Chapter 218: Triumph Requires Ritual Second Update
The monthly pass list is really tight, do you still have a monthly pass? Is it better to add more than 20 votes?
"Second brother, second brother, what are you thinking?" Chen Defang's handsome face leaned over and asked with concern. Chen Dexing only found out at this time that he was holding a wine glass, and the wine was spilled on the table, and he was actually distracted at tonight's banquet. The senior generals of the Thunderbolt Navy on the stage with him all looked at him with a smile...... They all thought that Chen Dexing's mind was full of little princesses who had ascended to the country at this time!
Tonight's banquet was to celebrate Chen Dexing's upcoming marriage to the princess of Ascension - there was a good meal from top to bottom of the Perak Army, and the main officers gathered in Chen Dexing's Metropolitan Office for dinner. At present, the Perak Navy Army has 20,000 troops, and it is a double commander system, and the number of officers is quite large. This noodle almost caught up with the two celebration banquets after the victory of Nantuochang and the victory of Moshiling.
However, the excitement is lively, but the wine is not very rich, just a bunch of fish and meat plus the soju brewed in the army - just hot wine, not distilled spirit, Chen Dexing just knows this concept, he doesn't know how to brew it, and he doesn't have the time to make this thing.
Chen Dexing put down the wine glass and touched his beard: "I can't just go back to Lin'an casually, I have to have a triumphant ceremony!" ”
Kai...... Triumphal ceremonies? ”
Several characters at the same table looked at each other, and Chen Defang frowned slightly: "Second brother, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, now the court and Mongolia are negotiating peace, although it has not been finalized, but I heard that the hope is quite big, and many people in Lin'an have compared this peace to Shaoxing peace ......"
This was said tactfully, but Chen Dexing understood the voiceover. After the Shaoxing peace negotiations began, most of the Zhongxing generals such as Yue Fei and Han Shizhong lost their military power and became idlers, and soon after the peace agreement was reached, Song Gaozong killed Yue Fei! After that, the Southern Song Dynasty completely followed the old road of using literature to control martial arts, and the elite soldiers brought out by the generals of Zhongxing slowly decayed in the following decades.
"It's okay!" Chen Dexing waved his hand, "The official family is even willing to marry my single daughter, are you still reluctant to have a triumphant ceremony of heroic soldiers?" And this victory is not our Thunderbolt Army's family, Jia Xianggong and Lu Taiwei also have a part. Big brother, please go back to Lin'an first, tell Lord Sù and Wen Wenshan what I mean, and ask them to find a way to exercise one or two. I will personally go to Jiangling Mansion and tell Jia Xianggong that he will return to Lin'an soon. If there is a grand ceremony to pay tribute to His Majesty, the position in the DPRK and China can be consolidated in the future! ”
Whether Jia Yidao's position is consolidated or not has nothing to do with Chen Dexing, but Xian Jie's Majesty is the opportunity to make a name for himself in the Thunderbolt Navy Army and promote Han nationalism in Lin'an, how could Chen Dexing let it go? If he really robbed the princess this time and went to the north to open up the territory, the relationship with the Great Song Dynasty court would be stiff. At that time, it may not be easy to control Lin'an's propaganda, and this triumphal ceremony may be the last chance to make a name for yourself.
It would be ideal if this triumphal ceremony could be used to set off a whirlwind of nationalism in Lin'an.
As soon as Chen Dexing's opinion came out, several of the Thunderbolt Navy generals on the table all echoed with their eyebrows.
"That's right! It's time to spread the word! Otherwise, who knows the name of our Chen Jiajun? ”
"That's it! I have to let the people of Lin'an see that the Tartars are not invincible! Our Chen Jiajun not only defeated the 100,000 army of the Tartars, but also killed the Tartars' Meng Ke Khan! ”
"We also captured the Nine Tours of the Great Khan of the Tartars, and this time we will all carry them back to Lin'an! Show our majesty! ”
Chen Dexing swallowed the wine in the cup with a smile, his eyes turned, and he swept the face of his eldest brother, but what he saw was a sad face.
In his mind, now that the Great Song Dynasty is hiding the birds, it is best for the military ministers to clamp their tails and be officials, if they are blindly high-profile, they will be the first birds! Although his younger brother has the blue eyes of the princess, and when he goes back to Lin'an, he is the fast son-in-law of the official family, but it is not good to be too high-profile. After all, today's official family is very old, and if the dragon controls Bintian one day, there will be no one to cover him!
……
"The triumphal ceremony must be held! Do you want to do it...... How do I transfer troops into Lin'an City? ”
The banquet had ended, but Chen Dexing's study was brightly lit, and several high-level officials of the Fuxing Society, Monk Liu, Lu Hu, Gao Da, Huang Zhishen, Ren Yijiang, Liu Yang, Zhu Sijiu, Kong Yu, and Li Cuixian, who had sneaked back to Guangyang Island after leaving Jiangling, had all gathered here.
Chen Dexing knocked on the table and said all his true intentions.
"Publicizing our military prestige is only one of them, and the more important thing is to bring troops to Lin'an! Although the official family Xu is married, the heart of defense can never be without! In the army, there are 20,000 elites to protect him, and no one can hurt half a hair. If you enter the court empty, a will can take someone's life. Such a risk cannot be taken under any circumstances. So I have to take the soldiers to Lin'an! ”
To tell the truth, the credibility of the Great Song official family in this regard is really bad. Yue Fei in the past, and Yu Jue a few years ago have already relieved themselves of military power. But I still can't escape the storm pavilion and a glass of poisoned wine! Although Yue Fei said a little more, and Yu Jue was also a little more domineering in Sichuan, he ...... Chen Dexing seems to have more words than Yue Fei now, and he acts more domineering than Yu Jue, how can he send himself to Lin'an stupidly without defense?
Who the hell knows that what awaits him in Lin'an is the princess's mansion or Dali Temple!
Hearing that Chen Dexing was going to lead the troops to Lin'an, Land Rover suddenly became energetic, took a breath and said: "Big brother, when I was in Yangzhou, I heard that although there were tens of thousands of soldiers in Lin'an, they were all wine bags and rice bags...... As long as there are 3,000 elites, you can turn the sky of Lin'an upside down! ”
Gao Da also nodded: "Big brother, give 3,000 people to the evil tiger to accompany you, I will lock the Yangtze River with 35 warships, prevent the two Huai soldiers from crossing the river, and then let the second brother (Monk Liu) and Sijiu each bring 3,000 people to fight Jiankang and Zhenjiang." The splendid rivers and mountains in the south of the Yangtze River are in the hands of the big brother! With this foundation, it will not be difficult to restore the Central Plains! ”
Liu He frowned and thought: "20,000 people take Jiangnan...... Less is less, it's better to go to Lin'an with the whole group, the eldest brother will take 3,000 people to go to the canal, and our brothers will take the team to the sea! ”
Chen Dexing was very satisfied with the statements of several brothers—these brothers' brains were no longer the same unconsciously—and he smiled and nodded: "This can't be so...... Although there is no problem for 20,000 people to take Lin'an, what will happen after they are won? It is impossible for the hundreds of thousands of troops in Lianghuai, Jinghu, and Sichuan to remain indifferent. When the time comes, there will be a catastrophe, and maybe someone will lure the wolf into the house and invite the Mongols from the north to make it difficult for us! ”
His voice had already softened: "But the preparations for the Lin'an coup must be done!" Daoist, you come to be the military advisor of the Perak Navy, set up a staff office for you to manage, and select some of the most reliable students from the military academy to be staff officers...... The filing of the Lin'an coup d'état is the first task of the General Staff! ”
Ren Yijiang frowned: "Brother Qing, this Lin'an coup d'état...... What to do after the coup d'état? Do you want to blackmail the princes of the Son of Heaven? ”
"Possibly!" Chen Dexing smiled, "It's also possible to grab a handful and leave!" The sea and sky in the north are much easier to get than the sauce jar in Lin'an. ”
"Then make two plans?"
"Do four...... One is that I was arrested and taken to Dali Temple! One more is that I was killed! ”
Although such a thing is unlikely to happen, as a staff department, you should take into account all possibilities and not just think about good things.
Ren Yijiang frowned: "In that case...... It's hard for 3,000 people to take down Lin'an City! Do you want to bring more soldiers? ”
Chen Dexing shook his head: "Up to 3,000 ...... Nominally, it can only be reported at 2500, and no more will be brought into Lin'an. He looked at Ren Yijiang seriously, "Daoist, have confidence in our soldiers!" They are the elite who have defeated the Mongol cowardly Xue army! And we still have black powder in our hands, which can be used to blow up the city wall of Lin'an! ”
"Explode?"
"That's right, the cave is besieging the city!" Chen Dexing said. "Tomorrow we will start to explore tactics, and in the future, we will crisscross the north and rely on gunpowder to collapse the city wall!" He snorted coldly, "If the imperial court wants to attack us, then the first one to collapse is the city wall of Lin'an!" ”
……
On the same night, in the office of the ambassador of Xuanfu in Gangneung Fucheng.
Jia Rudao was comfortably stretching his legs and waist, sitting on a brocade collapse, with a few beautiful women waiting around him, enjoying the song and dance while drinking the banquet. His ambassador of Xuanfu is no longer done, and is preparing to leave for Lin'an to be the right prime minister and privy envoy. So in the past few days, every day I have a banquet with the local officials in Jinghu - drinking the send-off wine. Often drink an all-nighter, do not sleep until three poles in the daytime, and prepare to usher in all kinds of communication in the afternoon, and eat and drink before it gets dark.
This official banquet of the Song Dynasty is even more exaggerated than that of later generations! It's not over until dawn! And there are also official songs and dances to help the fun, this official is really comfortable. That's why Chen Dexing refused to let his ordinary brothers and students go to the officialdom of the Southern Song Dynasty, otherwise they would be abandoned in less than three years. In addition to endless singing, dancing, drinking and drinking banquets and fighting crickets, Jia Yidao still has the ability to have time to take care of official and military affairs in an orderly manner, but not just anyone can have it!
When everyone was drinking, they saw Liang Chongru, Jia Nidao's staff, hurriedly walked in, arrived at Jia Nidao's side, waved Mei Ji who was accompanying the wine to retreat, and then leaned over to Jia Nidao's ear and whispered: "Xianggong, Yangzhou's urgent foot delivery, the envoy named Hao Jing from the north is here again, and the person has arrived on the north bank of the Huai River, Li Anfu asked if you want him to come south?" ”
"What? Hao Jing is here again? Do you know what's going on? ”
Liang Chongru said: "It seems that he is here to talk about peace, and Kublai Khan seems to want his eldest son to marry the princess of the Great Song Dynasty." ”R1152
