Marry Changle in Datang

Chapter 744: Soft Armor!Accompany!

At dawn on the second day, Qin Wenyuan led the crowd to leave Jinzhou, and returned to the military camp stationed in Yunzhou via Bingzhou and Daizhou in a few days.

Sima Yuntian led Zhao Meng, Wu Ping, Kilisu Gu and other lieutenant generals to welcome Qin Wenyuan and others into the barracks. The soldiers of the Qin family army and the Turkic soldiers will see the return of the young commander and the new master.

After introducing all the brothers to the generals of the army and resting for two days, Qin Wenyuan sent an order to the whole army to gather food, grass and other materials to prepare for the deployment of the whole army.

When Qin Wenyuan left the army and entered the court, the tens of thousands of Turks, young and old, men and women who were taken in by the Qin family army were briefly resettled in Yunzhou. After discussing with Kilisugu, the generals in the army decided that the soldiers under Kilisugu's command would escort the tens of thousands of Turkic men and women to follow Xu's army.

After discussing the important matters in the army, Qin Wenyuan went to the Yamen of the Governor's Mansion in Youzhou to meet with the Governor Wei Xiaojie.

After the two met and saluted, Qin Wenyuan said to Wei Xiaojie.

"Master Wei! Qin's army is about to start. Qin came to say goodbye to you. This time, Qin led his army into Youzhou. Thank you for your care. The defense of Yunzhou City, Qin's army will return the defense of the pass to Yunzhou before departure. Garrison, when Qin was ordered to go to Pingzhou, he also asked Master Wei to order the customs from Yunzhou to Pingzhou to let him go, so as to avoid unnecessary disputes between the two armies."

Hearing what Qin Wenyuan said, Wei Xiaojie picked up the tea bowl and said haha.

"Master Qin's intention is that Wei will fully cooperate. I hope Master Xu will make great achievements in Pingzhou, and the chaos in Liaodong will be quelled as soon as possible, so that Datang can completely solve the threats and intrusions of the northeastern tribes. Lord Qin must be vigilant against the Khitan people. , The Khitan cavalry are powerful and often harass the border of the Tang Dynasty, if Master Qin can solve this disaster, it must have a double effect on conquering the land of Liaodong."

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the main activity area of ​​the Khitan people was the area in the north of Liaodong. Most of them belonged to the Turks, but some were under the management of Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Khan.

Qin Wenyuan thinks what Wei Xiaojie said is quite pertinent, but Wei Xiaojie doesn't know that Qin Wenyuan, who has previous knowledge of history, will act in a targeted manner.

The two chatted for a long time, and Qin Wenyuan told him to return to the Yunzhou military camp. After returning to the camp, he ordered Xue Yantuo's messenger who stayed in the Qin army to report the news that the Qin family's army, the master of Minmin County, would soon be dispatched to Pingzhou, hoping that Zhenzhu Khan Yinan The Shiwei, Mohe, Xi, and Suwei tribes who can restrain this area should not provoke the existence of the Qin family army, otherwise, the Qin family army will launch a thunderous force and wipe them out one by one.

Hearing Qin Wenyuan's message, the Princess Minmin who was still staying in Yunzhou, Chunniang, the owner of "Tanchun Fang" in Chang'an City, put on a black silk cheongsam from the "Neonsang" brand, covered with a white fox fur waistcoat, and hurriedly Came to the Qin family army barracks.

After entering the barracks and following the guards into the large tent of the Chinese army, Chunniang joked when she saw Qin Wenyuan alone in the tent.

"Is my brother leaving Yunzhou? How about taking my sister with me?"

Looking at this mature woman who was dressed like those in the Republic of China period in her previous life, with her slender waist, all showing women's most attractive eyes to men, Qin Wenyuan couldn't help it, and his breathing was a little short for a while.

Chun Niang is a master of the Fengyue Sect, she has long been used to the various expressions of men looking at women, seeing Qin Wenyuan like this, this alluring woman approached Qin Wenyuan and said incomparably charmingly teasingly.

"Young Lord, feel free to lead the army to Pingzhou. The little girl should report to the Khan to restrain the tribes under the jurisdiction of the area and not to have disputes with the Qin army. It's just that Chunniang will not be able to see her brother often in the future...!"

Listening to the woman's boring words and smelling the fragrance from the woman's body, Qin Wenyuan thought to himself.

"You fucking tease me like this again, believe it or not, I will deal with you in this account!"

Although thinking so in his heart, Qin Wenyuan resisted the impulse, and said to Chunniang calmly and indifferently.

"In this way, Qin Wenyuan would like to thank Princess Minmin. After the army arrives in Pingzhou, if there is any need, Zhenzhu Khan must be asked to help."

Seeing that Qin Wenyuan was not impulsive because of her beauty, Chunniang sighed secretly, put away her seductive beauty and spoke seriously.

"My lord, you don't need to be polite, but if you have an order, just send someone to inform you. However, if something happens to Xue Yantuo's department, please remember our agreement."

……

After hearing the news that the Qin family army was leaving Yunzhou, some people in Yunzhou City who had been ravaged by the war spontaneously organized themselves to build a new home in Pingzhou with the army. Xu Tian would not stop this situation. In that sparsely populated area, the population is the greatest wealth, so Zhao Meng was secretly ordered to lead two thousand cavalry to protect the Tang people accompanying the army along the way.

Two days before the departure of the army, Kilisu Gu led Turkic soldiers to guard the men, women and children of the same clan, Zhao Meng led [-] cavalry to guard the people in Yunzhou who were going to Pingzhou, and left Yunzhou in a low-key manner. city.

At the end of March in the fourth year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, with the sound of an earth-shattering cannon, nearly [-] cavalry in the Qin Family Army barracks in Yunzhou City, led by Qin Wenyuan, bid farewell to the local yamen and garrison officials who came to see off Yunzhou City. out of the barracks.

But you can see the flags fluttering and the horseshoes flying and rolling up dust all over the sky.

Surrounded by many generals, Qin Wenyuan was dressed in a white robe, black iron chain mail, and a purple gold crown with soaring hair. Two long feathers swayed in the wind. "Heavenly Halberd" magic soldier, with a face like a crown jade and an indifferent smile, is like a star king descending to earth, and a god of war coming to the world.

On the side, Murphy is wearing a red skirt with silver soft armor, and there are also two colorful feathers fluttering on the silver phoenix-winged helmet. A gold-plated red-tasseled spear emits a faint golden light in the sun, and the black horse sitting on it This handsome female general is very heroic.

Cheng Chumo, Yuchi Baolin, Fang Yiai, Qin Huaiyu, Luo Shiyi, etc. were also in armor, and all kinds of weapons were shiny. They sat on tall horses and hung steel whips, golden maces, meteor hammers and other weapons obliquely on their backs. In that murderous look, with a serious face, showing a full-fledged look.

Many people who were watching the marching army on the street applauded loudly when they saw the many heroic young generals in the army, and some Han people who had lived outside the frontiers for a long time murmured.

"This is the kind of person that can only be cultivated by the outstanding people of the Tang Dynasty...!"

In April, the sky was warm and cold, and there were still unmelted snow on the official roads. After two days of galloping, Qin Wenyuan led his army through the "endless" county town of Pingzhou, and caught up with him at the boundary of "Shangyin" city. The soldiers and people led by Kilisu Gu and Zhao Meng will reach the "Lulong" city of Pingzhou in the Sui Dynasty in less than a day.

When entering the boundary of Pingzhou and passing through the "Wuwu" county town, Qin Wenyuan ordered the army to continue to advance without stopping. Along the way, there were few people, a large area of ​​land was barren, and the houses were dilapidated. Compared with the prosperity of Qizhou, it was a world of difference.

After catching up with the troops and people who left Yunzhou two days ago, when they were less than a few miles away from the city of "Shangyin", Qin Wenyuan ordered the army to rest for a while, and sent scouts to inquire about the surrounding situation and join the army in the "Shangyin" The city notified the official government army here of the crossing of the border, and it was said that the officials in the government office in the city came to see themselves, the new governor of Pingzhou sent by the imperial court.

In nearly an hour, Shi, the chief of the "Shangyin" city government, went to the army to meet Xu Tian. He looked at this middle-aged Confucian scholar with gray temples, and his official uniform had faded after wearing it for some time. Qin Wenyuan said softly with displeasure in his heart.

"I am the new governor of Pingzhou from the imperial court. I don't know how to call this lord. How long has he been here?"

"Returning to my lord, my official name is Zhong Hanting, a native of Youzhou. Wu De has been working here for four years, and I haven't left this place for eight years. Today, I was summoned by Qin Dudu. I am very happy. Provide some food, grass and other things, but Shangyin City is vast and sparsely populated, and there have been many natural and man-made disasters in the past few years, please forgive me for being powerless!"

This is called Zhong Hanting's "Shangyin" City Yamen Chief Shi. He is afraid that Qin Wenyuan will ask him to supplement food and grass. It is also because the government has not had much income in recent years, so there is no spare money and food to honor the Shangguan.

Qin Wenyuan said with a smile.

"Zhong Changshi misunderstood. The governor asked you to come here to talk about money and food. It's just that I don't know much about the local situation when I first arrived here. I want to ask you to learn about the local situation while the army is resting. Since Zhong Changshi has been an official here for many years, he must have his own insights into the entire area in Pingzhou."

"Ah! It's just that the lower officials misunderstood the meaning of the governor. If you want to talk about the situation in Pingzhou, then the lower officials will say a few words. Pingzhou is bordered by Yanshan Mountain in the north, Bohai Sea in the east, and overlooking the Hebei Plain in the south. There are many people in the area under its jurisdiction. The mountainous terrain is complex. From a military point of view, it is indeed a dangerous place to defend against the invasion of foreign enemies. From Youzhou, through Pingzhou, and then to Yingzhou, there are Jinpo Pass, Juyong Pass, and Gubei Pass along the Great Wall. , Songting Pass and Yu Pass, the governor must have been able to think of the strategic system formed by the Great Wall and these passes. In fact, it is to deal with the intrusion of the Han people by the northern minorities outside the Great Wall. It's just that the court seems to have no energy these years Or they don’t pay enough attention to these places, so that the frontier air defense, foreigners invade and plunder from time to time, resulting in the weakness of the local government in western Liaoning, and most of the people migrate to the interior. Make good use of those barren lands, and the officials think that it will not be long before Pingzhou, Yingzhou and Songmo City will become important places for grain and animal husbandry in western Liaoning."

Hearing Zhong Changshi's words, Qin Wenyuan was very interested in this person. This person has his own unique insights in both military affairs and people's livelihood. Isn't this just the management talent he needs?
Qin Wenyuan wrote down this person, and after talking with him, he encouraged him and told him his general thoughts on the development of this place after taking office. Hearing Qin Wenyuan's ruling philosophy, Mr. Zhong was very happy, and his eyes sparkled with anticipation shine.

The army continued to move, and Zhong Changshi followed Qin Wenyuan's army to "Shangyin" city. After entering the city, Xu Tian bid farewell to him and hoped to see you soon.

Zhong Changshi watched Qin Wenyuan's army pass through the city and march towards Lulong City. He didn't know much about this young governor of Pingzhou. Adults seem to be a little different.

During the march of the army, the scouts sent by Qin Wenyuan reported that there were two slightly established barracks in the northeast region outside Pingzhou, both of which were in the territory of "Tanzhou" not far from the city of "Shangyin". The military purpose of the army and the Zhenyuan army is to prevent the Xi people and Khitans from going south. On the other side of the city of Guizhou, there is the Qingyi army of the Tang Dynasty. In addition to these three large-scale garrisons defending Youzhou in the whole area, there are two armed forces of the Jingsai Army and the Xiongwu Army outside the Yuguan Road. The number of military factions here is beyond Qin Wenyuan's expectations.

According to the report from the scouts, Qin Wenyuan roughly knew the complex military situation here. When he was less than ten miles away from Lulong City, the seat of Pingzhou, the scouts from the former army of the Qin Army reported again that the gate of Longcheng was closed, and it seemed that they did not want the Qin army to enter the city.

Hearing this situation, Qin Wenyuan ordered Zhao Meng and Wu Ping to assist Sima Yuntian to lead the army to follow closely, while he took his personal guards and a thousand cavalry to go to the gate of Lulong City to see what was going on.

After a while, Qin Wenyuan led his army to the gate of Lulong City, but seeing that the gate of Pingzhou City was closed tightly, and the Tang soldiers on the tower were bowing their bows and swords out of their sheaths.

"Listen to the guards on the tower. According to the order of the imperial court, Master Xu, the chariot and cavalry general, leads the governor of Pingzhou and controls the military affairs of Liaoxi. Why do you shut the gates of the city and prevent the army from entering the city? Do you think it is against the order to rebel?"

As soon as the Qin army finished speaking, a soldier dressed as a general appeared on the tower and said loudly.

"General Qin, a certain family is Xiao Yi, the fifth-rank Zhenyuan general of the imperial court. Listen to a certain family’s greetings, hehe! There are only tens of thousands of people in this barren land, so what if a certain family does not let you enter the city, without food and grass supplements, I’m sorry you can’t last for a few days.”

Hearing what this guy said on the tower, Qin Wenyuan already knew from the details that this guy was a descendant of the Qiwang Xiao family with five surnames in the Tang Dynasty, and the Xiao family and the eldest grandson's family were family friends. Looking at Xiao Yi from downstairs, he said sharply.

"Xiao Yi! The governor gave you half an hour to open the gate of Lulong City, otherwise the governor will regard you as a rebel, and the Qin family army will use all means to attack the city. At that time, can you bear the consequences of the two armies fighting?"

"Qin Wenyuan! Xiao was not frightened, just because you can capture the gate of Lulong City? Go back to your Qizhou, so as not to embarrass yourself here."

Qin Wenyuan's personal guards had long since heard that this guy was mocking his young commander, but they saw a sharp arrow with a cold light shoot at this guy with the sound of breaking the wind, and there was a "click" sound, and the helmet on this guy Hongying had already been shot down, the guy's expression changed drastically in fright, and he shouted angrily.
