It took Li Liangzuo more than ten days to visit the entire Ziwei Palace, and Li Liangzuo couldn't sit still after just staying in Ziwei Palace for more than half a month, and now Guanzhong has ushered in the first heavy snow of the year, Li Liangzuo also changed into a robe, and on this day in the imperial study of Ziwei Palace, Li Liangzuo summoned Li Wu, Li Yanze, An Qinggui, Qin Hu and others.
Li Liangzuo said to everyone: "I have no other reason to call you here today, that is, to tell you that I am going to do a surprise inspection, and now I will go to the Lantian camp with you to see what kind of training your soldiers have become."
"The last general, I respectfully ask Your Majesty to review" Leaving from the east gate of Ziwei Palace, it is not far from the Lantian camp, it only took less than two hours for Li Liangzuo to arrive, although the Lantian camp is a military camp, but it is a city wall, strictly speaking, this is a military town, tens of thousands of troops are stationed in the camp, and it is not a problem for the entire military camp to be stationed at the same time at the most.
Li Liangzuo said with a smile on his face: "Little brother, I am passing by, and I want to go in and get a bowl of water to drink."
"No one is allowed to enter or leave the barracks at will."
The lieutenant said strictly.
"But little brother, I'm thirsty, I can't do it, okay?"
The captain said in a calm tone: "Uncle, you really can't go in, if I let you in today, I, you and the brothers guarding the door will be beheaded, so there is a pavilion on the way you come, you go there and wait, and I will send someone to bring water to you in a while." ” "Okay, then, there's Brother Lao."
After Li Liangzuo finished speaking, he walked to the pavilion not far away, and as soon as he arrived at the pavilion, he met Li Wu and they came from behind.
Li Wu walked up to Li Liangzuo and said, "Father, your horse is too fast, we can't catch up."
"Order everyone to dismount and rest here."
"Father, there is the Lantian camp in front of us, or let's go into the city to rest."
"I said to rest here, didn't you hear," Li Liangzuo said with a serious face.
"Yes, the retainer is commanded."
Li Wu immediately ordered: "Everyone dismount and rest." ” Li Liangzuo sat down in the pavilion and rested for a while, when he saw a soldier running over with a gourd, and when he saw the person standing next to Li Liangzuo, the soldier said in a panic: "This is the water that the captain of my family asked the little one to send." ” "There's Brother Lao" "The little one quits."
The soldier saluted.
Li Liangzuo took a few sips of water and said, "This water is really sweet and delicious."
After Li Liangzuo finished speaking, he put the water hyacinth on his back, rode his war horse and walked towards the Lantian camp, at this time Li Wu was following Li Liangzuo's side, and the captain recognized Li Wu at a glance, and saluted Li Wu and said, "Lord Wang, please show the token." ” Li Wu handed the token he was carrying to the captain, and after verification, the captain returned it to Li Wu, and Li Liangzuo smiled and said to the captain: "Good boy, just right, thank you for the water."
After saying that, he threw the water hyacinth to the captain.
As a military town, each gate of the Lantian camp has an urn city, entering the city Li Liangzuo can clearly hear the sound of shouting and killing, Li Liangzuo followed the sound directly to the school, although it is winter, but there are still hundreds of men in the shirtless knife method, the knife they use is not an ordinary knife but a Mo knife, the Xia army also has its own Mo knife team, they are specially prepared for the cavalry of the Song army.
"Okay."
Li Liangzuo said happily; "Yes, at first glance, this is the courage of the brave, the essence of the essence."
"Father, this is only part of it, to the elite of such foot soldiers, the sons have trained a total of more than 5,000 people, they can use the Mo sword against the cavalry, and at the same time, they can also be lightly armed as the first troops to attack the city."
Li Wu introduced to Li Liangzuo.
"Order, drum and gather troops."
Li Liangzuo ordered.
"Knock, knock, knock" The sound of war drums spread throughout the entire Lantian camp, when the drums sounded, the city gates of the entire Lantian camp were all closed, all the non-commissioned officers and officers put on neat armor and ran towards the school field, tens of thousands of troops all completed the assembly in two quarters of an hour, this speed is already quite fast, after all, they still have to put on armor and take weapons, and they have to line up in formation, it is a very difficult thing to put on armor, and two people must work together.
After all the armies had been assembled, Li Liangzuo said, "Most of you have seen me for the first time, and some have seen me; I know that there is a popular saying in the army, and those who are soldiers are all for the emperor; But today I tell you that you are not actually working for me, but also for yourself, because this world is not mine's alone, but also yours, because you and your family are all subjects of the Great Xia Empire, if one day the enemy army invades the Great Xia Kingdom, do you think your relatives will be spared They have to protect the suffering of the war, so you must remember that you are not only defending me, but also your family; In our Xia army, I treat everyone equally, whether it is officers or non-commissioned officers, those who have meritorious service will be rewarded, and those who have done so will be punished; No matter who you were before, from the moment you were included in the Great Xia Empire, you are Xia people, if you want to be a human being and have a title, and you can drink wine, eat meat, and play with women every day, then you have to go to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions, and every battle you fight is not only for the Great Xia Kingdom, but also for yourself."
Li Liangzuo's words greatly boosted the morale of the army, and at the same time let these soldiers know that the purpose of their war, in this troubled world, if you want to protect your family, you have to make others ruined, this is a world of the jungle, the survival of the fittest, the survival of the strong is the law of nature, no one can change it.
Li Liangzuo stayed in the Lantian camp for one night, and left with Li Wu and others the next day, after leaving the Lantian camp, Li Liangzuo and his party went to the southeast, aiming at Wuguan; The reason why he went to Wuguan instead of Tongguan, Li Liangzuo actually had his own considerations, if he went to Tongguan, Li Liangzuo could see the Hangu Pass built by the Great Song Dynasty at most, the mountains in that place were steep or not, in fact, they were basically the same, and the Xia army would have to pay a very heavy price when breaking through Hangu Pass.
And Wuguan is different, after going out of Wuguan, the Xia army can point directly at Jingxiang, the army into the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty, then the Song army in the north of the heavy troops lost its meaning, but Li Liangzuo came to Wuguan to see everything outside the pass, this plan basically disappeared, in order to prevent the Xia army from Wuguan out of the pass, the Great Song Dynasty can be said to have made a bloody investment, built a dense beacon tower outside Wuguan, and built a strong city fifty miles away from Wuguan, a considerable part of the soldiers and horses of the division road are stationed here.
"Father, this is only the first line of defense of the Great Song Dynasty, there are at least three lines of defense behind them, although the Great Wall has not been built, but a large number of military towns and fortresses have been built; If we break into the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty without breaking through these fortresses, we will become a lone army. ” The second is more presented, and friends with tickets have gone for a wave:
