Tang Taizong is my elder brother

On February [-]th of the sixth year of Daye, the Battle of Subei, which lasted nearly two months, ended. The Turkic strategic intention to disintegrate the Sui Army in the Northwest completely failed. It was dangerous, and they had to reorganize their staff and enter a long rest period.

Originally, they hoped to rely on this battle to plunder a large amount of living materials in Linchuan and Dunhuang to replenish themselves, but this goal also failed. Not only that, they also lost a lot of horses and weapons. And the emergency mobilization also consumed the material reserves they looked at.

After receiving the briefing about the Battle of Subei from the northwest, Chaotang of the Sui Dynasty became speechless for a short time, and this result was also expected by Changsheng.Changsheng's Dunhuang battle not only rescued nearly [-] soldiers, but also defeated the besieging Turkic coalition forces of the Ming army and surrounded them. rescued.

After repeatedly checking the result nervously, the entire court was erupting.Yang Guang, who was overjoyed, forgot for a moment that Changsheng was the son of the enemy.Even literati who have always been at odds with the Ministry of War have come forward to ask for rewards for the people involved in this battle.In their words, with the famous general Changsheng here, it is not just around the corner to clear the Northwest. After a few years when the Turkic Tartars in the Northwest have completely stopped, they hope that Changsheng can be transferred to the Northeast to teach the increasingly arrogant Xianbei and Goguryeo there.

Starting in April of the sixth year of Daye, the people of the Sui Dynasty also began to spread the legendary deeds of Changsheng, including various folk folk artists who have carried out various artistic exaggerations of this battle, including but not limited to Changsheng with three heads and six arms, Fire-breathing in the mouth, discharge in the eyes, alone defeated a hundred thousand Turks...

On March [-]rd, inside the Li Mansion in Chang'an.

Li Yuan, the governor of Chang'an, was reading the letter from the Northwest in a relaxed and happy manner. This has been countless times in the past few days. Li Yuan has read this letter to Li Shimin. Although Li Shimin can read it himself, he prefers to use this letter. Chance to watch it again for yourself.

Li Shimin, who has been promoted to captain, was full of longing and envy after listening to Changsheng's self-reported summary of the Subei Campaign. He wished that he could also cross the frontier and defend his homeland like Changsheng.My cousin Fang Xuanling from back then is almost at the fourth rank of the official position now, and he is also a talent on his own. Sure enough, the people under his younger brother are all smart and talented.

Changsheng's army claims to have 3000 soldiers, but in fact, the total number of soldiers is about 600, plus more than [-] auxiliary soldiers, there are actually more than [-] people, but they can behead nearly [-] people, and they are fighting in different places. It is the main force of the enemy army, how brave and good at fighting this is, Li Shimin can't help but fascinated leisurely.

I can't wait to see and see for myself.

In addition to the credit for beheading, capturing the flag, capturing the helmet, and helping the people are all credits. If you add up to more than a dozen first-class merits, you can add up to a lot of longevity.Promoted to the first level of Northwest Deputy General, now Changsheng is still a hundred households, so Northwest Deputy Thousands, Northwest Thousands, Internship Commander of the Northwest Guard... The hereditary commander of the Northwest Department and the Internship Commander of the Northwest Department cannot be higher, otherwise It has to surpass Yu Wenshu.Even so, Changsheng has risen to seven levels in one go.

Yang Guang said that there is nothing wrong with this, and it can even be higher. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "It's better to give Li Changsheng the crown prince and less title, so that the extra credit will be counted in it, and all the officers and soldiers in this battle will be rewarded with a silver medal." two."

In April of the sixth year of Daye, Changsheng Camp.

"To the left……"

On the playground with loud shouts, Chang Sheng was watching the new batch of soldiers doing mechanical and clumsy movements, learning the formation coordination of the spearmen's phalanx.There are a large part of them from the Gondor camp. Yu Wenshu returned to Longzhou last month. After he left, he returned to his hometown after a long life. When she left, there were more than 400 soldiers from the Gondor camp. He cried and shouted that he must follow him to the Longevity Camp.

At that time, a dense crowd of soldiers knelt outside Changsheng’s camp. These more than 400 people wanted to sell themselves to Changsheng as slaves. He learned from the old people who joined the Changsheng Army that Changsheng made his fortune in the beginning by buying slaves from the market. , Now some old people at that time have not yet escaped from slavery, and they still regard Changsheng as master and servant.

Of course, Changsheng did not agree, and would not agree. The reason why the thousands of people she took in at the beginning of the locust disaster signed them to sign a contract of sale was to reassure them and let them settle down steadily. As for those people who became famous and then attracted to them, Changsheng did not sign a contract of sale with them, and of course she would not do such a thing as signing a contract of sale now.

Ever since Changsheng ordered General Chen Ping's old troops and Ye Qiu's subordinates to negotiate to inherit Dunhuang and the Gondor Battalion, the soldiers of the Gondor Battalion have dispelled their last trace of doubts about Changsheng. respect.

Changsheng's transfer of thousands of auxiliary soldiers from Dunhuang to the Changsheng Camp did not arouse everyone's disgust and displeasure. Not only did these people actively ask to join the Changsheng Camp like the soldiers of the Gondor Battalion, but some officers of the Gondor Battalion were still begging for Changsheng to let them go. She accepts them.

Since she was so immortal, she was no longer polite, and began to screen these recruits. She hoped that these new recruits should be low-level soldiers as much as possible, and they had not been contaminated with the habits of officers. She easily selected soldiers who met her requirements.

After all, after the great battle in Subei, most of the officers in the Gondor Battalion were killed. All the people she selected had combat experience, and some even established the Immortal Army earlier.

After receiving nearly 100 Gondor soldiers, and selecting hundreds of new recruits from the auxiliary soldiers, Chang Sheng suddenly had nearly [-] infantry soldiers in his hands. Therefore, she recruited the veterans from the Chang Sheng Battalion who were rich in combat experience and performed outstandingly. The veterans selected more than [-] people, all of whom were awarded the official title of banner officer, and then asked them to form a new platoon.It's called teaching platoon.

This is different from the previous military academy, which is a place dedicated to training officers, and the main characters in the teaching platoon are used to train recruits.

In Changsheng's plan, the teaching platoon is just a starting point. They will be arranged to participate in the officer training camp and take classes with them. Among them, those who perform well will be promoted to higher positions.

The remaining [-] infantrymen will be divided into two by Changsheng, and [-] veterans of the Longevity Battalion will be used as the backbone to form the new Longevity Battalion, while the remaining [-] infantry will be selected from the Gondor Battalion and auxiliary soldiers. The new recruits form a new battalion of Gondor.

The name of this new battalion really troubled Changsheng for a while. She wanted to leave something for the late Chen Ping and Ye Qiu. This was the effort she could do to commemorate these heroes in history. It was named "Chen Pingying" or "Ye Qiuying", but unexpectedly received unanimous opposition from the officers and soldiers.No one in the Changsheng Camp wants the new camp to be branded like anyone else except Changsheng.

Needless to say, the people in the Longevity Battalion have always regarded themselves as the direct descendants of the Longevity Battalion in their hearts, and the soldiers of the Gondor Battalion were afraid that they would be excluded from the command center of the Longevity Battalion because of this name.No one wants to be treated like an outsider.

So in order to satisfy everyone, Changsheng named the new name Qiushengying, implying the killing spirit of autumn, and most importantly, it was unanimously approved by everyone.
