The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 364
On the grassland, in the barracks.

Yin Mingyue is wrapped in armor, under the cold and ferocious Asura mask, a pair of phoenix eyes are as cold as ice, and these eyes are full of ruthlessness!

Cai Wei glanced at her and sighed secretly: Do you have no regrets and no regrets to be a masked figure for the king, are you worth it?

Not knowing what Cai Wei was thinking about, Yin Mingyue said to a group of women: "If you are afraid of death, if you can't bear hardships, you can quit now, and then accept the arrangement of the court to live a peaceful life of men farming and women weaving... This is your The only choice, there will be no second choice! In the future, I will leave the army without permission and kill without mercy."

A "kill without pardon" was murderous, murderous and awe-inspiring!Thousands of women stood upright, all muscles tensed, for fear of being beheaded.

Suddenly, in the silence, Yin Mingyue said fiercely: "I count by dozens! During the time of counting to ten, choose!"

"One...two...three...four...five..."

Six has not been counted, and finally a few women could not withstand the temptation of a better life, and silently withdrew.

The power of role models is infinite, and if there is one, there are two. Seeing that the 'role model' was not punished, many people retreated amidst Yin Mingyue's cold voice!When the word "ten" ended, the densely packed queue suddenly emptied, and after counting, there were still more than 200 people left.

"Since everyone is willing to join the army, I will announce the training discipline now." Yin Mingyue said coldly: "I will only say it once, but no matter which one you violate, there will be no exceptions, and there will be no next time! !"

"During the training time, latecomers, beheaded!"

"During the training time, those who leave early, beheaded!"

"During training, steal and rape the slippery person, cut them off!"

"When training, pretend to be smart, cut!"

"During training, those who whispered to each other, beheaded!"

"Anyone who is dissatisfied and expresses it with his mouth, beheaded!"

"Those who disobey the order, beheaded!"

"……cut!"

"……cut!"

A series of beheading made more than 3000 women who were supposed to be "female soldiers" tense, lest they miss any one.

After finishing talking about military discipline, Yin Mingyue went on to say: "You are my soldiers, and no one can bully you except me, Yin Mingyue. General Cai Wei is the general in charge of military discipline and military affairs. If you are treated unfairly, you can tell her. She I will uphold justice for you, and this general will never allow my soldiers to be bullied."

"Here!" Everyone responded sparsely.

"Didn't you eat?" Yin Mingyue asked solemnly.

I really didn't eat it!

Many people slander in their hearts, but they dare not show it. Yin Mingyue said before that even if she is wrong, she is right here.

Now I answered again, a little more tidy than before.

"I can't hear you!" Yin Mingyue said coldly.

"Here!" This time, they were loud and orderly, and these female soldiers obviously realized some essentials.

"There is no food today, only tonight!" Yin Mingyue said viciously, and ordered: "Now listen to my orders, go around the camp, and run until dinner time! The last 200 people will not be used for training tomorrow ..."

Speaking of this, Yin Mingyue said again: "Those who steal and play tricks during training, beheaded!"

In a word, it dispelled the regretful idea of ​​being smart. It seemed that he could only lie down and go out after exhausting his strength.

"Start, run!"

Following Yin Mingyue's order, the queue suddenly became chaotic, and more than 3000 female soldiers began to walk and run.

The thousand male soldiers rode on their horses and followed behind the team with their whips in their hands. Facing the lagging female soldiers, they just whipped them down.

Their strength is in place, they won't tear their flesh, they won't even tear their clothes, but they can make people feel heart-wrenching pain. Under the pressure of a group of female soldiers and a group of male soldiers, they rush forward frantically.

At this moment, the male soldiers turned into demons. They had no mercy, they rode on horseback like driving animals to whip people!

These female soldiers didn't know how many miles they had run, and they just ran to a stop. Some of them relaxed, and many of them passed out directly.

For those who passed out, Yin Mingyue directly asked someone to pinch them to wake them up, and then ran away without giving them any chance to rest.

Everyone's physical strength has been exhausted, and now it's a competition of willpower, which is comparable to physical strength. Yin Mingyue values ​​people with strong willpower more. If she had to choose between the two, she would choose the person with strong willpower without hesitation.

Amidst the female soldiers cursing, it was finally time for dinner. The pot of meat filled the air, and the female soldiers who had been hungry for a day swarmed over. However, what they didn't know was that eating was also part of their training. ...

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Looking south, in the northernmost courtyard of Shanhefang in front of the Suzaku Gate in Chang'an, Lawyer Pei directed a group of people to carefully dig the wall of the workshop.

The north-south attack is Dou Cong's plan to raid Daxing Palace. The north attack on Miyagi is the main strategy, roughly following the example of Yang Tong, launching a surprise attack on Miyagi from Xuanchongmen; while the south is only auxiliary, but both the north and the south will undoubtedly achieve better results. good.

His South Route Army is now hiding in Shanhefang, which is only separated from Daxing Palace by a Zhuque Street and a wall. Compared with the other 35 squares facing the front of Daxing Palace, there are only East and West Squares. Door.

This was the beginning of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty's construction of the city. For the safety of Daxing Palace, only the east and west gates were opened in the 36 squares on the front. A little precious reaction time.Because of this, the walls of Taipingfang, Shanhefang Xingdao, and Wubensifang, which are directly opposite, are extremely tall and strong, and strict inspections are carried out every year.

Although the row of houses on the northernmost side of Shanhefang were named under the names of ordinary people, they were actually Li Yuan's houses, and those so-called 'owners' were all Li Yuan's dead men.

This was what Li Yuan prepared before he left Chang'an. He hoped it would be useful when he returned to Chang'an. He was the master of Chang'an at the time, and it was very easy to change his household registration. To be on the safe side, he even destroyed the Chang'an household registration.

After lawyer Pei sneaked into Chang'an, he quietly contacted the "owners" of these houses. In order to avoid the square soldiers, he could launch an attack faster, so he ordered people to quietly dig the square wall of Shanhefang. The wall, when the time comes, it will fall down as soon as it is pushed, and you can kill the Daxing Palace on the opposite side.

It's just that the square wall is built with large stones, and the work can only be done at night under the premise of not disturbing other people, and the progress is extremely slow. However, according to intelligence, the tyrant Yang Tong is still staying in Wuyuan, so he is not in a hurry .

"Everyone, be careful, it doesn't matter if you slow down, and don't disturb other people." Lawyer Pei quickly ordered in a low voice when he heard the voice was loud.

"Here!" A group of dead soldiers slowed down their movements.

Lawyer Pei raised his head and looked at the tall palace wall opposite him through the vast night. His eyes were full of hatred. The man who lost Wen Xi's foundation, was also the one who severely humiliated his father, Pei Ji, not only shaved off his father's hair, eyebrows, and beard, but also branded nine scars.Hair can grow, but the nine scars can't be removed no matter what. These nine scars are nine great shames of the Pei family, deeply engraved in the hearts of Pei's father and son.

Pei Ji used to be a well-known celebrity among the scholars. How big his reputation was at the beginning, the shame now is as great. Now he has lost his majesty and has become a laughing stock among the famous scholars. When political opponents Liu Wenjing are arguing, he will pop up from time to time. The 'Chicken Master' even made Pei Ji lose face and dignity in front of Li Tang Baiguan.

The most detestable thing is that the bastard Yang Tong actually made people spread the word, saying that his father's current status was not due to his talent, but the compensation he got after being ruthlessly abandoned by Li Yuan because of his old age. .

what does this mean?It means that Pei Ji's status today is that when he was young and beautiful, he sold his ass to Li Yuan.Li Yuan's old love is unforgettable, and he compensates his old lover... Now when people say the name 'Pei Ji', the Pei father and son will think of it as 'Pei prostitute', thinking that everyone is laughing at them.

All of these are all kinds of humiliation that Yang Tong gave to the Pei family, it's no wonder that lawyer Pei hates him as high as the sky.

"Captain, Captain." At this moment, a dead man came.

Lawyer Pei looked away and asked, "What's the matter?"

"The general asked you to go to discuss the matter, saying that there is something very important."

"Where are the people?"

"In the study."

"I see!" Attorney Pei tidied up his disheveled hair and clothes a little, and then walked towards the study. As soon as he reached the door of the room, he heard Dou Cong's happy laughter.

"The lawyer sees the general." Lawyer Pei walked in and saluted.

"Please sit down!"

"Thank you, General." After sitting down, Lawyer Pei glanced over and found a stranger in the crowd, dressed like a military officer from the Sui Dynasty.

Without waiting for lawyer Pei to ask, Dou Cong introduced with a smile: "This is General Feng Duan, who used to be a famous general under Liang Shidu's command, and now serves as the guard of Xuanwu Gate."

Lawyer Pei's eyes lit up. There is Chang He in the Xuanzhong Gate, and Feng Duan in the Xuanwu Gate. Doesn't it mean that they can go to Miyagi unimpeded.I don't know how Dou Cong wins him over.

"General Feng Duan is from my Dou family." Dou Cong revealed Feng Duan's identity in one sentence.

Lawyer Pei nodded suddenly.Feng Duan was ordered by the Dou family to join Liang Shidu, and then surrendered to the Sui Dynasty, which is normal.Because multi-party investment is the practice of aristocratic families, the Pei family is no exception. Their father and son and Pei Ju are now working for Li Tang, while the team headed by Pei Shiqing is working under Li Mi's command.

"As far as I know, General Feng should be in Hanchuan. Why did he suddenly return to Chang'an and become the guard of Xuanwu Gate?" Lawyer Pei always felt that it was too coincidental.

"It's actually a blessing. Chang'an is the core of the Guanlong family. It has been less than half a year since it fell into the hands of the Sui Dynasty. Pei Renji and Li Jing are smart people, and they know that the imprint of the Guanlong family cannot be eliminated overnight. And what about Yang Tong? , He is the de facto emperor of the Sui Dynasty, and now he is coming to Chang'an for inspection, for Pei Renji, Li Jing and other left-behind officials, there must be no mistakes. Therefore, trusted generals are dispatched to Chang'an to protect Yang Tong's safety." Said At this point, Dou Cong laughed and said: "They thought that General Feng was from Liang Shidu and had nothing to do with Datang, but they never dreamed that General Feng was actually from my Dou family."

There are [-] elites in Chang'an and [-] soldiers in Guanzhong. It is not easy for Dou Cong to assassinate Yang Tong. Using the remaining power of the Guanlong family to transfer [-] elites is only the first step.

The second step is to use the connections of the Guanlong family to convince those soldiers in Chang'an who originally belonged to Li Tang, but the generals who surrendered Li Tang have already been transferred from Chang'an, and the person in charge of commanding the three thousand soldiers is Li Jing's younger brother. Master Li Ke.After inquiring about the news, Dou Cong made it clear that the plan of surrendering troops would not work, and he could only resort to a strong attack.

It is not difficult to deal with [-] soldiers with nearly [-] slaves from various families in the city, and it can also hold back the Xuanjia Army, so the [-] elites he brought must be relied on to storm the Xuanwu Gate, but he also knows that Yang It is impossible for Dong to follow his own settings in everything, so he increased his forces to attack Xuanwumen.

However, in order to avoid chaos in Chang'an, Pei Renji and Li Jing increased the guards of Xuanzhongmen and Xuanwumen from two to four, each with 500 people, and Feng Duan was the head of the new guards.

For Dou Cong's action this time, it is undoubtedly a great opportunity. As long as Chang He and Feng Duan can adjust to the same time, then they will be able to enter the harem of Miyagi unimpeded.The harem is where there are no guards.Although he had already found out that Yang Tong had a female soldier, the number of them was pitifully small, not as good as him in terms of numbers or combat effectiveness.

During this period, at most, there will be battles with the Xuanjia Army who have taken over some of the defense points. As long as they rely on the advantages of numbers and surprise, they can be killed.After all, the people he brought were all top rations in terms of equipment.

As for Yang Tong, Luo Shixin and others, no matter how strong they are, they cannot be defeated by two fists.
