Volume 3 Heaven Patching Fissure Chapter 7 The Big Wedding (7)

When Zhao Kai finally found the savior of the Eighth Ping and bowed regardless of the king's face, outside Nanxun Gate, an emergency military controversy held by Xiao Yan was also underway.

Outside the Shenwu Changsheng Army's central tent outside the Nanxun Gate, the Diaomao guards were closely guarded by the King of Yan.

The nearest military camp outside the Nanxun Gate is now located at the central army of the Bianliang Xinshenwu Changsheng Army. This newly built army in Bianliang is divided into five wings, covering Bianliang, wrapping the city tightly. There is also the central army close to Xiao Yanju, and there is another wing far away. It guards Bianliang to lead to the Yellow River in the direction of Hedong.

The central army in Xiao Yan personally had as many as 16 commanders of the Cavalry and Infantry Army. There were more than 7,000 pedestal cavalrymen. The other five pedestals were built with ten commands, ranging from 3,500 to 4,000 pedestal cavalry. The newly built Bianliang Shenwu Eternal Victory Army had a total of 66 commanders and 25,800 main army. Compared with the original hundreds of thousands of imperial guards in the capital, it was reduced by countless times. Although the Second Palace Change of February 2010 has not been available since the Song Dynasty, it made the sergeant and doctors hate it. However, only Xiao Yan had made the waste cancer of the capital access imperial guards drastically cut off the waste cancer.

The central army consists of the strong guards of the imperial guards, the scattered soldiers who went to Hebei to recruit from various routes in time, and there is no soldier among the old imperial guards. The old Shenwu Eternal Victory Army in the central army has the most backbone, and the central army is firmly controlled. What's more, the Diao Hats and the King of Yan?

The so-called Yidu of Diao Hat is actually a complete command construction. The inner part is full of elite soldiers drawn from Xiao Yan's military horses. And it is purely heavy cavalry, and there are a whole thousand auxiliary soldiers. The Diao Hat alone is equipped with more than 1,200 war horses and more than 800 mules. Since the Western Army overcame Hehuang and seized more than half of Hengshan. After many years of return to the Western Xia, it has been hard to open up a relatively stable source of Western horses. The Bianliang Imperial Army has also divided some of them. The strategic resources accumulated through hard work have almost all fallen into the Diao Hat. In addition to the massive armor and weapons accumulated in the Bianliang Armory, the Diao Hat has been armed to the peak of heavy cavalry equipment in this era. The Diao Hat is the backbone of the central army, and Xiao Yan is also the most reliable force in the hot pot of Bianliang!

All three hundred and fifty horsemen, including the martened hats, appeared and stood solemnly on the outside. There were more than a hundred Yan Kings' straight armored soldiers in the inner circle. They guarded the central tent tightly. Thousands of central corps, except for those who were on duty, were all guarding the camp. They guessed that the Yan Kings' army was gathered in the central tent at this moment, and they were discussing what they were discussing.

Xiao Yan, the King of Yan, has both power and danger. Even those who are under Xiao Yan's hands can understand. Xiao Yan's sudden actions will not make people feel a little shaken. However, as the King of Yan personally stationed the Central Army, it goes without saying that they are carefully selected and relatively simple and brave. All kinds of treatment are the first among the Bianliang army. Moreover, the sable hats in the army are the backbone, and Xiao Yan's confidant and direct military officers are also the highest proportion. Therefore, although other soldiers and soldiers in the army are a little confused, they will be slapped in a little discussion and guessing. They and the King of Yan have already prospered and lost. However, if the King of Yan is defeated, as the King of Yan, they are undoubtedly the targets of being cleaned. They may have to be held responsible for the Second Palace of the Second Palace. The civil servants and sects will not be ruthless when they chopped off their heads!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The soldiers and soldiers below whispered in their respective military tents, and as long as they did not disturb the soldiers of the patrol camp outside, they would be stopped. However, in the central army tent, there was a murderous aura. After Xiao Yan lost Yingzhou and Zong Han's army was traveling south, no one could say a word for it for a while!

Now, Xiao Yan, a political group with military power as the backbone, needs stability and time to expand the most. But these Jurchen Tartars who are thieves will not give the King of Yan and us this time!

Xiao Yan stood tall and sat on the Hu chair with a backrest. Compared to the kneeling mat, he was obviously taller than the generals. The youngest Song Dynasty, the most strange and powerful minister in more than a hundred years, had his hair spotted, but his eyes were still as sharp as a sword. He glanced at the generals who were kneeling on both sides, and whenever he met Xiao Yan's gaze, the military generals who were originally a little confused and unconsciously settled down.

We have experienced fewer difficulties and obstacles before following the King of Yan? When did we face a strong enemy and fight for victory with our lives and their lives? Let’s see how we are! As long as the King of Yan’s spirit has not faded, what kind of birds are we afraid of?

Xiao Yan also silently evaluated the mentality of these military generals under his command.

This is a group of talented people with an average age of about thirty.

It turned out that he was born in the Western Army, and it was divided into two main parts. One was the Baijia Army. This was chosen to fight tough battles. Any hard-to-killing bones that risked their lives to rush forward and broke the enemy's rear was this Baijia Army. It was an extremely high casualty rate. The Western Army's generals and families have been rich for decades. Even if their children were sent to train, they were mostly placed in many border camps that had been peaceful as the leader. With high walls and thick bases, they could also learn how to set up private venues, how to return to the foreign tribes, and the Dangxiang people as soon as possible. Among the Baijia Army, there were all military soldiers who had no family background, no roots, and could only rely on their lives to fight for the future.

Moreover, as the intensity of the war with the Western Xia gradually decreased, the Western Army's generals had a clear idea that the entire Song Dynasty knew, that was, to fight Xixia, not to fight too hard, otherwise the cunning rabbit would die and go to the dog to cook. Without the Western thieves, how could there be tens of millions of military expenditures invested in Shaanxi every year, and how could there be huge benefits to dominate the western trade routes? The Baijian, a field heavy cavalry group that specialized in fighting tough battles, had too high a cost to raise troops, and it was a bit out of place. The Western Army went on an expedition to pacify Jiangnan to attack Yanjing. The Baijian had consumption but no supplement, but was just aiming to gradually weaken the scale. And if it was thrown to Xiao Yan to lead the vanguard, there was no regret at all.

Bai Jian was born in a military general and wanted to gain wealth and future with his life. He became a new military honor in the Song Dynasty. How could there be a better choice than Xiao Yan in the entire Song Dynasty?

Another group from the Western Army was the Shengjie Army. This was a group that was depressed and unsuccessful in the Western Army. Otherwise, how could it be collected by Tong Guan as a part of the Western Army? Tong Guan was in Shaanxi and wanted to fight against the Western Army. Since the opening of the borders of Hehuang became a national policy, his victory with the Western Xia was the main source of the political correctness of the so-called New Party reform that had been in power for decades. Tong Guan basically cooperated with the new party generation. Naturally, he was incompatible with the Western Army generals who had signs of vassalization. As Tong Guan was directly led by Tong Guan, he fought many tough battles in the war with the Western Xia. Under the command of the dead eunuch, he was much more vigorous and masculine than the overall Western Army.

After the Western Army was defeated in Baigouhe, Tong Guan wanted to use Xiao Yan to counterattack. The Western Army as a whole refused to contribute, Tong Guan could only hand over the Shengjie Army unit to Xiao Yan. After the bloody battle against Yan, Tong Guan left the position. The Shengjie Army was in charge, but there was no way he knew that his family would never have a good end if he returned to the Western Army. In addition, Xiao Yan also spent a lot of effort, so naturally he belonged to this Nanlaizi.

The Bai Jian and Sheng Jie Army were elite soldiers who dared to fight, occupying the main part of Xiao Yan's generals. Other members include surrendered generals from Guo Yaoshi's Changsheng Army, elite soldiers from Hebei who were searched. In addition to the few people in the Bianliang Guards, these are the people who could never stand out in the original system of the Song Dynasty. No one can use them, nor can anyone give them the opportunity to run all the way!

After several years of continuous bloody battles, many of the generals moved each other, and many people walked in the mink hats. They had a drink together, policed ​​Xiao Yan together, and fought in the football market together. This scattered group, as Xiao Yan miraculously soared, had truly gained centripetal force and cohesion, and was an inseparable whole.

As military generals, they long for more victory, more future prosperity, and more glory! The average age of about 30 makes them so energetic that they are far from at ease. As marginal figures in the original stable system of the Song Dynasty, Xiao Yan, who has gathered them together and has achieved a future that he had never dared to imagine before, and may have a greater position in the future, they are loyal. No one dares to use these tiger and wolf men with a profound imprint of Xiao Yan. If Xiao Yan falls, they will undoubtedly be cruelly cleansed.

Looking over their faces, everyone was naturally a little panicked after learning that the situation in Yunnei of Hedong was corrupt. However, the panic lasted for a few moments. Then they looked at Xiao Yan, and they could not understand clearly.

What do you say about Yan King, we will do it. We will fight a fierce battle with the Jurchen Tartars in Hedong or Yunnei, and what kind of birds are afraid of? What kind of enemy is the King of Yan, and the King of Yan will crush us. No matter how hard it is, as long as the King of Yan is referring to it, we will hit it in one head!

After pondering for a long time, Xiao Yan finally smiled faintly and said softly: "Can the Bianliang army be used?"

When they heard Xiao Yan's words, the military generals all over the tent, including Fang Teng and Zuo Zaoji who were sitting beside Xiao Yan, all smiled at each other.

The King of Yan has decided to fight!

As a political force that has not risen for a long time, has an unstable foundation and is full of enemies. Whether it is the entire army to fight or the entire army to reconcile, I am afraid that I cannot make a decision as soon as possible! Now Xiao Yan has no capital to wait and see!

Although in everyone's hearts, whether the entire army came out and fought the Jurchens in Yunnei, Hedong, they had different ideas. Whether this decisive battle can be fought and whether it can be won, there are still too many hurdles to pass. But it's better than hesitating and watching the situation further deteriorate!

As the strong and diligent, King Yan, who was walking along the way with God, made a decision as soon as the news of Hedong was just heard. The choice was the same as before. Since this thief's fortune refused to go to me, I will take back this luck with my own hands!

The generals were full of soldiers, and they looked excited. When they heard the King of Yan ask whether the army was used or not, Tang Siye, who was the deputy commander of the army, was appointed as the Shengjie Army. He was a short man, and he was a sturdy and steady man in the lower plate. At first glance, he was a brave and brave man in the army wearing armor and shields and wielding a big axe. The sound of his opening was as loud as a broken gong, which made everyone's ears buzz.

"………………Our central army has all sixteen commands. You can use it! If you add some civilian carts, you can pull me out to fight in the field. Just ask the King of Yan to release me to lead the army. In the guards of the central army, the thief will always fight without any war. I and General Han are quite good. The King of Yan will put me under General Han. Even an infantry commander is willing! At that time, the Jurchen Taurus cavalry will rush in which direction. The King of Yan will place my command. If the Tartars crashed through our formation, I will serve my head by myself!"

Tang Siye slapped his chest and expressed his determination. He stood up next to him, commanding Wang Gongcheng. He was a brave soldier from Hebei. He was just a ten general like Yue Fei. Since he fought in Zhuozhou, he followed Xiao Yan as an auxiliary soldier. When he was fighting in the city, he rushed to the front and cut off seven or eight heads. He made contributions in the future. Xiao Yan chose the sable hats and was also the first batch, and he was of a very old qualification.

If Zhang Xian was still leading the central army, he would be flat. Whether it was about relatives, achievements, the two of them were fighting each other, or the ability on the court, he was not as good as Zhang Xian and the others. However, after Zhang Xian went to mention the imperial guards of the imperial guards, Xiao Yan actually chose Tang Siye as the commander of the central army. Wang Gongcheng was a little savory. He always said that Tang Siye was used to being in the Shengjie Army. He was obedient to Tong Guan, but now his ability has not yet fallen behind. It is true that Tang Siye can fight at the foot of the steps. When he fought against the Jurchen Iron Cavalry Tanzhou, he was in the first row, and his weapons were changed in four or five ways, and his body was covered with scars and still shouted fiercely! But I was not bad about this hatred!

Tang Siye boasted, and he stood up and said coldly: "Sir Tang, if you exchange the central army wing for me, I will say that too! With the elite central army and the mink hats are also in the army, will you show your ability?"

Tang Siye immediately turned around and glared at Wang Gongcheng. Before he could speak, Xiao Yan asked: "Is the left wing not available?"

Wang Gongcheng shook his head: "There are too many people from the left wing guards, and their foundation is less. Although the guards of the imperial guards are more honest and obedient than those who were dismissed by us, they are very old and have very wasteful practices. The workmanship is first-class, and there are all kinds of people. If we let our left wing do business, we can find some money, five elements and eight works, and we can provide the King of Yan with a hundred thousand yuan a year... But if we fight, it is still far from the time to go. In these days, I can only practice their shooting skills diligently. Then I can send a crossbow arrow formation to shoot on both wings. Put it in front of the formation for scattered soldiers, and then shoot for two rounds, and I am afraid that they will not be able to do it."

Wang Gongcheng shook his head and vomited a bitter taste, then patted his chest with high apology: "If the King of Yan decides to fight, I can pull the left wing up even if I try my best to practice all the way, and then adjust our old foundation and supplement it better. No matter how you do it, you won't let the King of Yan miss the big thing!"

As soon as Wang Gongcheng spoke, the other commanders agreed, but they were all too few of their foundations and the so-called elites selected were basically from guarding the imperial guards. Although they were older than those who were dismissed mud, they were already stronger than the sky. But after all, they were older, and they were so prosperous that they had to live in such a prosperous metropolis as Bianliang for so many years. Even if they were selected from those who could endure the hardships at the bottom, Bianliang was no more than ten times stronger than the border areas. Whether it was blood bravery or combat skills, they were still far away. The only director was just obedient. This army and horse were hard to train for a while, to quell the chaos in the middle of the country, to slaughter the locals, and to scare the civil servants and sages. But when fighting the Jurchens and Tartars, who dared to make a promise in front of Xiao Yan?

However, each general still made his final statement. If the King of Yan decides to fight, then everyone will try their best to lead the troops to practice. At that time, only the King of Yan will follow the order!

Later, even Tang Siye secretly made a gesture to Wang Gongcheng, meaning that his brothers led the army, which seemed to have taken a big advantage. After the military discussion, I invited the brothers to drink. Wang Gongcheng snorted in secret and finally nodded reluctantly, saying that after the military discussion, you will be a bastard to death.

Xiao Yan held his hand on Hu's armrest, dragged his chin, and listened to the complaints of the generals under his command with expressionless face. In fact, there was no mention of complaints, it was all plain words. The Shenwu Changsheng Legion was too new, and it was really necessary to fight tough battles. He was not as good as pretending to be a flowery air in daily life and losing his chains during wartime.

How can I not know that this ever-winning army of the Bianliang Shenwu, which had not been established for a long time, is not very useful? Even though it has reached the teeth, the fees are lenient. The training has reached the extremely high density of every two days. After all, the time is too short. The quality of the military source is really poor. No matter which dynasty or dynasty, I have never heard of good soldiers from the capital that has been passed down for a long time. The so-called imperial guards in the early capital of the Song Dynasty strongly suppressed the world, but inherited the legacy of the Five Dynasties. These inherited imperial guards gathered the country's strength and experienced many years. Those old soldiers died and there was no more.

But how can Han Yue, the troops of Hedong, deal with this Jurchen invasion war alone?

It is not only to withdraw Han Yue's troops, abandon Hedong, guard the Yellow River, and defend Bianliang to stabilize his power. But now, he has a strong army, and the central government has not been disunited. The Song Dynasty is almost completely separated. The Jurchens suppress Hedong and are condescending, and the Hebei lies in front of him. I am afraid that some people will have the idea of ​​joining the Jurchens into Bianliang and overthrowing him, a powerful minister! The prestige of the Zhao family was also swept the floor early because of their appearance. At that time, there may be no possibility of winning people's hearts and seizing Jiangnan!

At that time, I could talk about how to redeem the sky and repair the cracks? The fate of the Han family was probably even worse than that of myself who had never traveled through time!

Therefore, this battle must be fought, and one battle must determine the authority of the center!

But where are the strong soldiers? The Western Army has to use it, at least it is stronger than our Bianliang Shenwu Ever Victory Army. But now I still have to focus on dealing with possible abnormal movements of the Western Army!

The decline of the Song Dynasty was unprecedented. Zhao Ji's so-called Fengheng Yu's aura collapsed without any resistance when the Jurchens kicked him. He traveled through time and faced such a mess. He had to make up for money by himself, and the army had to train himself, and all kinds of holes made by the Zhao family had to make up for themselves.

Just make up for it……

Just use your own capital and have to bite the bullet to meet you!

The ever-winning army of Shenwu in Hedong was 17,800,000 horses, and the army and horses expanded from Yunnei were only 20,000, and there were still losses in these days. In the Tanzhou, the number of military horses that can be drawn was limited, only a few thousand. To determine the battle in Hedong and maintain sufficient deterrence within, this new army must be used.

If a military horse is pulled out, it can carry out a certain intensity of war. Even if the components are very new and the combat power is not good, there is still a way to strengthen it. It is nothing more than boosting morale, strengthening backbones, and using both kindness and power. As for the well-equipped and sufficient materials, it has never been a problem for the military horses of the Song Dynasty.

Fortunately, I had plans in advance.

To strengthen the backbone, there was a ready-made army in Tanzhou, and was about to recruit Bianliang. When Zonghan faced the movements of the Eastern Route Army, he had to ignore it for a while. After all, Zonghan was in a hurry, and Zong Wang and Zonghansu had a conflict, so they might not be able to cooperate closely and seamlessly with Zonghan to move south.

With both kindness and power, you can only give me kindness, and you can make a military success and reward your family if you win, so you can settle your family without any worries. With the financial resources you have now, you are still within the scope of your own. You have never been stingy with your subordinates who dare to fight! I have never wanted to be a rich man who keeps you for a thousand years.

As for the power... the news of Hedong's decay comes, which is just enough to give you room to spread. At that time, let those who are trying to restrain themselves know their methods! The second palace of February has not been long since changed, and I have forgotten my methods after a little stable life? There are opportunities to remind you of it!

The most difficult thing is to boost morale. An army that has not fought for a long time and lives in a peaceful nest of Bianliang. What should we do to make them go north and go to a bitter and cold place like Yunnei, Hedong, and fight the fierce Jurchen Tatars with great morale?

Every era has its limitations. The army of the Song Dynasty, apart from the simple family, country and nation cognition, cannot require them to have ideals and beliefs. However, in the Song Dynasty, there are also ready-made examples to copy.

During the reign of Emperor Zhenzong, the elite Liao people entered Hebei on an unprecedented scale. At that time, the so-called elite Hebei people had no ability to resist and could only hide within a few strongholds. To the north of the Yellow River, Khitan cavalry was rushing and rushing. Under the great shock of Bianliang, people were defeated. At that time, the imperial guards of the capital had long been ruined. Even if they selected tens of thousands of elite troops in the selection of the front line, they were just as powerful as their new army. Maybe they were not as good as their new army. At that time, the famous prime minister Kou Zhun opposed the opposition and personally led the emperor to the expedition. He drove across the Yellow River. When the Huangluo umbrella representing the king of the Song Dynasty rose up in Chanzhou, thousands of troops were cheering! The troops took the death power and occupied the Liao people north of the Yellow River, so there was a story of the alliance of Chanyuan.

I have been preparing for this for a long time. At least Zhao Ji, the Supreme Master, must be held hostage by his family and went north. It would not be possible if I didn't go. There is also Zhao Kai, who is an uncertain heaven, and I don't know if I can let him go to his own range...

If we can accomplish something, we will take two generations of kings to the north. This appeal should be enough? We will use the emperor to command the princes. Hedong, Hebei, Shaanxi. But if we have to call on the army and horses to raise materials, who can fight against each other openly? Only by concentrating our strength and getting rid of the constraints and fighting in Hedong can we win! And it also saves a lot of trouble for those in Bianliang!

As for the army in the wild, will anyone have any ideas? The empty Bianliang? Cai Jing and others will play tricks. Or will Zhao Ji and Zhao Kai even use any fierce means after boosting the prestige of the king......

…………… Just let them go. A man acts well and is just a shame.

I have come to this era and never forget what I want to do. And countless heroic souls who follow me to die in battle are also watching what I am doing!

Xiao Yan thought too deeply for a moment, and even the discussions in the tent gradually subsided, he didn't realize it. It was not until Fang Teng felt something was wrong and shook Xiao Yan gently, and then he realized it.

All the generals in the city looked at themselves and had finished speaking. No matter what difficulties or obstacles there were, as long as the King of Yan gave the order, they would follow closely without hesitation!

Xiao Yan faced their eyes, smiled faintly, and slammed Hu's armrest: "Are you finished talking?"

The generals responded like thunder: "It's all over!"

Xiao Yan asked again: "I'll talk about so much, I'll ask you one question, do you dare to fight?"

The generals looked at each other and all shouted: "Why don't you dare?"

Xiao Yan stood up and pressed his sword to look at the generals: "I have decided to go to the whole army and be able to hunt with the Jurchens! In this battle, our status will be unshakable in the Song Dynasty! Who is fucking patiently fighting with Cai Jing and the other guys in Bianliang? All of us are fucked! Whoever is dissatisfied, watch how we fight! Fuck it!"

This is Xiao Yan, who is familiar to all the generals. He started from scratch and struggled out of Yan land with them. He was full of sharpness and forced to kill Xiao Yan with his enemy's blood and head!

For a moment, all the generals were about to rush to the forehead! Everyone slammed the breastplate hard: "I will die for the King of Yan!"

Xiao Yan laughed and waved his hand suddenly: "You may have less than a month left. I hope you can train your troops! The daily ingredients are doubled, and I don't care about you if I buy all the meat and vegetables in Bianliang. When I lack money, I ask Mr. Zuo for it! Then when I stop taking some things in Bianliang, we will go north! If you want to be a marquis, want to pass on to your descendants, and even go to Lingyan Pavilion in the future, it depends on your ability!"

The generals suddenly burst out with cheers, and they were about to lift the top of the tent!

Xiao Yan looked back at Zuo Zaiji again. The generals were happy when they heard the battle, and Xiao Yan's sharp attitude made Zuo Zaiji's face turn red, and he raised his beard and clenched his fists. He didn't stand up and cheered, which was considered as his identity as a literati.

He was worse than the generals, and was born as a Liao person from the South and was tied up with Xiao Yan so tightly that he could not be tighter. His experience in the north also reduced the femininity of the literati of the Song Dynasty. He agreed with Xiao Yan's philosophy. When all kinds of situations were entangled, if you win a battle, you will solve everything!

"Mr. Zuo, it's already hard for you to clear out the original imperial guard's financial plan and supply the new army in these days. But I still have to worry about you more. In addition to double the supply of the new army's daily use, I will raise a hundred thousand troops and the same amount of civilians to use for half a year! Under my nose, there is not so much money, and a penny can be used for one penny. When raising the food and money, I will give you the right to kill. Which minor official is in it and will decide without waiting for his later life!"

Zuo Liaoji stood up excitedly: "Please rest assured that the student dares not do his best!"

Xiao Yan's eyes finally turned to Fang Teng, who spread his hands: "What are the students' assignments?"

Xiao Yan smiled again: "Your dispatch is to make my marriage so glorious. I almost feel decent, so I will settle the score with you."

Fang Teng smiled: "What else can students not do with the money of King Huayan? King Yan is just waiting to be a delighted guest."
Chapter completed!
