Chapter 19 The Soldiers Passed Through Yongliang


On the official road from Tongguan to Chang'an, an army nearly one mile long marched steadily westward.

On the dry Guanzhong Plain, billowing dust rises.

This army included both cavalry and infantry.

It was the imperial army sent to Liangzhou to assist Luo Shang in entering Shu to quell the rebellion.

Now, they are less than ten miles away from Chang'an City.

Sima Yong, the king of Hejian who was stationed in Guanzhong, had already received the report.

He hesitated for a long time and finally decided to open the city gate to welcome the king's division sent by the imperial court.

Greeting Xia Yue and Chen Hui was Zhang Fang, Sima Yong's general.

This man is brave, good at fighting, but ruthless and extremely cruel.

Zhang Fang took five thousand carefully selected elites and lined up on both sides of the official road at the gate of Chang'an City to greet the "Master Wang".

This move was not Sima Yong's intention, but Zhang Fang's own intention.

This man who considers himself the best soldier in the world just wants to compare with the momentum of "Master Wang".

Each of his five thousand elites wore brand-new armor, and they even generally had heads inlaid with iron armor pieces.

During the Jin Dynasty, except for the imperial guards, no ordinary soldiers in any local army were equipped with helmets.

The weapons in his hands are also sharp, and the shields are like walls.

The cavalrymen dismounted from the war horses, all of which were strong Xiliang horses.

Zhang Fang himself also wore a bright suit of armor and a scarlet cloak on his back, standing majestically in the center of the pipe.

A cavalry coming from Juechen was none other than the scout cavalry from Guanzhong.

He jumped off his horse and reported to Zhang Fang: "Report, the Imperial Court's imperial army has arrived at the border of Chang'an, less than a mile away."

Zhang Fang said two words calmly: "Play music."

In the distance, dust is flying.

Soon, Zhang Fang saw the two generals leading the army.

He had met Chen Hui several times, but he didn't know Xia Yue.

Zhang Fang went up to greet them, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your hard work, two generals.

King Ling of Hejian is here to welcome the two great leaders to the city."

Xia Yue and Chen Hui jumped off their horses and said in return, "Thank you, General Zhang.

In fact, the King of Hejian and General don't have to be so polite to greet us.

We are just passing through Chang'an and will continue to Liangzhou to replenish some supplies."

Three They exchanged a few polite words with each other and headed towards the city amidst the sound of drums and music.

Zhang Fang took the opportunity to repeatedly look at the military appearance and equipment of the army brought by the other party.

He was quite surprised.

He couldn't help but think to himself that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world.

He wanted to overwhelm others' momentum, which only made him laugh.

When approaching Chang'an, Xia Yue ordered Tiefu Tu to be fully equipped.

In this era, it is almost impossible to see an organized cavalry unit equipped with man and horse equipment and sophisticated mail armor.

The Kaizi horses behind the Tiefu Tu are all well-armored, with bows on their backs and spears on their backs, and steel knives on their waists.

Looking at the infantry led by Chen Hui later, they are all wearing a strange shape of armor.

The helmet is made of a whole piece of metal, and the armor on the body is also a ring-shaped armor made of large pieces of metal. piece.

The sword and shield soldier's large shield is one and a half feet wide and four feet long.

Hanging from the waist is a short sword made of fine steel.

He holds a strange "short spear" about six feet long, and carries two more on his back.

In addition, there is also a kind of crossbow hanging on everyone's back, which is also very strange.

First of all, it looks extremely well-made, and secondly, there is a square box on the crossbow beam.

There seemed to be arrows hidden inside.

This is the equipment that Sima Yu used the workshop in the Acropolis to build for the thousand Forbidden Army.

It will also be the unified equipment for the camp troops outside the capital and the Forbidden Army infantry in the future.

Before departure, special training was conducted on the new equipment by the Tiewei instructors.

After the army entered Chang'an City, civilians gathered on both sides of the streets to watch this strange army.

Next to the street, in a luxurious restaurant, a pair of eyes watched the army for a long time.

The owner of these eyes is Sima Yong, the king of Hejian who travels in casual clothes.

He looked at it for a while, then withdrew his gaze, and drank a glass of wine.

However, the reality made him very disappointed.

Xia and Chen rested briefly in Chang'an for two days.

After replenishing the dry food they carried with them, they turned south from Chang'an and entered the Hanzhong Plain in Liangzhou via the Ziwu Valley.

The journey of these two thousand people from Luoyang to Hanzhong was enough to make half of the world tremble.

Everywhere they passed, the local officials, princes and princes looked at them sideways.

Since the founding of the Jin Dynasty, this is the first time that the Forbidden Army has been dispatched to assist local governments in suppressing rebellion, let alone such an elite force.

In Nanzheng, Hanzhong, Luo Shang, the governor of Liangzhou, welcomed the imperial army who helped him suppress the rebellion.

However, according to the meaning of the edict, Luo Shang could not directly command this army and could only request the assistance of this army in battle.

At the Jie Feng banquet, Luo Shang started talking more after a few glasses of wine.

He smiled and said to Xia and Chen: "Actually, Your Majesty, you don't need to worry about the chaos in Shu, and the two of you.

The rebel Zhao Guang doesn't have any great talents, but he dares to rebel against the imperial court and secede the state for himself.

The Shu people In fact, they are not convinced by him.

The exiles he relies on also have different ideas, and Yunzhi will be defeated sooner or later."

While several people were chatting in a few words, a soldier came in and stood next to Luo Shang, whispering a few words in his ear.

Chen Hui knew in his heart that on such an occasion, if the soldiers came in directly to report, there must be some major or urgent military situation.

Sure enough, Naluoshang said to the ordering soldier: "Now let me read it."

As he said this, he took a roll of blue paper from the ordering soldier.

Luo Shang unfolded the green paper, read it carefully, laughed loudly, and said to Xia and Chen, "As expected, Zhao Jin has already destroyed himself."

After that, he put the summary of the military situation on the paper.

The green paper was circulated to Xia Yue and Chen Hui.

After reading it, the two of them realized that such a bloody thing had happened inside Zhao Yun.

First, Zhao Guan killed Li Itch out of suspicion.

Then three of his close subordinates who held important positions got into a fight in Zhao Guang's mansion due to personal grudges.

One of them killed the other two in anger.

The two men's personal followers killed the man again.

Zhao Kuan lost three generals in an instant.

The Li family, who had turned against Zhao Kuan due to Li Chu's death, saw that he had lost three of their pillars and thought that the opportunity to dominate Bashu had come, so they took the opportunity to lead the refugee armed forces to attack and kill Zhao Kuan's tribes.

In the end, Zhao Guan was defeated.

Then Li Te, the leader of the Li family, passed Zhao Guang's head to Luoyang, and sent an envoy to Luoyang to express his merits to the court, saying that he had been coerced into assisting Zhao Guang before, and today he turned against Zhao Guang, killed him, and presented his head to the court. , hoping that he can protect Yizhou for the Holy Lord.

At this time, Li Te's messenger had just arrived in Hanzhong and reported to Luo Shang, the governor of Liangzhou.

Chen Hui asked: "So how is Luo Shijun going to reply to Li Te?"

Luo Shang was stunned when he heard his question.

He really hadn't thought about his next plan.

I could only deal with it and said: "I haven't thought about this carefully yet.

No, of course this should be the Holy One's decision."

Chen Hui shook his head and said: "Luoyang is far away from Nanzheng.

It will probably take more than a month to go back and forth.

It's hard to guarantee that something unexpected will happen after such a long time
