Chapter 239: Lance Battle
Chapter 262: Lance Battle
After the wine and food were served, everyone drank and ordered, and everyone enjoyed themselves.
Li Yu and Zhi Rou were the first to leave the table, and then Li You also left the table under the pretext of drinking too much, and the remaining few people were still struggling at the table.
When Zhang Yunwen asked the three of them why they were here, Su Dingfang immediately said with his eyebrows fluttering: "Yunwen, do you know that Lao Tzu has been promoted!" Transferred from Captain Zhichong to Yu Lin Wei as a pro-Xun Yiwei Yu Lin Lang general! ”
Zhang Yunwen immediately said with contempt: "You are a sixth-rank lieutenant in Zhechong Mansion, and you are still a sixth-grade when you come to Yulinwei, what kind of promotion is it!" ”
"That's different! In the past, in Zhichong Mansion, Lao Tzu brought a maximum of 1,000 soldiers and horses, and if he became a general, when he was fighting, the number of commanders was more than 1,000! ”
Zhang Yunwen nodded, Han Xin ordered troops, the more the merrier, this Su Dingfang really has the demeanor of a general! However, thinking of Yu Linwei's duty, it is to defend the Beijing Division, and rarely send troops to fight, Su Dingfang's desire to lead troops may be in vain. Just wanted to say these words, but he saw Su Dingfang's eyebrows dancing and his face was radiant, and the words that came to his mouth were swallowed back.
And Lu Chengqing had just returned from the Jiangnan assessment officials, and he had time to enter Chang'an today, so he had to stay in this post station. Speaking of inspecting officials in Jiangnan, Lu Chengqing said with a smile: "When Xia Guan inspected officials in Jiangnan, he remembered that there was an official who supervised the transportation of grain, and this person was transferred into the river due to the capsizing of the boat in the process of transporting grain. Therefore, the official examined: 'Supervising the loss of grain, the middle and lower in the examination', gave him a middle and lower evaluation. The official, however, was calm and speechless. When the official saw that he was magnificent and elegant, he should have commented: 'It is beyond his power, he will be in the middle of the examination', and he changed the evaluation of the middle school. Clinker this person is neither happy nor ashamed. When the lower official saw this person like this, he immediately appreciated it very much, so he changed his note: 'Don't be shocked by the humiliation, and get in the upper part of the exam'. This person is really pampered, it's really rare! ”
Hearing Lu Chengqing say this, Zhang Yunwen said with a smile: "Lu Yuan's grandeur and elegance are even more rare!" If it is an ordinary official inspection, where will he come to inspect the conduct of an official like Lu Yuanwai, he will definitely be sentenced to the middle and lower or even the lower because of this loss of food! ”
Lu Chengqing heard Zhang Yunwen's words, but he only smiled faintly and took a sip of wine.
Zhang Wenjun, who was on the side, suddenly smiled: "Brother Lu is also not surprised!" ”
When it was Zhang Wenjun's turn, I only heard him say: "The students came to Chang'an this time, but they came to participate in the scientific examination!" Unexpectedly, I met a foreigner, two generals, and one of them is the world-famous General Zhang! ”
Zhang Yunwen smiled and said, "Brother Zhang is polite!" I want to be the secretary of the Zhang family, and I have been a marquis since the Han Dynasty, and my family has a history. Now that I have come to respond, I will be able to soar into the sky, show my ambitions, and the future is limitless! There is also Lu Yuanwai, and although he is a member of the outside, Lu Yuanwai is loyal and upright, young and strong, and when he accumulates qualifications, he will definitely have a bright future! And you, big brother, are well versed in strategy, proficient in the art of war, and excellent in martial arts, if someone has someone to point to, you will definitely become a generation of famous generals! ”
Hearing Zhang Yunwen say this, the three of them each lowered their heads, thinking about it, the more they thought about it, the more they felt that it made sense, and the meaning of mutual friendship in their hearts became stronger.
And Li You, who was on the side, listened to their words, but smiled unnaturally.
When the banquet was over and the accommodation was allocated, Lu Chengqing gave up the room for Li You to live in and found an ordinary room by himself. As for Li You's entourage, they still live in ordinary rooms.
On the second day, when the sun had just jumped out of the horizon, the heavy gate of Chang'an City Gate gradually opened, and the traveling merchants waiting outside the city gate suddenly lined up in a long queue and entered the city in turn.
After breakfast in the post station, Zhang Yunwen, Su Dingfang, and Lu Chengqing hurried to the palace. Zhang Yunwen was going to rush to the Taiji Hall before the court meeting, and Su Dingfang and Lu Chengqing were going to the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials to sign in.
Finally came to the Taiji Hall before the court meeting began, threw the instrument knife on his waist to the door supervisor by the door, and hurriedly entered the hall.
made a wooden stake for more than an hour at the court meeting, and after the dispersal of the court, Zhang Yunwen did not go home, but came to the ministry.
He came to the ministry, but it was to invite Su Dingfang to be his guest. But when he arrived at the ministry, he was told that Su Dingfang had gone to Yulinwei, and immediately went to Yulinwei.
With the waist card, Zhang Yunwen successfully entered Yulinwei.
In fact, this Yulinwei is a saying circulated in the army, not the official title, the official title is called "left and right camps", stationed in the Xuanwu Gate, guarding the north of the imperial city, and the responsibilities of the Yulin Army in the Han Dynasty are similar, so the army calls it "Yulinwei". At the time of the Xuanwumen Change, Yu Linwei once attacked to help Li Shimin resist the soldiers and horses of the East Palace. Therefore, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, Yulinwei was expanded, and the heirs of the British martyrs over the years were selected to enter Yulinwei.
Today, there are more than 6,000 soldiers on the left and right Yulin Guards, and the general in charge is Li Daoxuan.
found Su Dingfang in Yu Linwei's big tent. At this time, he was sitting in the big tent, talking to Li Daoxuan.
After expressing his intention to the two, Li Daoxuan smiled and said: "General Su, uh, Dingfang, since you are Yunwen's sworn brother, you are not an outsider!" Don't worry, if anyone dares to disobey you in the camp, just say it to Lao Tzu! Okay, since Yunwen came to pick it up, then the king won't keep you! You just go with Yunwen first! ”
After the two came out of the barracks, Zhang Yunwen came to the mansion of Wei Chigong and the Liu brothers, and the Wei Chigong family, the two brothers of the Liu family and their sister-in-law invited them over, saying that they were going to have a banquet at home today.
took Su Dingfang back to the mansion first, and instructed the maid and servant to prepare a banquet.
It didn't take long for Wei Chigong's family and the Liu family to come to Zhang Yunwen's mansion one after another.
After Zhang Yunwen beckoned everyone to sit down, Zhang Yunwen said with a smile: "Presumably, Master and the two brothers are strange that I invited you over to the banquet this time, but in fact, it is still mine. In the past few years, except for being together during the New Year's holidays, everyone has rarely gathered! Today, Brother Su came to Beijing Division, and I took this opportunity, so I asked everyone to come and get together, which can be regarded as getting to know each other! Come, Master, let me introduce you, this is my eldest brother Su Lie Su Dingfang! ”
Wei Chigong glanced at Su Dingfang up and down, and said with a smile full of appreciation: "I have long heard what Pharmacist Li said, Su Lie is a generation of fierce generals, and two hundred cavalry will dare to attack three thousand Turks!" And when Yunwen needed reinforcements, he was the first to rush over! When I saw it today, it was really extraordinary! I heard that Dingfang's horse lance kung fu is very good, and you will compete with the old man for two games later! ”
Su Dingfang hurriedly said modestly: "How can the last general compare with General Wei Chi!" When the general was for His Majesty, he swung a horse lance to kill in and out of the army, fought Shan Xiongxin, and captured the enemy general alive. ”
Hearing Su Dingfang talk about these things, Wei Chigong's blackened face couldn't help but show a trace of pride: "It's just some old things, so don't mention it!" ”
Zhang Yunwen introduced the Liu brothers to Su Dingfang. In this war against the Turks, the Liu brothers were also recruited into the army, but they were stationed in Chai Shaozhong to garrison Taiyuan. When Zhang Yunwen first entered Taiyuan, he didn't know that the Liu brothers were in the barracks, and he didn't meet them.
Hearing that the Liu brothers are also Zhang Yunwen's brothers, Su Dingfang smiled and said his age, the Liu brothers glanced at each other, and shouted "big brother" in frustration, which made Wei Chigong laugh.
Before the wine and food came up, Wei Chigong insisted on dragging Su Dingfang to the school field to have a competition. Su Dingfang thought for a moment and agreed boldly.
So, the men in the hall, including the two brothers Yu Chi Baolin and Yu Chi Baoqing, all came to the Zhang family's school grounds, and the women, like Mrs. Yu Chi, chatted in the courtyard accompanied by Li Yu and Zhi Rou.
The school field in the backyard is not large, but it is more than enough for two people to compete. Wei Chigong and Su Dingfang each picked a big iron lance on the weapon rack under the eaves, and then silently walked to the school field and stood opposite each other.
The iron lance used by Zhang Yunwen weighed more than fifty catties, so when the two were opposed, the iron lance rested on the ground with one end, motionless, and each adjusted his breathing.
After about half a moment, Su Dingfang suddenly lifted the iron lance, stepped forward in two steps, and stabbed Wei Chigong is stab. Yu Chigong lifted the iron lance and casually opened the thorn.
Su Dingfang didn't expect this thorn to have any effect, and when the iron lance was set up, he crossed his hands and slammed it down, making the big iron lance like a hammer.
Wei Chi Gong raised his lance to block.
The two iron lances collided violently together, making a loud metal crashing sound.
"Bell-" The iron lance in his hand kept vibrating, and the tiger's mouth was almost shattered by the huge impact. Su Dingfang hurriedly took a step back, put the iron lance on the ground, held the lance with one hand, and released it slightly, only to feel the handle of the lance beating slightly in his hand.
On the other hand, Wei Chi Gong, after Su Dingfang's blow, shouted violently, and held the trembling iron lance with both hands, as if nothing happened, and with a swing of the iron lance, the tip of the lance stabbed directly at Su Dingfang like a poisonous snake.
Seeing Wei Chigong's offensive, the Wei Chi brothers who were watching the battle on the side suddenly shouted in unison: "Come on, Daddy!" ”
Su Dingfang kicked the head of the lance that was resting on the ground. The lance flew up and stabbed back at Wei Chigong.
Seeing Su Dingfang's move, Wei Chigong's eyes couldn't help flashing a hint of appreciation, but his subordinates did not slow down in the slightest, and changed one stab to one pick, accurately picking on Su Dingfang's head.
In this way, the two of you come and go, sometimes stabbing, sometimes smashing, sometimes picking, sometimes sweeping, the two iron lances dance like dragons, and from time to time they hit each other.
Finally, two quarters of an hour later, Wei Chigong smashed a lance on Su Dingfang's tail, and then took advantage of its head to raise its head and slammed his lance tail on the head of the lance, knocking Su Dingfang's iron lance away.
"Haha, happy! Joyfully! Wei Chigong put away the iron lance, laughed and said, "Dingfang, you are much better than Yunwen's kid!" can fight with the old man for such a long time, almost as long as Wang Bodang and Shan Xiongxin back then! ”
Su Dingfang gasped slightly, and said with a modest smile: "The general is falsely praised!" This is a foot battle, if you fight with the general, I'm afraid the last general won't be able to last even a quarter of an hour! ”
Wei Chigong said: "Dingfang, don't be presumptuous, with your martial arts, you are enough to be among the best in the Tang Army!" Besides, in addition to martial arts, a general also has an outstanding strategy to become a general! ”
Hearing this, Su Dingfang nodded silently.
At this time, I heard a voice behind me: "Ladies and gentlemen, the wine and food have been prepared, and the lady is waiting for you to sit at the table!" ”
Everyone turned around to look, but Mei Xiang was standing behind everyone with a smile.
