Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 959

The northernmost part of Ziwei Palace in Luoyang, Yuanbi City.

The emperor rode forward, and Cunxiao and Shi Xin were half a horse behind.

In the city, 360 young sergeants had shiny armor and solemn expressions.

A young sergeant stepped forward and reported loudly.

"Changbai Habayashiro sees His Majesty and accepts His Majesty's review!"

Luo Cheng nodded.

This is Habayashiro established by Luo Cheng in imitation of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and it is also a continuation of the Changbai Orphan Camp when he started his army.He selected children who died in the army, or those who died in battle without children, adopted orphans among the people to adopt them under their names, and then raised them in Yuanbi City.The emperor also deliberately changed the round wall city in the north of Miyagi to Habayashi Palace.

In addition to the 180 Habayashiro, there are 3000 left Habayashi riders, and [-] right Habayashi riders, a total of more than [-] people.

However, not all the children of those who died in the army entered the Habayashi Army. Generally, they first entered the Changbai Yier Camp established by the imperial court in Liujing to raise and train, and then they would enter the army to serve as officers. Only those who performed extremely well Only those who are very brave and talented can be selected into the Habayashi Palace.

The left and right Habayashi riders are actually equivalent to a non-commissioned officer training camp, and Habayashi Lang is more equivalent to a junior officer training class.The Habayashi Lang and Habayashi Qi in the Habayashi Palace are divided into three phases, the first phase is three years, and a group is selected every year.

They are called disciples of the emperor, and the emperor leads them personally.

Habayashiro will usually be taught the art of war by the generals, and then he will be in charge of the guards.The Habayashi Cavalry guards the north of the palace, and serves as a guard of honor when the emperor travels.

"Habayashi, for the country's wings, is like a forest!"

Shi Xin sighed.

Luo Cheng smiled and said, "Xiao Liu seems to have been studying a lot recently, even Habayashirou's background is so clear."

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built Yulin, the most important purpose was because the power of the lieutenant was too heavy, so he built the Yulin and Qimen Second Armies, and then the northern and southern armies were evenly balanced. After all, the Habayashi Army was directly controlled by the emperor. Beiya Forbidden Army.

But now Emperor Luo Cheng of the Great Qin Dynasty did not have the worries of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The imperial court had not only the twelve guards of the Nanya, but also the twelve armies of the Beiya, and the sixteen prefectures that had just been changed into the inner government, that is, the original Nanya. Four Houses and Twelve Houses of the Internal Army.

With such a separation of the three armies, and the Privy Council and the Ministry of War, the emperor did not have to worry about military power.

But the emperor still built such a new Habayashi Army, which seemed redundant and strange to Cunxiao. He even believed that the Habayashi Army was actually the same as the emperor's internal army's pro-Xunyi.

But the emperor had his own ideas.

Whether it is the emperor's pro-Xunyi Sixth Mansion or the prince's pro-Xunyi Sixth Mansion in the internal army, they all take the nobles, relatives, and high-ranking officials' children. These people enter the internal army to serve as bodyguards. This is to show the emperor's kindness, and secondly, to give the children of these honored officials a chance to become an official, and secondly, to strengthen the relationship between the emperor and these second generations.

But many people may not be real military officers.

But the Habayashi Army is different. First of all, although the Habayashi Army only has more than [-] people, there are many Changbai Yier camps across the country.

Although these people may not all be excellent seedlings, there are still many excellent seedlings among them, and the emperor selects the best from them to be trained in Habayashi Palace.

In fact, it is setting up a non-commissioned officer school to select and train a group of long-term, loyal and reliable professional soldiers for the imperial court.

This is actually breaking the monopoly of the general military aristocratic group since the Guanlong Group in a disguised form. Ordinary military children also have the opportunity to pass through the Habayashi Army, become a young officer by being Habayashiro, and step up to a higher level step by step. s position.

What has changed?In the future, the officers will not be limited to the families of the generals, but more low-level soldiers will come in. This is tantamount to breaking the monopoly of the military aristocratic group, just like the impact of the imperial examination on the gentry.

Scholars were no longer just from those clans, and civil officials were no longer monopolized by those clans. The imperial examinations brought in a long stream of new scholars and officials.

Although Luo Cheng has a lot of work to do every day, he often finds time to come over to review the Habayashi Army, and often rides and shoots with them to practice martial arts, explaining tactics to them, analyzing battle cases, etc.

These young Habayashi Lang Habayashi ride, so their loyalty to the emperor is extremely high.

"Cun filial piety, the country is strong and prosperous, and it needs wings to screen the feudal clan. Previously, the heirs have been entrusted to found the country, and now you can also prepare the kingdom to become a feudal clan."

The fiefdom that the emperor chose for Luo Cunxiao was in Yunnan, north of the Erhai Lake, under the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, and by the Jinsha River.

At this time, it was still occupied by Umans from Yunnan. The upper reaches of the Jinsha River were called Yakniu River, while a section of Lijiang River was called Moxie River, and Jade Dragon Snow Mountain was called Shenwailong Snow Mountain.

"I will give you a fief of six hundred miles to build the Lijiang Kingdom, which reaches Gaoligong Mountain and the Lancang River in the west, the Chaoniu River and the Hengduan Mountains in the north, the Erhai Lake in the south, and the Donghu River in the east."

The fiefdom that the emperor gave to the fourth child was remote, but it was very large. The straight-line distance from east to west and north to south exceeded six hundred miles.In later generations, there are more than a dozen counties and cities here.

Basically, all the northwest corners of later generations of Yunnan have been drawn out, and even the east has been drawn into the territory of Panzhihua, Sichuan.

But right now, this place is really wild.

In addition to the main Wuman, there are also many barbarians and Liao people, and even Qiang people, which can be said to be remote and complex.But the original intention of the emperor to divide the feudal land and establish the country was to open up the frontiers and expand the land, and screen the imperial court of the Central Plains.

Otherwise, why divide it.

"Now that Siye is fighting in Qinghai, we must guard against these barbarians in Yunnan. Before Emperor Ming of the Sui Dynasty, he sent Yu Wenshu into Yunnan to build roads and garrison troops. Unfortunately, the chaos in the Sui Dynasty caused the success to fall short. Now, although the barbarians in Yunnan submit to the court Surrender and submission, but this kind of submission is not stable for the imperial court. Only when the imperial court builds roads, builds cities and garrisons there can it be regarded as truly mastered. Totally own this place."

"Fourth brother, you are my brother. I believe in your loyalty and ability in the country that we brothers built together. The land of Lijiang is far more remote and backward than the West Sea of ​​Siye, and the situation is complicated. But it is precisely because of this that we need a reliable brother like you to go."

The fourth child smiled.

"During this period of time, I have also inquired a lot about the place in Lijiang, and collected some maps and other things. That place is indeed a place where birds don't shit, but it is not useless. I believe that even if it is wild , but since His Majesty is willing to hand it over to me, my fourth son and my descendants will surely be able to guard this place well, and even develop it well, forever Pingfan Central Plains."

Luo Cheng patted him on the shoulder, "That's enough, cheer up, I'm relieved now."
