Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 359

Chapter 61 Knife King

In the Battle of Hedong, Liu Wuzhou first attacked and defeated Yuci, then attacked Pingyao and occupied Jiezhou.They defeated Taichang Shaoqing Li Zhongwen, Left Wuwei General Jiang Baoyi, and Right Xiaowei General Liu Hongji.The situation in the entire Hedong was rapidly deteriorating, but Chen Ying used the Dingyuan Army's four Zhechong mansions with less than 8000 people to successively conquer Shuozhou and Yanmen Pass, and the flying division raided Weize Pass. In the overall collapse of Hedong, Chen Ying and Chen Ying The Dingyuan Army under his command was very eye-catching.

Although Chen Ying actually had not only the four Zhechong mansions of the Dingyuan army, but also ten Zhechong mansions of the Lingwu left army and Lingwu right army, more than [-] Turkic cavalry, and the tenant Xiangyong under the command of the eight powerful men in Shuozhou, but under Li Jiancheng In his eyes, Turkic people are not human beings at all, they are just materials for consumption. As long as Datang is willing to surrender, there are not a few Turkic people who want to surrender to Datang.As for the Xiangyong of the eight great tyrants in Shuozhou, they are just folk husbands who make up the numbers.

Li Jiancheng reaped the benefits of having an elite army in hand. The four Zhechong mansions of the Dingyuan Army were forcibly reorganized by Li Yuan, and assigned to You Xiaowei and the remnant of You Xiaowei General Liu Hongji, who were reorganized into the new You Xiaowei Six. Luo Shixin himself was appointed as General You Xiaowei and became Liu Hongji's deputy.

Liu Tong, Bi Xin, Zhang Huaiwei, Duan Zhigan, and Zhang Shigui became the long history of the Zuowuwei Army, joined the army, or were the captains of Zhechong.Even though Li Yuan did not appoint Chen Ying as General Zuo Wuwei, in fact Li Jiancheng believed that with Chen Ying's ability, Liu Tong, Bi Xin, Zhang Huaiwei, Duan Zhigan, and Zhang Shigui were capable of taking over the new Zuo Wuwei General Pang Yu.

Li Jiancheng has reaped the benefits of having an elite army. As long as Chen Ying can train the crown prince's left and right guards to be as elite as Dingyuan's army, in the battle with Wang Shichong after the spring of next year, Li Jiancheng Li Shimin will never be the only favorite.

Hearing Li Jiancheng's words, Chen Ying was both happy and worried. He didn't have to worry about the right guard at all. Now the right guard is in charge of Yuan Baozang, but the right guard is in charge of the left deputy, Gao Yunquan, and Ji Tong, the right deputy. Yuejing, Du Shanguo, who joined the army in the recording room, and He Yuejing, the deputy leader of the right, are Chen Ying's former troops. If they were not convinced by Chen Ying's background in the past, now Chen Ying's identity as Hou Mo Chen's family has been exposed, and it is not a problem to surrender them. Even Yuan Baozang couldn't show off in front of Chen Ying.

However, the Zuo Wei rate is Wei Ting's old department. In Wei Ting's operation for nearly three years, the Zuo Wei rate is almost impenetrable. Although Chen Ying can train the Zuo Wei rate, I am afraid that the Zuo Wei rate will not accept it. .Because, at this time, Chen Ying is not the nominal commander of the armed forces of the Eastern Palace, and there is no way to march against them and enforce military discipline.

Once the generals disagree, it is a taboo for military strategists.Of course, if Chen Ying had absolute power, then everything would not be a problem.

Chen Ying thought for a while and said: "Wei Zuowei's leader is Jingzhao Webster, and most of the soldiers appointed by the army are former officials of Jingzhao Wei's disciples. I was ordered to take over the Zuowei leader. It is difficult to achieve results in a short period of time.”

The purpose of Chen Ying's words is to ask Li Jiancheng for the sword. He needs to gain the power of life and death over the left and right guards of the Eastern Palace.

Li Jiancheng is also a fine person, and after a little thought, he understood Chen Ying's concerns. Li Jiancheng said with a sigh of relief: "What did I think it was, so it was just these trivial things..."

A smile appeared on the corner of Li Jiancheng's mouth, so Chen Ying is still too young to hide.

Chen Ying's heart has already been revealed, if it's just training, there's absolutely no need to do it.As Li Yuan's son, Li Jiancheng, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, did not dislike ambition at all. On the contrary, they liked subordinates who were ambitious and capable.

When Chen Ying was always by his side doing his duty, he felt inexplicable, but now, he already knew the purpose of Chen Ying, he wanted to restore the glory of his ancestors, and become the Great General of the Zhu Kingdom of the Tang Dynasty, Prince Shaofu.

Li Jiancheng remembered that Li Yuan once told him that a carnivore is contemptible, and he is a great miao if he does not have a long-term plan.It is beyond reproach that Chen Ying is a meat eater, after all, in this era, the family and the country are the world.

Only a small family can take care of everyone. The bigger the family, the more scruples it will have.

Li Jiancheng is not afraid of Chen Ying's ambitions. Chen Ying is not only ambitious, but also capable. Competent and ambitious subordinates are his best help.

Li Jiancheng looked at Chen Ying and said with a smile: "If you are below the sixth rank, disobedience will be dealt with. If you are below the fourth rank and above the sixth rank, you will be dismissed on the spot. I wonder if Chen Qing is satisfied?"

Chen Ying waved his hand and said, "Actually, there is no need to cut them everywhere, I have my own way to make them abide by the law!"

What Chen Ying needs is actually a right.A name is enough, if even these arrogant soldiers led by the left guard can't surrender, Chen Ying doesn't have to mess around.

In Chen Ying's heart, he also had his own little plan.The reason why he did this was, of course, to hug Li Jiancheng's thick thigh.If Li Jiancheng was not before the Xuanwu Gate, he would be the well-deserved successor of the Tang Dynasty. It can be said that he was the most stable ship in the Tang Dynasty before the Xuanwu Gate change.More importantly, Chen Ying was born in a noble family, and unlike Li Shimin's generals who were born in a poor family, there was an insurmountable gap.

If Li Jiancheng had a more elite force than Li Shimin's Xuanjia Iron Cavalry during the Xuanwumen Incident, perhaps he would not necessarily fail. As long as Li Shimin did not immediately kill Li Jiancheng at Xuanwumen, Li Shimin would be the biggest loser.

In the Tang Dynasty, at least before the Anshi Rebellion, the world was still dominated by aristocratic clans. If a small person wanted to join the mountains, he did not do so randomly.

Li Jiancheng's efficiency was very high. On the day Li Jiancheng returned, the prince's order was issued to Chen Ying. Chen Ying took the prince's guests, mastered the military equipment of the East Palace, and the left and right guards were all under his jurisdiction.

What surprised Chen Ying the most was that Yu Chigong was the deputy leader of Zuo Wei.

However, Chen Ying did not conduct any substantive training for the left and right guards. Instead, he asked them to take off their armor and dig the ground and pick soil on the construction site to act as coolies like ordinary peasants.

Wei Ling, who led the left guard and the right deputy, was a little strange. The generals of the left guard and the right guard were used by Chen Yingcheng as a coolie. Wei Ling was very dissatisfied. He was born in Jingzhao Webster. The son-in-law of Yuanya, the prime minister of Henan County.In Wei Lingze's view, Chen Ying was simply insulting the soldiers led by the left guard.

But Wei Ting once told Wei Lingze that he had a bad relationship with Chen Ying in the past, so he must not run into Chen Ying's hands.So despite some dissatisfaction, Wei Ling didn't dare to be the leader.

On this day, Zuo Wei led more than [-] officers and men like mud monkeys until it got dark, and then they called it a day.Wei Ling quietly looked at Yuchi Gong, whose face was as black as charcoal: "Deputy Yuchi, defending the East Palace, we are naturally duty-bound, but... now, we are waiting for this..."

Yu Chigong looked at Wei Lingze, and said calmly: "Deputy Wei, do you know why the whole army would rather sweat like rain than stop to rest?"

Wei Ling really didn't know what happened. Anyway, when he heard that Li Jiancheng had transferred the left and right guards of the Eastern Palace to Chen Ying for training, but Chen Ying was using the entire army as labor, he asked for leave.He came an out of sight.

Wei Ling asked in surprise, "Could it be that these gangsters have changed their sex?"

Yu Chigong shook his head and said: "It's not that they have changed their nature, but that Chen Binke showed all the soldiers a sword and a suit of armor, and told the whole army that non-warriors can't wear heavy armor and hold a sword to win the king?"

Wei Ling said in surprise, "What kind of sword is the king?"
