Li Jing nodded slightly, not much excited about the bunch of official positions that the imperial court had just sealed him. It's because these are glorious titles, and they have little practical meaning except for good sound. From General Jinwu to General Zuo Xiaowei, he was promoted from the third rank to the second rank, which seems to have been promoted by one level. But after the collapse of the military system, the sixteen guards of the Tang Dynasty, except for the left and right Jin Wuwei and the left and right prison guards, were retained because they were all in the capital, except for the twelve guards who were in charge of the government soldiers, they had already existed in name only.

After the Anshi Rebellion, the Twelve Guards were already in name only, and the establishment of the yamen was still there, but there were no soldiers anymore, and those military positions had completely become idle posts as additional officials. And in the time of Dezong, in order to favor the heroes, above the highest general of the Sixteen Weiyuan, each set up a general, from the second grade. Li Jing's original General Jinwu was an additional official, and now he has another General Zuo Xiaowei, which is just good.

However, it was the promotion of this martial arts rank that made Li Jing quite satisfied. The rank of Wu San is somewhat similar to the rank of military generals, and the general of the auxiliary state, as a second-rank military officer, is only one level lower than the highest-ranking general of the first-rank hussar. Basically, among the soldiers and horses of the Eight Towns, Li Jing's military officers are the most senior.

The commanders of the towns were even more amazed and envious of Li Jing's rank of school inspector, who was the chief official of the three provinces and the prime minister in the early Tang Dynasty. Later, the prime minister had to add the same level to be the prime minister. However, under normal circumstances, the servants will add the same level of affairs and become the prime minister as the head of a province. Originally, the servant was the position of the third rank, and later he was promoted to the second rank official. It can be said that in terms of the rank of the ministry officer alone, the second rank of the servant is already the top official position in the Tang Dynasty. The three divisions and three princes of the first product are further up. It's already just a glory plus.

Li Jing has now actually got the position of a waiter. It's too surprising, although the secretary of the feudal town, the Zhongshu Order, and the Tongping Zhangshi are all honorary titles. But now there are a few Datang who can get such a title. Even Gao Yu, the general who is now regarded as the first general, has just been added to the rank of servant.

According to the usual practice, Li Jing will soon be able to get the title of envoy of Tongping Zhangshi next.

After some celebration, Yu Cong proposed another important thing for the trip.

"Your Majesty is looking forward to the Taimiao prisoner sacrifice and the triumphant army of Vermilion Bird Street this time, but the political hall is a little worried, I don't know what you think of Zheng Shuai, Yu Shuai, and Li Shuai?" Yu Cong's words are very clear. This time the victory of Daibei is a very exciting thing. At present, although the rebellion of the people of Daibei Shatuo is not as good as the southern barbarian invasion of Xichuan by the Nanzhao State Pixin Chief, although Gao Biao has won several battles in Xichuan, since the chieftain ascended to the throne of the Southern Tang Dynasty, that is, Pixin, he has fought against the Tang Dynasty for 18 years and fought for 16 years, so it can be said that the entire southern Xinjiang has already been eroded. A momentary victory, in the eyes of the officials of the political hall in Chang'an, could not be regarded as a real victory. Anyway, no matter how you fight, no matter how hard you fight. This Emperor Chieftain, who has already changed the Nanzhao Kingdom to the Great Rite Kingdom, will not be long after. will still continue to invade the Tang Dynasty, and he is completely a southern barbarian who is not afraid of death.

And now there are rebellions in Henan's Tianping Army and Ziqing Town, and there are also rebellions in eastern and western Zhejiang, under such circumstances, the Son of Heaven, who has just succeeded to the throne for more than a year, really needs a complete victory to lift the hearts of the people of the government and the wilderness.

The pacification of the Daibei Shatuo rebellion is undoubtedly such a very suitable model.

But this very good thing is now overshadowed. Because Tian Lingzi had assassinated Li Jing twice before, and almost caused the mutiny of the Zhenguo army, although the emperor asked to continue the activities of the imperial court dedication and triumphant entry into the city, the ministers of the political hall had a worry. What if the Zhenguo Army makes trouble in Chang'an City?

Zheng Congyan and Yu Xuan both turned their heads to look at Li Jing, Li Jing sat up slightly straight, and said solemnly: "If Yu Xiangguo is worried about the military discipline of the soldiers of our Zhenguo Army, then please rest assured." Although the Zhenguo Army is not as good as the ancient king's division, it is also able to give military orders, and it is completely able to do nothing in the autumn, let alone do anything that makes the world laugh. ”

Hearing Li Jing's assurance, Yu Cong finally put his mind at ease.

The next day, Yu Cong came to Ba Shang again and announced to the marshals that the Son of Heaven had set the eighth day of the third month, that is, two days later, the army entered from the Mingde Gate, the middle gate of the southern city of Chang'an, and then accepted the welcome of the people along the Vermilion Bird Street, and finally arrived at the Vermilion Bird Gate of the imperial city, where the Son of Heaven would personally receive the triumphant army. Then there is the sacrifice of prisoners in the Taimiao, as well as the reward of the Golden Temple.

If you want to enter the city to be read, of course, you have to show the mighty side of the Tang Dynasty soldiers. For this reason, as early as when Li Yi ordered the triumphant army to enter Chang'an, the Weiwei Temple, which was in charge of weapons and equipment in the Tang Dynasty, had joined forces with the household department to make new uniforms for the soldiers who were triumphantly read. However, the imperial court was responsible for more than 30,000 sets of battle robes, and as for the armor, weapons, and war horses of the soldiers, they had to be prepared by each town itself.

In addition, there must be detailed regulations on how the soldiers and horses of each town are arranged, what kind of formation, which town army is in front and which town is behind. These troops have already formulated detailed plans, and now Yu Cong has asked people to bring them and distribute them to the town commanders.

Since Li Jing had the largest army, it was decided that the first to appear would be Li Jing's 2,000 cavalry black flag army, and then 3,000 guard cavalry with silver spears, white horses, and silver saddles. Then there was Li Jing with two officer guard battalions, followed by three infantry battalions. Then there was Yu Xuan's Zhenwu Army, and then Zheng Congyan's Hedong Army. Then there would be other generals and horses, as well as cavalry of the five tribes, and the last was Li Jing's infantry escorting 3,000 prisoners.

The robes made by the imperial court were also sent, but Li Jing looked down on these shoddy military robes. The Zhenguo army had its own military uniforms, and when they were in Hedong, each person had three sets of winter clothes, but as a result, two sets were given to friendly troops. After the chaos was pacified, Li Jing did not ask Dengzhou to send winter clothes to Hedong again, but asked them to send a new batch of spring clothes. Three sets per person, complete with clothes, socks, shoes and hats.

The uniforms of the Black Flag Army were not red, but black. The three hussar guard battalions were not red either, but all white. The rest of the soldiers and horses were all fiery red, and they were to enter Chang'an City to be read. All the soldiers on the baat were excited.

Everyone carefully wiped the armor on their bodies. Wipe it off and shine brightly. In pristine condition. Li Jing also deliberately asked people to boil a lot of hot water, made hundreds of temporary bathroom tents for the soldiers of the army to bathe and wash their hair, and also asked the soldiers below to shave each other's faces, trim their hair, and comb their beards.

Throughout the day, the entire army was busy grooming and dressing up. Although the Tang Dynasty is not as strong as it was at the beginning, even the orders of the Son of Heaven are not willing to be obeyed. But no matter what. More than 200 years ago, the Tang Dynasty is still irreplaceable in the hearts of the people of the world.

Wang Dong of the Rock Camp didn't fall asleep all night last night, and he couldn't sleep with excitement. He is now holding the position of battalion commander, the commander is a title that has just been changed, and it is said that there are already commanders in the Shence Army, so after the Battle of Daibei, some official positions of the Zhenguo Army have also changed somewhat.

At present, the Zhenguo Army is still organized into units, teams, capitals, battalions, compartments, and armies. Take five groups as a team, two teams as one capital, and five groups as a battalion. Take the five battalions as one box, and then take the two boxes as one army. After the implementation of the new establishment. Wang Dong now has fewer soldiers, in the past there were 12 people in a group, 70 people in a team, 200 people in a group, and 1,000 people in a battalion.

But now, the standard is 10 for a group, 50 for a team, 100 for a battalion, 500 for a battalion, 2,500 for a box, and 5,000 for an army.

The leader of the gang is still the leader of the gang, and the team is still the leader. However, the governor of the capital has been changed, and it was originally the capital, and now it is called the commander. And the battalion above the capital, the original ten generals were also renamed commanders. The commander of the battalion is the soldier and horse envoy, and the army-level commander is renamed the military envoy from the military envoy to the Duzhi soldier and horse envoy.

According to the notice issued by the General Staff Department of the Military Department, the entire Zhenguo Army is now divided into five armies and five teeth, which are the front and rear, the left, the center, and the right, with 5,000 men and horses each. In addition, there are five ya, front and back, left and right ya, and ya. The five armies had 5,000 men each, with a total establishment of 25,000 men, and the five yas also had 5,000 men per ya, and after the entire reorganization, the Zhenguo army had 50,000 horses. In addition to the 20,000 horses and horses in Chang'an now, plus the 10,000 left behind in Dengzhou, the 8,000 in eastern Zhejiang that went south, and the newly recruited soldiers and horses, it happened to be five armies and five ya. And this does not include the 10,000 soldiers and horses led by Fu Wenda to return to southern Liaoning, as well as the 8,000 soldiers and horses left behind in Youzhou.

Wang Dong's deepest feeling about this change in the establishment is that the battalion head is divided more and more detailed, originally there were only five compartments in the entire Zhenguo army, but now, with 20 compartments, there are nearly 20,000 horses are not in this establishment. There are more battalion heads, and the military power in the hands of the generals has become much smaller.

Wang Dong is now the commander of the Panshi Battalion, and when he originally set out on the expedition, he was only a deputy ten generals, and the official position in the battalion ranked fifth. However, in Youzhou and Hedong, he performed well in several battles, and was directly promoted to battalion commander after the most Lu.

However, after reading this time, there must be a large number of promotions, and he has already heard that he is also on the promotion list of the marching Sima.

"Can't you sleep too?" Wang Dong, who couldn't sleep, simply got up and went to inspect the camp of the main camp, only to find that the soldiers in each tent were talking in a whisper, and no one was sleeping.

"Thinking that I would be able to see the emperor tomorrow, I couldn't sleep with excitement. The eight generations of my family have been farming, and no one has ever been to the capital, let alone the emperor. What's more, we still have to be reviewed by the emperor this time. A soldier lay in his tent and said excitedly.

The other was also excited, and did not notice that the battalion commander had actually joined in. "You say, can we also be an official or something this time?"

"I am now a first-class sergeant major, if I can get the Wusan rank, even if it is from the ninth rank to accompany the second lieutenant, then I can be directly promoted to the captain."

"If I am promoted to the rank of dispersion, if I am lucky, maybe I can directly become the deputy of the team, and then I will officially become an official. This is something that my family has dreamed of for generations, my father has only been a warden all his life, maybe his son will become a colonel in the future, hehe! There is smoke coming out of my ancestral grave. ”

Lao He, the only one in the group who knew some words, became excited, and punched the figure next to him: "What about you, what about you, what do you think?" ”

Wang Dong sat at that time, listening to the words of these soldiers under him, and couldn't help but think of the time when he followed Li Jing in the first place. was hammered twice by his subordinates, and he didn't care, he just smiled and said: "I, I'm already the battalion commander now, if I'm lucky enough to be promoted to another level, maybe I can become a chamber Sima or a deputy commander and horse envoy." Then I can be called a general. ”

When several big-headed soldiers of Group A heard this, they first burst into laughter, and said in their hearts that bragging would not be taxed. It was so funny that when he arrived, he suddenly found that this voice was both strange and familiar, and then he opened his eyes wide and found that Commander Wang had actually sat down on the edge of their shop at some point.

In the darkness of the night, a group of big-headed soldiers were all silent. (To be continued......)
