Chapter 266: The long tassel is out of the sheath
Changying Army, Tiance Army, Left Weiwei, Right Weiwei, Left Wuwei, Left Jinwuwei......
Although the entire military department and the entire forbidden army have done their best, in a limited time, only the two armies and four guards have completed the entire formation.
As for the remaining two armies and eight guards, the most complete Yulin Army is also short of about 30%, as for the left and right guards with the smallest number of people, the left and right guards have only built a framework, and as for the missing part, it needs to be replenished within a few months.
Jin Wuwei is going to stay in Chang'an to garrison the capital, Zuo Weiwei is going to Xiaoguan, Right Weiwei is going to Sanguan, and Tiance Army is going to Chencang, so there is no choice if he can follow him on the expedition now.
Changyingjun and Zuo Wuwei have become Guo Rong's only choice now.
There are 30,000 people, and the number of people is definitely not much, but in Guo Rong's opinion, this is enough, of course, there is no way to do it, if he doesn't set off, Li Yu will probably have a problem.
In a quarter of an hour, the soldiers and horses and personnel who went out were determined, and in another quarter of an hour, the follow-up troop replenishment and preparations were arranged, and then, Guo Rong left the Forbidden Garden and went straight to Xingqing Palace.
When Guo Rong arrived at Xingqing Palace, the sky had gradually darkened, and in the already dim light, Emperor Li Chun's chariot was still particularly dazzling.
Looking at Li Chun's chariot, Guo Rong shook his head helplessly, Li Chun's sense of presence may have been stronger when Li Yu was not in Chang'an, but the real person has returned......
Immediately, Guo Rong didn't think much about it, and stepped in directly, only to see a pair of father and son emperors who were talking and laughing.
Seeing Guo Rong sign up, Li Yu laughed.
"Hey, General Guo, you are here, we have been waiting for you for two whole hours, if you don't come again, I am ready to send someone to find you!"
"Your Majesty, someone from Liaodong is here!"
"Oh, tell me!"
"Liaodong is in chaos!"
"Liaodong is in chaos?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's much worse than expected!"
In an instant, a smile disappeared from Li Yu's face.
"Ready to go on the expedition?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister is going to leave tonight."
"In such a hurry, can't you wait tomorrow?"
"Your Majesty, to be honest, even if you set off now, the minister thinks that he will not be able to save the border people of Liaodong, and it is definitely not an accident that Silla, Baekje, Bohae, Khitan, and so on will all be in trouble together."
"The minister senses that someone is operating and fueling the situation, and with the current situation, it is very likely to reach a chaos of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people."
"Well," Li Yu nodded, "Since it has been decided, let's go out early, this time it is a large army, I won't cause trouble for you, do you have enough soldiers and horses?" ”
"Changyingjun plus Zuo Wuwei!"
"So little? Is it enough? I remember that according to your plan, the Tiance Army and the left and right Weiwei should also be ready, the Tubo people......"
"Your Majesty, no!"
"Your Majesty, the minister is still the same sentence, Chang'an is the solid foundation of the entire Datang, as long as there is no problem in Chang'an, as long as Guanzhong is still stable, my Datang will have enough confidence."
"And what else do you need?"
"The minister wants the right to make decisions on the spot, plus the power to transfer troops and horses in Hebei Province and Henan Province."
"Tsk! Tut! Tut! Guo Rong, the transfer of soldiers and horses in Hebei Province and Henan Province, plus the right to make decisions on the spot, can the Son of Heaven provide it? ”
With a smile, Li Yu looked at his son beside him while exclaiming.
To be honest, what Guo Rong wanted was a bit beyond Li Chun's expectations, for only one reason, in theory, what Guo Rong needed was too powerful, and even crushed An Lushan at his peak.
Once this power is really given to Guo Rong......
At first, Li Chun was a little hesitant, but when he thought of this afternoon, when he was in front of his family, Guo Rong did not hide his behavior, and then looked at his father's eyes full of encouragement.
"Naturally, there is no problem! However, Guo Rong's left squire in the military department doesn't seem to be able to support a marching commander. ”
"Oh, what does the Son of Heaven want?"
Immediately afterwards, Li Chun personally waved his pen, and after seeing what was written above, the Emperor Li Yu was relieved, gently patted his son's shoulder, and raised his thumb to learn from Guo Rong's former appearance.
The performance of Li Chun and Li Yu, the father and son, surprised Guo Rong, until Guo Rong saw the content of Li Chun's handwriting, and the whole person was stunned.
When Guo Rong saw the contents inside, he was stunned for a while.
Guo Rong, the general of the Changying Army and the left attendant of the military department, was awarded the inspection of the military department of the school, and the secretary of the middle school was the same as the Pingzhang Shi, and the envoy of Hebei Province and Henan Province was deposed, and he was also the chief of the march of Hebei Province, Henan Province and Hedong Province......
"Okay, Zhang Taicheng, you go in person, send it to the middle school, and let them finish the review tonight!"
"Your Majesty, the minister also wants to ask for an edict!"
"Huh? Why is this not enough, but also an edict? ”
"Your Majesty, I, the Tang Dynasty, have always been gentle, and then ...... Fear of power but not virtue......"
"What do you want to do?"
"I want everyone to think about whether they have the ability to bear the price of all this before they have different intentions!"
The two emperors stared at Guo Rong at the same time with surprised eyes.
"You can know,"
“*******,*******!”
"Okay, with this sentence, I will give you ......"
"Father, think twice, it's not difficult to make such an edict, but once it is issued, whether it is my father or Guo Rong, I'm afraid they will be infamous as butchers."
"Oh, really?"
Hearing Li Chun's words, Li Chan showed a cynical and disapproving smile, but seeing Li Chan so disapprovingly, Li Chun suddenly became anxious.
"Think twice, father, Emperor Xin, Emperor Shi, Wu Anjun, Ran Min...... Father think twice! ”
"The father and the emperor are all stupid in the world, this edict is in one place, the father must be pointed out by thousands of husbands, and must be blamed by the family and the wealthy, when the world is still like this, and a hundred years later, the son may be ......"
His words were interrupted by Li Chun, but Li Xu's face did not show the slightest dissatisfaction, on the contrary, seeing his son's eager expression and hearing what his son cared about, Li Yu felt the warmth called family affection for the first time in the royal family.
He knew that what his son said was right, but he also knew that Guo Rong was right.
If Li Chun didn't behave like this today, it is unknown whether he would be so ruthless, but now, Li Yu feels that he is worth it.
I've experienced this kind of thing like being forced to abdicate, so I have nothing to worry about.
Anyway, on the grassland, it has already been done once, and it is nothing to do it again, and if the notoriety can really deter Xiaoxiao and protect the Tang Dynasty as Guo Rong said, he Li Yu does not mind letting himself go down to the eighteenth layer of the region.
As for Li Chun, since his father is kind and filial to his son, he might as well bear all the notoriety himself, leave the notoriety of butcher, brutality, and tyranny to himself, and leave Li Chun to be an upright and blameless Tang Emperor.
Li Yu felt that "Yuanhe Zhongxing" was a good title.
……………………………………………………………………………………
Just after midnight, the Fanglin Gate in the north of Chang'an City was suddenly opened, and a team of cavalry rushed out of the city gate and went straight to the forbidden garden, the base camp of the forbidden army.
At this time, the forbidden garden was silent, the Changying Army, the Tiance Army, the Yulin Army, and the Shenwei Army, and only one team of patrols in the four camps were constantly patrolling with torches.
Compared with the Yulin Army and the Shenwei Army, the barracks were somewhat empty, and hundreds of four-wheeled carriages had been parked in the usual training grounds and open spaces of the Changying Army.
On the south side of the camp of the Changying Army, in the barracks with thunderous snoring, the armor stomach and blades are neatly placed, and on the weapon racks next to the wall, rows of Mo knives are exposed.
On the several eucalyptus in the center of the room, there is a whole row of family letters, of course, in the Changying Army, some people also call them suicide notes.
In the wide barracks, a very young-looking, but tall, burly figure was constantly patrolling.
One row, two rows, when he came to the end, the quilt was pressed under him, the dog tag in his hand, and the eggs of the recruits who slept on their backs came into front of Lin Yu's eyes.
This guy is similar to himself He Zeng four years ago, I remember that I set off from Chang'an and went to Jingzhou The night before I went to Jingzhou, I seemed to sleep like this.
Smiling slightly, helping this raw melon egg called Ban Fu cover the quilt, Lin Yu heard the sound of the barracks door being opened, looked back, with the help of the faint fire outside, Lin Yu saw the figure, it was his instructor.
"Company Commander ~ Company Commander ~"
The voice was not loud, but the penetrating power was enough, and with the gestures and movements of the instructor, Lin Yu walked towards the door.
"What's wrong, Zeming?"
"The general has returned to the camp, set off before dawn, blow the bugle at night, and notify all officers above the company level to assemble at the colonel's field."
………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Raise your hand who has participated in the defensive battle of Xingqing Palace!"
At this time, the central school field of the Changying Army camp was brightly lit, but the school field that could carry tens of thousands of people was a little empty, because there were only hundreds of military schools from the Changying Army and Zuo Wuwei standing here at this moment.
In the face of Guo Rong's inquiry, at least 100 people raised their hands above their heads, and this accounted for almost 30% of the total number.
After counting the number of people, Guo Rong nodded with satisfaction, yes, the guy who survived from Xingqing Palace has at least reached the level of company commander if he survives to the present, which is equivalent to the regimental captain before the reform of military rank and rank this time.
"Yes, I didn't expect there to be so many old fellows alive until now, if this time, we can come back alive, I invite you to drink!"
"Okay, put down your hands, raise your hands who have participated in the battles of Jingyuan and Jingzhou!"
This time, more than seventy percent of the people raised their hands, and they saw several familiar figures from them, such as Guo Rong, who was once stunned, still nodded with satisfaction.
"Well, it's all good! Next, follow General Li Yu's raid on Yunzhou's raised hand! ”
About twenty percent, Guo Rong saw Li Yan, who he was very familiar with, from among the people who raised his hand, and nodded slightly.
"Okay, I was incorporated into the Northern Expeditionary Army, and I raised my hand with the general and the Emperor Taishang to go to Mobei!"
This time, with the exception of a few people who were scattered, almost all of the rest raised their hands.
"Alright, let's all put down our hands!"
When everyone's hands were lowered and the scene returned to calm, Guo Rong slowly spoke.
"No matter which unit you belong to now, but I can say that all the people present have fought with me, some are in Chang'an, some are in Xiaoguan, and some are in Jingzhou, all of them crawled out of the sea of blood in the mountain of corpses, I won't say more nonsense, the brothers of the reconnaissance battalion have already sent back the news from Hebei and Liaodong."
"It's just that the news that came back is very bad, Hebei Province is very chaotic, and Liaodong may have become a hell on earth, and countless people belonging to the Tang Dynasty are being killed and looted like crazy!"
"And our destination is Hebei, and our destination is Liaodong, of course, this is the purpose of our expedition, not the purpose of my gathering of you here today."
"I know that as the guards of the Tang Dynasty, you are not afraid of hard battles, I know that you are not afraid of dying on the battlefield, I know that you are well-trained, we know that your sister is fearless, I know that your life and death have been put ......aside since you joined the Changying Army and made an oath to fight for the Tang Dynasty."
"However, I still have to tell you that these alone are not enough for you to protect Datang! Because our enemies don't just come from one direction. ”
"In the past, my Datang was invincible in the world, and my Datang sank for decades in the Anshi Rebellion, but now my Datang has embarked on the road of rejuvenation, but too many people are unwilling to see my Datang revival again!"
"What I want to tell you is that our enemies include the feudal towns of the Tang Dynasty, Lu Long, Wei Bo, and Chengde, the Hao clan from Shandong, the alien Khitan, Jin Ya, and Goguryeo from Liaodong, and our enemies are the Japanese people from Dongying, and of course our enemies are the conspirators and careerists lurking in the Tang Dynasty......
"What I want to tell you is that we have no one to rely on on this expedition, and we have no one to rely on! I want to tell you that the Tang Dynasty is the enemy of the whole world! ”
"Let me ask you, if someone wants to stop my revival of the Tang Dynasty, do you agree?"
"No!"
"In the past, when I first established the Tang Dynasty, Gaozu, Taizong, and Weiguo Gong swept the world with all their hearts, so that I had the glory of the Tang Dynasty in the past."
"Now that my Han family is glorious and Datang is prosperous, you are willing to follow me to clean up the ghosts and ghosts for Datang, sweep away demons and monsters, and play a bright future for Datang!"
"Yes!
! ”
Under the anger of the crowd, Guo Rong stretched out his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, and then took a holy decree from the guards behind him.
"Edict of the Emperor!"
As soon as the voice came out, the three or four hundred Changying Military Academy present knelt on their knees.
"Where the sun and the moon shine and the rivers go, they are all Han soil!
All the Tang flags are displayed, and the soldiers are all concubines!
All those who dare to call themselves soldiers inside and outside will be beheaded, beheaded, and burned their sects, thousands of miles away!
Whoever dares to offend will destroy his city, destroy his country, destroy his species, and cut off his descendants! ”
In the middle of the night in the forbidden garden, one bell after another sounded into the sky.
In the midst of this continuous sound, the melodious military horn sounded, and the camp that had been silent in the night was instantly awakened, and the lights were lit, dressed, equipped, out of the camp, and prepared, and the whole camp entered a busy state.
After two hours of preparations, when millions of Chang'an citizens were still in their dreams, the gate of the Changying Army camp suddenly opened.
Under the guidance of a huge, high-raised Tang battle flag, the Changying army left the camp.
At the same time, the rebuilt Zuo Wuwei also walked out of the camp gate at the same time.
When the sun jumped out of the ground, Zuo Wuwei and Changying's army completed the rendezvous at Shili Pavilion east of Chang'an, and a huge team of more than 30,000 people had already appeared on the official road east of Chang'an.
As the gate of Chang'an opened, a group of cavalry suddenly protruded from the gate and rushed directly towards the army, and soon caught up with the target.
Seeing that it was Zhang Taicheng, Guo Rong was slightly stunned.
"Does the Emperor have any other orders?"
"The Emperor Taishang has an order, and he will not be subject to the orders of the monarch outside! Also, Your Majesty asked me to give this to you! ”
