...........
Although Lin'an is not the capital at this time, it is actually the capital of a country, and it is the capital of a country that has been in war for a long time. Of course, its city defense is very strong! There are several city gates in Lin'an alone, and the outermost layer is a wooden gate; the second stone gate - also known as Qianjin Gate - is a hanging gate. It is not put down normally, and it will only be put down when the war is about to be put down, and its weight is more than ten thousand pounds! The third one is an iron fence gate; the fourth one is also a wooden gate. Several important city gate towers also have a urn city - that is, there is a castle surrounded by city walls and an inner city gate in the city gate tower.
Once all the city gates of this layered layer are closed, it will be difficult for Chen Dexing to blast the 6 3-inch bronze cannons from Lin'an to blast, unless they are in advance to shoot. However, the Lin'an city wall is under the guard of the wide moat and cannot get close to fire.
Therefore, after repeated research by the Chen family's General Staff Office, a plan was formulated to seize the door! As long as any of the 18 floods and droughts in Lin'an were captured, Chen Dexing's 3,000 soldiers could drive in to launch a military admonition or mutiny!
"The last general, the eighth general, the third general and the Yuhang Gate, investigate and investigate. Baoyilang Prince Ye met with Taiwei Chen!"
A gatekeeper who had never worn armor and had never even worn the red battle jacket of the Song army was just a long dressed man who was giving a great gift to Chen Dexing, who was riding on the horse. This man was about thirty years old, and he had three willow beards like a civil servant, with his eyebrows and handsome eyes. His skin was fine and white, and he looked like a white-faced scholar.
In fact, this person is a white-faced scholar! The Southern Song Dynasty only had high school students, even if they were from generals, and they regarded studying for the imperial examination as the right way. The warlords in Sichuan, Jinghu, and Lianghuai might be better, but the generals in the army of Lin'an were mostly from Confucian scholars who were in the martial arts ranks, and the dispatch was also obtained through the door. However, these generals would not really put their minds into leading troops to train troops. Of course, the children of these three generals were not dandy.
Usually, their tutoring is very strict and they are all very motivated. When they were young, they would be obsessed with the imperial examinations, study hard like ordinary scholars, and then take the hall lock exam (the imperial examination specially prepared for officials). After obtaining the status of an juren, they would take the Ministry of Rites exam.
After passing the exam, he will transfer his literary and financial resources to become a top figure in the literati class. If he fails, he will continue to be a military officer while studying. When he is a little older and has not been in high school, he will have to change his career and take over the family industry. The generals and officials of the three yamen army are both "civil and military" and "integrated government and business" and have industries at home, otherwise how can they be enough for the expenses based on a few salary?
In short, although the generals of the three yamen of Zhao's official army were named military officials, they were actually Confucian businessmen, and they were masters and entrepreneurs of Chinese studies in later generations! If the officers in the revolutionary army in later generations were all masters of Chinese studies and local capitalists, they would probably not even be able to defeat the Great Burmese Empire...
Wang Ziye, who was appointed as Baoyilang, was a martial official of the Song Dynasty who was full of knowledge. He had participated in the Ministry of Rites three times, but unfortunately he was not able to go to high school. Now, except for working at Yuhang Gate, he was studying hard at home and preparing to participate in the locking hall test in Jingding for the second year. If he didn't have high school in his next subject, he would have to change his career and learn to do business.
As for how to turn a group of his troops into elite soldiers who can really go to battle and kill the enemy, Wang Baoyi never thought about it carefully. Because he knew that this was impossible, Lin'anzi, who had his own careers, could do whatever he wanted to come to the military camp for a month every year. It was already good to stand at the gate of the city to pretend. How could he really practice them as a soldier?
Fortunately, although it is not Chengping now, Lin'an has not seen any enemy in the vicinity of more than a hundred years. The Lin'an city gates are not closed at night, which is no different from Bianliang before the Jingkang Shame.
"Brother Zhaowen is out, please get up quickly." Chen Dexing immediately folded his fists and returned the greeting, politely calling the other party's font size. It turned out that the two had known each other earlier, but they had no close friends.
Chen Dexing pointed to Wen Tianxiang, who was riding a donkey beside him, and smiled and said, "This is Wenwenshan, Luling."
"The Principal Wen!" Wang Ziye quickly looked closely and immediately recognized Wen Tianxiang in Confucian uniform. He quickly bowed again, "Don't respect, lose respect."
"Brother Zhaowen," Chen Dexing laughed without waiting for Wen Tianxiang and Wang Ziye to greet him, "I and Brother Wenshan are going to go to the North Nei for a banquet. When I come back, I will have a banquet with me and have a chat with me." He pointed to the cavalry behind him, "These are my companions. It is not very convenient to show off in the city. I would like to ask Brother Dezhao to take care of Yi Er?"
"Okay, just go to the gatekeeper's barracks to rest. Anyway, there is also empty there. I will ask someone to prepare some wine and food to deliver."
"Then I'll be working." Chen Dexing smiled and thanked. There were barracks next to the 18th gate of Lin'an that were specially used by the defenders. The barracks of the Yuhang Gate were in the urn city. Naturally, they were all empty. In addition to stacking the equipment to guard the city, they were just to use private goods as free warehouses. However, some houses were always empty, which was used to deal with the inspections above.
"Brother Zhaowen, is there a cleaner room? Brother Wenshan and I want to change our official uniforms."
"Some, some, come with me, come with me..." Wang Ziye didn't know there was a fraud, so he just nodded repeatedly.
Of course there are some clean empty houses, just close to the city gate, which is for Wang Ziye. He would not stay at the city gate all day long to eat wind and sand. He still had to have a quiet environment to study. Chen Dexing proposed to find a place to change clothes, just to find a place where Wang Ziye can rest and study so that it is convenient to capture it tonight... As long as he catches him, Yuhang Gate will be able to be captured without bloodshed.
Chen Dexing and Wen Tianxiang changed their official uniforms before returning to the city gate, but they saw that the prince had also changed his clothes, which was a battle jacket made by the Song army. There was a sword hanging on his waist. He shouted at his subordinates in a furious manner.
"Hurry, hurry up, scout guys, hurry up and put together a team... It's true that the court's salary has been seldom done for so many years, why is it difficult to get into trouble when things come to an end? Don't let the fuck out, you have to go if you click on the name. Who dares not go? I will let you know what military law is ruthless!"
Chen Dexing was stunned for a moment, subconsciously pinched the hilt of the sword, and looked around. The 300 people he brought were watching, and a few were still laughing. The main reason was that the three yamen soldiers were dispatched in a team was too funny. Not to mention the chaos, everyone, including Wang Ziye, did not wear armor, had no crossbows and shields, and just took a long spear that was not very long. Who was going to fight? How could the military law be ruthless when fighting?
"The general of the Palace Front Office has dispatched troops to the east of the city to martial law. There are demon cults gathered there! It's really unlucky that they encountered such a thing..." Wang Ziye saw Chen Dexing and Wen Tianxiang, and he didn't bother with his big soldiers. He came up and told the two of them a big news.
"What?"
Chen Dexing was stunned again and again - the Demon Cult, it sounded like he had entered Jin Daxia's martial arts novel. He had not traveled to the martial arts world, right?
"It's Manichi!" Wen Tianxiang's reaction was faster than Chen Dexing. He frowned, "How did such a demonic man arrive in the east of the city?"
"It's always been there!" Wang Ziye waved his hand, "The Demon Fang is from Zhejiang, and Lin'an was once captured by the Demon Fang! After the Demon Fang died, the remnants of the Demon Cult have been active, but they have been stable for nearly a hundred years and have never had any major troubles, so the government is too lazy to take them. I don't want to gather people today, and I really don't know what kind of trouble I want to make!"
After saying that, he stomped his feet and went back to dispatch his troops. He barely gathered about a hundred people before he tied the bullet and drove away.
...
"Empress Wang Jie, I have transferred 3,000 people to you and gathered outside Dongbianmen. You will take them to capture the demons of the Demon Sect, and there must be no mistakes!"
At this time, Jia Sidao was already well-equipped and sat upright after the capital palace and gave orders to Wang Jian.
At this time, there were only two soldiers in the Three Yamen in Lin'an, namely Han Zhen, the official in the front office of the Tietang Hall, and Wang Jian, the official in the Tietang Guards. The head of the Taietang Infantry Department went to Jiankang Mansion. The Taietang Guards and the Taietang Infantry Department only had different names and had exactly the same equipment, and they had no cavalry. One of the three Yamen in charge must be stationed in Jiankang Mansion to guard the northern gate of Lin'an.
By the way, although the Palace Front Office, the Guards and the Guards and Infantry Department nominally all represented more than 30,000 soldiers, which seemed to be three "group armies", they were actually three "commands". In fact, the troops under the control of the Three Yas are directly under the Privy Council. The Three Yas can't control the people below. Only when the troops are sent, the Privy Council will order the mobilization of troops to raise horses - this set is inherited from the Northern Song Dynasty. Wang Jian, the leader of the Guards and Horse Army Department, usually sits in the yamen, and at most he takes charge of a hundred or dozens of personal soldiers, all of which he brought from Sichuan.
"My husband, relying on 3,000 people is not useful, right? The three yamen troops in Lin'an have less than 70,000. Can we send more?"
Wang Jian took the order, but did not leave. Instead, he frowned and wanted to ask for more people. He had been in Lin'an for some time and looked down on the Three Yamen Army. The 3,000 people were not as good as the 300 people he had in Hezhou. It was really a headache to take them to the battlefield.
"I know, I know..." Jia Sidao nodded with a wry smile. Of course, he also knew what the Third Yajun looked like, so he wanted to swallow Chen Dexing's Pili Navy. "You bring people there first and bring all your No. 100 personal soldiers. If it is not enough, I will recruit some Third Yajun for you to use."
