Before the gate of heaven was closed, in the military tent in the camp of the recruiting army, the towns gathered, and after receiving the will, there were eight marshals in the middle army tent at this time.

Zheng Congyan, the envoy of the envoy and the envoy of the Hedong Jiedu, was in the position of handsome, and next to him was Zhang Tai, the general of the Angel's right guard. Then one left and one right are respectively the deputy envoy of the recruitment, the envoy of the Zhenwu Army, the envoy of the Tongping Zhangshi Wei Guogong Yu Xuan, the deputy envoy of the recruitment, the secretary of the criminal department of the inspection school, and the envoy of the national army of the Duke of Qi Li Jing.

Under these three envoys, on the left is Li Zhuo, the envoy of the Heyang Festival, Li Chong, the envoy of the Yicheng Army, and Cui Anqian, the envoy of the Zhongwu Festival. Behind them sat the Lanzhou Thorn Shi Gao Wenshun and the Xinzhou Thorn Shi Gao Anthology. Yunmo generals Fu Wenda and Fu Wentong.

On the right is Helian Duo of the Tuyuhun Helian tribe who was newly promoted to the commander of the Tiande Army Jiedu of a town, and Tuoba Sigong, a member of the Dangxiang clan who was newly promoted to the envoy of Xia Sui Yinjie. Sitting behind the two were the Governor of Sagar, the Governor of Ulzhou, Mi Haiwan, the Governor of Anqing, the Governor of Daizhou, Shi Jingcun, the Governor of Yinshan, the Governor of Yunzhou, Qi Bizhang, and the Governor of Fengzhou, Bai Yicheng.

The former Zhaoyi Festival made Li Jun and the Zhaoyi army of 8,000 into the east of the river annihilated, and at this time, no one in Zhaoyi Town was rewarded for meritorious deeds.

In addition to the 10,000 infantry of Fu Wenda, Fu Wentong, Gao Wenji, and Gao Wenshun, there were also 9,000 cavalry from Sage, Anqing, and Qibi, and Li Jing himself only brought Zhou Dewei and Gao Shunli to lead 5,000 cavalry south to Taiyuan. The rest of the soldiers and horses were 5,000 people, led by Wang Chong, and stationed at Taixi Pass. A group of 10,000 horses was led by Lin Wu to garrison Yunzhou.

But even so. At this time, Li Jing's soldiers and horses also reached 24,000 men, 14,000 cavalry, and 10,000 infantry.

Yu Xuan's Tiande army and Helian troops and horses, plus a part of the Zhenwu army that surrendered, also reached 20,000 horses and 8,000 horses at this time. 12,000 infantry.

On the contrary, Zheng Congyan had the least soldiers and horses, originally had 30,000 horses in his hands, but as a result, 8,000 soldiers and horses in Zhaoyi Town were destroyed, and Su Hongzhen's 3,000 captives were also lost, so Zheng Congyan's men were now only 19,000 men and horses, and if you add the 2,000 party cavalry of the Tuoba Department, there are only 21,000 men and horses, of which only 6,000 cavalry. Fifteen thousand infantry.

Get rid of the Zhaoyi Army, which was wiped out by the whole army, and now the eight towns are plus Sage, Anqing, and Qibi. Eleven people and horses, a total of 65,000 troops, not counting the 15,000 soldiers and horses left by Li Jing in Yunzhou and Ulzhou, all added together, recruiting a large army of 80,000 troops.

After Yu Xuan arrived in Hedong, he first went to Taiyuan to meet Zheng Congyan, and the two had just arrived from Taiyuan at this time.

Li Jing took the lead in stepping forward to greet the marshal Zheng Congyan with his fists: "Li Jing of the Zhenguo Army greets the marshal!" ”

As soon as he saw Li Jing, Zheng Congyan couldn't help but appreciate a little, Li Jing is a talent, his appearance is very good, and he is satisfied at a glance. In particular, Li Jing has made great contributions at the moment, but he has not been arrogant and domineering, and he immediately paid a big salute when he saw him, which made him very satisfied. I couldn't help but put my hand on the five locks of long beard under my chin and smiled slightly, and my eyes were full of appreciation.

Li Jing actively responded to the call of the imperial court to send troops this time, and had been circling in Youzhou before, which made him a little worried that Li Jing did not want to come. Unexpectedly, Li Jing arrived all the way to Jinzhong, but as soon as he arrived in Jinzhong, his military exploits were inferior to those of their towns and horses together. Not only did he recover the four states of Xinyun in the Wei Dynasty, but what was more important was that he rebelled against two of the three Shatuo at once, and rebelled against the Gao brothers and the Fu brothers, which recruited more than 10,000 people at once, and blocked the retreat of the Shatuo rebels to the grassland. And not only that, Li Jing also successfully planned the Zhenwu Army's anyway, as well as the dispatch of the party people, and annihilated Li Guochang's 6,000 elite Shatuo cavalry at once. Now, he has also brought 3,000 cavalry from the Qibi Division, which can be described as a great achievement. And he also heard Yu Xuan say that it was Li Jing's proposal to attack Shan Yuduhufu in the first place.

And as soon as he arrived at Tianmen Pass, he heard about the decree issued by the imperial court, added Li Jing as the Duke of Qi, gave the Zhendong Army the name Zhenguo Army, and rewarded Li Jing with a large amount of money and silk. Li Jing took out all the money and silk and rewarded the soldiers below, and also paid out of his own pocket to give a rich reward to the rebel soldiers and horses in the towns of Tianmen Pass. This made him very happy, and rewarded the generals and horses, which was originally his duty as a solicitor, but in the past two or three years, Hedong Town has mutinied four or five times, and there is really no money in the house. Now Li Jing has helped him out with this money, which makes him quite happy.

At this time, in Zheng Congyan's eyes, Li Jing is no longer just a fierce general who can fight, but has grown into a qualified and excellent commander who can stand alone.

"Ji Yu, please get up, in this battle of rebellion, you are the first. I'm glad to get to know a junior like you. ”

Li Jing is also very satisfied with Zheng Congyan, in Li Jing's view, Zheng Congyan is a minister who is truly loyal to the Tang Dynasty, but unfortunately, he was born at the wrong time and was born in this stormy late Tang Dynasty. Zheng Congyan is like a firefighter, which can be seen from his career resume.

"The marshal has won the award, Jing doesn't dare to take credit, and he can have this record entirely because the marshal judged the time and seized the momentum, and successfully dragged Li Keyong's main force under Taiyuan City. This time, His Majesty Long En crowned me as the Duke of Qi and awarded me the position of marshal of a town, which is really a little panicked. In the future, I hope that the marshal can give more advice. ”

Zheng Congyan smiled and gestured to Yu Xuan next to him: "You master and apprentice should not have seen each other for a long time, come and meet your teacher." ”

Li Jing walked up to Yu Xuan, knelt down on his knees, and solemnly saluted: "Protégé Li Jing knocks on the teacher!" ”

Yu Xuan was surprised when he saw Li Jing in the account just now.

It has only been almost a year since he was separated from Li Jing, and when he met again, Li Jing's changes were too great. It's not a change in official position, but a radical change from the inside out. When he first accepted Li Jing as an apprentice, Li Jing's body was still a little thin and weak at that time, and his whole person was a little green. But now, Li Jing's body is much stronger, although it is not like a tiger's back, but it is also strong and healthy. In particular, he seemed to be much taller than he was then, about six feet two, standing there a head taller than him. Especially those eyes, which reveal confidence, sharp and calm.

Li Jing now gives him the feeling of confidence, calmness, and atmosphere, which is not like a young man in his early twenties at all, but seems to be a calm middle-aged man who has experienced half a lifetime of experience.

For three days, you should be impressed.

In the blink of an eye, Li Jing's achievements are no weaker than him, and his official position has been equal to him. The twenty-one-year-old Kaizhen Festival Marshal is not a famous family, but he has already been crowned the prince of the country, Yu Xuan sighed, he has a protégé like this, what can he ask for.

Yu Xuan was very pleased to get this good apprentice.

He helped Li Jing up, reached out and patted Li Jing's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Good boy, you have gone further than the teacher expected." No wonder at the beginning, Brother Cui told me in the letter that he wanted to take you to Qingzhou but you refused, and at first I thought you thought you had a very high opinion of yourself, but now it seems that you already have an idea in your heart. ”

Li Jing hasn't seen Yu Xuan for more than a year, and when he sees him again, although Yu Xuan's feels a little older, his spirit is not comparable to that in Dengzhou. When he was in Dengzhou, Yu Jiagang suffered a catastrophe, and the whole clan was demoted, and he was demoted from Ziqing Festival Marshal to Dengzhou Sima, and his mood can be imagined. And now, he not only made a comeback in the Tiande Army, but also relied on his counterinsurgency exploits this time, and also entered the Zhenwu Army in one fell swoop.

"The kindness of the teacher and professor, Li Jing remembers it in his heart, and it is unforgettable."

Yu Xuan nodded, a relieved smile on his face. "You are not only my protégé of Yu Xuan, but also the protégé of Brother Cui, both of us are dedicated to the court, and now I am very happy to see you so promising. I hope you can be loyal to the Son of Heaven, serve the court, be loyal to the country, and become the minister of Zhongxing of my Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Jing nodded silently, although he didn't think that the Tang Dynasty could still flourish, but he didn't want Yu Xuan to be sad and disappointed.

At this time, Zheng Congyan smiled on the side: "Ji Yu has just arrived, why don't I introduce you to each other." ”

Zheng Congyan directly held Li Jing's hand and helped him introduce the people in the tent all the way. Except for the festival commanders of each town and a few Hu tribes, Li Jing really didn't know the others. After introducing the generals of the three departments of the eight towns, Zheng Congyan introduced the officials of the yamen of the landlord Hedong Jiedu to Li Jing, and Zheng Congyan's staff members were basically transferred from Chang'an. The reason is because of the mutiny in Hedong for many years, the arrogant soldiers are fierce generals, and it is difficult to peace.

"The former Chang'an ordered the king to be transferred as the deputy envoy, the military department member Wailang and the history museum revised Liu Chonggui as the judge of the festival, the former division officer Wailang and the history museum revised Zhao Chong as the observation judge, the advance soldier Liu Chonglu was the promotion officer, the former left left Li Wuchong was the secretary, and the former Chang'an Wei Cui Zechong was the envoy." Looking at this group of Hedong staff who followed Zheng Congyan from Chang'an, Li Jing couldn't help but feel a little envious, these people are all talents. Only Zheng Congyan, the prime minister, can have such a big face and transfer so many Beijing officials as staff members of the Shuai Mansion. No wonder, after he entered Hedong, he kept hearing people say that Zheng Congyan's Taiyuan shogunate was a "small court". The grand opening was indeed a moment.

After that, the town marshals also got to know each other again. Zhuzhen Fan Shuai, for Li Jing, the deputy envoy, is very polite. Li Jing is favored by the Son of Heaven, and there are two handsome men Yu Xuan and Zheng Congyan below, and there are nearly 40,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and Li Jing is generous and bold, so naturally everyone is willing to get acquainted.
