A "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Luo Yan spoke in the Taiji Hall for half a month. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info stayed up until dark from time to time, and these ministers of civil and military affairs were still particularly dissatisfied and pulled Luo Yan to talk about it a little more than one or two times.

When Luo Yan finished the last lecture, it was already early September. Looking at the yellow leaves flying outside the hall, Li Shimin sighed and said: "As the saying goes, you can know the rise and fall by reading history, but what you say in advance, how much blood, tears and tribulations are in this rise and fall. In the past half a month, although I know that what you say is true or false, I am more willing to listen to what you say when I compare it with "Three Kingdoms". ”

"Your Majesty has praised it." Luo Yan said lightly, and then said no more.

However, the civil and military ministers under the seat either stared at Luo Yan and pondered, or lowered their heads and frowned and muttered to themselves, and so on.

But so far, no one has been able to talk about the sending of troops. Luo Yan felt that his way of showing his strategy through a copy of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was useless, and if he wanted to impress Li Shimin and allow him to go on the expedition with the army, he needed to find another way.

Luo Yan is looking forward to such an opportunity. And the heavens seemed to have heard Luo Yan's prayer, and such an opportunity soon came.

From the beginning of the Weishui Alliance, Li Shimin dispatched elites to perform martial arts in front of the Xiande Palace. After continuous expansion in recent years, a team with considerable combat effectiveness has been formed. Li Shimin would go to the Xiande Hall from time to time to teach riding and archery, although he had experienced the persuasion of many courtiers and even Li Shimin's confidants, he still went his own way.

On this day, Li Shimin, who had nothing to do, took his close ministers to the front of the Xiande Palace.

Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while. Li Shimin's army is absolutely in line with this sentence. Not to mention the large amount of money invested in it, it also took a lot of energy. Now that the Turkic war is about to start, if Li Shimin doesn't come to Haosheng to check the effect, how can he be worthy of his efforts in the past three years.

Don't say anything about reviewing the army is the patent of modern times. In fact, Datang already has a saying that the school field is performing martial arts.

When Li Shimin took Luo Yan and them up the steps of the Xiande Palace, thousands of elite soldiers were already in battle under the command of the captain. It was not strictly based on the general army formation, but was divided into nine phalanxes, arranged in the style of nine palaces.

Dressed in military uniforms, the soldiers of the first three phalanxes held a half-human tall giant shield in their left hand and a horizontal sword in their right hand. The shield was far away, and Luo Yan didn't see its material clearly, but there was a cloud-swallowing tiger head painted on it, which was majestic. The horizontal knife in hand is pointed upwards at this moment to show etiquette. But the light reflected by the sunlight pierced their eyes like steel needles. It seems that behind Luo Yan, there are a few people who rarely see the formation array, and their eyes are slightly narrowed.

In the middle column are archers with longbows at their waists and arrows on their backs.

Although none of them opened their bows and pulled arrows, their eyes were locked on Li Shimin. It was the sharp gaze of these people that made Li Shimin's personal guards get a little closer to each other in front of Li Shimin. They are not as confident as Li Shimin, thinking that these people will not have any ill intentions towards Li Shimin.

Each has its own division, and what the guards do is to use their bodies to block the blade, and at this time, there must be no ambiguity.

As for the last three phalanxes, they are the most imposing.

It is estimated that the last 300 or so people are all elite colonels selected by each guard. They were obviously dressed differently from the soldiers in the six phalanxes in front of them, all of them were dressed in iron armor, and they were all treated like seventh-rank captains. Holding the spear in unison, a little cold light on the tip of the spear converged into a piece, as if there was a murderous aura circulating in it.

The lieutenant in the audience gave an order, but it was deafening with a loud shout. It seems that the entire Taiji Palace trembled twice because of this.

Li Shimin was very satisfied with the appearance in front of him. But that's just the beginning. The lieutenant shouted "change formation", and these nine arrays were only a few blinks of an eye, and they had already fallen. At this moment, standing in front of Li Shimin are those gun-wielding colonels.

shouted again, "The army turns back, the rear army becomes the front army, ready to attack", and in an instant, everyone's bodies turned back, the spear-wielding colonel and the archer half-crouched, and the sword and shield hand in the front obliquely supported the big shield. At this time, the hundreds of grass men erected behind the military formation were revealed. At the same time, the archer in the middle began to quickly open his bow and pull his arrows.

With a "shot", the archers in the front row quickly got up and shot their arrows at the straw men. The arrow was fast, and after almost fifty steps, Luo Yan could still hear the "whoosh" sound produced by the friction with the air.

Before Luo Yan could turn around, there was another "shoot again". The archers of the first column squatted, and the archers of the second column got up to shoot arrows. After nine re-shots, the archer phalanx had only completed one round. And the straw men in front of them are already covered with arrows.

"Enter". With another word, the three classes moved forward together, and as they went, the archers retreated behind the gun-wielding colonels. As he approached the straw man, he crouched down and saw the spear stab through the gap between the shields. After a round passed, I saw that the straw man in the front row had been completely stabbed by the spear.

Although it was only a demonstration on the straw man, Luo Yan also saw clearly that the combat effectiveness of these soldiers was definitely not ordinary.

Li Shimin clapped his hands and applauded loudly, and turned back to ask Luo Yan and said, "Jinzhi, look at this, these soldiers are somewhat sure of the Upper Turks. ”

Pouting, Luo Yan was speechless. With the combat effectiveness of these people, if they encounter the same number of Turkic cavalry, they will properly look for death. However, on the frontal battlefield, when the battle situation is stalemate, such an army emerges on your side, and the certainty of victory is greatly increased. After all, what the Turks can rely on is their bows and arrows and fast horses, and when they really fight, in fact, the Tang Dynasty will not be too bad.

Luo Yan naturally didn't dare to say such things to Li Shimin.

Seeing Luo Yan's silence for a while, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing.

This was followed by a demonstration of a one-man bow horse. This is a point that Li Shimin attaches great importance to, and Li Shimin also knows the advantages of the Turks, so this is also the original intention of the establishment of this army.

Among those archers, there were indeed capable people. On the fixed target, Luo Yan saw that there was at most one nine out of ten, and three were straight hearts. Although the part of mounted archery is worse than this, the least ten people who perform martial arts are also four out of ten. In this day and age, such a hit rate is already quite good.

Slightly smug. After all, this team was cultivated by him under the pressure of everyone, and with such results at this time, how could Li Shimin not be happy.

When this is happy, something has to be done.

As an immediate emperor, Li Shimin has always liked to show off his strength to his courtiers. Of course, this was all done in the absence of Wei Chigong's gang of military generals. He himself has a few pounds and a few taels, and he is still very clear in his heart. The resolute refusal to do anything that the class has an axe to do has also become an important factor for Li Shimin to win over the minister.

And now that I am in a good mood, Wei Chigong's generals are also not there. All the conditions for pretending to be forced have been met, where can Li Shimin let go of such a great opportunity.

"Bring a bow and arrows." Li Shimin shouted, and someone sent his bow and arrow over when he was young.

Turning over the horse, taking the arrow and drawing the bow, a series of skillful movements are done, just as the horse is about to pass the first target. I saw the arrow fly out, and Li Shimin had already controlled the second arrow on the string, and when he passed the second target, he let go again. It's just the blink of an eye, and Li Shimin has already stepped on the last target.

Lifting his horse and throwing his bow and arrows to the guards who came to greet him, Li Shimin walked up the steps and waited for the soldiers to report the results.

"Out of ten, three hit the bull's-eye. Your Majesty Tianwei. ”

In the congratulatory voices of the soldiers, Li Shimin said to Luo Yan with a smile: "How about entering?" Didn't you say some time ago that you were going to go out with the army? If you can do better than me today, I will allow you to go. Li Shimin knew that Luo Yan was very good at horizontal knife kung fu, but he had never seen Luo Yan touch the bow horse. I just remembered that Luo Yan was clamoring to fight the Turks some time ago, so I wanted to use this to completely break Luo Yan's thoughts.

"Is Your Majesty serious?" Luo Yan was suddenly pleasantly surprised.

"Ask the House of Tenants when I speak and don't count."

Nodding, Luo Yan said: "Since this is the case, then forgive the crime of disrespect." "It's not a good thing to do better than the emperor. also met Li Shimin, if you meet Yang Guang, don't look at him smiling at this moment, as long as he does better than him, it will definitely be a dead rhythm.

Luo Yan doesn't know how to bow a horse at this time. But don't forget, Luo Yan has a weapon for cheating.

Others only thought that he was stabilizing his mind, but in fact, Luo Yan closed his eyes at this time, but he was seeking help from the system.

Looking through the things that can be exchanged in the system, Luo Yan finally found two skills, one is "skilled in arching horses", and the other is "no false hair". Needless to say, this case of no missing hair is definitely not a knife stunt. The so-called case is not false, in Luo Yan's view, the arrow is a magic skill against the sky. But wherever the arrow reaches, it will shoot wherever it is stared.

However, this price is really a bit expensive. The bow horse is skilled and only has a million prestige, and this case actually asks for 10 million. With blood dripping from his heart to exchange for two skills, Luo Yan instantly felt that he was short of a hard bow in his hand.

The bow depends on manpower, and it is naturally divided into large and small. The moment Luo Yan opened his eyes, he said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Give me a three-stone bow." "The requirements are not surprising, the three-stone bow is the bow and arrow used by those soldiers just now, and the maximum range is about one hundred and fifty paces, so it is just right to shoot a target a hundred paces away at this time.

He took the stiff bow handed by the soldier, turned over the docile horse, shook the reins, and pulled three arrows from the quiver with his right hand. When the horse crosses the first target, it turns slightly, and the first arrow strikes, then turns back slightly, the second arrow, turns back, and the third shoots.

Such an action had already startled Li Shimin and the soldiers to open their mouths wide. But I could hear the sound of "grabbing" on the target one after another. As soon as the voice fell, Luo Yan also just got off the horse.

Behind him, the soldier's trembling voice sounded: "Ten shots are all hit, and six hit the bull's-eye." ”

The voice was behind, and there was no more sound.
