At noon on this day, all the leading military officers stayed at Bamianlou for lunch.~
According to the current saying, Li Po, the general of Heng'an Town, had a banquet with the generals of Heng'an Town, Yu Bamenlou.
The actual situation was similar. During the interplay of cups and chips, all the generals were originally worried, and looking at the general's face, they were all a little cautious.
There was no way, for more than an hour, the general had nothing to say to him.
Situations like this are rare. Speaking of which, everyone's impression of this young general is that he is not very broad-minded, and there are many times when he will find your faults, no matter how big or small.
Of course, you want to say how stingy this general is, but it is nonsense. Now, let alone these leading captains, even those battalion lieutenants, brigade commanders and so on, the number of times they have been hit by the marching law
In fact, there are only a handful of them.
How should I put it? This general's ability to find trouble is different from other generals, and there are no certain rules.
Sometimes they will make you lose face, sometimes they will make you work hard for a few times, and sometimes they will hang you there, unable to get up or down. The soldiers and generals will definitely look at you with the same look.
It's weird, no matter what, it's quite uncomfortable.
Many times, people who have been wronged will think that the general acted in a shady manner and lost his identity as a general.
But when I turned around and thought about it again, it was much better than being spanked in public.
Moreover, those stern and formidable generals in the army would kill people at every turn to establish their prestige. In order to show the strict military laws, they did not care about their closeness. Sometimes, in order to show their attitude and frighten the whole army, they would even find people close to them to deal with them.
Everyone understands that this is the way to be a general, facing a group of killers. Your heart must be hard and your methods must be ruthless. Everyone has indeed done this.
But now this general is different. If you think about it, he has never killed any general or soldiers in the army to enforce military law.
To say that this is also a flaw that is tinged with kindness is because it is said that kindness cannot control soldiers.
But then again, can words like kindness really be associated with this general? By now, the number of people killed by the Heng'an Town Army has almost piled up.
Not to mention killing prisoners, the Turks who put down their swords and guns were slaughtered a lot, especially during the trip to the grassland in the tenth year of Daye. Wherever the Heng'an Town Army went, they killed all men, women, old and young.
, with such a heart, you say kindness? You didn’t drink too much, did you?
Anyway, no matter what, this young general has used the blood of countless enemies to create his own reputation and majesty.
The entire Heng'an town army was convinced.
When he lowered his face and spoke in a very unpleasant tone, the almost stagnant atmosphere spoke volumes.
The beginning of the banquet was indeed solemn.
Li Po picked up the wine cup. "Last year, the Turks invaded in large numbers. We, the soldiers of Heng'an Town, are not afraid of life and death, and kill the enemy without any calculation. We keep the peace of the territory... Battalion Commander ****, Brigade Commander Shen Qing, Brigade Commander
Liu Chunsan, brigade commander... We are able to drink and laugh here today only because of these heroic men who threw their heads and blood and fought to the death."
"Come and let us pay our respects to the soldiers who have died in the past two years, and wish that their heroic souls will be immortal and stay here forever."
Everyone's hearts were filled with excitement, and they raised their glasses solemnly. As Li Po spilled half of the glass of wine on the ground, everyone drank the rest in one gulp.
After that, Li Po said again: "Due to all the delays, I haven't been able to pay homage to these dead soldiers so far. Yuchi Gong..."
"The end will be here."
"After that, you also go to Wang Bingcao and ask him to send you some craftsmen to go to the east of the city to repair the previous cemetery and erect a monument. From now on, all the people who died in the battle of our Hengzhen army will be buried in it.
, it will be repaired in a while, and we in Heng'an Town will hold sacrifices to summon the souls of the dead soldiers."
"From now on, when newly recruited soldiers are recruited, the first thing they have to do is to take them there to pay homage. From then on, it will be a routine practice. These soldiers were all well-known men from the North during their lifetime, and after death, they will also be regarded as ghost heroes in the underworld."
"The general will obey the order."
A few words made all these military generals feel warm in their hearts, and their chests were filled with thousands of heroic spirits ready to come out.
You should be a hero in life and a hero in death. A good man should be like this.
Having said this, Li Po raised the wine cup again, "This glass is for you all. When the world is in chaos, all the heroes are vying for strength. Only we can resist foreign humiliation and protect the country and the people. Let's drink this glass with peace of mind."
.”
The generals raised their glasses again and drank them all in one gulp. At this time, their chests were already burning as if they were about to burn.
Because this is what the Heng'an Army is most proud of. Hundreds of thousands of Turkic troops marched south. Only they dared to stand up and fight with the Turks in the mountains and wilderness. They won consecutive battles with the blood of countless Turks.
, created the prestige of Heng'an Zhenjun.
What's even more valuable is that they also used this to feed thousands of people in Yunnei. When it comes to protecting the country and the people, they deserve it.
Then, Li Po raised his glass again, "This glass is to wish that we can finally have a good year. Damn it, since the eighth year of the Great Cause, we have been fighting for years and have never stopped. Now the world is in chaos."
It's almost over, and the emperor finally went to Jiangdu."
"From now on, our Heng'an army will not count on anyone. All we can count on is the war horses under our crotches and the swords and guns in our hands. The saying that the title of marquis must be taken on horseback, isn't that what we are talking about?"
"If you are willing to follow me and challenge princes and generals, drink this cup to the full. If you don't dare, forget it."
After saying that, he looked at everyone and laughed wantonly and wildly.
Eyes that were either deep, cold, or sharp all lit up.
This is almost equivalent to a declaration of rebellion. If you ask these soldiers and generals if they dare to follow, there is no need to ask. Many people have been waiting for this statement for a long time.
Once the arrogant and powerful generals were not suppressed by the imperial court, their ideas would be so bold that it would be terrifying. Moreover, they were also the most elite frontier troops in the Sui Dynasty.
They have strong combat power but extremely low loyalty. This is the characteristic of the frontier army, and it has also been a headache for every dynasty since ancient times. As long as someone takes the lead, they can do anything.
Compared with these wolves and tigers, the rebels who are making a fuss all over the world are not even on the same level.
There was only silence in the lobby, as if it was ignited. Li Wu stood up first.
He bowed and raised the wine glass above his head, "Li Wu is willing to lead the horse and lead the horse, even if he dies, he will have no regrets."
Bu Qun on the other side was annoyed, why was he so slow at such a time?
He almost jumped up, spilling more than half of the wine on his body, but he still raised the wine glass above his head, "Buqun is willing to lead the saddle and the horse, even if he dies, he will have no regrets."
The voices sounded one after another, and finally they converged into one, "We are willing to follow the general's lead and lead the horse, even if we die, we will have no regrets."
Li Po raised his wine glass high, his voice was not loud, but it echoed in everyone's ears, "Okay, if we are united as one, why worry about not accomplishing anything? Come on, let's have a drink..."
At this time, Li Bi, who was sitting in the back hall, was listening with her ears pricked up. At this point, she finally smiled.
I was also appreciating in my heart that even though my husband was usually playful and smiling, he could always do it neatly when it came to big things.
The words he said were like a heavy hammer, hitting people's hearts every time. Even listening to her here, her blood was boiling and she wished she could draw her sword and kill someone to calm her mind.
The only thing that worries her is that her relatives are still in Chang'an. If they do something here, their father will be put in danger.
Of course, there is no need to worry too much now. As long as the plan is good, the word "rebel" will not be used against the Heng'an Town Army.
In today's world, I don't know how many people are plotting with their confidants to do something great.
She and her husband were far away in the clouds, and the eyes of the big shots couldn't see that far.
Just as he was thinking about it, a figure flashed at the door, and Li Chun had already slipped in. He smiled and said: "Sister-in-law is eavesdropping again. Brother knows, and he will be unhappy."
Li Bi's head is full of black lines.
Then, there was the sound of footsteps at the door, and the red-eyed child poked his head in, and walked in with heavy steps that didn't look like a woman at all.
Li Bi curled her lips. She also felt that the yin in the family was too strong and the yang was weak. It would be great if there was a man and a woman, and the yin and yang were in harmony...
This banquet lasted for a long time.
The generals drank together and couldn't stop drinking. From depression at the beginning, to impassioned later, and then it became more normal.
You respect me, and I respect you. They were just pretending at first, but after three rounds of drinking, these guys showed their true colors one by one.
Fortunately, Li Po is always here, otherwise, these drunk guys might be able to roll up their arms and sleeves in the restaurant and compete with their fists to see who is the hero.
It wasn't until sunset that the captains, whose faces were red from drinking, left the eight-sided building one after another and went back to their homes.
Li Po returned to the back and drank the hot tea brought by Li Chun.
He didn't drink much, he just felt a little tired. You know, after coming back from Yunzhong Grassland, he was busy with all kinds of things and had no clear time, which made him a little tired.
But after appeasing the generals, we are not done yet. There are still many things waiting for us in the future.
Li Po sighed slightly in his heart, it was a busy winter again, but he didn't have to suffer the cold anymore.
Looking into his wife's bright eyes, he put down the tea bowl helplessly and muttered, "Don't look at it, you must have listened behind me, what? Is there anything wrong?"
Li Bi smiled and said, "My husband is so talented, what can be wrong with me? I just think that my husband has advanced too fast in studying and practicing calligraphy. It is really good to be granted the title of Marquis right away."
Li Po drank a little too much, and when his wife complimented him, he said casually with a little pride: "You should not talk about the matter of becoming a marquis... I can only get my fame on the horse."
It's pieced together, and it's quite a sentence.
