Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Zhangjia Village in Kaifeng Prefecture, even in the season of warm wind and flowers, has a gray and black rustic atmosphere. The earth walls and roads are covered with dust, and the whole village is covered with blackened dirt. Children are picking up donkey manure on the road with baskets.

Under the crooked locust tree at the entrance of the village, a young man was riding on the back of a brown horse. The leather and linen military uniform on his body was neatly tidied up. The leather shoulder armor and tightened belt made him look very energetic, and the sword on his waist was obviously different from that of the villagers.

After a while, two men wearing the same clothes walked quickly from the dirt road, clasped their fists together and said, "Meet Shi General Yu."

The young man said: "Commander Zhang will pass by here, you and I will meet him as a gesture of friendship as the landlord."

"Yes." The two replied.

Yu Liang then shook the reins of the horse, turned the horse's head, and the three of them walked along the dirt road.

"Is it going to war again?" Yu Liang heard the question from the third child of the Zhang family, sat on his horse and looked back, clearly seeing his excited and expectant expression. The soldiers were delighted when they heard the battle, and Yu Liang saw it with his own eyes.

Da Lang of the Zhang family said: "Warning is not about being stubborn. The third child has just married a wife."

"I must go this time!" Saburo said anxiously.

Yu Liang couldn't help but said: "Your elder brother is right, you just became a groom, and the spring night is short, why are you so focused on going to war?"

He was not only asking Zhang Jiasanlang, but he also wanted to understand why he stayed in the army and refused to leave. But Saburo scratched his head, faltering and hawing, unable to explain why.

"It's hard for people who get involved in gambling to turn back." Yu Liang mused.

The two Zhang family brothers looked at each other in blank dismay, not quite understanding Yu Liang's nonsensical words.

Yu Liang lowered his head and looked down at them: "On the gambling table, one month's or one year's income comes and goes casually, and one's heart becomes impetuous when one gets on top, who can calm down and accumulate wealth slowly?

Our guards are fighting wars, and the settling expenses before the expedition are enough for you to farm for a few years. I don’t think you can farm with peace of mind even if you take off your armor. "

The two brothers of the Zhang family didn't say a word.

Yu Liang said again: "Wars are indeed a luxury that consumes money. The armor we wear, the weapons we use, and the food we use are not things that ordinary people can squander at will."

Sanlang muttered: "The village is also boring. I work hard all day, but I can't get much harvest. I go out to fight all over the world, eat the emperor's rations, and do great things for the emperor!"

The three of them went up the post road one after the other, and when it was noon, they saw a group of cavalry running on the post road, the road was filled with dust, who is the current sturdy man, not the commander Zhang Jiankui?

Yu Liang jumped down from his horse, held his fists and held a military salute from a distance, and said loudly: "General Zhang has come to the last general's village, if you don't mind, may I have a drink and rest in the humble house?"

"Hahaha!" Zhang Jiankui laughed loudly, and said loudly, "It's a pleasure to meet you, then I will not welcome you!"

Zhang Jiankui rode his horse over, reined in the reins and slowed down. The Zhang family brothers rushed forward to lead the horses, and they had to help the commander and others take care of the horses... Yu Liang came here to do this.

A group of people meet in one place. Yu Liang said casually: "General Zhang has made great contributions to the East Island. Even the officials mentioned your name when you returned to Beijing. You should be promoted soon, right?"

Zhang Jiankui said with a smile: "I'm afraid we have to wait, the pit above is full of butts, how to get promoted?"

Yu Liang hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Whenever there is an opportunity, the military commander must first think of Commander Zhang."

"That's natural!" Zhang Jiankui said, then turned his head and said, "I'm going up, I won't forget my brothers."

Yu Liang took the opportunity to inquire again: "Where is the imperial court going to fight?"

Zhang Jiankui glanced at him, and said bluntly: "The main force is going to the west. If you don't come with us this time, maybe you will go to the northeast to build Liuhuabao."

"The two sides are going to war together?" Yu Liang asked slightly surprised.

Zhang Jiankui shook his head and said: "First do the west, and prepare for the east. I heard that Li Yiyin, a party member, is making waves in the northwest, and the Liao Kingdom is also about to make trouble in the northeast. Can we watch the people outside make troubles at will? Daxu Tieqi will go and smash the dog|day to pieces!"

"Hahaha……"

...

The founding government of Tokyo.

While pondering, Li Chuyun murmured, "Han Tong is good at fighting in water; Yang Biao is from the infantry of the original Xiaodi Army, and he is still a little bit close to the big scene; Luo Yanhuan and Shi Yanchao are good at cavalry raids..."

Zhongli smiled and said, "Mr. Li strongly recommends Shi Yanchao."

Li Chuyun turned his head, and the two looked at each other, each with a sudden look.

Everyone in the army knew that Shi Yanchao was rebellious, except for the emperor, only Li Chuyun could barely subdue him! Because Li Chuyun has a higher status than Shi Yanchao. If the imperial court wants to use Shi Yanchao, Li Chuyun must preside over the overall situation, otherwise whoever decides will have nothing to do with Shi Yanchao.

Both Li Chuyun and Zhongli are trying to win the opportunity to lead the army, otherwise Han Tong's reputation will be higher than that... But Han Tong is not a good person, he is not humble in his words and actions.

Li Chuyun pondered for a moment, then said: "Except for the Duke, General Dong Zunhui..."

Zhongli said: "That kid is so young, why is he in charge?"

Li Chuyun said calmly: "I don't know why, but I have an intuition that today I take special care of this person and have high hopes for him."

Zhongli said in a low voice: "There are two princes and one princess in the official family. The first son is born to the empress of the Eastern Palace, and the second son is born to the noble concubine, who is the grandson of Duke Li, the princess..."

Li Chuyun's expression changed, and he hurriedly said: "The princess is the daughter of Concubine Shu (Yulian)."

"It's true in name." Zhongli said.

The two fell silent for a long time.

After a long while, Li Chuyun said: "Dong Zunjiao's fire is so close, it's a child's play to let him take charge of the Northwest. The territory controlled by the Zhe family is the base camp of this war, and they need to provide food, grass, and local military conditions; can Dong Zunjiao subdue Zhe Dejian?"

Zhongli pondered and forgot to respond for a moment.

Li Chuyun also said meaningfully: "Without awe-inspiring prestige, it is impossible to preside over the overall situation."

Zhongli finally nodded and agreed: "Mr. Li is really the best coach in this battle. The northwest is vast, so you need to be brave and resourceful. Just knowing how to fight is not enough."

Li Chuyun said again: "You have to be loyal even if you are thousands of miles away from the country. My lord is loyal to the youngest son of today, and the sun and the moon can learn from each other!"

Zhongli looked at Li Chuyun with great interest.

Li Chuyun noticed his gaze, and immediately patted his chest and said: "The present country is worth a chance to be strong and prosperous, and the imperial dynasty is blessed with billions of people. I am so heartbroken that I have to be loyal to the country. Otherwise, how can I see the ancestors of China?!

The important matter of the country is related to the prosperity and decline of the country, and I should do my part. How can I let the incompetent have the overall situation in mind? "

Zhongli said: "Mr. Li's loyalty is deeply cherished by this old man."

Li Chuyun raised his head, smug, cursed and swore again, expressing his loyalty in private. There are no outsiders here, and no one can see that his loyalty is not to flatter the superior.

... A few days later, Li Chuyun went to the southern suburban school to observe the training of the guards, and happened to meet Shi Yanchao.

The princes are all military generals, but they have no military power during the non-war period, and they have nothing to do all day long. Shi Yanchao also likes to stroll on the school grounds to watch the training of soldiers, and Li Chuyun met him when he came here.

When Shi Yanchao saw Li Chuyun, he sat on a tall horse and glanced sideways. Anyone who sees that style is very uncomfortable!

However, Li Chuyun stroked his thick black beard with a smile, as if he was used to it, and took the initiative to say: "Shi Gong is so interested!"

Shi Yanchao sneered, "Yo, so it's Mr. Li."

Li Chuyun rode his horse closer, watched the bustling scene on the school field from a distance, and said casually: "Li still prefers to watch the scene of cavalry on the battlefield, such as clouds of iron cavalry all over the mountains and plains, it is really exciting..."

Sure enough, Shi Yanchao's expression changed immediately, and a bright red color appeared on his big face.

Li Chuyun saw it in his eyes, and knew that this guy was a pure martial artist, and he liked to fight, without any reason! Moreover, Shi Yanchao is very murderous, avenging his brother and exalting Xu Jun's military prestige are bullshit, he just likes bloodthirsty killing|killing.

Shi Yanchao's blood was aroused by someone, and he hummed immediately: "Isn't the imperial court going to sweep the northwest? The infantry is as slow as tortoises. There is no cavalry in that place!"

"There is more than one cavalry general in the army." Li Chuyun said lightly.

Shi Yanchao turned his head and said, "Who else?"

Li Chuyun said: "There are many, such as Dong Zunhui."

"Haha..." Shi Yanchao raised his head and laughed abruptly, almost to the point of tears, as if there was nothing funnier than this in the world.

Li Chuyun didn't smile at all: "Why is General Shi laughing?"

Shi Yanchao shook his head and said with a smile: "Huangkou boy, he is just like a grandson in front of Lao Tzu!"

Li Chuyun smiled and said: "During the Han Dynasty, Dong Qubing was enshrined as a wolf when he was less than twenty years old. The hero is not old. General Shi didn't know that Dong Zunhui was also compared to Huo Qubing besides the title of General Leopard?"

Shi Yanchao laughed again: "From now on, I might as well call him Dong Qubing!"

Li Chuyun turned his head to look at him, but he could only look up to see Shi Yanchao's face, this guy was too tall... This made people with higher status than Shi Yanchao very uncomfortable.

Seeing Shi Yanchao's arrogant appearance, Li Chuyun really didn't want to say more. But it is precisely such a person who has blood on his hands and has offended countless people... He shouted loudly that a general of the imperial army is his grandson, how could he live in a high position until now? It seems not easy to think about it.

The two stopped talking, and there was nothing interesting to say anyway. They watched the phalanxes in uniform moving on the school grounds, repeatedly practicing military discipline.

"Papa..." The sound of firecrackers came from the wind, and the white smoke was mixed in the dust. Teams of cavalry waved their knives and guns and galloped in formations. Strict military discipline and excellent equipment, Xu Jun relied on these things to win again and again. The Manchu civil and military unanimously advocated strengthening the advantages of Xu Jun to obtain greater benefits for the dynasty!

Shi Yanchao who was next to him ignored Li Chuyun any more, he just sat on his horse and looked at it with gusto.
