Chapter 111

"General Gongsun, I have to admit that the soldiers of the Peerless Battalion are indeed slightly better than the Feixiong Army. The general's command is not only full of talents, but also has such elites. I really envy the other princes!"

Xu Rong gave a very pertinent answer. As a warrior on the battlefield, although he has not personally seen the battle of the Peerless Battalion, he still judged the gap from some details.

"Da Mao, although your military strength is average, you still have a unique vision. The Peerless Battalion is the elite of our Youzhou Army's elite. Currently there are only [-] of them, and they are above the minimum required military candidates.

The lord requested from the very beginning that every soldier selected for the Wushuang Battalion must reach the level of the Qin Army's Tie Ying warriors, who can fight the most elite cavalry when mounted, and the most elite infantry when dismounted.

Under the Peerless Battalion, the tiger and leopard cavalry are slightly inferior, and the best of them will replenish the consumption of the Peerless Battalion at any time to keep the Peerless Battalion at full strength. "

Li Cunxiao's words were still so blunt, but Xu Rong did not refute. Although such a straightforward temper was harsh, it was relatively easy to get along with, and it was always better to cheat.

An hour later, three hundred riders came to Yishui, rented more than a dozen large boats at the ferry, and then took everyone across the river.

"Mr. Zhicai, turn around and ask people to think about building a stone bridge on Yishui. This is the shortest road to Fanyang. It is not reliable to rely on these ferries alone.

After the stone bridge is built, it will be more convenient for the people of the two counties to come and go. This kind of thing that benefits the country and the people should be put on the agenda early. "

"Yes, my lord!"

Although he knew that Gongsun Yue built the stone bridge out of ulterior motives, but the obvious reasons were justified, and Xi Zhicai was happy to do something good for the people of the two counties.

After crossing Yishui, another hour later, Fan Yangcheng appeared in sight. It took less than two and a half hours to rush from Beiping to Fan Yang.

"Stop here!"

The defenders of the city gate reacted quickly, one by one as if they were facing an enemy. Although the leader was captured by the evil spirit released by the soldiers of the Wushuang Battalion, he still mustered up the courage to step forward and question him.

"Presumptuous, my lord's flag is here, keep your eyes open, and if you dare to block the way, you will lose your life!"

After the guard saw the flag clearly, he quickly stepped aside. This black water flag is famous in Youzhou, and everyone who heard it was frightened.

"Fei Leopard, don't frighten the brothers defending the city. After entering the city, slow down and march, and don't disturb the people in the city. Violators of the military law will do so!"

"Yes, my lord!"

The army slowly entered the city, and walked slowly towards the State Shepherd's Mansion. The people in the city looked at the soldiers of the Wushuang Battalion who were neat and tidy, and pointed and whispered to each other.

"Zai Xing, take the brothers to the side to rest, don't all stay here and attract the crowd to watch, Feihu, Feibao, you two go in with us."

"Yes, my lord!"

After submitting the invitation, the gate of the State Shepherd's Mansion opened quickly. Under the leadership of the butler, six people came to the main hall of the State Shepherd's Mansion. Besides Liu Yu and other old acquaintances, there was also a stranger.

"General Gongsun, you are finally here. The court envoy has been waiting here for several days. Please take a seat on the left."

"Grand Sima, the last general came here today for this matter. General Xu just arrived in Beiping yesterday and brought the latest news from the pass. You should listen to General Xu before discussing."

After everyone was seated, Xu Rong recounted the situation. Liu Yu and Duan Xun were quite emotional, and they were already in tears.

"The old minister is incompetent, let His Majesty be surrounded by tigers and wolves, how can he face the past emperors in the future, Your Majesty"

"Whoa! There are so many princes in the Guandong, but none of them is willing to send troops. Your Majesty, what face do you have to return to Chang'an to face the saint?"

With Liu Yu and Duan Xun taking the lead, more and more people were crying in the hall. Gongsun Yuezheng was amazed at their ability to cry as soon as they said it. When he was in a daze, the corner of his clothes was suddenly torn.

Seeing Chen Ping winking at himself, Gongsun Yue also hid his face and cried after realizing it, but it was a pity that he just howled dryly and couldn't shed a single tear.

"hiss"

Thinking that if there were no tears for a while, it would be inevitable that he would be too prominent among the crowd, so Gongsun Yue had no choice but to be cruel to himself, pinched the base of his thigh hard, and while taking a breath, the tears finally flowed out successfully.

Just when Gongsun was getting more and more worried that the tears would dry, the crying in the hall finally stopped slowly, and after deliberately showing the tears at the corners of his eyes, he lifted up his sleeves and wiped them off.

"General Gongsun, His Majesty is in deep danger at this time. It is the time when the General is loyal to the country. As long as the General can welcome the emperor back to Luoyang, His Majesty will definitely reward you a lot!"

Looking at Duan Xun's expectant eyes, Gongsun Yue's face showed a bit of bitterness, this time he did it out of courage, and tears naturally slipped from the corners of his eyes.

"Angel, I hope that His Majesty will return to Luoyang, but Youzhou has been fighting again and again, the soldiers under his command are exhausted, the soldiers are short of food and grass, and there are powerful enemies watching from outside. It is really impossible to send troops in a short time.

Besides, Tongguan is dangerous, Xiliang army has many generals, and the defense is very strict at this time. With only tens of thousands of troops under my command, even if all of them are exhausted, they will not be able to save His Majesty.

There are many factions in the Xiliang Army, and they are intriguing and disobedient. As long as there is no external threat, they will soon have internal strife. At that time, if they cooperate internally and externally, they will be able to win the battle!
At the end of the day, the general must prepare his troops vigorously and train an elite division as soon as possible. Once the time is right, he will send troops to welcome the emperor back to the east.

It's a pity that Jizhou is initially set up, and there is a serious shortage of food, grass, weapons and armor, and more support from Da Sima is needed.

After the angel returns to Chang'an, please report back to His Majesty, please bear the humiliation and bear the burden, and one day you will see the moonlight when the clouds open! "

Today's performance, although showing true feelings, was more of an act, seeing that the ending was as expected, Duan Xun's face was very ugly.

"General Gongsun, the king's salary is the worry of the king. Since you are a Han subject, and today's emperor is in deep danger, even if you use up all the soldiers in Youzhou, you should rescue the emperor from the wolf's den!"

Seeing Duan Xun's cub's expressionless expression, Gongsun Yue's face gradually darkened, and he turned to look at Liu Yu who was sitting in the main seat.

"Great Sima, when the angel first arrived in Youzhou, he didn't have a deep understanding of the difficult situation in Youzhou and Jizhou. Do you think the current Youzhou army has the strength to send troops to welcome the emperor back to the east?"

Seeing Gongsun Yue's eyes flickering coldly, Liu Yu opened his mouth, and it took a long time before he spat out two words with difficulty.

"No."

Seeing that Liu Yu was still cooperative, Gongsun Yue finally looked better. If he really insisted on going his own way, I wouldn't mind sending him to Chang'an to take up the post.

"Angel, you have also seen the situation. Even Da Sima thinks that he is temporarily unable to send troops, and the soldiers are overwhelming. When the time comes, Li Jue and Guo Si will take risks. If there is a mistake, none of us will be able to bear the consequences.

If the angel is loyal to the country, he should immediately return to the side of the emperor. After everything is safe, he can cooperate with the inside and outside to achieve success. Otherwise, if it fails, you and I will be sinners! "

 Thank you book friends for voting and rewarding, Yanyu will continue to work hard to update!
