Chastity Layman

  Chapter 999 The fierce prince

   "Qin Lang once told me that the most important thing in war is to keep the enemy from guessing your intentions."

   Cheng Qian galloped his horse into the valley like a tiger into a flock of sheep.

  At this moment, Chengqian felt extremely free, like his favorite Haidongqing flying to the sky. I will be a great prince, and I will definitely be a great emperor in the future. He looks down on his fat brother Li Tai. , Literally.

  He also disdained Wu Wang Li Tai's hypocrisy and false invitations.

He has to be himself, to be a mighty emperor. The Tang Dynasty has become strong today, not because of books, paper and pens, not because of benevolence and righteousness, but because of Emperor Gaozu Taiwu and today's emperor. It is two generations. The emperor's martial arts development.

Even to a farther point, the Li family can become the first family in the world, become the royal family in the world, not relying on the scriptures, poetry, calligraphy and painting. No matter how their Li family traced their ancestors back to Lao Tzu, the main reason for the Li family to really have today is Li Hu, who became one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms of the Western Wei Dynasty.

  The great ancestor of Chengqian, was born in the town of Wuchuan in the Northern Wei Dynasty. It is because of him that the Li family has the prosperity of this Xingdai.

   Going forward, Li Hu is the fifth grandson of Li Hao, the founding monarch of Xiliang during the Sixteen Kingdoms period. Li Hao gave birth to Li Xin, and Li Xin gave birth to Li Chonger. After Li Chong'er died in Xiliang, he became an official in the Northern Wei Dynasty and became the prefect of Hongnong. Li Chonger gave birth to Li Xi, an official in Kinmen Township. He once led heroes to guard Heicheng, guard Pingcheng, the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and resist the invasion of Rouran, so he later settled down in Wuchuan.

  Li Xi gave birth to Li Tianci, from the official to the head of the guards, and Li Tianci gave birth to Li Hu.

  Li Hu has great ambitions in playing small and suave. He is especially good at archery.

  The Li family owes its existence to its great-grandfather Li Hu, so what Chengqian admires the most is this great-grandfather who came from the generals around him.

  The strong wind and blizzard slapped Cheng Qian's face.

  It was bitingly cold, but it couldn't quench the passion in his heart.

  The horses are galloping, and the sky is full of snow powder.

In the valley in the early morning, the Tuyuhun people were still huddled in the tents to avoid the cold and sleep. They had stayed in this valley for several months. It was windy and snowy outside, and they were sweating profusely. They were strictly forbidden to go out, so they went to bed early and late every day. Get up, do nothing.

  The news I have been hearing before is that Tang Jun has replaced such an incompetent general Hou Junji this time, and has come again such an absurd crown prince Chengqian. They laughed and didn't take Tang Jun seriously anymore.

They also fully believed the words of Da Khan, and everyone continued to avoid the winter here. When the Tang army arrived, hungry and cold, and forced to lead the army, they would fight out halfway, killing them all, and then killing them all the way through Shanzhou, Kuo, etc. Hezhou, Hezhou, even hit Lanzhou and occupied Liangzhou.

  Be patient, everyone can grab countless cattle and sheep, and get countless Han slaves.

   Chengqian kicked the spur fiercely, urging the horse to jump up.

   In front of him and behind him are hundreds of Luben knights.

  These knights are Xi Junmai, Liang Jianfang, Gao Kan, etc., who have drawn out the elite from the Central Plains of the Longyou Army who had been in the East Palace in the East Palace, and re-established the Luben Camp for the prince.

  There is only one task for them, to protect the prince comprehensively.

Chengqian hated these tough fighters, although they were the most elite, they followed Liang Jianfang and others to fight in Jiannan and Longyou, and made many military exploits. Among the hundreds of knights, the lowest one is the team leader.

  But now they have gathered again to form the prince's Luben camp with 300 people, but they don't care about their positions and ranks, they only take pride in protecting the prince.

  But Chengqian would rather not have these people, they are firmly around him, which makes it difficult for him to continue to challenge the enemy.

  But Chengqian is not someone who is so easily restrained.

  He urged his mount, galloped hard in the rolling iron stream, and rushed straight to the center.

  The Tuyuhun people rushed out of the tent in a panic, before they even had time to put on the heavy leather robes, the cavalry rushed past.

   Xi Junmai took the lead in charging.

  He had already issued an order before the charge, not to fight, not to get entangled, just charge to the bottom, turn the horse's head after charging to the bottom, regroup, and charge back.

   Repeatedly, continuously, crushing the Tuyuhun people, without giving them any chance to rally and fight back, until they completely collapsed, this is the battle plan of this vanguard officer.

   Without any bells and whistles, bold and domineering, with five thousand to one hundred thousand, to smash them.

  Chengqian likes this plan very much, it fits the fierce general style in his heart.

  The wind blew up, and the snow powder all over the sky splashed on his face, Cheng Qian gritted his teeth, the veins in the hand holding the lance were exposed, and the knuckles turned white.

  The Tuyuhun man had just come out of the tent, before he even had time to bring his horse, and he couldn't even put on a piece of broken armor, so he stood in front of the tent stupidly with a broken shield, a knife and an axe.

  Chengqian stared closely at a Tuyuhun man who seemed to be stunned by the countless Tang Qi rushing out of the wind and snow. That bald head made his eyes red.

"boom!"

A Luben knight galloped past his target, and with a dash of the lance, knocked away the shield in the barbarian's hand, another Luben knight rode his horse to keep up, raised the lance in his hand and Come hit.

The Tuyuhun man could no longer dodge, and was pierced through his unarmored body by the sharp scythe blade. The huge impact of the horse drove him back continuously. impact.

   Cheng Qian was about to get close to the target, but he was still far away. His prey had been beheaded by two Lu Ben knights.

  He cursed secretly, and hurriedly looked for the next target.

  The wind is roaring, and the horse is braying.

  The Tuyuhun people screamed in panic and fled in all directions.

   Chengqian grinned.

Unexpectedly, what a simple word, but how difficult it is to achieve this step. The art of war that Qin Lang taught him is not fake at all, it is full of dry goods, classic battle examples one by one, detailed Analysis and conclusion, after studying with Qin Lang for so many years, it was really not in vain.

  He also learned the art of war from Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong, Li Xiaogong and other generals, and even learned from his father.

  But Cheng Qian couldn't quite understand what they said.

And the art of war taught by Qin Lang is always so vivid that he can understand it as soon as he hears it, especially Qin Lang will replay it with him, engage in sand table drills, and even later they each lead a brigade to deduce the recovery battle examples in actual combat, This made him deeply understand and gain a lot.

  War is a means not an end. War pays attention to strategy, and strategy is realized by tactics one by one.

  Tactics is to focus on your strategic purpose, find a way to use your troops, equipment, money, food, etc., through various deceptions, temptations and other means, and finally defeat the enemy's strategy.

  Qin Lang summed it up to him bluntly, you have to let the enemy fight according to your arrangement, and you can't be led by the enemy to fight.

   This battle should be able to prove that I should graduate from the Art of War class, right?

   Chengqian thought proudly.

   Blood, death.

   These did not make Cheng Qian afraid, but made him more excited. At this moment, the emperor should be sitting in Ziwei Palace in Luoyang, scolding himself for messing around, right?

  Wei Wang Li Tai is in Luoyang, where his emperor granted him the Wei Wangfu to occupy the land of Erfang, laughing frivolously and complacently at himself for committing suicide, is he taking pleasure in misfortune?

  As for Wu Wang Li Tai, the brother who always likes to put on airs and hypocrisy, he is probably looking forward to being captured by Tuyuhun in Shicheng, Wei County, Nanning Prefecture, Yunnan.

  These brothers, why can’t they understand that they are no longer children, and they have to fight for and guard what they want with all their strength, instead of relying on others?

  He will not make the mistakes his uncle made back then. When he became a prince, he also made great achievements in the founding of the Tang Dynasty. There was no big mistake, but why not only did he not keep the position of crown prince, but also lost his life in the end?

   One is that they are too weak and indecisive, and the other is that they cannot hold a reliable force.

  When he was eight years old, he witnessed this terrible tragedy of brotherhood, so he would never make the same mistake as his uncle again.

   Both Li Tai and Li Ke wanted to be the second king of Qin, but he promised to never be the second king.

Although at this moment, his shoulders and neck were in pain from the weight of the armor and weapons on his body, what was even more uncomfortable was that the long-distance gallop on horseback, coupled with the extremely cold wind and snow, made half of his body numb and stiff, but his heart was burning, He will not be afraid, let alone retreat.

"kill!"

   Chengqian let out a loud roar, cheering up his spirits again.

  A large group of Tuyuhun people appeared in front of them, and some of them even got on their horses. The Luben guards were finally unable to kill them all.

   Cheng Qian had a smile on his face.

   Clenched the horse again.

   "Those who stand in my way, die!"

  Three hundred knights in the Luben camp protected the prince like a sharp horse, slamming into the group of Tuyuhun people blocking the way.

  Chengqian clamped his horse tightly, just like he had trained thousands of times, staring at the prey with eagle eyes.

The mount that got off was a green horse that was put on outside the valley. It is said that it once grew up on the Dragon Island of Qinghai Lake. It is also called Qinghai Longju. The horses catch up with the island, and after Qinghai Lake freezes, there will be wild horses mating on the island, and a batch of dragon foals will be born in the coming year, and the best foals will be selected and bred to become the best Qinghai dragon. Foals, each worth thousands of gold.

  These horses are most adapted to the climate here, and under such severe cold and heavy snow, they are still flying freely.

  The horse cooperated tacitly, he roared, the horse jumped up, and suddenly accelerated, the target Tuyuhun man raised his shield in panic, but just as the shield was half lifted, Cheng Qian had already descended from the sky on the dragon colt.

   One spear penetrates and kills.

  The dragon colt landed on the ground, jumped up again, and directly hit a Tuyuhun who was standing in front of him and flew up.

   Chengqian roared again and again, "Kill, kill, kill!"

   A few arrows came, but I couldn't avoid it.

   But there were only some jingling sounds, two or three arrows were directly blocked by the armor and fell to the ground, and two arrows were stuck on the armor askew.

Ke Chengqian is lined with fine cowhide armor, and then covered with iron chain armor, and then covered with a layer of Mingguangshan Wenzha armor, the outermost layer is also covered with a layer of copper nail foam armor sent by Qin Lang, and the outer layer is covered A layer of silk woven cloak, the arrows of the Tuyuhun people did not hurt a bit.

  Carrying two crooked feather arrows on his body, Cheng Qian urged the horse to continue to charge forward, shooting out like a dragon, invincible!
