Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 1060 The Underestimated Princess Pingyang
Chapter [-]: The Underestimated Princess Pingyang

The sound of horseshoes was like thunder, and the ice particles on the Yunguan city wall trembled on the ice surface, and the icicles formed on the city wall fell down with the shock waves.

The horns were continuous, the smoke and dust soared into the sky, and tens of thousands of cavalry came roaring.

The soldiers of the Tang Army who closed the Izumo Gate all stared at each other in astonishment, their faces turning pale.Even Xue Rengui expected that the enemy army had ambushes nearby, but he never dreamed that in order to deal with them, the enemy army would gather tens of thousands of people!

In the place of Anxi, tens of thousands of horses is already a rather scary number. Gaochang Kingdom, which once dominated Anxi for 150 years, has only a little over [-] cavalry in Gaochang!Now a small Izumo pass is attacked by tens of thousands of cavalry, Xue Rengui really doesn't know whether to cry or laugh!
The soldiers of the Tang army standing on the city wall desperately rained arrows on the enemy below the city. Xue Rengui shot three arrows down three times in a row. Looking at the boundless enemy cavalry, a trace of worry flashed in his heart.

There are too many enemies!

According to this way of fighting, even if the 300 of them are not killed, they will be exhausted to death!

Xue Rengui gritted his teeth, raised the iron tire bow in his hand, and looked into the distance.Finally, he found an enemy general who was commanding his subordinates to attack the city 350 steps away.

Xue Rengui put away the iron tire bow without any hesitation.At a distance of [-] steps, although the iron tire bow can barely fly, but at this distance, the speed and penetration of the arrow are already too weak.

Xue Rengui naturally knows that there is only one chance to snipe from a distance.

Xue Rengui took advantage of his superior eyesight, as well as his sense of archery.He came to a scorpion crossbow in front of Guancheng. The scorpion crossbow has a range not weaker than that of the eight-ox crossbow, but it is too heavy and its fixed power is weaker than the eight-ox crossbow. The presence.

The Scorpion Crossbow can only shoot single shots, and it can snipe and kill targets within a range of [-] or [-] steps. The key is that within this distance, a human head is equivalent to a fly, and it is still a moving fly. Such a goal is very difficult.

Although the Scorpion Crossbow is a weapon invented under the guidance of Chen Ying, Shule College and Datang University of Technology have also given great attention to it, and replaced it with spring steel with stronger elasticity, added a pulley winding, and a base that can rotate 360 ​​degrees And the shooting height can be adjusted up and down by [-] degrees.

If you don't consider the rate of fire and power, this is simply a high-level dual-purpose machine gun for later generations.

Xue Rengui aimed at the enemy general with a scorpion crossbow, and just as he was about to launch, he suddenly found a big tao [-] paces away, with an ornament woven with oxtail and a ferocious wolf's head embroidered in the middle.

It turned out to be Shanyu Datao of the Western Turks.

Xue Rengui immediately gave up the commanding general and aimed at Da Tao.

"Boom..."

The whole body of the crossbow shook violently, and a sharp piercing sound pierced the sky above the battlefield, but it was covered by the noise on the battlefield, and finally pierced through the flagpole of the Western Turkic Spike Datao with a pop, and the flagpole fell in response. .

The huge tao was blown in the direction of Izumo Pass by the wind. At this time, the Datao, like a kite, actually crossed more than [-] steps and fell into the Izumo Pass.

The battle stopped unconsciously, and the cavalry who participated in the attack looked blankly at the bare flagpole behind.

Shaboluo became suspicious of Li Shi Khan. He thought it was the Tang army's arrows that hit Da Tao.

In such an ultra-long-range position, although the range of the eight-ox crossbow can be easily achieved, it is difficult to aim the eight-ox crossbow.

"call out!"

At this moment, the second crossbow arrow pierced through the forehead of Shabola Lisha Khan's steed. The sharp crossbow arrow penetrated the horse's head, and then ruthlessly penetrated into Shabola Lisha Khan's chest. In his stomach, a sharp arrowhead cut off his intestines, causing his vitality to drain quickly.

As one of the four Western Turkic Khans, Shabola Helishi Khan died in front of Izumo Pass in this way.

The battle before the Izumo Pass stopped as Sabolo defeated Khan and fell off his horse.

The leaderless Western Turkic army is in chaos, and Xue Rengui will not give up this opportunity.He led the only one hundred and two cavalry in the city of Izumo Pass, and brazenly launched a Jedi counterattack against tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry.

In this almost disproportionate battle, everyone thought that Xue Rengui would be defeated. However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Xue Rengui was like a god, and more than a hundred cavalry chased and killed this defeated army for dozens of miles. No less than 3000 Turks died under his horse.

Xue Rengui also became famous in the Anxi Army and became the famous arrow god in the Anxi Army.

As the general manager of Shule, Zhang Huaiwei promoted Xue Rengui in an extraordinary way, and promoted him from Qipin Yihui captain to sixth rank directly to Zhaowu captain.

If this award came before Chen Ying, Chen Ying would definitely promote Xue Rengui to General Zhongwu or General Zhuangwu without any hesitation, which is just a pity.

Xue Rengui's fate was not good. The entire Anxi Army generals knew the news of Chen Ying's assassination.

……

In Chang'an Tai Chi Palace, Li Jiancheng instantly aged a lot in just a few days, and his head was covered with white hair.He looked at Li Anyan and said, "How is General Chen's injury?"

Li Anyan said with a dejected look: "There is poison on the crossbow arrow, and the injury is very serious. I'm afraid it's more ominous than ominous!"

Li Jiancheng said: "You choose some capable subordinates to escort the best imperial physicians in the palace, and at the same time transfer the best talents from the Yuan Sui Imperial Army. If you need any medicine or famous doctor, you will do your best to help find it. Heal him! Nothing will happen to him!"

Li Anyan said: "Follow the order!"

Li Jiancheng said again: "Protect his family! He has offended too many people. If anything happens, those bastards will not let his family go!"

Li Anyan said: "Follow the order!"

He didn't dare to neglect, and hurried down to make arrangements.

At this moment, Li Jiancheng suddenly said: "Forget it, your manpower is already tight, and the Chen family castle is hanging alone outside Chang'an City. There are fewer people and it is difficult to protect it. If there are too many... Chang'an City may be taken advantage of by them again. Get in!"

Li Anyan smiled wryly: "Your Majesty's words are absolutely true!"

"so……"

Thinking of this, an idea flashed in Li Jiancheng's head, and he suddenly had an idea.

"Where is Zhongshu Sheren?"

Cen Wen said: "The minister is here!"

Li Jiancheng muttered: "The decree..."

Li Jiancheng was no longer in the mood to review the memorial. He sat there in a daze for a long time, repeating a sentence in a low voice: "Chen Ying, that's all I can do for you. You must get better!"

……

On the lobby of Chenjiabao in Qinglinli, there is an incense table enshrined.In front of the incense table, Li Xiuning was dressed in uniform, and Li Daozhen was standing with a Mo Dao in his hand.

A young eunuch said in a cadenced tone: "...I only use literature to rule the world and fight chaos with martial arts. Princess Pingyang has outstanding literary talents, and her virtuous voice is heard all over the world; she is virtuous in ordering chaos, and her martial arts are outstanding in the temple. She is the general of the Zhu Kingdom. Kaifuyi and the three divisions can participate in the big government together."

Li Xiuning accepted the imperial decree with an expression on her face, and said, "I——thank you for your kindness!"

Li Xiuning picked up the imperial decree and walked out the door without even returning to the mansion.

Ma Sanbao was taken aback, pulled the boat closer and asked, "Princess, where are you going?"

Li Xiuning said: "I've stayed here for too long, I'm so bored, I want to visit Chang'an."

Ma Sanbao said in amazement: "Princess, don't go! Now Guanzhong has become a boiling crater, and the chaos is unbearable. I don't know how many people are lurking in the dark, trying to kill you. You must not go!"

Li Xiuning's voice was not high, but she said resolutely: "It's because of the chaos there that I'm going... Originally, I was already at ease as a good wife and mother, and didn't care about world affairs, but they forced me to set up the flag of the Women's Army, The great general will raise his account, and all the women's army will return to the establishment, ask Wanqian Erlang, whether the swords in their hands are sharp, and whether they can follow the palace to kill the enemy!"

The eldest grandson Wugou said worriedly: "Sanniang, calm down, Chen Lang..."

"He will be fine. I have experienced more terrible crises with him than this one. He has survived tenaciously, and this time will be no exception. He has always gritted his teeth outside, and now I want to Help him do something to stabilize Guanzhong." Li Xiuning said lightly.

Ma Sanbao didn't persuade him anymore, neither did Changsun Wugou.

Li Xiuning was right.

If those people want to make trouble, Guanzhong will be the first to cause trouble.

Now there is vague news that the Xue Yantuo people are marching southward from the Yudu Army Mountain, and the Western Turkic Army has also appeared in Anxi. According to rumors, Jieli Khan has arrived in Mobei to organize the old army and prepare to fight against the Tang Dynasty.

Similarly, Songtsan Gampo also returned to Tibet, and a new fission was brewing in the seemingly peaceful snowy plain of Tibet.

The barbarians in Jiannan Road are also ready to move, and the aboriginal barbarians in Lingnan are also staring at it. This is not important. As long as there is no chaos in the Guanzhong of the Tang Dynasty, sporadic rebellions in various places will never cause the Tang Dynasty to collapse.

Li Xiuning led hundreds of guards from Chenjiabao, and marched slowly towards Chang'an City under the command of Princess Pingyang. At the same time, more and more old women's soldiers arrived after hearing the news.

When they arrived in Chang'an City, more than [-] people had gathered around Li Xiuning.

With the return of the Detachment of Women, there has just been a little disturbance in the Guanzhong area, and Li Xiuning's Detachment of Women has already appeared, so fast, it makes people shudder, and it also calms the hearts of the people.

Although Chen Ying's life and death were uncertain, Li Xiuning stood up. The Anxi army, the combat effectiveness of this army has not been affected. With them around, the world will not be in chaos!

Calmness is just an expression phenomenon, and the undercurrent has already stirred up.Since they dared to assassinate, they definitely would not do nothing to Li Xiuning.You must know that Li Xiuning is the most critical person who maintains Chen Ying and Li Jiancheng.

If there was no Li Xiuning, with Chen Yingxiong's strength to dominate Anxi, the imperial court would have cut down the domain long ago.

Li Xiuning is the princess who is best at leading troops and fighting in the Li Tang royal family. She is also the only princess who enjoys the title of prince and has a real official position.

No one would ignore the existence of Li Xiuning. Li Xiuning led the Detachment of Women to patrol Sansuke. Almost everywhere she went, there were assassins lurking in the dark. Whenever she got a chance, they would kill the killers, and they would do everything they could. Poison, arson, sniping, backstabbing...

There are only tricks they haven't thought of, no tricks they haven't tried, it's all crazy.

However, none of these assassination plots succeeded. Li Xiuning had a group of highly vigilant experts around him, and the heroes in Guanzhong were also impatient.

Li Xiuning is the general backstage of the heroes in Guanzhong and even the whole world. Without Li Xiuning's care, they would have been cleaned up by the civil officials.

Unless the ass is not clean and a fart is bad, the government will not make a one-size-fits-all for once and for all.

The heroes of Guanzhong are also desperate. Once Li Xiuning has a problem, it will be a real disaster for them. They may be called the disciples of the aristocratic family, or the vicious dog raised by the big family. They will definitely not be the same as they are now be free and easy.The heroes all know that this is their last chance, if something happens to Li Xiuning, this great aunt, no one will feel better about it.

The energy of the heroes is enormous. They mobilized all their hands to be on high alert, staring at every suspicious face. Many assassins were caught by them before they could act. The straw mat was buried in the wilderness like a wild dog .

This was a thrilling secret battle. From Qinglinli to Chencang, from Chencang to Fufeng, Li Xiuning was assassinated a total of [-] times, killing [-] people.

More than 200 heroes sacrificed to protect her.

Of course, these things are impossible to be known to the outside world.

The Detachment of Women, which had been disbanded for more than ten years, followed Li Xiuning to inspect Guanzhong while undergoing training. The Detachment of Women's Army, which has been equipped with new equipment, has more than 1 people. They have become the most popular among the people in Guanzhong. Beloved soldiers.

……

In the north of Chang'an City, in a luxurious mansion.

The middle-aged man in the white robe had a gloomy look on his face, and he slapped the information heavily on the table: "We really underestimated these women!"

"Dugong, I have already said that Princess Pingyang is not an ordinary person, no one should underestimate her!"

The middle-aged man known as Duke Du looked at the man in front of him with contempt and said: "She is a woman, after all, she is a woman, so I just didn't regard her as an opponent, but now I face her squarely, her end is coming! "

Mr. Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Du Gong, it's best to stop now!"

Du Gong looked at Mr. Feng with eagle-like eyes and said, "Is there anything in this world that money can't do? Tell me, no matter who it is, just bring the head of Pingyang, and I will pay you [-] guan!"

One hundred thousand, in this era, is still a huge sum that can make people crazy.

However, what is very surprising is that such a huge amount of bonus rewards did not cause a shock in Chang'an, or even in the whole Guanzhong. Instead, it was as if nothing had happened.

Unexpectedly, around this originally inconspicuous mansion, dense numbers of strange faces appeared.

When Duke Du received the news, he realized something was wrong.

Fortunately, he had too many masters around him, and he caught a tongue without any effort.

"What's the name!" Duke Du looked at the man in front of him with a sneer.

The man in front of him was none other than Yu Zhengyang, known as the "Hero of Guanzhong".

Yu Zhengyang was spitting blood from his mouth, and laughed maniacally: "What a big-tailed wolf, your grandpa Yu is here!"

"It seems that you really haven't figured out the situation!" Duke Du waved his hand.

A guard stepped forward and pointed towards Yu Zhengyang.

Yu Zhengyang screamed pitifully: "Give me a happy..."

As the bones on Yu Zhengyang's body were broken bit by bit, Duke Du still didn't get the answer he wanted from Yu Zhengyang.

At this time, another hero was invited to the mansion.

This is a very obese fat man, weighing more than 250 kilograms, his eyes are almost narrowed.

Duke Du thought that he would not get the information he expected, especially this feeling of being blind or deaf, which drove him a little crazy.

"Don't waste my time"

The fat man smiled cheaply and said, "Being loved by friends in the rivers and lakes, and raining in time in the pass under the bandit number, what do you want to know, Mr. Du?"

Du Gong said: "One hundred thousand guan bonus, why is no one tempted?"

"Money is good, but human life is the money!" Fatty looked at Du Gong and smiled, "I thought you were a smart person, but it's a pity, you turned out to be an idiot!"

Du Gong's face was livid: "Who is the idiot?"

"Is there anyone else?" The fat man ate the mutton in front of him as if nothing had happened, while wiping the grease from his mouth with his sleeve: "If you are a smart person, when you find something is wrong, you should run away as soon as possible. How far is it?" How far to run, instead of waiting to die!"

Duke Du's expression changed drastically: "Come here!"

Unfortunately, the guard outside the house did not show up for a long time.

Du Gong hurriedly touched the incense burner on the case table, it was the switch of the mechanism, through the mechanism, he could hide in the secret room in time and escape from Chang'an City.

However, the moment Du Gong touched the incense burner, a knife appeared in front of the incense burner out of thin air.

Then the air seemed to twist, and a person who seemed to appear out of thin air appeared in the hall.

Du Gong's face changed drastically: "Five Elements Escape Technique, who are you?"

"My name is Yu Youyu, and my father is Yu Yanzhang, the former general of the left prison gate guard!" Yu Youyu looked at Du Gong and said with a smile, "Will you come with me?"

Duke Du's face changed suddenly, he looked around from the corner of his eyes, and found that the guards around him were lying on the ground.No scars on the outside.

Fatty Liang Zan said: "Don't look any further, this is a newly invented anesthetic from our Boren Hospital, even if their arms are cut off, they won't feel any more!"

Yu Youyu stepped forward and punched Du Gong in the stomach so hard that he blew out his last night's meal.

Yu Youyu looked at Liang Zan and smiled, "Charge some interest first!"

Liang Zan said: "It's up to you, as long as you live anyway!"
