First of all, with more than 1,000 forbidden troops, the entire Cui Mansion was surrounded. He then used the Eight Bull Crossbow to block the main gate, the back door and other important areas of the Cui Mansion.

Then, with a total of sixty catapults supplemented in place one after the other, two sets of catapults bombarded around the Cui Mansion of Yongjiafang.

In the real half an hour, more than 2,000 stone bullets bombed the Cui Mansion, which occupies a large area, into a ruined wall, with corpses all over the ground and no tiles.

Rao is like this, there are still quite a few guys who are hard enough and strong enough to survive the bombardment of stone bullets, however, the luck ends here.

The guy who could still move, holding the blade, began to charge outward, but before they could rush out of the Cui Mansion, which had become a ruin, the eight-bull crossbow on the periphery had already shot out directly.

The remaining rebels were instantly shot into strings of sugar gourds and large sieves...... After the last of the resistants were killed, the Forbidden Army recruits spread out in battle formation.

For these recruits who have completed training and assessment, but have not yet participated in actual combat, this kind of miserable-looking Cui Mansion has become their best testing ground.

With the heavy infantry in heavy armor of the forbidden army leading the team in front, armed with strong bows, crossbow archers, and crossbowmen behind, stepping on broken bricks and tiles, stumps and broken arms, and entered the Cui Mansion before the corpses and blood.

These recruits have only two tasks, the first is to adapt to the battlefield that will be much more brutal than this in the future, and the second is to complete the mending of the remnants, and complete the final step of any war, the infantry occupation.

It didn't take long for these forbidden recruits who had entered the ruins of Cui's Mansion to reappear, but at this time, their bright expressions were already stained with blood, and the boots under their feet had turned a dark red after a mixture of blood and dirt.

Soon, the courtyard wall that had escaped the endless attack of the stone bullets was also directly knocked down, and the Cui Mansion, which had been completely reduced to ruins, was really presented in front of everyone.

In the past, the Cui Mansion was full of high-rise buildings, the mountains were stacked, the luxury of the houses, the beauty of the scenery, the appearance of the female color was a must, some people even commented that the beauty of the Cui Mansion was the crown of Chang'an, and even the Daming Palace at the peak moment could not be compared with it.

However, when the courtyard wall was completely torn down, the Cui Mansion, which was once famous for its beauty, had completely disappeared in the eyes of everyone.

Tsuki completed the first real battle of his life, and the recruits of the Forbidden Army were in high spirits one by one.

Even Zhang Zhongwu, a low-ranking officer of Jin Wuwei, as an auxiliary personnel, felt a shock and understanding that could not be described in words.

Zhang Zhongwu, who was born in a family and is in his early twenties, has heard that sentence more than once

"Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements, and those who are good at doctors have no brilliant name." Zhang Zhongwu could understand the meaning of the words, but ...... What exactly does it mean to be called a good fighter?

What kind of talent is called a great achievement? Why don't those who are good at fighting have great achievements? What kind of person can be called a good healer?

What kind of medical skills can be called great work? Why do those who are good healers have no brilliant name? Since he is a good healer, why does he not have a brilliant name?

This series of questions once brought great trouble to the young Zhang Zhongwu, and even his father, Zhang Guangchao, who is now the general of the Tang Dynasty's Zuo Weiwei, failed to give him an absolutely convincing answer.

However, today, in front of the fortress-like mansion of Cui Ruxun, Qing of Chang'an City, Yongjiafang, and Dali Temple, he seems to understand.

Judging from today, from the entry of the forbidden army into the city, to the encirclement, to the siege equipment in place, from the blockade of the eight-ox crossbow, to the catapult attack, and finally the forbidden army entered the Cui Mansion to finish.

In the eyes of the vast majority of people, the whole process is extremely bland, bland to the point of even boring.

However, the whole process, in Zhang Zhongwu's eyes, seems to be smooth, with an indescribable sense of beauty and enjoyment.

It was as if this was an art refined to the extreme, and even fascinated Zhang Zhongwu. What shocked Zhang Zhongwu the most was not only the whole process.

In Zhang Zhongwu's impression, fighting to the death is almost an iron law that is impossible to break. And this iron law, which cannot be broken, has been broken in today's battle.

It also lies in the fact that during the whole process from the encirclement to the end, the forbidden army really achieved zero casualties.

Zero casualties, something that Zhang Zhongwu couldn't imagine, was realized in this smooth, supple, and flowing battle like his peers.

Zhang Zhongwu didn't know how to do this miraculous scene that broke his common sense, but he knew how much effort and wealth were consumed in order to be able to do everything, the imperial court, the military department, the emperor, and the forbidden army.

If nothing else, the hundreds of siege equipment, plus thousands or even countless stone bullets and heavy crossbow arrows, is an unimaginable wealth.

Zhang Zhongwu was born in a family of Xingwu, but his family is Youzhou in the north, which belongs to Lu Longjun.

The north is bitterly cold, Yan, Zhao, Liaodong, Liaoxi, and Monan, all of which are the same, so the soldiers of Lu Longjun have always been brave.

Because of the bitter cold, in the entire Tang Dynasty, the northern land where Lu Long is located is relatively poor from the entire lobby, so the northern land can only raise local clans, local wealthy clans, and famous clans of Wangjun at most, but it cannot form the kind of real family and gate valve that has been inherited for thousands of years.

In fact, even the big clans, wealthy clans, and Wangjun of the same level cannot be compared with the same clans such as Henan Province and Jiangnan Province.

For example, Han Yu, the general manager of Comrade Guo Rong in Chang'an, calls himself Mr. Changli, and his Han clan is Wangjun Changli, but he is also a Wangjun clan, even if there is a person like Han Yu who is outstanding in literature and in a high position, it is difficult to really compare with the traditional clan located in the relatively south.

As for the envoy Lu Longjie, who occupies an important position in the political and military territory of the Tang Dynasty, he is not rich, and he also needs to smash the pot and sell iron to maintain the hundreds of thousands of troops, so as to equip these hundreds of thousands of troops with relatively complete equipment.

Just like today's forbidden army, use money to fight, and even fight with zero casualties...... Originally, in front of the main gate of Cui Mansion, Li Fangbang, an instructor of the Forbidden Army Training Center who actually commanded this operation, gave an order and commanded the soldiers under his command to continue marching, while looking at the young chief next to him with the corner of his eye.

After the follow-up tasks were arranged, he slowly walked to Zhang Zhongwu's side, who was in a state of shock, and said with a smile.

"Young people, sometimes it's just a long experience," seeing that Zhang Zhongwu still didn't come back to his senses, Li Fangbang continued,

"Remember what I told you before the war?" As soon as this sentence came out, the memory in Zhang Zhongwu's mind was instantly awakened.

After thinking about the cause and effect in an instant, Zhang Zhongwu smiled helplessly.

"It's no wonder that after studying the establishment, regulations, and tactics of the forbidden army, my father respected General Guo very much, and the victory or defeat was decided before the end of the war, how can this not be amazing!" Listening to Zhang Zhongwu's sigh, Li Fang burst into laughter and was silent.

Like many colleagues, long before the rebellion launched by Ju Wenzhen in Chang'an, Li Fangbang, who was born as a civilian, had already reached the ceiling of his background - a regimental captain.

It's just that the regiment at this time is not the regiment at that time, and a small regimental captain has lost countless talents.

In the Tang Dynasty, there are very few real fools, and in the army, especially in the Shence Army composed of elites drawn from the border armies from all over the country, there are not too many people like Li Fangbang.

The total number of Shence troops who followed Ju Wenzhen to launch a rebellion exceeded 60,000, could it be that none of these 60,000 people knew that they were being fooled?

Obviously, this is impossible, and it can be seen that there are too many people in the rebellion, but most of them did not choose to fight on the spot after judging that this was a rebellion, but silently participated in the rebellion.

The real reason seems simply ridiculous. Because, if they follow the rules, these people will probably never be able to step through this invisible ditch from the captain to the guerrilla general.

Not being able to cross this ditch means that you have to be a high-ranking soldier who manages the army for others all your life, and you can never become the master of your own destiny.

Therefore, they participated in the rebellion without hesitation, just for Bo's background and future.

Because they were not the main force of the Tang Army, the government soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Because they are recruiters, they are military soldiers as their profession, fighting wars and doing daily mercenaries!

Mencius once said that the people are the way, those who have constant production have perseverance, and those who do not have permanent production have no perseverance, for a group of mercenaries who are lonely and ghost-like, betrayal is really not too difficult to do.

Not to mention that the target is Emperor Taishang, even if he raises his horizontal sword and picks up his spear, it is Li Tang's emperor who is facing it.

If the emperor doesn't take money to redeem his life, the emperor is definitely not as valuable as a penny! Anyway, with a gun on your shoulder, who is fighting for is not fighting?

Besides, the prince will Xiangning have a kind of? The emperor takes turns to sit and come to my house next year! After the rebellion was put down, the Emperor Taishang gathered most of the Shence army.

Under Guo Rong's suggestion, after eliminating some of the completely corrupted guys, how to deal with the tens of thousands of elite Divine Strategy veterans was the biggest challenge faced by Emperor Li Xu.

Guo Rong has always been very curious, how the Emperor Taishang pocketed tens of thousands of Shence veterans in one fell swoop, you know, how difficult it is to serve tens of thousands of guys who have both experience and experience, are not stupid, and have their own knowledge.

If it is handled well, it is wealth, and if it is not handled well, it will be the biggest hidden danger in the future of the entire Datang. The Emperor Taishang is indeed very powerful, but ...... Emperor Taishang is not an immortal, and it is impossible to make all the Divine Strategy rebels change their minds with one sentence.

The Emperor Taishang is not the yellow-haired boy, he has an invincible mouth, which can break the sky, the ground, and the air.

In fact, what Guo Rong didn't know was that the Emperor Taishang was able to successfully subdue the real elites of those Divine Strategy rebels precisely because of Guo Rong's advice.

Before the crossing, Guo Rong was not a big man or an expert, but Guo Rong remembered the words of the instructor very well, and the power came out of the barrel of the gun.

Whether it is rescuing Anxi or maintaining Li Tang, a strong and powerful army is definitely the biggest foundation and the most important guarantee.

Guo Rong doesn't understand politics, doesn't understand economics, and even how to train troops and how to build an army is still groping, so he came up with a set of systems and systems that combine rabbits with the Tang Dynasty military system.

The Emperor does not understand military affairs, but the Emperor understands politics and economics, and the Emperor is the best in the world in terms of pondering people's hearts, and Guo Rong's unconscious behavior undoubtedly woke up the Emperor.

Those who have constant production have perseverance, and those who do not have constant production have no perseverance! From a proletarian, immoral, homeless, and unscrupulous mercenary to a proper, virtuous, family-owned, and glorious soldier of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taishang believes that no one can resist this temptation - especially these experienced and experienced veterans.

It solves the problem of dealing with the rebels of Shence - the better the introspection, the deeper the repentance, the heavier the oath, and the greater the bet, the priority will be to enter the legendary new forbidden army.

He also provided Guo Rong with a large number of experienced, strong, and firm veterans and backbones - the first batch of recruit instructors of the Changying Army.

With sufficient financial support, there is a skeleton composed of enough veterans, and a set of scientific and effective training methods...... When this forbidden army was created, Emperor Taishang and his successors could not only defend Chang'an and Guanzhong, but even gradually restore the glory of the Li Tang royal family, even if they reached the top.

After a comprehensive analysis and weighing the pros and cons, Emperor Taishang unexpectedly found that Guo Rong's new army construction, which seemed to be extremely luxurious and well-paid to the point of making people jealous and even crazy, was the best way to solve the problems in his hands.

It's just that Guo Rong's method is only one thing bad. That's too expensive! For Li Yu, who has experienced from the crown prince to the emperor, and from the emperor to the emperor, money is a bastard, and he can still make money without it, but there is no such army...... The days of the precarious Dynasty are too much, and the Emperor Taishang has had enough!

In fact, Guo Rong brought the Emperor far more than expected. As the forbidden army became stronger and stronger, Li Tang was really moving in the direction that the Emperor Taishang wanted.

Xungui was cleaned up, the government was stabilized, and Chang'an was stabilized. Longxi and Longnan were recovered, and Guanzhong was stabilized.

The feudal town was cleaned up...... However, in the process of the forbidden army gradually becoming stronger, some things cannot be avoided, that is, a new and powerful interest group with the forbidden army as the core is gradually forming.

To tell the truth, this forbidden army general headed by Guo Rong, the new interest group with the military academy as the core, and the former Sui

The Guanlong military group with the "Eight Pillars State" as the core is similar to He Zeng. In this regard, Emperor Taishang Li Yu knew well, and Emperor Li Chun also saw the fire, but this pair of emperors, father and son, invariably chose to support such an emerging military interest group.

Because such a powerful military interest group is the foundation for maintaining the existence of Tang and even its strength.

The fundamental reason why the Guanlong Group is called military is that the Guanlong Group is based on military merits, and it is the crazy expansion of Datang to the outside world, rather than a simple annexation of land!

For this powerful Guanlong military group, the real Li Tang royal family was not afraid, because Li Tang himself was the most powerful member of the Guanlong military group.

In the past, the Tang Dynasty was strong during the Taizu, Taizong, and Gaozong periods, and it was precisely because the Guanlong Group was at its peak, and with the suppression of the powerful Guanlong Group, all kinds of forces did not dare to make trouble, and all kinds of ghosts, snakes, and gods did not dare to act recklessly.

The real Li Tang royal family is not afraid of the Guanlong Group, but it does not mean that everyone is not afraid, such as the female emperor, and the once powerful Guanlong Group was also killed in her hands The blood flowed like a river, and it collapsed into a group of parasites that sucked blood on the body of the Tang Dynasty.

However, the new forbidden army group became the hope of Emperor Li Yu and Emperor Li Chun. Guo Rong is obviously the spokesperson of this huge interest group, and the veteran of the Shence Army, who is well aware of the situation, is naturally one of the members of this group, and even became the original shareholder of this new interest group because he joined early.

Now Zhang Guangchao, who came from Lu Long, has become the fourth person in the forbidden army after Guo Rong, Li Rui, and Zhang Qiyi!

Zhang Guangchao, who came from Hebei, was obviously a pawn of the Emperor Taishang and the Emperor in order to balance the forbidden army.

For these veterans of the Divine Army who have entered the Changying Army from the Divine Rebel Army and have become vested interests in the New Forbidden Army Group, pulling outsiders into the interior of the group is almost an instinct to defend their own interests.

And this is something that the Emperor Taishang or the Emperor can't stop.
