Outside Kaifeng Mansion, at the foot of the mountain.
He held a telescope with a high handle and looked into the mountains. After more than a month of fighting, there were not many thieves up there for training.
Especially the small group of Jurchen Tatars, which have not put up any outstanding resistance recently. If there are only some hungry and skinny servants left, they will have no effect in training troops at all. The 50,000 elite tiger soldiers under his command are just
No need to waste any more time here.
The mountain fog in the early morning was dispersed by the sun early. In the main camp of the Forbidden Army in Beijing, the Forbidden Army who had just buried pots and made rice were doing morning exercises.
"First take the twelve prefectures of Shanxi, and other elements will attack the Yatou. Looking back, the Qin fortress is as low as a horse, and gradually we can see that the Yellow River flows straight north.
The power of heaven rolls over the earth and crosses the Yellow River, and the Qiang people from thousands of miles away sing the songs of the Han Dynasty. Mo Yan crosses the mountains and rivers flow backwards, going from Jiaoxi to the west to make waves.
The horse-tailed huqin accompanies the Han chariot, and the music sounds like a self-pity Chanyu. Don’t bend your bow to shoot at the geese in the clouds. The returning geese now don’t remember the book.”
The loud voice sounded, which was a widely circulated victory song in the Song Dynasty army. Looking at the entire history of the Song Dynasty, this group of soldiers was also unique.
They are no longer made up of criminals and lowlifes, but a group of true elites, strong, brave and literate.
The high military pay and strict selection made them look envious wherever they went. Pride filled their strong bodies and every heroic expression.
The appearance and bones of this army are unparalleled in the world. They are the forerunners of Yang Lin's reform of the military system, and they will replace the imperial military system with too many people in the future.
Gao Bing looked around and said to the soldiers around him: "Blow the drum to summon the generals, attack today, completely wipe out the remaining evil, and then return to the court with our troops."
After a month of non-stop attacks day and night, the ragtag group on the top of the mountain, composed of former Imperial Army generals, gentry slaves, Jurchen soldiers and Qiangliang bandits, was on the verge of collapse.
Listening to the shouting and urging songs again from the bottom of the mountain, they all lay lazily on the ground, unable to muster the energy to look down.
Suddenly, a trumpet sounded louder than usual, drums beat loudly, and the shouts of killing shook the heaven and the earth.
The bandits, who looked as if their bones had been ripped out, stood up. There was already a black sky below. The red tassels on the heads of the black crowd gathered into a sea of fire. The Song army was finally going to attack with all its troops.
.
The bandit coalition, however, seemed to be relieved, and breathed a long sigh of relief. If they continue to waste away people and ghosts, they might as well die happily. In the past few days, even the bark of the trees has been gnawed away, and they have been attacked by various long-range weapons from time to time.
During the attack, it was roasted by fire on a hot day. There was already a lack of water on the top of the mountain, and the whole place was dry.
As expected by Gao Bing, the remnants of the enemy above had lost their ability to resist. The army plowed through the courtyard and swept the caves, and the wind and the remaining clouds swept away the thieves who had brought trouble to Kaifeng Mansion.
Seeing that the prisoners who were not humanoid were being escorted down one by one, Gao Bing lost the mood to show off his force. He ordered someone to send the group to the city first, and the army marched into Bianliang at night.
Wu Lin, who took out a new suit of armor and was about to alarm Bianliang, was stunned when he heard this and asked in confusion: "Commander, what does this mean?"
Gao Bian chuckled lightly, without explaining, and returned to the tent to instruct his soldiers to pack their things.
Song Gongming was a confidant of Shao Zai. He failed last time and returned. If he showed off in a big way, wouldn't it be a slap in his face?
At a young age, he is already the commander-in-chief of the palace, and his honor as a minister is already great, so there is no need to cause trouble again.
Gao Yanei seems to be frivolous, but in fact he is the most tactful, otherwise he would not be able to thrive in Khitan and conquer the Three Prefectures of Youyan without a fight.
Wu Lin scratched his head and couldn't think of the reason. His temperament was to go forward without hesitation, but he was very determined and lacked sophistication. How can a young man know what it means to be restrained and calm?
If you don't want such an opportunity to be in the limelight, wouldn't it be that you are walking in brocade clothes at night, which makes people very depressed? Wu Lin shook his head and sighed. A soldier beside him stretched his head and said: "This palace commander is so low-key, isn't it that he is giving up the scenery?
, people say that you and Liu Qi are the two heroes of the Forbidden Army, and he is very popular in Jiangnan. This time, we can be compared."
Wu Lin kicked him in the butt and cursed: "What you said is just like farting. Liu Qi just killed some wealthy gentry and domestic slaves. When I was following the young master to beat the Jurchen Tatars in Youyan, he also
I was listening to a ditty in the brothel of Kaifeng Prefecture. I think about what the scene was like outside Yizhou Prefecture. There were corpses everywhere and blood flowing..."
At this time, a fast horse galloped up. Wu Lin saw clearly that it was He Tao, the personal guard in front of the young master. He stopped bragging to the soldiers and asked with a smile: "Old He, what are you doing in the camp?"
?”
When He Tao saw him, his face lit up, he dismounted and said, "General Xiao Wu, I was coming to find you, and your transfer order has been sent."
Wu Lin frowned and said: "Transfer order? I'm doing just fine with the imperial army in the capital camp, so why do I need a transfer order?"
He reluctantly unfolded the order, his eyes slowly glowed, and after closing them, he laughed and said, "My opportunity has come, Wu Lin!"
Stepping into Gao Bing's tent, Wu Lin said excitedly: "Commander, the Young Master asked me to go to Fuzhou to form the Nanhai Navy."
He raised his eyebrows, hugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "You are in charge of an army alone. The young master values you very much. Don't let us lose our reputation. The people in that place are unfamiliar, and there are not many familiar people."
Brother, how can you establish your authority and convince the public?
I will open a convenient door for you and allow you to choose a hundred soldiers from the camp to go with you."
Wu Lin was overjoyed. This was a great friendship. You should know that every one of the Imperial Guards in Beijing was a treasure.
"This...the imperial court..."
Gao Bing smiled solemnly and said: "I will go and explain to the young master, and he will give me this face."
Among Yang Lin, Gao Bing is the most respectable person. This is something everyone in Bianliang knows.
Wu Lin's eyebrows were filled with joy, and she clasped her fists and said, "I cannot thank you enough for your kindness, Commander-in-Chief. I will treat you to a drink when you come back to Bianliang." After saying that, he jumped out with a whoosh.
Gao Bing looked at his back, his eyes wandering and his mind wandering.
"Navigation of the South China Sea? Every time Shaozai talks, he obviously puts the focus on the north. The Jurchens are still in serious danger, so why should they meet the navy of the South China Sea again?" Gao Yanei shook his head and stopped thinking about these things.
Young Zai will never act recklessly when it comes to matters in his heart.
A soldier came in from outside, took a look, came to Gao Bian's side, clasped his fists and said: "Commander, among the prisoners captured, a group of Jiaozhi barbarians were found during interrogation."
Just now I was thinking about the Nanhai Navy, but they actually captured the Jiaozhi people in Kaifeng Mansion. Gao Bing couldn't help but be more cautious and said: "Separate them and escort them to Bianliang alone. The Shao Zai wants to attack Jiaozhi. These days
I don’t know if it might be of any use to me personally.”
