Seeing the eldest grandson Shunde retreat, Tan Zong was quite unconvinced and said to Li Chongjiu: "Senior brother, that person is so arrogant, why did he spare his life." ā
Li Chongjiu put down the bow under his hand and said: "If the official army attacks the mountain, we will not be able to defend it. But it's better to do a good job and let them know how good we are. ā
Li Chongjiu glanced at it, and the Xuanjia elite of the Li family under the mountain rode it.
This time, there were more than 100 cavalry organized by Li Jiaqu's department, including light cavalry and armored cavalry. This armored cavalry (Note 1) has a small number of people, but it is dressed in bright light armor and horse cloak, and with those bows of one and a half stones or about two stones in the hands of his subordinates, dozens of paces away, they cannot penetrate the armor of men and horses.
Only a three-stone strong bow, or a hard crossbow, can pose a certain threat to armored cavalry.
Therefore, such a well-equipped regular official army is not something that Li Chongjiu's Shaolin soldiers with Qimei sticks can resist for the time being, and it is not that they lost to Li Jiaqu's department, but that they are not as well equipped.
However, if the Li family really wants to storm the hills, Li Chongjiu can only take out the star picking and the moon two bows to meet the enemy, you must know that the star picking bow is a five-stone strong bow, which is enough to be a hundred steps away, and even people and horses can be penetrated together!
And the Moonsnatcher Bow ............
If the Li family really wants to do it, Li Chongjiu would like to see the achievements of his studies in Shaomuro Mountain in the past three years.
Thinking of this, Li Chongjiu put down the three-stone bow under his hand, turned to the rucksack wrapped in layers, and took out the star-picking bow.
At this time, under the hillside, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, Li Chongjiu clenched the star-picking bow in his hand, and turned his eyes to see a man about the same age as himself, driving up the mountain alone.
Li Chongjiu was surprised, what did the other party do when he went up the mountain alone? Is it here to persuade him to surrender?
At this time, the man dropped the saber to show that he had no malice, but Li Chongjiu clearly saw that the opponent's bow and arrow were still hanging on the saddle. At this time, the other party came to the vicinity of fifty steps to restrain the horse, arched his hand on the horse's back, and said loudly: "Dare to ask Brother Li on the other side?" ā
Li Chongjiu glanced at the other party, and said in his heart that he didn't know this person, but he still hugged his fists and said: "Under Li Chongjiu, please forgive me for being clumsy, brother?" ā
When the other party heard Li Chongjiu say this, he immediately raised his whip and said with a smile: "If you really didn't find a mistake, under Li Shimin, he hasn't taken the word yet, but he is the son of Tang Guogong!" ā
The moment he heard the other party report his home, Li Chongjiu couldn't help but feel shocked from the bottom of his heart, and the eight big characters of Qin Emperor and Han Wu, Tang Sect and Song Ancestor suddenly popped up in his mind.
Li Chongjiu looked at the other party again, it was also strange, when this person went up the mountain, he felt that the other party was just an ordinary man, and there was nothing peculiar.
Now listening to the other party's self-reported name, Li Chongjiu can't help but feel that the man in front of him is becoming more and more different.
This future day khan, just the hero is young, in his prime, dazzling young, but the current appearance of this straddle mount, I can't help but think of this person on the horse in the future, swept the desert, struck three thousand miles, swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger, and created the majestic posture of the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty.
Going on the horse to level the world, getting off the horse to rule the world, is exactly what later generations said about this young man.
"It turned out to be Li Erlangjun, look up to him for a long time!"
Li Chongjiu said that this long-term admiration is not polite, but it has been admired for more than a thousand years. And this Li Erlangjun is even more precious, I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to call it that in the future.
Li Shimin looked at Li Chongjiu at the moment, and couldn't help but think of his third sister, Li Zhiwan slapped her little eyes above the top, never praised people, except for her eldest brother and second brother, she never looked at other young men in her eyes, but praised this Li Chongjiu.
Li Shimin couldn't help but be curious, when he wanted to see this young peer, what kind of characters deserved Li Zhiwan's praise so much.
When he first heard that this person was a killer officer, Li Shimin thought it was Jing Ke, a heroic man like Qin Wuyang.
Before meeting today, the other party shot down the helmet of Changsun Shunde from fifty steps away, which was already the first to catch people, and after meeting, Li Shimin saw his bearing, and secretly praised in his heart, this person is gentle and elegant, not like a martial artist at all.
This son is by no means a thing in the pool, and Li Shimin made the same judgment as Li Zhiwan at the moment.
However, the same man, when he sees a heroic person who is almost the same age as himself, he will inevitably feel a little jealous.
But Li Shimin didn't have such a negative feeling at all, but the more he saw it, the more he liked it, and said with a smile: "I heard the third sister say that when you talked about me, you talked about Shangyi Renxia and Corporal Qu Jie, I liked these words very much, so I felt that Brother Li was a friend worth making, so I came to see him!" ā
Li Chongjiu listened to Li Shimin, smiled and said: "Thanks to the praise of the third lady, I don't know if the third lady is okay at the moment." ā
Li Shimin couldn't help but smile secretly when he heard Li Chongjiu say this, and said in his heart that this person was really worried about the third sister, so as soon as they met, he asked her for news, but I'm afraid he will be disappointed.
Li Shimin smiled reluctantly and said: "Brother Li has a heart, the third sister is fine, and I will convey Brother Li's greetings to her when I go back." ā
While speaking, Li Shimin's face suddenly sank, and he said: "It's time to reminisce about the past." Brother Li was kind to my uncle's subordinates, which should have been your affection, but now that the two armies are fighting, they can't think of their personal feelings, so they let your subordinates go down the mountain. ā
Li Chongjiu was still smiling when he heard Li Shimin, but now he suddenly became ruthless, and couldn't help but slander, how can the two brothers and sisters of the Li family have this stinky virtue of turning their faces and not recognizing people.
At present, under the slope of the mountain, the flag of the Li family has been erected high, and hundreds of officers and soldiers have gathered to cut off Li Chongjiu's way down the mountain. If Li Chongjiu breaks through, there will be a battle to the death, even if he breaks through, on the plain, in the face of the pursuit of the cavalry, he will definitely be unlucky. Li Chongjiu looked at it, and the white-bearded old man wearing Mingguang armor under the banner thought to be the legendary Tang Guogong Li Yuan, who had three breasts. Li Yuanzheng pinched his long beard with his hands in his hand, looking at the situation on the mountain with a leisurely look.
Li Chongjiu held the longbow in his hand, was bold, and said loudly: "The husband should let go of his hands and feet, why bother, he is willing to accompany him to the end, and he will be happy in the first battle!"
Li Shimin heard Li Chongjiu say this, and immediately showed appreciation, and said: "Brother Li is really a guts, I don't want the two sides to meet each other, I mention that I and Brother Li, make a fair competition, to determine the victory, if I lose, let Brother Li go down the mountain, if Brother Li is defeated, then please bow your head and capture, I promise not to hurt Brother Li's life?" ā
Li Chongjiu laughed when he heard this, and said: "Li Er is really good at mentioning yƬ, I don't know what it is like?" ā
Li Shimin thought for a while and said: "Since you are a big husband, you should immediately look for fame, you and I will test the ability of the emperor's family, and we will use bows and horses to ride and shoot, how about the superior?" ā
Li Chongjiu knew that after Li Shimin saw his archery skills, he still had to compete with himself in archery, and he was obviously very confident in his riding and archery.
"It's a deal!"
Li Chongjiu and Li Shimin laughed in unison.
After Li Shimin finished laughing, he waved his hand, pointed to the big tree on the side, and said, "Take this tree as a target." With that, Li Shimin clamped the war horse between his legs, urged the mount under his crotch, and went straight to the big tree.
Note 1: The armored cavalry was a local heavy cavalry, which was popular in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but gradually withdrew from the army during the Tang Dynasty. By the way, the most elite armored cavalry in the Sui army was the five thousand Youzhou iron cavalry under Luo Yi.
