Even those aristocratic family officials who have never dealt with Li forget worry dare not neglect the ceremony of the army's departure.
The so-called national event is to worship and Rong.
No one dares to joke about the army.
Taichang Qing Wang Ying looked solemn and prayed to heaven: "Sima sent flags to the people, lined up in a flat array, like Chen of war... He was driven by the field, and there was a secretary who swore to the people! Drums, so he was banned; fire fraud, offering birds to sacrifice..."
Li Er solemnly handed the fish symbol to Li QIAOYOU in the sound of drum music.
Before the Jin Dynasty, most of the soldiers in the army were tiger symbols, but in the Sui Dynasty they used scales instead. In order to avoid the taboo of Li Yuan's father Li Hu, Datang changed the tiger symbol into a fish symbol and a rabbit symbol.
Later, tortoise talisman appeared, and even cattle talisman was used as military talisman in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Until the Southern Song Dynasty, in order to revive the monarchy, it was changed into tiger Fu again.
Li forgot to worry. He knelt on one knee and took the Golden Fish Charm with both hands, but he felt very heavy. Since then, the lives of hundreds of thousands of Datang officers and men have been entrusted to him.
"The whole army set out!" Li Qieyou bowed to Li Er again, turned to sa Luzi, and headed for the rosefinch door.
The dandies and 2000 Yi Weixiao riders turned over and mounted their horses, followed by them.
When the rumble of horse hoofs rang through the rosefinch street, it attracted the people's thunderous cheers.
In the eyes of the Tang people, the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty was invincible, and the people cheered as if it was not an army going to war, but a triumphant return.
"Ziyou, if you can't return here with all your skills, your brothers will have no face to come back and see the Jiangdong people!" Chumo waved to the people on both sides of Zhuque Avenue, urged his horse to Li forgetful's side, and whispered.
Before Li forgot to worry, Fang Yiai replied disdainfully, "brother Chumo, you're just worrying about nothing. With those weak chickens in the western regions, 150000 troops can drown them with one mouthful of saliva. If you want to resist my Tang iron cavalry, it's like a mantis blocking the car. You don't measure your strength!"
"Yes, that's the truth. It's reasonable to leave love!" the dandies coaxed.
In their view, the western expedition was a little bitter, but it was a purely gilded journey and there was no risk at all.
Li Qieyou shook his head.
"Brothers, you must not underestimate the enemy like this. The troops of the western countries are not worth mentioning, but brothers, don't forget why your majesty sent 150000 troops?"
Chai Ling frowned when he thought about his martial arts strategy: "Ziyou, you mean Turks?"
Li forgot to worry and nodded: "yes! Your majesty sent the 15th army to conquer the western regions. The Turks are on guard."
His remark was not alarmist.
In history, Li Er sent Hou Junji to lead 150000 troops to conquer gaochangguo in order to frighten the Turks.
Although the eastern Turks were destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, Jieli Khan was captured, and the Western Turks were divided, their strength was greatly damaged. However, the northern Turks have always been the enemy of Datang.
At the end of the year and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, according to recorded data, the Turks attacked the Central Plains as many as 67 times.
In this case, it is not surprising that Li Er and the officials of the court regard the Turks as the number one enemy.
Even if Li forgot to worry and presented a map to let Li Er know the threat of Tubo, anyway, the Turks are still the enemy that Datang needs to guard against most.
In fact, Li forgot to worry about whether the Turks would come to make trouble when the western expedition army attacked the western regions.
Although in history, Zhenguan attacked Gaochang for 14 years, with good wind and water, but now it is five years in Zhenguan. Who can guarantee that the Turks will not produce any moths?
Although he was eager to settle Gao Changguo, and then rushed back to Chang'an to have children with his daughter-in-law, now that he has accepted the important task, he must not be careless.
If, for his personal reasons, the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty is defeated, Li forgets to worry. I'm afraid he will have a hard conscience all his life.
After instructing the dandies not to take it lightly, two thousand men and horses galloped towards the northwest.
Chang'an is only 500 miles away from Jingzhou. Li forgets to worry that they have new military food. They don't need logistics at all. They march light. Therefore, they move very fast. It took only three days to get to Jingzhou.
Niu JINDA and Xue Wanjun had already received the news and went out of the city 30 miles early to meet Li forgetful and his party.
Li forgets worry and can't help feeling a little frightened. Although they are nominally deputy chief executives now, Niu JINDA and Xue Wanjun are both his elders.
By his Niu JINDA, his legitimate sons Niu Zhengping and Li forget worry, as well as a group of dandies, who are brothers.
Niu JINDA is a legitimate son, but because of foot disease, he basically has no possibility of official career development. It is estimated that he can only inherit Niu JINDA's title in the future.
Therefore, Niu JINDA also saw very clearly that the key to his son's thinking well after his death lies in Li forgetful worry and these dandies.
In a few years, after Li forgetful sorrow was born, Niu JINDA, who knew Li forgetful sorrow, became the founder of the county, which made Niu JINDA admire it.
Even in Niu JINDA's view, if Li forgets worry and is not too young, based on his achievements, he should at least be the founding Duke.
Although Xue Wanjun is not familiar with Li forget you, he also understands Li forget you's ability and status. For Xue Wanjun, he paid more attention to Li forgetful as a prince, emperor and teacher, and His Majesty's nephew.
But in any case, neither Niu JINDA nor Xue Wanjun put on the airs of elders in front of Li forgetful worry, but really regarded himself as his subordinates.
After seeing Li forget you, Niu JINDA and Xue Wanjun immediately bent down and saluted, but Li forget you immediately jumped off the horse and helped them.
"Uncle Niu, general Xue, don't be so polite. It's really annoying."
Niu JINDA said with a loud smile, "it's not like in Chang'an City, the army has its own rules. The chief manager must not be polite. Just tell me to wait."
"Uncle Niu is very kind. You know, my nephew, the chief manager of the March, was driven by his majesty and had to fight for him. But when it comes to marching and fighting, it's the first time for my little lady to get on the cart. Therefore, I'd like to ask Uncle Niu and general Xue to point out what's wrong with me."
Li forgets to worry. He is not the kind of person whose eyes are higher than the top. He knows what his strengths and weaknesses are.
He's a layman in marching and fighting. Even if he hangs up with a marching chief manager, he'd better not join in at random.
Professional matters are left to professionals.
This is also the management method that his beautiful boss taught him face-to-face before he set out.
In Su Changqing's view, there is no difference between managing a 150000 strong western expedition and managing a large company.
Even if Li forgets worry, the "chairman" doesn't understand anything, but if he uses the right person, there is no danger.
For Li forget worry, the simplest is to delegate power.
Just leave all military affairs to Niu JINDA and Xue Wanjun.
Moreover, it is impossible for the 150000 army to advance in a swarm. It must be divided into three major armies: the front, the middle and the rear.
At that time, Xue Wanjun will lead the vanguard, Niu JINDA will be in charge of the central army, and he, Li forgetful, will slowly press down with the rear army.
In history, before Hou Junji's army arrived, the forward army led by Xue Wanjun had scared the king of Gaochang to death and attacked Gaochang city.
After Li Qieyou and others arrived in Jingzhou and rested for a day, 150000 troops finally pulled out again and headed for the western regions
