Hundreds of soldiers were standing by the dock, and a large number of Guizhou leaders were recruited.
After the warship docked.
In the dim light of the morning, accompanied by the chirping of birds and the melodious sound of ship whistles, hundreds of soldiers gathered in the open space on the shore of the pier.
They wore the standard armor of the Polu army, and their weapons shone brightly in the sun.
The soldiers stood shoulder to shoulder, with firm eyes and uniformity, forming an impenetrable line of defense.
A tall general wearing the armor of a senior general ran over and knelt down on one knee.
The soldiers immediately shouted in unison, and the sound shook the air, as if even the earth was shaking.
This is their admiration and respect for Wu'anhou. From their eyes and their voices, we can see their deep respect and firm loyalty to Wu'anhou.
"Welcome Marquis Wu'an!!!"
"Welcome Marquis Wu'an!!!"
"Welcome Marquis Wu'an!!!"
Yang Qian, wearing a luxurious robe and a long crown, walked out of the warship with square steps.
Not only did his charming face not feel out of place, but with the blessing of his aura, he had a solemn face and wise eyes.
Because it was early in the morning, a big sun was rising slowly behind Yang Qian, supporting him like a god, making it impossible for people to look directly at him.
He nodded slightly, the respect of the soldiers reflected back to him, and then he raised his hand, waving it with great authority.
"Thump thump!"
A large number of Guizhou officials recruited to build the wharf, as well as the people watching the excitement, knelt down involuntarily.
"I am waiting for you, the common people, to see Marquis Wu'an."
"I'm waiting for the merchants to see Marquis Wu'an."
"I'm waiting for the county soldiers to see Marquis Wu'an."
According to the etiquette of this era, when the scholar-official class met with the king, they would adopt a sitting posture, the so-called "kneeling", to show respect for the king.
But this is not the same as kneeling in the modern sense.
In today's era, kneeling is a solemn etiquette to show respect for the other person, but it is not the same as kneeling and kowtow.
At the same time, due to the cultural and etiquette habits at this time, kneeling was not the only way for Xia soldiers to salute the princes and kings.
Therefore, the specific way Xia soldiers saluted the princes and kings may vary depending on the region, culture and time, but generally speaking, kneeling is a solemn etiquette adopted by the scholar-official class when meeting the king, but it is not the same as the modern etiquette. Kneeling in the sense.
Yang Qian hated kneeling, and of course it was almost impossible to see kneeling in this era. Later, he negotiated with Xinhuo Academy.
In ordinary times, you only need to nod and cup your hands. On important occasions, you can bend down, beat your chest or kneel down on one knee to salute.
But who would have thought that when they saw Yang Qian, the generals, soldiers, people, merchants, and craftsmen all involuntarily knelt down on one knee.
Yang Qian's anger sank into his dantian, all his strength was concentrated, his lips were lightly opened, but his voice was deafening.
"Everyone, free of charge!"
"Thank you, Marquis Wu'an!"
Yang Qian frowned slightly, his mouth bursting with spring thunder.
"Everyone, when you see me from now on, there is no need to kneel down. We, the Xia people, stand upright to the sky and the earth. We only need to bow as usual. We only kneel down to our parents, the kings of heaven and earth."
"promise!"
"I will obey the order of Marquis Wu'an!"
Looking at Yang Gan, who was not tall, everyone's eyes were filled with ardent admiration, and even fanaticism appeared in the eyes of some soldiers.
What they study and read every day are all about the achievements of Marquis Wu'an, not only military achievements, but also internal affairs achievements.
What they talk about most every day is how talented and domineering Marquis Wu'an is.
Every day, people from the Tianshou Division would tell them about their basic necessities, food, clothing, housing, and transportation, including the pardon of family members' slave status and the distribution of military merits after meritorious service.
All of this was given by Marquis Wu'an.
With Marquis Wu'an, they have everything. Otherwise, they have nothing.
Otherwise, with their military exploits, they would not even have a chance to remove their family members from slavery.
What's surprising is that not only the soldiers, but also a large number of common people, merchants, and craftsmen around them saluted.
Obviously, Yang Gan's reputation has reached a terrifying level.
When General Gao first saw Marquis Wu'an, even when he stood up, he kept holding his hand, not daring to do anything wrong.
This is a legendary figure. Although I have spoken to him, I have never seen him before.
"Are you Gao Kaiyu?"
Gao Kaiyu's eyes suddenly widened.
"Hou, do you know me, Mr. Hou?"
Yang Gan smiled and said.
"I haven't seen it before, but I know that you led 25,000 cavalry, attacked thousands of miles, beheaded others, and rescued hundreds of women from the Xia Kingdom, as well as other women from the Western Regions."
"During the opponent's pursuit, they also wiped out all 10,000 of the opponent's cavalry. It's really impressive!"
Yang Gan listed all of this man's achievements in one sentence, as if they were treasures from his family.
Gao Kaiyu immediately said excitedly.
"I didn't expect that I, a little general who fights against bandits, would be remembered by the Marquis as the last general, the last general~~~~"
At this point, Gao Kaiyu was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and his body was in tears.
Originally, he was just a general who was not in the order, the lowest existence. Now after being promoted, he has become a general from the original guard. Even if he is a partial general, he is still a general.
It's a through train.
In Yuntong's military position, no matter how powerful you are, it depends on your military merit, but your military merit can only make you below a general at most.
Generals and above not only require military merit, but also certain commanding abilities. A big-headed soldier will never become a general, and a general without tactics and strategic vision will be a disaster for a large army.
At this time.
One by one, the horse-drawn boats opened slowly.
"Tap tap tap tap!" the voice suddenly exploded.
Groups of heavily armored cavalry, armed almost to the teeth and with their faces covered, like giant steel beasts, slowly disembarked from the boat.
When all the people disembarked, a hundred heavily armed Tiger and Cavalry cavalry, like ferocious chariots, stood there so quietly, giving people an unshakable and unrivaled strong vision.
When the rhinoceros got off the horse boat, the whole boat felt a little higher.
Yang Gan got on the carriage, and a hundred tiger troops directly protected the carriage.
Gao Kaiyu, who was a little proud at first, suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
This kind of cavalry is really terrifying. The aura they exude is stronger than the one who beheaded 70,000 to 80,000 Huns.
The instinct that climbed out of the dead man pile told him that once he faced such a cavalry, he would not be able to defeat him even if the number was ten times the opponent's.
Of course, it is impossible for the heavy cavalry to fight the attacking light cavalry, but Wu Anhou still has the Wind Royal Army in his hands, which is the strongest light cavalry in the entire Yuntong system.
If the Wind Guards are aggressive, their dog fighting skills are even more powerful than those of the Huns, and they can kite the opponent's cavalry alive in a very short period of time until they are killed.
Unfortunately, what Gao Kaiyu didn't know was that the training of the Tiger Ben Army used a lot of new training methods from all over the world, both ancient and modern, as well as countless amounts of money.
If anyone thinks that the Huben Army is just a simple heavy cavalry, they are not far from death.
Gao Kaiyu cupped his hands to Yang Qian, who was sitting next to the window sill.
"Master Marquis, I wonder if I am lucky enough to be in this humble position and escort your car!"
"no!"
Gao Kaiyu's smile suddenly froze, and his mood became visibly depressed.
"Come up!"
Sima Cuo, who was next to him, had a smile on his face through his mask. The Marquis had never let anyone down.
"What?"
Gao Kaiyu was immediately stunned by Yang Qian's words.
Sima Cuo smiled.
"General Gao, the Marquis invites you to get in the car and accompany you."
General Gao immediately waved his hands, "Mo, how can General Mo have such qualifications?"
A cold snort rang out, "They are all martial artists, and I also came down from the battlefield. Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, if you don't come up, if you don't come up, I'm going to beat someone."
Yang Qian's words were unspeakably vulgar. If the scholar-bureaucrats heard them, they would be criticized verbally and in writing.
But Gao Kaiyu's eyes lit up. This kind of speaking tone was what he liked.
After dismounting, he got directly into the carriage.
After entering the carriage, Gao Kaiyu was dazzled by the girls.
I have to say that the ladies of the Marquis are so beautiful that their eyes are blinding.
But he didn't have any evil intentions at all. It was rumored that most of the Marquis's women were very capable of fighting, and ordinary generals were almost no match for them.
Yang Qian sat at the front of the car and took out the folding table. Jiang Lan quickly took out the coal stove and tea.
Yang Qian waved his hand directly.
"Master Hou, you don't want to eat chala?"
Yang Gan glared at her angrily.
"How can I have tea with a military commander on a hot day? Go get some cold beer!"
"promise!"
When the beer was brought over, the bottle was still giving off a hint of cold air.
Gao Kaiyu couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, "Master Hou, this beer is very cold."
Yang Gan smiled.
"I know that many of your generals like to have sex with generals, but it's not good to get drunk at ordinary times. Some generals have gradually started to drink beer."
"But you also know that the production of beer is limited. In addition to the large supply army, it is almost sold at sky-high prices on the market."
How could Gao Kaiyu not know that he had been craving for it for a long time.
The annual salary in Yuntong County is similar to that of the Chaotang, but there are a lot of added subsidies and you need to meet some predetermined conditions.
For example, clocking in to work, working overtime and other things, the principle is that the more work you do, the more you will get.
In addition to money and food, the most coveted products are various industrial products.
Due to production constraints, it is already difficult to supply these products to the military. You can imagine how scarce they are on the market.
This has led to many generals paying more attention to the share of monthly reward products, such as general liquor, beer, soap and the like.
The higher the level, the greater the variety and quantity.
Of course, some generals would go to the market to sell their share if they couldn't use up their quota, and then after exchanging it for wine, some generals even began to barter for things within their own circles.
Some generals who like to enjoy themselves during the holidays don't have enough money. If they sell some good things, they will naturally have enough money.
Looking at Gao Kaiyu's appearance, Yang Gan smiled.
"You are now a great hero who led the army to behead 78,000 Huns. I have enough beer during the time I am in Taihuang County."
"Thank you, Lord Marquis."
