Chapter 235: Mentor

Gao Huaiyuan nodded slightly, expressing his satisfaction, it was already good for the Zhenjiang Mansion army to have this kind of performance, but he couldn't demand them with his requirements for the army in front of the palace, so he took the stage and loudly ordered these soldiers to stand up and excuse themselves, and made a speech that he had already prepared. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Gao Huaiyuan has long been accustomed to speaking among the ten thousand armies, and his speech is very inflammatory, crude but not vulgar, concise and to the point, and very affinity and inciting to the officers and men.

In his speech, Gao Huaiyuan vigorously stated Li Quan's rebellious behavior in the past few years, as well as his harm to the local people in Jingdong, as well as the attack on the Huaidong Song Realm, and vigorously encouraged the soldiers to serve the country.

After listening to Gao Huaiyuan's agitation, a burst of cheers like rolling thunder immediately sounded on the school field, and the soldiers and generals of the Zhenjiang Prefecture Metropolitan Division were suddenly excited by Gao Huaiyuan's enthusiasm, and shouted in unison.

Only after the cheers of the soldiers calmed down, Gao Huaiyuan then said loudly: You are the brave army of Zhenjiang Mansion, you are the predecessor of Marshal Han that year, and you are also the commander of General Bi that year. The official doesn't dare to say anything else, but the official dares to say that I am a person with clear rewards and punishments, and a person who dares to move forward bravely with his life before the battle, and the official will never treat you badly, but if someone disobeys the military order and is afraid to avoid the battle, everyone come and see!

Saying that, Gao Huaiyuan choked, and pulled out his Liuyun scimitar that he was wearing at his waist, only to see the knife flash, and a standing wood with the thickness of a sea bowl on the high platform was cut into two pieces by him in response, and the broken wood immediately fell off the high platform, stirring up a cloud of dust on the ground.

Those who dare to disobey military orders, please take this wood as a warning, and this official will not tolerate murder! Gao Huaiyuan shouted.

The 20,000 troops standing on the school field were immediately shocked by Gao Huaiyuan's hand, and many people secretly smacked their tongues, and their hearts were regarded as seeing the power of this newly promoted General Gao today, such a giant tree was like a toothpick under his knife, one knife and two sections, it seemed that he was working under him, and it was definitely not possible to play tricks.

After Gao Huaiyuan said that, he put the knife into the sheath, and then ordered Luo Zhuo to start performing martial arts.

Luo Zhuo didn't dare to slack off, took the stage and waved the flag and began to mobilize soldiers and horses to drill on the colonel's field, first in formation, then in a long-range formation with crossbowmen, and then in a formation to attack.

And these generals who accompanied Gao Huaiyuan out of Beijing also watched carefully, some nodded secretly, some people showed a slight look of disdain at the corner of their mouths, and some people shook their heads and smiled bitterly, but on the whole, there was still more praise than contempt, the performance of the army of Zhenjiang Mansion, if it was placed in the past, was much stronger than that of the army in front of the palace, but now let the generals in front of the palace come to see their performance, but they don't take it very seriously.

Luo Zhuo worked very hard to mobilize the armies to carry out various drills, and the officers and soldiers in the army also knew that today was the time when they showed their faces, and they couldn't drop the chain at this time, otherwise, they would be finished in this life, so they all worked very hard, and they showed their best skills on the school field.

When Luo Zhuo saw that the sky was getting dark, he waved his flag and collected his troops, and after the armies regrouped and lined up, Gao Huaiyuan clapped his hands with a smile.

Very good! Looking at the performance of your brothers today, Gao is also relieved! Zhenjiang Mansion is worthy of being a heavy soldier in Suojiang, and General Luo is also worthy of being Suojiang Shihu, your performance is quite good! Although Gao Huaiyuan saw that the elite level of the Zhenjiang Mansion army was not as good as that of the army in front of the palace that he personally supervised, he could also use it in battle if he could have this performance, at least it would not collapse at the touch of a button, and it would be no problem for them to fight.

After Luo Zhuo watched the end of the martial arts, he ordered the troops to return to the camp, accompanied Gao Huaiyuan to pace on the school field, and said to Gao Huaiyuan triumphantly: I don't know if the captain is satisfied with these soldiers and horses under the command of the lower officials? But I don't know what about the brothers in front of the palace?

Gao Huaiyuan looked at Luo Zhuo's expression and knew that he was a little arrogant, so he smiled and said: Very good! The performance of the army of Zhenjiang Mansion exceeded the expectations of the official, and it was even better than the official expected, but with all due respect, there is still a little distance between the army of Zhenjiang Mansion and the army of the former division of the palace, especially compared with the holy army of the former division of the palace, there is still a big gap, and General Luo still needs to work hard!

Gao Huaiyuan was not polite, and directly replied to Luo Zhuo, this sentence hit Luo Zhuo not lightly, he claimed to be a capable person among the Song generals, thinking that Gao Huaiyuan would give him a very high evaluation after seeing the drills of the soldiers and horses under his command, but he didn't expect that in Gao Huaiyuan's eyes, he was not as good as the old soldiers in front of the palace, and he was suddenly a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he could only nod his head awkwardly, and he was a little dissatisfied in his heart.

Gao Huaiyuan saw what Luo Zhuo was thinking at a glance, knowing that a general like him had some skills, so he would naturally be arrogant, and he couldn't hear that others were better than him, so he must be full of unconvincing in his heart, so he laughed and smiled at Luo Zhuo: Gao knew that General Luo was unconvinced, and felt that Gao must be biased towards the army in front of the palace!

Luo Zhuo was taken aback, he suddenly remembered that Gao Huaiyuan was still holding the position of the palace marshal, and the front division of the palace was all under his command, he boasted about the front division of the palace, how could he compete with him? So he hurriedly bowed his head and said: The lower officials don't dare, the front of the palace is the soldiers and horses under the command of the Tai Lieutenant, and the ability of the Tai Lieutenant must be extraordinary, how dare the Xia Guan slander!

Might as well! Might as well be! Hehe! In fact, it is not because the front division of the palace is under the command of this official, and the official is partial to them, but the front division of the palace is no longer the old soldiers of the year, when the front division of the palace was in charge of Lord Xia, it was indeed a little greedy for pleasure, but for more than a year, the front division of the palace has already swept away the decline and regained its strength!

General Luo don't worry, for the generals to be a little arrogant, only not to admit defeat, in order to inspire his subordinates, unremitting training, always maintain the morale of the army, not to be afraid of disobedience, tomorrow after the arrival of the loyal army, we will be merged, three days later set off to cross the river to the north.

Before that, we still have time to compete, and when the time comes, even the loyal army will be put together, let's see which army is the most brave? Gao Huaiyuan said to Luo Zhuo with a smile.

Luo Zhuo was not very convinced in his heart, his heart was just like this, when the time comes, everyone is a mule or a horse to come out and see, how powerful are the armies of your palace front division, everyone will know if they are put together to compete and compete, the cowhide is not blown, I don't believe that my Zhenjiang Mansion is the commander of the army, not the opponent of your palace front division army, and what is the way of the loyal army? It's just a private placement army, but I also want to compare it with the cantonment army of our people, and let them also see the majesty of our Zhenjiang Metropolitan Army!

But he thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say so, so he quickly bowed his head and said: What the captain said is reasonable, and the subordinate is willing to listen to the orders of the adults!

Huang Yan stood on the bow of a large warship in a majestic military uniform, looking at the pier that gradually appeared on the riverbank, and the sailors of the navy told him that the Zhenjiang Mansion had arrived.

When the ship got closer and closer to the wharf, Huang Yan's eyes were sharp, and he saw the flag on the wharf at a glance, and there were a lot of greeting personnel standing on it, although a group of people in the center were far away, but it could be seen from the armor that it was a group of generals, and a general in the center was tall and conspicuous, and Huang Yan's heart couldn't help beating violently.

Years ago, Huang Yan heard about the military advice in Beijing in Zaoyang, and after learning that the military advice was successful, Huang Yan was so happy that he somersaulted a few times in his big tent, he knew that their brother's good days were coming, at least there was no need to be aggrieved in Zaoyang, a corner of the place, sure enough, less than a month after the military advice, he received an order to prepare for war, so that he was ready to lead the army to Zhenjiang Mansion to participate in the conquest of Li Quan after the year.

Most people don't understand this order of the imperial court, because dealing with Li Quan, it should be a matter of the Zhenjiang, Jiankang, and Chizhou garrisons, and I don't know why the imperial court actually ordered them to go to the private equity army guarding the middle reaches of the Yangtze River this time, so there was a lot of discussion in the army.

Of course, Huang Yan had a way to explain this matter, and spread the news in the army, saying that the imperial court now needed to inspect the combat strength of the new army, so they were selected to go to the loyal army, and the current central privy envoy of the court was a person from Daye, so such a good thing would fall on their loyal army, so this matter was explained.

But Meng Heng, who is currently in charge of Ezhou, knows this matter well, and knows that Gao Huaiyuan wants Huang Yan to go into battle to accumulate experience, and secretly has the purpose of promoting Huang Yan, but he naturally won't say it thoroughly, they are sworn brothers, Meng Heng can't wait for Huang Yan to go one step further and make the official bigger!

Therefore, after receiving the imperial decree from the court, Meng Heng personally rushed to Zaoyang to help Huang Yan prepare his troops and horses, select the elite soldiers of the Zhongshun army to prepare for the battle, and ordered the Chuzhou Metropolitan Commander to prepare troop transport ships at the same time, ready to transfer the Zhongshun army to Zhenjiang Mansion at any time.

Just after the New Year, they received an edict from the Beijing Division, so Huang Yan did not dare to delay for a moment, immediately lit up the soldiers and horses, rushed to Huangzhou to board the ship, all the way down the river, and arrived at Zhenjiang Mansion in a few days.

For this expedition, many of Huang Yan's generals are gearing up one by one, just waiting for the battle to show the majesty of the loyal Shun army, so many years have passed, when Gao Huaiyuan left Huang Yan Those young people from Crouching Tiger Village, one by one have grown into young generals, in the loyal Shun army and Chuzhou have a firm foothold in the army, the worst is already a ready general, the higher ones have already done the position of commander, and now I heard that Gao Huaiyuan has a move, so that they serve in front of the army, each is very excited, and the heart has passed for so many years, They finally had the opportunity to return to Gao Huaiyuan's command again, and they could see their master again, so they were all very happy.
