The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Ten days later.

In the Taiji Hall, Cheng Yaojin was reporting to the emperor on the training situation in the army.

The Bei Ya Forbidden Army, which is responsible for guarding Chang'an City, is the emperor's private army stationed north of the palace city, with the main responsibility of protecting the emperor and the royal family.

Their elite level is naturally inferior to that of the Xuanjia Army.

But the combat effectiveness is also top-notch.

Otherwise, the emperor would not let them serve as private soldiers to protect the emperor and the royal family.

A few days ago, the emperor received letters of credence from several neighboring countries such as Goguryeo, Baekje, Seoyando, and Wa.

He said that he wanted to send an envoy to the Tang Dynasty to pay his respects.

Although it was said to be a visit, the biggest reason was actually to spy on Datang's intelligence.

The Tang Dynasty was now rich and powerful, so it was natural that it was not afraid of the spying of these envoys.

But the demeanor of a great country still needs to be shown to the envoys.

Just like now, the emperor sent Cheng Yaojin to train the Beiya Imperial Army.

After the envoys from various countries arrived, the emperor prepared to launch a massive military parade.

So that these envoys from small countries with ulterior motives can open their eyes.

But now, Cheng Yaojin told the emperor that the training performance of the Beiya Imperial Army was extremely poor.

If he took off his armor and weapons, he would definitely be mistaken for a country farmer.

"As you know, the Beiya Imperial Guards are the military parade troops appointed by me. Envoys from various countries will arrive in Chang'an in one month."

"I don't care what method you use, you must train them to gain momentum."

"When I saw them, I was shocked from the bottom of my heart." Li Shimin said to Cheng Yaojin slowly with cold eyes.

Li Shimin felt a little regretful.

If it were more than a month ago, I wouldn't have thrown Zhao Chen to the front line of Songzhou.

Maybe he has some good training methods.

But now, it's too late to say anything.

Even if Zhao Chen is handed back now, there is still not enough time.

"Your Majesty, I apologize for my incompetence. I really can't think of any good training methods."

"If the soldiers go out to fight, they will all be good men, but His Majesty wants them to have a shocking momentum when they are walking, sir..." Cheng Yaojin looked confused.

"Can't you think of more solutions?" Li Shimin was a little unhappy.

As the emperor, shouldn't I just arrange tasks for you and then you can carry them out?

Why, do you need him as the emperor to come up with a solution?

Cheng Yaojin said nothing.

If he had his way, why would he still need to tell the emperor these useless things?

Li Shimin glared at Cheng Yaojin fiercely, then his eyes fell on Li Jing and said, "Pharmacist, haven't you been writing military books these days? Are there any good training methods?"

Li Jing finally came to Tai Chi Hall today.

Originally, he wanted to confirm with the emperor the specific date of the marriage between Zhao Chen and his daughter Li Ruoshuang.

The day chosen at the beginning of the year is the Dragon Boat Festival.

As a result, because Zhao Chen went to Wannian County and there were many things going on there, the emperor directly decided to wait until some time later.

It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, so it's time to celebrate.

Li Jing is getting older, and now he wants to hold his grandson as soon as possible.

When the emperor suddenly asked him how to train, Li Jing was stunned for a while.

He has been writing military books these days, but most of them are about specific details of command and operations.

It didn't say how the soldiers would be trained. The momentum of the soldiers was not the same.

This time, Li Jing's shortcomings were asked.

Li Jing was stunned on the spot.

The scene was a little awkward.

Cheng Yaojin looked at the emperor and clearly saw the emperor's

His expression became increasingly difficult to look at.

"Your Majesty, most of the military books written by me are about specific battles. Regarding the momentum of training soldiers, it is really..." Li Jing was slightly embarrassed, but he spoke frankly.

At his age and status, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

"Your Majesty, if my son-in-law Zhao Chen is here, maybe there will be a good solution, but..." Li Jing said to the emperor again.

Li Jing directly made the emperor unhappy.

If Zhao Chen were here, wouldn't he have gone to him to find a solution?

Isn’t what you, Li Jing, are talking nonsense now?

"Hey, Duke Wei is right. If Duke Zhao is here, he will definitely find a way."

"That's not true. Although Duke Zhao is young, his knowledge is far beyond what we can match."

"It's a pity that Duke Zhao went to the Songzhou border, otherwise..."

All the officials shook their heads.

At this moment, many people seemed to be thinking of Zhao Chen.

Little did they know that when Zhao Chen was in the court, all these guys wanted to kick Zhao Chen.

Li Shimin's face turned blue.

These guys...

"Your Majesty, Songzhou frontline commander Niu Jinda and commander Liu Lan both submitted reports." The eunuch rushed in from outside the palace, holding a folding book and a small book in his hand.

"What happened in Songzhou again?"

"Last time, Duke Zhao led the Xuanjia Army and wiped out a thousand Tubo cavalry. This time he won't..."

"Hey, what's the use of saying this? The most urgent task now is to train the soldiers' momentum, otherwise..."

"Yes, yes, this military parade is a time to show the power of our Tang Dynasty soldiers. We cannot let people from small countries look down upon us."

"But, this training method..."

The officials shook their heads again.

\u003e

What they are most concerned about now is how to train soldiers, otherwise the emperor will not be in a hurry with them?

Li Shimin sat on it and heard the report from Songzhou.

He was also stunned at the moment.

He was thinking, could it be that Zhao Chen caused some big trouble for him in Songzhou?

Thinking of this, Li Shimin felt a headache, waved his hand and said, "Just read it."

"Yes." The eunuch accepted the order and slowly unfolded two memorials.

"Since I was ordered to guard Songzhou last year, I have been worried day and night. I don't dare to forget His Majesty's earnest expectations. I will repay His Majesty with my life."

"The border is dangerous, and soldiers should die to defend it. However, if there is proper training, how many people in the Tang Dynasty will survive."

"Wannian County Duke Zhao Chen created a novel training method. When they first saw him, I and the commander-in-chief Liu Lan were shocked."

"The formation of a thousand people moves like thunder across the border. Looking from a distance, you can feel the blood surging."

"Fuwei Tian'en, I have discussed with Duke Wannian, and hereby present this training method to Your Majesty."

"There is only one thing. Duke Wannian has discussed with his ministers. The training losses are quite large and the army is short of meat. So I asked your majesty to allow the sheep obtained from the mutual trade to be kept in the army for the training of the soldiers."

"Your Majesty is so kind, I will never forget it until my death. I wish your Majesty a prosperous future."

"Chen Niu Xiu, it's the first day of the seventh month in the tenth year of Zhenguan."

Niu Jinda's single name is Xiu, and Jinda is his surname.

"Your Majesty, the reading is over!" The eunuch finished reading Niu Jinda's memorial and looked at the emperor.

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor seemed to look much better.

Faintly, there was also a hint of a smile.

"Come here, show me what kind of training method you have."

"I'm quite curious about what kind of training method can make an array of thousands of people move like thunder." Li Shimin waved to the young eunuch and said.
