Chapter Twenty-Four: The Black Army

"I'm leaving, you pay attention to your body in the palace, if you have something to send someone to the beauty shop, our business, don't worry, wait for me in the palace to marry you, you are not allowed to see other sons, especially the eldest grandson Chong, do you hear."

"I know, I've been talking about it hundreds of times, that's so domineering, who said that I must marry you, huh?"

"Gone......"

Li Lizhi covered her right cheek with her hand, and blushed as she watched her lover get on the horse and gallop away.

"I hate ...... death"

Li Yong suddenly kissed lightly on the right cheek of Li Lizhi, and then took Xue Rengui and others to ride away in a dashing manner, Li Lizhi watched Li Yong and others slowly disappear in the eyeliner, she stroked the face kissed by Li Yong with her right hand, and held the Xishan Army waist card left by Li Yong to her with her left hand, Li Yong told her that as long as she encountered danger, she could use this waist card to seek protection from the Xishan Army stronghold outside the southern city, what Li Lizhi didn't know was that the waist card that Li Yong gave her was different from the old bachelor's, and the old bachelor not only had to show the waist card, but also had to use the code, And the waist card in her hand is Li Yong's special waist card, which is quite as long as the Xishan Army sees this waist card, no matter where anyone is, they must salute and obey the order.

"I'll wait for you, I'll be waiting for you......"

Li Lizhi waited for Li Yong and the others to be completely invisible before getting into the carriage and returning to the palace, Li Yong said to Gundam who was squatting beside him with his head in his hands in the small courtyard in the valley.

"I'm brave enough, as soon as I returned to Xishan, I heard Uncle Xu tell me that you went to Widow Zhang's house again?"

"No, I was wronged."

"Squat, hold your head in your hands, squat, I tell you, you'd better be honest and fight for leniency."

"There really is no ......"

"Got you talking? If you want to speak, raise your hand and shout the report. ”

"Report."

"Wait!"

Damn, there's still no end, if I hadn't beaten you, Lao Tzu would have fought hard with you, don't say it, that widow is really good, Li Yong looked at Gundam with an obscene look, and wanted to kick him to death, Xue Rengui also raised his eyebrows when he saw it, this thing should have been beaten by the commander, and he couldn't help but think of the old bachelor with human shells.

"You think about it, and then write down your guilt, and the number of words cannot be less than 10,000 words."

After Li Yong finished speaking, he took Xue Rengui to the Houshan Xishan military camp, and didn't care about shouting at Gundam in the courtyard.

"Boss~ No, I don't know so many words!"

After Li Yong returned to the Xishan camp, Li Yong changed into his special armor and saber with the help of the orderly, his armor was the same as everyone else, it was a pitch-black armor, but the mask was the three-eyed Erlang God, because Li Yong felt that the Erlang God Yang Jian was the god of law enforcement in the heavenly court, representing this justice, Li Yong moved all the joints of his body, and felt that the neck, shoulders, wrists, fingers, waist, legs, knees, and ankles were all moving freely. This Xishan armor has been modified many times before it was finalized and mass-produced, and there are no dead ends in all-round protection of the body, ordinary swords, arrows and crossbows cannot produce effective damage, of course, there are weaknesses, blunt weapons are its nemesis, and there is a powerful eight-bull crossbow such a lethal weapon, and that thing is a string of blood gourds when a crossbow goes down.

"The order will go down, and the whole army will urgently assemble in armor and full armor."

"Yes!"

The herald stood up and saluted Li Yong and then turned around to beat the emergency assembly drum, the rapid drum sound made the entire Xishan military camp boil like boiling water, one after another the soldiers in the barracks put armor on each other, gathered at the fastest speed, and then under the command of their respective officers, the whole team counted the number of people, one team after another team of fully armed soldiers shouted "one, two, three, four" neat pace trotting, Li Yong stood on the stage and watched his Xishan military order ban, has achieved the effect of modern militarization, and later with the use of firearms, Then his Xishan army will be a peerless strong army that sweeps the world.

"Report to the commander, after the Xishan Army has been assembled, it should be three hundred and fifty people, but it is actually three hundred and thirty people, please instruct."

Why are there twenty less, because those twenty people are still in the stronghold outside Chang'an City, Li Yong gave Xue Rengui a salute back, and then said to all his soldiers.

"You have put on the new armor and weapons, it's very powerful, right? Black knives are also sharp, right? Today's emergency gathering is to let you know that the war has not been far away from us, it is outside the side, you always remember that we are soldiers, soldiers take it as their responsibility to protect their homes and defend the country, every grain of food you eat, every piece of meat you eat, as well as the training uniforms, shoes, including armor, etc., are all the hard work of the villagers in Xishan, squeezed out of the teeth, everyone firmly remembers to me, you are the people's soldiers, you can kill the enemy mercilessly, However, we must not attack the unarmed people, even if some of you retire in the future, you must keep in mind the spirit of the Xishan Army, tomorrow, the Xishan Army will enter a state of readiness, and the commanders of each company will shed blood. Others disbanded. ”

"Bring it back to each platoon."

"Turn right, run and walk ......"

The neat running sound of "boom, boom, boom ......" filled the entire barracks, and the company commander who was left behind followed Li Yong and asked Xue Rengui secretly with the audacity.

"Battalion commander, commander, what's the matter?"

Xue Rengui glanced at the company commander and whispered.

"You kid is asking the right person, I don't know, who to ask."

Xue Rengui and others followed Li Yong back to the military conference room with a question mark, Xue Rengui and the company commanders looked at the bright large conference room, there was a huge picture hanging on the wall, Li Yong asked everyone to sit down, the orderlies poured water for each officer and retreated to the side, Li Yong took off his helmet and handed it to the orderlies, and looked at the straight officers who were sitting.

"Take off your helmet."

Xue Rengui and the others neatly took off their helmets and put them on the table.

"Okay, everyone drink water, and I brought you here today to discuss something with you, and I don't have to be so serious."

Li Yong used to belong to the navy, although the training on weekdays is much the same, but the combat is not a system at all, any company commander present can completely blow him up, so professional things still need professional people, to learn to delegate power, everyone knows that their commander is usually very approachable, when he hears that he doesn't need to be so serious, he also relaxes and drinks water, the orderly soldiers continue to add water to these commanders, Li Yong sees that they are also relaxed, ready to start talking about his purpose and plan.

"You have also seen this map, that's right, this is the Turkic topographic map, this is drawn by our intelligence bureau intelligence officers at a huge cost, it is stained with the blood of our intelligence officers for twelve years, they are just for us to fight the Turks in the future, so that our soldiers can live one more life back, our Tang and the Turks will inevitably go to war again, and it is not the kind of death you die and I die, originally the saint will go to war next year, but in the face of this locust plague, you must not give up, but I believe that after the imperial court deals with the locust plague again, I will definitely rearm again, I expect that there will be a war in two years, what do you think. ”

Xue Rengui and other officers began to ponder when they heard his words, when these officers first entered the Xishan Army, they were illiterate, but under Xue Rengui's careful teaching and their hard work, not only can they read and write, all kinds of military topographic maps or something, they are not bad in terms of premonition of war, in Xue Rengui's words, it is a group of war maniacs, after all the thinking for a while, Xue Rengui stood up first.

"Report."

"There is no need to stand up, we are now having a military meeting, there is no need to shout a report, everyone speaks freely."

"Yes, first of all, I agree with the commander's opinion that this war cannot be avoided and will break out in the short term, and as soldiers, we resolutely obey orders."

After Xue Rengui finished speaking, the other company commanders exchanged with each other in a low voice, and they all agreed with Xue Rengui's point of view, seeing that they didn't speak, Li Yong took over and said.

"Do you think the same as Xue Rengui?"

"Yes."

"Well, we have all unified our minds now, now I will talk about my plan, first of all, our numbers are definitely not enough, this time I went out to raise money, now there is no need to worry about money and food, I plan to expand the Xishan Army to 4,000 people, 3,000 combat troops, 1,000 logistics support troops, 1,000 people as a regiment, combat troops are divided into conventional troops and special operations troops, logistics support troops are composed of baggage troops and military doctors in each company, your task is to start recruiting from tomorrow, Priority is given to the displaced people of this locust plague, and it is required that it must be kept secret and kept secret, so that the imperial court cannot find out about our army, you are responsible for the training of recruits, and the junior officers of each company are also assessed and screened by you, and the middle and senior officers are assessed by me and Xue Rengui, understand? ”

"Yes."

Li Yong and the others then put the details of conscription and recruit training need to be perfected, one by one, and then form the meeting minutes, Xue Rengui led the three company commanders to leave the conference room and began to prepare the conscription plan, Li Yong was busy with everything in the barracks, and then went to the research institute to arrange armaments, because now the armaments of the Xishan Army are produced in the research institute, where in addition to safety, there are conditions for large-scale production, the craftsmen and workers who received the notice to increase armaments are like chicken blood, rolled up their sleeves and prepared to start overtime manufacturing, When Li Yong returned to his small courtyard, Gundam lit the lamp and bit the tip of his pen to write his confession seriously, and he didn't notice Li Yong standing behind him at all.

"Do you like Widow Zhang?"

When Gundam heard Li Yong's voice, he was frightened, thinking to himself, why do you walk silently, people are scary and scared to death.

"Uh......"

"If you don't like it, hurry up and make it clear to others, apologize when you should apologize, apologize when you should apologize, and apologize when you should apologize, so that people can find a good person to marry as soon as possible."

"No, I like it, it's just ......"

"That's what, a manly husband, what is my mother-in-law like, I've also seen that widow, she is good, she looks good, your kid has a very poisonous eye, although she is a widow, but I can see that she really likes you and wants to live with you, you also like her, you should deal with this matter as soon as possible, and I plan to take the Xishan army to fight against the Turks the year after tomorrow, and you will have a lot of things to do."

"Boss, are you really going to go to the Turks? Can you take me with you? ”

When Gao Da heard Li Yong say that he was going to go to the Turks, he stood up excitedly, how could he, who was originally in the army, not yearn for it.

"I will move to the Xishan camp tomorrow to preside over military affairs, your task now is to form a business team, cultivate some people with business, and let our products blossom in all corners of Datang, only by making more money, can we build a more powerful Xishan army, do you understand?"

Gao Gao has long understood this truth, don't look at him as a big boss, but he has a unique talent in business, otherwise he would not be able to be Li Yong's manager.

"Yes, Boss, I wrote down what you said."

"Also, when I was not in the yard, I demolished the hut and rebuilt it, and I have already drawn the blueprints, so you can build it according to my drawings."

Li Yong's various plans are carried out seriously in Gundam, Xue Rengui and others without discounting, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling began to crack down on the sky-high grain with the help of the old bachelor, and the continuous grain was transported to the flat granary of the imperial court, in order to avoid the people of the family from making trouble, they sold it every ten days according to the household registration, and the large amount of grain stored by the family resisted for half a month and finally collapsed, and they began to sell food at a low price, and the price of grain was once as low as ten wen and one bucket before the locust plague, and a grain price war was resolved in this way, and the families lost all their money, The imperial court solved the matter perfectly, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling asked Li Yong for a martial officer of the Renyong Lieutenant on the nine grades as agreed, after Li Yong got the edict and official uniform, he threw it directly into the closet and did not look at it, Li Yong also complained that he wore this green official uniform like a fly to death.

The half-month conscription of the Xishan Army was basically completed, Li Yong looked at the playground full of young men of various colors, as if he saw the black army like a black ocean in the future, Li Yong looked at the people below seriously, and thought, my name is Li Yong, my name is Li Yong in this era, I am Li Yong, Li Yong is me, from today on, I am Li Yong of this era, Li Yong, the leader of this future black army Li Yong.
