At about o'clock in the morning on the seventh day of the sixth month of the first year of Jianxing of the Great Zhou Dynasty, 120,000 soldiers of the Luoyan Army, horse and infantry, swore in the Beicheng Campus to fight. The wind was high and the clouds were clear, and the sun was shining brightly. Emperor Guo Kun and almost all the ministers in the court were present. The scene was unprecedentedly lively.
It is said to be a swearing-in ceremony for 120,000 troops, but in fact, more than 200,000 people participated in the review, and 80,000 people were logistics support personnel composed of ordinary people in the city. Some of these people voluntarily served the Luoyan Army, and some were
Employed to serve the army for a fee. Nearly 8,000 vehicles of various colors filled with supplies and equipment, covered with straw curtains, were neatly arranged behind the army. The vehicles were loaded with supplies accompanying the army.
Some of these carts are large flatbed trucks pulled by mules, while others are flat carts with two wheels that can be pushed by one person. In short, just like when the Luoyan Army came out to fight in Funiu Mountain, the Luoyan Army ensured a small number of soldiers.
Most of the horses are purely combat troops. The transportation of logistical supplies, food and fodder and accompanying the army are left to the common people. Only a small number of soldiers and horses are needed to escort them.
At the swearing-in meeting, Guo Kun gave some encouragement and mobilization, and he was impassioned and eloquent. However, the Luoyan Army generals and the people obviously had little interest in him, and his speech only received polite responses. But when Lin Jue came
When we arrived at the stage, the scene was completely different. The sound of shouting for Marshal Lin was deafening, and many people burst into tears when they saw Lin Jue. Needless to say, the officers and soldiers of the Luoyan Army had always been Lin Jue.
God in the eyes of the people. For the common people, Lin Jue has also become their idol.
The experience of Lin Jue has been spreading in the city for a long time, and some things about Lin Jue's past have been revealed. Even the wives, concubines, and children of Lin Jue's family have become a topic of discussion. There is no way, the people of the capital still continue their behavior.
According to tradition, when life became a little more stable, they began to be interested in court affairs and the gossip of officials in the court. Unlike other state capitals, they only cared about the gossip of the city and the secrets of the brothel. Lin Jue's legendary experience was like cheating.
Life is worth marveling at, and this is their perfect talking point.
Of course, the more this happens, the angrier Guo Kun becomes. In fact, this was the situation before. In Luoyan Valley and in the Luoyan Army, he is actually a marginalized figure. People also maintain a basic respect for him, but
But it was definitely not respect from the bottom of his heart. Guo Kun also recognized it. After all, Luoyan Valley in Funiu Mountain was Lin Jue's territory, and the Luoyan Army was Lin Jue's soldiers. It was reasonable for them to be like this. Although they were unhappy, they
But he was not too angry and disappointed. However, when he arrived in the capital, this was no longer Funiu Mountain and Luoyan Valley. Now even the people in the capital treated him so perfunctorily and respected Lin Jue so much. This shows that Lin Jue is in the capital.
Zhou's reputation was already much higher than his own. This was of course infuriating. The people had even forgotten that he, the emperor, was on the stage. Shouldn't their actions of kneeling down and kowtowing with tears streaming down their faces, beating their chests and stamping their feet and shouting hoarsely, just for themselves?
In their minds, the emperor of Zhou Dynasty was actually Lin Jue.
Guo Kun's heart was about to explode with anger, but there was a smile on his face. He knew that a little impatience would ruin a big plan. Now that we have reached the last critical step, it is a piece of shit.
You have to eat it, and eat it with a smile. Because Lin Jue and the others are about to leave the capital. Once they leave, the capital will be their own. Everything has been arranged, and everything is ready for them to leave today.
.
When the sound of the roaring mountains and tsunami stopped, Lin Jue walked slowly to the front of the stage, stared at the countless ant-like heads below, and said loudly: "Fellow soldiers, fellow villagers, today we are here to swear an oath to serve as General Jurchens."
After driving out my great Zhou Dynasty, we will embark on the journey again. At this moment, I am very excited. My great Zhou Dynasty has gone through many hardships in recent years, the country is in turmoil, internal and external troubles have emerged one after another. Our people are suffering, and our people are suffering.
Rivers and mountains have been trampled, and our wives and children are in tears. What a beautiful and peace-loving country I am, but it is devastated and disasters continue. In the past three years, to be precise, during the more than three years since Guo Xu usurped the throne, my entire country has been devastated.
The Great Zhou Dynasty is like a curse, with disasters and disasters happening one after another. Recently, the Zhengshitang made a rough statistics. In the past three years of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the number of troops and people who died in war and famine was as high as more than five million.
More than five million living lives have all disappeared in these three years. More than five million corpses are enough to fill the entire Bianhe River. Fill the entire Northwest Lake. Think about it, how tragic that is.
The tragic deaths of more than five million Zhou soldiers and civilians caused millions of families to suffer tremendous sorrow, and tens of millions of people suffered from the loss of their loved ones. Including the emperor, including me, Lin Jue, our family
Some close relatives also died. As far as I know, of the 200,000 households in the capital, almost every family had someone die in these three years or so. This is a catastrophe in the world, a huge disaster that almost destroyed the world.
It’s my big week.”
The crowd was silent, and the officers and soldiers of the Luoyan Army were solemn. They thought of their dead comrades and brothers. Since the Luoyan Army went out, tens of thousands of soldiers had died in battles, and the brothers who had been together day and night had disappeared forever. Although the imperial court built a building in the city
The emperor and Marshal Lin personally paid homage to the monument to commemorate the heroic spirit, but the deceased will never come back. The common people were also silent, and some shed tears silently. Most of these common people were common people in the capital, and they all lived in their homes.
Some people died in this catastrophe of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and their pain and grief were aroused.
Lin Jue continued: "...Some people say that all this is a natural disaster and a punishment from God. It punishes the people of Zhou Dynasty for their immorality and disrespect for the world. This is completely nonsense. Everyone has thought about it.
In the good days, I work hard all day long, use my own sweat to create wealth, and use my own money to enjoy life. What's wrong with this? This is a matter of course. But some people, who like to relax and dislike work, can't live a good life, covet me.
They wanted to rob the rich people of the Zhou Dynasty. These people are the culprits and the ones who deserve to be punished by heaven. Yes, they are those people, the barbarian tribes in the north, those ferocious and cruel people who drink blood like hair and drink blood and are not yet civilized.
Barbarians. They only know how to rob and destroy, and they will always make a living by robbing others and occupying other people's property. They don't care about other people's feelings, and don't know what awe and respect are. The source of these disasters is other than some internal problems in our great Zhou Dynasty.
In addition, it is because of the savagery of these barbarian evil tribes
It is caused by an inflated heart and a tendency to loot. We, the Great Zhou Dynasty, naturally have to solve our own internal problems, but the first thing we have to solve now is these barbarian evil tribes that have brought us disasters. Because they are still entrenched in our land, the Great Zhou Dynasty.
On top of that, the division is still struggling to the death and trying to make a comeback. Millions of people in the north are still suffering under their iron heel. There are also millions of displaced people whose homes have been occupied and it is difficult to return to their homeland. You said, we
Can you just sit back and ignore it?”
"No!" Hundreds of thousands of soldiers roared loudly.
"So, what should we do?" Lin Jue asked loudly.
"Kill them all and drive them away." The 120,000 soldiers of the Luoyan Army waved their fists and let out a deafening roar.
"Well said! There is no reason to argue with the barbarians. The barbarians are afraid of force and have no morals. They can only use the weapons in their hands to beat them to pieces, break their bones, cut their throats, and beat them like bereaved dogs with their tails between their legs.
Flee back to the barren mountains and ridges, and then they will know how to fear me, the Great Zhou Dynasty. I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, were too kind and tolerant before and indulged their ambitions. From now on, when treating these barbarians, they cannot treat them as human beings.
Look. Remember, this time, I will not discuss military merits with other things. What I want is the head of the Jurchens. The head of a Jurchen deserves a share of the credit. I want you not only to defeat them, but also to cut them off.
Show off your head to me to ask for merit. I don’t want the kindness of a woman. I will throw your compassion and compassion out of the sky. Because what you are facing is not a human being, but a wild beast, an evil wolf and tiger.
Leopard, being kind to them is stupidity. Do you all understand?" Lin Jue shouted loudly.
"I understand!" The officers and soldiers of the Luoyan Army gritted their teeth and roared with ferocious expressions.
The dozens of civil servants standing behind Lin Jue turned pale. They had never heard such mobilization words. The weak Prime Minister Lin actually said such words and asked his soldiers to cut off the enemy.
Show off your head and make them no longer have any compassion. Mr. Lin is also a scholar, how can he be so barbaric and cruel?
Guo Kun was restless among the crowd. He watched helplessly as Lin Jue aroused the emotions of the originally peaceful Luoyan Army soldiers, turning them from ordinary soldiers into violent and bloodthirsty beasts. Guo Kun was actually not surprised at all.
, this is Lin Jue, this is his pre-war mobilization. He has the ability to mobilize everyone's emotions and turn them from modest gentlemen into bloodthirsty villains. This is the real mobilization. In comparison, he
Those impassioned speeches from before were simply inferior.
"Okay! Every wrong has its head, every debt has its owner. Everything has its retribution. Every cause must have its consequences, and the Jurchens' retribution is us. They will soon regret it, but there is no regret medicine in the world. All officers and men listen to the order,
Move out immediately, attack the enemy directly, and drink this wine together. If you don't win, you won't return it!"
Lin Jue picked up the bowl of wine handed to him by the guards next to him and raised it high. Hundreds of thousands of famous military generals picked up the wine bowls prepared by them. Lin Jue drank the wine in one gulp, and everyone drank it too.
There was a loud bang of ping-ping-pong-pong, and the wine bowl was smashed under the feet. The horn sounded, and with the sound of men neighing and horses shouting, the army officially set off.
