Late Tang Dynasty Floating Life

Whoosh!" An arrow flew out, and the enemy cavalry fell to the ground with a scream.

However, he didn't die for a while, and stood up in a panic, only to see another rider passing by, and the thick saber lightly slashed across.

Earth-shattering screams sounded.

The enemy rider's stomach was cut open, and a large stream of blood gushed out.He knelt down, trying in vain to push back the oozing intestines.Stuffed and stuffed, limp on the ground, no more sound.

Another Khitan cavalry rushed towards them, Yang Hongwang's soldiers cursed loudly, they dared to charge directly at the general, they were quite courageous.In an instant, seven or eight weapons greeted them, the heads of the Khitan cavalrymen flew into the sky, and the horses rushed out ten steps carrying the headless corpses before falling to the ground.

Seeing this, the rest of the thieves didn't dare to stay at all, and fled in all directions.

Xia Jun chased for a while, killed dozens of unlucky ghosts, and then stopped to rest.

It was an encounter, no doubt about it.

The meeting between the two parties was sudden.The Xia army was advancing suddenly, and the Khitan was on the way to retreat. Judging from their size, they seemed to be a small group of troops from a large tribe, perhaps they were part of the Khitan cavalry fleeing in embarrassment outside Xinghe City.

After interrogating the captives, the Xia people already knew that they were from the Tulubu tribe and had been scattered in the Xinghe and Yuyi areas.

In addition, the news that Babu Yili Dong Abaoji was stationed in the Sanquan area was also found out.

Along the way, Yang Hongwang weighed the pros and cons, but could not make up his mind.At this time, after defeating the thieves who were intruding into Lu Bubu, and beheading more than a hundred levels, he finally made up his mind: If you are afraid of being a bird, keep charging!
The guard brought him jerky that was as hard as a rock.Yang Hongwang took it, roasted it on the ignited fire, and then began to chew and eat.

At his feet lay a corpse.His eyes were wide open, blood was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and there were no obvious wounds on his body, so he was probably killed by a blunt instrument.

After kicking it away with one kick, he picked up the cowhide water bag and took two sips of strong wine.After drinking, he handed it to the general beside him.The general finished drinking and handed it to the soldier.

"Brother." A young man with a recognition flag on his back hurried over.

"What's the matter?" Yang Hongwang continued to eat meat without raising his head.

That was Hong Xin, the younger brother of the clan, who did not practice martial arts. He fought bravely and fiercely in Linzhou. He fought fiercely with the young men of the Zhe family. Harm others.

"I just cleaned the battlefield, and saw that a bandit chieftain was seriously injured and still alive, and he could speak official language, so I begged for it. I went to the first trial. It turned out that Abaoji sent people south to gather the scattered soldiers of the Tulubu tribe, and said that he would lead the army himself. Come to the rescue." Yang Hongxin said excitedly: "Now we have to go north, give him a vote!"

Yang Hongwang was taken aback for a moment, his face beaming with joy.

The younger brother Hongxin is only 15 years old this year, and he has such ambitions.As an older brother, how can he be compared?
"Brother..." Yang Hongxin looked at him expectantly: "If you can win a big battle in front of A Baoji, the sage will have to praise our Yang family after hearing the news? So, what is the Zhe family worth?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Yang Hongwang reprimanded.

There are two local tyrant families in Linzhou, namely the Zhe family and the Yang family.

The Zhe family has been in Linzhou since the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. It is famous for its martial arts inheritance.The Yang family is a scholarly family, a branch of the Hongnong Yang family, but after arriving in Linzhou, like most families after hardships, their children practiced martial arts in large numbers and transformed into local tyrants.

The Yang family is also very trustworthy.Yang Anzhen and Yang Anji's generation helped Shao Sheng manage Linzhou before the establishment of the Xia Dynasty. Anzhen's son Yang Yu was even more successful in official career, and had already become the Privy Envoy of Bei Ya, so he was extremely dignified.

Hongwang and Hongyin, the third generations of the Yang family, are already generals in the army, and now the younger Hongxin and Hongrong have also emerged.

Yang Hongxin was born in the first year of Tang Xizong Wende (888), and Yang Hongrong was born in the second year of Qianning (895).The former has come to the army for training, while the latter was sent to study because of his cleverness since he was a child, and planned to take care of the family business in the future - both of them are the son of Yang Han and the grandson of Yang Anzhen.

Yang Hongxin was recorded as "Yang Xin" in the history books of later generations.
Kuangyin's father, Zhao Hongyin, died in the first year of Guangshun (951) of the Later Zhou Dynasty.He had two sons, Yang Chonggui and Yang Chongxun. Chonggui joined Liu Chong in the Northern Han Dynasty and was given the name "Liu Jiye", and later changed his name to Yang Ye. He was skilled in bows and horses, and was nicknamed "Yang Wudi"; .

The Yang family in Linzhou can be regarded as an old man who started from Shao Sheng and received preferential treatment.With the current situation, it is naturally impossible to hedge your bets like in history, and you can only honestly let Daxia carry the job-you are a core member of Guanbei who is young and popular, and no one else dares to accept it.

"I have made up my mind, go east and go north!" Yang Hongwang said as he stood up.

Yang Hongxin was overjoyed, but he soon ate a chestnut.

"Go into battle, don't be rash." Yang Hongwang warned: "A Baoji is a barbarian from the eight tribes, how can he not have elite soldiers at the bottom of the box? Our army is small, if you see the bandits are fierce, don't be careless Forcibly charging, the main purpose is to disrupt the formation of the bandit army and hit the morale of the bandits. This is not the home of the Khitan people, and the bandits are eager to return, so they may not have the determination to stay and fight hard. It is a great achievement to fight steadily. My Yang family has already There is no need for monstrous achievements, and it may not be a good thing to get it.”

Yang Hongxin opened his mouth wide.It's just a fight, and there are so many twists and turns?
Yang Hongwang didn't care about him, and immediately ordered his soldiers to deliver the order.

When night fell, another team of auxiliary soldiers arrived.Yang Hongwang selected hundreds of people who dared to fight and have outstanding martial arts skills, ordered the fire to be extinguished, checked the equipment for the last time, and then quietly went north.

This walk is a full three days.On the night of August 28, the army headed east all the way and arrived at the old city of Chicheng Town.

Along the way, they also encountered many retreating Khitan soldiers and horses.

It's nothing to say, just rush forward and kill.The Khitan people ran away in a hurry, they didn't know how many Xia soldiers were chasing after them, they didn't have much intention to fight with you, so they only resisted for a while, and then took advantage of the complicated terrain to escape.

The Silver Gun Army is not chasing after them.Only clean the battlefield, gather horses, collect dry food and weapons, thinking of a long-term battle plan.

After doing all this, they continued northward regardless of everything, and rushed straight to Sanquan.

On the 29th, Abaoji personally led Khan's army, Xi and slave troops with more than [-] horses and rode south to the old city of Yuyi Town.After hearing the news brought by the rout, he immediately ordered to speed up the march.

******
On the smoky prairie, mountains of different heights rose abruptly.

The mountains are shrouded in clouds and mists, and the streams are gurgling.

What's more, the towering giant tree that has grown for hundreds of years stands majestically on the top of the mountains, like gods and gods, indifferently looking down on all living beings on the earth.

Yang Hongxin rushed to the foot of the mountain with more than a hundred riders.

As far as the eye can see, there are two mountain peaks facing each other.The mountain is very steep, the cliff is so high that it is difficult to climb.

There is a canyon between the two mountains.The canyon is not wide, and there is a river winding out in the middle, which takes up most of the space.

Yang Hongxin knew that this was Gushui, a well-known river in Yanbei.

Standing between the water are two piles of broken walls that have collapsed for hundreds of years.According to historical records, this is the Guancheng built in the Later Wei Dynasty, and it has long been submerged in the grass and trees.

At that time it was called Dugu Gate, but now it is called Longmen Cliff, but they all mean the same thing.This is an important road leading to Ruyuan, Tanshan and even flat pine forests.

"Put on all Jialu." Khitan rangers appeared in front of them in twos and threes. Yang Hong was anxious in confidence and ordered immediately.

I didn't say anything to the Yang family who came over, and immediately started to wear it.Dozens of silver gun soldiers did not despise this young man, and finished dressing in silence.

The Silver Spear Army is light cavalry with very little armor, and most of them wear leather armor.Although Guanbei's leather armor is very famous, and the top-level one has strong protection, but if you really want to go into battle, everyone still chooses the iron armor.

"Go!" Yang Hongxin stringed the cavalier's bow, and rushed out first.

The Khitan rangers on the opposite side also spotted them.For some reason, they changed their previous avoidance and rushed over.

"Looking for death!" Yang Hongxin was so angry that he dared to resist
!
The young man was impatient, so he rode a bow and fired three arrows in a row, but only one hit.He was so angry that he threw his bow on the ground, drew out his lance, and charged forward, only one pick, and one fell off the horse.

Yang's Trilogy and the cavalry of the Silver Spear Army also followed.The crowd shouted loudly, their courage was unstoppable, and with a single charge, they drove more than ten Khitan knights down the river.

Yang Hongxin was in high spirits, and after stabbing the two of them to death with two consecutive shots, he saw a man who looked like a Khitan chieftain fleeing wildly on his horse, he gritted his teeth and chased after him.

The Khitan man had a feathered arrow stuck in his left arm, and he wobbled as he walked, which looked very funny.

Yang Hongxin urged the horse desperately, holding the spear in his right hand, and desperately moved forward.

The escaped Khitan man looked back and saw the gun head behind him, so frightened that his ghosts froze, he desperately grabbed his horse's belly and ran northward.

Yang Hongxin didn't care about taking care of the horse anymore, he urged the horse to the extreme speed, and the spear with his right hand went forward again.Grass, or almost!
The Khitan people didn't dare to look back, they just ran away with their heads sullen.

Yang Hongxin was so angry that he took out a sword from his saddle bag and threw it out as a throwing weapon.

The horse was bumping, and Yang Hongxin had never practiced spear throwing professionally, but this time he missed the Khitan chief, but hit the horse's ass like a ghost.

The horse wailed in pain.The Khitan chief might as well have such an accident, he was frantically manipulating the horses.

Yang Hongxin caught up with the enemy, stabbed with his gun in a blink of an eye, and the Khitan fell to the ground with a scream.

"Haha!" The boy laughed happily.

After rushing for a long distance, he turned around again, dismounted, drew out the iron mace, walked up to the dying Khitan chief, and smashed it down fiercely under his terrified eyes.

"Pfft!" The thief's head split open like a watermelon.

"Good thief, let me chase you for so long." Yang Hongxin said bitterly, wiping his face to wipe away the red and white dirt.

After killing the thief, he took a breath, turned around, and gathered their horses.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the vast basin grassland at the northern foot of the mountain, and was stunned.

So many people! So many Khitan thieves!
