Prince Yizhong's 'national mourning' treatment is still a bit short, not to mention the high-standard three months, and even the reduced version for 27 days.
The emperor directly set a 'first seven' for him, and it was just the end of Liu Xianglian's marriage, which would not affect the original marriage plan.
When Third Sister You learned about this, she was naturally fortunate to pray to God and worship Buddha.
However, Liu Xianglian was not happy because of this. Instead, she came to the door and talked about the reason why the Huns were not destroyed.
In short, this guy just wants to follow Sun Shaozong to quell the rebellion!
It's not just him. After the news spread, Xue Pan and Feng Ziying came to the door one after another, clamoring to write and join the army - although they didn't move the pen a few times.
On the contrary, the officers and soldiers of the fourth battalion in the Beijing Middle School reacted rather coldly to this matter - if it was only self-consciousness, I am afraid that they might not be able to recruit 500 people.
It’s okay to go on an expedition with the army. Apart from wanting to compete for merit, who would be willing to take the risk of being a pawn
Fortunately, Sun Shaozong didn't need to worry too much about the ration of soldiers and horses.
The imperial court has clearly issued a decree to recruit 400 elites from the Huben battalion, 300 from each of the patrol battalion and the city defense battalion, plus the 500 soldiers and horses of the Shenji battalion, a total of 1,500 people, as the 'big army'. Pioneer 'to suppress the Wuxi barbarians.
In fact, on weekdays, even if you want to select elites, it is enough to select from one of the battalions. However, the situation in Beijing is now delicate, who would dare to break the balance indiscriminately
Helpless, I had to draw from everywhere to make such a hodgepodge.
And these soldiers and horses seem to be more than double what Sun Shaozong asked for, but how effective can the firearms battalion be in fighting in the damp forest
What's more, the Ministry of War also specially stipulated that once the cumulative battle losses exceeded 20% of the total force, this so-called vanguard force must be transferred to the local order on the spot and stationed in nearby prefectures and counties.
Obviously, the big bosses in the DPRK didn't expect that Sun Shaozong would be able to take such a few soldiers and horses to kill tens of thousands of barbarians once and for all.
The reason why he was sent to lead the army on the expedition was first of all based on the consideration of cost-effectiveness - these days, the court has no surplus food.
Secondly, he really wanted to take advantage of Sun Shaozong's bravery to give the Wuxi barbarians a slap in the face, lest the chaos spread wantonly.
The limit of the cumulative battle loss ratio is set to ensure that Sun Shaozong, after using the first three axes or encountering a minor setback, will turn the offensive on the spot and rely on the prefectures and counties to continue to curb the outward expansion of the Wuxi barbarians. .
At that time, this firearms battalion will naturally have its place.
In short, as long as the morale of the people in Huguang can be stabilized, and the imperial court is freed to send a large army to attack, or make conditions for recruiting security, Sun Shaozong's trip is worthwhile.
tsk~
This feeling of being underestimated is really unpleasant!
After figuring out these joints, Sun Shaozong felt a breath of anger in his heart - after all, we are also traversers with golden fingers, how can we infer our combat power with common sense
And as long as the combat power is beyond common sense, in these days, you can casually get involved with ghosts and gods, and use it to deal with superstitious and ignorant mountain barbarians.
As long as it is properly adjusted, it may not be a fantasy to win more with less.
Of course, everything has advantages and disadvantages.
At least Big Brother Cheap and several concubines in the house were greatly relieved after listening to these analyses.
The only person who is dissatisfied is probably only Second Sister You.
Originally, Sun Shaozong's plan was to go out to Huguang as a civil official - get some kind of official position, such as a watcher, a patrol ambassador, etc., that can act cheaply.
But at the moment, he has changed his military rank to go to war, but according to the imperial system, he cannot bring his family.
How could this not disappoint Second Sister You
On the contrary, Qingwen breathed a sigh of relief.
Less gossip.
Sun Shaozong spent several days handing over troops and horses in each battalion.
After finally getting some free time that day, Sun Shaozong sent Xue Pan and others away from the customary to come to the house to invite battle.
Xu Shouye had just been promoted to one level last month, and now he is trying to become a thousand households from the fifth rank, so Sun Shaozong simply proposed to the Ministry of War that he should be his deputy.
As for Lu Jianxing, he was appointed as the captain of the personal soldiers—of course, Sun Shaozong's personal soldiers were still in his mother's womb and needed to be selected slowly after he left Beijing.
After the three of them were seated separately, they saw that Lu Jianxing's buttocks were hanging halfway, and he seemed a little unable to let go.
Sun Shaozong smiled and said, "It's just our own people today. If you have anything to say, feel free to say it freely. As for etiquette and etiquette, it will not be too late to talk when everyone arrives at the next military meeting."
In the Dazhou system, the actual number of soldiers under the command of one hundred households is between one hundred and twenty to one hundred and eighty.
This time, there are nine people in the hundred households under Sun Shaozong's command, and Xu Shouye, who is a trial household, is exactly the number of ten.
In fact, according to the court practice, these 1,500 people should appoint a general or deputy general to command, and then assign two or three thousand households to assist.
However, since Sun Shaozong was 'demotion' this time, he could only follow his authority urgently.
And because Sun Shaozong, after all, had never really been in the army, he was afraid of making a joke in front of others, so this internal seminar was held. I hope to straighten out the thinking with Xu Shouye and Lu Jianxing first, and then formally call the generals under his command. discussion.
But he said that Xu Shouye heard that he wanted to speak freely, but he didn't hide it, and even said: "If you want me to say, the court chose you to be this vanguard officer, but you really know people - otherwise, you want to rub these arrogant soldiers in the army. In one place, it is much more laborious than letting them carry their heads and fight for their lives."
The fourth battalion in Beijing has long had grievances. Especially recently, the Shenji battalion has become an army, which has caused quite a few private fights.
They were at the feet of the emperor, and they were fighting against each other with red faces and thick necks, not to mention going to Huguang, where the emperor of Tiangao was far away
If you want to change to an ordinary person, you really may not be able to suppress these arrogant soldiers.
That is, Sun Shaozong, not only the personal martial arts champion in Beijing
, is also inextricably related to all aspects.
The patrol camp came from his old family; the Shenji camp was assigned from his eldest brother; as for the Huben camp, who didn’t know that Qiu Ying valued Sun Shaozong the most, and even gave his only son to him for training
And if these three forces are leveled out, the remaining patrol battalion will naturally be alone.
Sun Shaozong was naturally aware of these details, so he just nodded slightly and turned his attention to Lu Jianxing.
Although Xu Shouye was kind, he was inferior to Lu Jianxing in terms of ability.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong summoned the two of them this time because he actually wanted to hear Lu Jianxing's thoughts.
"grown ups."
Lu Jianxing subconsciously stood up and clasped his fists. After Sun Shaozong raised his hand, he sat back embarrassedly, and said uncomfortably: "In my humble opinion, since we are going into the mountains to suppress bandits, the morale of the army is second, and the most important thing at the moment. Yes, first find a few guides who are familiar with the local customs."
"Otherwise, no matter how brave we are, it will be difficult to perform in any mountain."
This is more nutritious than what Xu Shouye said.
However, Sun Shaozong also thought of this for a long time, and nodded immediately: "Lu Baihu's words coincide with me. When I was right in the military prelude, I asked the Ministry of War to come forward and look for a guide who is familiar with the local situation. ."
"Now the Ministry of War's writing has been expedited to Huguang for 600 miles. Presumably when we arrive with the army, the local government has already prepared to stop."
After that, the three discussed trivial matters such as the marching route, which prefecture and county to camp in Huguang and Guangxi, and where to supply supplies.
While he was talking about soldiers on paper, he suddenly saw the concierge coming in to report that there was a general flag of the Beizhen Fusi Division who was asking for an interview outside the door.
The general flag of Beizhen Fusi
Since he went to the palace to pay tribute to his filial piety two days ago, he met with Chen Xingzhi, Zhao Chiayi, and others who were in charge of punishing thousands of households. Sun Shaozong had not paid attention to the news of Beizhen Fusi for several days.
Could it be that something happened to the Beizhen Fusi...
This really does not stop people at all!
But he had already come, so he couldn't keep the door closed, so Sun Shaozong ordered the concierge to invite the man into the living room.
When that person arrived in a hurry, Sun Shaozong realized that he was still an acquaintance—that Wang Zhen who was not a eunuch, but was confused as a dragon guard.
Seeing this Wang Zhen stepped forward and knelt down on one knee, he said loudly, "Wang Zhen, the humble servant, I have seen Lord Qianhu!"
"Get up."
Sun Shaozong raised his hand and asked casually, "You came to see this official, but what does Lord Zhenfu have to explain?"
But Wang Zhen didn't get up, instead he clasped his fists and cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to your lord, I am here this time because I have no official business, but I want to invite myself to go out with the army!"
got~
Emotions are another fight!
That's right, this seems to be going through history, and it seems that he is a militant, otherwise he would not have strongly encouraged the emperor to go on a personal expedition, resulting in the change of Tumubao.
But then again, this fellow is very exciting, and his martial arts are not bad, so it won't be a hindrance if he is transferred.
Therefore, Sun Shaozong said: "Since you intend to kill thieves for the country, you can apply for a transfer order from above. Presumably, the lord of pacification will not stop your heart."
"grown ups."
Unexpectedly, Wang Zhen complained incessantly: "Three days ago, I heard that Your Excellency is going to go south to quell the rebellion, and I submitted an application for transfer order, but I waited and waited, but there was no response. Later, I searched for someone, but it turned out that Lord Zhenfu had already For several days, I haven't been to the yamen to handle official business."
Lu Hui has been out of work for several days
Could it be that after entering the palace that day, he never came back? !
Is it to deal with the follow-up of Prince Yizhong, or is he implicated and convicted
Thinking of Dai Quan's lonely look when he entered the palace that day, it seems that the possibility of the latter is much greater than that of the former.
tsk~
I don't know what the hell this Prince Yizhong has made, but he actually took the words inside and outside the palace of Fusi Palace in Beizhen to a pot!
Wouldn't it really be like his nonsense, soaring in front of the emperor in the daytime
This absurd thought flashed through his mind, but Sun Shaozong said in his mouth: "Since Lord Zhenfu is dispatched, it's fine, I will take over and ask the Ministry of War to transfer you over - it's just that the soldiers are fighting fiercely, if you just want to Mixing up the piety and wealth, but the abacus is wrong."
"Don't worry, adults!"
Wang Zhen heard the big show, patted his chest and said, "The villain just wants to follow the adults and kill those barbarians who don't know the propriety, righteousness and shame!"
This is also a radical nationalist.
Seeing that his matter has been finalized, Sun Shaozong was about to serve tea to the guests, but Zhao Zhongji came over unexpectedly, saying that Yang Licai was outside asking to see him.
ok~
Another hundred households from Beizhen Fusi came.
Wouldn't Yang Licai also come to fight
However, Sun Shaozong said, "Please come in." After a while, he saw Yang Licai hurriedly approaching. He crossed the threshold and was about to bow his hands, when he suddenly saw Wang Zhen who was half-kneeling on the ground, and looked at Wang Zhen suspiciously.
Wang Zhen hurriedly bowed to greet him.
Although Yang Licai was a little puzzled, how could his newly promoted subordinate appear in Sun Shaozong's mansion, but when he thought about the important official duties, he couldn't care too much.
He only nodded slightly to Wang Zhen, and then said to Sun Shaozong: "Master Qianhu, I have a secret official business to report to you."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Jianxing stood up first and resigned to Sun Shaozong.
Xu Shouye and Wang Zhen were half a beat slower, but they were also busy following behind.
So in the blink of an eye, only Sun Shaozong and Yang Licai were left in the hall.
It's a mess, and there are still a lot of things to discuss!
Sun Shaozong felt a little unhappy in his heart. After all, he had already put all his energy into the matter of going south to suppress the rebellion. He didn't care much about the mess of the Beizhen Fusi.
Not to mention what secrets are involved!
Thinking about Dai Quan and Lu Hui, he might have fallen into trouble. He really avoided the word 'secret'.
Therefore, without waiting for Yang Licai to speak, he said first: "You also know that this official is about to go on an expedition, and I am afraid that I will not be able to take care of the errand of Beizhen Fusi for a while - although Lord Zhenfu is not here now, Chen Qianhu wait..."
"grown ups!"
Before Sun Shaozong could finish his sentence, Yang Licai smiled bitterly: "It's not that my humble office intentionally wants to cause you trouble, it's really a big deal, and it was done by you and Lord Zhenfu. Now Lord Zhenfu hasn't shown up for several days. , naturally I can only report to you."
Did you and Lu Hui do it together
Sun Shaozong thought for a while, and immediately blurted out: "But what progress has been made in the White Lotus Sect?"
"exactly."
Yang Licai nodded and said, "Beijing and others tortured that Ge Dei for several days, and finally pried open his mouth and asked how to identify the real body of the reincarnated demon girl."
Hearing this, Sun Shaozong felt a little relieved - as long as it has nothing to do with Prince Yizhong!
Immediately, he couldn't help but be curious, and urged Yang Licai to quickly tell the method of identifying the White Lotus Saintess.
"It's actually quite simple."
Yang Licai stroked his stomach and said, "There is a plum blossom mark the size of a quail egg near the navel of the reincarnated demon girl."
Sure enough, it is identified by physical characteristics!
but…
Since she is a reincarnated saint of the White Lotus Sect, she should have a lotus birthmark to be considered authentic, right
Sun Shaozong was slandering, but a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and then his expression became uncontrollable and strange - he seemed to have seen this plum blossom birthmark near the navel on someone!
I caught a cold, I felt dizzy, and I almost didn't get out of today's weight. For full attendance, I will ask my wife to take leave tomorrow to look after the children, and I will start coding during the day. Um. . . There are too many reward lists, the author said that they can't fit in.
