Chapter 122

After Zhao Wang's analysis, everyone realized that the intention of the Turks going south this time was not simple. They not only wanted to snatch strategic resources, but even deal a huge blow to the Jin Dynasty in preparation for the next invasion.The situation in Bingzhou was critical. The emperor ordered that day that the left and right guards of the twelve guards led the army to assist Bingzhou, and they must be wiped out.

News of the Turkic invasion quickly spread in Chang'an, and there was no need to hide this kind of thing. The people of the Jin family knew that the deadly enemy in the north, the Turkic, would go south to rob every year.Therefore, when they heard that nearly [-] Turkic soldiers and horses were raging in Bingzhou, all the people were furious. Those with children at home joined the army, and those with horses went to the imperial military supply office to register. Under the mobilization of the imperial court, logistics workers rushed to sign up to transport logistics grain and grass.

This is the spirit and blood of the people of the Jin Dynasty. The Jin Dynasty inherited the system of the Han Dynasty, and the people also inherited the spirit and aspirations of the Han people.A hundred years ago, Rouran was so cruel and fierce, but the people in the Central Plains still resisted desperately.Not to mention that in today's peaceful and prosperous age, the people of the Jin family can't tolerate foreign humiliation even more.

Not only them, but also the major families in the DPRK and China have the same hatred for this. They are more aware of these barbarian chaos than anyone else.When the emperor stated his decree to conquer the Turks on the grand court ceremony, all the officials agreed wholeheartedly.

Zhao Wang's mansion, Jiang Chengxiao and Zhao Wang sat on their knees facing each other.

"Have you thought about it, taking this step to be a father will not allow you to retreat." King Zhao looked at him seriously.

Jiang Chengxiao nodded slightly, "Father, my son still says the same thing. Although he can't charge forward, he is still willing to fight the Turkic battle for thousands of miles. My son will not become Zhao Kuo, but I don't want all the military books I have read these years to be like chicken ribs. Wang trusted his son once."

King Zhao nodded slightly, and said: "Since you have made up your mind, being a father will not stop you. This time, being a father has already asked His Majesty for the post of Hussar General and Military Counselor for you. For this expedition, You need to keep in mind four points. Listen well, see well, learn well, and keep your mouth shut. Do you understand?"

Well, the position has been arranged, let's cut it first and play later.

"My son understands." Jiang Chengxiao hesitantly said: "It's just that my son has never been an official, let alone stayed in the Jinwu Guard. Why did His Majesty grant me the position of Hussar General? Is this too much, and will it make the soldiers dissatisfied."

The positions in the Jin Dynasty army are roughly like this. The first-class is naturally a general of Yiwei, who is a third-rank military post.The second class is the two sub-generals, from the third-rank military rank.The third rank is General Hussars and General Chariots, which are the fourth-rank military posts.The following are from the fourth-rank school lieutenant, the fifth-rank brigade commander, and the chief soldier.

As a person who had never fought a war, he was awarded the fourth-rank hussar general as soon as he joined the army. It was indeed easy for others to dissatisfy.As for the military counselor, it is a position similar to that of a staff officer in the army, and he does not have much military power in his hands.But Hussar Generals are different. If there are changes during the war, Hussar Generals and Chariot Generals can control 5000 to [-] troops.

"It seems that you haven't understood the four points Weifu just said." Although Zhao Wang was disappointed that he couldn't understand what he expressed, he was a little relieved.At the very least, he also knew that the simplicity of the position would make the soldiers dissatisfied.

Ok?
Jiang Chengxiao was startled, and then remembered those four points, with a strange look on his face.So it turned out that at first he thought that King Zhao was telling him to listen more, read more, learn more and talk less.Unexpectedly, King Zhao didn't trust him to lead the army at all. The hussar general was probably just a false name, but the military counselor should be real.

Seeing the understanding expression on his face, King Zhao slowly said: "It's your first time to go out, don't rush to make meritorious deeds, you must start from the most basic. For example, how to camp, how to find water sources, how to be on guard at night, how to teach General orders, how to attack the city, how to defend the city, how to march, etc. These are what my father planned to teach you personally, but now it seems that I can only let you get used to them. After this battle is over, my father will teach you, presumably You won't be blind."

"My son understands, he must remember his father's teaching." Jiang Chengxiao bowed.

Then the two talked about some precautions in the army, and then separated.Zheng Shi naturally disagreed with Jiang Chengxiao's plan to join the army to fight against the Turks, but this matter had already been decided by King Zhao, and she had no choice but to do so.

After talking with Mrs. Zheng in Zhao Wang's mansion, and comforting Le Ping who was crying uncontrollably for a while, he was about to get up and go back to Langya County mansion to prepare matters. Before leaving, Yan'er quietly found him.

"Why does my brother join the army? There are so many talented people in the court, so why does my brother have to go to the battlefield in person and risk his life?"

"How can you come to a small family without everyone, the family and the country are in trouble, how can you sit idly by as a child of the clan." Jiang Chengxiao said righteously.For a moment, he really believed what he said.

Lie'er bit her red lips lightly, took out a peace talisman from her sleeve, and solemnly handed it over to her elder brother, "Elder brother has family and country in his heart, little sister shouldn't talk too much, I hope elder brother will return in victory as soon as possible."

Accepting the peace talisman, he stretched out his hand to gently rub her head, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother will be fine, just stay in the mansion and wait for the good news. I promise you that I will return safely."

"Ah."

After returning to Langya County's mansion, Jiang Chengxiao told Changsun Qingyi about joining the army. Unexpectedly, Changsun Qingyi didn't cry, nor made a fuss not to let him go, but said very seriously: "Don't worry, my husband. Everything in the family has concubines."

"I thought you were going to stop me." Jiang Chengxiao took off his coat while laughing, picked up the cold tea on the table and drank it in one gulp.

Changsun Qingyi said: "The concubine is naturally reluctant to part with her husband, and also afraid of the ruthlessness of swords and guns on the battlefield, but since the husband has the ambition to serve the country, how can the concubine not know his heart. After the husband joins the army, the concubine should pray for him behind closed doors, Until your husband returns victorious."

That's how she is, she always knows the general situation outside, is sensible, and considers him.

Although she said so, Jiang Chengxiao didn't understand why, she did it reluctantly, and deliberately made a gesture to prevent herself from worrying. In fact, she must be very uncomfortable in her heart.So Jiang Chengxiao walked over, hugged her in his arms, and said, "Don't worry, my husband's expedition this time is not like a fierce general facing a rain of swords, guns and arrows. What's more, His Majesty's dispatch of left and right guards will definitely defeat the Turks in one fell swoop. "

The eldest Sun Qingyi nodded silently, and fell into her husband's arms.

"During the period of my expedition, you should pay attention to eating, remember to keep warm, and remember not to think too much. It is a good thing that your gas disease has not recurred this winter. When you find that real Miaoying, you must It will definitely heal you."

Jiang Chengxiao stroked her embroidered hair, and continued: "If you are tired in the mansion, go to bed early, and remember to ventilate the room. If you are bored, go to the palace to spend more time with Auntie, Le Ping, and the third younger sister. There are more."

Before he finished speaking, the elder Sun Qingyi in his arms still cried after all, and wept softly in his arms.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengxiao sighed slightly, stretched out his hand to gently pat her fragrant shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I won't put myself in danger as a husband, I must always remember to protect myself as a husband, don't worry, madam."

Changsun Qingyi was much more persuasive than Leping, and she calmed down after a while, enduring the pain in her heart and going on to prepare items for the expedition to her husband.

After comforting his wife, Jiang Chengxiao went to the study room, first offered incense to his biological mother according to the usual practice, and then came out, walked to the main seat and knelt down.Opposite him, Nan Jiyun and Zu Yan also knelt on the cushions and waited for an explanation.

"Jiyun, don't follow me this time. You are more familiar with the affairs in Chang'an than Zuyan, so it is most suitable for you to stay." Jiang Chengxiao said: "Madam's safety is up to you, don't let me down .”

Although he wanted to continue to follow the master, he would never say no to the master's order. Nan Jiyun immediately said: "Don't worry, the master, the subordinates will definitely protect the mistress."

Zu Yan smiled darkly, and said to Nan Jiyun: "Brother Nan, don't worry, I will definitely protect the master."

Nan Jiyun also looked at Zu Yan seriously and said: "Remember what you said, if the master is injured in the slightest, don't blame me for not thinking about brotherhood."

Knowing that Big Brother Nan is serious at the moment, Zu Yan's face straightened immediately, and he cupped his hands and said, "Brother Nan, don't worry, if Master is injured, Zu Yan will atone for it with death."
