If the sudden dispatch of the northern border army can be understood as a routine military operation of the border army, then the Qi lord ordered the crown prince to inspect Jinyang on behalf of his father, which made all the Hu people feel that the wind and clouds above their heads changed......

A few years ago, in the battle between the Northern Qi and the Turks, the Northern Qi did not exert all their strength, but the final result was the defeat of the Turks, who were regarded as behemoths by the world. Although when the Lord of Qi and the Tubo Khan swore a blood oath on the outskirts of Pingcheng, they still called the Turkic Khan his father-in-law and were very respectful to the Turkic Khan, but who could see that the Northern Dynasty and the Turks had already been separated.

But more unexpected changes are yet to come.

The Northern Qi attacked the Zhou State, the Zhou State was defeated, the entire Guanzhong was lost, and the monarchs and ministers of the Zhou State retreated to a corner of Shuzhong, surviving for a long time.

The Northern Qi Dynasty and the Southern Dynasty fought, the Southern Dynasty was also defeated, and the Southern Dynasty Emperor Chen Ji nervously trained his soldiers in Taicheng, as many as 100,000 people, so as to strengthen his courage. The Lord of Qi stationed 100,000 troops in Luoyang, and recruited tens of thousands of soldiers in Huainan to be deployed on the front line of Shiliang, and it seemed that he intended to confront him for a long time.

The people's grievances in the Southern Dynasties were boiling, and the country's strength was declining.

The Northern Qi Dynasty is like the rising sun, and under its light, the other countries around it are humble like fireflies. And this round of scorching sun is only revealing a little brilliance, and its body is still hidden behind thousands of mountains, waiting for the opportunity. But everyone knows that it will rise sooner or later. When it hangs in the middle of the sky, all enemies will be burned to charcoal.

There will be countless corpses lying on the way to the rise of this country.

On this day, Jinyang, after a short period of sunny weather, dark clouds gradually began to surge, and ominous smells floated in the air......

A few falcons hovered high in the sky, their sharp eyes fixed on the vast wilderness, they spread their wings, skimming the mountains and rivers, nothing can be their way, they are the overlords of the sky, they despise everything on the ground, as long as the prey appears in their field of vision, it will become their meal.

But today is different.

On this land that they swept over every day, a large black and oppressive forest suddenly appeared, this was a human forest, countless swords, guns, swords and halberds pointed to the sky like branches and leaves, and the awe-inspiring murderous aura made them, the proud air overlords, feel awe and uneasy!

Gao Heng, the crown prince of Qi, was inspecting the three armies under the command of his uncle Gao Yanzong, the governor of Jinyang. There has never been a prince who has inherited such powers and responsibilities at this age, but the edict of the Supreme in Yecheng has mobilized all the resources and manpower in this majestic city, and the crown prince represents the authority of the emperor, and everyone must obey his will.

The six towns of Jinyang are the basis of the military force of the founding of the dynasty, in recent years, the imperial court will be the six squares to cut greatly, and refill some new structures, the soldiers of the six towns have become the imperial court recruitment, they are no longer obeyed by the generals, and are no longer the exclusive use of the Xianbei people, their strong force makes them become the sharp blade of the Northern Qi to crush many tribes in the north.

The crown prince was wrapped between this group of warriors armed to the teeth, although he was a little nervous and scared, but more excited. Probably all boys have dreams of fighting on the battlefield, even if he knows that the possibility of being able to go to the battlefield is zero, but when he stands on the platform, the murderous aura and majesty that come to his face still stimulate his blood boiling.

But boiling is boiling, as the prince's teacher, Su Wei will never allow the prince to make any more outrageous moves, he stood aside, wearing a grand court dress, put his hands into his sleeves, and remained motionless. Although he always looked like he wanted to doze off, his eyes were still firmly nailed to the prince, and he couldn't help it, so he reminded in a whisper:

"Your Highness, so many people are watching, pay attention to your manners."

At this time, Gao Heng couldn't help but pout, thinking in his heart that his father always didn't sit when he went to court, and when he came to him, he was even taught a lesson on how to stand.

However, Gao Heng is limited to thinking about it in his heart, he has been very self-disciplined since he was a child, even if he hates to do some things, as long as his father says it is right, he will always obey.

Lao Tzu's mouth naturally can't spit out his son's goodness, in Gao Wei's number of falls, Gao Heng is the same as the stuffy gourd, his personality is not pleasant, and he is afraid of his father like a tiger, he has to think more about him, and he actually likes this child very much in his heart. In the eyes of the ministers, the prince is undoubtedly old and stable. As the saying goes, when you see the old since you were a child, this prince, in general, still satisfies the emperor and courtiers.

After Su Wei reminded him twice, the prince really stopped looking around, and put on the appearance that a prince should be. Su Wei was finally relieved, held his breath, and waited for King Ande to reply to the crown prince. At this time, the three armies had already completed the inspection, Gao Yanzong took the military flag, rode through a team, went straight to the point general, turned over and dismounted, and bowed:

"Your Highness, the army has been inspected and is ready to set off at any time."

Gao Yanzong only worshiped the prince, and Su Wei and Pei Shiju didn't dare to accept his big gift, so they bowed slightly and bowed their hands to show respect. Gao Heng hesitated for a moment, remembered what the master had told him before, tried to put up the shelf, nodded and said, "Uncle Wang is fortunate, uh...... That, which one is the army that sent troops this time, how many troops are there, who is the main general? ”

King Ande stood still and said, "Your Highness, these soldiers and horses are all drawn from the various armies of Jinyang, and they can't be subordinate to which one...... As for the candidate for the main general, the minister did not dare to say anything, so he asked His Highness to choose. ”

Gao Heng blinked his eyes and looked at a phalanx in the center of the column in front of him, the iron lance was like a forest, but it was also very majestic, thinking that this uncle did not fool himself with some defective products, so he said:

"Father, the emperor is the tiger cavalry general, Da Xi Changru."

"-That's Da Xi Changru!" Gao Yanzong's tone was sonorous, and he said categorically: "Your Royal Highness, the minister has selected two hundred armor cavalry, 1,500 light cavalry, and 4,000 infantry armor, totaling more than 5,000, all of whom are good hands in the Jinyang army, and their combat power is quite considerable. ”

Su Wei and Pei Shiju frowned at the same time, although this person couldn't hear any objections in and out of his words, but there was some inexplicable smell of gunpowder in and out of his words, was he complaining about that? Your Majesty? The crown prince heard the smell of gunpowder in the uncle's tone, and he did not panic, he said calmly: "Uncle Wang has any objections to General Daxi? Lone heard that Uncle Wang had run nine hundred miles to attack Chang'an, but in the end he was intercepted by General Da Xi and lost in Xiazhou. ”

Gao Yanzong's face turned red, and he seemed to be ashamed of being peeped through by a hairy child, but in front of the public, he couldn't lose face, so he knew that it was inappropriate, but he still bent his neck to argue for himself: "The minister was running thousands of miles at that time, and he was going to pull out Chang'an in one go, but the minister was too careless, and the army failed to rest, which made Daxi Changru find a gap and break it...... The minister admits that this is the sin of the minister to underestimate the enemy, but this does not mean that he is more clever than me! ”

Da Xi Changru, who was standing at the front of the stage, was expressionless, as if Gao Yanzong was not talking about him.

"It turns out that the uncle also has thoughts about the commander of the Northern Expedition......"

Gao Heng nodded, and then asked, "In that case, why didn't Uncle play my grandfather early?" ”

This sentence forced Gao Yanzong into a corner, it is true that the emperor wants to cut Gao Yanzong's power, and it is not false that he intends to let Daxi Changru be the main general, but Gao Wei is not good-looking for tearing his face between brothers, and he still leaves a line for doing things, thinking that if Gao Yanzong wants to compete for the position of the boss, then the position of the coach will simply be calculated by Gao Yanzong, and the right should be compensated, but until he has to make a decision, Gao Yanzong still has nothing to say, this is no wonder Gao Wei, who let you not fight for yourself?

Gao Yanzong actually has a hard time, and he has also seen some of the methods of the Yecheng Imperial Court recently, saying that it is impossible to have no resentment in his heart. His fourth brother, Gao Changgong, is such a person, and he actually has to defile himself in order to save his ...... He himself is not afraid at all, he is not afraid of shadows! But His Majesty knew the grievances of the fourth brother, so he still turned a blind eye and pretended not to see.

That's really ...... Makes people angry!

Could it be that all those trusts and friendships in the past were fake?!

Gao Yanzong is smart, but he has a straightforward personality, he can't stand this kind of anger, so Da Ra said:

"General Da Xi may have been invincible when he was young, but after all, he is already old, he is Yang Yan, the governor of Yanzhou, what a heroic man back then? At his age, he can't pull the bow anymore! The minister's temperament is like this, and the minister said bluntly, let an old man lead the army to fight, especially in the Monan grassland for a long time, his body and bones are ironclad. This is irresponsible for the whole situation! ”

The crown prince blinked, obviously not knowing how to end next, and Su Wei and Pei Shiju both had anger on their faces, and before they could speak, someone asked coldly: "It's just that I'm a little older, and the king thinks that I can't fight anymore, isn't this conclusion too arbitrary?" Lian Po is old and can still open a hard bow and wear heavy armor to fight, even if I can't compare to Lian Po, I won't be weak and can't even pull the bow. ”

Da Xi Changru's eyes were like electricity, and he was cold and cold.

Gao Yanzong remembered the tragic defeat he had been defeated by Daxi Changru in Xiazhou, and he didn't dare to look him in the eyes, so he only snorted disdainfully: "What's the use of you just talking, you have to prove it to me." ”

"How does the king want me to prove it?"

Gao Yanzong pointed to the sky, glanced at it randomly, and said to a few falcons hovering in the air: "If you shoot them down, I will believe you!" Everyone looked up at the sky, and scolded in their hearts: These birds are flying so high, even from the high platform, they can only see a few small black dots, and the shape is not clear, let alone shoot down!

Gao Yanzong's chicken thief is very good!

Looking at his triumphant appearance, he must have felt that he had won...... At this time, Da Xi Changru sneered: "What's so difficult about this? Bring the bow! Everyone looked at this veteran in amazement, Pei Shiju looked at a waiter beside the prince, and the waiter immediately understood that he would go down to get a bow, Da Xi Changru weighed it, frowned, and said: "It's too light, I beg Your Highness to bring a heavier bow." ”

Gao Heng's jaw shook his head, and he was given a hard bow that sank a lot.

Gao Yanzong just wanted to laugh at him, but he checked the weight of the bow, and then felt an arrow and put it on the string, and then pulled it all up! Gao Yanzong was a little dumbfounded, in terms of weight, this bow must not have twenty stones, it is as heavy as a small grinding plate, you must know that a bow that can pull a bow weighing nine stones is already considered a strong man who is one in a thousand, this old man is so violent?

Careless!

Gao Yanzong instantly sensed that something was wrong, Gao Yanzong boasted that his strength was amazing, but he estimated that he might not be able to pull this bow easily...... But after thinking about it, he could draw the bow, but he could not necessarily shoot the birds, but when he finished aiming, he casually spread the bowstring, and then there was a miserable eagle cry in the sky, and a small black dot fell from the sky, and the others scattered and fled......

Everyone was stunned.

Da Xi Changru was still calm, and the arrows jumped out like beads, and every time the arrow was shot, a black spot fell from the sky. In less than a cup of tea, the few falcons hovering above their heads had all been shot in the air, and they didn't know where they had fallen...... The entire high platform, together with the Jinyang army that surrounds the high platform, is silent, and the needle drop can be heard.

Gao Yanzong was naturally among the shocked melon-eating masses, he looked at the sky in a daze, and then looked at Da Xi Changru, but he couldn't say a word...... At this time, Da Xi Changru had already withdrawn his bow and arrows, and he had changed back to his original indifferent posture.

Gao Yanzong couldn't help but think, if this old man aimed at him in the back during the battle of Xiazhou, he was afraid that he would have been martyred with honor?
