After noon the next day, a group of people arrived outside Lianglang Pass and saw only the vast and endless stretch of military camps in the distance, surrounding Lianglang Pass. Each camp had a big flag flying with a big letter: "Han
"!
Standing at the foot of the East and West Yehe Mountain outside Lianglang Pass, the Han military flags were flapping, and hundreds of thousands of White Tiger troops were stationed here.
It was noon at this time, and many soldiers were training in the military camp. In an instant, the sound of killing went straight into the sky. Compared with the Qinglong Army, the White Tiger Army was an army that had fought hundreds of battles. The commander of the White Tiger Army, Ye Rendong, was a veteran of the Holy Han Dynasty. Although the White Tiger Army
There were only 120,000 people, but these 120,000 people who fought in the east and west to quell the rebellion and went out of the country were indeed much more famous than the Green Dragon Army that had been defending Longdu for a long time.
There are thousands of people passing by, not to mention the camps of 120,000 white tiger troops and 60,000 civilians. Looking east, you can't see the edge, and looking west, you can't see the edge. It's noon time, everyone
The smoke from the camp kitchen was rising. I counted it and found that there were thousands of them. If the north wind hadn't blown by, just this smoke would have enveloped the military camp.
"So many people are just stationed here, but they are standing still and consuming food in vain. What is the emperor's plan?" Zhang Xiaowu was puzzled. Concentrating the superiority of troops to destroy the enemy is the first key to the art of war. Since ancient times, the two armies have faced each other.
It’s not that there are too many differences in science and technology and civilization—for example, the Qing army versus the Eight-Nation Allied Forces—the one with more soldiers and generals has a higher winning rate.
Great, occasionally those who win with less and more are often praised. However, there are few eulogized stories, and most of the time what happened were crushing battles. The empire should not make such amateur mistakes, even if Emperor Taiqian was an amateur and guided an expert, he could
The Imperial Senate will definitely not allow such a stupid act—unless the Senate instructs Ye Rendong not to support him temporarily.
Historically, in the later period of the Tiantang Empire, several stupid emperors appeared in succession to govern the country, or they reused eunuchs to disrupt the country, or relied on foreign relatives to cause the foreign relatives to disrupt the country, which eventually destroyed the Tiantang Empire. In view of this, Sheng Taizu founded the country soon after the founding of Shenghan.
After establishing the Imperial Senate, Taizu established nine senators to restrain the imperial power and prevent the emergence of stupid emperors in the family-style empire from ruining the country. The Senate was loyal to the Xuanyuan royal family and defended the long-term stability of the Holy Han Empire.
The only job of the senators is to supervise whether the emperor's decisions on governing the country are correct, to remind the emperor on major political decisions, and to prevent the emperor from making mistakes. Of course, if the emperor insists on going his own way, the senators of the Holy Han Empire cannot stop it, but the emperor is either the emperor or the emperor.
His uncle was either the emperor's teacher or a veteran of world-renowned achievements. If the emperor really wanted to abandon the opinions of the elders and insist on his own way, he would be blocked by the elders openly or covertly.
Zhang Xiaowu was very interested in the Senate of the Holy Han Empire, but he hoped to see how the senators of the empire fought against the emperor one day. The ministers of the Qing Dynasty did not dare to fight against the emperor, which led to the demise of the Qing Empire; the ministers of the Ming Dynasty directly killed the emperor.
, leading to the demise of the Ming Empire; the Song Dynasty ministers did not fight against the emperor but fought against the military generals, and the Song Empire perished; the Tang Dynasty ministers and the emperor fought against each other, but the military generals destroyed the country...
In fact, it doesn't matter whether he is angry or not. What is important is that Zhang Xiaowu, as a modern person, really wants to see how this ancient person opposed the emperor, and whether he would be as ruthless as Li Cunyuan treated Cheng Chu.
Ten miles away from the White Tiger Army Camp, a White Tiger Army scout cavalry immediately rushed forward to ask questions. When they learned that the Dead Soldiers Battalion was escorting Miss Gu, the scouts returned to report. Soon, a group of people immediately came forward to escort and took over from the Dead Soldiers Camp.
The escort mission ends at this point.
Zhang Xiaowu wanted to send the wounded soldiers across the border, and the remaining soldiers could only be stationed outside the city, and they had to be on the rocky beach north of the Baihu Army Camp.
Everyone set up camp, eager to see the flowers of Two Wolf City, but Zhang Xiaowu did not bring many people with him. In addition to the fourteen returning wounded soldiers, there was an escort team of ten people including Wu Song and Zhao Suo, and others who entered the city to look for his wife.
The daughter's grandfather Mao, Wang Yijin and Chen Guanxi who protected Zhang Xiaowu, and no one else.
Xiao Kai's subordinate Guan Cheng was so anxious that he walked back and forth in front of Zhang Xiaowu. Zhang Xiaowu was upset when he saw it and said, "Come along, but if you cause me other troubles after entering the city, be careful of your skin." Guan Cheng was overjoyed.
Knowing that Zhang Xiaowu was taking care of him, he smiled and said that he would never cause trouble.
During the discussion, Chen Boqing came to say goodbye and said that if we meet again in the future, I hope we are colleagues. Zhang Xiaowu laughed and said: "If I can come back alive after the war is over, and I want to drink with you, you have to get me drunk."
Chen Boqing also laughed loudly, but suddenly he saw that the second lady got out of the car regardless of the maids' obstruction. He suddenly had a headache. He was about to hold up his hands and speak, but saw Gu Ruoxi running all the way to Zhang Xiaowu, holding her knees and gasping for air. She did not
The merchants and soldiers were once again impressed by her beauty, but they only dared to take a peek, and some lowered their heads.
"Second Miss." Zhang Xiaowu nodded and said hello, "I haven't seen you for a few days. You're fine. Why don't you dress up as a man today?"
"Humph!" Gu Ruoxi knew that he was teasing her. If he hadn't saved her that day, she didn't know what would have happened to her. She mumbled and looked to her left and said: "Master Zhang, this time I return to Longdu,
I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult to meet you again. What else do you want to teach me about Xi's medical skills?"
Zhang Xiaowu thought for a while and said: "Probably not. I don't know much, and the second lady is better than me. She is already much better than me. How dare I teach you again? I'm afraid you should be the one to teach me now. Don't believe it."
Ask the wounded. I only hope you can really carry this forward, because the number of specialized military doctors in the army is very small, and it is related to the morale of the military."
Gu Ruoxi immediately clenched her fists and said with great ambition: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, I will definitely carry forward Xi's medical skills. If you are injured on the front line in the future, maybe I will perform the surgery on you when you return to Longdu for treatment.
"
Zhang Xiaowu was startled and said with a wry smile: "Second Miss, do you know that there are certain words that are most taboo in some jobs?"
"What job?"
"The undertaker of Yizhuang, the medical officer, and the jailer cannot say that they hope to see you again, otherwise they will be easily beaten."
Gu Ruoxi smiled so brightly that she immediately enchanted everyone. They all wished they could replace Zhang Xiaowu and stand in front of her immediately. Zhang Xiaowu saw everyone's jealous eyes and turned around to stop in front of Gu Ruoxi, blocking the eyes of others. Gu Ruoxi reluctantly
He stopped smiling, nodded and said: "Master Zhang, I hope you will be promoted and make a fortune in the future, and come to Longdu City to be an official, okay?"
Zhang Xiaowu shook his head and said, "I won't go."
Gu Ruoxi was surprised: "Why?"
Zhang Xiaowu said confidently: "As the saying goes, there are many bastards in the shallow water, and there are big brothers everywhere. The capital of Longdu is full of officials and their clan forces. A young general like me, who is born in the common people, goes to Longdu to be an errand for them. I don't want to
I'm willing to bear the pain. It's so wonderful to be here in the north of the Great Wall. The sky is like a dome, covering the four fields. The sky is blue and the fields are vast. The wind blows and the grass is low, and you can see cattle and sheep."
Gu Ruoxi thought that after returning to the Central Plains, she would never see the beautiful scenery and someone outside the Great Wall again. She felt extremely melancholy and sighed: "If you go to Longdu, you can come to the Gu family to find me, and I will take you with me."
's wife."
Zhang Xiaowu nodded and didn't explain much.
Gu Ruoxi bowed and said goodbye. She looked at Zhang Xiaowu deeply while saying goodbye. There was infinite melancholy and sadness in her eyes, as if she wanted to say something.
As an adult, Zhang Xiaowu naturally knew the meaning of that parting look. He swore that Gu Ruoxi's eyes were the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen in his life, and that resentful and longing look always reminded him of the Japanese singer in his previous life.
Shima Akina's gaze was as tender as water. "Goodbye, Second Miss." Zhang Xiaowu said in his heart without any explanation.
In the distance, Chen Boqing cupped his hands to say goodbye, and he also waved. Chen Boqing had never seen this kind of farewell before, and smiled slightly.
The rest of the people were laughing and chatting in low voices, but looking at Sir Zhang, his eyes were full of admiration. Seeing Zhang Xiaowu turn around, Wu Song rode his horse closer and reminded him: "Sir, prepare to enter the customs."
"Everyone, get ready." Zhang Xiaowu turned around and said.
Wusong suppressed a smile and said, "Sir, I have one wife and three concubines. Do you need my advice?"
Xiao Kai also said: "Yes, Mr. Wu is very experienced."
"Xiao Kai, go away and stay. Stay outside the city and lead the team well." Zhang Xiaowu cursed and dispersed the raging fire of a group of gossip men, and then led more than 30 people including Zu Gongmao, Wu Song, Zhao Suo, Wang Yijin and Guan Cheng towards
The two wolves are leaving.
The Gu family's motorcade entered the customs first, and Zhang Xiaowu then handed Guan Die and passed through the White Tiger Army camp first. However, walking through the path of the fence, the White Tiger Army's inner camp and troops could not be seen outside, and could only hear the shouts of killing and training.
Wusong smiled and said: "The last time I came, I passed in the same way, but the cry last time was much louder than now."
"Maybe he is sleeping." Zu Gongmao said with a smile.
Passing through the White Tiger Army Camp, everyone finally saw the whole North Pass of Lianglangguan. They couldn't help but exclaimed. The two floors of the city wall, the front and back, and the towering inner wall inside the outer wall, were all made of blue hard stone, which was extremely hard.
.On the city wall, a white flag flutters in the wind, and nearly a hundred ballistas are exposed.
Thick crossbows glared ahead. The Wolf Guards guarding Lianglang Pass were wearing leather armor and leather hats with a cluster of wolf tails on the top of their hats. They were holding strong bows and staring eagerly, although there was a White Tiger Army stationed outside the city.
, but he still stood ready and did not dare to relax, he was indeed an elite teacher.
The two Langguan walls are only two miles long on the left and right, and are surrounded by high mountains on both sides. The end of the mountain is the first pass in the world, and even a bird cannot fly over it.
There is only one city gate in Lianglangguan. When you walk in, you will see that the gate is one foot high and one foot and five feet wide. The cast iron gate hangs high. Looking from a distance, it scares people so much that they can't help but retreat, for fear of that.
The iron gate fell and smashed people into pieces. This was not the first time for many people to see the Two Wolf Pass, and they were shocked beyond words by the majestic momentum and coldness.
