Chapter 313: The triumph of the king

Winter Moon Twenty-Eight.

Heavy snow falls in Jinling.

"Xiangrui!"

In the palace, Xiao Pingsi was in the warm pavilion of the Yangju Palace, and Wang Feng personally came to report the good news.

The so-called Seoxue Mega Harvest Year, which also snows heavily in Jinling, is a rare season, indicating that the Gyeonggi region will definitely be a good year next year.

At the same time, the good news came back in one day, and there was another thing.

"Your Majesty, the army is triumphant, and the budget is less than fifty miles outside the city at this time."

"So what are you waiting for?" Xiao Pingsi put down the fold in his hand, stood up and shook his sleeves, "Drive Bei'anmen." ”

Bei'anmen is one of the big city gates in the north of Jinling.

The capital is too big, not other cities, only four city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest.

In addition to the square main gate of Jinling, there are five city gates, of which the Bei'an Gate is in the north, which will not be easily opened in ordinary times.

Generally, there is a large army going out, and it will enter the city from Bei'anmen when it is triumphant.

"Yes." Wang Feng gave up.

Bei'anmen.

At this time, the liturgy has already begun.

The gongs and drums are noisy, and the crowd is crowded, starting early in the morning.

It is only because the army is triumphant today, so the Ministry of Rites has prepared a ceremony to greet it, and the Ministry of War and the Forbidden Army have mobilized a large number of soldiers and horses inside and outside Bei'anmen.

More than 20,000 armored forbidden troops lined up here, all of them were full of energy, and the armor on their bodies was shining.

The most elite forbidden army gathered here today in order to meet the triumphant army and prepare for it at the same time.

What to guard against?

Of course, it was the general who was preparing for the return, and took the opportunity to lead his troops into the capital.

"It's almost there, isn't it?"

"Why haven't you come yet......?"

Inside and outside the Bei'an Gate, which has long been opened, the people who welcome them are staring at the wide official road outside the city, and their necks are about to twist.

"Coming, coming......"

"Look, the battle flag, it's the battle flag of the Yulin Army!"

The first to enter the eyes of everyone is a tall military flag, the special symbol of the Yulin Army, which is recognizable at a glance.

Under the horizon, the flag gradually emerges, rising.

Then there were the tall cavalry, which appeared in view.

"It's coming!"

"Listen, the music has changed its tune."

"There's a war horse coming, why is it riding first?"

"What do you know, this is called asking for a decree to return, even if you win a big battle, you can't enter the city directly, you need to get a holy decree granted by Your Majesty to lead troops into the city."

"yes, I forgot."

Riding through the smoke and dust, under the anticipation of everyone in the capital, he rushed to the gate of the city.

Cheng Jie dismounted, tidied up his armor, and put his hat on straight.

Then he solemnly held the fold and began to walk slowly from outside the city gate.

Zhang Xian, the soldier waiting at the gate of the city, was also tidying up his clothes, and it was the first time he had seen such a big scene.

It stands to reason that the secretary of the military department should come to greet him, but there is no secretary in the military department now, and he is the squire who acts as the secretary.

"Conquer the north to rebel against the army, go out for a few months, return victoriously, and submit a battle report, please Your Majesty!"

Cheng Jie walked up to Zhang Xian and folded his hands.

Zhang Xian also held it with both hands, and then under the escort of the forbidden army, he drove towards His Majesty's dragon.

The holy car had already arrived at Bei'anmen, Xiao Pingsi straightened his head and saw that someone was coming.

"Your Majesty, the rebellion against the north has won a great victory, and the ministers congratulate Your Majesty and congratulate Great Xia." Zhang Xian ran over and knelt in front of the holy car.

Wang Feng personally went over and handed the fold in Zhang Xian's hand to Xiao Pingsi.

There's nothing to look at, the content in it is all standard, just a process.

Xiao Pingsi opened the fold, glanced at it a few times, and put it on the case in front of him.

"Spread the decree, welcome the king!" Xiao Pingsilicon waved his hand.

Wang Feng: "Obey." ”

He took the holy decree that had been drawn up a long time ago from the hand of the inner supervisor who was respectfully holding it on the side and handed it to Zhang Xian.

"Obey the order!" Zhang Xian took the holy decree, got up and took three steps back, before turning around and walking outside the city gate.

Cheng Jie knelt at the door, and when he saw Zhang Xian coming with a holy decree, he made a big salute.

Zhang Xian stopped in front of Cheng Jie and spread out the holy decree: "Fengtian carries the emperor's edict, saying, fortunately, there is a king division, conquering the north to rebel, the soldiers use their lives, rejoice in the victory, and receive the reward with the triumphant army to comfort the ...... of the three armies."

"The minister takes the order!"

After receiving the decree, Cheng Jie quickly got up, folded the holy decree, and ran on the horse.

"Drive!" Le Ma turned around, and Cheng Jie galloped towards the outside of the city.

The army was already within five miles, but it was only deliberately slowing down, waiting for a holy decree to enter the city legally.

"General!"

Cheng Jie came back happily, holding the reins in one hand and the holy decree in the other, and there was no bump at all.

"Your Majesty has a decree, the army enters the city!" Cheng Jie dismounted and held the holy decree to Fang Jue with both hands.

Fang Jue didn't need to bow down, the army had already received the order, but he needed to enter the city with the holy decree, so he took the holy decree from Cheng Jie's hands.

"The whole army is in the city!"

Fang Jue waved his big hand, led the horse with his left hand, held the holy decree with his right hand facing the sky, and walked slowly.

All the way to the outside of the city gate, about two or three miles away, I heard the noise of the crowd.

The people were excited, and the officials and officials were also excited, and they calculated a little in their hearts how much reward they could get.

In this kind of great victory in the national war, all the officials of the whole country will be rewarded, and all of them will be organized.

"Young Master!"

"Is that the young master, so young?"

"Nonsense, now that I am in Great Xia, where is there such a young general except for the young master."

"And so many people?" Some officials saw the triumphant army, lined up in good array, and only a cursory calculation knew that there were still six or seven thousand men.

However, when the Yulin Army set out on the expedition, it was only 8,000 light cavalry, plus 1,000 people from the firearms battalion.

And there are still 100 firearms battalions left in Yanzhou.

Rao is like this, but more than 6,000 people can come back, this battle damage is a bit exaggerated.

With a loss of less than 2,000 people, the firearms battalion can be said to rarely charge into battle, but the casualties of the Yulin Army are so small?

"Another legendary general, I seem to have seen Ye Xuanfeng back then." Some generals looked at it, and the young general who was holding the holy decree in his hand and was full of spirit was full of envy with emotion.

Ye Xuanfeng was also beside the Holy Driver, and when the army began to enter the city, he could also see it clearly.

"Hiss......" The senior generals in Beijing all followed beside the holy car, and like Ye Xuanfeng, they all showed a look of surprise.

"Less than 2,000 ......"

Old Lady He looked at Ye Xuanfeng: "You took tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Gyeonggi for the first time back then, how many people came back?" ”

Ye Xuanfeng was ashamed of himself: "Only less than seventy percent came back, and one percent of them was still a supplementary soldier." ”

"Your record back then is enough to pass on history, but the young master not only has a better record, but also brought back eighty percent of the soldiers who went out to fight." Old lady He muttered and sighed.

"I might as well too." Ye Xuanfeng said sincerely, but his tone was gratifying, and he didn't feel that he was compared.

But as soon as the conversation changed, he said with a smile: "The young master will soon be the son-in-law of my Ye family." ”

"Nominally, not really." Old lady He said sarcastically.

The corners of Ye Xuanfeng's mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at this guy, Ye Hongyi was indeed not a member of the Ye family in name.
