The Snowy Path of the Heroic Blade Chapter 237: It’s the imperial decree again, see Tai’an City again
A cavalry army that left the jurisdiction of the prince without permission without the permission of the imperial court, eight hundred cavalry, from Beiliang Road Youzhou to Hezhou, passing Jizhou, and slowly heading to the west of Gyeonggi Province. [Full text reading]
Walking all the way, the states and local garrisons that should have come out to stop this Qingqi, all were silent, and there was not even a symbolic question to ask, making Yaoqi ride on the entire northern frontier defense heavy ground in Liyang, as if entering nothing. In the human realm, before this, the Jingqi on the North Mang East Line had also acted like this on the northern defense line of the two states of Jihe. The number of troops is only eight hundred.
According to common sense, there are only 800 people, not to mention Liaodong, where the two sides are heavily stationed from Yangbei and Mang.
As the eight hundred horses traveled eastward far from being fast and fast, a letter came from the espionage of the princes and important officials such as Cai Nan, the economic ambassador, Han Lin, the king of Han Zhaoxiong, and the vice-general Yang Huchen of Jizhou. The speed of eight hundred miles was passed to the capital.
Finally, on the westernmost edge of Gyeonggi, an elite division full-time responsible for the safety of the capital has appeared. It is the three major battalions of the Western Army of the Jifu Garrison with the West Base Camp as the main force. , Riding half and half. This western army was supposed to be led by Yuan Tingshan Yao, who was named General Pingxi, but this General Jizhou can’t even hold his job as General Jizhou, let alone fight against the western army second only to the North Gyeonggi Army. A little bit of control. Today, the 7,000 Western Army is led by General Zhao Gui from the Zhao family's clan, Hu Qi, one of the four capital lieutenants with the rank of General Fenwu on his head, and Yuchi Changgong as his lieutenant.
The seven thousand people who are nurturing their energy, and the 800 Qingqi who are servants of the wind and dust, turned out to be the former like a great enemy.
Yuchi Changgong, who is as famous as Yang Huchen, Song Li and other young and strong generals, is okay. In the end, he can still maintain his calm on the face, but the serious Anxi General Zhao Gui is sweating like rain, and he shrinks and sits. On horseback, full of complaints, whispering cursing that the elders in the clan mansion are not good things, is it a fake to say that the body is ill? Even Tang Tieshuang of the Ministry of War opened his eyes and closed his eyes to approve it. He never thought that his family had harmed his family in the first place, and even threatened to impeach him if he did not want to lead the army this time. Back down.
Zhao Gui drinking the northwest wind from the scorching sun above his head, he really wanted to die. If it was ten years ago, he would lead a seven thousand army to intercept hundreds of Beiliang barbarians on his own territory, don’t say anything. The Ministry of War and the Clan’s Mansion were both hard and soft. They couldn’t stop him from taking credit. It was just that as the cavalry left Beiliang, some gossip came from the northwest to the central capital of the capital, and then from the gate of the Yamen. It was some of the bead curtains of the palace floating out of the gaps. After hearing those shocking news, Zhao Gui, who was far more capable of fighting in bed than using a knife on the battlefield, was completely embarrassed. These Beiliang barbarians really defeated Beimang. Millions of troops? It is said that even Beimang's famous general Yang Yuanzan had his head cut off in that ghost place called Hulukou? Some people even vowed to say that the Jingguan in Youzhou is one after another, just like the number of snowmen we piled up in Beijing in winter?
Zhao Guizui Pizi fought fiercely, turned around and asked Yuchi Changgong tremblingly: "General Yuchi, in case Xu Xiaomanzi... Oh no, it is the King of Northern Liang, he refused to stop. If they do, is it possible that we really want to fight them?"
In the early years, it was this clan nobleman who was squeezed out of the position of General Anxi, Yuchi Changgong said with a blank expression: "General Zhao, the plan from above is like this, I can't wait for my orders."
In the past, Zhao Gui, who had deliberately called to Master Lieutenant when he met Captain Chi Changgong, struggled to squeeze out a smiley face and said: "In the military books, it is not a soldier who will be defeated without a fight. If Liang Wang doesn’t know the general situation, I have a good relationship with the Southern Army. Otherwise, let me know and call for thousands of people to come over? It’s also good to teach the Northern Liang Wang to know the mighty power of our Gyeonggi Garrison."
Yuchi Changgong said flatly: "General Zhao, if the final general remembers correctly, no matter who it is, he dare to send the soldiers and horses of Gyeonggi to leave the station to beheaded, not to mention you and me, not even Tang Shi Lang of the Ministry of War. This qualification."
Zhao Guigan smiled and said: "I'm not worried about the young prince who has been in the northwest all the year round. I don't know how powerful it is."
Yuchi Changgong squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. He was not interested in chatting with the General Anxi, but patiently waited for the next group of scouts to return military information. Compared with the so-called generals like Zhao Gui, who was raised from the shortest in the clan, Yuchi Changgong and the crown went to the front line of the Liaodong border. He was down to earth and worked hard to become a frontier school lieutenant, and then he opened up the joints in the family. Returning to Beijing step by step and promoted to his current position, Yuchi Changgong is naturally not the kind of stuff like Zhao Gui who only relies on his surname. The boss in Beijing who really knows the situation of the Beiliang war in detail at the moment is definitely not more than a pair of hands, that is. The Ministry of War, now the book is still in the air, and the minister Xu Gong is patrolling the side. Perhaps only Tang Tieshuang, the servant in charge of the Ministry of War in the capital, knows the inside story. Because of his experience in Liaodong, Yuchi Changgong has some precious personal relationships with Shi Lang, so Knowing more about the facts of the Northwest than Zhao Gui, not only was it certain that Beiliang had repelled the millions of troops in the third line of Beimang, but also that there were a few rough battle damages between Liang and Mang. In addition, Wei Chi Changgong was personally instructed on the border. The more the Beimang Cavalry’s amazing combat power, the more shocked Yuchi Changgong was. Don’t look at him at this time compared to Zhao Gui. In fact, Yuchi Changgong’s right hand never left the saber on his waist. The joints are all white.
Maybe Zhao Gui was just afraid of the young man’s status as a feudal lord, fearing the 300,000 Northern Liang cavalry, and at most adding the terrifying title of the martial arts master of the new Liang Wang, but Yuchi Changgong is true. The seven thousand people who have not been confident enough to stay away from the gunpowder for many years can really withstand the charge of the eight hundred cavalry? One rush to stabilize the formation, after two or three times? In the battlefield of official history, with the right pawns against the chaotic thieves, the first-class elites against the ordinary ones, the superiority of the forces on the table has never been meaningless, not to mention the distance, it is only 20 or 30 years away. During the Spring and Autumn Wars, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of robbers as numerous as locusts killed thousands of imperial armies. How could there be less? On a large-scale battlefield, it is not uncommon for one party to break the enemy's formation with thousands or even hundreds of elites. In the past, Yuchi Changgong did not despise the Beiliang Frontier Army, which is known as the world's iron cavalry armour. Although not as contemptuous as Liyang scholar scholars, it was not too serious. He always felt that the veteran Yang Shenxing’s Jinan infantry did not say that he could follow Youzhou. The pawns are always the same when they are higher, and they think that the two liao defenses are like Doyan Jingqi, Heishui Iron Cavaliers and other hundred warriors, even if they are placed in the northern Liang border army, they are the first-class combat power, but So Yuchi Changgong is not so optimistic.
Yuchi Changgong subconsciously clenched the hilt of the knife, and his mood was extremely complicated. Assuming that the Northern Liang Cavalry was not hundreds of thousands, but the real 300,000, would it be possible to go straight to the Beiting in the hinterland of Beimang and help the Central Plains? Conquer the desert and grassland for the first time? But if Beiliang really had such a strength, since he could defeat Beimang, then it would be even more difficult to defeat the Tai'an city behind him, how difficult could it be?
When the scouts galloped over to report that the eight hundred horses were no more than ten miles away, Zhao Guiqiang smiled and asked: "General Yuchi, if you want to come, the king of Beiliang will not really make a big move at the feet of the emperor?"
Yuchi Changgong no longer felt like Zhao Gui fell into the pit, frowning and saying: "Wait for them to advance for five miles. If Beiliang takes the initiative to send scouts to contact our army, it means that the king will Follow the rules."
Unconsciously, Zhao Gui's helmet was a bit crooked, he reached out and tremblingly helped, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and asked in a low voice: "If you can't see the Northern Liang Pioneer scout, what shall we do?"
Yuchi Changgong said solemnly: "It's just an array to meet the enemy."
Zhao Gui shivered, and almost fell off his horse on the spot. He hid and concealed his embarrassment. He comforted himself and said: "It should not be possible. The post house is still in the court hall, and it still understands the rules."
General Anxi apparently has automatically ignored the actions of his Royal Highness outside the Imperial College and the turmoil in the Jiujiu Pavilion, and he also threw away his bold ambitions that he would have to make a move if he encountered the little barbarian. Later.
The confrontation between the two armies lasted only five miles, and there was still no Northern Liang cavalry appearing.
Zhao Gui slapped his face and said angrily: "You crow's mouth!"
Yuchi Changgong doesn't need to look at the **** behind him, he already feels the suffocating sense of oppression.
Remember that back then, when Hu Qi school Wei Chi Changgong went to battle for the first time as a cavalry sergeant in Liaodong, it was as if he could clearly hear his heavy breathing.
Because of being overly nervous, the new pawns often become silent in the whole world before they rush into the battle, even making people unable to hear the drums of war.
The distance is only three miles away, and there is still no Northern Liang cavalry leaving the team.
Zhao Guiru lost the heart to talk to Yuchi Changgong. He had dementia and muttered to himself on horseback: "King of Beiliang, can we speak well? After all, Beiliang and Liyang are still the same family. People, it’s not good for your family to use knives and guns. Have you killed hundreds of thousands of Beimang barbarians and haven’t killed enough? Killing your own people is a hero... Besides, your prince, your elders are with Deng. Too great, a master who fights and kills with people like me, so he loses his worth!"
Yuchi Changgong raised a hand high, did not turn back, and shouted as hard as he could: "Get up!"
The four thousand infantry troops are in the center, and they are deployed in layers to resist the horse. The shield is like a wall, and the archer is ready to draw the bow.
A total of more than 3,000 cavalry on the left and right wings began to lift their spears.
According to the espionage of Lianghuai and Zhao Gou, the eight hundred Beiliang Qingqi had never carried a long spear, and was only a crossbow saber.
Yuchi Changgong, who had already rode his horse to the front of the left-wing West Base Camp cavalry, found sadly that he seemed to be the youngster of the Liaodong Frontier Army who had fallen into battle for the first time.
The West Base Camp is the first battalion of the Western Army in Gyeonggi. It has always been above the top and firmly believes that one West Base Battalion can defeat the other two battalions.
The camp number was taken from Xi Lei Bi.
But for more than two decades, including Yuchi Changgong himself, they have forgotten who killed the West Leibi.
It seems that only at this time, when they stand on the opposite side of Beiliang, and really need to face the Xu family iron cavalry by themselves, will they realize this forgotten truth.
The pale-faced General Zhao Gui of Anxi took a team of self-riding soldiers to the right wing of the cavalry army, and kept turning his head to look at Yuchi Changgong's side. This was the first time in his life he regretted having a bad relationship with Yuchi Changgong.
In every battle, there must be generals leading the way. Originally, it was the Liyang military law, but apart from the two Liao Dynasty, at most, the southern Xinjiang, the army in most other places, more or less, is no longer so abrupt. Rigid.
At this moment, the main general Zhao Gui was slowly retreating backwards, causing a slight disturbance in the entire right-wing cavalry, and the formation became disorganized.
The ordinary soldiers in the Western Army of Gyeonggi, although they don’t know the amazing news that Beiliang has broken the North Mang, but no one has heard that Xinliangwang is the master of martial arts who has defeated the king Xianzhi of Emperor Wudi. This kind of flies is flying. The gods who went, even if they felt that the young prince alone could not kill the seven thousand army, is it possible to kill seven or eight hundred people? As one of the two-winged cavalry, charging forward, isn't it the one who died first? In this way, one of the three or four cavalry will die. If you are not lucky, can you just kill the chicken? Step back ten thousand steps and say that he was lucky enough to survive. The 300,000 young vassal king of the Northern Liang Iron Cavalry Co-lord died in this place and caused the Northern Liang army to attack Tai'an City. Who is the account of this account? It's not their little pawns! The six high-ranking big guys will tell you about their loyalty?
Under the sun, on the ground.
In the eyes of everyone, the Qingqi, all dressed in white armor, was shining brightly.
The eight hundred cavalry moved forward slowly, but did not start the charge for the time being.
Just before everyone thought that the Northern Liang Cavalry would stop, and then they sent people to negotiate with the two adults, General Hu Qi, Lieutenant Anxi.
The vision is overwhelming!
Babaiqi almost blinked and displayed a charging formation.
There is no iron gun.
But the eight hundred white armored Qingqi all held the Beiliangdao around his waist.
The Northern Liang Cavalry, which is clearly inferior in strength, faces the 7,000-man army of the imperial court who is waiting to work. They will still draw their swords out of their sheaths at any time, and they will start charging at any time.
The Anxi General Zhao Gui began to rush, but instead of smashing the enemy, he showed amazing riding skills and went to the end of the right-wing cavalry.
School Hu Qi, Wei Chi Changgong is very clear that as long as the Northern Liang Cavalry begins to charge, whether one's own victory or defeat is a trivial matter, once the imperial court and Bei Liang are completely separated from each other, they will settle accounts after the autumn. Yuchi Changgong and the entire Yuchi family couldn't bear this guilt.
But he can't go back at the same time, he can't go back even one step.
If he retires today, then even if his career in this life is completely finished, not only will he suffer a long time, but the whole family will not want to have a comfortable life in Liyang officialdom.
So Yuchi Changgong suddenly pinched his horse's belly and rode out on his own. He reached the Northern Liang Cavalry's front line and less than a hundred steps before he bowed his fists and said loudly: "The final general, Wei Chi Changgong, see the King of Northern Liang! "
Each row of cavalry frontline in Beiliang has no more than two hundred people, and in the middle area, there is a dazzling ordinary carriage alone parked, and there are only four or five escorts nearby.
The front curtain of the carriage is static and drooping.
Lieutenant Hu Qi, who did not receive any response, continued to lower his head and said loudly: "Enjoy the King of Northern Liang! When the king enters the capital, according to the law of Liyang, the two kings of Beiliang and Huainan need to stop Ma Jingji and the Western Army. Camp!"
Yuchi Changgong held his fist and lived like years.
The real power captain gritted his teeth and slowly raised his head. When he saw a Northern Liang cavalry with the appearance of a captain, there was no sign of speaking, except that the gesture had changed from holding a knife to drawing a knife.
Yuchi Chang swallowed his saliva and bit his scalp hoarsely and said: "The final admiral begs the King of Beiliang to act in accordance with the law!"
At this moment, there was an uproar from the Western Army.
Yuchi Chang, who was already ashamed, turned his head in amazement and saw the three riding galloping. One of them was wearing a striking red python robe, an old **** in the palace, holding a yellow silk in one hand and hissing in a sharp voice. Shouted: "The imperial decree is here!"
In addition, there was a rather young official in the two horses who accompanied him. Look at that official man, he should be a leader from the Ministry of War.
Yuchi Changgong was relieved immediately, as if he had walked through the gate of a ghost, except that he did not limp on his horse.
Lieutenant Hu Qi, who was listening to the announcement by the eunuch, did not listen carefully to what the imperial decree said. He only heard a general meaning, saying that His Majesty allowed the eight hundred princes to ride with the Northern Liang King. Entering Beijing, stationed near Xia Mawei Post House.
When the old mang robe **** shouted out the two words to accept the order, the audience was silent.
Especially the young military officer, with his mouth curled up, laughing playfully.
The official of the Ministry of rites who was unlucky and was arrested to be a villain would have a lot of old Daocheng Mansion, just watch his nose and his heart, if it wasn't just the end of the imperial edict, he would want to pretend to doze off on horseback.
The curtain of the car doesn't move.
The old eunuch, who sits high in the position of the eunuch, the eunuch, has a stiff face like a tree bark, which is exactly the same as a car curtain, without moving at all.
Even Yuchi Changgong could feel the gloomy breath of the old eunuch.
As the second-in-command of the prison guard, one of the many eunuchs in Tai'an City, he was able to wear a red python robe. At this moment, even in the face of such a rebellious courtier, the old man is still desperately depressed. Staying anger, not showing any superfluous expressions, not saying anything, holding the imperial edict.
A voice sounded, "Done?"
The old **** was stunned for a moment, finally lowered his head, and said slowly: "It's over."
The voice in the car didn't have any tone fluctuations, "Then give way to the king."
Yuchi Chang Gong was dumbfounded.
The young military officer was about to scold him, and the elderly **** immediately turned his head and gave the latter a gloomy look.
Then this superintendent of the ceremonies and the eunuch, Bingbi, who had to treat each other with courtesy, whispered to Yuchi Changgong softly: "School Lieutenant Yuchi, I'm not escorting the King of Beiliang yet."
When Chang Yuchi turned his horse to command the army to disperse the formation, now the most popular celebrities in the capital, Gao Tingshu, the best-known leader in the military inspection and political patrol, clenched his fists and pierced his nails. Palm.
The old **** lowered his eyebrows and said with a thin throat: "The King of Northern Liang, the old slave has to return to Beijing first, so he can't accompany the prince."
There was no response from the carriage.
The old **** took the first to return with two officials from the Ministry of War and Ritual Department.
The imperial edict is still there.
Since Liyang ruled the world, from the first year of Yonghui to the second year of Xiangfu, only two imperial edicts have been rejected.
Moreover, the rebellious person who rejected the imperial edict twice was the same person.
It's the King of Northern Liang who doesn't even bother to lift the car curtain.
The official of the Ministry of Etiquette carefully glanced at the **** Bingbi, the eunuch, but there was no change in the old man's face.
Gao Tingshu turned his head and glanced at the eight hundred cavalry troops passing through the center of the Western Army's infantry formation, sneered: "What a big shelf!"
The official of the Ministry of Etiquette clearly didn't see how Bingbi's eunuch's lips opened, but he could only hear a small smile leaking from his throat, which made him creepy.
The corners of Gao Tingshu's mouth were raised again~IndoMTL.com~ It was previously that he slowed down intentionally or unintentionally, and Eunuch Bingbi did not raise any objections.
Gao Tingshu knew that a good show was about to kick off.
Because this is Tai'an City, not Beiliang.
————
When the city wall of Tai'an City came into the eyes of the Northern Liang Cavalry little by little, it appeared taller and majestic.
Xu Fengnian finally raised a corner of the curtain and looked up. Wearing the feudal king's python robe sewn by the Beiliang Jinli Weaving Bureau, he smiled at the horseman who drove: "Last time I came here, I thought the city wall was very high. Looking at it now, it seems that it's not as good as those of our gourd mouth. Sitting in Beijing."
Xu Yanbing, who was acting as a groom, twitched the corners of his mouth and said nothing.
In the second year of Xiangfu, in late autumn, the king of Beiliang entered Beijing. R1058
