuanbei Prefecture probably admired Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu is a hero of the Hundred Cavalry Robbery Camp and a hero who fought against the Northern Barbarians.
Neither the Taiping Society nor the Beiping League has ever oppressed the people.
On the contrary, since the establishment of the Beiping League, the people of Xuanbei Prefecture have obviously felt that they are getting safer and safer.
There are fewer and fewer ruffians roaming the streets.
The bandits and robbers outside the city are gone, and they need to say goodbye to their families when they go far away.
There are more and more people coming to do business, and things are getting better and better to sell......
These are all changes brought about by the Beiping League.
The people are blind and are always easily led by rumors that do not know the truth.
But the people are also simple, who is good to them and who is not good to them, everyone has a scale in their hearts.
As soon as the shouting knight walked away, a swordsman led the horse out of the inn, looked at the direction of the knight, and whispered: "Beiping League, the Qianyuan Army ......"
He tightened the nine-ring broadsword on his back, turned over on his horse, and beat his horse to the east gate.
He is a man in the rivers and lakes of Fengwolf County.
I wanted to go north to join the army.
Now that the Xuanbei Jianghu people have formed their own righteous army, of course he will join the Xuanbei Jianghu people's own righteous army.
As for what Zhang Chu did after he ascended to the Xuanbei Martial Arts Alliance, he was still convinced.
That's a good man with iron bones!
It is said that every righteous slaughter of dogs.
Rivers and lakes.
The most important thing is the hot-blooded man who has nowhere to put his blood!
......
The invasion of the Northern Barbarians two years ago happened too suddenly.
The Zhenbei Army was defeated too quickly......
In this era of inconvenient communication, if there is no official transmission of information, the spread of news can only rely on word of mouth.
It's slow, it's slow.
The Northern Barbarians invaded that year.
The world-famous Zhenbei Army lost the impregnable Yongming Pass in the first battle.
In World War II, he was defeated and retreated to AllHeaven.
In three wars, even AllBright Mansion was lost.
In the fourth war, Xuanbei Prefecture is about to be gone......
It is said that the defeat is like a mountain.
But it also failed too quickly......
It was so fast that the court didn't have time to send reinforcements, so he could only endure nausea and eat, and was crowned the champion as the king of Zhenbei.
It was so fast that before the people began to exert their strength, the enemy had already defeated half of Xuanbei Prefecture, and the remaining half of Xuanbei Prefecture was about to end.
Under the tilt of the sky, how can a single tree support it?
Too fast, too fast......
And this time it's different!
This time, it was the imperial court that sent the leading generals into Xuanbei Prefecture to integrate the forces of all parties for a major counteroffensive!
Plus this time, it was the Northern Barbarians who made the first move......
The dispatch of the imperial court was very fast, and the government army of the three prefectures in the northwest of Yan and the forbidden army of the capital arrived at the battlefield in time!
In a very short period of time, the public opinion offensive also achieved very good results, and the people began to raise money and food on their own initiative to support the front.
Hot-blooded sons and daughters from all over the country are also going north to join the army!
It's that people are greedy for life.
But someone has to defend the country!
......
Countless rivers and lakes converged on Taiping Pass from all directions.
A large amount of money, food, weapons, and armor are also converging towards Taipingguan.
Zhang Chu served as the leader of the Xuanbei Martial Arts Alliance, but he was not more than a year old.
More than you can control.
Lack of cohesion.
But compared to those officials, Zhang Chu, the leader of the Xuanbei Prefecture Martial Arts Alliance, is obviously the "own person" of the hot-blooded sons and daughters of the Xuanbei rivers and lakes.
September 10th.
The Red Flower Department was assembled, with a total of 11,820 people.
September 10th.
In response to Zhang Chu's call, the Xuanbei Jianghu Erlang who rushed to Taiping Pass in the starry night had a total of 4,672 people, and it is estimated that there are still 1,200 people on the road......
Zhang Chu reorganized the army.
Eliminate the young, the elderly, and those who have only children in the family, and only the old father and mother are left in the family.
Yes, an army of 10,000.
It is divided into three bathrooms and one carry.
One guard and three thousand cavalry.
Two guards and six thousand infantry.
A thousand heavy soldiers.
Conferral of armor.
Ordered to kill pigs and sheep and eat a full meal.
......
It's dark.
A group of men and horses guarded the mules, and rushed back to Taiping Pass in the starry night and went to the main altar.
Zhang Chu was in the lobby of the main altar of the Beiping League, waiting for a long time.
Seeing the dusty mule, Zhang Chu waved his hand, and Da Liu outside the door immediately arranged for someone to deliver the meal.
"Let's get down to business first, and then eat. ”
The mule didn't care about eating: "I saw Pu Wenxuan, he agreed to your condition of 'listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement', the banner and arrows of the 'Qianyuan Army' are already in the process of being prepared, and they will be delivered to us when we arrive at Taibai Mansion, on the condition that we need to raise our own heavy grain and straw...... By the way, he asked me to bring this to you, saying that it was specially left to you by General Zhu Guo!"
As he spoke, he took out an object from his arms and presented it to Zhang Chu with both hands.
The object was wrapped in purple ribbons, square, and the size of a palm.
Zhang Chu glanced at it and didn't answer: "General Zhengbei's seal?"
The mule nodded and said, "You are still like a god......
The general of the expedition to the north, placed in wartime, is a three-grade military position, can be used as a regular service, or can be transferred to a military position.
According to the unspoken rule of the officials of the Great Departure Court, Zhang Chuqiang's strength of the fourth grade also received this seal.
But Zhang Chu glanced at this seal, but he couldn't help frowning: "How could you bring this thing back?"
This is not the first time he has touched this seal.
In the past year, when Zhang Chu led the 7,000 Honghuatang Gang to the north, Huo Hongye once revealed to him that as long as he was willing to join the Zhenbei Army, he could give this seal to Zhang Chu.
That time, Zhang Chu refused without hesitation.
This time, Zhang Chu still didn't want to take this seal.
This thing, for other qi sea tycoons, may be a ladder to the sky.
But for Zhang Chu, it's a chicken rib......
Wrong!
It should be a hot potato!
Zhang Chu knew what this thing represented.
But he has eight counties under his command, and he doesn't need the public opinion of this thing at all.
And he is the leader of the Xuanbei Martial Arts Alliance, even if it is a special period to protect the family and defend the country, it is not appropriate to take this seal after all......
The mule smiled bitterly: "Pu Wenxuan has a lot of persuasion, but I can't resist it, besides, I also think that we have to deal with the soldiers and horses of the imperial court when we go north this time......
That's what he said.
Zhang Chu heard the rarity in his tone...... In the end, this is an official position of the third grade, ordinary people can't kowtow, so they are willing to push it out.
Especially the mule, a person who has the plot of being an official and honoring his ancestors.
He had the heart to reprimand the mule, but looking at his dusty and tired face, he couldn't bear it.
From Taipingguan to Taibai Mansion, one goes and one comes, and it takes three days to say the least.
The mule took only two and a half days.
I'm afraid that it won't rest for a moment.
"Give it to me!"
Zhang Chu sighed lightly: "When I get to Taibai Mansion, I'll find Pu Wenxuan to change another one." ”
"I only have 10,000 people under my command, and a position of a military officer from the fifth rank is enough......"
