Chapter 208: Teaching His Wife to Shoot Arrows
After Zhu Cang knew about that, he was immediately angry, and then simply called himself Emperor Chu in Champion County, changed the name of the year to Changda, and then led the army to attack Dengzhou in the Tang Dynasty, wanting to seize this place as the foundation and dominate the land of Shannan.
After Lu Zizhang surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, Chang He comforted Ma Yuangui to attack Zhu Cang, and he was able to defeat him every time.
During the last defeat of Zhu Cang, Lu Zizang suggested to Ma Yuangui: "Zhu Cang has just lost the battle, and the army is cowardly from top to bottom, I ask and comfort the envoy to attack him, and I can destroy him at once." If we delay any longer, when Zhu Cang's troops gradually converge, increase in strength and run out of food, they will fight to the death with us, and it will become a great disaster. ”
Ma Yuangui did not listen to Lu Zizang's advice, and Lu Zizhang asked his own troops to attack Zhu Cang, and Ma Yuangui did not agree.
Ma Yuangui didn't want to wipe out Zhu Cang all at once, Zhu Cang's army just relied on the name of cannibalism to make people frightened, so it was across Shannan and Bashu, the combat effectiveness of the army was actually not strong, as long as the obstacles in his heart were overcome, it was not difficult to defeat him, and Zhu Cang's name was very loud, so every time he was defeated, Ma Yuangui could gain a lot of fame and prestige, and he would be added to the ranks.
It can be said that Zhu Cang is like a gift from God to Ma Yuangui, which is the best stepping stone for him to advance, which is why he rejected Lu Zizang's request.
This time Zhu Cang attacked Dengzhou, because after being called the emperor, he cheered up the army by rewarding his subordinates lavishly, so the army was greatly boosted, defeated the Tang army several times, and it was best to besiege Nanyang City, Lu Zizhang persuaded Ma Yuangui to ask Chang'an for help, but Ma Yuangui said that he would be able to defeat Zhu Cang and refused to ask for help.
However, at this time, the weather suddenly heated up abnormally, the snow melted, and the river near Nanyang City swelled, washing away the city wall, and Zhu Cang's army was able to easily enter Nanyang City.
Seeing that the rebellion was coming, Lu Zizang beat his chest and said to Ma Yuangui: "Because of your careful thoughts, I will kill the old man today!" ”
Some cronies persuaded Lu Zizang to surrender, and Lu Zizang shook his head and said: "How can there be a minister of the Son of Heaven who surrenders to the robbers?" After the death of Lu Zizang, Ma Yuangui burned the assassination of Shifu and was buried in the sea of fire, and Nanyang City also fell completely not long after that.
When the news of the fall of Nanyang City, the assassination of Shi Lu Zizang and the consolation of Ma Yuangui's death reached Chang'an, Chang'an City was in an uproar, and Li Yuan was even more distressed by the death of Lu and Ma, and issued an edict to worship Li Shimin, the king of Qin, as the general of the expedition to the south, so that after the New Year, he immediately sent troops to attack Zhu Cang and recover the territory of the Tang Dynasty in Shannan.
Although there are still more than ten days before the Chinese New Year, after Li Shimin received the edict, he immediately began to attack Shannan, sending people and horses to investigate all kinds of intelligence, in order to prepare for the capture after the year, he has sworn that he will revive the momentum of his Qin palace through this battle!
……
On December 20, the sky finally cleared after several days of heavy snowfall, and people who had been in their houses for a long time were finally able to get out of their houses and move their bodies.
On the school field of the Jin Wangfu, Li Yin rode on the yellow horse, running quickly around the target on the school field, and after a while, he suddenly took an arrow and bent the bow, "Whoosh!" Three arrows were fired at the target, the first of which hit the bull's-eye, and the other two were near the bull's-eye.
"Husband is amazing!" Guanyin, who was watching from the sidelines, clapped her little hands and praised loudly.
Li Yin slowly slowed down the speed of the horse, and after coming to the vicinity of Guanyin, he turned over and dismounted, "You just suffered from the cold the day before yesterday, so you couldn't stay in the house well, why did you run out again?" Li Yin covered Guanyin's hand and said to her in a reproachful tone, but the concern in it was already beyond words.
Guanyin said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, I am much better, and I brought you the soup stewed to remove the cold." Guanyin said, taking a food box from the maid's hand.
Li Yin and Guanyin walked to the side of the school grounds, found a place for the maid to lay a thick blanket, and sat down.
After Guanyin opened the food box, a fragrance suddenly overflowed, and she immediately filled a bowl of soup for Li Yin and handed it to Li Yin.
After Li Yin took a few sips, he smacked his mouth, and after seeing Guanyin looking at him expectantly, he smiled and said, "It's delicious, where is the reason why the soup stewed by Ah Wan is not delicious?" ”
After hearing this, Guanyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and thought in her heart that her painstaking efforts to make soup had finally been in vain.
"Auntie, in the future, the rough work of boiling soup will be handed over to the people in the back kitchen of the palace to do, don't tire yourself." After Li Yin drank the soup in the bowl, he said casually to Guanyin.
Guanyin said with a grin: "It's okay, it's not hard, my husband likes to drink, I like to stew it for you,"
After Li Yin heard this, he reached out and touched Guanyin's head, and didn't say anything else, Guanyin leaned on his shoulder, and the two of them quietly looked at the snow around them.
After a long while, Guanyin looked at the archers on the school ground, and said thoughtfully: "Husband, I heard that although the third sister is a woman, she is also skilled in archers and horses, is this true?" ”
Li Yin was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and instead of answering Guanyin's question, he asked her with a smile: "You also want to learn archery?" I'll teach you. ”
After Guanyin heard Li Yin's proposal, she readily agreed.
During the Sui and Tang dynasties, under the influence of Hu Feng, women's horseback archery was not a shocking thing, and there were many heroic deeds related to women in the world.
A recent such a feat, it has something to do with Li Yin.
At the beginning, the powerful leader of the Longyou Qiang tribe led the tribe to join Xue Ju, and when Xue Rengao was defeated, the side Qidi came to the Tang Dynasty and stayed in Chang'an.
But after that, he felt unhappy in Chang'an, and led thousands of his subordinates to rebel, entered Nanshan, went out of Hanchuan, burned and looted everywhere he passed, and was finally defeated by the general Pang Yu and fled to Shizhou.
After arriving in Shizhou, the side of the enterprise also robbed a woman surnamed Wang, drunk with him, and then lay in the field, but Wang was only a fake crime, he took advantage of the side of the enterprise to be drunk and unconscious, pulled out the saber of the side of the enterprise, cut off the head of the side of the enterprise and sent it to Liangzhou, and the subordinates of the side of the enterprise were scattered.
In recognition of Wang's merits, Li Yuan issued an edict to give Wang the honorific title of Mrs. Chongyi, and asked Wang if he had any requests, although he proposed them.
However, the things that Wang proposed were very surprising, and she couldn't laugh or cry, and the things she mentioned to Li Yuan were to hope to spend a good night with Li Yin, the king of Jin.
This bold and bizarre proposal was rejected by Li Yuan, but the woman's openness at that time can be understood from this incident.
