Chastity Layman

  Chapter 586 Eagle Yang

   "Lieutenant Changsun, many Tuyuhun rangers are found ahead."

   On the 28th, the cavalry of the left vanguard battalion of the Longyou North Route Army of the Tang Dynasty arrived near Mantou Mountain. The appearance of more and more Tuyuhun rangers made them sensitively aware of the situation.

  Sun Chong, the captain of the Qianfeng Camp, is the eldest son of Sun Wuji, the eldest son of the three princes who has just been crowned by the court, a real noble son, a relative of the emperor. His aunt is the Empress of the Tang Dynasty, and his father is Sangong. He was also selected by the emperor as the unmarried consort Duwei of the third princess, Princess Runan.

  Chang Sun Chong was born as a servant of the Three Guards, and Shi Brown prepared himself for Qianniu.

  This noble son has a very good family background, he is also handsome, he has both civil and military skills, and is excellent in all aspects. But even with such a noble status, Changsun Wuji is still paving the way for his son.

  After the Battle of Longyou last year, Changsun Wuji decisively wrote a letter to Qin Lang, and then transferred Changsun Chong to Longyou. Although Changsun Wuji has achieved the position of Sangong, he has always had a knot in his heart, that is, he worshiped Shangshu Youpushe before, but he only worked for a hundred days before he was dismissed.

   In the final analysis, it was because although he had always been Li Shimin's confidant and mastermind, he lacked military merit. His status as a foreign relative, on the contrary, restricted him. In order to avoid suspicion, Changsun Wuji could only hold back. But in my heart, there is still a knot in my heart.

  The emperor of the Tang Dynasty conquered the world immediately, so the Zhenguan Dynasty was also the one with the most military exploits.

Changsun Wuji himself has never led soldiers to fight, and has no military achievements, so he hopes that his son will have the opportunity to exercise in the army. If he can make solid military achievements, his future will be even more limitless. Otherwise, as a foreign relative, It will greatly affect the future of the son.

The northern Turks are gone, and Longyou has just won the battle, and it is the only place where there is still a chance to make military achievements. Qin Lang is also the in-law of the eldest grandson's family, and a firm political ally. He has also made great achievements in Longyou and entrusted his son It is reliable to give him nature.

  Changsun Wuji's letter to Qin Lang also made it clear that the son came here for real experience and not for gilding, and there were more than a dozen children of the Changsun family who came to Longyou with Changsun Chong.

Speaking of which, the Changsun family was one of the ten clans of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The family was once more prosperous and prosperous than the current Li Tang royal family. Although the Li family recognized the Xiliang Emperor of the Sixteen Kingdoms as their ancestor, not many people believed it. And it is recognized that more people think that the Li family is just a shabby household in Zhaojun, and it just happens to be Li. It's just that in the last years of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the chaos caused the Li family to join the army, and they took advantage of the situation to start their own business.

  On behalf of the Beiwuchuan army leaders, they entered the Guanzhong, separated a corner, supported the Wei Emperor who fled from Luoyang, and set up a separate court. Li Hu followed Yu Wentai, and finally even sat in the world.

  Li Hu also transformed from a head of the Northern Army to one of the eight pillar countries of the Western Wei Dynasty that shook the world.

With the successive establishment of the Western Wei, Northern Zhou, and Sui dynasties by the Guanlong Group, the Li family was also strong for a while, but it was the one who had been strong in the Northern Wei Dynasty for more than a hundred years, with seven people named kings, dozens of people named princes, and hundreds of ministers. The eldest grandson's family covered it.

If Changsun Wuji's father, Changsun Sheng, hadn't died early back then, and his half-brothers had robbed the family property and kicked them out of the house, even if the eldest grandson's family had not been as good as before, they might not have looked down on Tang Guogong Li Yuan's family in the Sui Dynasty, let alone He would not be willing to marry the eldest grandson to Li Yuan's second son.

  The eldest grandson family in the Northern Wei Dynasty was beautiful and powerful. Even in the Western Wei, Northern Zhou and Sui dynasties, there were still generations of talented people, and there were constant officials.

  However, Changsun Wuji has a long-term vision, and knows that even a century-old wealthy family, if the children do not have real meritorious abilities, the family will be difficult to sustain, and the ancestral shade alone cannot last long.

  Elder Sun Chong is the eldest son, but he can't be spoiled blindly, otherwise he won't be able to take on the great responsibility of family succession in the future.

  Qin Lang was not polite to the eldest Sun Chong from Luoyang, and asked him where he wanted to go? The eldest grandson was also stubborn, and bluntly said that he wanted to go to the front line, so Qin Lang directly pulled him under Xi Junmai's command, starting as a brigade commander.

This time, in the two battles with Fu Yun, Xi Jun bought the pioneers who made great contributions. Chang Sun Chong also performed extremely well. He shares the general style of his grandfather's eldest grandson Sheng.

  In particular, he not only writes Wang Xizhi's good calligraphy, but also has extraordinary archery skills.

   After two battles, this kid won several prizes, but he has made a lot of achievements. He has already saved eight thieves' heads in his account, and as the commander of the brigade, the Qingqi of his brigade also performed outstandingly.

  So after the division of troops in Kushan, Qin Lang directly promoted Chang Sun Chong to the post of Captain of the Pioneer Cavalry Regiment, and asked him to lead a regiment of two hundred light cavalry.

   Every time he takes the lead, he is not afraid of death, he is superb in riding and archery, and he can share the joys and sorrows with the cavalry under his command and fight together. Such a young officer also won the support of his subordinates.

The cavalry who can be selected as forwards are all veterans with rich experience, tough and good at fighting. These people only obey those with skills. There are ways to push people out.

  If you meet that kind of ignorant and domineering son of a relative, if you encounter a ruthless one, you can still make people die on the battlefield without knowing why.

   "Is there a fat sheep near here?" Changsun reined in.

  In just a short period of time, Chang Sun Chong has changed from a young man with a jade face to a bearded, dark-skinned, and rudely spoken frontier cavalry general.

   More and more Rangers appear here, which undoubtedly confirms that there are important people here.

"It seems that we have better luck." Zhang Sun Chong said with a smile, and the whole person became excited. This guy is desperate to fight, and the stronger the enemy is, the more excited he is. Now the brothers under him are all calling him directly. madman.

  Elder Sun Chong still likes this name very much. At this time, he still has half the appearance of that noble son in Kyoto.

   "Walking around like flies, brothers, how about we shoot some flies?"

   "The lieutenant said to fight, so let's fight." Several brigade commanders laughed and said, some of these people were from generals, and some were from powerful landlords who had been promoted step by step from the army. For them, forward sentinels are commonplace.

   "You can earn military merits again."

  Chang Sun Chong said with a smile, "Our 200 cavalry gathered together, and those Qiang cavalry obviously didn't dare to get close, they only dared to go around from a distance. I think it's better for us to disperse and use the team as a unit. How about we act separately?"

  Such a risky proposal, but none of the brigade commanders and team leaders objected.

   "Well, let's limit ourselves to half a day and go our separate ways. After half a day, regardless of the harvest, how about gathering here?" Changsun Chong asked.

  Everyone agrees.

   At this time, it is less than a hundred miles away from the Mantou Mountain camp of Yifu Abao. Ah Bao was determined to fight, so he was not a brainless person. He sent out a large number of rangers and went out a hundred miles to guard the Tang army, so as to keep track of the movements of the Tang army and avoid being caught off guard.

   Another messenger was sent to send orders to the various ministries, telling them not to obey Fu Yun's retreat order, but to gather at Mantou Mountain. At the same time, he also asked people to disperse the old, weak, women, children, and livestock to several hidden and dangerous valleys, and then led the young and strong elite to gather and garrison at Mantou Mountain, so that he could fight this battle without any worries.

  He even sent people around to intercept other tribes who passed by, and asked them to join his blocking army.

   Those sentry cavalry are all the elite light cavalry of the Yifu Department under Abao's command.

This is after he recruited a large number of Han Confucian scholars and literati, he followed their suggestions and set up a standing army. He selected young and strong children from the tribe, gathered them in his camp, trained them personally, and led them to ride, shoot and hunt. Like other tribes, they are herdsmen in leisure time and gather as soldiers in wartime.

   This is a guard army like the wolf guards attached to the Turkic Khan. The nature of the standing army allows this army to be trained more adequately and cooperate more tacitly. Even the equipment is completely provided by Abao, which is more unified and sophisticated.

  These young guards are a little arrogant because of this, and they always think highly of themselves.

  When they found this 200-man Tang Qi striker, they were already circling around, and they couldn't help but wanted to eat them.

   And when they found out that this Tang cavalry had unexpectedly started to split up into four teams, they couldn't hold back anymore.

   "These people seem to be dispersing and fleeing!" Someone concluded.

   "Can't let them get away!"

   "Catch them separately, stop them, kill them!"

   "The bright light armor on Tang Qi's body is really good, whoever grabs it will own it!"

   "That horse spear is better, much stronger than our spear."

   "Horizontal knife is also good."

   "Each according to their ability, whoever snatches it will own it!"

  These cavalry guards of Abao have already regarded the two hundred well-equipped Tang cavalry as their own meat.

   A roar.

  Yifu Ranger began to move closer to Tang Qi.

  Chang Sun Chong rode on the horse, skillfully manipulating the horses to gallop. He turned his head and saw these rangers biting their hooks, with a smug smile on his lips.

  He didn't turn his head back, but urged the horse to speed up. This move, in the eyes of those Yifu Rangers who only wanted to grab equipment, undoubtedly meant that Tang Qi was afraid and wanted to speed up and run away.

  With a long roar, the young Yifu knights began to speed up. They were still a little vigilant before, but now they were completely thrown out of the sky. They only have one thought now, to catch up and don't let them run away, they are Mingguangjia, Heiqiqiang, Zhemu Bow, Tang Hengdao.

  My mine is mine, so I can’t run away.

They chased after them excitedly, and some young rangers even showed off their horse skills while chasing, hiding in stirrups, standing on saddles, and some even jumped to the ground while pulling the saddle. , ran a few steps and got on the horse again.

   Seeing that they were getting closer and closer, just when they were proud, the smile on the corner of Changsun Chong's mouth became brighter and brighter. He leaned on the horse's back, skillfully drawing the arrow and pulling the string, and it was one string with two arrows.

  Turn your head.

  Looking back at the moon, on the back of the galloping horse, Changsun made impulsive movements skillfully in one go. At this time, there were at least fifty or sixty steps behind him, and with the sound of strings, two riders fell off the horse.

  The Yifu knight next to him was still a little surprised. Could it be that he missed the show?

But before he came back to his senses, there was another chord, this time it was the knight who felt the pain of his head exploding, and the next moment he felt himself flying. When he was dying, he still looked at The companion next to him also fell off the horse.

  At the last moment of his life, he suddenly realized that it wasn't because of his missing skills, but that Tang Qi in front of him was so skilled in archery that he shot and killed four people in a row.
