"The drum has stopped!" Su Ce muttered, checked the armor on his body, and took out an order to supervise the country from his arms. There were two seals on the light yellow silk cloth. One was the prince's supervision order. Order, and the other is the national seal of Daqian.
Su Ce folded the prison order into his arms and walked out of the yard. At this time, two thousand brigade soldiers stood solemnly on the street of Yonghefang, and more than two thousand people made no sound.
"Eat!" the commander on duty shouted, and all the brigades and soldiers sat on the ground without speaking. More than a hundred auxiliary soldiers in the army distributed two cloth bags to each brigades and soldiers.
The Luben army began to eat one after another, but there was only the sound of chewing and no one spoke.
Orders are prohibited, because disobedience means that the general's orders cannot be implemented, which means that one's own mistakes need to be offset by casualties from his colleagues.
Wherever the sword strikes, my glory
Su Ce didn't say anything, but sat on the steps, holding a large piece of cake and munching on it.
After eating, everyone did not leave, but sat quietly with their eyes closed and meditative.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The drums from the Drum Tower sounded!
Su Ce, who was counting the time, opened his eyes, and it was midnight!
He opened the nail plate on Tushita's face and threw a copper pipe into his mouth.
"Beep beep beep..." A rapid copper whistle sounded.
Lu Benjun, who was sitting there resting with two people resting back to back, got up one after another, and organized their troops when the copper whistle stopped.
Su Ce stood up straight, took out the horizontal knife from his waist, and pointed it diagonally forward.
As the gold-stacked horizontal sword blade shone with a dazzling red-gold light under the torch, groups of hundreds of brigade soldiers passed by Su Ce.
The two thousand brigade of Ben troops tonight are the most powerful of all the armies in Chang'an, because the Supervisory Order has given them the highest authority.
As soon as Lu Ben comes out, a thousand armies can easily be mobilized!
The scraping of armor, the salute of hammering on the chest, the neat steps, and the silent walking.
There is an army in Da Qi, named Hu Ben, which means the skeleton of a warrior. If it is like a tiger and a beast, it is said to be fierce. The orphans in the army and the descendants of the generals were gathered into one army, named Huben Army, and Colonel Huben was appointed as the military commander. .The Huben Army is not controlled by anyone, and is only under the authority of the Emperor!
When the Qian Dynasty invaded the Qi system, Taizu felt that the country was ashamed of the Yin family, so he did not install tigers and beniars in memory of the great Qi Dynasty. Later, he became the Duke of Qi in the Qian Dynasty.
So Taizu set up Luben in the East Palace. Although Luben was a government soldier, the selection was more stringent than that of Zhechongfu. The orphans in the army and the descendants of various generals and the sons of good families in the capital were unified into one army, named Luben Army. !
There is a cub to accompany the prince, but after hundreds of years, the name of the cub has been mentioned by few people now. Prince Zhao Zaicheng intended to restore the prestige of Luben. With the connivance of the saint, he went on a personal expedition last year, but it was just Jiu Hu. The man and the Russians ran away, and Luben lost the chance to clear his name.
Therefore, the Yulin Army, which was supposed to be the main force this time, became the Luben Army under the prince's efforts.
But no matter how well you say it, it's better to get things done.
Seeing the Lu Ben army passing by before him, Su Ce and Yourong Yan were able to reshape the soul of an army.
The Peony guards at the gate of the square opened the gate and watched Lu Benjun leave. Four or five miles away, as he got closer and closer to Yongpingfang, an increasingly murderous aura filled the air on Lu Benjun.
There was still a tough battle ahead of them. When the last group of brigade soldiers left, Su Ce led a group of war horses from the courtyard, got on his horse, and came from behind.
He arrived at the Xifang Gate of Yongpingfang earlier than the Luben Army.
The Jinwu Guards at the Fangmen looked at a horse running towards them in the darkness, rubbed their eyes, and walked quickly to the watchtower above the Fangmen. When they thought of the team leader who had been drinking with the housekeeper of the Dai Mansion this afternoon, he was still drunk at the moment.
Jinwu Guardsman felt that things were difficult to handle.
Looking at the azure blue armor on the person who came, although the face could not be seen under the armor, the fine armor could not be faked.
"Just wait and keep an eye on me. I'll call the captain!" Jin Wu, the leader of the guards, ordered his men and walked into the archery tower behind him.
"Team Guo, someone is knocking on the door!" The Jinwu Guards who were on duty rushed into the archery tower and woke up their own team members.
"Well, please let me sleep for a while." Captain turned over and fell asleep again with his spear in his arms.
He didn't sleep well last night, and he had a drink with Dai's housekeeper this afternoon. By now, the Jinwu guard named Guo was already exhausted to the extreme.
The Jinwu Guard who was on duty saw that he could not wake up the captain, so he went to call the deputy captain.
When the two of them walked out, the battle in front of them scared them so much that their legs became weak.
The Liuzhang Street in front of the square gate was filled with troops with no end in sight.
Looking at the shape of the armor, this is the armor of the Yulin Army. Isn't the Yulin Army in Beiyuan? How did it go from the north of the city to the south of the city?
"Who are you waiting for?" The deputy team member bravely stuck his head out to ask the intention of this army.
In front of the square gate, Su Ce raised his head. There was only a gap of two fingers wide, and there were only a pair of cold eyes. Su Ce and his deputy were standing on top of the square gate and one under the square gate. The two of them were up and down.
Less than ten meters.
"This is the order to supervise the country! Open the door!" Su Ce took out the order to supervise the country from his arms and opened it in front of his chest.
When he heard the words "Prison Order", the deputy captain couldn't see clearly the words on the silk cloth, but it did not hinder his other movements. He took off his armor and asked the leader to tie the hemp rope on the pillar of the archery tower, and he followed it.
The hemp rope slid down the square door.
Su Ce thought that Jinwu Guard was not going to open the door, and was wondering if Dai had bribed Jinwu Guard. If he had been bribed, there would probably be a big fuss tonight. While he was thinking about it, he saw the drop on the door of the square.
A man slipped down with a hemp rope.
"General, give me a look!" The deputy team member was looking at Su Ce with all his strength.
Su Ce handed the prison order in his hand to the deputy captain in front of the horse, whose clothes were messy and in a state of embarrassment.
The deputy captain only took one look, his scalp was numb and he was covered in cold sweat. He didn't know whether he was scared or excited.
"I'm here in person!" With just these four words, the deputy captain knew what to do!
The deputy team member was respectfully putting together the prison order, raising his hands above his head, feeling a light touch on his hand, and waved to the gate: "Open the gate!"
"Jiang Lan, I'll leave the street to you! Shangguan Bo, take your people to deal with the vassals next to Dai Mansion! Qin Huai, Zhao Zaixiu and me will go to the capital." Su Ce said to the four people behind him.
The person finished speaking.
"Here!" The four of them sat on their horses and beat their chests in salute.
Jiang Lan moved the horse's head and stopped the deputy captain: "You are looking for three people."
Raising his arms high, Liuqi ran to Jiang Lan's side.
"Let Jin Wuwei lead the way. You, the east gate is the farthest, go first, you, the south gate, you, the north gate, and the west gate is left to you! I will be in the middle. If someone knocks on the door, I will ignore it. If there is a wild arrow,
!Go!" Jiang Lan pointed at the four brigade commanders. Their tasks were not heavy, but they were the most important. Jiang Lan took out four gold medals from his pocket and threw one to each of the four.
Jiang Lan also made arrangements for the remaining two captains. Only more than a hundred horses were left in the Brigade and Ben Army last night. In addition to the horses of the guards, captains, and brigade commanders, there were more than 110 horses left. It was all given to Jiang Lan's Dong Gongzuo.
"You two have thirty riders each, and I will lead forty riders. If I can't get away tonight, you two have to help me buy some time!" Jiang Lan spoke very politely to the two captains. On the one hand, this The two of them are older than him. On the other hand, these two marquis' legitimate sons will be crowned princes at the court meeting next year.
The two nodded. Jiang Lan heard his father, Duke Jiang Bu of Qi, say that they were not demoted to an earl, but two marquises! Because the two of them had meritorious deeds. This is why the noble son's head was broken when he was young. The reason why everyone has to join the army is that those who are below the rank of Marquis and have honors will not be demoted if they reach the rank of nobility!
Su Ce looked at Jiang Lan issuing military orders in a strict manner and nodded slightly. Although he was still young, the arrogance in his body had finally been reduced. He was the legitimate son of Duke of Qi, the next Duke of Qi, and the future number one person in the ranks of nobles. Jiang Lan used to be a little in a trance.
Su Ce has experienced a lot in the past two years. After collecting bones in the grassland last year, Jiang Lan has changed the most. It can be said that he is a completely different person.
Seeing Jiang Lan not oppressing others as the legitimate son of the prince, but handling matters as a guard, Su Ce couldn't help but nod.
But right now, we can’t forget about business!
"Dismount!" Su Ce gave the order. Except for Jiang Lan's hundred cavalry, the other generals dismounted one after another and walked toward their goals.
Try to keep the noise as low as possible so as not to alert others.
The delinquents who were supposed to be patrolling the village were already stripped of their clothes, tied up with hemp ropes and thrown into a yard.
The people who took off their clothes were not many in number, but they were all experts. After they had dinner at night, they had to patrol the village at night. However, they did not expect that these people had drugged the porridge, and the drug poisoned themselves and others.
Bad handsome Zhang Jingde still wanted to resist and find an opportunity to escape from the place he was most familiar with, but his body was weak and sleepy came to his head. He closed his eyelids and fell into a deep sleep.
An hour ago, the leader, who was wearing Zhang Jingde's bad-looking uniform, ordered his subordinates: "Act more realistically!" and walked out of the courtyard.
Seeing the deputy nodding to him as he walked out of the square official's yard, the leader nodded, and his men with short sticks in their hands and small gongs hung on their waists began to patrol the streets according to the previous patrol route of the bad guys.
The people in the streets have gone home long ago. After all, there is no light on the streets. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset. They will have to run for a living tomorrow.
These fake delinquents knocked out the prodigals who were wandering the streets looking for secret doors, tied them up with ropes, stuffed their mouths with a smelly cloth they had never found before, and left them in a dark place.
Their work tonight was too heavy. There were less than fifty of them and they had to clean the street before midnight, so it is not to blame that their methods were rough.
These people were Peony's internal guards. When there was no one on the street, they stood on the street corner, waiting for the arrival of the Lu Ben Army.
The brigades and soldiers did not run, as that would be too much movement, but walked silently. With the support of the Peony Guards, they began to disperse. Except for the thousand people led by Su Ce, among the remaining thousand people, Jiang Lan's people guarded the gate, and Shangguan Bo's people were at the forefront.
One group is responsible for one house, and there are more than thirty houses in total that they need to "clean up"!
Shangguan Zheng is the oldest of the four guards, and he was just transferred back from the Annan Protectorate after the year. Su Ce asked him to take the lead tonight because the second prince said that this guy has a hard heart. Su Ce remembered that Wei Wei
Xian said that there are people in the Ministry of War who do dirty work, and Shangguan Bo is probably here to do the dirty work.
"Chirp!" A loud arrow sounded from the east!
Immediately afterwards, the sound of arrows sent in the south, west, and north directions also sounded.
