"Ha, ha, ha!"

In the early morning, Zhao Ziliang was sweating bare-chested in the courtyard of the embassy hall practicing the lance method, practicing while shouting, this is something that cannot be shaken every morning, even on the march, practicing for an hour every morning, rain or shine. If he has enough time during the day or night, he will also train in strength, agility, mounted archery and mounted combat, in short, he will not let himself be idle, he is afraid that he will think of Panzhu Junxiu when he is idle.

The time was almost up, Zhao Ziliang stopped after practicing the lance method for the last time, panted, took the top horse lance given to him by Fumeng Lingcha, and thought about it in his heart: "My maximum strength has grown to 1,200 catties, this horse lance makes it okay for ordinary generals to play, I make it too light, according to my current strength and endurance, I can use a horse lance that weighs up to eighty catties, but how can the weight of the ordinary horse lance reach eighty catties?" The best thing to do is to increase the weight of the lance and replace it with a pure steel lever to get the weight I need and keep the toughness of the lance! ”

Thinking of this, Zhao Ziliang's mind immediately flashed the appearance of Fang Tian's halberd, he was very clear about his situation, he was a strength-type general, but what he practiced was a skillful horse combat martial art - lance method, if you want to combine the two and give full play to the maximum combat effectiveness, the weapons used seem to be only possible with the three-pointed two-edged knife and Fang Tian's halberd, so can you use Fang Tian's halberd to cast the lance method? However, there are several attack methods of Fang Tian's halberd that are not available in the lance method, so the attack moves of the lance method must be modified somewhat. But this is not something that can be done in a short period of time.

Just as Chu Ge came over, he saw Zhao Ziliang standing there with a horse lance and bowing his head in contemplation, so he stepped forward and asked, "General, what's wrong?" ”

Zhao Ziliang shook the horse lance in his hand and said: "This horse lance is too light for me, my strength is still increasing, with my current strength, under the condition of maintaining the maximum attack speed and durability, I can use a horse lance weighing up to one hundred and twenty catties, but how can the weight of the horse lance reach one hundred and twenty catties?" I'm wondering if to replace the weapon with a Fang Tian painting halberd or a three-pointed two-edged knife, but the lance method I use was specially created for horse lances, and it is not necessarily suitable for Fang Tian's painting halberd and three-pointed two-edged knives. ”

Chu Ge listened to Zhao Ziliang's words, thought about it, and suddenly patted his head and said, "General, I remembered, there is a way to solve the general's troubles!" ”

"Oh? Let's talk about it! ”

Chu Ge said: "I don't know if the general has heard of Shan Xiongxin?" ”

"Shan Xiongxin?" Zhao Ziliang was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, wasn't this person the fierce general of Wagangzhai at the end of the Sui Dynasty? This man later surrendered to Wang Shichong, and after Wang Shichong was defeated by Li Shimin, Shan Xiongxin was captured and later killed.

He nodded and said, "I know, this person is a fierce general in Wagangzhai, and he is good friends with the British Duke Li Ji!" Later, this person surrendered to Wang Shichong, but Li Ji defected to our dynasty, after Wang Shichong was defeated by Emperor Taizong, Shan Xiongxin was also captured, he refused to surrender, and was beheaded."

Chu Ge nodded and said, "Yes, it's not a secret, the subordinate grandfather is Shan Xiongxin's general!" According to my grandfather, Shan Xiongxin was good at using horse lances, but his horse lances were different from ordinary horse lances, and his weapons had a unique name called 'Golden Nail Zaoyang Lance', which weighed one hundred and twenty catties. This is mainly because he is brave and powerful, and the ordinary horse lance is too light, so he added a round iron hammer like a jujube to the head of the lance, which is densely covered with six rows of iron and three nails, like a mace, and a prismatic iron iron at the end of the handle. In this way, it not only increases the weight of the horse lance, but also can use it to smash people, but I know that although Shan Xiongxin is brave and brave, his strength is definitely not as great as that of the general, so if the general uses the golden nail jujube yang lance, he will definitely be handy! ”

Zhao Ziliang stuck the horse lance on the ground, and immediately clapped the board and said: "Okay, I'll try it with the golden nail jujube yang lance, you go to the street to find out if there is a blacksmith shop, and give me a one hundred and twenty pounds of gold nail jujube yang lance."

"No!"

As soon as Chu Ge agreed, he saw Chen Qingying, who was rescued by Zhao Ziliang yesterday, walking over with her head down and walking in small steps, and said softly: "The slave family has cooked some corn porridge, and the general can have breakfast!" ”

Zhao Ziliang frowned when he heard this, looked at Chu Ge and said, "It's not that we didn't bring our husband Mrs. Wang to be a guest, how can she cook food?" ”

Chen Qingying hurriedly said: "It's the slave family who wants to do it themselves, it has nothing to do with General Chu, the slave family thinks that my mother and daughter were saved by the general, and now not only can I not repay the general, how can I follow the general to eat and live in vain?" So the slave family should do what they can! ”

Zhao Ziliang sighed: "Our soldiers failed to guard the frontier well, let the northern Turks go south to plunder, and caused good people like Madam to suffer, Ziliang is really ashamed!" Now that I have met Mrs. and Mother and daughter here, it is naturally my duty to save Mrs. Mother and Daughter, Mrs. does not have to be like this, this is what I should do! ”

When Chen Qingying heard Zhao Ziliang talk about this, she suddenly thought of her husband and the countless innocent people in the border city who were killed by the Turks, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.

Seeing this, Zhao Ziliang hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, madam!" Ziliang shouldn't mention Madame's sadness, Madame should go first, Ziliang will come as soon as he washes up! ”

"No!" Chen Qingying slowly retreated with tears in her eyes.

Chu Ge saw that Zhao Ziliang was a little distracted when he looked at Chen Qingying's back, and said tentatively: "Yesterday, I saw that this Mrs. Wang looked haggard and ragged, but I didn't expect that after grooming today, she was quite a bit of a look, and her figure was quite attractive, but she was a little older, if the general liked it, it would not be a big deal, but in terms of age, her subordinates thought that her daughter Miss Zhiyun was a good match for the general."

Hearing this, Zhao Ziliang turned his head to look at Chu Ge, and couldn't help but laugh and scold: "I said what are you thinking about all day long?" Is General Ben the kind of person who wants to go up when he sees a woman? Okay, okay, you go and get busy, before we leave to open up the city, we will build the golden nail jujube yang lance I need, so that the blacksmith must use good materials, especially the lance, must be made of stainless steel to have toughness! ”

"No!"

After breakfast, Zhao Ziliang asked Chu Ge to find a blacksmith to build a 120-pound golden nail jujube lance according to his own plan, and then stayed in the camp outside the city with more than 200 cavalry to continue cavalry tactical training, and he took Brehan and more than 20 servants to explore the terrain around Tuozhi City in the name of hunting outside the city.

The residence of Qu Le, the little prince of Shiguo.

Qu Le had just come back from the martial arts arena when he saw a subordinate come to report: "Your Royal Highness the Little Prince, you asked the villain to stare at the Tang Dynasty envoy and his party yesterday, and the villain and a few brothers have been staring, and they don't dare to slack off!" Just now, the villain found out that the Tang envoy had gone out of the city to hunt with more than 20 soldiers."

Quler wondered, "Hunting? You read that right".

"No, they do hunt in the mountains and forests outside the city!"

Qu Le remembered that Zhao Ziliang threatened him with diplomacy yesterday and snatched the two women, and his heart was on fire. He snorted coldly and said: "That Zhao Ziliang is really hateful, today this prince must humiliate him to relieve the hatred in this prince's heart, you go to find some people to bring bows and arrows and weapons to go out of the city with this prince!" ”

"Yes, little prince, the villain will go immediately!"

Where Zhao Ziliang really hunted, he was investigating the terrain around Tuozhi City in the name of hunting, but he didn't expect Qu Le to follow with more than a dozen guards.

"General Zhao, why don't you call Prince Shangben when you go out of the city to hunt? General Zhao is a guest, how can I say that this prince should also be entertained wholeheartedly! Qulerze's horse caught up and shouted.

Zhao Ziliang immediately smiled and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince needs to help King Moheji Tutun deal with state affairs, and he is busy with official business, how can he disturb His Royal Highness the Prince?" So I came out with a few servants."

Qu Le said: "General Zhao doesn't have to be polite, since this prince is out, accompany General Zhao to hunt!" General Zhao, why don't we have a hunting competition? Look at who hunts the most people, if this prince is lucky to win, General Zhao will give the two women yesterday to this prince, if General Zhao wins, this prince will persuade my father to send 10,000 troops to deal with the Turgish Shitu Khan in the line of fire, how about it? ”

It turned out to be for Chen Qingying's mother and daughter! Zhao Ziliang thought to himself, it seems that this Qu Le is really not giving up, and he even used to persuade Mo Heji Tutun to send troops to attack Tuqi Shi as a bargaining chip!

Brehan rode his horse and whispered to Zhao Ziliang: "General, the villain asked someone yesterday, although this little prince of the Stone Country, Qu Le, is only a teenager, he is infinitely powerful, strong in martial arts, and is deeply favored by the King of the Stone Kingdom, and he commands one-third of the soldiers and horses of the Stone Kingdom!" ”

Zhao Ziliang looked at the arrogant Qu Le, with a burst of contempt in his heart, he held great power, but for the sake of two women, he used national affairs as bargaining chips to make transactions, although such a person is infinitely powerful and strong in martial arts, he is afraid that in the end, he will not be productive, no wonder the Tang Dynasty later canonized his elder brother Na Juche Nose Shi as the king of Huaihua, but did not seal him. In that case, how about playing this game with him?

Zhao Ziliang thought of this, and immediately said: "Okay, since His Royal Highness Prince Qu Le has such a Yaxing, then the envoy will accompany him to the end!" ”

The two immediately led people into the mountains and forests, but they did not separate, Qu Le followed Zhao Ziliang's side closely, once a beast appeared, he immediately opened his bow and shot arrows, even if he couldn't shoot, he scared the beast away and didn't let Zhao Ziliang shoot.

When he learned of Qu Le's intentions, Zhao Ziliang immediately changed his tactics. To say that than the speed of archery, he is definitely not afraid of anyone, you must know that since he began to practice riding archery, he has to shoot a thousand arrows every day, with the accumulation of time, the speed of his archery has increased rapidly, and the accuracy has been greatly improved, the more arrows, the more interference with natural factors, the body will instinctively judge the impact of natural factors on accuracy and make adjustments.

"Whoosh"

When a goat appeared, Zhao Ziliang pulled out an arrow as fast as he could, and the arrow shot extremely accurately, penetrating the goat's neck, and the goat fell to the ground without running a few steps, but the arrow shot by Qu Le also hit the goat, but it was Zhao Ziliang who shot first.

Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "Prince Qu Le, this time I shot first!" ”

"You!" Qu Le glared at Zhao Ziliang fiercely, and snorted: "You are lucky this time, next time ······ Hum! ”
