Jingkou, also known as South Xuzhou, this day is the July of the tenth year of the emperor, the Yangtze River outside the city of Jingkou, the Sui army camp five miles north of the Yangzijin Guazhou ferry, stretches for more than 20 miles, more than 80,000 conquest troops have set up a huge formation, the gongs and drums in the camp are noisy, people shout and neigh, a scene in full swing.

Wang Huaqiang, wearing a cooked copper helmet, chain mail, and a black robe, was standing in the generalissimo tent of Yang Su, the Duke of Yue, and was in the last position.

Sitting behind the handsome case, it was the commander of this expedition to the south to quell the rebellion, Yang Su, the Duke of Yueguo, since he led 30,000 troops from Guangling in March, he did not rush south to cross the river and fight with all kinds of rebels, but has been stationed in the camp outside Guangling City, on the one hand, to ensure the safety of Jiankang City from the flank, and on the other hand, to receive reinforcements from all walks of life from Jiangbei.

Wang Huaqiang since that day outside Daxing City and Gao Xi after a farewell, he came directly to the Yang Su camp that was still in the north of Guangling City, he knew that Gao Xi's intention was not to let him go home to arrange business matters, since he had clearly warned himself by dismissing the official, at this time to show his selfishness, it was purely looking for death, so Wang Huaqiang was very honest this time, did not move a little other ideas, just wrote to tell the third brother that the Bliss Villa was temporarily suspended.

After Yang Su received Wang Huaqiang's letter of recommendation, he asked him to join the army as a soldier, and entered the commander's tent every five days to discuss matters, and was responsible for military logistics in peacetime. He made up his mind, this time he would mix ordinary military exploits peacefully, and after returning to Daxing, he would just mix with an eight- or nine-grade official.

Yang Su is nearly fifty, with an eagle nose and deep eyes, a magnificent appearance, a face full of vicissitudes, and three locks of long beards floating without wind. Even if he was more than ten meters away, Wang Huaqiang could feel the majestic and powerful aura on his body, dressed neatly, wearing a generalissimo's golden helmet, wearing a tiger's head swallowing cloud armor, and a red general's robe.

I only heard Yang Su's voice not too high, and he didn't speak fast, but there was an invisible majesty in his deep and powerful words: "General Shi, are you ready to stop the 20,000 people in your department for three months?" ”

A general about forty years old, with a black face and a beard, a body like an iron tower, eyes like electricity, and a general with armor on his head, is the general of Shangkaifu, Jingzhao (Daxing) Duling Shi Long live, he came out of class and said loudly: "If you go back to the marshal, the last general's department has been ready for five months' military supplies, and you can set off at any time." ”

Yang Su nodded with satisfaction, and turned his head to look to the right: "General, most of your subordinates are newly recruited Huainan soldiers, how are they trained?" ”

Another general in his thirties, with a red face and a hooked beard, and a powerful general stood out from the right column, it was the general of Shangkaifu who came to protect his son, and he also replied with a full military salute: "Qiqi Yang Dashuai, 15,000 Huainan recruits, have been training under the last general for three months, and the last general does not boast about Haikou casually, but still dares to say in this military tent that I, 15,000 people, can fight at least 50,000 people when I go to the battlefield against those Chen soldiers." ”

Yang Su smiled slightly: "Come to the general, it's hard work, you have been practicing day and night recently, sharing weal and woe with the soldiers, and the commander has also heard of it, and he will definitely let your troops fight as a vanguard when he goes on a big expedition in the coming day." ”

Laihu'er's face was colorful, and he bowed and retreated.

Wang Huaqiang is very familiar with these two generals recently, although in their eyes, they may not have such a quartermaster standing at the end, but these two are indeed generals with real talent and real learning, who are well versed in the art of war, proficient in military training, and over time, they are all great commanders who can take charge of themselves.

Shi Wansui's father, Shi Jing, was a general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and served as the assassin of Cangzhou. This Shi Wansui can also be said to be a child of a medium-sized family, he has been familiar with military books since he was a child, has practiced martial arts, likes to ride horses and shoot arrows, has strong skills, and his eyes are like eagle falcons, and he is a natural general.

When the Western Wei Dynasty and the Eastern Wei Dynasty fought in Luoyang, the fifteen-year-old Shi Wansui went out with his father, and he had not yet fought, but he only saw the ranks of his Western Wei side when they lined up, and then looked at the opponent's formation, so he said to Shi Jing that this battle would be lost.

General Shi Jing suspiciously ordered the left and right to change into civilian clothes and quickly evacuate the battlefield, and the result was a crushing defeat for the Western Wei army. Afterwards, Shi Jing was amazed by Shi Wansui's observation of the battlefield and his judgment of the victory or defeat of the two armies, and began to attach great importance to this son.

Later, the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty fought a series of battles, Shi Jing died in battle, and Shi Wansui attacked his father as the son of a loyal minister Taiping County Duke, and was also worshiped as the Kaifu Yitong Sansi, and officially became a military general, but Shi Wansui at this time still has no fame.

When the rebellion of Wei Chi Hui, Shi Wansui officially appeared, acting under the general Liang Shiyan, once there was a team of geese flying in the sky, Shi Wansui asked Liang Shiyan to shoot the third of the wild geese in this team, and as a result, Zhang Gong took an arrow, and shot down the goose with an arrow, and the generals in the army were all impressed when they saw this, and Shi Wansui's name began to spread rapidly throughout the army.

When it was time for the decisive battle with Yu Chi Hui outside the city, at the most critical moment of the battle, Wei Chi Hui disregarded his old age, personally put on his armor and took the lead in the assault.

The Zhou army could not withstand the powerful offensive of the rebels and began to retreat, and at the most critical time, Shi Wansui stepped forward and shouted to Liang Shiyan: "The matter is urgent, I will break the thief!" ”

So Shi Wansui single-handedly counterattacked the enemy army, killing dozens of enemy pioneers in a row, slightly stopping the enemy's offensive and giving the Zhou army time to regroup.

In the end, relying on Gao Gong's command, he first shot at the people of Yecheng who were watching the battle at the head of the city, causing these people to cry and chaos, shaking the morale of the rebels, and then taking the opportunity to counterattack, and finally won a complete victory.

After the war, Shi Wansui ranked first in meritorious deeds, and worshiped as a general.

It's a pity that Fu Wushuang arrived, and soon Shi Wansui was implicated in Erzhuji's rebellion, was cut to the people, and was sent to Dunhuang (Guazhou) as a border soldier.

Liu Fang, the defender of Dunhuang, was a warrior who often single-handedly penetrated deep into the Turks, robbed them of their cattle and sheep and returned, and the Turks could not resist and could only let them come and go. This person has never been waiting to see Shi Wansui, and often mocks him to his face and insults him.

At first, Shi Wansui only wanted to serve this sentence in a low-key manner, but he couldn't stand the repeated insults of this person, so he asked him to give him a set of bows and arrows, and got on his horse to perform galloping kung fu to him.

As soon as the connoisseur made a move, he knew if there was any, Liu Fang was impressed when he saw Shi Wansui's kung fu, and since then he has changed his attitude towards Shi Wansui, and often joins forces with Shi Wansui to go deep into the Turkic territory for hundreds of miles, shocking the Turks.

Later, in the third year of the emperor's counterattack against the Turks, Shi Wansui was recruited and transferred to the subordinates of the general Dou Rongding, and met with the number one fierce general under the account of Sha Bolu Khan, Apo Khan, in Gaoyue Yuan (northwest of today's Minqin, Gansu).

In the face of another great drought, both armies were short of water, and even the Sui army finally reached the point of stabbing horses and drinking blood, and the situation of the Turkic army was not much better, but both sides were afraid of fighting wolves, and they did not dare to take the initiative to withdraw in front of the enemy.

In this case, the two sides negotiated, saying that the two armies were facing each other, and many were killed and wounded, so what was the crime of the soldiers? It's better to have a warrior on each side and decide the winner by heads-up.

So Apo Khan sent one of the most brave cavalry generals, and the Sui army sent Shi Wansui, the two duel in front of the battle, first shooting arrows at each other, and then hand-to-hand combat, and finally Shi Wansui beheaded him and returned, the Turkic army was angry, so Apo Khan and Dou Rong swore an oath before the army, leading the army to flee away, no longer committing borders.

In this battle, Shi Wansui became famous in one fell swoop, and his outstanding archery skills and superb martial arts became a legend not only in the Sui army, but also among the Turks.

Later, Shi Wansui worshiped Yitong and led the general for his military exploits in this battle. In the Sui Dynasty's campaign to destroy Chen, Shi Wansui also participated in the battle, and with the accumulation of merit under Yang Su and the opening of the mansion, his official position gradually increased, and his prestige became famous again.

Wang Huaqiang first heard Shi Wansui's deeds when he was drinking and bragging with other colleagues, and he sighed in his heart at that time, this person can be regarded as a few ups and downs, from a general to a small soldier, and then from a small soldier to a general, as long as he has real talent and learning, he still let him wait until the day of his beginning.
