Chapter 360: The Great Soldiers

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the Bianjing University campus was unfurled with flags and drums and horns, and the Western Expedition officially kicked off.

It's also funny to say that Tong Guan set the date of the big soldiers at this time, and posted a list to inform the whole city, which originally had only one purpose, that is, to recall the missing Bai Sheng.

The seventeenth prohibition of the Great Song Dynasty Military Law and the fifty-four slashes are not for fun, he believes that as long as Bai Sheng sees or hears about this matter, he will definitely come to order it as scheduled.

The original meaning of the point is that in ancient times, officials or soldiers should routinely take attendance by roll call every day. But there are other times in the military that need to be called by name, which is also called a point.

Tong Guan thought that if Bai Sheng dared not to come to the point, it would be tantamount to admitting the crime of escaping from the battle, which would be executed. On the contrary, if Bai Sheng came to order Mao as scheduled, he could pull Bai Sheng to the emperor to ask for merit.

But he never expected Bai Sheng to show up yesterday afternoon, so today's big soldier turned into a redundant oolong incident.

Because usually after the order of troops, it is the oath, that is, the big leader does the pre-war mobilization, and after the oath, the army will go to the front.

But the emperor has already verbally decided that the three major armies will be drawn at the beginning of February, what are the soldiers doing when they finish at 16 o'clock in the first month?

Tong Guan also has a way, which is called a strong soldier and a horse, sharpening his guns in battle, training the military posture and military appearance in advance, and making full preparations for the upcoming big war.

In addition, he also planned to arrange for the assembled elite of the 400,000 forbidden army to march through the streets of the capital, on the one hand, to show the might of the Great Song Forbidden Army, and on the other hand, to cooperate with the Kaifeng Mansion to hunt down the assassin who was at large.

Although the assassin who cut off the emperor's dragon root hiding in the shadows may still be Bai Sheng, it is necessary to continue to search for him.

How great a sin is it to castrate the emperor? Even if the emperor issued a gag order and blocked the news within the smallest scope, it did not mean that the murderer was allowed to escape justice.

If the murderer is not caught, the case will not be closed. Not only that, but the emperor even issued an order to solve the case within a time limit, and the murderer could not be caught within ten days, and all the officials below Yin Tengzhong and filial piety in Kaifeng Mansion were dismissed on the spot!

So Teng Zhongxiao is also begging his grandfather to tell his grandmother to find someone to help him everywhere, Tong Guan and Gao Yu are among his begging. Therefore, there is a forbidden army parade in the streets after the big soldiers.

At this moment, Tong Guan and Gao Yu are sitting in the stands on the north side of the Daxiao Field, these two people respectively control part of the military power of the Great Song Dynasty, Tong Guan is the supreme leader of the Privy Council, Gao Yu is the supreme leader of the Sanya (the front division of the palace and the guard Ma Jun Division, the guard infantry military division), and the power in the hands of the two can be combined to deploy the national forbidden army.

The two leaders watched as the columns of sergeants entered the stadium in full gear, and after counting the number of people in the field, they went out to march in the "capital" unit.

The structure of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army was based on 100 people as one capital, five capitals as one command, five commanders as the army, and ten armies as the compartments.

The commanders are: the head of the infantry army, the head of the horse army (also known as the military envoy), the commander of the army, the commander of the army, the commander of the army, and the commander of the carriage.

This scene is very similar to the entrance ceremony of athletes from various countries in the Olympic Games in the future, and it is also somewhat like the military parade held by various countries.

Bai Sheng also sat on the north stand, close to Tong Guan, diagonally opposite Gao Yu. Now he is the hottest figure among the civil and military officials of the Great Song Dynasty, there is no one, at least within half a year, he is such a status, as long as Cai Jing does not mess with him, basically no one dares to provoke.

Bai Sheng was not interested in the entry and drills of the army below, and when he was giving Cai Jing physiotherapy this morning, he heard Cai Jing say that Wang Huang's fifth lady had been secretly executed by Ling Chi, so he felt a little sorry for that charming stunner.

Although he didn't have any thoughts of possession of the stunner, he didn't have any dislike for her. It's just a woman who sells her body in pursuit of the quality of life, this kind of woman abounds in the future, you are annoyed, can you be annoyed?

He felt that it was his momentary pleasure that caused this woman to suffer miserably, this woman was so miserable, she should not have ended up like this. I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me.

"Bai Xianxian, why don't you just look and don't speak? If you don't pick your troops again, the middle and lower forbidden armies will go out later, and the rest of the upper four armies will not be able to go out with you. ”

After Tong Guan and Gao Yu commented on the soldiers below, they turned to remind Bai Sheng.

The Great Song Dynasty forbidden army was divided into upper, middle and lower classes, and only the middle and lower armies went out this time.

As for the four armies, they are divided into four armies, including Touri, Tianwu, Longwei, and Shenwei, which have a number, and they all belong to the elite of the elite under the command of Gao Yu Sanya, and are the trump card troops used to defend the Beijing division and protect the king of Qin.

Bai Sheng's thoughts were pulled back to the field by Tong Guan, but he didn't understand what the Upper Fourth Army was, and almost understood it as the New Fourth Army.

Immediately pointed to the 2,500 people in the army under the stage and said: "I want this army, I don't know what Tong Shu's secret intention is." ”

He did need some sergeants, but they were not used to charge into battle and kill the enemy, but to use them as a force to transport artillery for Ling Zhen.

At this time, the Golden Gun generals Xu Ning, Bangtian Lei Lingzhen, Feng Nandu, Yi Xiao, Luo Lida, Shui Ningzhu and Bai Sheng had all arrived at the Daxiao Field on time and stood behind him, becoming his generals.

"What? You only need a soldier and horses, is that enough?"

Tong Guan's mood was very complicated, originally he wanted Bai Sheng to die quickly, so as not to threaten his position in the court in the future, but on the surface, he had to pretend to care.

The emperor personally asked him to take care of Bai Sheng, and if he did not act according to Bai Sheng's wishes, he would be suspected of disobeying the emperor.

Therefore, he expected that the sergeants assigned to Bai Sheng would be one or two, that is, 25,000 to 50,000 men.

As the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses who commanded the 400,000 forbidden troops and the 200,000 border troops, even if he allocated 50,000 soldiers and horses to the vanguard officer, it was not much.

But Bai Sheng's request made him stunned, and he said in his heart, "You don't want to live, but you can't complain about me."

At this moment, the officials of the Sanya and the secretary of the military department are on the stage, Bai Sheng's personal request is obvious to all and heard, and he is not afraid that Bai Sheng will say that he intends to make things difficult in the future.

Then he said: "Okay, if you have any requests in the future, just send a messenger to the Chinese army." ”

"Thank you, Privy Envoy!" Bai Sheng stood up and clasped his fists and saluted, as long as the leader had this attitude.

After thanking him, he turned around and ordered Ling Zhen: "You will lead this army and horses, let them pull out your cannon and march in Bianjing City for three days!"

Listening to this order, Ling Zhen was a little puzzled, the rest of the horse infantry forbidden army marched on the street, it is better to say, this cannon city is going around, in addition to consuming the physical strength of men and horses, what other role can it have?

Even if, according to Tong Guan, the purpose of the march was to deter the lawless elements in the city, why did he need to use such weapons? Let's not talk about whether you can fire cannons in the city, but only that if you really find a few thieves and bandits, will you be able to use the cannon to hit them?

Bai Sheng's arrangement is simply nonsense, and at first glance he is a layman who doesn't know how to fight.

But who makes the family their own top boss, and the phenomenon of crushing people to death at the level of officials is especially serious in the army. No matter what, he couldn't disobey the military order, so he turned around and went away stupidly, and handed over to the commander of the army below.

Contrary to Ling Zhen's slander, Tong Guan and Gao Yu were very satisfied with Bai Sheng's performance, at least Bai Sheng knew how to implement the arrangements and instructions of his superiors, and such comrades had to be cultivated.
