Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 87 Family
However, because Tang established its capital in Chang'an, its expansion to the east has actually reached its limit. It itself does not have much desire for the Korean peninsula. , Shandong prefectures and counties pose a threat.

Therefore, Silla didn't really care much about the encroachment and encroachment of Datang by Baekje Prefecture. After all, it was just a buffer zone outside the Jimi Prefecture and the mainland.But if Silla was perfunctory about the grand strategy of destroying Goguryeo, or even had a secret dissent, then the people of Tang would rather lure wolves into the house than destroy the rebellious Silla first.

This is also the reason why Jin Renwen said before that he will do his best to serve Datang, and Silla will be healthy and healthy, because the more loyal he is to Datang, the more the Emperor of Datang will trust him, and he will be able to defend Silla at critical times , otherwise it would have been a disaster last time.

"I understand what the second brother means!" Jin Famin nodded: "Please rest assured, I will transport the grain to Pyongyang no matter what!"

"That's good!" Seeing that Jin Famin was finally relieved, Jin Renwen also breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother, where is the coffin of the father, please let me worship!"

This small stone castle is almost completely deserted, just like the cemetery not far from the stone castle, with luxuriant grass and thorns everywhere. In the face of time, even solid stones cannot compete with it.

Yuan Fei wore a single coat and used a claw hoe to dig out the silt in the spring. The spring was not big, but it was enough to irrigate the fertile valley below the stone castle.

In return for his service, Wang Wenzuo bestowed this small stone castle and this small valley to Yuan Fei and his family. When he got the title deed, this strong man burst into tears and stained his cheeks.

Finally, the spring water gushed out, overflowed the stone pool, and then flowed down the mountain along the channel that had been cleaned up.Yuan Fei put down his hoe, wiped the sweat off his forehead, took a sip of the spring water, and the mountain wind blew on his face, carrying the warm and moist breath unique to spring.

The tribesmen in the valley are busy. They are digging the burned land and sowing seeds. Some people are cutting wood on the back hillside and preparing to build houses. Although the stone castle is strong and difficult to attack, if it is comfortable and convenient, the wooden house at the bottom is more comfortable. ah!

In the evening, Yuan Fei was sitting by the bonfire, while his mother was scooping porridge for his two younger brothers and more than 30 clan members. Although the day's work was extremely heavy, no one complained.

According to old habits, the mother was the last one to scoop up porridge for Yuan Fei, but what was different from the past was that even the naughtiest younger brother did not make a sound, but resisted the temptation of food and waited silently for his elder brother Picking up the chopsticks, everyone knows that Yuan Fei is already a real big man at this time: he has made contributions to the general's battle, been given land and fortresses, and in the past, when such a master passed by, they would just Can kneel by the roadside, bury his head deeply in the dust, not daring to look up.

There was only bean porridge for dinner, but everyone ate very sweetly. When the men finished eating, they were going to rest in the grass shed.Yuan Fei stopped his two younger brothers: "Wait a while!"

The teenagers stopped and looked at their elder brother with curious eyes.Yuan Fei walked to the wood pile, found three straight branches about the thickness of a forearm and three meters long, cut off the branches and leaves with a dagger, walked in front of his brothers, and stuffed them into their hands: "There is a moon tonight. Teach you how to use spears! From now on, you two will be my party!"

The teenagers exchanged glances and nodded excitedly.Yuan Fei began to demonstrate to his younger brothers how to pierce with the tip, how to block with the pole, and how to dodge the enemy's attack. Finally, he began to tell his younger brothers how to stab the enemy with that part of the body.

"The stomach and throat are the best targets. Don't stab at the chest. There are many bones there. Your spear point is likely to get stuck in the bone and you won't be able to pull it out. This can be fatal on the battlefield. The stomach is soft, although the stabbing You won't die immediately if you get hit, but how long no one can move with their intestines flowing out. If there is any fool with his back facing you, then you have to aim at the gap between the shoulder blades and the two ribs, especially the two ribs, and be stabbed in Anyone who is here will die immediately!"

Listening to the elder brother's explanation, the two teenagers were a little excited and a little scared, while the rest of the clan looked on enviously.

But it soon became a heavy practice. Yuan Fei applied the same set of Tang Army infantry drills he saw in the army to his two younger brothers, "stab, turn the gun, pull it out, yes! stab, turn , pull, use force, faster, faster, yes, on the battlefield, the quickest will live, and the slowest will die, yes, quicker, faster!"

Yuan Fei's scolding continued until the moon crossed the ridge. When the two teenagers were lying on the haystack, they couldn't lift their arms at all. When their mother pleaded with distress, Yuan Fei shook his head firmly: "Since they He is my brother, so he has to learn how to archery and hold a spear! Joining the army gave me land and a stone castle, how can I be the only one to serve him!"

Just as the land temporarily calmed down, the chariots of the Tang Empire across the sea started rumbling.In April, Emperor Gaozong dispatched Qibi Heli, Su Dingfang, Liu Boying, Cheng Mingzhen, etc. to be the commanders-in-chief of several marches in Weijiang, Liaodong, Pyongyang, and Loufang.

The emperor himself even wanted to lead the army as his successor, but he gave up because the empress tried his best to dissuade him.

Sibi City, Xiongjin Riverside, dock.

The brand-new longboat exudes the smell of asphalt and resin. Although it has not been completely completed, lying in the dock on the shore, people can already fully feel her dexterity and agility. The 25-meter-long black streamlined hull, The towering main mast, fifty long oars, a deck enough for 100 people to stand, and the bow is the bow mast pointing upwards.

"This boat is really beautiful, although it is not the same as the boats I have seen in the past!" Liu Yuanzhen looked at the hull that was about to be completed in the dock with some surprise, and asked Wang Wenzuo: "Where did you learn it?" ?”

"It was built in imitation of the Hu merchant's boat in Guangzhou!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "It is more convenient to advance and retreat, and it can also sail against the wind!"

"Oh? There are other things like this?" Liu Yuanzhen looked at the boat with great interest, and then withdrew her gaze: "Wang Canjun, you are all preparing for the relics, right? People like you who work hard these days have already Not much more, don't worry, when I return to Chang'an, I will recommend you in front of the queen!"

Wang Wenzuo was taken aback for a moment, and soon realized that the other party thought he was building the ship to win the relic, so he naturally couldn't explain it, so he hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you Liu Lingjian, this is just what the subordinates should do!"

"Hehe!" Liu Yuanzhen smiled: "But your efforts should be in vain, do you know? There have been letters from Chang'an a few days ago!"
