The Shun'an Army was located in Yi County, near Yishui, and located in Qiyang. It was originally a county under Zhuozhou, but was returned to Khitan during the Shi and Jin Dynasties. In the early Han Dynasty, taking advantage of the success of Zhao Yanshou's northern expedition to Youzhou, it was recovered by He Fujin's army. Later, it was recovered by He Fujin. Liu Chengyou reorganized the northern border defense, and Guiyi County became the garrison of Shun'an Army. The name of the city pass became very famous, namely Waqiao Pass.
The original intention of establishing Waqiao Pass was to resist the threat of the Khitan. Of course, the specific effect it had has yet to be discussed. After all, when Yelu Deguang went south, he could be considered to have crossed it calmly. Now, the name is not famous enough, and it is not It's not a dangerous barrier.
The reputation of the Three Passes in Hebei Province slowly spread during the Northern Song Dynasty's defense of the Khitan. For today's Han Dynasty, its excellent location as a geographical thoroughfare still continued to be used, reinforced, repaired, and set up dangers for defense.
The military envoy of Shun'an is Luo Yanxuan. As an early general who took refuge with Liu Chengyou, he has been stationed in the north since the founding of the People's Republic of China and moved to Waqiao Pass for two years. Although he does not have much military merit, his status in the army is However, the qualifications are gradually improving.
Because the strategic focus of the country is in the south and the northern garrison, the Han army can basically only train and garrison, and has no chance to make meritorious deeds. Over the years, many generals guarding the border have become more or less unbalanced.
Liu Chengyou also cared about the emotions of these generals and understood them, so he never paid less attention to Luo Yanxuan and other generals. Although he lacked actual military exploits, his rank continued to improve, and his salary increased regularly. During the New Year and the holidays, rewards and rewards from the emperor and the court are indispensable. From time to time, the generals of the court were sent north to patrol the border to inspect the military situation and pay attention to the morale of the soldiers. Last year, the palace commander Murong Yanzhao was ordered to patrol.
So far, among Liu Chengyou's several patrols, the ones with the greatest movement and the farthest distance were those to the north for hunting patrols. This shows that he attaches great importance to the military in the north.
On the first day of April in the ninth year of Qianyou's reign, the sun was shining brightly, the sky was clear and the clouds were clear. On the south bank of Yishui River, 1,500 mighty soldiers were arrayed here. The officers and soldiers were neatly dressed, majestic and majestic, and each wore a newly issued uniform. Summer clothes.
The flags are different. These soldiers are not all garrison soldiers under the Shun'an Army, but capable men selected by the five armies in the north and the capital deployment headquarters. However, after hearing that the emperor was patrolling the north, a group of military generals discussed and decided to Under the arrangement of An Shenqi, they all selected elites from the army to come, not only to welcome the emperor, but also to prepare for review.
After all, the emperor rarely came to the north once, and he wanted to perform well. Of course, this matter was reported to the camp in advance and received the emperor's approval. Otherwise, the charge of mobilizing the army without authorization would be unbearable. He was still sensitive to the arrival of the emperor. During this period, even An Shenqi was honored as the Prince of Chenliu County.
In front of the queue, dozens of Han generals from up and down the north stood in a strict manner. Among them, in addition to deploying An Shenqi, they were Luo Yanxu of the Shun'an army, Ma Quanyi of the Yongqing army, Dong Zunjie of the Baoding army, and Xiong Han Lingkun of the An Army and Guo Jin of the Xin'an Army were envoyed by the Fifth Army. These were the core generals of the Han Dynasty's northern defense.
The monsoon wind carried the moisture of the sea and rivers, blowing by, flags fluttering, and ropes fluttering. The soldiers had been waiting for a long time, but none of them showed any signs of impatience. They all remained standing solemnly, like sculptures.
No matter what was going on in his heart, at least he always maintained calmness and patience on his face. Even An Shenqi, who was in his sixties, stood quietly in front of him, so how could anyone else complain.
When the sun went up, everyone had been waiting for nearly two hours. Several knights with small flags on their backs came galloping towards them. They jumped down vigorously and bowed in response: "Commander Qi, your chariot has arrived five miles away." outside!"
After saying this, everyone was in high spirits. An Shenqi, who had a long beard and a long beard, immediately waved his hand and ordered: "Everyone brace up and prepare to meet the enemy. We will show the most majestic appearance of our Northern Army in front of His Majesty." , whoever made a mistake, I don’t need to say more, right?"
"yes!"
After another two-quarters of an hour of waiting, as the ceremonial guard emerged, the imperial driver slowly came north. On the south bank of Yishui River, drums and horns suddenly sounded. The mighty officers and men of the Northern Army warmly welcomed the imperial driver and paid homage to him with military salutes.
Feeling the majestic momentum of the Northern Army, the Imperial Guards escorting them also subconsciously raised their chests and faced them with solemn concentration, as if they wanted to compete with them. After all, who is not an elite man?
When Luan Jia arrived in front of the army, Liu Chengyou slowly walked out of the car, stood on the shaft, and his eyes fell on the soldiers who were greeting him. This was the second time he went out to receive greetings since his Northern Patrol.
"In the north, I have deployed my minister An Shenqi, along with all the soldiers from the north, to welcome His Majesty for his inspection!" An Shenqi took the lead and bowed in obeisance.
After scanning around, the feeling of thousands of troops crouching down was really intoxicating. Liu Chengyou waved his hand and said: "All soldiers are exempt from courtesy!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, please inspect the three armies!" An Shenqi was in front, excited.
"allow!"
An Shenqi immediately made a gesture, and the military formation behind them immediately raised their swords and guns, with uniform movements, and the mountains shouted long live. Although there were not many people, and they were on the bank of the open Yishui River, the sudden explosion was still shocking enough. , comparable to ten thousand armies.
"Your Majesty, please cross the river and enter the customs!" An Shenqi asked.
He turned around and entered the palace, winking at Zhang Dejun. Zhang Dejun said loudly: "Your Majesty has an order, please come to the palace and speak to me!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" An Shenqi obeyed the order respectfully, but his face remained calm. At his age and status, ordinary people are not easily moved. Of course, facing the emperor's kindness and respect, he should have the appropriate attitude. Chen Jie's performance is still in place, his attitude is polite and respectful.
"General, please lead the horse and support the shaft for Your Majesty!" After An Shenqi boarded the chariot, Luo Yanyu stood up and said respectfully.
"allow!"
After receiving the permission, Luo Yanxuan immediately beamed with joy and hurriedly stepped forward to attend him. His expression and movements did not look like a general who had been in the town for many years, but more like a flattering bitch.
Seeing his performance, the remaining military envoys were more or less despised. Of course, most of them felt regret and envy, and never wanted this guy to take the lead.
Luo Yanxu was always alert, with accurate vision, and quick to spot opportunities. From the beginning, when the world was uncertain, the Central Plains was not yet in control, and the Khitan was in great power, Luo Yanxu intercepted the army and horses and defected to Liu Chengyou, which shows how extraordinary he was.
Under the instigation of Luo Yanxuan and the charioteer, the chariot started slowly and walked towards the pontoon on the Yishui River. Outside the chariot, there were still close escorts and unabated shouts of "Long live".
While the stars were holding the moon, Liu Chengyou withdrew his gaze, looked at An Shenqi, and said with a gentle smile: "An Qing has selected all the most elite soldiers in the north to come here!"
"There are more sergeants, equally elite, who want to greet His Majesty, but they have not been selected!" An Shenqi responded.
"It's a pity that I can't receive him one person and an army, which goes against the wishes of all the soldiers!" Liu Chengyou sighed.
"When the soldiers who greet you return to their bases, they will convey His Majesty's grace and care to others!" An Shenqi's political consciousness is obviously very high.
