Chapter 102: The Expedition
In September of the first year of Zhenguan, my father suddenly came to an order, which meant that he should report to the left guard and follow the left guard general Chai Shao to go on the expedition.
Who is Chai Shao, Li Er's brother-in-law, the third son-in-law of Emperor Li Yuan, the husband of the deceased Princess Pingyang Zhao, and one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion.
I don't know if this expedition is a historical mistake, or Yang Heng's arrival changed history, Liang Shidu, who was supposed to go to the expedition at the beginning of the next year, is now in advance for the end of the first year of Zhenguan.
Liang Shidu He Xu people, Xiazhou Shuofang people, the world is the county's wealthy family, Sui is the general of the Eagle Yang Mansion, was dismissed from office and returned to his hometown in the last years of the great cause, so he befriended the party and became thieves, and then occupied Shuofang County to rebel, proclaimed himself the prime minister, and with the Turkic soldiers, occupied a little territory and proclaimed himself the emperor, arrogant very, in general, his backer is the Turks, and now the Turks are in chaos, it is the time to eliminate Liang Shidu.
When his father received the order, Yang Heng received a message at the same time, that is, Yang Heng could not go to school during this time, and he was allowed to follow his father to the army, which was a strange thing, but Yang Heng also wanted to follow, but he was just seen through in advance.
When Dad took Yang Heng and a few guards to report to the barracks together, he found that this was an awkward position, and I don't know what Li Er thought, Chai Shao is a general, Xue Wanche is the deputy head of the march, and Xue Wanche's level is the same as Dad's, but Xue Wanche's position is Xue Wanche's position, and there is no Dad's position, Chai Shao only gave Dad's scouts of 100 people, and made him a scout captain, so that this has nothing to do with Dad's lack of fame.
"Grandpa, this scout is in the right taste for you and my father and son, we just trained a group of good scouts for them to see which of them dares to look down on us." Yang Heng found that his father was a little unhappy, so he hurriedly comforted his father, and the guards next to him were also a little unhappy.
"General, we originally wanted to follow you to make some contributions, but now, there is no hope, I know that it is better to be honest as our martial marquis." These are a few of the more handy soldiers under Daddy.
"Okay, don't complain, follow my grandfather and don't have a chance to make meritorious contributions, now you go and take charge of training those scout queues, and you take a period of time every day to learn some sign language and flag language from me." When it was said that Daddy was in charge of the scout camp, Yang Heng immediately had such an idea, on the original military basis of the scouts, plus some sign language, and even flag language, sign language is used for short-distance communication, and flag language is used for long-distance communication, which will expand the scope of their exploration, and even increase the speed of transmitting information.
"General, no, our men are fighting with the scouts." Before Yang Heng could think about the matter clearly, a guard came to report to his father, "Let's go, let's go and have a look together." Naturally, Daddy answered, and Yang Heng followed Daddy to the scout camp.
"What's the matter, whoever is still not convinced, come up and try it." Several guards were back to back, in defensive positions, still talking arrogantly, while dozens of scouts were knocked to the ground on the ground.
"This, no, hand-to-hand combat is not our strong point, if you want to compare, it is better than the ability to be on the horse, dare not." A group of scouts on one side were blushing and arguing, perhaps thinking in their minds that these guards were no match for them on horseback.
But what they don't know is that these guards are who they are, they are all Dad's capable subordinates, and when there is nothing to do, Dad also arranges for them to practice some riding skills, as well as spearmanship or something, which is naturally a combination of techniques, since Dad has entered the army, the purpose is to make contributions on the battlefield, if there are not a few suitable subordinates, how can it be done.
"You," Daddy was about to get angry, "Grandpa, let them compete, or they will be dissatisfied." "Naturally, a word from Daddy here will stop this fight, Daddy's level is here, and even speaking, Daddy is on the same level as the No. 2 person in this team, and some soldiers dare not listen to him.
"You guys fight well, and if anyone loses, then give General Ben a good listen to the other party." Dad was pulled by Yang Heng, and naturally reacted immediately, at this time, it was the time to collect the attention of these scouts.
"Come, bring some horses, don't win you, you will think our horses are good, this is the victory for you." Daddy's subordinates are also arrogant, they know that Lu Dao will definitely win, you must know that Lu Dao their usual training intensity is very large, especially after the hand-to-hand combat just now that the scouts suffered a loss, their confidence is stronger, you must know that the ability of these guards is stronger than their hand-to-hand combat, there is a very perverted general who feeds them every day, if they can't practice, it's not a joke.
"Ha, your horses also use the shoe, tell you, this farrier is made by our general's family." This is already an open secret, and Li Er's ability to give Yang Heng's uncles official titles is also the result of hyping up this matter.
That, these soldiers don't know these things, they use the farrier and think that they are the only ones who use it now, after the general's guards said this, they are a little guilty in their hearts, making the farrier, they don't have considerable horseback riding experience, they can't think of such a way, who does this experience rely on, then naturally rely on these guards to ride horses outside all day long will be the result. This idea is definitely good, a person can't think of the farrier behind closed doors at home, and only by understanding the horses, and how easy it is for horses to get injured, will they have this mind to consider, and also understand how thick the nails of the horse's hooves are, so they dare to nail the hoof, but what they don't know is that Yang Heng is from the later generations, and these hooves are the most commonly used things in the later generations.
"Tell me, how to compete." Daddy's subordinate Niu snorted and said, "I'll talk about this." Yang Heng interjected at this time, "Yes, listen to the young general." "Dad's subordinates are very smart, they are afraid that these scouts will say something ugly to make Yang Heng angry, so they naturally woke them up, this is the general's son, they usually don't have this title, and the usual title has always been Xiao Langjun.
"Okay, we also agree, let's let the major general solve the question." The scouts beat the snake with the stick, and also called the major general, this is the general's son, it is okay to offend the guards, but to offend the general's son, that is a fool.
