From the twelfth lunar month to the first lunar month, Tokyo is extra prosperous, and the festive decorations and warm atmosphere make the cold winter no longer deserted. Guo Shao found that after becoming the emperor, the holiday was easier than before, because he didn't have to go to the homes of colleagues and friends to maintain friendship. Now he only needs to read the congratulatory memos from the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.
After the beginning of the new year, the new year name began to use the new "Xuanren", which is the first year of Xuanren.
During this period of time, the Gao Yanjian group stationed in Jiangning Mansion was transferred back to Kaifeng Mansion. At this time, the number of Jiannan Army has been replenished to the reorganization of 40,000 people in the second compartment... According to the rules of the Dazhou ban, can The fighting army can be expanded; the designations that are not effective will be gradually abolished in order to save military expenditure.
The number of troops stationed in the old areas of the Southern Tang Dynasty decreased, and Cao Bin was also ordered to return to Tokyo. However, some town soldiers were mobilized from the southern part of the Central Plains and Huainan towns and stationed in Jiangnan, and the military power was completely checked and balanced by the officials sent by Tokyo and the civil officials of the Southern Tang Dynasty. The Southern Tang State currently does not have any strong military force, and limited garrisons are stationed in several large cities; however, the court ministers judged that Wu Yue State, Southern Han and other separatist forces currently have no strength and courage to harass Jiangnan, and the southern military threat is very small. This is also Guo Shao's basic judgment on shifting the military center of gravity northward. This weakened Jiangnan’s warfare capabilities, and the advantage was that Jiangnan’s warriors were divided and restricted, which was beneficial to maintaining the peace of Southern Tang.
Guo Shao has also made clear the military and political affairs and the personnel arrangements of the few roads left behind in Tokyo, and he had prepared them a long time ago. As the weather warmed slightly, Guo Shao decided to launch a war against the Northern Han Dynasty.
……The third day of the second day of the first year of Xuanren of the Great Zhou Dynasty (960 AD), the year of Gengshen, the yellow calendar says: It is suitable for sacrifice, travel, repair, and groundbreaking.
The weather is fine, and the snow and ice in Tokyo has already melted. When Guo Shao walked from the Jinxiangdian study to the corridor in the middle, the sky was already bright and the sun had not yet risen. At this time, the buildings and brick floors of the last years are not very bright, the colors are dim, and they look more primitive.
Guo Shao was followed by Jingniang, Eunuch Cao Tai, Li Shanggong, etc., but today his appearance is quite different. He is no longer wearing yellow fine robes. He wears a plate lock armor, and his whole body is The heavy metal, dressed in a purple cloak, seemed to have returned to the appearance of a Takeo. Even the walking posture and heavy footsteps are different.
As soon as he reached the end of the corridor, a small white petal on the brick floor made him stop a little. He looked up and saw that there was a winter plum here. The flowers on the branches and leaves were mutilated, and petals were falling in the air. When the wind blew, The petals fall more quickly.
Guo Shao's mood was a little moved at this time, he stretched out his hand to catch a white petal, spread it out in front of him, and took a look at the delicate flowers in his rough palm tied with cowhide. The outside is different, although it is white, but with a light red color.
Guo Shao didn't say a word. He touched the fluorene head (waist ornament) on his waist with his left hand. There were rusty stitch embroidery on it, and it was very old. Silk fabrics will become old after a few years. He looked back at the direction of the Zide Hall, threw away the petals in his hand, and walked out again.
People around him may be curious about his waist, but no one dares to ask the origin.
Walking out of the Jinxiang Palace, Lu Chengyong, Dong Er and others have been waiting there with their armored cavalry. Everyone looked up at the emperor in heavy armor, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground calling for long live. The palace **** who followed Guo Shao had no choice but to bow down.
Cao Tai said loudly: "The slaves and maids wait for your majesty to be sent off. I wish your majesty an early victory and return to the court!"
"Get up, go!" Guo Shao said.
Cao Tai hurriedly moved a stool and placed it next to the tall black horse, and knelt down to support the stool. Guo Shao walked over with a "hum", held the horse's back, stepped on the stirrups and turned on the horse vigorously. Suddenly the shouts of "driving" and "driving" sounded, and a group of armored soldiers followed him and rode away.
Guo Shao went out of Daqing Gate, joined the ministers such as Wang Pu, Li Gu, and took the emperor's umbrella cover, car guard and other ceremonial guards, and continued to walk south. In front of him is Xuande Gate, the main entrance of the Great Zhou Imperial City.
A drum sounded, and in the morning light, a neat team of soldiers walked up to the Xuande Gate City Tower. A young military commander checked the soldiers' amulet and military orders with the guards in accordance with the standard system, and then a voice sounded: "The emperor travels , Open the gate!"
The heavy entrance to the imperial city slowly opened, and the outside scene gradually appeared in sight. Guo Shao continued to ride his horse towards the city gate, and the loud sound of the bell and drum on the city gate broke his nostalgia. His mood gradually changed, and he said silently in his heart: Goodbye for now, beautiful woman, luxurious and comfortable court life, but my departure is to defend all these beautiful things.
Guo Shao, covered in battle armor, rode out of the imperial city on a tall black horse, surrounded by minister Wang Pu with gray hair and beard and the same tall generals, who swaggered out from the front door. A group of guards in the back carried a guard of honor.
When it was, the sun had just risen from the east, and the earth was shining. Guo Shao's chest widened, his blood rekindled, and he returned to his professional life: Wu Fu.
In the eye, there is a sea of people on the imperial street, and a large number of soldiers and horses of the imperial army have been waiting there. In addition, there are a large number of Tokyo citizens and family members of the imperial army, and almost all people are on the open imperial streets and on the east and west streets.
The crowd yelled noisily: "The emperor is here!"
Guo Shao rode his horse to the front of the army and looked up at the familiar Tiger Banner, the familiar generals in front of him. People gathered their eyes here one after another. Guo Shao raised the scabbard and shouted: "Great Zhou warrior, recover me!"
Guo Shao's voice immediately ignited the morale of the soldiers. The soldiers widened their eyes and shouted excitedly for long live. The shouting quickly spread in the crowd, and it seemed as if a storm was sweeping under a sunny day.
Guo Shao was given the greatest trust and dependence by the soldiers of the Forbidden Army. This was not his instigation, but he led this group of people in the north and south, traveled in every direction of the country, and experienced many battles. , No failure! Got it. In the army, Guo Shao is equivalent to the existence of a god, because as long as he leads the army, he will always win!
Guo Shao was also affected by the magnificent and glorious breath at this moment, and the bright side in his heart expanded sharply.
He also wanted to ride a horse to approach the common people outside the Royal Street. There was a mixed bag of fish and dragons. Jing Niang wanted to stop him, but Guo Shao, who was wearing heavy armor, did not listen. The dark horse is tall and strong, and Guo Shao's figure is also burly. When he and a group of cavalry passed by, the people were all afraid, and the fronts retreated. Some knelt on the ground.
Guo Shao said loudly: "I am your emperor, right here! The billion trillion people in the world are my people, including the people on the map of the Great Zhou, the Northern Han Dynasty, the Southern Han Dynasty, Wu Yue, Youyun ...And the people of the Bohai Kingdom.
I am not a military militant, I like fighting. However, the Northern Han Dynasty hijacked the people of Hedong and recognized the thieves as fathers, leaving thousands of people living in dire straits. As the emperor, how can I just sit back and watch?
Recovering the mountains and rivers is just around the corner. Great Zhou will enter a peaceful and prosperous age, end hunger and cold, end wars, clear government, fairness, love for the people, and the sun will eventually shine on the land of Kyushu..."
More and more people knelt down on the street, in front of the towering imperial city, looking like a pilgrimage.
Wang Pu and other ministers watched quietly from behind, and did not interfere with the emperor. It is very rare that the emperor actually speaks in front of the common people, that is, Guo Shao has the heart to do this. Although the ancients kept saying that the people are in favor of the world, and that the people are nobles and nobles, etc., but not many people really take civilians seriously.
Guo Shao rode his horse back to the army and shouted to the generals and soldiers: "The division of justice, defending the people of the country, victory and glory have always belonged to this banner, this time is no exception, we will win!"
"Sure victory! Victory..." the soldiers shouted loudly, morale very high.
Guo Shao then ordered the generals to pull out of the city and the army set off.
...The land on the south bank of the Yellow River is flat and fertile. After the Lantern Festival has passed, the people of the world have resumed their busy year. Along the post road, many farmers can be seen plowing in the fields. The right way is that the plan of the year lies in spring. Guo Shao's army marched from the countryside, with a strong agricultural atmosphere.
However, the soldiers did not have the sadness of going out in their poems, but were happy after hearing the war...Before going out, there were rewards, and there were more after winning. This kind of income is much more abundant than usual.
The civil servants seemed to be in a good mood. Wang Pu was still singing immediately: "Qiyue Wuyi? Same robe with son. Master Wang Yuxing, repair my spear. Revenge with son..."
The spring breeze was blowing, the journey was boring, and the generals couldn't sing, so they clamored for Wang Pu to teach them to sing. Wherever the crowd went, the surroundings also became lively.
Guo Shao's imperial conquest, but the banned soldiers who came out of Tokyo are actually only 30,000, and they don't have a lot of luggage. Their plan was to join Zhang Guanghan's tribe after arriving in Liaozhou, and the 50,000 elites would directly advance to Jinyang, the capital of the Northern Han Dynasty...In this way, it would only take more than ten days from the dispatch of troops to the approach of Jinyang.
A quick attack can grasp the initiative, and will not give the North Han country a chance to deploy. And these 50,000 elite soldiers can only watch with the strength of the North Han Army at this time. They can't help Guo Shao; the main force of the North Han Dynasty will be forced to hide in the Jinyang high wall, very passive.
Otherwise, it will take at least two months to gather more than 200,000 people from large-scale mobilization to march deployment. Beihan can have more time to prepare. So Guo Shao adopted the strategy of the Privy Council.
These 30,000 people are all elites in the palace. Including all the right armies of the Tiger and Ben Army, the three armies of the left arm, the Crane Control Army and the Horse Army have straight bows and arrows. They are also the core personnel of Guo Shao's battle. Most of the generals of the Dianqian Division were also dispatched. The only generals who stayed behind in Tokyo were Yang Biao, and his deputy Luo Mengzi and Yuan Yan to check the military orders of the Privy Council.
Preparations were made on the Yellow River earlier, and many pontoon bridges were erected. After the army crossed the Yellow River, it didn't take long to enter the boundary of Hedong. The elites of the Forbidden Army marched faster, and they were approaching the Northern Han Dynasty non-stop. The rhythm of the war that had suddenly ceased during the Chinese New Year a while ago is now becoming urgent. r1058
