The horses galloped, raising smoke and dust to cover the sky and the sun, and the snow that fell in Chang'an a few days ago only covered the other direction. The official road in front of Mingde Gate is still as dry as ever, which undoubtedly makes a lot of noise for Li Er's return to Beijing this time. The iron hooves roared, like stepping through the mountains; The smoke and dust soared, vowing to be higher than the blue sky. The horses were like dragons, the elite soldiers were like tigers, galloping all the way from afar, and an iron-blooded killing aura came to the face. This is a heroic teacher who has been trained through a hundred battles, and it is the elite selected by thousands of children in Guanzhong, which is the pride of the old Qin people and the pride of Li Er.

Three thousand Xuanjia, the momentum is earth-shattering, but there are only three thousand people, and the momentum exuded is comparable to that of 50,000 troops, and the mountain collapses and the ground cracks, destroying the enemy's liver and intestines.

"Wind, gale, wind, gale!" How could the descendants of the old Qin people not roar these two voices! There are still three miles away from Chang'an City, and this group of the most elite soldiers of this era let out this neat and deafening roar.

"This is the elite of our Datang! This group of soldiers guarding the city is really far worse than the tiger and wolf soldiers below! Chang He stood beside Li Kuan, looked at the galloping army in the distance, and sighed sincerely!

"General Chang is too modest, these troops defending the city are also the elite of the Tang Dynasty, Kuan Jian thinks that if three thousand people are really selected from them, it will not be much worse than these three thousand Xuanjia!" Li Kuan said very old-fashionedly.

"The second son praised, my soldiers still have a number in my heart, although they are also veterans of a hundred battles, but compared to the Xuanjiawei of His Royal Highness the King of Qin, it is still far behind." Chang He didn't know what to say at this time, and there was still some relationship between him and Li Kuan.

"General Chang, don't be presumptuous, being able to return from a hundred battles shows that you are a good thing!" Li Kuan held Li Li's little hand and talked with Chang He Pan, but he didn't expect Li Li's little Lori to quit: "Second brother, Lizhi can't see it!" ”

Li Kuan then remembered that there was a battlement wall in front of him, that is, the kind of city wall that was concave and convex like a zigzag, although the three of them were standing in the shortest place, but Li Kuan himself could barely see the outside, not to mention the little girl who was a lot shorter than himself.

"I'm sorry! The second brother didn't expect that the second brother was not good! Li Kuan hurriedly apologized, and then said apologetically to Chang He: "General Chang, I don't know if you can move two city bricks to give your little sister a foothold?" ”

"What's so hard about that!" Chang He readily agreed! Turning around and giving an order, two burly soldiers came up with two two-foot square bricks.

After leaning against the city wall, Li Kuan hugged Li Lizhi and patted her little head: "Stand up obediently, don't fall down!" When the time comes, I will cry again! As he spoke, he reached out and scratched her upturned nose.

"Second brother, Li's quality is higher than you!" Little Lori stood on the city bricks, now half a head taller than Li Kuan, and her little head was completely higher than the recessed part of the battlement wall. Looking at the second brother who was shorter than herself, Little Lori was happy: "Lizhi is now taller than the second brother, and Lizhi is now a sister!" ”

"It's not big, it's not small!" Li Kuan couldn't help but slap her little ass twice.

"Second brother is bad! Look at your father! Li Lizhi blushed: The mother concubine said, girls can't let boys touch their butts, the second brother is so bad! Thinking of this, the little girl was even more shy, so she had to turn around and look at the army returning from outside the city.

Seeing Li Lizhi looking intently outside the city, Li Kuan beckoned to Chang He and motioned for the two to come aside to talk. Chang He instructed a soldier to take care of Li Liqing before he and Li Kuan stepped aside.

"I don't know what the prince commands!" Chang He lowered his voice. He saw that Li Kuan deliberately bypassed Li Liqing, thinking that there was something confidential to discuss.

People like Chang He, who are caught between the two big forces, are really not easy to mix. Because he is related to the crown princess and has a secret connection with King Qin, he is caught in the middle, so he walks on thin ice every day, for fear of revealing his feet.

Li Kuan looked at the young general, Chang He was only in his thirties at this time, and he could indeed be called young. According to history, this is Li Er's side, but Li Kuan doesn't know when he took refuge, and now it seems that in the sixth year of this martial arts, this has already turned his heart to the king of Qin.

"If the prince has something to say, I have a lifelong friendship with your grandfather, if it weren't for him this year, I would have died under Liu Heimin's random arrows." Chang He saw that Li Kuan was silent for a long time, and couldn't help but directly tell a secret news.

Only then did Li Kuan react, it turned out that this person who had taken refuge in Li Er still had the credit of his cheap grandfather, but that person had already passed away: "Don't worry, General, Kuan was thinking about something just now, and he asked the general to come here just to borrow something from the general to use." ”

"What does the prince need?"

"One big drum! I wonder if it's convenient for the general? Li Kuan replied. You must know that this is an important figure who cannot be ignored in the incident three years later, if history has been deviated because of this incident, then it is unknown whether Li Kuan's own life can be saved.

"It's easy to do!" Chang He agreed very simply, this is just a trivial matter, and no one will care about such a thing.

"Then thank you, General!" Li Kuan bowed in thanks.

"You don't have to be polite! If it weren't for your grandfather, there would be no Changhe. Chang He was very useful to Li Kuan's behavior.

"Wait a minute, I'll let the soldiers carry a drum!" Chang He said that he went to give the order.

Li Kuan and Chang He talked at this time, Li Er led his Xuanjia to be not far from Chang'an City, and the eldest grandson standing outside the city gate saw the man sitting on a horse from a distance, dressed in bright light armor, with dark clouds and snow under his crotch, people like jade, and horses like dragons. It is her husband Li Shimin, the king of Qin, who has been missing her for most of the past half a year, that is, Li Er. And the man with whom he was handsome and elegant, these were her eldest brothers, the two men who made him the most important in his life. Now they're both back safely. The eldest grandson wiped away the tears in his eyes, revealing a bright smile like a mountain flower, and looked at them stupidly.

Everyone at the gate of the city looked at this army silently, the three thousand Xuanjia were like one person, and the sound of horses' hooves was also uniform. Even the eunuchs in the palace who came to Mingdemen to announce the decree were speechless. Because of the heavy mountain-like evil qi, it is a naturally formed evil qi that struggles out of the line of death again and again, and all the oppressors are speechless.

Of course, there is another person who is not oppressed by this evil spirit, she is sticking out her little head and looking for her brother in the crowd: "That's the big brother, why is he dressed like that?" It's so stupid, Lizhi sneaked through that day, and she couldn't walk in that armor. And that is the green finch, why does it look so silly to smile now, and the mother concubine is so strange, laughing and crying. It's still the best second brother! Little Lori commented secretly, her little head dotting like a chicken eating rice.

"Boom!"

Just as everyone was silent, they were awakened by the sound of a drum.

"Knock, knock."

The drums sounded one after another, and the sound shook people's hearts, and the drums became more and more urgent, such as resisting the storm and rain, and also killing on the battlefield. Every time it hits the node of the heartbeat, every time it knocks on the blood in people's hearts.

People seemed to be in a killing arena, and there seemed to be the mournful roar of war horses and the shouting of robes around them. Jin Ge Iron Horse, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger. The gun is sharp, and he vows to return the rivers and mountains to a clear place.

The drums are roaring, shouting, venting. Just like the rain through the forest, or like the waves crashing on the shore, people listened to it as if they were fascinated, and a picture of the general's hundred battles unfolded in front of them, thinking that the young general was stepping off the horse and shooting in his hand, vowing to make the sea calm and the mountains and rivers strong. In addition to the anti-thief, the outside of the royal Rong Di, a hundred battles, people still have no regrets.

Among all of them, there is another person who is the most emotional, and this person is the protagonist who returned today - Li Er, the king of Qin. The beating of this blood-boiling drum made his heart flutter, because this song did what he wanted, and this song said what he had in his dreams. At this moment he felt very satisfied, because someone understood him, someone understood his ambition, someone knew what he wanted in life!

Everyone was immersed in this drum beat, unable to extricate themselves for a long time, especially the Xuanjia Army, countless battles have been integrated into the flesh and blood of these iron-blooded men, in the bone marrow, this proud drum beat reminded them of the past battles, remembered the robes of those horse leather shrouds, and remembered the years when the sky was full of sound. For the sake of the broken mountains and rivers, for the countless innocent people behind them, they have no regrets, but they will be tired. Although they have bodies cast of steel, and can laugh at the pride of life and death, their hearts have been tense until death comes or completely collapses. In this drumbeat, they found a harbor where their souls could rest.

Countless people were intoxicated by the drumbeat of this divine comedy, and they were all people who had experienced war and had seen the blood of a country break through mountains and rivers. They understand the passion and pride in the hearts of men, and they know the determination and concept of being willing to bring peace to all generations. So they get intoxicated, even if it's just for a moment.

But the little Lori standing at the head of the city was unbalanced: Second Brother Xiang, Second Brother Stinky, ran to beat the drum by herself, but she didn't call it Lizhi, hum!

Li Li's little Lori looked at the two city bricks under her feet: It's so high! I'm so scared! The little girl stretched out her little hand and patted her chest. You must know that this city brick is used to build the city wall, it is a bit like the stone used in later generations, each piece is almost a foot (one foot in the Tang Dynasty, equivalent to a little more than 30 centimeters now), and two pieces are also 60 centimeters high, such a height for a five-year-old (imaginary year) girl, it is really a height that discourages her.

Li Kuan was a little dissatisfied in his heart, because in his memory, this song should be better, but he only remembered approximately, and the rest was really just beaten blindly according to the rhythm. Fortunately, this song is still a classic, not the song itself, but a song adapted from this ancient song that Li Kuan likes very much, so the second half follows the rhythm of his own roar in KTV.

Li Kuan was beating the drum while humming in his mouth: "Let Haitian gather energy for me and open up the world......"

That's right, it's "Men Should Be Self-Improvement", but now it's the ancient song "General Order"!
