Tang Rou sighed softly, Zhao Xuanyi, I wonder how you will thank me then? Cam saw Li Hanrui leaving and asked hurriedly
"Eldest Prince, what should we do next?" Gertai picked up the wine glass and drank a glass of wine
"Didn't you hear what the young master said? Let's go home if we have nothing to do. We'll have a good time in the capital these days, and then we'll go back!"
"Just go back like this?"
"Otherwise? The young master obviously has no intention of taking action, and I am also concerned about one thing!" Cam thought about what the young master just said.
"Could it be that the eldest prince wants to know who the young master's other friends are?" Gertai glanced at Cam with admiration.
"Those who can be friends with him are not ordinary people. Do I want to see how powerful he is? Let's go!" After Gertai finished speaking, he took Cam and left Zuichun Tower.
In the military camp, all the soldiers and officers were gathered on the school grounds. Zhao Xuanyi looked at the group of soldiers with a smile on his face.
"Are you full at noon?" Zhao Xuanyi shouted loudly.
"Eat enough!" all the soldiers shouted. Zhao Xuanyi nodded
"Okay! The Dark Night Kirin selection begins now. From now on, everyone will leave the military camp and run all the way to the west. After running to Huangming Mountain, Wang Yunlong and Wang Yunchuan are waiting there. Everyone runs to Huangming Mountain and then runs back!"
"Huangming Mountain? It's more than 20 kilometers away from the military camp. A round trip is more than 40 kilometers!" said a soldier.
"That's right! You have also seen that the ten pigs over there have been killed. There are 20,000 of you. Run back before dark. The first 1,000 people can eat meat, and the rest can't even drink soup. , my meat is for those who have the ability to eat, the opportunity is given to you, it is up to you whether you can eat the meat or not!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted loudly.
Only 1,000 people out of 20,000 eat meat? So only one of twenty people can eat it? However, the number of one thousand is not a small number. The soldiers have not eaten meat for several months. When they saw the slaughtered pigs, they all drooled.
"What are you looking at? Why don't you run away?" Shen Wei shouted!
"Come on!" A soldier yelled and rushed out of the military camp instantly. When the others saw it, they all ran out too. In one moment, 20,000 people began to run quickly outside the military camp because there were too many people on the ground. They were all running and smoking, and they ran out screaming loudly!
"Hahaha!" Zhao Xuanyi was very happy when he saw this scene. He must give them motivation so that they can show their strength!
"Tang Tianli!" Zhao Xuanyi shouted loudly.
"Here! Sir, what's the matter?" Tang Tianli ran over.
"Prepare thirty taels of carriages to follow behind. Don't worry about those who can't run. Pull back those who faint or are sick! Just don't kill anyone!" Zhao Xuanyi gave the order.
"Yes!" Tang Tianli led his brothers to prepare the car and followed behind. Su Xiaoding came to Zhao Xuanyi
"Sir, are you looking for me?" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Su Xiaoding and patted him on the shoulder.
"Is it frustrating to have you making jewelry in the house every day?" Su Xiaoding smiled awkwardly.
"is a bit!"
"Just in time, I have a big project for you here!" Zhao Xuanyi pulled Su Xiaoding to his school ground and said directly in the open space in front of him.
"You build me a gate for Huangling City here. Just build a city gate, one hundred and fifty steps long from east to west!"
"What?" Su Xiaoding was so dazed that she didn't even fall down.
"Sir, I've built walls, made kangs, and repaired chimneys at home. I haven't even built a house. You want me to build a city gate for you? I'm so helpless!"
"Trash! It's just that the gate is a little bigger. What are you afraid of? Look here, the sand, stones, wood, and lime have been prepared for you. You can make it according to the real city gate. You must explain it. Don't be afraid of scraps. Son, you must be serious!" Zhao Xuanyi cursed loudly.
"This?" Su Xiaoding was really scared. What happened to this adult? What kind of city gate should I build in the military camp?
"Sir, I really don't know how to do it, and I can't complete such a big project by myself!"
"Then what do you think we should do? I leave this matter to you. If you do it well, you will be rewarded. If you don't do it well... do you know how many people died in this military camp yesterday?" Zhao Xuanyi threatened loudly.
Su Xiaoding was so scared that she almost cried
"Sir, don't scare me. There is no way. In this case, I will go home and find my father. My father has been a mason all his life, and he also has many friends and brothers. If I bring them here, they will definitely be able to complete this big project!" When Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he smiled
"I knew you had a way, I saw you right!" Su Xiaoding cursed in her heart, why didn't you force her to do it?
"In this case, I will get you five taels of silver and a fast horse. You will go home immediately to discuss with your father and others. But there is one thing. The person you are looking for must be knowledgeable and don't get involved. , this is the most important thing, everyone must be checked, remember?”
"Yes! Don't worry, sir. I know all of my father's friends. They can't be wrong!" Su Xiaoding said confidently.
"Okay, if you find someone, I won't pay you a penny less, but if you want someone who can do practical things, don't find someone who is lazy!" Zhao Xuanyi reminded him again and again.
Su Xiaoding nodded
"I understand, sir, just wait for the good news!" After Su Xiaoding finished speaking, he received the money, then mounted a fast horse and set off!
Shen Wei came to Zhao Xuanyi and showed admiration.
"Are you planning to build a fake city wall and let the soldiers practice siege?" Zhao Xuanyi gave a thumbs up.
"Brother Shen, who knows me, what do these new recruits know? It is estimated that when the real war comes, they will be stupid under the city wall. If they are given an engineering ladder, they will not be able to climb it. How can they attack the city if they practice at home? , when it comes to actual combat, at least you won’t have no idea what to do!” Shen Wei couldn’t help but nod.
"Your idea is good, but this is a big project! The sand, soil, wood, etc. you bought are probably not enough! And these things cost more than eighty taels of silver!"
"Don't worry, I have only one way!" Zhao Xuanyi said confidently.
"By the way, of all the soldiers who came back today, the last thousand will be eliminated directly and will not be allowed to participate in future training! I don't like so many people who are just pretending to be here!"
"Yes! I understand!" Shen Wei said with a serious face. Just after this group of soldiers set off, the capital was already in chaos. A soldier stood up from outside the uncle's house and ran into the house. He went directly to the hall of the house and knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"Uncle Guo, something bad is going to happen!" Ye Yuanzhi glared.
"If you have anything to say, tell me. You look so flustered. What do you look like?"
"Yes, I don't know when the Tianshi Legion got the order. Twenty thousand soldiers set off collectively and are coming towards the capital!"
"What?" Ye Yuanzhi was so frightened that his face changed immediately, and his mind went blank. Ye Yaoming also stood up
"What do you mean by this? How could Li Yukun send troops for no reason? What are they trying to do? Could it be that he wants to surround the capital?"
"Young ones don't know! It's just that our people saw that only a few soldiers were left guarding the barracks of the Tianshi Army, and all other soldiers were dispatched. They were all shouting desperately, and the subordinates didn't know what was going on. I saw them running towards the capital quickly!" The soldiers were trembling with fear.
When Ye Yuanzhi heard this, he waved his sleeves
"No, I can't let Li Yukun surround me. Yaoming, take my token immediately and go to Huhao Military Camp to mobilize soldiers for me!" Ye Yaoming was stunned when he heard this.
"Father, is this okay? The matter has not been investigated clearly yet. It is not appropriate to mobilize troops. Moreover, our military ceremony is more than 300 kilometers away from the capital. Even if we come here, it is already too late!"
"What are you afraid of? Immediately mobilize 30,000 cavalry for me and have them rush to the capital. At least before Li Yukun kills me, I have to set up troops outside. I can't be beaten in vain!" Ye Yuanzhi shouted loudly.
"Yes! I'll do it now!" Ye Yaoming left in a hurry! Ye Yuanzhi sat on the chair, his heart pounding.
"Li Yukun, Li Yukun, after all these years, can you finally bear it? What a pity, you only have 20,000 troops, look at how I will kill you without leaving a single piece of your armor!" In the palace, Zhu Zhelin of the East Palace was giving his beloved The flowers were watered, and suddenly a person broke in from outside. After entering, he knelt on the ground.
"His Royal Highness, something bad has happened!" Zhao Xuanli said with a panicked expression.
"Why are you so panicked?" Zhu Zhelin asked.
"The entire Tianshi Army is dispatched, and 20,000 soldiers are rushing towards the capital. It will be here in another hour!" Zhao Xuanli shouted loudly.
"What?" Zhu Zhelin shouted, threw the kettle aside, turned around and hurried to the desk, opened the map and took a look
"Where are they now?"
"They should be near Canglan Mountain now. Because they are all infantry, they are not moving very fast, but no matter how slow they are, they will be able to rush to the capital in another hour!" Zhao Xuanli said.
Zhu Zhelin also had a look of surprise on his face
"What is Li Yukun doing? Is he trying to rebel?"
"I don't know! Prince, what should we do?"
"Quickly, take the token and go to the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion to mobilize all the troops and seal the city gate for me. All the soldiers will be mobilized on the city wall. I will go and report to my father right now and arrest Li Yukun first!" Zhu Zhelin shouted loudly.
"Yes!" Zhao Xuanli nodded and said. At the same time, in another part of the palace, Wang Jinrong also received the news
"You mean the Tianshi Legion is out in force? Are they attacking the capital?"
"That's right! This news has reached the ears of several other people!" said a young eunuch.
"What's going on? Is it possible that Li Yukun made some moves? Or was it someone else's instruction?" Wang Jinrong was not sure now.
"Father, what do you mean...?" Wang Jinrong's eyes revealed a murderous light.
"Quickly, mobilize all the imperial guards to protect the palace. No matter when, we must have a trump card in our hands!"
"Yes, I'll do it while I'm drinking!" Mingyue Palace also got the news.
"Princess, what's going on with the Tianshi Army? Why did they suddenly send out troops? What news has General Li sent?" Nan Zhu asked.
"Not really? What's going on? Did Yue Wei get any news?" Zhu Yuejun asked hurriedly.
"Yuewei didn't know anything about it. I've sent people to check, but there's no news yet!" Nanzhu said.
Zhu Yuejun can’t sit still anymore
"Hurry, prepare the car and go to the general's mansion!"
"Yes!" The whole capital was instantly panicked. All kinds of people were seen on the streets. The guards of the capital, the Jinyi Guards, the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, and even the people from Dali Temple were dispatched one after another. There were no more people visible on the streets of the capital. The common people have gone home one by one, with their doors and windows closed, and they dare not come out!
Wang Heming looked panicked
"What's going on? A foreign invasion?"
"Quick, quick, quick... get up to the city wall, the gates are closed, no one is allowed in!" People from the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion rushed to seal all four gates of the capital, and all the soldiers got on the city wall!
The streets and alleys are all filled with soldiers or guards. Everyone only knows how to defend, but no one knows who they are going to fight. They only know that the orders from above are to defend!
Gertai hid in the room, looking at the soldiers and imperial city guards on the street outside, and didn't know what was going on for a while.
"Cam? Is this what happened? Why is martial law in the capital?"
"Prince, I don't know either! This happened all of a sudden. I heard that an army of 20,000 people came outside!" Cam said.
"What? Twenty thousand people? Where did they come from?" Gertai asked in surprise.
"Isn't that... the young master's person?" Cam asked.
"So fast?" Gertai's eyes widened in surprise. Li Yukun was also frightened when he heard that there was an invasion of the capital from outside.
"Come here, prepare my armor!" The old general is fifty years old, but he is very energetic and his strength is not inferior to that of the young people!
Aluminum alloy Rui, Li Hanqi, and Li Hanyan's brother and sister also put on armor one after another, each holding their own weapons. All the family's guards were mobilized, a total of more than two hundred people.
Li Yukun walked out of the room wearing a suit of armor, and his two sons and the girl were already ready. Liu Wuxia hurriedly chased her out and grabbed her husband's arm.
"Old man, what's going on? Why is there a war all of a sudden?"
"I don't know either. Just wait at home. I'll come as soon as I can. Someone's coming! Madam, please go back!" Li Yukun shouted.
Several maids helped Liu Wuxia back. Ziyuan also ran over with Qinglian and Litchi.
"Miss! We are here!"
"Okay!" Fang Tian's painted halberd in Li Hanyan's hand shone with a cold light. He hadn't killed someone for a long time, and this time he killed him happily!
Li Yukun came to Li Hanqi
"What's going on? Why did the enemy attack the capital despite everything going well? Could it be a Tatar ambush?"
"Impossible! There are two letters every day at the border, and there is nothing unusual on the Tatar side. It is impossible to suddenly attack so close to the capital!" Li Hanqi also had a question mark on his face!
"No matter, let's go to the city gate to guard the city immediately, and send a message to Xuanyi immediately, asking him to lead troops to support immediately!" Li Yukun shouted.
"Yes!" Li Hanrui shouted loudly
"Liu Bo, are you going to...?"
"The eldest princess has arrived!" a sharp female voice shouted.
