Chapter 23: In the Clouds (2)

In the cloud city, Hengan Yingyang Mansion will be the office.

Although it occupies the most central position in Cloud City, this Lang General's office is not large, and it is not heavily guarded with three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry.

At the main entrance of the government office, Menzi was just a few disabled veterans, leaning against the wall and basking in the sun. It looks like an ordinary farmhouse compound, and only the halberd axes and axes arranged at the entrance of the government office show that this is a place for soldiers to be recruited.

Originally, the so-called Yingyang Mansion was an institution for training government soldiers, and the government soldiers were usually farmers, and they had 45 days of service every year, and the service was led by the general of Yingyang Mansion. At the time of the battle, these eagles and soldiers of each province were placed in the twelve guards, and the twelve guards were commanded by the heavy generals in order to win the court.

This system began to operate from the Northern Zhou Dynasty and lasted until the Kaihuang period. After the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, the elite of the Eagle Yang Mansion who had been conquered in the past was completely lost in several battles against Goryeo.

After the Son of Heaven took Xiaoguo south to Jiangdu, the elite of the Yingyang Mansion in various places was selected, which was already independent, and the old peasant soldiers in these Yingyang Mansions had become regular Yingyang soldiers. It turned out that the eagle soldiers were usually farmers, reduced taxes, and had to prepare their own blades and armor when training and going on expeditions, and did not lead the army's salary, and only received food when they went to war. Now almost all of them are completely out of production and have become a standing army.

It turned out to be just a training institution in the official system, but now it has become an important position in the disintegrating Great Sui Empire. In troubled times, soldiers are still the most real! Therefore, Liu Wuzhou returned to his hometown to lead Heng'an Yingyang Mansion with the captain of Jianwu, and was so hostile to Wang Rengong that he wanted to annex it quickly.

Originally, Ying Yanglang General Office was not set up, but now it occupies the most central position in Cloud City. It turned out that the county order in Yunzhong was Wang Rengong's cronies, and he had long avoided Shanyang and did not return to the place, and now the entire Yunzhong territory only knew that Hengan Yingyang Mansion Eagle Strike Lang General Office did not know the county office.

A few veterans basked in the sun against the wall, chatting lazily without a word.

"This autumn party is down, I hope I can receive some taxes, I haven't seen any money for a few months, I don't have any money in my hand, and it's hard to ............ if I want to finish drinking."

"It's good to have your yellow rice to eat, who can still do business with the grassland at this time, who doesn't have a family background? Can Liu Yingzhu get a tax from their heads? Maintain order every day, guard against these Tatars, and have to post the book upside down. ”

"The yellow rice is almost out of food, haven't you heard that Wang Taishou has stopped transporting military rations to the north? With the rent of this place in the clouds, Hengan Yingyang Mansion will not be able to eat next summer! ”

"Entering the mother, Wang Taishou is forcing us to death............ Fortunately, we have Liu Yingzhen, and we can always come up with a way! ”

"Isn't Captain Xiaoyuan leading his soldiers to the mountains to catch small traders these days? It's also a matter of urgency and bad reputation. Captain Dayuan has taken on this bad name, and I look at Liu Yingzhui and turn a blind eye, and our two or three thousand people will have to live! ”

"I just hope that Captain Xiaoyuan won't be too ruthless, they are all natives in their hometown, so let's leave a way to live. If it weren't for Wang Taishou being too fierce, he really wouldn't have been able to do such a shameless thing............"

"Who knows, I always feel like something is going to happen anyway. Liu Yingzhu relied on his good reputation to stand in this Mayi County, no matter how ruthless Wang Taishou was, he couldn't take Liu Yingzhu, if he lost his reputation, it would be difficult to say! ”

Several veterans said that they were a little complaining later, and they felt bored with each other, and they bent their necks one by one to continue basking in the sun.

At this time, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and saw a horse coming from outside in a hurry.

Several veterans stood up at once and shouted at the comers: "Lao Tu, what's wrong, so in a hurry!" ”

The person who came was wearing leather armor, did not wear a helmet, looked angry and ruined, and turned over and dismounted more than ten steps away from the Lang General's office. Glancing around, he lowered his voice and said to the old army: "Yuan Si has made trouble!" wanted to intercept and kill the caravan, the people in the caravan escaped and went straight to the clouds, and they wanted to complain to Liu Ying! Now that Yuan Si has caught up, he wants to take down these people in the caravan, and the people of the city are looking at it, what is it like! ”

The old soldier stomped his feet: "This Yuan Si is really not old!" Don't ruin these people's lives! ”

The person who came snorted: "Our captain is here, and we will not let Yuan Si be unscrupulous." Now I have to hurry up and report to Liu Yingzhu, and ask Yingzhu to decide how to end this matter! ”

After this old Tu finished speaking, he hurriedly went straight into the Lang General's Office, and the old soldiers on duty at the door glanced at each other, and one of the old soldiers finally couldn't help but admire: "This caravan is really amazing, it can actually rush all the way to Cloud City!" ”

Another veteran sighed: "I don't know if Liu Yingzheng is willing to come out, can these people wait until Liu Yingzheng arrives!" ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inside the city gate, Han Yue took the lead, and the Shentu Iron Shield was already copied in his hand, colliding with the Eagle Yang soldiers who pounced on him!

Several spears were colliding on the iron shield, Han Yue's iron shield swung left and right, and the spears grazed sparks on the iron shield and swept past both sides, and Han Yue had already hit his horse and crashed into it. The iron shield was raised to the left, and when he staggered, an eagle soldier had already been knocked off his horse and fell into the dust.

And when the other eagle soldiers staggered through the saddle, the long soldiers came back in a circle, and they had already drawn out their straight knives and iron whips, and smashed them towards Han Yue.

Song Bao followed from behind, the single halberd was in Xu Le's hand, he had already snatched a spear from his subordinates, and picked up two straight knives at once, and his shot was both steady and accurate. To be honest, Song Bao is not good at making a single halberd with an unbalanced center of gravity, holding it in his hand is nothing more than showing his majesty, the spear in his hand, but it is handy, a spear comes first, as fast as lightning, and he picks up two straight knives at once, which really lives up to his reputation as Tie Feiyan!

But there is also an Eagle Yang Soldier Commander, who is obviously the appearance of a battle-hardened formation, and with a slight stirrup, he let go of the range covered by Song Bao's spear, and the iron whip in his hand is still falling, hitting Han Yue's side ribs, this time it is really good, I am afraid that with Han Yue being so strong, he will be beaten and broken!

Han Yue's iron shield didn't have time to circle back, and suddenly fell sideways on the horse, and the whip was concentrating on the small package that Han Yue was carrying on his back. I heard the loud sound of gold and iron, and the burden skin on Han Yue's back was shattered, revealing an iron shield that was smaller in a circle!

This whipping made Han Yue's body sink, and the mount under his crotch was a hissing of Herod. But Han Yue had already taken off the iron shield behind his back with his backhand, and after such a heavy blow, Han Yue still looked like he was doing nothing, with the small shield in his hand, he turned over and handed it forward, counterattacking the fire chief's ribs, the fire chief tried his best to dodge the stirrup, but he was still wiped under the ribs, and immediately bent over in pain, his face turned pale!

Han Yue straightened up and raised his double shields: "Come up!" ”

The small shield was only half the size of the Shentu Iron Shield, and the image of another hideous god Yu Lei was carved on it, and Yu Lei spit out two iron fangs in his mouth, about a foot long, and the cold light was forested.

The so-called small door god is the double shield, the god protects the body, and Yu Lei hurts the enemy. This is all Han Yue's ability!

More and more onlookers couldn't help but burst into cheers at the same time at this time!

The people in the border areas are strong, and those who can afford to be able to fight are heroes. Although Heng'an Yingyang Mansion is considered to be his own family, Han Yue's performance is majestic, and these people in Yunzhong City will never hesitate to cheer for them!

Around Han Yue, Zhuang Kexia Shao also fought with the Eagle Yang soldiers, everyone didn't use bows and arrows, just long and short blades greeted each other, and for a while they were actually deadlocked, plus Han Yue and Song Bao, the two better people, these dozen Eagle Yang soldiers might not be able to eat them!

Yuan Junwei's face was pale, he casually dropped the hardwood spear in his hand, and with a move back, a personal guard handed over a horse lance. Yuan Junwei shook the horse lance in his hand, and the lance trembled, humming.

Yuan Junwei looked back at the more and more subordinates around him, gritted his teeth and said: "If we don't take them down, we don't have to be people in this Hengan Yingyang Mansion!" ”

Among the chasing soldiers, seven or eight horsemen came out of the crowd, all of them were first-class figures, and in the small Hengan Yingyang Mansion, these team leaders of forty or fifty people were already at the level of the backbone generals, and they did not take the lead in holding their identities just now. I can't take care of it now, so I want to take down this too difficult caravan in front of me as quickly as possible!

After seven or eight rides, Yuan Junwei also lifted the horse lance upside down and followed forward.

The black-faced general had already driven down from the city, and at this time he shouted: "Yuan Si! ”

Yuan Junwei didn't reply.

On the other end, Xu Le, who had been watching the battle, finally sighed, and also carried the single halberd upside down, gently lifted the reins, and stepped forward.
