Chapter 49: The position of the marshal

(First update yesterday at 12 noon!)

In the Tang Dynasty, when large armies went out for battle, especially during the reign of Li Longji, the prince would be appointed as the marshal of the army and the supreme commander of the armies.

But this is mostly just a false title. Under normal circumstances, the prince does not lead the army on an expedition. The court will appoint the prince as the marshal and at the same time appoint a general who is good at fighting as the deputy marshal to control the armies. The deputy marshal will actually command the war.

Just like Gao Xianzhi and Ge Shuhan some time ago.

When Gao Xianzhi went on an expedition, he appointed Prince Rong Li Wan as the marshal and Gao Xianzhi as the deputy marshal. Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing were killed, and the court appointed Ge Shuhan as the deputy marshal, and the prince Li Heng served as the marshal, but Li Heng also left.

After taking office, all matters were handed over to Ge Shuhan.

However, when the generals of the army are addressed, they will hide their names and directly address them as marshal.

This deputy marshal can be said to be an actual marshal. He has great power and can command any army on the same battlefield, as long as the other party does not hold the position of marshal or deputy marshal. After Ge Shuhan went to Tongguan, he took control of everything near Tongguan.

More than 200,000 men and horses were so majestic! Even Yang Guozhong was very afraid, so he organized three thousand elites from Li Fufu and Liu Guangting, and asked his confidant Du Qianyuan to lead more than 10,000 men and horses to garrison in Bashang, in order to guard against Ge Shuhan.

The possible threat was that Du Qianyuan's more than 10,000 people were eventually annexed by Ge Shuhan.

If Yang Xi can be appointed by the imperial court as the deputy marshal of troops and horses, and as a marshal, he can control the troops and direct the defense of Tongguan, then from now on, he will no longer have to worry about the threat of military generals to the Yang family. Yang Xi arrived at

After Tongguan, he performed very well, temporarily frightening the generals, and basically achieved unified dispatch and command of the Tongguan armies. Yang Guozhong was also full of confidence in his son's future performance.

However, after Chen Xuanli goes to Tongguan, the situation may change immediately, and Yang Xi may not be marginalized. After all, Chen Xuanli is still quite prestigious. Many of the tens of thousands of commanders and generals who will follow are Chen Xuanli's cronies.

Unless Yang Xi gets the title of Marshal from the imperial court, he may not be able to command Chen Xuanli.

Of course Yang Guozhong knew this, so when he entered the palace today, he wanted to seek the position of deputy marshal for Yang Xi.

However, he knew that he was a bit too loud, so before reporting, he greeted the four Yang Yuhuan sisters and prepared to ask the four Yang sisters to speak kind words in front of Li Longji if he refused.

The emperor agreed to his request.

But what reassured Yang Guozhong and Yang Yuhuan was that Li Longji immediately agreed, "Well! This is a good idea. The post of deputy marshal Ge Shuhan has been dismissed. Someone should be given the post to supervise the army! I am loyal to the country.

I agree to your request and grant Yang Xi the post of deputy marshal of troops and horses to control the troops at Tongguan!"

After Li Longji made his decision, he thought for a moment and then said: "Then let Chen Xuanli be the military envoy of Tongguan to assist Si Lang in handling military affairs. All matters will be respected by Yang Xi! Then Si Lang will be given the post of General Youlong Wuwei.

! Come and convey my decree to Tongguan immediately!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Yang Guozhong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bowed his thanks.

He didn't expect that the emperor would agree to his request so easily. He originally wanted to persuade him earnestly, and he also planned to ask the four sisters of Yang Yuhuan to persuade the emperor to agree to his request and grant Yang Xi the position of deputy marshal of troops and horses.

, save the armies at Tongguan!

The emperor agreed so simply, and no help from the Yang Yuhuan sisters was needed.

Moreover, after the emperor made the decision, he immediately sent someone to convey the will, and all Yang Guozhong's worries were eliminated.

After Yang Xi went to Tongguan, Yang Guozhong was very worried that his son could not command the Tongguan generals. After all, Yang Xi was young and had almost no qualifications. Just being a Tongguan military envoy and a sword awarded by the emperor may not necessarily make people respect him. Moreover,

Chen Xuanli led the follow-up troops to Tongguan. Yang Guozhong was very afraid that after Chen Xuanli arrived at Tongguan, he would not listen to Yang Xi's orders, and even wanted to turn his back on the guests and take charge of Tongguan's military affairs with the strength of his troops!

Now this worry can be basically eliminated. The position of military envoy is much different from that of marshal. The imperial court awarded Yang Xi the position of deputy marshal leading the army, and also added the position of general Youlong Wuwei. That brother Shu Han and Chen Xuanli did not want to

If you want to rebel, you can only obey Yang Xi's orders.

Seeing that Yang Guozhong's wish came true, Yang Yuhuan also breathed a sigh of relief. While continuing to beat Li Longji's back, he said softly: "Your Majesty, I think your decision must be correct! Your Majesty knows people like a torch, so

In a critical situation, he dared to appoint Shiro as the Tongguan Army Envoy to lead the army to rescue, and achieved the expected results. Now he appoints Shiro as the Tongguan Army Marshal to control the generals. Shiro will definitely repay His Majesty's trust with continuous victories.

And important! His Majesty has been responsible for the military affairs at the front these days and has not had a good night's sleep. This has worried my concubines and many of my beloved ministers. Now that everything has been explained, your Majesty can just have a good night's sleep.

Bar!"

He said with a look of pity.

Although Yang Yuhuan is quite old and has been frightened by the war front and other things these days, he has not slept well for several nights and has to personally take care of Li Longji, who has trouble sleeping. He is a little haggard, but he still cannot hide it.

She has a beautiful and fragrant appearance. Coupled with the hot weather, she wears very little, and it is difficult to hide her plump figure. Most of her white and tender skin and turbulent chest are exposed, which is very eye-catching. All her thoughts have been on her these days.

In Tongguan, Yang Guozhong, who had fallen on Yang Xi, couldn't help but take a few more glances, and even faintly moved his Adam's apple.

However, his physical function has almost declined, and he has not had a good rest these days, which has made his physical condition even worse. The plump and attractive figure in front of him can no longer arouse the sexual interest of many men. Faced with all the scenery

They all turned a blind eye. He just patted Yang Yuhuan's hand that was rubbing his back, smiled and said: "Yuhuan, I hope everything goes well as you said, so that I don't have to worry about Tongguan's military affairs anymore! I'm responsible for these days.

I can't sleep well. I really hope that all the news coming from Tongguan is good news and there won't be any more urgent reports for help!"

"Your Majesty, just have a good rest. The military minister in Tongguan will personally care about it. The news coming from Tongguan will be understood and solved as soon as possible. Your Majesty, just have a good rest. As long as the minister is here, don't worry, and don't be too much.

Don't worry, take care of your health!" Yang Guozhong said these words, which sounded a bit excessive to others, but Li Longji felt that they were very considerate, and then said confidently: "Your Majesty, I also believe that Shiro will give you
