Luye Zanliang was specially transferred from Ganjingzhuang by Li Qinzai's order. During this trip to Japan, Xiao Baga must stay with Li Qinzai. It's not that Li Qinzai has any animalistic thoughts and insists on doing anything like Xiao Baga.
But Xiao Baga's identity meant that she could not stay out of the matter. The emperor's eldest daughter accompanied Li Qinzai to the Japanese country, which was conducive to Li Qinzai's control over the Japanese royal family and subjects.
Of course, in terms of the beast's mind, we can look forward to it as an unexpected surprise. After all, the eldest daughter of the emperor has been a maid in the Li Family Courtyard for so long and is used to doing rough work. She must be very strong. If she has a crush on Li Qinzai There is a high probability that Li Qinzai will not be able to fight against any evil thoughts.
But from Xiao Baga's point of view, she was absolutely unwilling to follow Li Qinzai back to Japan. Although she was not sure about the purpose of Li Qinzai leading his army to Japan this time, she was certain that it was definitely not to celebrate the birthday of her father's second brother.
No matter what the purpose, she really didn't want to become a pawn in Li Qinzai's hands.
"I'm taking you back to Japan to meet your parents. I've kept your family in order. Shouldn't you be grateful? Why do you look so reluctant?" Li Qinzai said dissatisfied.
Konozanliang whispered: "It doesn't really matter whether the slave is willing or not, does it?" Li Qinzai looked at her with appreciation and said, "You are finally alive." Konozanliang said again: "Fifth Young Master Will Lang lead his army to the Japanese country this time and massacre my Japanese people?" Li Qinzai said calmly: "I know what you are thinking. I can only tell you that if the Japanese people do not offend me, I will not kill people casually. After all, I He is not a murderous maniac." Kono Zanliang was silent for a moment and said: "As the eldest daughter of the emperor, I will ask my father to restrain the subjects in the country and never offend the Tang Dynasty king." Li Qinzai smiled: "That's right. , this is the meaning of taking you to the Japanese country."... Leading Bu Qu and Xiao Baga, Li Qinzai entered the camp in the northern suburbs proudly.
As soon as I walked in, the military drums were beating. The rumble of the drums seemed to influence the rhythm of the heart, and people's emotions were also excited along with the drums.
A group of armored generals strode towards Li Qinzai, stood in front of Li Qinzai, and saluted with clasped fists.
"General Wang Fangyi, the former governor of Anxi, paid a visit to Duke Li. Yesterday, General Mo received an order from the Ministry of War. He was appointed deputy general of Duke Li to assist Duke Li in leading the army to cross the Japanese country eastward." Li Qinzai heard Wang Fangyi's name and immediately stepped forward. Holding his arm.
This Wang Fangyi can be regarded as a famous general in the Tang Dynasty. Although he is not dazzling in the history books, a few years later, Wang Fangyi led his army to directly attack the Western Turks at the Yinli River, captured their royal court, and captured their khan. Only by frightening the Western Regions could the Tang Dynasty basically guarantee the stability of the Western Regions during the reign of Empress Wu.
Unexpectedly, Li Zhi transferred him from the Anxi Protectorate to serve as his deputy general. Wang Fangyi also has another identity, which is a bit embarrassing to say.
Li Zhi’s ex-wife, Queen Wang, is Wang Fangyi’s cousin. After Queen Wang was deposed, Wang Fangyi's career was naturally greatly affected. Otherwise, with his ability, he would be just a guardian now.
Li Qinzai also realized at this time that Li Zhi had another deep meaning in appointing Wang Fangyi as his deputy.
In order to let Empress Wu ascend to the throne, Li Zhi deposed Empress Wang, and the relationship with the Wang family in Taiyuan was very cold for a time. Later, Mrs. Wei was murdered, and Li Zhi issued an order to restore the original surname of the Wang family and obeyed Empress Wu.
Although Empress Wu surrendered, Li Zhi obviously would not continue to let her go just because of her surrender. He was consciously and purposefully easing the relationship between the royal family and the Wang family in Taiyuan.
The noble families must be suppressed, but not all at once. The emperor will not be so extreme in doing things, but the queen must be pampered and occasionally slapped to make her behave better.
The aristocratic family wants to suppress them, but of course they also have to give a sweet date occasionally to make them less antagonistic. This is called the Imperial Balance Technique.
During this expedition, Li Zhi sent Wang Fangyi to Li Qinzai's side, probably with the same idea.
"Wang Duhu, haha, I have long admired your name." Li Qinzai greeted warmly. Treat historical celebrities with respect, and let them sign a few autographs for you if you have nothing to do. If future generations lose their fortune, they can earn a living by selling the autographs of historical celebrities.
Li Qinzai's thoughts are so simple and unpretentious. Wang Fangyi was flattered by Li Qinzai's enthusiasm and didn't even dare to say anything.
Since Empress Wang was deposed, Wang Fangyi's career has basically come to a halt. The reason why he was not liquidated by Empress Wu was that Wang Fangyi was far away in Anxi and the empress could not stretch her hands that long.
Secondly, the Wang family in Taiyuan has been a powerful family for thousands of years. No matter how poor the family is, it will still have the power of death. Empress Wu would not dare to stroke her beard easily.
But Li Qinzai could see that all the changes in the court over the years had dealt a big blow to Wang Fangyi. From the moment they met to this moment, Wang Fangyi was always cautious, especially in front of Li Qinzai, a county man who was highly valued by the emperor. On the one hand, he didn't dare to take the arrogance of a member of a noble family.
"Mr. Li County, the military deployment order has been sent to the camp in the northern suburbs. All supplies of food, grass, weapons, and firearms have been prepared. Please come to the stage to order the generals and swear an oath to go to war." Wang Fangyi said.
Li Qinzai nodded and did not refuse at this time. He took the lead and walked towards the training ground. Surrounded by a group of generals, Li Qinzai, wearing armor, proudly arrived at the training ground. The field was already densely packed with soldiers, and as he looked around, there was no end in sight.
Li Qinzai ascended the command platform, and a general suddenly waved down the small flag in his hand. There was a sudden sound of armor leaves clashing on the training ground, and ten thousand soldiers saluted Li Qinzai holding his halberd.
Li Qinzai's face was solemn. After scanning around, he raised his voice and said: "By decree, I have ordered Li Qinzai, the Duke of Weinan County, to be the military commander of Honshu Road. He will lead an army of 10,000 people to cross the Japanese country eastward. All the soldiers, Japanese kings and ministers, and the islands of the Japanese country will be sent to the east." Military and political officials, various departments of the Navy, etc. are all subject to their control, and those who violate the law will be dealt with accordingly." The officers and men saluted one after another to show their service.
Li Qinzai smiled and said loudly: "What I just said is the content of the imperial edict. Now as the commander of the first army, I will say a few more plain words."
"In this battle, all officers and men in the army, regardless of their rank, will obey my military orders, abide by my laws, follow the direction of the flag, and be invincible. Those who bravely kill the enemy will be rewarded based on their merits. I will protect you all from a bright future."
"I hope all of you Pao Ze brothers will strive for success, both for your own sake and for the future generations of your family. You will make meritorious service in one battle and be kind to your descendants. You will be worthy of the emperor's kindness at the top, and worthy of your wife, children and children below." After speaking, Li Qinzai waved his hand and said: "That's it, everyone. Soldiers, prepare to move out!" Wang Fangyi strode forward and shouted to the soldiers: "Each department will count the soldiers, weapons, food and grass, based on the battalion, and move out!" Looking at the soldiers on the training ground, they assembled and lined up in an orderly manner. , quietly set out towards the camp gate, Li Qinzai nodded secretly.
It is not unreasonable for the Tang Dynasty king's army to be invincible in the world. Even the smallest details can show the combat power of an army.
Looking towards the distant sky, Li Qinzai smiled. The strategy of pacifying Haidong begins today. The world is no longer the same. Because of his arrival, the world will become more chaotic.
