Chapter 781: Friction (Part II)

South school field, as the name suggests, is located in the south of Luoyang City martial arts field, the area is not small, there is a full ten square circle, in this inch of land in Luoyang City, only the royal family has such a courage to divide such a large piece of open space as a military exercise venue, of course, this military exercise field is big, but for the cavalry, but it is inevitably smaller, the group charge drill has no room at all, and can only do some group exercises, at this time, there is a cavalry army here to carry out exercises, But seeing a team of ten people galloping back and forth on the field, dusty, murderous and soaring into the sky, it was really not mighty!

"Fang Xiaoshan, how did you lead the team, speed up Lao Tzu, and then grind like this, the military stick is waiting!"

Although the galloping cavalry squad on the field was full of majesty, Zhang Mingwu, the general of the tiger army, was obviously not satisfied, with a straight face, and roared coldly.

"Humph!"

Adhering to the tradition of the Hexi Army, Zhang Mingwu governed the army strictly, even to the point of being a little harsh, he couldn't get used to Fang Xiaoshan's casualness, even if he was even favored by the prince, Zhang Mingwu didn't give him a very good look, and a cold snort was full of dissatisfaction, of course, it was not exactly for Fang Xiaoshan alone, but more dissatisfied with the current mental state of the soldiers under his command - the Hexi Army has always been known for its toughness, but now it has been transferred to the palace for several years, limited to the venue and duties, it is difficult to have a continuous training, Today's combat power is obviously inferior compared to the past, which makes Zhang Mingwu happy.

"Boom ......"

Just as the guards of the East Palace were in full swing, a rumbling sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded, and then a cavalry army of thousands of people rushed into the south school yard on horseback.

"Huh?"

Hearing the sound, Zhang Mingwu quickly raised his eyes and looked over, and when he saw that it was the Yulin Army, he couldn't help but be stunned, and his brows immediately tightened - there is only one school field in Luoyang City, and the East Palace Guard Rate and the Yulin Army have the right to use it, but in the past, the Yulin Army was loose in military discipline, and there was no tradition of early training.

"Herald: Whole team!"

No matter what the Yulin Army wanted to do, Zhang Mingwu didn't want to clash with the other party, and after a little silence, he issued an order to withdraw the troops.

"Woo, woo, woo......"

Zhang Mingyuan gave an order, and the herald who followed closely behind him immediately sounded the call to collect the troops, and in the poignant horn sound, the soldiers of the East Palace who were scattering their training quickly returned to their own team, and in a few breaths, they had already lined up the guarded formation, and looked coldly at the thousands of Lin Army cavalry who came to show off their might.

Rushing at the forefront of the Yulin Army is a burly bearded general, a bright bright light armor, holding a long horse lance, full of murderous aura, obviously not a good person, this person is the new Zuo Yulin Army General Cheng Wuting - Cheng Wuting, his father is the early Tang Dynasty famous general Cheng Mingzhen, Ping'en (now southeast of Quzhou, Hebei) people, known for his bravery, since he was a child, he followed his father to fight in Liaodong, in several battles to destroy Goguryeo, have made great contributions, after his father's death, he took over the post of governor of Liaodong, After this battle to suppress the Turkic rebellion, he was ordered to lead 5,000 iron cavalry into the eastern capital, and became a hot upstart in the court.

"Array!"

Although Cheng Wuting has always served in Liaodong, he has been famous for the prestige of the Hexi Army for a long time, and at this time, seeing that the Donggong Guard led the army so quickly, and the formation was so strict, his eyes immediately narrowed, but he did not say much, but waved his hand and gave a general order in a loud voice.

The Liaodong Army is also famous for being good at cavalry and archery, and they are all heroes of a hundred battles, and the speed of the formation is not slow, but when you hear the sound of horses' hooves, thousands of galloping cavalry have stopped in an instant, and they quickly lined up the formation to meet the enemy, and thousands of men and horses stood still, although they were speechless, but the murderous spirit was instantly rushed into the sky.

Although there is a difference in the strength of the two iron cavalry, but in terms of momentum, it is almost the same, under this confrontation, the ** smell in the air is very sufficient, and there is a sense of killing if you don't agree.

"Go, tell the guy on the other side that this land has been requisitioned by my Yulin Army, let them go!"

Although he was surprised by the strictness of the army led by Donggong Wei, Cheng Wuting, who had received a secret order, did not intend to coexist peacefully with the army led by Donggong Wei, and after a moment of confrontation between the two armies, Cheng Wuting pouted impatiently, waved his hand, and gave an order in a cold voice.

"Listen to the people on the other side, this place has been requisitioned by my Yulin Army, and the idle people will withdraw immediately, otherwise, the military law will be engaged!"

Cheng Wuting ordered, and one of his own high-voiced guards rode out of the formation, shouting proudly.

"Fart, this is a public school field, when did it become a place for your Yulin military private use!"

"Fuck off, begging for a beating!"

"Miscellaneous, uneducated dog stuff, fuck off!"

……

The Donggong Guard led the army was originally Li Xian's personal guard, and it was a hundred warriors selected from tens of thousands of elites in Hexi, and they were personally ** by Li Xian, all of them are extraordinary, and they have always been arrogant, how can they tolerate the Yulin Army to be so presumptuous, and they all scolded angrily without waiting for the main general Zhang Mingyuan to speak.

"Hmm!"

The soldiers can vent loudly, but Zhang Mingyuan, as the main general, does not dare to act recklessly, although he is also annoyed in his heart, but he has not lost his mind, knowing that the other party is deliberately looking for fault, and he does not want to really conflict with the other party, so he raised his hand, snorted coldly, stopped the angry scolding of his soldiers, and gritted his teeth with a gloomy face.

The fight is sure to win, don't look at the strong horses and horses of the Yulin army, the strength is twice as much as the army led by the Donggong Guard, but in terms of equipment, it is far from the old nose - each soldier of the Donggong Guard is equipped with sharp weapons such as firecrackers and chain crossbows, which are many times stronger than the bows and arrows equipped by the Yulin Army, not to mention the strong martial arts in the army led by the Donggong Guard, if the two sides really fight, Zhang Mingyuan has full confidence in annihilating the other party, but this battle cannot be fought, and even cannot conflict with the other party, not for anything else, Just because the other party is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, if there is a conflict with the other party, no matter whether it is right or wrong, and whether it wins or not, at the end of the day, the only one who suffers is the Donggong Wei rate, which is completely due to the pattern, although Zhang Mingyuan is unwilling, he is also helpless.

"Turn left, retreat!"

Despite the anger in his heart, Zhang Mingyuan gritted his teeth and gave the order to withdraw the army, and then glared at Cheng Wuting fiercely, and led the army to leave the southern battlefield.

"Rats,!"

"Haha......, the guts of the rats, pretending to be a strong army, seeing me and others, it's like a mouse seeing a cat, boring, boring!"

"Seed, a bunch of waste!"

……

Donggong Wei led the army to make concessions, but the Yulin army, who had a heart for trouble, refused to give up, laughed and scolded, and tried his best to be sarcastic, which suddenly made the Donggong Wei and the soldiers all angry and angry, but the main general did not give the order, but no one dared to move, so he could only grit his teeth and silently rode towards the gate.

"Hmm!"

Seeing that Donggong Wei was leading the army to leave, Cheng Wuting, who had received a secret order, naturally refused to let go, waved his hand, snorted from his nostrils, and saw a small group of Yulin Army soldiers rushing out of the formation on horseback, and rushed towards the marching army led by Donggong Wei regardless of the ground.

"Damn dogs, deceive people too much, brothers, fuck them!"

This small group of Yulin officers and soldiers collided with Fang Xiaoshan's group of officers and soldiers, this time seeing that the Yulin army was so arrogant, Fang Xiaoshan was angry when he boarded, and he didn't wait for Zhang Mingyuan to give an order, he roared, twisted the horse's head, and led his troops to make a sharp turn, and met the Yulin officers and soldiers who rushed to meet without showing weakness.

"Puff, puff......"

The distance between the two sides was already close, under this hedge, without waiting for Zhang Mingyuan to react, the two sides had already handed over, although they were both holding sheathed knives to fight, but the victory and defeat were quickly divided - more than half of the more than 120 officers and soldiers of the Yulin Cavalry who rushed over rolled off their horses, and the more than 120 Donggong guards who led the army to meet only a dozen people fell off their horses, and the superiority of the two sides is self-evident.

"Damn it, fire the gun!"

Zhang Mingyuan is also a bloody brave person, he swallowed his anger before, not because he was afraid of his opponent, but because he didn't want to cause trouble for Li Xian, but at this time, he saw that his side had already retreated, and the other party was still so arrogant, the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed, and he broke off with a black face.

"Bah, ......"

As soon as the general ordered, the 2,500 officers and soldiers led by the Donggong guards took out the fire guns on their waists and fired them into the sky, and in the smoke of gunpowder, a burst of gunfire as dense as fried beans burst out.

As soon as the deafening gunshots rang out, most of the war horses under the crotches of the Yulin officers and soldiers were frightened, and the originally strict formation was suddenly a big chaos, and the war horses under the crotches of the soldiers led by the Donggong Wei had long been accustomed to the sound of gunshots, and they were basically not affected too much, just a slight commotion, there was no doubt that if the two sides fought at this time, the Yulin army would be defeated.

"Withdraw!"

After shocking the Yulin Army, Zhang Mingyuan did not attack further, but twisted his horse's head, led his troops to rush out of the gate of the South School Field, and rushed back to the East Palace along the South Street, even if it disturbed the people along the road, but he couldn't take care of it much, just because of this incident, the consequences were unpredictable, and he must report the incident to Li Xian as soon as possible.

"Rubbish, a bunch of rubbish! Back to the palace! ”

The chaos of the Yulin army is not so easy to control, obviously saw the retreat of the Donggong guard, but there was no power to stop it, until the Donggong guard led the army has gone far, the soldiers of the Yulin army reluctantly calmed down the frightened war horse, during which I don't know how many officers and soldiers were frightened and fell off the horse, this kind of situation really made Cheng Wuting so annoyed that the green tendons on his forehead jumped out, and he had no intention of staying here longer, after scolding angrily, he immediately led his troops to rush out of the south school field, Rushing towards the Imperial City......
