Three days later, this was the day when Cushman & Wakefield ordered the army to go on the march.

In the west of the palace, in front of the Tongque Terrace in Tongque Garden, the ministers looked at the 40,000 troops under the black pressure, and their mood was extremely moved and agitated.

These 40,000 people stood in a neat phalanx, like pieces of iron plates spliced together, as if they were indestructible, and the aura of slaughter came to their faces.

Unified ordnance, unified saddle sheath, unified armor, unified battle flag, and even the standing posture is exactly the same.

This momentum is so amazing that the bronze bird seems to have become a sea of steel, as long as the wind and clouds move, it will set off the stormy waves and shatter everything!

At this time, the armor and blades of the Northern Qi Dynasty were not unified, some soldiers wore the armor handed down from their ancestors when they joined the army, and some even wore grassland fur furs on the battlefield, and there were a small number of ununified services, but the costumes, battle armor, and blades of the 40,000 people here were all "official standard", and they looked much better, and the neat momentum alone was enough to make people frightened.

Not only that, Cushman also ordered the creation of stirrups and horseshoes, which greatly improved the combat capability of the cavalry. As for the armor, it was mainly plate armor, with a double layer of thickened abdomen to improve defensive performance, and the military flag was based on black and red as a badge.

Rao is a lord who has experienced a hundred battles, and has seen many scenes of marching and fighting like a landslide on the battlefield, but he still feels shocked.

Hu Luguang's mouth was almost to the root of his ears, two days ago he went to the Privy Council to counsel the military, but he didn't see that His Majesty wanted to transfer that force to him, he was wondering in his heart, he went to Gao Wei to ask, but Gao Wei only said: You will know when the time comes.

Although he was prepared, Hu Luguang still felt that this surprise came too suddenly!

Where did Your Majesty get these soldiers?

Not only did he want to ask, but the nobles also wanted to ask, and Wei Xiangyuan was the first to can't help it: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, where did such a strong soldier come from, and the ministers have never heard of it?" ”

If that noble had such good soldiers under his command, wouldn't they know?

Gao Wei smiled slightly, and said: "The first 10,000-person phalanx in front, this is the Beida Camp under the jurisdiction of King Lanling, and the rest are all removed from your family guards and transferred to this army......

"............" The nobles are all in pain when they think about it, no wonder they look at this army as a rare elite, it turns out that their guards were formed after they were laid off.

On the night of King Langya's rebellion, the army that invaded the imperial city was pieced together by the ministers who supported King Langya, and used their home guards to make it up. Don't think that the lord is a small role such as a domestic servant, but he is from a serious military background, and he has more or less made military achievements.

These people are often the lords who followed them on the battlefield in the past and made meritorious deeds, and when they were knighted, they were transferred to their side as security forces in various names, to put it bluntly, this is a group of soldiers, the absolute elite of the rest of their lives on the battlefield.

Don't talk about them, let's talk about the Hu Lu family, the Hu Lu family is now the first of the lords of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the Hu Lu family is wealthy, and has tens of thousands of domestic servants and maids, of which such veterans have raised nearly two thousand.

It's a pity that most of them were taken away by Gao Wei's edict, and only more than a hundred private troops remained, which was still for face, and the other princes were less than forty or fifty.

There are also things that seem to be concealed, but when King Ande took the holy decree in his hand and led the patrol battalion to search people one by one, they couldn't stop it at all, although they still didn't report accurately, but the thugs in the family were still cut off more than 80 percent, which made the lords feel heartbroken.

You must know that the lords and ministers are not raising these private soldiers with good martial arts to be so boring as thugs and caretakers, these private soldiers can follow them to the battlefield, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, if there is such a pair of powerful and loyal men and horses by their side, not to mention that they must make meritorious contributions, their lives can still be guaranteed.

Hu Luguang made friends happily, only asked how to arrange these people, when King Ande said that he would be assigned to the patrol battalion first, he was temporarily relieved, at least the treatment of the patrol battalion was no worse than in the army, and it could be regarded as worthy of these old brothers who had followed him from birth to death, but Hu Lvguang did not expect to lead them again in such a situation.

How could he have thought that Cushman would put the patrol battalion into the battle sequence?

His Majesty said that he would give him 40,000 elites, and sure enough, it was 40,000 elites, although Gao Changgong's soldiers did not seem to have seen blood, but the military discipline was very good, and the actions were quite the true meaning of military orders, and the other teams were Qi Lianmeng, Fu Fu, and Xue Guyan as generals.

Needless to say, Xue Guyan is a famous fierce general in Northern Qi, when he fought with the Western Wei Dynasty, he cut fifteen knives in one battle, Gao Huan praised and said: "Xue Guyan can fight with thunderbolts!" It shows that his bravery is like this.

Although Fu Fu's reputation is not obvious now, Gao Wei knows that Fu Fu is a rare loyal minister of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and he is brave and good at fighting, so Gao Wei decided to give Fu Fu a chance to make contributions.

Qi Lianmeng is relatively undisciplined, first took refuge in Er Zhurong, and then defected to Er Zhuzhao, and finally followed Wei Jingming, and soon after Wei Jing recommended this kid to Gao Huan, Qi Lianmeng's character is not good, but he is righteous and very capable of fighting.

Therefore, this kid's career is like riding a rocket, in the fifth year of Tiantong, in addition to the merger of the provincial Shangshu Order, leading the general, and sealing the king of Shanyang, it is also very prominent.

However, this product has been unlucky recently, because Zhao Yanshen participated in Gao Wei digging a pit for Xunchen, Zhao Yanshen felt that it was not enough for Wenchen to do it alone, and he had to arrange a person of his own, and Zhao Yanshen felt that Qi Lianmeng belonged to one of the few people he was "used to" among Xunchen, so he frowned in private, Zhao Yanshen said implicitly: "What are you doing with those nobles?" There is no future for them, so why don't you follow us, we have a big boss here, and if you do a good job, you can recommend you in front of the saint. Get promoted and get rich......"

Qi Lianmeng believed it, so every time the lord impeached Zhao Yanshen to find fault, Qi Lianmeng stood up and accused the nobles with righteous words, and the nobles were confused, why are you standing over there?

So Qi Lianmeng didn't have time to wait for Zhao Yanshen's recommendation, but unfortunately waited for a beating from the ministers.

How can the nobles tolerate a man whose elbow is turned outward?

[Do you think your father is Hu Luguang and Duan Shao, the two old boys? ] 】

So soon the information about Qi Lianmeng's corruption and deduction of soldiers' salaries was handed to Gao Wei, and Qi Lianmeng was demoted and deprived of his official position......

Sure enough, the old man's words can't be trusted......

However, this time he still has the opportunity to follow Hu Luguang to make military achievements.

In fact, Gao Wei really couldn't find a suitable person, so he remembered Qi Lianmeng.

Qi Lianmeng also has a shining point on his body, doesn't he? As long as you have the ability, why do you care so much about the rest?

How does Hu Luguang think of this army, how satisfied, this is the most luxurious lineup in Northern Qi at present!

[But more than 30,000 people are too much? 】

He himself knows that even if the nobles add up, it is impossible to raise more than 20,000 private soldiers, so how did these 30,000 people come here?

"Your Majesty, is this number not right, it seems that there are too many ......, and the lords can't raise so many soldiers......"

Gao Wei calmly let out an "oh" and said, "Almost half of the people in it are private soldiers let out by the Hebei family, there is not much difference......

Hebei family?!

Those Han people?!

In the minds of the lords, thunder rolled in an instant, and Tongque Taizhong immediately became noisy!
