On February 1, 19th year of Kaihuang, the eleventh day after the general of the East Road left the capital from Daxing, the marshal of the Northern Expedition, the Emperor Yang Lin, the commander of the Eastern Road, and the grandson of Youzhou, received several troops along the way. The team, which was getting bigger and bigger, had some momentum in its military momentum, arrived in Puyang, Hedong.

Along the way, in addition to the 800 Guards and 100 Banners who were brought to Beijing by Yi Feng, after leaving Beijing, he received a thousand chariots of cavalry and chariots drawn to him by the emperor at the Bashang Military Camp. These were the soldiers from the Lantian area of ​​Bashang. One thousand men and horses came from ten different chariots and cavalry palaces. When he arrived in Fengyi, Weibei, he received several troops and horses who had been waiting for the orders, all of which were from the government soldiers near the Jingji capital of Guanzhong, including cavalry and infantry. After Yi Feng and his party passed by Pu

After crossing the Yellow River to Hedong, the last army that the emperor dispatched was waiting there for a long time. They were the cavalry of the clan from the Yang family of Hongnong, one thousand heavy cavalry and two thousand infantry. In addition to the several soldiers and horses received along the road, the emperor drew Yi Feng to a total of 10,000, far exceeding the original number of 6,000. Among them, one thousand heavy cavalry, three thousand light cavalry, and six thousand infantry. Seven thousand are the prefectural soldiers in the capital area, and three thousand belong to elite troops such as the cavalry of the clan.

Perhaps it was the previous assassination incident, or perhaps it was because of the temporary change of commander, and the emperor was not very at ease with the crown prince, or perhaps it was because he was too concerned about this war. The emperor repeatedly sent Yi Feng more troops. In addition to giving Yi Feng the power to command 100,000 troops from the prefectures of the East Road, he also transferred 10,000 troops from the capital of the capital. Although many of them were the government soldiers of the capital, many of them had not been on the battlefield for many years to hold hoes than weapons, they were still elite soldiers of the Sui army. They were much stronger than the border soldiers of Youzhou Prefecture on the roster of the Ministry of War.

The team continued to expand, Yi Feng's personal guards, the emperor's dispatched the palace soldiers and the clan cavalry, and there were also the ten general managers of Youzhou Prefecture who followed Yi Feng out of the capital, and the other ten general managers assigned to the East Road this time. Li Yuan and other newly appointed ten general managers were all from Guanlong nobles, and even great nobles. When they went to Youzhou to serve as general managers, each of them brought a family general's personal army. The number of people surprised Yi Feng. Tang Guo Duke Li Yuan finally got out of office this time. Except for his wife and children who could not be taken to take office according to the system, he almost moved the entire Tang Guo Duke's Mansion.

There were no more than 100 private soldiers from the family. Li Yuan took office and transferred a large number of young and strong guards from various villages in the suburbs of Beijing to take office. In addition, Li Yuan also brought most of Li Hu's remaining descendants, and a large number of uncles and brothers were brought to him to take office and assist him. Each uncle and brother brought a team of servants to protect him. The final result was that Li Yuan brought more than a dozen clan members and nearly a thousand family generals from the Li family.

Yi Feng finally saw the foundation of the clan. The Li family has only been three generations from Li Hu to Li Yuan. But after three dynasties, it has formed a force that cannot be underestimated. Although the Li family has lost its leading figure for many years and has never been up or down in the court. However, this time Li Yuan was short of a real position and became a small general under Youzhou Prefecture, the Li family immediately helped the whole clan. More than a dozen people were dispatched to help him.

He also mobilized a group of thousands of families who were loyal and reliable. With such a team, even if Li Yuan was released for the first time and went to Youzhou for the first time, he could still quickly control the prefecture and not be emptied by his subordinates. This is the foundation of the wealthy families of the aristocratic families. A family like Li Yuan can only be considered second-rate in aristocratic families, and even more so, they are not as powerful as those super-large families. It can be imagined how powerful the foundation of those thousand-year-old aristocratic families is.

Li Yuan brought more than a thousand relatives and friends to serve, and the others were no worse than him.

Li Min, son-in-law of Princess Leping, Li Min, husband of Princess Xiangguo, Li Changya, father-in-law of Princess Yi Feng, son-in-law of Princess Yi Feng, son-in-law of the emperor, Yang Yichen, third uncle of Yi Feng, Chai Shao, etc., one after another, is a great nobleman, not all the top families in the capital. They served as general managers, just like Li Yuan, and all brought their relatives and friends, as well as a group of family members. In addition to these large number of family armed forces, there are also a large number of people, that is, the civil servants hired by these nobles along the road. Most of them were hired directly along the road to carry luggage and supplies for these nobles and their private soldiers. In addition, there are many directly from

The servants sent by the yamen in various places along the road knew that the passing by was the current crown prince, the marshal of the East Road, and twenty general managers. A large group of officials at all levels dared not be negligent. They sent their subordinates and temporarily recruited many civilians to help these nobles. In addition, such a huge team passed by, and most of them were noble officials, which also attracted many nearby merchants to hear the news and came with goods and followed the team. When the team stopped to stay in the palace every day, the nearby market immediately became a temporary market, and the merchants worked hard to do this temporary business. Those who sold wine, meat, snacks, and even those who sold singing and art, were simply varied.

When Yi Feng and his party arrived in Puyang, Hedong and gathered the last three thousand troops, the team was already becoming more and more swelling.

This team has a size of at least 30,000 people.

Local officials were so nervous that they all had insomnia, but their governor, King Hejian, was still acting as the chief supervisor in Yangzhou at this time. As for the latest news, their governor had just been transferred to power to take over the chief supervisor of Bingzhou, and they were going to Bingzhou to act as the chief supervisor of Bingzhou.

Yang Xiong, the deputy commander of the Eastern Road and commander of the cavalry of the clan regiment, suggested to Yi Feng that a military parade would be held in Puyang to integrate the troops and boost morale. Although Yi Feng believed that there was not much need, this was a mob unit. No matter how integrated it would be, it would not have any effect. After all, once he arrived in Youzhou, Yi Feng planned to let the general managers take his own troops back to the states to take office. He had already made up his mind that his Huaihuang army would be led by himself and would never be handed over to other people. These twenty general managers had to lead troops to lead the troops, and they had to think of a way for themselves. In short, the 20 general managers would never include his own Huaihuang army. However, since Yang Xiong proposed this, Yi Feng did not object. It would be better to have a review ceremony, just to speed up the march speed in the future. Don't be the same as before, it took eleven days to walk from Chang'an to Puyang.

In Yang Xiong's opinion, it is very necessary to have a grand review. He was also a general who commanded the army, but unfortunately he was promoted and demoted by the emperor and left it high. He had not been in contact with military forces for many years. This time he finally got the position of deputy commander and also won the elite Three Thousand Sects Cavalry. His heart was already itchy. He now needs to use this military parade to adjust his state of leaving the army for many years.

Of course, Yang Xiong also intended to use this review to remind those new general managers who were magnificent. Although he was not the general manager, he was the deputy general manager and their superiors. However, because he was suspected by the emperor over the years, Yang Xiong was careful and low-key. The team of family generals and servants had almost been disbanded. This time he left Beijing, he did not dare to do anything. He did not go too far as Li Yuan and others. Therefore, on the end, the general managers showed off their power, but his deputy general manager seemed a little alone. His aura was completely suppressed. He felt that it was necessary to use this ceremony to give them a good reminder.

Yang Xiong was also a brave general who fought immediately, and this mixed army actually had a good foundation. Although it came from various departments, it could be called elite troops, whether it was Yi Feng's personal guards, Jingji Prefecture soldiers or Zong Kuo, and even Li Yuan and other officials were mostly veterans who had been on the battlefield. After retreating, they were arranged to be in their mansions. In fact, they were even much stronger than ordinary mansion soldiers.

After only three days of preliminary rest and running-in, Yang Xiong had already trained this hybrid army very neatly, lined up in line. Even the civilians hired along the road, Yang Xiong formally formed them into civilian battalions, responsible for logistics and transportation of supplies, and organized them in a team of fifty people, two hundred people, and one battalion of thousands. He assigned them temporary leaders at all levels and sent them to the The inspector, the temporary civilian battalion, immediately became quite good. Yi Feng was surprised and ignored the Zongzheng Temple Minister who had always had a gentle smile on his face. He just thought that this old boy was very easy to start a business and didn't care about talking about money. But it turned out that he was the same as the commander-in-chief. No wonder Yang Jian was so cautious about him that he had long put him high and gave him a high position as a general. He was indeed a capable person.

Although the review ceremony was far inferior to that of later military parades, even to put it in a picky way, the military parade held by Yang Xiong was actually just equivalent to the level of military training for college students in later generations. But thinking about the hybridization of this unit, and he only took three days to conduct group drills, it was already quite amazing to have such a result. This fully reflects Yang Xiong's military literacy and organizational ability.

During the three days of rest in Puyang, Yi Feng asked Yang Xiong to be responsible for the review, and at the same time he rewarded the officers and soldiers in large quantities. He gave each soldier five kilograms of meat and two kilograms of wine to reward them for their marches over the past few days. This reward was not only sent to formal officers and soldiers, but also the private soldiers of the generals in charge, and even the temporary hired civil servants sent by the officials of various prefectures and counties. In short, everyone has a share and everyone has a share. This is also considered Yi Feng's show of kindness to everyone and has won people's hearts. Although most of these people are not directly in command, after all, these people are his subordinates in the future.

After the successful review ceremony, the army that had been initially integrated went north again. When they came, Yi Feng went south from Hebei, then passed Luoyang and entered Guanzhong through Tongguan. But this time, he crossed the Yellow River from Pujin Bridge and entered Hedong, along the Fen River north to Taiyuan in Bingzhou, then passed Jingxing and Taihang, Hebei Hengzhou Zhending, and returned to Youzhou.

This road is also the most convenient road in Hebei and Guanzhong. It turns out that the road that goes south through Henan to Guanzhong is not the best route, and the road conditions are far inferior to the previous one.

The weak sunlight in February shone on the official road south of Longmen County, Hedong. The official roads are uneven. Although they are national highways, the road conditions are not good. The villages on both sides are sparse and bleak. On the dead branches next to the road, a few crows croak from time to time, as if they were looking for food. Occasionally, one or two hunched over and walked by, and they were in a hurry, carrying luggage rolls. Wars in the north are about to begin. Some people who already lived on the border began to migrate south.

At noon, in this quiet wilderness, a huge team appeared, lined up in long formations. In front were walking soldiers, with a long list of carriages in the middle, and on the frozen soil on both sides of the road were riding horses and horsemen.

At this moment, in the carriage in the middle of the team, Marshal Yi Feng of the Northern Expedition East Road and a young woman were sitting on her face with a face towel on her face.

Yi Feng wore a purple gold crown on his head, a crimson embroidered golden python robe, a thirteen-section gold belt on his waist, and a jade sword. He was handsome and handsome.

The woman sitting opposite him was Yuwen Yubo, the princess of Lintao County. Before Yi Feng left Beijing, she claimed to stay at Fengyi's manor for a while. Then when Yi Feng passed by, she immediately followed. Originally, Yi Feng had agreed to let her stay in Fengyi for a few days, and then wait for two months before she went to Luoyang, and then disappeared directly to Huaihuang. But as soon as Yi Feng's car drove over, Yuwen Yubo couldn't stay for a day. After thinking about it, she didn't tell anyone, and changed into men's clothing and rode a horse to catch up with Yi Feng's team.

Looking at the lover in front of him, Yuwen Yubo felt very satisfied. No matter how much adventure he took for him, she didn't know what happened, but now she seemed to be completely fascinated by him. She fell into a terrible swamp and couldn't struggle at all. However, looking at the lover in her young lover, she had to admire him. He was so outstanding. In just a short time, he had already gone from a green forest horse thief in the northern border to the current crown prince. Many heroes followed him, and many noble ministers were dependent on him.

At this time, Yuwen Yubo snuggled beside Yi Feng with a satisfied smile on his face, "Summer, why are you frowning all the way? Are you still blaming me for not following me? But I really miss you so much. I can't wait for two months, and I can't wait for a day. No matter how unhappy you are, you can't let me go back."

"You've come, how could I let you go back? I'm not thinking about this, but something else." Yi Feng smiled, raised his head and stroked her jade neck.

"Then what are you thinking?" Yuwen Yubo changed his free and easy appearance, curled up in his arms like a little woman, and put a jade hand into his robe with a smile on his face, and went all the way up, "Don't say, let me guess what you are thinking, it must not be frowning about money and food. You are a rich rich man. Many people in the capital say that your wealth can already be among the richest in the world. Well, by the way, you must be thinking about how to face the white-haired princess after going back. I heard that you were saved by her because of your injury and amnesia, and then she asked you to marry her. You married into the Gao Mansion, oh no, you married her as your wife. This time you entered the capital, but your Majesty gave her marriage, married Su Jun as your wife, and demoted the white-haired princess to a concubine's wife. I'm afraid it's hard to explain when you go back."

As she spoke, her jade hand had entered the position, grabbed the handle of her lover and gently rubbed it. On the other hand, her half of her body that was nestled against Yi Feng also began to deliberately rub, and the plump and elastic high friction Yi Feng was shaken. It has to be said that these women who have just changed from girls to young women are the most terrifying. They are in a state of being just opened to a novel world. After experiencing those magical happiness, they have become ecstatic and savored, and seeking endlessly.

"Three times a night last night, it wasn't enough. I really couldn't feed it." Yi Feng moaned softly. He was not the kind of person who pursued the bad luck too much, but the handle was taken away and a little teasing, his anger was also raised.

Yuwen Yubo exhaled like orchids, put his lips close to Yi Feng's ears, and stretched out his fragrant tongue to gently lick Yi Feng's earlobe, deliberately aggravating the breathing sound, "Your Highness hasn't answered me yet, are you afraid of that princess?"

Yi Feng lay back a little, found a comfortable feeling, closed his eyes slightly, and let her get on and on, "Yes, I'm so scared, that's a white-haired witch. If she lets her know that you're back with me, she will definitely cut you with a knife." Yi Feng also joked. There may be some small problems on Gao Qianxue's side, but it will definitely not be a big problem. There will definitely be some small troubles, but he believes that Gao Qianxue can understand him and seek common ground while reserving differences. What he was thinking about just now was the situation today.

Although history seemed to have moved back a little after an inexplicable assassination case, Yang Guang still failed to lead the Northern Expedition in the end, and Gao Bing also returned to the Northern Expedition Army, but it was very different from history. The crown prince Yang Yong took command, and he became the marshal of the Eastern Road, while Yang Guang was under house arrest in Beijing. It can be said that history has become very different from the original ones. Will the historical trends he knows still happen? Will the Sui Dynasty win a great victory in the Battle of Sui Tu? Will the emperor depose Yang Yong after the Battle of Sui Tu? Will Yang Guang become the crown prince?

He couldn't grasp everything anymore. It seemed that from now on, everything had changed, and he could only rely on himself.
