Facing Cui Dunli's doubts, Gao Kan said proudly: "It's just for others to question the combat effectiveness of the Youtun Guards. Cui Shilang knows the Youtun Guards inside and out, why is there still such a group? Soldiers are more valuable than more valuable, and the Zuotun Guards are more valuable.
Although there are many people, there are many good and bad in the army, and there is usually a lack of training, and it has not been tempered by the war, and it is just a show of strength. But our Youtunwei is different. Since the commander-in-chief took charge of Youtunwei, he has implemented reorganization and reorganized the government.
The military system is a recruiting system, so the tactics of the army are innovated. Daily drills are carried out without interruption. The whole army will be trained every ten days. After the whole army is equipped with firearms, it is even more diligent in training, rain or shine, not to mention the whole army.
He is the old brother who followed the commander-in-chief on the White Road and swept through Mobei... The general can put Xiang Shang's head here. If Zuo Tunwei really conspires against evil and intends to capture Xuanwu Gate, his entire army will be wiped out!"
These words were categorical and resounding.
Not only Gao Kan, but also the Youtun Guards have always been proud. Except for the left and right military guards and a few other armies that have fought in the north and south in recent years, they don't pay attention to the other sixteen guards at all. Especially the Zuotun Guards, who are both good and bad.
, the "rabble" who lack training are simply ignored.
Back then, when the troops came out of Baidao and marched across Mobei, they were able to defeat even Xue Yantuo's cavalry in a single battle. They were chased down like rabbits all over the mountains and plains, not to mention the mere Zuotun Guards?
Cui Dunli knew that Gao Kan had a calm and resolute temperament. If he had not been completely sure in his heart, he would never have been so rash, so he nodded and said: "Xuanwu Gate is the gateway to Taiji Palace, and there is no room for failure! As long as Xuanwu Gate is there, Taiji Palace will be impregnable, no matter what happens again."
Even with twice the number of rebels, there is no way they can capture Zhuque, Hanguang, and install other city gates. Therefore, once the general discovers that someone intends to attack Xuanwu Gate, he can immediately defeat the enemy without reporting or waiting for orders to ensure the safety of Xuanwu Gate.
."
"Here!"
Gao Kan responded in a deep voice.
In fact, this order does not comply with military regulations. Xuanwu Gate is the entrance to the Forbidden Palace, and it cannot be taken too seriously. Therefore, the troops stationed at Xuanwu Gate are strictly prohibited from making any changes without an imperial edict, even if the enemy is caught in front of them.
, it is also necessary to report in time, and only after receiving the holy edict can we fight back.
If troops are mobilized privately without reporting, even if it is later proven necessary and victory is achieved, they will still be held accountable.
But Gao Kan agreed without hesitation, which shows his trust in Cui Dunli.
Cui Dunli patted Gao Kan's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, even though this behavior violates military orders, we are in the middle of the court and have the trust of His Highness, so no one can hold us accountable."
In extraordinary times, nature does extraordinary things.
If there are rebels coming to attack Xuanwu Gate, they can organize an army to defend themselves while marching to the palace to wait for orders to be issued. However, if the Zuo Tun Guards suddenly attack, they will have no time to wait for orders from the palace. The two armies are adjacent, and Zuo Tun Guards
The guards are even more powerful with strong soldiers and horses. Once Chai Zhewei is determined to attack Xuanwu Gate, he will be fully prepared to strike with thunder. By the time the palace hears the news and makes a decision, the Youtun Guards may have been completely annihilated and Xuanwu Gate will be lost.
…
Gao Kan nodded repeatedly and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Minister Cui. When the country is in turmoil, what does personal merit, crime, honor and disgrace count? Please inform His Highness the Ming Prince, as long as the last general is not dead, as long as there is only one soldier left in the Youtun Guard.
, Xuanwu Gate will never be lost!"
"good!"
Cui Dun praised him, straightened his clothes, bowed his hands to the ground, and said with emotion: "The important land of Xuanwu Gate is entrusted to the general!"
At present, the Sixth Army of the East Palace is resisting the rebels within the imperial city, and it is impossible to divide the troops to help defend Xuanwu Gate. Therefore, the right guards must not only deal with the left guards who are highly likely to rebel, but even if they win, they must continue to fight against the incoming troops.
It is really difficult for the rebels to garrison on the right with their strength.
It is conceivable how much pressure Youtunwei will face and what heavy losses they will suffer...
Gao Kan performed a military salute and said loudly: "It is your duty, even if you die, you will not give up!"
The two greeted each other with a feeling of mutual sympathy, and then Cui Dunli stopped staying: "I want to rush back to the palace to report to the prince, so I will leave first. General, you must take care of yourself. When the rebels are wiped out and the world is cleansed, you will be with me."
Have a drink!"
The two said goodbye reluctantly.
Watching Cui Dunli's figure disappear in the direction of Xuanwu Gate, Gao Kan looked up at the heavy snow falling in the sky, and then strode back to the military camp with his soldiers.
"Notify, all the captains and brigade commanders will immediately mobilize their soldiers and prepare to stand ready! At the same time, all the scouts in the general will be sent out to keep an eye on the Zuotun guards for me. If there is a slightest sign of trouble, I will know it immediately!
Not only that, within a radius of thirty miles outside Xuanwu Gate, even if a wild dog runs past, you have to know it like the back of your hand."
"Here!"
"The armory is opened, armor and weapons, weapons and firearms are distributed, and the entire army is ready for war!"
"Here!"
…
A series of orders were issued, and the entire Youtunwei barracks suddenly woke up from the silence, and then the crowds were loud and the morale was high. Groups of soldiers ran out of the barracks to assemble on the school field, and then lined up in order to collect the ordnance from the armory.
Armor, weapons and firearms.
More than a hundred scouts, either on horseback or on foot, spread out from the military camp, such as Xuanwu Gate and Zuotunwei Camp in the near distance, Fanglin Gate, Jingyao Gate, and Danfeng Gate in the distance, reaching the Weishui River in the north, and the Weishui River in the west.
From Yong'an Canal to Longshouyuan in the east, everything is under their surveillance. Even if the wind and snow are raging, and the night is dark and cold, they will not let go of any clues. Even if a person suddenly appears in this area, they will be the first to do so.
Time feedback comes to Gao Kan.
The 20,000 people in the entire Youtun Guards may not seem to be many, but at this moment, they are running like a sophisticated war machine, more like a sleeping tiger showing its fangs, just waiting for the opportunity to move and choose people to eat!
At this moment, the two military camps outside Xuanwu Gate were stringing their bows, unsheathing their swords, and drawing swords. A battle was about to break out!
*****
In the snowy sky, the magnificent and luxurious Jin Prince's Palace was extremely quiet. The guards in the palace were on duty at the beginning of the night, staring at the rebels rushing outside the palace like a tide. Fortunately, this mutiny was planned by the Guanlong clan.
The ultimate goal was to depose the prince and force the king of Jin to take the throne, so no soldiers came to harass the king of Jin's palace.
In this case, the whole family is as if they are facing a formidable enemy and is ready to prepare. If those faint-headed soldiers rush into the palace, it will be a huge event...
Jin Wang Li Zhi sat in his study, dejected and sighing.
The Princess of Jin, Wang Shi, sat beside her and asked curiously: "The purpose of these military admonitions by the Guanlong families is to help His Highness secure his position and compete for the crown prince. It is naturally a great thing. Why is Your Highness so worried and agitated? Shouldn't it be?
Are you happy?"
"I'm so happy!"
Li Zhi couldn't help but uttered a curse word, patted the coffee table next to him, and said angrily: "What's worth being happy about? Disaster is about to happen! It's really a woman's opinion!"
Princess Jin became more and more puzzled: "This military remonstrance is a conspiracy of Guanlong families and has nothing to do with His Highness. If it succeeds, His Highness will naturally be promoted as the crown prince. Wouldn't it be wonderful if his long-cherished wish can be fulfilled in one day? Even if it fails,
Those are just the crimes of the Guanlong families and have nothing to do with His Highness. Naturally, we can move forward and retreat freely and get the best of both worlds."
The King of Jin has been eyeing the position of the kings for a long time, but he always falls short of his wish. Now that he has such a good opportunity, but he looks so worried, it really makes her confused.
Li Zhi, however, had no intention of explaining to her. He still sat there sighing and feeling miserable.
Princess Jin was still waiting to say anything more when she suddenly saw an internal attendant walking in quickly from outside. She paused at the door. When she saw that only Prince Jin and his wife were alone in the study, she stepped forward and said respectfully: "Your Highness, Mr. Zhao Guo."
Asking to see you outside the door."
"who?"
Princess Jin's beautiful eyes widened and she spoke in surprise.
Isn't Changsun Wuji accompanying His Majesty on the eastern expedition to Goguryeo and currently in Liaodong? Although I heard that the war in Liaodong has ended and the army is returning, Liaodong is thousands of miles away from Chang'an and the return of the army is still far away. How could Duke Zhao come here?
However, after asking in surprise, Princess Jin also realized that the reason why Changsun Wuji returned to Chang'an so quickly must be related to this military remonstrance. Moreover, at the critical moment of the mutiny, he came to visit the Prince of Jin's residence. His intention was almost self-evident.
…
He immediately became excited, his beautiful cheeks turned slightly red, he grabbed Li Zhi's arm and said tremblingly: "Your Highness, why don't you summon Zhao Guogong quickly..."
That is the position of crown prince, heir to the empire!
As long as the King of Jin sits on the throne of the crown prince, he will be the crown princess. If the King of Jin ascends the throne and becomes the emperor in the future, then he will be the mother of the world and achieve the highest achievement of a woman in the world...
