Chapter 232 The Seventh Year of King Qin's Reign (End of the Month, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The Qin State in the seventh year of the reign of the Qin Dynasty was destined to be unpeaceful, when Yang Ming personally trained the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army in Shanglin Yuan, in the city of Xianyang, the former general of the Qin State died in early May.
The death of Meng Fu represents the death of his era, and now, the only person who belongs to his era and is still a general in the Qin army is Wang Qi, the commander of the Pingyang Heavy Armored Army who sits in Hedong and Taiyuan.
Less than half a month after Meng Yufang's death, Qin Wangzheng's grandmother Empress Dowager Xia also collapsed in Zhiyang Palace, and the death of this Empress Dowager Xia quietly changed the power structure of Qin.
Before she died, this old woman used her influence to completely push Chang'an Jun Chengcheng to the forefront, and by the way, she took the post of the chief secretary of the Protector's Mansion in her hands, and at the same time, a name that Yang Ming was not unfamiliar with also appeared in front of him: Fan Yuzhi.
Chang'an Jun Cheng Cheng recommended Fan Yu to enter the Protector's Mansion and serve as the head of the Chinese Scholar, what his purpose was, Yang Ming didn't care at all, after all, when Cheng Cheng Cheng really walked into the front desk, his life had almost entered the countdown.
As the time entered the late summer and early autumn, the Qin dynasty was once again the theme of war.
After the battle of the five kingdoms to attack Qin, the Qin State has begun to counterattack the countries, and the Qin State won a complete victory in the six-year battle of destroying the Wei Dynasty, and in the seven years of the Qin Dynasty, the Qin State threw its goal into the battle of the day, contributing the most and attacking the most fierce Zhao State.
Now, when the Empress Dowager Xia died, Ganquan Palace was addicted to pleasure, and the people of the Chu family chose to wait for the opportunity, with the help of the prestige of the great victory over the countries, Lü Buwei, whose reputation was becoming more and more noble, could be said to be above the rising sun, so the plan to attack Zhao was quickly implemented within the Qin State.
Huan Qi, who was an important general of Qin by Lü Buwei in the original battle of Hezhong, finally became a general this time, commanding 50,000 troops, as the front army to attack Zhao.
And in this process, for some reason, the seventeen-year-old Chang'an Jun Chengcheng also entered the army and was appointed as the commander of the rear army.
This is an opportunity for the adult, but it can also be a trap.
However, all this has little to do with Yang Ming, because he still has his own things to do.
After a few months, the training of the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army has been nearly completed, and the military camp belonging to Shanglin Yuan has also been doubled, and armaments and war horses have been sent to Shanglin Yuan one after another.
The Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army has gradually ceased to be a name, but has become a real army.
On the field of the Central Military Academy in Shanglin Yuan, 27,000 soldiers were divided into about 27,000 soldiers, and after several months of training, the specific situation of each soldier has been recorded, and the establishment has been redivided along with the specific situation of each soldier.
There were six battalions of the right guard, one battalion of heavy cavalry, three battalions of light cavalry, another battalion of archers, and one battalion of chariot soldiers.
The six battalions of the left guard, are all infantry, compared to the division of the right guard in detail, the foot soldiers of the left guard are not so classified, there are only foot soldiers, according to the regular establishment of the Qin army, in each battalion, there are archers, sword and shield hands, pikemen composition, although simple, but also the most practical combination in the world.
In the silent silence, the entire military camp was shrouded in an atmosphere of solemnity, and the military was successful.
"Do you know why we have the military name of the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army?" Under the gaze of a pair of eyes, Yang Ming finally spoke.
In the past few months, Yang Ming has completely penetrated the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army, including the Guards Battalion, which has victories and failures, except for the first battle of the tenth battalion, Yang Ming is considered a failure, in the following six battles, Yang Ming won three victories and three defeats, which brought the training of the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army to a successful end.
In the battle that lasted for more than a month, the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army saw Yang Ming's strength, and also saw that Yang Ming was so powerful, and still had the limit of strength, they were just ordinary soldiers, because of unity, because of courage, they defeated Yang Ming, a seemingly invincible existence, four times.
But they will not look down on Yang Ming because of this, but because of Yang Ming's attitude in the face of defeat, they will recognize Yang Ming more.
In the army, the strong are worshipped, but what is the strong that the soldiers recognize? Is it the combat power of one against a thousand?
Yes, but not all, martial arts is the most important thing for soldiers, but in addition, there are other things, although there are few people with strong martial arts, but there is no shortage in this world, but there are not many generals who can be truly recognized by the whole army.
War generals, because of the power from the imperial court, can lead a large army, can make soldiers obey orders, such a general can only be called a general, not a real commander, only a general who has been truly recognized by the whole body can be called a commander.
And how can a general be recognized by the whole army? The easiest way is to win, and when a general can lead his army to continuous victory, he will naturally be recognized by the rest of the army.
However, this method is only applicable to Yang Ming in the future, but not to Yang Ming now, because Yang Ming can only use another more complex method to win the hearts of the army, and whether it can be recognized by the whole army is related to how far this army can go in the future.
Fortunately, Yang Ming's results were not bad.
"The Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army, the right battalion should be the dragon horse, and the left guard should be the tiger guard, collectively known as the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army."
"You must remember this name, it will accompany you for the rest of your life, and in the future, you will be proud of yourself as a soldier of the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army."
"However, this pride needs to be forged by your own hands."
When the Dragon and Tiger Forbidden Army first became an army, the newly appointed Qin general Huan Qi had already led 30,000 Qin troops to the Dahe crossing, and they would recruit 20,000 Pingyang heavy armor troops in Taiyuan County, go out of Taihang Mountain, and attack the hinterland of Zhao State, seeking to cut off the connection between Zhao Capital and the northern border of Zhao State, and then create an opportunity for the rear army of Qin Army, 50,000 Qin troops from Shangdang to attack Zhao Capital.
This was a war planned by Lü Buwei himself, a war that no one knew from the beginning that it would develop in an uncontrollable direction, perhaps, Lü Buwei knew.
In the summer of early autumn, Xiong Qi's concubine was about to be full moon, and Yang Ming naturally became the object of invitation, and the person who sent the invitation was still someone Yang Ming was not easy to refuse.
"Who did Changping Jun invite?" In the Yang Mansion, Yang Ming, who was looking at the invitation, asked Concubine Yan.
The Yin and Yang family intends to reach cooperation with the Qin State through the Chu family, and the Chu family also intends to win over the Yin and Yang family in order to enhance their own strength, therefore, Concubine Yan at this time has a very high status in Huayang Palace, therefore, if Yang Ming wants to know who will participate in the full moon banquet of Xiong Qi, the eldest daughter, he only needs to inquire about Concubine Yan.
"There are quite a lot of invited guests, because the Empress Dowager Huayang will also be there in person, so that many relatives outside the sect participate, by the way, there is also the prince Dan of Yan Kingdom." Concubine Yan said.
In the past few months, the number of times she has been in contact with Yang Ming has gradually increased, and as time goes by, she really has a bit of a brother and sister.
"Xiong Qi is really cunning." Yang Ming looked at the invitation card in his hand, shook his head and smiled.
"What's the matter, senior brother? But what's wrong? Hearing Yang Ming talk about Xiong Qi's no, Concubine Yan subconsciously asked, she only thought that Xiong Qi had something else in mind.
"He's going to eat it, I can't help it." Yang Ming put down the invitation card in his hand and said.
"What do you mean by that?" Concubine Yan said curiously, Yang Ming's words were beyond her comprehension, and they were really a little inexplicable.
"Xiong Qi's guests, except for Yan Dan, are either clans or relatives, I don't want to go to such a party, but now I have no reason to refuse." Yang Ming said helplessly.
"Why can't you say no?" Concubine Yan asked.
"Because of you, junior sister." Yang Ming stood up and said.
"Me?" Concubine Yan was surprised, and there was a lot of confusion in her expression, but the confusion was only a moment, and it was quickly replaced by two blush halos.
"Senior brother is talking nonsense again." Concubine Yan, who only felt that her cheeks were slightly hot, glanced at Yang Ming, although she was shy, but she was not annoyed.
In the past few months of communication, Yang Ming has been abrupt from time to time, from the initial shame, but later, the current Concubine Yan has been able to accept the banter from Yang Ming that it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.
"It's just that there is one more thing that I want my junior sister to help with." Yang Ming said with a sad face.
"What does Senior Brother need me to do?" Concubine Yan asked rhetorically.
"As a guest, I want to give a gift, and my sister also saw it, and there is nothing here, so I still need my sister's help for this gift." Yang Ming said.
"Huh?" Concubine Yan couldn't react for a while: Yang Ming wants to be a guest, but she wants to give herself a gift? Isn't there anything wrong with that.
"Senior sister, as the Dongjun of the Yin and Yang Family, must have a lot of treasures, right?" Yang Ming asked.
"Senior brother, I have a lot of treasures, but I can't carry them with me." Concubine Yan said helplessly, at this time, she understood it.
"Really? In that case, I won't be able to go. Yang Ming sat down again.
"Senior brother, you ...... Isn't this a bummer? Concubine Yan didn't know what she was talking about at this time.
"No way, I didn't have to go, this trouble was caused by you, junior sister, so you can only solve it." Yang Ming said.
"This?" Concubine Yan also fell into hesitation for a while, and then subconsciously touched her waist with her palm, where there was a valuable jade pendant.
"Is this okay?" Concubine Yan hesitated for a moment, but still untied the jade pendant on her waist.
"The things that Dongjun of the Yin and Yang Family shot are really not mortal, they are enough." Yang Ming took the jade pendant and put it in his arms.
"Shall we go, then? It's not too early now. Concubine Yan urged, it's not too early.
