Chapter 106: Departure to Jinyang
Everyone bypassed Pingyao and went straight to the church.
"What kind of person, the military plane in front of you is heavy, and someone will stop, otherwise you will be killed."
Before they arrived at the military camp in Jiaochang, Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian and their party were stopped by a patrol of soldiers.
"Phew, Prince Luan is here, give way quickly!"
Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian grabbed the reins of the horse at the same time, and Zhang Zheng shouted.
He took out the fish talisman used in the transfer of troops from his bosom and held it high in his hand, and Li Chengqian took out the gold book representing his identity.
When the patrolling soldiers saw that the fish talisman was complete, they hurriedly got out of the way.
At the same time, he clasped his fists and saluted: "See His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
One of the Zhichong Mansion soldiers hurriedly ran towards the barracks, and Li Chengqian did not stop him, but slowed down his horse, so that the generals in Pingyao had time to prepare.
When Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian arrived at the gate of the barracks, a team of officers in full armor also came out of the barracks.
The two sides are meeting at the gate of the barracks.
"The last general, Pingyao Zhichong Mansion, Zhichong Governor Sun Dali, with all the generals of Zhichong Mansion, see His Royal Highness the Prince."
The group that came out of the barracks saw Li Chengqian holding aloft the golden book and gave a military salute to Li Chengqian.
"Excuse me, General Sun, you must have received an order from Chang'an, right?"
Li Chengqian rode on his horse and asked the visitor.
"Yes, the last general has already been ordered by His Majesty to allow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to demolish and relocate."
"Then please ask General Sun to transfer troops and go to Jinyang with me immediately." Li Chengqian said a word to Sun Dali, and then gestured to Zhang Zheng.
Zhang Zheng meeting, dismounted and took out the prime minister's Kanhe and the military department's order from his arms.
Together with the fish talisman in his hand, he handed it to Sun Dali.
Sun Dali took over the three things, and he didn't care that Li Chengqian was still in front of him, but carefully identified the authenticity of several things.
He took out another fish talisman from his arms, and the two fish talismans happened to be a big-headed fish.
The military power is big, and he can't be careless, even if he has already received orders from Chang'an.
But the procedures that should be followed are all the same.
In case something goes wrong, he doesn't have enough heads to cut off.
Originally, the transfer of troops also required the assassin Shi Yizhi Chong Du Lieutenant to inspect the fish book together.
But this time, maybe the transfer of troops is aimed at the assassin Shi, so naturally there is no need for the assassin Shi Fu to come forward.
The army has its own set of means to distinguish the true from the false, and after Sun Dali confirmed that the documents for the transfer of troops were correct, he replied to Li Chengqian:
"Yes, the last general will be ordered, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will enter the camp and sit down, and the last general will go to transfer troops."
Zhechongfu is the name of the military government of the Tang Dynasty. The house is divided into upper, middle and lower three.
There are 1,200 people in the upper house, 1,000 people in the middle government, and 800 people in the lower government, and the soldiers to whom they belong are collectively called guards.
Each prefecture has one lieutenant, one lieutenant on the left and right, one lieutenant on the left and right, and one general for the general, the long history, and the soldier Cao to join the army.
This is an organization at the provincial level. Below the prefectural level, 300 people are in the regiment, and the regiment has a lieutenant and a brigade commander.
Fifty people are a team, with a team leader and a deputy; Ten people are fire, and some have a fire chief.
Pingyao Zhechong Mansion is a central government, and it is fully equipped with 1,000 guards.
Since the Tang Dynasty is a government military system, the guards are all soldiers when they are busy and when they are in war.
Every winter, Captain Zhichong presides over the training of the military formation combat method.
This year, due to the impact of the locust plague, and the Ochichong Prefecture has already received an order.
It was Pingyao Zhichong Mansion that was already full half a month ago.
If you want to come to Jinyang Zhechong Mansion, the state is almost the same as Pingyao.
Pingyao belongs to the border province, and in previous years, it was necessary to bear the heavy responsibility of resisting the invasion of the barbarians in the northern grasslands, so the soldiers were veterans of a hundred battles.
But after this year, the situation will change, because the large grasslands in the north have become the territory of the Tang Dynasty in April.
Soon, the soldiers of the Oshichong Mansion were assembled in the teaching field.
Sun Dali, the commander of Zhichong, came out of the column and replied: "Report to His Royal Highness the Prince, the guards of Pingyao Zhichong Mansion are full of 1,000 people, and there are 1,000 people, please give an order to Your Highness." ”
Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng beat their horses and walked in front of the soldiers of the Dry Folding Mansion.
Li Chengqian is not needed for such a trivial matter as a lecture.
Zhang Zheng stepped out of the column and said loudly to the soldiers of the Zhichong Mansion who were arrayed by the whole army:
"I am His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to entitle Zhang Zheng, a man from Weinan County, and I am also the deposed ambassador who was ordered to come to inspect the east and north provinces of Hedong and Hebei.
And the one next to me is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty.
The purpose of our coming to the state is already clear to you.
There were thieves in the state, and His Majesty dared to withhold and embezzle the grain used to help the locust plague.
It is because of their existence that many people's wives and families have been separated and their families have died, and many people have starved to death on the streets and exposed their bodies in the wilderness.
If these thieves who harm the people are not eliminated, where is the law of the country, and the law of the king is used, and it is difficult for the principles of heaven to exist.
So, now, the whole army is pulling out and going straight to Jinyang City. ”
"Whoa."
As the soldiers clasped their fists in response, a wave of resentment soared into the sky.
And Zhang Zheng wants this effect.
Most of the soldiers in Pingyao Zhichong Mansion are locals in Bingzhou, and the thieves who harm the people in Zhang Zheng's mouth are those corrupt officials in Bingzhou.
And the people who are killed are themselves.
Therefore, Zhang Zheng mobilized the emotions of the soldiers in the palace with a few words.
This is called, the military heart can be used.
Guarding the safety of Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian are still the 100 soldiers who are guarded by the prince.
The soldiers of Pingyao Zhichong Mansion consciously divided into two armies, the front and rear, in accordance with the marching method of the front, middle and rear armies of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Chengqian and Zhang Zheng, as well as the chief general of Pingyao Zhichong Mansion, and Sun Dali, the commander of Zhichong, protected the Chinese army.
The front and rear armies were led by the left and right Guoyi lieutenants.
Towards Jin Yangcheng, two hundred miles away, he pulled out.
……
And Duan Heng's side, as Li Chengqian expected.
Within three days, dozens of waves of manpower intercepted and harassed, which greatly slowed down the speed of the march.
As a result, the large team led by Duan Heng still failed to get out of the Jinju boundary after three days.
On the edge of the Fen River, a place called Qianmaling, since it is called Ling, there are naturally mountains on both sides.
Sandwiched between the two hills is an official road, and the mountain is extremely steep on both sides of the official road.
At the top of one of the mountains, a middle-aged man and a young man were resting on a boulder in the middle of the mountain.
The middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, and the young man was holding a horse lance with a long horse lance in his mouth, and a piece of dog's tail grass in his mouth, and he was looking up to the sky boredly.
If Chen Yu was here, he would definitely be able to recognize the long stick and his master.
It was the master who stopped Chen Yu when Zhang Zheng was assassinated.
And Qianmaling is the place where Duan Heng and his party must pass. Therefore, the purpose of why these two people appear here is self-evident.
On a section of the official road called Baimugou in front of Qianmaling, a handsome little Taoist priest dressed in a gray-blue Taoist robe and carrying a long sword behind him walked with a Jianghu ranger who led a thin horse.
The direction in which the two of them went was the direction in which Duan Heng and the others came.
The ranger carried a gourd larger than a human head in his hand, and poured a mouthful into his mouth from time to time.
