The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 748
In the early morning of the next day, at the foot of Xiqing Mountain, [-] Qiang warriors stood in front of the garrison camp.

Tuo Bahong came to Yang Yu with a group of Qiang heroes. Beside him were five burly youths who looked like a steel tower, with a beast-like aura in their bodies, and a black horse spear in their hands. Under the sun, it was glowing with splendor.

Tuobahong introduced: "My Majesty, this is the son of a humble official named Tuobafeng, and he is also the number one warrior of our Qiang nationality."

"The last general, Tuo Bafeng, sees His Majesty." Tuo Bafeng saluted respectfully.

"General Tuoba is exempt from the ceremony." Yang Tong took a closer look, and found that it was the young warrior holding the flag yesterday.It's just that seeing this beast-like man is polite and polite, like a scribe who has read poetry and books, there is a sense of nondescript, and I feel amused in my heart,

"Thank you, my lord." Tuo Bafeng stood up straight.

"The number one warrior of the Qiang nationality, your martial arts should not be too bad." Yang Tong looked at this young man exuding the aura of a beast, and said with a smile: "After my assessment, you are the General Huben of this army."

"But I don't know how the Holy Majesty will assess the junior general?" Tuo Bafeng did not hide the fighting spirit in his eyes.

"If you can pick me up twenty times, you've passed!" Yang Tong waved his lance and said calmly, "Come on."

"The sage accepts the move." Although Tuo Bafeng learned the Chinese etiquette, he is a Qiang after all, and has always maintained the unique unruly temperament of a minority. When Yang Tong said this, a flash of shame and anger flashed across his face, and he shouted angrily. With a sound, Ma Qian tore through the air, and appeared in front of Yang Tong in an instant.

Yang Tong tilted his hand to hear Li Tianqiang, and there was a fierce spark between him and Ma Qian. There was a loud 'Dang' sound, which made many people's ears buzzing.

"The strength is strong and the speed is not bad, but I don't know how the skill is, so continue." Yang Tong's eyes flashed a look of approval, and the split sky spear in his hand brought a cloud of spears to Tuo Bafeng.

Tuobafeng snorted coldly, and Ma Qiang leaned towards Lie Tianqiang, but the collision he imagined did not happen, Lie Tianqiang and the opponent's Ma Qiang broke apart at the touch of each other, and Yang Yu's Taiji energy almost made Tuoba Feng I stumbled.

"Be serious, otherwise you won't be able to catch Shihe." Yang Tong said.

"Your Majesty, be careful." Tuobafeng's eyes were more solemn, and the horse spear in his hand repeatedly stabbed out like a dragon.

"Use all your strength." Yang Tong accelerated suddenly, and Lie Tianqiang flashed afterimages in the air.

"Okay, please be careful, my lord." Tuo Bafeng didn't hold back his hand anymore, and Ma Qian faced Qian Litian heavily. He didn't know the characteristics of Tai Chi at all. Also stronger.

clang!clang!
In the blink of an eye, the two had already fought for more than ten rounds, fighting fiercely.

The astonishing power left the Qiang people stunned.

Their strength has not reached this level, but it can also be seen that although Tuo Bafeng's offensive is like a storm, he still cannot break through the circles he drew at random.But Yang Tong has been only defending and not attacking, and he is able to see and take down moves with ease and ease, giving people the feeling that adults are playing with children, which also makes the Qiang people very frustrated.

This is exactly Yang Tong's intention in proposing the assessment. The ethnic minorities advocate force and respect the strong. As long as they defeat their first warrior, the team will be easy to lead.

At the [-]th turn, Yang Tong's aura changed, exuding a frightening edge, when the two sides were about to get close, Li Tianqiang pierced Tuobafeng's chest violently like a bolt of lightning.

Tuoba Feng hurriedly fought, and immediately made a crisp sound of 'dang'.He only felt a huge force coming, only felt that his body was empty, his center of gravity couldn't help but fell backwards, and he fell face to the loess and back to the sky.

Tuo Bafeng got up and looked at Yang Tong in a daze, feeling an indescribable discomfort in his heart, which made him quite uncomfortable.

"How?" Yang Tong retracted the cracking spear, and said flatly, "The general understands."

Tuobafeng said in a sincerely convinced way: "The final general is convinced after losing. Is the Holy One the number one warrior in the Sui Dynasty?"

"I'm not, there are many generals stronger than me." Yang Tong shook his head and said to him with a smile, "Honestly speaking, your strength is not bad, but the strong Qiang people are too small, no matter how invincible you are." , It’s just that you are invincible in this small world. The reason is the same as adults beating children. You can’t make any progress when you compete with them. Only by going out and competing with more and stronger experts can you improve.”

"The general will be taught." Tuo Bafeng suddenly realized.

"Holy Majesty Shenwei, thank you Majesty for teaching me." Tuo Bahong was very happy seeing his son's arrogance completely subdued.

He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, these five thousand soldiers are the most elite warriors of our Qiang tribe. Each of them is a reputable and good man, and he will definitely not embarrass the Great Sui. Your Majesty, just give them combat missions at ease."

"Soldiers of the Qiang nationality are also soldiers of our Great Sui Dynasty. Naturally, I will treat everyone equally, and I will definitely not treat one more favorably than another. Qing Tuoba can rest assured." Yang Tong glanced at Tuobafeng and said, "I admire General Tuoba very much. It will surely become a great weapon. I decided to give him a national surname, from now on, Tuo Bafeng will be called Yang Feng."

"My son, I would like to thank the sage... the royal family has driven us from generation to generation." Tuoba Hong was overjoyed, and said excitedly, "Tuobafeng, uh, Yang Feng still hasn't thanked the sage?"

Ethnic problems were prominent in this era. Out of the need to open up the frontiers and appease the foreign states, surnames were often given to the dignitaries of the minorities attached to them, so that giving surnames became an important means of the ethnic policy of the Central Plains dynasty.Yang Tong bestowed Tuoba Feng with the national surname in order to win over the Qiang people and tie the Tuoba family firmly to the chariot of the Sui royal family.

For the subjects, surnames can also be divided into high and low, and the most distinguished surname is of course the emperor's surname, and bestowing the country's surname is the emperor's highest spiritual reward for his subjects.Those who get the surname will be attached to the royal family and become relatives of the clan. This is a great courtesy of the emperor to his ministers.

With this relationship, the Tuoba family's position in the Qiang people is unbreakable, so it is no wonder that Tuoba Hong is so excited.

"The last general Yang Feng kowtowed to the Holy Majesty." Yang Feng also knew why his father was so excited, he knelt down in front of Yang Tong.

"From today onwards, we are a family." Yang Tong helped Yang Feng up with a smile, and said to the envious Su Wu, "Lead the army into the camp and change the equipment."

"Here." Su Wu yelled, leading [-] Qiang soldiers into the camp.

Although Tuo Bahong and other Qiang heroes did not go out with the army, there are still many things to be busy in the future. First, they have to hold a clan meeting to make arrangements for going down the mountain, and then they have to plan Bailan City together with the court officials. Repair nearby fertile fields.So they didn't enter the camp, they just exchanged greetings for a while, then they all said goodbye and left.
