- Chapter 384: Help you succeed
A few days ago, all the 200,000 troops from the Yongzhou South Camp were stationed five miles outside Yongzhou City. Half of the hundreds of thousands of troops deployed on the front line in southern Xinjiang were mobilized, 50,000 rushed to Yongzhou to join together, and 40,000 were stationed to the north of Nanyan. The total strength of the border troops was not less than 60,000. The threat of Nan Yan to the Sui Dynasty was almost negligible. It would be good if this small and lingering country could protect itself.
Zhan Yao was ordered to stay behind, and the left vanguard's strength of 100,000 was under his control. But there are more than this number of soldiers stationed here. Counting the county soldiers in the cities of Pingshang Road, there should be no less than 150,000 people. In terms of military strength, Pingshang Road was the road with the most troops during the Sui Dynasty. The ratio between the number of people and the number of troops reached an astonishing figure.
There are nearly 300,000 troops, including nearly 400,000 auxiliary soldiers.
This is the first time in more than ten years that the left avant-garde has been mobilized on such a scale, and the people of Yongzhou are excited. Before the expedition, Luo Yao sent people to post notices announcing that the left vanguard would go north to fight the rebellion for the country. When they heard that Luo Yao was leaving, the people had the urge to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
Over the years, everyone has lived in Luo Yao¡¯s shadow.
Hundreds of thousands of troops are camped out for dozens of miles outside the city, and you can't see the edge at a glance.
The army set off at an auspicious time. Before setting off, Luo Yao personally supervised the beheading of the few people sent by the rebels and beheaded them to sacrifice to the flag. Fang Jie subconsciously touched his neck while standing aside and watching, recalling that this was what he was worried about before coming to Yongzhou, being beheaded by Luo Yao to sacrifice the flag. Now when I see others being chopped down, I feel a weird feeling in my heart.
He looked at the beheaded rebels with strange eyes. Two people looked at him with strange eyes. One is Luo Yao's son Luo Wen, and the other is Wen Xiaodao, one of Luo Men's Ten Heroes. Luo Wen now looks at Fang Jie as if he were looking at the enemy who killed his father, and Wen Xiaodao looks at Fang Jie as if he were looking at his opponent in the ring.
This time during the expedition, Luo Yao did not take Luo Wen with him. You must know that this is a great opportunity for your son to accumulate military merit. When the time comes, you only need to assign some of the battles played by the left avant-garde to Luo Wen, and it is impossible for the court not to promote him. After a battle, the position of fourth-grade general is easy.
Even if Luo Wen is not brought with him, it is understandable to let him stay in Yongzhou. But the power is not in his hands but in Zhan Yao, which makes people have some thoughts.
In contrast, Luo Yao's preference for Fang Xie has made people's hearts move. Fang Jie was just a young man who had just arrived in Yongzhou. Even if he had the status of an imperial envoy, Luo Yao obviously valued him too much. First, he wrote to the court to keep this man, and then sent him a Zhechong Battalion. That's all. Yesterday, he even mobilized more than a thousand war horses to arm the Shanzi Battalion into a pure cavalry force.
Even if the left midfielder's horses are not scarce, this is already an abnormal behavior.
I don¡¯t know since when, speculation about the relationship between Fang Jie and Luo Yao began to spread among the generals of the left avant-garde. Some people swore that the general had a second son more than ten years ago, but he lost it for some unknown reason. As soon as this speculation emerged, it spread unstoppably among people.
Fang Jie also heard some of it, and he could only sneer at it.
Unless Luo Yao ordered it, how could this news spread?
He has no interest in paying attention to this, and is even happy to see the consequences.
The soldiers of Shanzi camp stood behind Fang Jie on horseback, half of them with bruises on their noses and faces. However, everyone held their chests high and raised their chins to vividly show their pride. A pure cavalry team, except for the light cavalry battalion and the heavy cavalry battalion under the general, can't be found on the left forward guard!
The road to Huangyang is far away, thousands of miles long. If nothing else, the cavalry is much more comfortable to walk than the infantry. Before the expedition, Fang Jie asked for war horses. How could the soldiers be unhappy? Even though he was indeed harsh yesterday, the soldiers had long been in awe of this young general after witnessing him killing less than half of the officers in one night.
"You all know what you are going to do!"
Luo Yao climbed onto the Yongzhou city wall and faced the army outside the city with a solemn expression. These soldiers were all accumulated by him over the years. They were soldiers of the Sui Dynasty, especially his soldiers. In Yongzhou, the court's orders may not be effective. But Luo Yao¡¯s words are the imperial edict here!
"With the rebellion in the northwest, the people are in dire straits! As soldiers of the Sui Dynasty, your duty is to serve the country! As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it's time to show your sword! Soldiers, everyone is putting on their military uniforms. From that day on, who didn¡¯t think about when they would be able to show off their skills? That¡¯s what I want! When the country is in trouble, the soldiers take the lead! The purpose of raising troops is to protect the country and the well-being of the people. Ankang, there are people who covet the country that the soldiers and martyrs conquered, will you agree?"
"Nopromise! "
The response was deafening!
"I won't say more, but I have only one request for you Since you are going to the battlefield, you must not lose the face of the left midfielder! I, Luo Yao, have never lost a battle in my life. Whether I win or lose this time, it's up to you. Bar!"
"The left winger is invincible in the world!"
Zhan Yao roared next to him, his voice splitting the sky.
"The left winger is invincible in the world!"
"The left winger is invincible in the world!"
The shouts come and go, making people¡¯s hearts surge!
At this moment, Fang Jie was actually willing to believe that Luo Yao was really a general who was loyal to the Sui Dynasty, and he was really an admirable soldier!
¡¡
¡¡
Fang Jie's Shanzi Camp was transferred out by Luo Yao and was not under the control of any army. So when marching, they followed Luo Yao's direct team. The army directly commanded by Luo Yao included a heavy cavalry battalion of 3,000 men, a light cavalry battalion of 12,000 men, and infantry in both armies, with a total of about 36,000 soldiers. Shanziying used to be one of these thirty-six thousand people, but now they have become Fang Jie's people. In terms of commanding the team, Fang Jie directly obeyed Luo Yao's dispatch.
Counting the nearly 400,000 soldiers and auxiliaries on the march, it is not possible to travel hundreds of miles with just one mouth. From the time Luo Yao announced the dispatch of troops to the time they set up camp in the evening, some of the teams behind them had not yet left Yongzhou. Logically speaking, when such a huge force goes out for an expedition, it should be divided into several groups and march together. But Luo Yao obviously didn't have this intention, and the long queue dragged him far, far away.
After setting up camp, Zhuo Buyi, wearing a flying fish robe, entered Fang Jie's military tent. Commoner no longer wears commoner, and he is obviously not used to it. But if he appeared in the military camp wearing civilian clothes, it would undoubtedly make people suspicious. Fang Jie's Feiyupao and imperial guards were still following him, including ten people from the service camp who were all disguised as people from the Ouchi Guards Office.
"Luo Yao marches into the army like this"
After Zhuo Buyi sat down, he lowered his voice and said: "Even if I am a layman in the military, I can see that his goal is not to suppress the rebellion. Four hundred thousand people marched in without dividing the road, but stretched out like a long dragon, with the people in front After walking for a hundred miles, the following team left Yongzhou! They don't seem to be in a hurry to serve the country, they are clearly just putting on a show to show off. "
"He went north without waiting for the imperial decree to come down, which itself makes people suspicious."
Fang Jie whispered: "The imperial court's decree is to mobilize one hundred thousand elite left-wing troops to go north, join the imperial army and then head to the northwest. Luo Yao knows that once these one hundred thousand people are separated, it will be difficult to mobilize them back. After the war, Even if these 100,000 people are not filled by His Majesty as the vanguard in the three northwest lanes, they will eventually be dispersed to other teams. If nothing else happens, if Luo Yao agrees to mobilize 100,000 troops, this will definitely not be the only time. , the emperor will mobilize troops for the second and third time"
"You mean, Luo Yao is basically avoiding the emperor's will? He mobilized an army to go out, justshopping?"
¡°That¡¯s not a bad thing to say.¡±
Fang Jie nodded: "Luo Yao's mind may be wavering now, and even he himself doesn't know what to do. He doesn't want to go north to waste his troops, but he can't directly oppose the imperial court. Maybe he doesn't want to rebel, just He wants to preserve his strength. Maybe he wants to rebel, but the time has come. No matter what, he will not allow his troops to be transferred by the imperial court, so he must lead his troops to leave Yongzhou. "
Fang Jie said in a very low voice: "I have seen that the food supplies carried by the army's baggage camps, at this marching speed, are barely enough for the army to reach Huangyang Road."
"you mean?"
Zhuo Buyi was puzzled.
"What I mean is that if Luo Yao leads his troops without food, he either plans to rely on local supplies and is reluctant to touch his own things. Or he has other purposes."
He turned around, unfolded the map, and pointed to a place.
"There is Xinkoucang in Huangyang Road It ranks among the top ten in terms of storage capacity among the many granaries in the Sui Dynasty. The grain stored in the Sui Dynasty is enough for a hundred years. If it only feeds an army, Xinkoucang can be enough to support the left vanguard. Eat for a hundred years.¡±
Zhuo Buyi still didn¡¯t understand: ¡°Does the local government dare to open a granary privately?¡±
"I hope it won't be like this."
Fang Jie shook his head: "I have been too sensitive recently. I feel there is a conspiracy in everything I look at. Luo Yao leading his troops north is still a good thing for the court after all. Even if he is trying to preserve his own strength, he is actually betrayed by the traitor. The army is under considerable pressure. I am afraid that Li Yuanshan will not be able to sleep if he hears that the left avant-garde is heading north."
"Let's wait and see what happens."
Zhuo Buyi sighed and stood up to say goodbye.
Fang Jie watched him leave and frowned again. Shen Qingshan and Mu Xiaoyao sat down next to him. Looking at him, he frowned and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"What I'm worried about now is not what will happen to Luo Yao's left midfielder, but"
He paused and said, "Why didn't Shi Yuan come to me?"
¡¡

Outside Yongzhou City
Green Bamboo Forest
Luo Wen punched the thick green bamboos one after another. After a while, a large piece of green bamboo fell down. His eyes were full of anger, and his clothes were soaked with sweat!
He kept pumping his fists!
The changed physique made him more energetic. Each of his punches was sharper than before, and I have to say that Fo Zong's methods really amazed him. He felt that his body was like a body of steel at this time, and no one could defeat it.
¡°It¡¯s very incompetent to vent your anger in front of a bamboo forest.¡±
¡°I don¡¯t know when, the old monk in white robe appeared behind him.
¡°Then what else can I do!¡±
Rowan turned around and roared at him.
¡°You can do a lot more than wasting your inner energy like this.¡±
Shi Yuan walked over slowly, looked at Luo Wen and said word by word: "I came, firstly, to see how you face your father's cruelty. Secondly, I want to tell you something."
"What's up!"
"Bo Chi is dead."
Rowan's expression suddenly changed, and his pupils shrank instantly: "Youwhat did you say?"
"Bo Chi is dead, Fang Jie killed him. Moreover, Fang Jie has already learned the secret about you from Bo Chi."
"Iwhat secrets do I have"
"Yes, I have"
Shi Yuan smiled and said: "For example, why is Luo Yao so cruel and ruthless to you? Because you are not his son at all Luo Wen, you should know that Luo Yao doesn't kill you now. One of the reasons is because he treats your mother." There are also feelings, and secondly, there is no evidence. But if he finds his real son, will he show mercy to you? "
"Youyou meanFang Jie?"
"That's right."
Shi Yuan said calmly: "You don't want to lose everything that should belong to you, right? How about I teach you the Buddhist skills and let you achieve greatness in the shortest time?" - Didn't finish reading?
