Conquer the World

Chapter 201 New Year's Eve Banquet

The fighting took place all night. When the sun rose from the eastern horizon and climbed over the Wolf Mountain, the fighting finally stopped, and the victorious Sui army soldiers began to clean the battlefield and count the casualties.Before the war, no one expected that this would be such a brilliant and hearty victory.

At least three hundred captives searched for the body of Mandulatu's father and son on the battlefield under the guard of the Sui Army. From the captive's confession, the Suijun generals finally understood why Mandulatu took all The troops rushed in.You know, this is not a decision that a qualified commander should make, but he is a qualified father.

In the end, Mandu Latu was found in a pile of corpses. It seems that these loyal personal soldiers were planning to take the lord's body back, but they failed to break through the heavy siege.The density of bodies in this small area is staggering, not only the bodies of the Mongolian Yuan people, but also a large number of Sui army soldiers.

This shows that at the last moment, this Mandu Latu's personal troops exploded into a very strong fighting force.With less battles and more battles, the number of Sui troops killed was almost equal to their losses.At this moment of desperation, the power of human eruptions is difficult to estimate.At the last moment of their life, they may have no idea of ​​victory or defeat, only the idea of ​​bringing the flag master's body home.

Shortly after finding Manduratu's body, the captives found Mandutl, who was almost deflated by the war horse.The young Mengyuan warrior could not see much injuries, and there were twenty feather arrows drawn from his body.His eyes were not closed, and he looked dead.

Perhaps before he died, it was the moment when he finally saw hope.

The father's cry rang out in the distance, whether Mandu Tuler was an adult or not. At that time, his dependence on his father must have been extremely strong.

But this is war, family is certainly valuable, and death is the main theme.

Yang Kai, the king of Asahi, looked at Mandu Latu's body in a daze, and then he walked to the bodies of the Sui Army who finally stopped Meng Yuan from destroying his soldiers, and solemnly performed a military salute.At this moment, no matter what other people were thinking, they followed Yang Kai to salute.

The main army of the Mandu Banner was resolved in the First World War. This was the most glorious victory since the Sui Dynasty entered the army.Although it also pays a great price, but its significance will definitely leave a heavy stroke in the history book.

In addition to eliminating the main force of the enemy, the biggest gain is not less than 30,000 horses.For Sui Jun this is a huge and exciting asset. Sui Jun has never owned this number of horses.There is no doubt that in a short period of time, Sui Jun will have a strong Qingqi team.

Despite the lack of horses in the Sui Dynasty, when the soldiers of the various guards were training on weekdays, some people with outstanding physical qualities were specially allocated to take turns to train riding and archery with few horses.These people can easily control the war horses. Although they are far from being as flexible as Meng Yuan people, they will soon adapt to their new identities.

Because of these more than 30,000 horses, the generals of the Sui Army almost all turned red.They started arguing before the battlefield was cleaned up. Everyone hoped to get more horses.When the argument did not satisfy everyone, they gave the decision to the army commander, Yang Kai, Xujun, who had been forgotten.

"I intend to invite Your Majesty to take these 30,000 horses out of 20,000 horses, form a pure cavalry team, and give it to a suitable person to lead. The rest is about 16,000 horses, with an average score To the generals of the guards. Although it is not enough to satisfy you, at least it can increase the combat strength of the army and increase the number of scouts. "

The commander-in-chief said that even if someone was dissatisfied, he could not refute anything.

After calming down, people began to discuss how to form the first cavalry in the true meaning of this great Sui.Some people proposed to select excellent soldiers from the various guards to form, but the average number of 5,000 men per guard made the generals unwilling.The soldiers who were transferred out were all good soldiers, and even if the same number was added back, they felt that they had suffered a loss.

In the end, Yang Kai, the king of Xu County, sent troops to escort 20,000 horses back to Fan Gu, and handed over to the logistics and civil servants to manage.One step ahead of these war horses was the messenger who reported to Chang'an City. They put on their red cloaks and put on new clothes, and rushed to the Imperial Capital on the war horses of the Mongolian people.Although they are not as fast as the Flying Pigeon Biography, His Majesty is more willing to hear someone tell the story of the victory.

"You can't slack down because you won."

When Asahi King Yang Kai summoned the generals of the Four Guards, he said: "The main force of the Mandu Banner has been wiped out, and the number of enemies who have fled will not exceed 5,000. But in a short time, these 5,000 people will reopen Integrate and select a new general to command. If you wait for them to organize herders and distribute weapons and armor, it will be difficult for us to control the entire Mandu flag as soon as possible. "

"and so……"

Yang Kai paused and said: "I decided to temporarily gather the horses assigned to the guards and give them to the general Li Yuanshan. He took the Qingqi and his heavy riding to win the chase, and must not breathe for the Manduqi people. Opportunity. To settle the final rebellion in the fastest time, then the army immediately westbound to lay defenses on the western border of Mandu Banner. The matter entrusted to us by Your Majesty has been done for a little more than a half ... The next step is to maintain Counterattack, must not let Meng Ge's reinforcements set foot on this pasture again! "

New Year's Eve

Just as the Sui army broke through Duratu on the northwestern prairie, the annual banquet was being held in the Taiji Palace of Chang'an City.Every year on New Year's Eve, the emperor feasted on the masses.They will also invite some respectable old people from Chang'an City to let them sit next to the emperor and celebrate the coming of the new year together.

The great Sui respected filial piety. Although the invited elders have ordinary status, they will receive a very grand courtesy and respect this evening.This is an example of His Majesty's call to the people of the world to observe filial piety, so the old people can enjoy such honors as the emperor toasting himself.

In addition to these old people, those old ministers who have aged but have not left Chang'an City will also return to Tai Chi Palace and enjoy the respect of people.On the first day of the Chinese New Year, the emperor will wear the grandest uniform, take the harem and courtiers to the ancestral temple, and then go to the Ming altar to pray for the people.But tonight, there is no need for the emperor to put on that heavy and gorgeous clothes, he seems more easy-going and natural.

As the first place to enter the Yanwu Academy, Fang Jie naturally had the opportunity to participate in this feast.But because they have no official positions and are the youngest, they are arranged outside according to the rules.But this also fits Fang Jie's mind, he doesn't like the kind of hypocrisy of pushing the cup between the gifts.

He is a lazy man, in some ways.

Zhuo Buyi also has no official position, and he has no friendship with courtiers.Therefore, he also sat with the students of Yanwu Academy. Of course, this was his own choice, but even so, his clothes were particularly striking among the crowd of Jinyi and Huafu.The students at this table knew no one other than Fang Jie, so they were a little surprised at how the guy in common clothes, who was not old, got in.

Zhuo Buyi was naturally too lazy to ignore the doubtful eyes cast by the students, and he would not even appear on such occasions if he could quit.

"Not fit?"

He asked Fang Jie.

Fang Jie smiled and nodded and whispered: "It's not as good as me to see you."

Zhuo Buyi yelled and poured himself a glass of wine and tasted a bite: "Your Majesty will give me a seat every year. But this occasion is obviously not suitable for me to appear, not that I am not fit here."

"Sour"

Fang Xie smiled and said: "Although you are wearing common clothes, if you reveal your identity, half of the people present will be in awe of you, and the other half will think about how to have a good relationship with you."

Zhuo Buyi sighed: "This is the trouble. I'm really afraid of His Majesty's sudden whim. He pointed to my nose in front of the civil and military officials and said, this guy! It's the number one hitman in the Ouchi Guard!"

"The number one hitman ..."

Fang Jie couldn't help laughing: "This title is really appropriate."

Zhuo Buyi said: "You still have to think about how to deal with it. Your majesty will make you stand up in front of everyone and say something. Everyone here is full of Chinese. If you don't speak well, be careful. Irony. Anyway, it's also an excellent five in the liberal arts, and you can't show your timidity without a mouth. "

"Thousands of people don't wear horses, but when they sing praises, they pick up flowers and chants."

Fang Xie stuffed a piece of cooked meat into his mouth, and he was very uncommon.As the only female student among the ten martial arts students in Yanwu Academy, Ma Lilian secretly glanced at the solution sitting opposite.She hasn't recovered from the grief of losing her friends, so she is somewhat repulsive of this celebration.

The students who were killed in the Yanwu Academy knew about it one after another, but they obviously could not be mentioned in the celebration of the welcome ceremony.Ma Lilian always felt that there was something wrong with Fang Jie sitting opposite. It was not until the emperor sent him to call him. When he stood up, Ma Lilian realized that Fang Jie was not wearing a dress, but a war scout that was surrounded by the army.Compared with other people, it seems nondescript.

Fang Xie, who walked in front of the emperor, performed a meticulous salute, and then stood up. On behalf of the students of Yanwu Academy, he congratulated the Majesty and the Queen on the Spring Festival. It was perfect.Apart from the wrong clothes, there is nothing wrong.

When the emperor asked him to say a few words in front of the courtiers, Fang Jie straightened himself.

The other party's extreme disgusted Princess Yang Wanyi stared at him fiercely, wishing that he would be ugly in front of Manchao Wenwu.When she saw that Fang Jie was actually wearing a military uniform, she immediately thought of the three words Tubaozi.

"According to the truth, I should make a prosperous article."

Fang Xie, who stood in front of everyone, said with a smile: "I thought about it for a long time before coming. Do I have to wear a grand dress to the banquet, but after hesitating, I denied it, for three reasons ..."

"First, it's a hindrance to eat in a gown with big sleeves."

As soon as this was finished, there was a burst of laughter, and there was no lack of sarcasm.

Fang Xie ignored it and continued: "Second, I am a student of Yanwu Academy. I ca n’t live without the word Wu. It is well-known that the people of Yanwu Academy will kill the enemy in the army for national merit. It seems that military clothing is the most solemn costume to pay tribute to His Majesty. "

"third……"

Fang Jie's eyes swept across the crowd and said slowly: "I am a soldier of the frontier from Fan Gu, a border city. Right now, the 700,000 army of the imperial army expeditioned the Mongolian barbarians west of Fan Gu, because those damn barbarians The massacre of two thousand people and eight hundred frontiers in Fan Gucheng! I ... is the only one still alive, but this life makes me blame, because at the last moment I did not stand in the same robe with a weapon He did n’t die with them. Now the army of Da Sui is scrubbing the grassland to avenge my former robes. I ca n’t fight to kill the enemy, but I can put on the frontier ’s livery to cheer the soldiers! ”

"I'm a rough man."

Fang Jie said one by one: "But whether before entering the Yanwu Academy or after leaving the Yanwu Academy, I am a soldier of the Great Sui! Now, I dare to replace those remotely facing the Chang'an City on the prairie west of Fan Gu Soldiers saluting for your majesty, respect your majesty and honor all adults with a glass of wine! "

Carrying the solution of the wine glass, the heart slightly fluctuated: "May the great Sui world, Yongchang forever. May the great Sui master, return to the triumphant. For your majesty's life!"

"Life for the people!"

The emperor stood up and raised his glass solemnly.

Everyone was stunned, no one thought that Fang Jie would actually say such a thing.And when Her Royal Highness Princess Sui looked at Fang Jie, he suddenly felt that he was pleasing to the eye.
