An army of about 20,000 soldiers appeared on Luoyang's main road.
However, these 20,000 soldiers were different from the Great Sui's army.
First, let's talk about the cavalry at the front of the team.
There were a total of 10,000 cavalrymen. Whether it was the horses on which the cavalrymen rode or the cloaks and armor they wore, they were all as black as ink.
The cavalrymen were equipped with spears, a quiver of arrows and a large bow on their backs, and a Tang sword at their waists.
His entire body was covered in armor, and even his face was covered by a strange mask. It could be said that he was fully armed from head to toe, and only a pair of cold eyes were exposed.
If one were to look into those pitch-black pupils, one would feel a strong sense of suffocation. It was as if a bone-chilling killing intent was strangling one's throat, making it impossible for one to breathe.
The other cavalrymen seemed to be fully armed, but they were a group of light armored cavalrymen. From the dark skin of the horses they rode, one could see the distinct lines of muscles.
With every run, the muscles of the warhorse would contract and relax vigorously. It was not difficult to see how much running power the warhorse had.
At this moment, he looked at the infantry behind the cavalry.
The infantrymen donned three layers of heavy armor and iron helmets, each carrying fifty bolts and a heavy crossbow weighing 120 jin.
He held a long spear in his right hand, a heavy shield in his left hand, and a Tang sword at his waist.
Their steps were orderly, and each step could bring about a heavy dull sound and the sound of heavy armor shaking.
The 10,000 infantrymen looked ahead with apathetic expressions. The 10,000 cavalrymen gave off a suffocating feeling.
These 10,000 infantrymen gave off a pressure like a mountain. This pressure made people feel as if they would be smashed into pieces by these infantrymen in the next second.
In front of the elite army, there was a white-robed scholar leading them, which seemed a little out of place.
This was Fang Xuanling, who had received the order and led 10,000 soldiers of the Black Armor Army and Sui Wu.
The army headed straight for Luoyang. As they approached Luoyang, they were discovered by the guards at the city gates. Immediately, the guards at the city gates gathered together and looked nervously at this foreign army.
When the army approached and saw the black armor and the cold eyes exposed to the outside, as well as the heavy sound brought by the heavy armor, Luoyang seemed to suffocate in an instant.
"I am Fang Xuanling, the head of the Protectorate, and I have come under the orders of the imperial grandson.”
Fang Xuanling shouted and showed the imperial grandson's order.
With the handwritten order and the seal of the imperial grandson, this matter naturally could not be faked.
" Is it the Western Ocean Army led by the Royal Grand Sun?"
The city defense general heaved a sigh of relief and followed the rules.
The black-armored cavalrymen were stationed outside the city while Fang Xuanling was led by the City Defense Army to the palace. After arriving at the Imperial Palace, he was led by the special internal supervisor to the Eastern Palace.
Yang Ji was now the grand grandson of the emperor, so his residence was naturally the Eastern Palace.
Upon arriving at the Eastern Palace, Fang Xuanling received permission to enter the main hall.
"This subject Fang Xuanling greets His Highness the Imperial Grand Sun.”
Yang Ji gave Fang Xuanling a futon.
"Ten thousand black-armored soldiers and ten thousand Sui soldiers have been brought here.”
Fang Xuanling said as he sat on the futon.
"Yes."
Yang Ji nodded slightly. With the arrival of the 20,000-strong trump card army and the current West Ocean army, there were a total of 40,000 super strong troops.
Among them, 20,000 of them were trump cards, and their combat strength was even higher than that of the West Ocean army.
Although the Sui soldiers were heavy armored infantrymen, they could carry three days 'worth of battle rations. They could walk more than a hundred miles in half a day, and they could still maintain their combat strength after marching three hundred miles.
It could be seen how terrifying Sui Wuzu's combat strength was.
As for the black-armored army, it was needless to say that each of them was an elite. Moreover, they were highly mobile in battle. They were as swift as the wind, and their attacks were as fierce as fire. Their battle prowess was beyond imagination.
In addition, with Yang Ji's current prestige and power, he could also mobilize the troops stationed in Bingzhou and Taiyuan. In addition to the troops in the Hexi Corridor, there were many troops in the entire North that could be mobilized.
"It's time to start dealing with the internal strife."
Yang Ji narrowed his eyes slightly. After the crisis at Yanmen Pass ended, it was time to start dealing with the internal strife.
……
In the royal court, before the court session began.
This was the first court meeting since the Emperor left the Eastern Capital.
Now that the one presiding over the court meeting was the imperial grandson who had been bestowed with great power, the court meeting this time was somewhat different.
The important officials of the court arrived one after another, such as Yuwen Huaji, Yu Shiji, Li Yuan, and the others, who were already standing in their respective ranks.
After a while, the other officials arrived one after another. After the officials had gathered, they remained silent and waited for the arrival of the imperial grandson.
Ta Ta.
Footsteps sounded from the royal passage, and then the imperial grandson wearing a golden robe with four dragons and five claws walked out under the escort of the inner supervisor.
"Ascension!"
Walking to the center of the court, the Head of Internal Affairs shouted, and the court session began.
As he was the imperial grandson, he couldn't sit on the throne. He should be sitting below it.
Therefore, the internal supervisor specially placed the position of the imperial grandson below the throne. This was a position second only to the position of the 95, which corresponded to Yang Ji's identity.
"Greetings, Your Highness."
The ministers cupped their hands and bowed.
Yang Ji nodded slightly. The ceremony between monarch and subject could be considered to have ended here.
Next, the court session officially began.
The officials below, led by Yuwen Huaji and the others, were all secretly guessing what His Highness would say in the court today.
"His Royal Highness has dispatched troops from the West Sea to Luoyang. I'm afraid that what the court is going to discuss today is related to pacifying the situation in the north.”
Yuwen Huaji guessed.
Now that the external threat had been temporarily resolved, it was indeed time to stabilize the internal affairs. After all, internal affairs were the fatal cause of the current turmoil in the Great Sui Dynasty.
Since the Emperor was so assured that he would hand over all the power of the Northern Lands to the Imperial Grandson, then the Imperial Grandson would definitely deal with the rebellion in the Northern Lands from the very beginning.
"Everyone, there are rebellions in the country, causing internal turmoil. Now is the time to deal with this matter.”
Yang Ji deliberately dragged out his tone.
On the battlefield, he was the royal family's War God who had won every battle. However, in the imperial court, he sat on the throne and looked down at the officials below with his starry eyes. He had the appearance of an emperor.
His words and actions were not unfamiliar at all. Instead, they were extremely familiar.
This surprised the ministers.
"What do you think we should do against the rebel forces in the Central Plains?”
Yang Ji asked with narrowed eyes.
The matter to be discussed in court today was this.
The ministers did not immediately reply. Instead, they lowered their heads and fell into deep thought.
There were many rebel forces in the Central Plains, and it would not be easy to quell the rebellion. As a result, the matter of quelling the rebellion was somewhat tricky.
