Tiantang

Chapter 403

Chapter 411
On this early winter morning, the morning glow spread across the land, giving the military camps that stretched for miles a layer of solemnity and solemnity.

The loud and sobbing bugle sounded suddenly, and the originally silent barracks immediately heard the sound of soldiers lining up for drills, shouting and shouting, as well as the neighing of war horses, and the clashing of knives and guns.

The air was filled with an unpleasant smell of horse manure mixed with dry firewood, and the military flag fluttering in the wind was faintly stained with crystal dew.

boom!
The roar of horseshoes came suddenly, and the official road in the direction of Chang'an was filled with smoke and dust, as if there was an army moving.The scouts and checkpoint guards in the camp immediately became tense, and immediately beat the army drum for the alarm.

Boom boom boom!
The generals and soldiers who were cooking and waiting for breakfast immediately put on their armor and carried weapons out of the tent, and automatically gathered together according to the formation, shouting endlessly.

Surrounded by the Eighteen Iron Guards, Zhang Xuan also left his tent, and went out of the gate, quietly gazing at the way he came from.

Guo Ziyi and other generals swarmed over immediately, standing behind Zhang Xuan and obeying orders.But at this time, the soldiers opened the gate, and groups of solemn-looking soldiers rode out of the gate with guns and horses, formed a formation in the empty field in front of the gate, and made all preparations for fighting against the enemy.

It should be said that after several years of training and grinding, and after the baptism of war, the Longshuo army under Zhang Xuan has strict military discipline and decisive style, showing extremely high quality, which can also reflect the extremely strong strength of this army. fighting power.

Zhang Xuan was very satisfied.Although he didn't say anything, the smile on the corner of his mouth was enough to prove everything.

When Zhang Xuan reorganized the army, he first emphasized military discipline.Because in Zhang Xuan's view, military discipline is a kind of combat power.A well-disciplined army will not lose its combat effectiveness, but an army with lax military discipline will collapse without fighting.

As a time traveler, Zhang Xuan is actually not omnipotent.In terms of military strategy and strategy, he may not be better than famous generals such as Guo Ziyi in terms of leading troops to fight, but Zhang Xuan has information advantages and strategic thinking that surpasses this era, and his vision is extremely broad. He determines the overall strategic policy , and the specific march and battle were left to Guo Ziyi and other generals.

And now there is Tian Kexin, a female military adviser who is proficient in the art of war and various miscellaneous studies.

After a period of observation and testing, Zhang Xuan discovered that this woman is not just talking about it on paper, her strategy and ability to serve as a military officer are far better than Guo Ziyi and others.And because of women's natural delicacy and attention to detail, with the assistance of this wonderful woman, Zhang Xuan can save a lot of worry, and can avoid his decision-making mistakes as much as possible.

Guo Ziyi clasped his fists and said loudly, "My lord, the formation of the three armies is over."

Zhang Xuan smiled, "Don't be nervous, it's not the enemy, but the guest."

Guo Ziyi smiled.

Not long after, this military horse appeared in everyone's field of vision.

There were no flags, no supplies, or even weapons, but a complete set of emperor's ceremonial guards.

Go Shuhan and Yang Guozhong straddle the horse at the front of the team, followed by the Ministers of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, but some of them ride in chariots.

Zhang Xuanyang pointed to where he came from, and smiled at Guo Ziyi and the others, "Ziyi, how are you generals? We are guests, not enemies."

Guo Ziyi let out a sigh of relief. It should be that Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong led the ministers of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty out of the city to greet them.It can be seen that there is no need to use weapons to take Chang'an and overthrow the Li and Tang Dynasty.

The news that Ge Shuhan, Yang Guozhong and others forced the palace in Chang'an city had already spread to the barracks yesterday.

Nan Jiyun smiled lightly and said, "My lord, it seems that the ones who came were Marshal Ge Shu and Prime Minister Yang! There are also... quite a few adults from the imperial court!"

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, but remained silent.

Ge Shuhan and others came to the front, dismounted from their horses, and lined up in two rows, headed by Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong, with Wen on the left and Wu on the right, with respectful smiles on their faces, striding towards Zhang Xuan.

Tens of thousands of soldiers lined up on the hatchback, leaving only an official road in the middle.The attention of all the people and the murderous aura brought great pressure to these former courtiers of the Tang Dynasty.Of course, Ge Shuhan was indifferent, because he was a veteran general in the army, and he was used to such big scenes where tens of thousands of soldiers formed an army to meet the enemy.

But most of the courtiers were uneasy, and their legs were a little weak.

Especially Gongsun Liang and other people who were enemies of Zhang Xuan in the past are even more anxious at the moment.However, the overthrow of the Li and Tang Dynasty was a foregone conclusion. They still had a way to survive if they surrendered to Zhang Xuan. If they resisted to the end, they could only die.

Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong approached, and they subconsciously looked up at Zhang Xuan who was smiling calmly.

Ge Shuhan was full of emotion in his heart. The "yellow-haired boy" and the young scholar Zhang Xuan in his eyes had grown into an awe-inspiring and inviolable overlord of the world.He waved his fingers to reprimand Fang Qiu, and regarded the world's powerful and powerful as dung.In just a few years, the status of the two of them has been very different, and today they have to worship him as the main one. This huge contrast makes Ge Shuhan's mind agitated and it is difficult to control himself.

But Yang Guozhong was slightly jealous in his heart.What he couldn't do, Zhang Xuan did, and what he didn't dare to do, Zhang Xuan also did.This young junior who is almost omnipotent has now passed over his head and trampled him under his feet.

But Yang Guozhong is a generation of traitors, hooligans, able to bend and stretch, big and small, he quickly accepted the reality and adjusted his mentality.

Seeing that Ge Shuhan was still a little "scared", he gave a dry cough.

Ge Shuhan suddenly came back to his senses, exchanged a glance with Yang Guozhong, and the two knelt down on one knee, "Sir Yang Guozhong, Ge Shuhan, welcome the lord to enter the city!"

As soon as the two of them knelt down, hundreds of courtiers behind them also knelt down and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, please come to Chang'an!"

"Long live my lord, long live!"

Zhang Xuan did not support Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong, but took a step back, staring at the two and the officials, listening to the crowd's shouts of long live, with a solemn expression.

Guo Ziyi and other generals also led the soldiers in the formation to bow down on one knee and shouted in unison, "Long live my lord, long live!"

Above the wilderness, the army soldiers and courtiers kneeling on the ground could not be seen at a glance, and the sound of the mountain shouting long live shook the sky and the earth.Standing alone on the spot, Zhang Xuan looked around at the courtiers and generals kneeling beside him, and couldn't help feeling a strange feeling of being overwhelmed by the heights.

Although the enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, Emperor Li Tang has not really abdicated, and Zhang Xuan's people have not entered Chang'an, but from this moment on, Zhang Xuan has already occupied the world and has become the hero who opened up a new dynasty.

Zhang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hands emptyly, and said loudly, "Everyone, please rise up, there is no need to be polite!"

Zhang Xuan took a step forward, helped Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong up, and said with a loud smile, "Master Ge Shu, Prime Minister Yang, there is no need to do this, please get up—come into the big tent to talk."

Ge Shuhan smiled and said loudly, "Your Majesty is coming to Chang'an without further ado. Please, Your Majesty, ride on the Luan and be escorted by us, and return to Chang'an to accept the imperial edict of Tang Emperor's abdication."

Yang Guozhong also eagerly said, "My lord, please drive! The soldiers and civilians in Chang'an are eagerly looking forward to the lord Luan driving into the city!"

All the ministers bowed down again and shouted loudly, "My lord, please drive!"

Zhang Xuan looked up at the guard of honor belonging to the emperor, and the hundreds of maids, eunuchs, and palace guards waiting on both sides of Luanjia, smiled, and waved his hands, "There is no need for Luanjia for the time being. Ziyi, Under the order, the whole army is there, immediately break out of the camp and march into Chang'an!"

Gongsun Liang and Pei Mian, the two former princeling elites, stood behind Ge Shuhan and Yang Guozhong with their heads bowed in trepidation. Zhang Xuan glanced at them, and suddenly said with a loud smile, "Gongsun Shangshu, Mr. Pei, farewell to Chang'an!" , It's been more than a year. Are you two adults safe?"

Gongsun Liang and Pei Mian were excited, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground in fear, and said in a trembling voice, "My lord, Gongsun Liang and Pei Mian, pay homage to the lord."

How can Zhang Xuan not know the uneasiness and anxiety deep in the two of them, you know, the two of them used to slander Li Heng and frame themselves.

But the world has not been completely settled. Even if the world is settled, Zhang Xuan still has to rely on someone to act for him in state affairs and maintain the operation of the court. He must take over all the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty, including the middle and lower levels of the various ministries and institutions of the court. Officials and even servants.As long as these people can really know the time and do things well, Zhang Xuan will definitely not pursue the right and wrong of the past.

The so-called butt decides the head.Standing in the current position, Zhang Xuan considered more long-term.

Zhang Xuan smiled, took a step forward, and leaned over to help Gongsun Liang and Pei Mian up, reassuring them.

Within the gate.Accompanied by two maids, Tian Kexin stood quietly in a corner of the camp, looking at the situation in this room, her heart was also excited and joyful.She is not happy that Zhang Xuan has taken control of the world, but is happy that she will have the opportunity to make contributions.

After staying by Zhang Xuan's side for so long, Tian Kexin has a certain understanding of Zhang Xuan's personality and work style.She could feel that Zhang Xuan did not have the deep-rooted male chauvinism of Tang people nowadays, and he could truly treat women equally.

Just like what Zhang Xuan said to her before, if she has the real ability, she is indeed a talent for governing the country and the army. He doesn't mind canonizing a female official who can enter and leave the court on an equal footing with men. For her, you can even make it into the hall.

The so-called "there is no distinction between north and south, regardless of men, women, young or old, or even Hu Han, all people in the world have a lofty mission to strive for the prosperity of the country", this is Zhang Xuan's original words.

"Let's go, let's pay the bill, pack up immediately, and prepare to enter Chang'an with the lord!" Tian Kexin waved her hand excitedly.

The two maids quickly followed each other, and the three women walked towards Tian Kexin's tent together.As he was walking, there was another long live sound like a mountain roar and a tsunami. Tian Kexin let out a long breath, and his eyes shone with a strange brilliance.
