It is not well-known in the market, but it is the leading dynasty center in Liyang capital. Many Huang Zi Gongqing from the three provinces and six bureaus will never have the opportunity to set foot in it. Therefore, whether officials can go to the Qintianjian library to borrow a book or two, it becomes an important matter invisibly.
It serves as a benchmark for measuring the weight of Beijing officials.
The last thing Lu Baijie did before resigning as Minister of War was to secretly transfer three thousand elite soldiers from the Inner City Forbidden Army to guard the Qintian Prison.
And just two days ago, Qin Tianjian, which was already heavily guarded, quietly added more than 3,000 Yulin Jingqi overnight.
Two generals, one in his sixtieth year and one in his prime, were wearing armor and stomach instead of the official robes of military officials. They both stood with their swords in hand and stood at the entrance of Qintian Prison, acting as two door gods.
The two men, who are one generation apart, have similar faces, like a father and son.
In fact, that's exactly what happened.
The old general was Lieutenant Li Shouguo of Shesheng School who was stationed in the northern part of Gyeonggi Province. His military achievements in the Spring and Autumn War were mediocre, but he was only a deputy lieutenant whose achievements were as big as sesame seeds and mung beans.
Therefore, five years ago, after Li Shouguo was successfully promoted step by step to Colonel Shesheng, one of the four major captains in Gyeonggi Province, he was only talked about as a joke in the official circles of the capital and the Gyeonggi military, and he was rudely given the rank of Colonel Taiping.
nickname.
This means that if Li Shouguo were in troubled times, it was doubtful whether he could become a captain based on his diarrhea ability, let alone the most powerful captain in Liyang.
In recent years, he has been really good at flattering people. He can't fight but he can be an official. It is because of his flattering skills that he can get such a hot and coveted official position.
But as Li Shouguo's eldest son Li Chang'an stood out in the army, this argument completely dissipated.
This father and son are also capable people.
In Qin Tian Prison, Xie Guanying looked at a Qi practitioner eye to eye.
Xie Guanying was dressed as a scholar. He stretched out his palms and flattened them on the soil and said with a smile, "I know that Duke Yan Sheng has left the capital. Don't worry, I will personally preside over the operation of the formation."
The Qi Master Master was about to say something when he saw Xie Guanying stood up, clapped his hands, turned around and said, "In addition to the three thousand heavy armors of the Li family and his son, there will also be three thousand imperial guards who are already on their way."
The Qi Master Grand Master was still hesitant to speak. Xie Guanying glanced at the towering arrogant building in the capital, half-smiling but not smiling: "Why, you have to tell me that His Royal Highness the King of Shu is here, so that you can really feel at ease."
Peace of mind?"
Jin Xin'an had not been called out by name in person for decades, and he looked a little confused for a moment. Jin Xin'an was the only remaining qigong master in Qintian Prison.
Xie Guanying raised his head to look at the cloudless sky and said softly, "Lu Zu once said, don't ask whether there are gods in the world, how many people have ascended in ancient and modern times. He also said that if a fire dragon subdues a tiger, it will be like a land of gods and great immortals."
Jin Xin'an chewed it carefully and felt that the mystery was mysterious, but it was of no use to him, a half-hearted monk. However, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Deputy Supervisor Jin deep in thought, his expression changing.
Xie Guanying slowly walked towards the Tongtian Tower. The King of Shu, who asked him to devote himself to assisting the left, had done something unexpected twice recently. One was to go north to Beijing, and the other was to enter the Qintian Prison.
Xie Guanying kept walking and said to Jin Xin'an, "If you still have thoughts of ascension, you must not let Li Yuxue live."...
Jin Xin'an wanted to ask again, but Xie Guanying had no intention of explaining.
At this time, in addition to Li Shouguo, there were 3,000 soldiers from Li Chang'an and his son, 100 bronze fish bag masters from the Punishment Department, and 3,000 imperial guards in the Qintian Prison, a total of 6,100 people.
They were ready for a fight to the death.
As soon as Li Changan's three thousand men arrived at Qintian Prison, they deliberately changed into heavy infantry armor. Except for the two generals Li Shouguo and Li Changan, they were all within the gate of Qintian Prison, and no one stepped out of the gate.
Putting on this large-scale armor weighing fifty kilograms means that the infantry has given up all flexibility and mobility. It should have appeared on a special battlefield where the foot resists the cavalry. With the innate weight of a single armor and stomach, supplemented by the Phalanx formation
The formation condensed into momentum to resist the impact of the cavalry charge.
However, if an army is only equipped with heavy armor, large shields, and infantry phalanxes supplemented by spears and powerful crossbows, no matter how stable they are, they will often suffer from too heavy a load.
Even if the cavalry's collision was successfully stopped, they would not be able to pursue the already defeated cavalry and could only defend their position, which would definitely not be able to expand the results of the battle.
It's just that on today's weird battlefield, three thousand people were equipped with counterintuitive equipment, but no one felt ridiculous. Even most of the soldiers in the formation wished they could wear another set of Zha armor that would suffocate them after wearing it for a long time.
Over the years, the Ministry of Punishment carefully selected the copper fish bag masters recruited from Liyang's rivers and lakes. They were divided into two groups and stood on both wings of the formation. Their positions were very particular. They were slightly spread out and tried to squeeze the Qintian Prison site while at the same time.
They can respond to each other to prevent enemies from bypassing the formation.
At the ends of both sides of the wide street outside Qintian Prison, the Yulin Cavalry has arrived.
The 3,000 cavalry troops urgently transferred from the Northern Army of Gyeonggi Province were majestic. They were far more in line with the title of the Tiger and Wolf Division than the West Base Camp of Chi Changgong, the commander of the Hu Cavalry School of the Western Army of Gyeonggi Province. They were both men and horses!
They did not rush to charge, but quietly stopped their horses at both ends of the street, watching with eager eyes!
When they had not appeared before, the sound of the horses' iron hooves hitting the street ground neatly was like thunder, which already showed part of the terrifying combat power of this cavalry army in tearing apart the enemy's formation.
This mysterious cavalry army, which has never appeared in the sight of the capital, is an elite cavalry built by General Ma Lulang who spent most of his life and huge sums of money to build it.
The garrison and troop strength are never recorded in the files of the Ministry of War, and the Liyang Household Department does not have to bear the military pay of this cavalry at all. For twenty years, military pay has been allocated directly from the Zhao family's imperial treasury to support and maintain the operation of the cavalry.
The astonishing cost.
Historically, only Gu Jiantang, the minister of the Ministry of War, was qualified to have access to the inside story. When Chen Zhibao and Lu Baijie took over the Ministry of War for a short time, they were unable to learn too many details.
We can only roughly know the growth trend of the number of this cavalry army, which gradually increased from the initial 300 cavalry to 500 cavalry, 800 cavalry, and now to the current 3,000 cavalry.
After the emperor came to the throne, the detailed strategy for Beiliang's defeat of Beimang was gradually pieced together, and illegal secret arrangements were made in both the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs.
The Ministry of War selects people and horses, and the Ministry of Accounts has to give out a huge amount of money even if it tightens its belt. It doesn't even dare to cry for poverty, and it must be clean in the account, even those households that are not involved in specific affairs must be
None of the doctors could see any clues.
However, even Lu Baijie, who had served as Minister of the Ministry of War, did not know that in addition to its unstoppable and amazing combat power, this cavalry army also had extremely special significance for the three emperors of the Liyang Zhao family.
In twenty-five years, the Cavalry Army secretly entered Beijing only three times.
The first time was when Emperor Gaozu, who established Liyang's orthodox status, personally issued a secret order, and Yang Taisui and Liu Haoshi personally led the army into the city. The second time was when Emperor Gaozu won the title of the world's best feudal lord.
The last time was the night when the late emperor Zhao Dun successfully put on the dragon robe. The army led by Yuan Benxi, half an inch tongue, marched straight into Tai'an City and surrounded the residence of Zhao Heng, who was still the prince at the time!
Therefore, this is basically a dragon-supporting army of the Liyang Dynasty.
At this moment, eight people, three small and five large, came from a distance.
