Chapter Forty-Six: The March
Cheng Shengnan, who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, is familiar with the art of war, and takes Mulan as his idol.
The last time in the court, Cheng Shengnan said in front of the king that Tubo dared to invade, and she was willing to lead the army to fight.
Cheng Shengnan really wants to go.
As for Li Su, in fact, he really doesn't want to go to the battlefield.
After all, there are too many fierce generals in the Tang Dynasty, no matter who they send, they can make the fart and urine of Tubo go to the ground.
There is no need for Li Su to wade into this troubled water.
Staying in Chang'an to build a kiln to fire glassware, isn't he fragrant?
However, last time, above the court, he let go of his bold words.
If you don't get married, you don't get married, the king dies, and the prince guards the country.
Now the Tibetans have really called.
If he didn't express it, the previous gentleman's prelude to the right time would be a slap in the face.
However, Li Su believed that Li Shimin and the ministers of the DPRK and China would definitely not let him go on the expedition.
He's just a gentleman, let him go on the expedition, isn't it to add chaos!
However, it backfired.
In the end, his request to go to war was quickly approved.
Not only him, but also Cheng Shengnan's request to participate in the battle was also allowed.
Cheng Shengnan will lead 3,000 cavalry, as the vanguard, to Songzhou first.
Li Su, as the prince, will cooperate with Cheng Shengnan to go on the expedition together.
Uh, okay.
In fact, Li Su went out with the army, more often as a mascot.
I believe that Li Shimin did not have much expectation of his military ability.
However, this time Li Su's expedition is of great significance.
Because, he represents the prince and the face of the royal family.
It has also truly fulfilled the prince's promise to guard the country.
After getting the news, Li Su had no choice but to prepare to go on the expedition.
In King Liang's mansion, the little girl Xiu'er was in tears, packing her bags for Li Su.
"Your Highness, you are on an expedition, and the sword has no eyes, you must be careful."
"Your Highness, Xiu'er is not serving by your side, Your Highness must take care of herself."
"Your Highness, why don't you show off your children and dress up as men, and follow Your Highness to serve Your Highness."
Li Yu laughed and said: "This is a march to fight, and you don't go on an outing, what do you say if you go along." ”
"Xiu'er, you can rest assured, this king is the commander, and you don't have to go into battle to kill the enemy in person, there will be no danger."
……
On the second day, Li Su was wearing armor, riding a sweaty and bloody horse, and holding an overlord halberd.
It looks majestic and decent.
This time, Li Su also brought Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen to go together.
Since it is a war, this Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen can naturally come in handy.
By the time Li Su arrived at the military field, Cheng Shengnan and 3,000 cavalry had already been assembled.
Li Su couldn't help but look at Cheng Shengnan in front of the army.
I saw Cheng Shengnan riding a jujube red high-headed horse, wearing a red robe, chain mail, and a bright silver spear.
At this time, the dawn began to shine on her.
Heroic and sassy, for a while, Li Su actually felt that she was bright and beautiful.
Li Su's heart trembled fiercely.
Immediately after, Li Su hurriedly shook his head and quickly withdrew his gaze.
I'll make up!
I thought this female devil was beautiful just now? Sexy?
Actually moved by her?
This is also terrifying, right?
And at this moment, Cheng Shengnan looked at Li Su with unkind eyes.
"What were your eyes just now? What are you looking at? ”
Li Su smiled and said: "The sassy and heroic five-foot gun, the dawn is shining on the military field." The sons and daughters of China have many strange ambitions, and they do not love red clothes and love arms. ”
Hearing Li Su's poem, Cheng Shengnan was slightly stunned, and then said: "My gun is not five feet, it is about nine feet long. ”
Li Su hurriedly said: "Okay, then change it to a sassy and heroic nine-foot gun." ”
Next, Li Su found that a smile actually appeared on the corner of Cheng Shengnan's mouth.
What a coquettish look, he actually called Li Su again.
"Let's go!"
With Cheng Shengnan's order, three thousand vanguard cavalry set off quickly.
The departure is thick, and Cheng Shengnan has been observing Li Su and Yanyun Eighteen Riders.
If it weren't for the emperor's order, Cheng Shengnan wouldn't want to take this gentleman to the battlefield.
Well, although this gentleman prince has a lot of strength, he can fight better than her.
But can he endure hardship?
Can you travel long distances? Can you eat a simple meal, live in a simple tent?
Marching and fighting, not playing at home, marching with such a gentleman prince is like child's play.
However, this time, the eighteen cavalry brought by His Royal Highness King Liang made Cheng Shengnan look at him differently.
She vaguely felt that these eighteen cavalry were very strong.
I'm afraid that against the last team of 100 people, I didn't have the strength to fight.
Cheng Shengnan's vision is really good.
However, she still far underestimated the strength of Yan Yun's eighteen horses.
Of course, before the actual battlefield, many things are difficult to see with the naked eye.
And as he observed all the way, Cheng Shengnan couldn't help but look at this prince differently.
She only knew that His Royal Highness King Liang was very capable of fighting, but she didn't expect that his riding skills were so exquisite.
Which horse he rode was unusually majestic, and it couldn't be easier to follow the army.
And those eighteen cavalry showed even more terrifying strength.
Because along the way, the formation of their eighteen people, in the march, was able to maintain a consistent distance.
Almost all the time, it doesn't make a difference.
This time, Cheng Shengnan was ready to march in a hurry.
Although they are only pioneers, they are just playing the front station.
Its purpose was only to block or delay the advance of the Tibetan army.
But Cheng Shengnan doesn't think so.
This is her first expedition and she is determined to achieve an impressive result.
At least a few victories were needed to kill hundreds of Tibetan soldiers.
And their vanguard army is all cavalry.
And there are supplies along the way.
That is, they marched and did not need to carry baggage.
In this way, their ability to march can be greatly strengthened.
And if they arrived at the battlefield one day earlier, they would be able to make the people in the Tang Frontier suffer less slaughter by the Tubo soldiers.
Therefore, along the way, Cheng Shengnan decided to march in a hurry.
At noon, they just rested for more than half an hour to light a fire and cook.
After eating and resting for a while, immediately marched.
During the meal, Cheng Shengnan observed which King of Liang frowned.
But he still swallowed the food quickly.
After eating and marching, he did not complain.
This discovery made Cheng Shengnan quietly relieved.
At the same time, the impression of King Liang has also been further improved.
And that night, when the army was encamped.
Yan Yi also said to Li Su: "This female general, the commander of the march, and the camping are quite disciplined and have the style of a general. ”
Yan Yi is the head of Yan Yun's eighteen horses.
These eighteen people don't even have names of their own.
Li Su didn't bother to name them, and directly named them from Yan 1 to Yan 18.
Hearing Yanyi's evaluation of Cheng Shengnan, Li Su was also surprised.
Unexpectedly, Yan Yi spoke so highly of Cheng Shengnan.
