This is...

What a will!

What kind of man is that!

He gathered the army, the people, and the entire Yan country.

He will lead them and enslave all beings!

Can this be done?

What a fantastical idea!

With a history of thousands of years, it is the Han Dynasty that has flourished for a hundred years, and at most it has also expanded its territory to Wolf Juxu Mountain.

He... That man, he is really capable, can lead Yanguo, and go farther than the big man?

No!

Impossible!!

But... However, that man is so eye-catching....

Chai Shao didn't want to believe it, but looking at him, and then at the extremely infectious crowd around him, he hesitated.

For a moment.

Even Chai Shao's heart was full of blood, and he wanted to follow behind that man and fight for the Han people.

"The Grand Duke?"

Guo Chao and several people were also in deep shock at this time, but they were not as terrible as Chai Shaolai.

"I....I'm fine."

Chai Shao smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He looked at the little girl again, and the little girl was even more fanatical than before, what kind of determined look was that?

Chai Shao....Rong Ma has never seen it in his life, even if he has traveled all over the Tang Dynasty, he has rarely seen it.

And in this!

In this whole square, in the whole Yan country, there are so many fanatical eyes, it is incredible!!

This frenzied speech lasted for a long, long time.

Guo Chao and several people were from the Tang Dynasty, and they really couldn't bear the atmosphere of the enemy country, so they suggested that Chai Shao retreat.

But Chai Shao didn't agree.

And he continued to look at it, and looked at it very carefully.

He will use his eyes.

Let's see, how much difference Datang and Da Yan are!

Even if there may be a huge gap, a panicked gap, he has to continue to watch.

.

….…….….….….

Even if it is a grand banquet, there will be a time when it will end.

Chai Shao and the others all left the scene with a stunned mentality.

On this day, they realized what it means to have a heaven outside the sky.

"Big brother, do you want to eat or find a place to live now?"

At this time, the little girl couldn't help but ask.

When Chai Shao heard this, he looked at her with great bitterness: "I think....I want to be quiet." ”

Now he really just wants to be quiet.

The other side.

After Li Kuan left, he took off the golden mask.

Beside him, Princess Changle was waiting for his return early.

See him coming.

Princess Changle smiled and asked, "Second brother, is it necessary?" With a mask. ”

Li Kuan said with a smile: "Changle, as the reputation of Yanguo grows stronger and stronger, there will be people from all over the world, among whom there may be many people from Datang, in order to avoid being targeted by Datang in the process of development, it is necessary to hide it temporarily." ”

"And...."

Li Kuan paused, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Princess Changle was introduced to the topic by him, and couldn't help but say, "And what? ”

Li Kuan continued: "Moreover, there is a great figure in the Tang Dynasty, the governor of Youzhou, Chai Shao. ”

Chai Shao's arrival, since Chai Shao stepped into this land, there were soldiers of the Yan Kingdom who informed him.

Chai Shao is too conspicuous, he is the governor of Youzhou, and most of the people in Yanguo are the people of Youzhou, so even if he is dressed in civilian clothes, there are many people who recognize him.

Of course.

In this land, there is nothing that can be hidden from Li Kuan.

With the arrival of Chai Shao, Li Kuan thought that it was even more necessary for him to wear a mask to avoid being recognized by him, and then informed Admiral Tiance.

It is not advisable to let Admiral Tiance know about the Yan Kingdom now.

The northern part of the Yan Kingdom was still fighting fiercely with Goguryeo, and in order to counter Eulzhi Wende, the White Tiger Battalion, the Tiger and Leopard Battalion, and 5,000 Wei soldiers were sent to a month away, and they had arrived in Liaodong City to garrison.

Most of the troops were dispatched, and there were Turks around him, and at this time, he would definitely send troops to attack him if he knew that he was here.

At that time, there will be a multi-faceted front, which is really not good.

So Li Kuan chose to hide.

And at the moment.

Princess Changle's eyes widened: "Chai Shaochai Metropolitan Governor, he....he's here?" ”

Li Kuan smiled and nodded: "Not bad." ”

"He....with his identity, why did he come to the Yan Country in person?"

"I'm afraid, I'll have to ask him himself."

"Then, second brother, what are you going to do?"

Princess Changle's heart was a little tight, she was a little afraid that Li Kuan would not do a good job against Chai Shao.

After all, Chai Shao is the general of Datang, and she still hopes that Chai Shao will return to Datang safely.

And from the perspective of the Yan Country, this is not the case....

"What should I do?"

Li Kuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately laughed: "I don't know the purpose of his arrival, but I won't embarrass him too much." ”

"Even if it's true, I see how he once mentioned something."

Li Kuan said this, a little melancholy.

When he first joined the army, Chai Shao helped him a lot.

Princess Changle breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, second brother." ”

"Although, my thanks don't help, but still....thank you."

Li Kuan laughed, but didn't care: "How is my wife?" ”

When Princess Changle heard this, she thought about it and said, "According to what the matchmaker said, it is estimated that she will give birth in the next few days. ”

Li Kuan nodded: "Then it's just the right time for me to come back." ”

Continue to chat with Princess Changle about family life.

He also has a better understanding of the current situation in Yanguo, and in the two months after the expedition, he has constantly made up for the gaps in Yanguo.

And Princess Changle also asked him about the battle in Liaodong City.

The information of the two is constantly exchanged with each other.

After saying goodbye to Princess Changle, Li Kuan asked Lin Xunyi to call him.

"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"

Lin Xunyi was a little scared.

He led the beggar army and hundreds of people, joined the Yan country for a long time, and came back with Li Kuan from Liaodong City, and he never saw Li Kuan.

I really don't know what happened when Li Kuan summoned him over.

However.

He didn't know much about Li Kuan, but Li Kuan knew him well.

From Liaodong City to Yanguo, Li Kuandu sent people to monitor this ranger, and came to the conclusion that this person's character had already passed.

"Lin Shaoxia, that's it."

"I want to send you to select the right warriors in Yanyun City and form a new army, and its name will be yours, it is called the Beggars Army."

Li Kuan said what he meant.

When Lin Xunyi heard this, he was taken aback: "Beggar army? Your Majesty wants to form a beggar army? ”

His face was full of disbelief.

Li Kuan nodded at him: "Not bad." ”

"Your Majesty, isn't this...too abrupt? I have seen the army of our Yan Country, and the beggar army does not have the slightest advantage compared to them. ”

"They have excellent armor and excellent weapons, and they are much stronger than our beggar army."

Lin Xunyi told what he had seen and heard in the past few days.

The soldiers of the Yan Kingdom were too strong, so strong that they made him fearful.

That's why.

Lin Xunyi was willing to abandon his armor and return to the field, and let the only remaining begging arms also abandon his armor and return to the field, and they were born together in Yanguo to farm.

"Their equipment is indeed not as good as any army in the Yan Kingdom, but they, who are also the beggar army led by you Lin Xunyi, have a firmer belief than our army."

"You beggars are always willing to risk your life for your life, and you are willing to give your life for the living to protect them."

"What I fancy is your will!"

Li Kuan looked at him and talked eloquently.

When Lin Xunyi heard this, his heart trembled.

Is the will of the beggar army recognized....?

Or an emperor ....

His eyes couldn't help but moisten a little.

In that era of war, there were indeed many beggar soldiers, but with the advent of the era of peace, there were fewer and fewer people who were willing to sacrifice their lives just to protect others.

Oh, yes.

Less and less.

And what can they do to blame the new generation?

Everyone's life is unique, so why die to protect others?

It's understandable to protect your family, but why protect strangers?

So.

Most of the new generation does not understand the belief of the beggar army, which leads to the fact that the number of beggar soldiers is becoming smaller and smaller.

From the hundreds of thousands of people in the place where it was established, it has been decreasing until today only the last two hundred or so beggar soldiers remain.

For a moment, Lin Xunyi thought that the beggar army was going to die out in his generation.

Dead in...reality, exists only in history.

Just like the big man, the white horse is righteous.......

"Nowadays, people still recognize the belief that the beggar army dies for others?"

Lin Xunyi's eyes were moist, and he raised his head and looked at Li Kuan very seriously: "I am a beggar army, the fifty-eighth generation commander, fifty-eight generations ago, but all the commanders of the beggar army unswervingly uphold the belief of dying for others." ”

"If the expansion of the begging army in the Yan country was not formed with this belief, I wouldn't approve of it, and neither would the fifty-eighth generation of beggar army commanders and martyrs."

"The Heavenly King of the Begging Army, the Heavenly King of Ran Min will not approve of it."

When Li Kuan heard this, he didn't hesitate at all, and said with a smile: "What I value is your belief. ”

Between words.

Li Kuan stood up, with pride and arrogance between his eyebrows.

Looking at Lin Xunyi, he opened his hands freely and arrogantly, and said loudly: "Lin Shaoxia, have you ever seen the burning patriotism of the soldiers and people of the Yan Kingdom?" ”

"They are willing to sacrifice their lives for the Empire, and you, have you ever seen that?"

Lin Xunyi looked at the arrogant King Chu in a daze, nodded subconsciously, and his voice choked: "I saw it, I saw it...."

He saw it!

You can see it very clearly!

I saw Yan Guo from Liaodong City, and Yan Guo's speech just now was extremely clear.

Those soldiers, those people, they are willing to shed their blood for the Empire!!

"Hahaha!!"

Li Kuan laughed loudly at the sky, and said a little recklessly: "So, they are all willing to follow your will to beg for a living army." ”

"Even in the whole world, in the whole world, there is no place more suitable for cultivating a new generation of beggars than my Yan Country!"

The voice fell.

Lin Xunyi couldn't help nodding: "Yes, yes!" ”

While speaking, the blood that had been silent in his heart for a long time was constantly rising.

As the person who loves the beggar army the most, only the person who loves it the most can become the commander.

And he, Lin Xunyi, didn't want to see the beggar army sink and disappear into history.

Maybe....

In this land, he can really revive the glory of the beggar army.

"So, Lin Shaoxia, are you willing to form a new beggar army?"

Li Kuan looked at him and stretched out his right hand: "Form them, accompany me to attack the world, and let Yanguo go further." ”

Lin Xunyi looked at the sincere eyes, his eyes were moist, walked in front of Li Kuan, and half-knelt down.

lowered his head, lower than Li Kuan's outstretched right hand.

"Minister, I am willing to go."

He is willing to go.

He is willing to go !!

He is willing to give him a man who can revive the glory of the begging army for generations and conquer the world!

is willing to be this man's general, even if it is a commander, he is willing to accompany this man and fight the world!

Since then.

After the Tiger and Par Battalion, the White Tiger Battalion, the White Robe Battalion, and the Self-Defense Army, the fifth army of the empire was established and completely finalized.

It's called, Beggar's Army!

Begging for life ....

Begging and living in troubled times, dedicating yourself to protecting the lives of others, and living....

….….….….….….

The other side.

Since the dissolution of that crazy speech, General White Tiger is also the living White Tiger Guard, and sent the more than 1,200 sons who died to heaven.

Looking at the rising fire, General White Tiger's eyes flashed with hot and bright red flames, as if there was a god, as if he was crying, but it didn't seem to be.

That's a lot of deaths.

Most of them are veterans who have followed him since Youzhou.

General Baihu's eyes were moist, and his memory couldn't help but be brought back to the scene at the Youzhou checkpoint at that time.

On that day, His Highness asked him and his people to go back to Jiangdong, but it was his willfulness that he chose to return to His Highness's side.

And his soldiers also followed him back, and none of them hesitated, and none of them hesitated, they were all so unswerving.

If they had gone back, they would have been able to reunite with their families, they would have been able to reunite with them!!

But with the wayward him, he came back....

And then it became a foreign place, dry bones ....

At the thought of this, General White Tiger's eyes became more and more moist.

He didn't know how to deal with these white tiger children's families in Jiangdong.

Silence and standing there for a long, long time.

Until the fire stopped.

Only then did General White Tiger turn around.

Behind him, there are three thousand sons who are full again.

There are still many soldiers who have followed him from Youzhou, but more of them have been selected from the land of Yanguo, brand new soldiers.

There were more new soldiers, but these people, like the dead sons, respected him so much, believed in him, that even if he led them to the sun for an hour today, they did not complain.

General White Tiger's eyes moistened again.

They believed in him too much, but he didn't know how many heroic souls he would die on that battlefield after going to Liaodong City this time.

He didn't know how many people he could protect.

"It's time to go...."

There was silence for a long time.

Even though there were a thousand words in his heart that he wanted to express, in the end, all General Baihu could say was such simple and unpretentious words.

And although it was three simple and unpretentious words, the lonely and sad tone made Bai Huwei feel a heavy atmosphere.

"General, your gun."

Walking towards him, it was a newly appointed commander of the White Tiger Guard, who carried the gun of the White Tiger General and handed it to him.

General White Tiger's eyes flickered.

This newly appointed White Tiger Commander not only kept his gun, but also his wife's letters, just because the previous White Tiger Guard Commander had died on the battlefield of Liaodong City.

General White Tiger looked at him, his eyes moist to tears.

He looked at this White Tiger Guard Commander, and looked at it carefully, as if through this person, he saw that the previous White Tiger Guard Commander had turned into a heroic soul, and was hovering in the sky above the new White Tiger Guard Commander, and he was also saying to him, "General, your gun." It's time for us to go. ”

General White Tiger took the gun and looked at the three thousand White Tiger Guards.

Those White Tiger Guards didn't speak, but the White Tiger General seemed to see the heroic spirits suspended above them, the dead ones....White Tiger Guards.

"General, it's time to go."

They seemed to speak in unison.

are urging General White Tiger to go on the expedition.

General Baihu seems to have seen it, they are not afraid of death, even if they do it again, they will choose to continue to return to His Highness with him, rather than go back to Youzhou.

They are not afraid of death....not afraid of death....

Oh, yes!

For the sake of that man, they were never afraid of death.

Just like General Suzaku and his Suzaku battalion, they fought bloodily to the death for His Highness who believed in their hearts, how could his White Tiger Battalion ever weaken them?

"General, it's time to go."

Hazy.

General White Tiger seemed to hear the shouts again, and those foolish heroic spirits seemed to be urging him again.

General White Tiger laughed as he cried: "You guys. ”

He shook his head with a wry smile, then nodded heavily.

"Well, it's time to go........"

.

….….…….….….

The other side.

Guo Shoujing, the principal of the Quanyan Yuncheng School, was organizing the people and preparing to leave for Liaodong City.

Liaodong City was attacked, and in addition to the Goguryeo slaves who were taken away by Silla, there were also 80,000 Goguryeo slaves, which belonged to the Yan Kingdom.

They were still enslaved in Liaodong City, but there were only about 10,000 Han people rescued in Liaodong City, and the number was far from enough.

The first time they were sent from Yanyun City to Liaodong City were 5,000 Wei Wushu and 1,200 new White Tiger Guards who were supplemented.

All soldiers.

And this time, he wanted to select 20,000 Han people, escorted by General Baihu, and go north to Liaodong City to settle in.

This is a move to leave their hometown, and Yanyun City is their hometown for them, so it really belongs to the act of leaving their hometown.

Guo Shoujing is also not sure how many of the people who have settled down are willing to take the initiative to go.

He was ready, if the number of people was not enough, then he would use a lot of money to drive them, or let the refugees who had recently joined the Yan Kingdom drive a lot of money to go, gather enough 20,000 people, and go to Liaodong City.

"How's it going, has the notice been posted?"

Guo Shoujing asked.

A self-defense commander replied, "It's almost all pasted." ”

Guo Shoujing nodded, and was about to continue speaking.

But at this moment, it was the Self-Defense Army soldiers who rushed in.

"Headmaster, no! There are so many people out there! ”

Guo Shoujing was slightly stunned, and then quickly replied: "Let's go, take me to have a look." ”

He followed the SDF soldier and walked away quickly.

Guo Shoujing didn't feel right.

Why are so many people gathered at this time, could it be that it has something to do with the notice?

Yes, it must be!

After all, there had never been such a scene before, and he couldn't think of anything other than posting a notice to Liaodong City for the people to gather here.

Come outside.

Guo Shoujing's heart sank to the bottom.

There are many people, some holding children, some elderly, and crowded, compared to the situation of His Majesty's speech not long ago.

And in the gathering of so many people, no one spoke, which made the scene silent.

He suddenly wandered a little.

"What, what's wrong?"

He asked the people at the front.

The people were silent at the moment, but soon a woman came out with a child in her arms.

"President Guo, is it true that the notice that requires people to go to Liaodong City to live?"

She looked at Guo Shoujing with a serious look in her eyes.

Guo Shoujing forced a smile: "Well, really." ”

"But....Your Majesty's will?"

"Well, naturally."

"Then, I'm willing to go!"

When she heard that it was the man's will, the woman did not hesitate to go.

Guo Shoujing was slightly stunned: "You go by yourself?" ”

"No, my family, all of them!"

"Although I am uprooted from my hometown, there is still more than a month to go on the road, but I have discussed with a few members of my family, as long as it is His Majesty's will, he needs someone to go to Liaodong City, then my family will go."

"Even if it is far inferior to Yanyun City, I will go there!"

In her eyes, there was only seriousness.

Guo Shoujing was shocked and was about to speak, but the woman's words were like opening a chatterbox, making the crowd no longer calm.

"Yes, I'll go too!"

"Me too!"

"I'm too...."

“…….”

At noon, one by one, they signed up enthusiastically.

They are all the first batch of people in Yanyun City, watching Yanyun City grow up, continue to grow, and become a big city that is more prosperous than Chang'an City today.

Yanyun City can be said to be the best place in their lives, there is no one.

So they knew that Liaodong City was definitely not as good as Yanyun City.

It is equivalent to abandoning the city and taking the initiative to live in the countryside.

But even so, as long as the man asks for it, they are willing....swear to die.

The sea of people gradually became surging and excited.

One by one, one sentence at a time, it got bigger and bigger, and it was almost like a vegetable market.

Guo Shoujing looked at them, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time, and he was completely shocked.

….….….….….….

Following.

Chang'an City.

This is the second day that Cheng Yanjin has returned.

Morning.

In the main hall, hundreds of officials stood together, solemn and solemn.

Li Shimin slowly walked to the dragon chair and sat down with great solemnity.

His gaze swept over the hundred senses, and his fingers tapped lightly on the dragon chair.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have something to do?"

Li Shimin asked slowly.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a performance."

The eldest grandson Wuji is listed.

"Say, eldest grandson."

Li Shimin spoke.

Although he is very familiar with the eldest grandson Wuji, it is in private, and he still has to maintain the basic title of monarch and minister at the court meeting.

"Your Majesty, yesterday Your Majesty informed many local officials about the corruption of Youzhou, and the minister, in accordance with Your Majesty's orders, has dismissed the county orders of the sixteen county towns in Youzhou Hedong Road, and those sixteen people have all been put in prison and are waiting for new punishments."

"In addition, more than 400,000 quintals of grain have been found from the granaries of these 16 county towns, all of which have been guarded by officers and soldiers, and they can be opened for grain release from now on."

The dismissal of 16 county magistrates pending trial was Li Shimin's temptation.

These sixteen people were all members of the clan, and he wanted to see what they would say about their deposition.

If the reaction is violent, then take a step back, if not, then....heavy punishment!

"Hmm."

Listening to the eldest grandson Wuji's report, Li Shimin nodded slowly.

However, the next moment, the eldest grandson Wuji was a little hesitant and said: "It's just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that those people in Hedong Province have run away and many people have left, even if they release grain, they can't release much."

The eldest grandson Wuji was a little helpless.

Li Shimin's eyes flashed instantly, and he sighed: "This is also....there is no way to do it, after all, it is Datang who treats them badly." ”

As he spoke, Li Shimin looked at those clans to see what they looked like.

He saw it, he saw that those clans were high up and had nothing to do with him.
