95. Fear the enemy like a tiger
He Changnian was originally a pavilion soldier. He escaped from the thief when he was arrested. He was thrown into prison by his superiors as a scapegoat. The prison officer Xu Xuan saw that he was brave and took good care of him. The prison environment was extremely poor at that time, and the disease epidemic was prevalent, so it was not easy to get out alive. Moreover, the county magistrate and the pavilion chief were afraid of his bravery and were afraid that he would take revenge after he came out, so he wanted to kill him in prison.
Thanks to Xu Xuan's care, He Changnian did not suffer much in prison and was able to survive until he was released from prison. Because of this, he regarded Xu Xuan as his benefactor and obeyed his advice. When Fan Chong raised an uprising and Xu Xuan raised an army to respond, He Changnian also gathered some people, killed the county magistrate and his pavilion chief boss, avenged his personal revenge, and then followed Xu Xuan.
Over the years, He Changnian has only the boss Xu Xuan in his eyes. Even Fan Chong has to pass Xu Xuan to command him.
As for the fifteen-year-old emperor, let alone. He Changnian didn't take him seriously at all, otherwise he would not have dared to make a big fuss in the court so blatantly.
Now that the emperor has issued an order, no matter who dares to make trouble, he will kill him, and there is no need to ask for an order. Xu Xuan is worried that He Changnian will have a temper for a while and then jump up to fight with Liu Biao. Of course, the guards of the Yulin Army will not do anything to Liu Biao, but He Changnian is different, and may be really stabbed to death by the rifle blade.
Xu Xuan was afraid that He Changnian would make mistakes, so he shouted in a low voice: "He Changnian, come back honestly and sit down!"
Liu Penzi is not stingy with violence. He has to use ruthless tricks to deal with ruthless people. Power without a knife is invalid. What's more, now he can be bullied by an outsider on his own acre of 300% of the land? Mom, dare to make trouble and kill you!
Prime Minister Xu felt the murderous intent coming to his face, fearing that He Changnian would become the sacrifice for the emperor to kill a warning to the prestige of hundreds, and immediately signaled him not to act rashly anymore. The heroes would not suffer any loss in front of him. There are Yulin soldiers everywhere here, so it's better to calm down!
Both the emperor and the prime minister were in a position of measure. One raised the knife but did not cut it down, the other shrank his head and temporarily admitted his conscience. The two sides had a subtle tacit understanding, and the court finally became quiet.
The emperor glanced at the audience and was organizing vocabulary in his heart. Where did he just say? Seeing you making a fuss, he interrupted my thoughts!
Zheng Shen reminded him, "I dare to ask Your Majesty, what is the current situation of our enemy?"
The emperor said, "The enemy of our army is not far away, but the nearby one is the Gengshi Army. Because the pseudo-Emperor Liu Xuan favored Zhao Concubine, he appointed the state affairs to his father, and appointed Zhao Meng as the right Grand Marshal to control the government. Zhao Meng was tyrannical and incompetent, and all the ministers hated him. Wang Kuang, Wang Feng, Zhang Ju and others were all Gengshi generals, and even Gengshi Emperor was established by them. How could they be willing to be under Zhao Meng? Our army attacked Chang'an and was under heavy troops. Those who would be in chaos and would inevitably kill each other. If the generals did not tolerate Liu Xuan, they would definitely come to join our army one after another. Therefore, our army did not need to spend more weapons. At the latest, they would break Chang'an."
The generals below were stunned and stunned. What does it mean? There is no need to fight in Chang'an City? There will be civil strife in the Gengshi court, and their own people will beat their own people, and then they will all surrender. Can we enter Chang'an in September?
This is a really bold idea.
Chang'an is such a mighty city in the world. Hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers in the city may not be conquered for a year or two. Even if they can be conquered, they will definitely be killed or injured. Otherwise, why are these battalions reluctant to go to the front line? They are afraid of the powerful soldiers and high walls of Chang'an City.
Tomorrow is the first day of the August 2018. According to the emperor, we will be able to enter the great imperial capital within two months. Isn’t this a dream?
But the emperor said so confidently, where did he get his confidence?
How could they know that they were all written in history books!
The emperor first threw out such an inference, not only predicting that he would enter Chang'an, but also predicting that he would be in time. This force would be pretended first and then come true.
Yang Yin was anxious to attack the enemy, but the emperor seemed to have not finished speaking. He quickly took advantage of the emperor's breathing and interrupted: "Your Majesty, don't care about him in Chang'an in advance. Now the enemy is in front of you. What to do, please let Your Majesty make clear."
"A few days ago, the Yulin Army and the Guards Camp combined 10,000 troops, and over 20,000 elite troops in Gengshi, with the strong power. The Grand Chief Peasants thought that if they had lost their remaining soldiers, would they dare to come here again to solve my tiger beard?"
Yang Yin didn't say anything. Although he was a little owed a beating, after all, his record was real and not a bragging.
Wang Erlenzi suddenly stood up and shouted, "Your Majesty, if those bunnies dare to come, I will take the lead!"
Cui Laoshi scolded: "You Erlezi, don't you want to farm?"
"Hehe, if you want to plant the fields, you have to fight even if you want to fight!"
But the emperor shook his head and said, "No need for you, there are eight hundred Yulin troops outside the city, which is enough to defend against the enemy."
Eight hundred!
In that era when tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands were put into battle, what was the eight hundred soldiers enough?
Even the general Cao Jin of Nancheng was a little overwhelmed, "Eight hundred, no, not so much!"
The emperor waved his hand, "There are quite a lot! Eight hundred feather forest kids are enough to deal with these chaotic people. You don't have to worry. In less than half an hour, good news will come!"
This is really a mysterious confidence! Yang Yin was speechless.
Xu Xuan remained silent. He felt that the emperor must have been crazy. He sent hundreds of people to him and thought he could deal with thousands of elite soldiers. What was it that he was not crazy? Well, if you want to destroy it, you must first make it crazy and wait and see the show!
He Changnian snorted from his nose, and his only eyes that could only be opened were full of contempt. The emperor said one thing was right, and news would come later, but it would be impossible to tell if it was not a good news. General Linyi was very happy to see the little emperor brag about his panic.
As the only general in the audience wearing armor, General Niu and Ma felt that he should express his opinion on behalf of the military. "Your Majesty, I heard that soldiers are more important than elites. With the elite of the Yulin Army, one enemy can be more than ten, and eight hundred soldiers are better than eight thousand enemy troops. If the Gengshi Army dares to come, they will definitely be able to come and go!"
The emperor praised: "Liu Xiaqing is worthy of being a soldier and a true general!"
Eight hundred wins and eight thousand, is this a bit too much? A general who can only command cattle and horses has become a man of knowledge of the army. The generals of each battalion think that either His Majesty has a problem with his brain or their ears are wrong.
At this time, the eunuch Mama began to recite an edict, "The art of deciding a country is to strengthen the army and eat enough. The Qin people were quick to farm and to consolidate the world, and Xiaowu used to cultivate farming to stabilize the Western Regions. This is a good example of the ancestors..."
The content is very literary and very long, and the rough guys can't understand it. They sit there yawning and are drowsy.
Xu Xuan understood that this was a military farming edict, which meant that the military farming was to start military farming in Sanfu and Hongnong County. The specific content was first to be civil garrisons, distributing grain, so that hungry people could return to their original fields to cultivate them, and uniformly allocate the idle fields left by the death and escape of the people among the hungry people, so that they could cultivate the idle fields, and then implement a military farming pilot in Zuofengyi, and then promote it to the entire Sanfu and Hongnong County.
Xu Xuan did not argue, let alone the little emperor could not command the battalions at all, what he said was that he could not implement military camps with Yiqu. Just say that the territory he currently controls is only half of Zuo Fengyi and a few counties of Hongnong County, and the rest of the areas began to arrange government orders before they were occupied. I wonder if he was overestimating his ability or was very determined.
The edict was finally finished reading, and Xu Xuan was a little anxious. It was logical that the military emergency reports should have been constantly appearing during this period, but it had been a long time, but there was no news at all. When he thought about it, he guessed the trick here. Perhaps the soldiers who delivered the letter were stopped outside the door.
Fortunately, the Grand Secretary Yang Yin couldn't bear it, so he jumped out for him and asked, "Your Majesty, don't you know what the military situation outside the city is? Is there any news coming?"
The emperor said: "The Grand Secretary asked the right question! Niu Decao, go and see if there is any news. Don't delay the military and national affairs."
Niu Decao took the order out. After a while, he took a few people in. These people were probably suffocated outside the door and shouted in a mess as soon as they entered.
"The enemy's traces were found in the Nancheng Camp, and the number of people was unknown, ten miles away from the camp." The soldiers in Nancheng were sweating, obviously very anxious.
Cao Jin did not dare to move. After all, the emperor had just announced the order. Those who dared to make noise immediately were killed. He could not rush forward to touch this bad intention.
"Rongqiu Camp was attacked by the enemy, and there were about 10,000 people. Please return to the camp quickly to meet the enemy!"
"There are enemy cavalry near Puyang Camp!"
The generals began to stir up, with enemy attacks everywhere, and they all hit the doorsteps, and they said it was okay, isn't this a mess?
The Grand Secretary Yang Yin was furious and ignored the emperor. He shouted in a low voice: "I've hit the doorstep. What's the rest? Let me go to meet the enemy!" He stood up angrily and wanted to leave.
Xu Xuanshi stood up and bowed deeply to the emperor, "Your Majesty, military situation is urgent, I forgive you for not listening to the Hadith. After retreating to the enemy, I will ask Your Majesty for advice."
With the leader, the generals were of course not afraid and stood up one after another. The Prime Minister and the Grand Priest took the lead. The gatekeepers probably dared not stop him. If they insisted on stopping him, these generals and lieutenants would probably rush forward and break out.
Cui Zhen thought to himself, the emperor is still young. Now that he is playing big, the court will be dispersed and his prestige will be lost. Thanks to my old Cui, I, who is foresighted and did not listen to that bastard, and I, who was a slut, would serve the young emperor early.
He Changnian glared at the Confucian scholar who came forward to stop everyone from leaving the table, and spat hard on the ground.
Only General Liu Xiaqing, who was wearing armor, stood there, at a loss, "What's wrong? Why did this disperse? Can the general's seal be sent?"
Yang Yin had just taken two steps when he suddenly heard a man shouting: "Report to Your Majesty, the Yulin Army has fought with the enemy and has defeated the invading enemy. Sun Quchang is pursuing the enemy. He sent someone to report his victory first."
Yang Yin immediately stopped and looked at a Yulin soldier standing in the local area, asking, "What did you say? Did you fight away? How many enemy troops are there? How did you defeat them?"
The soldiers said: "There are thousands of enemy troops, and they are clamoring and shaking flags and shouting not far from each battalion, but only send a few cavalry forward, running back and forth, and not attacking. Sun Qu Chang ordered the chief of Yitun to lead 500 squadrons to shoot and kill the enemy cavalry with powerful crossbows, but he personally led 300 elite cavalry to detour the enemy side and back, and launched a fierce attack. The enemy was defeated and fled in all directions."
Yang Yin was stunned: "It's true that the enemy troops were defeated with three hundred elite cavalry.
He Changnian had changed his face, "What? I don't believe it! This must be their nonsense and pretending to be military merits!"
"The Grand Minister's Agriculture, it's true." A soldier who had just come in said, "There are enemy troops outside the Puyang camp. After the Yulin Army attacked, the enemy defeated and ran around. The giants in the camp also went out to pursue the remaining enemies. It is said that the Yulin Army killed hundreds of people."
"Hundreds of people... killed?" He Changnian's face suddenly turned gray and then turned red again, and he shouted: "What, how can he kill him!"
Yang Yin glanced at him, "The enemy is here, don't kill him, but they will still make trouble?"
He Changnian slowly sat back on his seat without saying a word.
At this time, there were another Taishan Camp. The soldiers from the Nancheng Camp came to report that the enemy had retreated and the west of the city had returned to peace. It seemed that the Eight Hundred Yulin Army had defeated thousands of enemy troops.
The emperor said, "This court meeting is full of important officials, and the grand occasion is unprecedented. Some sluts are clamoring for a few words, and you will be uneasy and disturb the court. If it is spread, people in the world will say that our important officials of the Han Dynasty are as timid as rats and fear the enemy as tigers."
"Your Majesty is saying." Cui Laoshi wiped the sweat from his forehead. It seemed that he was really close to His Majesty. Three hundred cavalry dared to attack a team of thousands of people. Wang Erlenzi was not as good as the combat power of the Yulin Army.
Yang Yin bowed to the ground, "I shouldn't have. Oh, I am guilty. Please punish me for your crime!"
Xu Xuan was silent for a moment, and suddenly bowed to the emperor: "The Yulin Army defeated thousands of enemies with 800 people, shocked the pseudo-Han, and promoted the power of our great Han. With such a strong army, how can the great Han Dynasty not be revived? I congratulate Your Majesty!"
