Chapter 723: Promoted to General
"Take the bow and arrows of the lonely."
Emperor Yang of Sui's whim was so casual.
Yuwen Chengdu's calm face on the side was full of jealousy behind it.
Changsun Sheng was very stunned, he had never thought of using a bow and arrow on top of the palace.
"Your Majesty, the minister will show it outside the palace."
"Changsun Sheng, you don't have to be restrained, just come to Lone's side, there was a Lu Buyuan Gate Halberd in ancient times, it is better to follow the example of the ancients today, erect a halberd at the door of the main hall, and reward you with three arrows when you hit Lonely, but you have to behave well and don't let Lone down."
The emperor's order, Changsun Sheng had to obey.
When Changsun Sheng got the emperor's bow and arrow, he could feel the extraordinary nature of the bow when he started it, and the tension of the bowstring was not much better than the quality of the bow he used.
His liking for the bow made him ignore some of his nervousness a little.
"Your Majesty, it's better to use the minister's gilding as the target." Yuwen Chengdu spoke up.
Emperor Yang of Sui didn't care about a weapon, he just agreed immediately.
Although the Yuwen level of gilding boring is like a trident, the blade is much thinner than the kind of halberd used by the guards outside the palace, which increases the difficulty of hitting in disguise.
He didn't feel anything wrong with making this request, and the generals all understood that if they wanted to touch this kind of weapon, they would have to settle grudges, but no one broke it.
Changsun Sheng knew that this was a dismount from Yuwen Chengdu, and if it was in the barracks or somewhere else, he might have directly admitted defeat, but not at this moment.
is related to his own future, even if he offends the Yuwen family, his eldest grandson family used to be a nobleman of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and his background is not necessarily much worse than his Yuwen family.
"General Changsun, you have to be more accurate."
Yuwen Chengdu personally held the gilded boring at the door of the battle hall, which made the atmosphere even more tense, what should I do if the sword is eyeless, if the arrow misses.
Yu Wenhua was a little worried in his heart, he understood that Yuwen Chengdu's skills were not worth it for this opportunity, and now the eldest grandson family was offended.
Although he is not afraid of the Yuwen family, the way he has an accident does not conform to his concept.
Changsun Sheng opened his bow and arrows, and he could tell the result with a full of effort, and everyone didn't blink at this moment.
Emperor Yang of Sui is also looking forward to it.
As a result, Changsun Sheng closed the bow.
At this time, the officials above the court began to discuss, especially those who were good friends with the Yuwen family, Yuwen Chengdu's attitude was all there, and all the smart ones said cool things.
"I'm still too young, maybe I'm nervous."
didn't say it too badly, but when you hear it in other people's ears, it will make people think that Changsun Sheng has no ability.
Everyone is a good-looking person, and it is understandable that there is no rumored strength, after all, it is normal for many people to praise and exaggerate from noble backgrounds.
Gossip appeared in the lower hall at this time.
Emperor Yang of Sui didn't have a good face, his expectation was a waste of expression, he, the emperor, was very stingy and held grudges.
I already want to know how to target this eldest grandson, the reason why there is no trouble now is that he takes care of the background of other people, and they are all nobles with heads and faces, even if they make trouble, they have to find a good opportunity.
Yuwen Chengdu saw that Sun Sheng put down his bow and arrows, and he was very proud in his heart, which showed that his deterrence was effective.
Just when the emperor was about to get angry and the ministers were thinking about whether they would really kill Changsun Sheng next, they saw that Changsun Sheng quickly took out two more arrows.
The three arrows fired again
In the blink of an eye, three arrows flew out.
Whoosh!
The three arrows and three sounds seemed to be mixed together, and it was difficult for anyone who was not to have amazing ears to distinguish them.
The next moment, the gilded boring that Yuwen Chengdu was holding was trembling at a speed that everyone could see clearly.
The sound of gold and iron immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Yuwen Chengdu felt his hand tremble slightly, and he heard the sound of three golden and iron intersecting, he was a person with strong martial arts, and the three arrows hit his gold boring together in the blink of an eye.
Not only that, but there were also three scratches clearly on the good gold boring, and he regretted a little that he stood up and used his weapon as a target.
You must know that he is very tight on his weapons, unless he usually has to take good care of them in battle.
There are also a lot of generals in the court, and the situation just now was done when a group of people were distracted, and Emperor Yang of Sui sat in a high position and saw it very clearly in the middle.
"Good archery is worthy of a talent."
"Haha, Eldest Sun Sheng listens to the seal."
Changsun Sheng respectfully waited for his opportunity, looking forward to it very much.
"Promote Changsun Sheng to the general of Zuo Wuwei, and bring 200,000 soldiers and horses to take back Jiangling City, you can do it?"
"The minister commands."
Changsun Sheng once again gave a craftsman salute, and his face could not hide his excitement, General Zuo Wuwei This is an official who has been promoted to one level and can command 200,000 troops, this is the rhythm of being reused.
He is not stupid Bai Tian, he knows that if he attacks Jiangling, his future will be guaranteed in the future.
"The Ministry of War, as soon as possible, the 200,000 soldiers and horses must do things well."
Emperor Yang of Sui was happy in his heart, he knew that Changsun Sheng was elected by the generals, and the soldiers and horses for this expedition were all settled.
He was happy to see it happen if he could not move the guards.
As for how the aristocratic forces can help, as the emperor, he naturally has an opportunity to take advantage of it.
He knew in his heart that the aristocratic group was not doing this just for the treasure of Chen Guo, even if he let Changsun Sheng get it at most, he would give some away.
Although he didn't want to do this, the power he now controlled still couldn't shake those nobles, and after considering the pros and cons, he chose the side that was in his favor.
Changsun Sheng became a general, and at this time, the temperament of the whole person changed.
"Please take back the bow of the bow."
Changsun Sheng raised the bow and arrow in his hand, and his strength had been demonstrated, and it was a good time for the thing to return to its original owner.
"This bow has followed the lonely battle for many years, you have this kind of arrow without false archery, the beauty of the lonely adult, I will give you this bow."
Eldest Sun Sheng was excited, the things given by the emperor had saved face for the family, and he immediately bowed down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward." ”
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty let Changsun Sheng join the ranks of the generals, and now General Zuo Wuwei is able to stand in the front.
After preparing for half a month, Changsun Sheng left Luoyang and went to Jiangling.
Some of Changsun Sheng's soldiers and horses came from the selection of the guards, and most of them came from military service, and the efficiency of having someone to support them was high.
Not only is the recruitment of soldiers and horses fast, but the grain and grass are not lagging behind.
Emperor Yang of Sui was looking forward to Changsun Sheng.
"Nameless, what's the news over there in Gangneung?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Xiao Miao's people are still digging and haven't found a way to enter the mausoleum until now."
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty did not feel any exaggeration that the city could withstand several times more enemies, just like he heard that Xiao Mo had sent people to dig up the mausoleum until now.
Building a mausoleum is not a random task in itself, and it is not surprising that you can't get in without opening the mechanism.
