Standing in front of the Mingde Gate, in the bustling crowd, looking up at the towering city wall, Zhang Changan had thousands of words in his chest, but he didn't know what to say. I held back for a while, and at the end, I squeezed out a few words: "It's so big, it's so high!"

Chu Zheng next to him laughed out loud and sneered unceremoniously: "If your grandfather knew that when you saw Chang'an City, where he was tied day and night, he would sigh with such a few words, not to mention whether he would be so angry that he vomited blood, it is estimated that the word 'Chang'an', he must have regretted giving it to you." ”

Zhang Changan glanced at him and said unconvinced: "What do you know, this is called the sound of the voice, the elephant is invisible, only the most simple and straightforward language can properly express our perception and make people empathize!"

"I'll just accept your ability to talk serious nonsense. Chu Zheng sneered, "Only at this time can you have a bit of the literary brilliance of a great family son." ”

The two talked and talked without stopping, all the way into the city gate. Only in this way can they hide their ups and downs and not feel like a countryman.

Comparatively speaking, Peng Zushan, who is walking behind, is much more sincere. When looking around, his eyes are full of reverence and yearning, and from time to time he also emits feelings similar to "really big, really high", and does not hide the essence of his turtle.

The feedback from such words and deeds is that the people of Chang'an around them have cast their eyes to look at the soil buns, full of superiority. When I look at him, my eyes are long on the door of my head. Some women will mumble disdainfully about where the mountain boy came from, which is really unlucky.

This made Chu Zheng and Zhang Changan, who did not squint and kept their mouths, deliberately widened the distance between them and Peng Zushan. We don't know him, and we don't look like he's all the way, so as not to be embarrassed.

After the Battle of Yangguan last winter, Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng followed Li Xian and worked hard at the border for half a year. Every day, he is either practicing or learning military affairs, and occasionally observing the new magic weapons refined by Peng Zushan.

Originally, such days would not end in two or three years, and only in this way could Li Xian's tempering of them be completed. Unexpectedly, the news of the establishment of Chang'an Cultivation Academy came.

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng were in the realm of the middle stage of qi training before they rushed to Yangguan, and after the experience of the Yangguan battle and the precipitation of more than half a year, coupled with Li Xian's Dun Dun teaching, and Nangong's first point of mentioning from time to time, the cultivation has reached the high stage of qi training.

Zhang Chang'an and Chu Zheng, who also had good military merits, were recruited by the major monk branch of Chang'an Training Academy. As the first batch of reserve forces in the True Realm that were cultivated by the Imperial Dynasty, their future can be imagined.

As for Peng Zushan, he didn't come to study, but to enter the craftsman branch to be a gentleman.

His magic weapon bed crossbow has been improved so far, and the power increase is not large, but the stability has changed qualitatively. It is already possible to launch for three hours in a row without worrying about collapse. After every three hours of use, it only needs to be eased for half an hour before it can be put into use.

Such a magic weapon bed crossbow has been equipped with twenty in the Guiyi Army.

In addition, the imperial court craftsman also got the drawings early and is working hard day and night. According to Li Ye's plan, there will be 200 magic weapon bed crossbows to equip the army this year.

In fact, at the beginning, Peng Zushan was reluctant to come to Chang'an, and being a gentleman in the academy was not attractive to him.

It wasn't until Li Ye promised him that as long as he taught at the Chang'an Cultivation Academy, whatever magic materials he wanted to do research in the future, the craftsmen and supervisors would be open to supply, he would set off without hesitation.

After entering the city gate, Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng both stopped.

The look on his face that he had been pretending not to care about was finally unable to hold back at the moment, and his cheek muscles twitched.

Seeing that the two of them were not leaving, Peng Zushan put his head on their shoulders and pushed forward, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he immediately exclaimed: "It's so wide, it's so long!"

The wide Suzaku Street makes people walk on it like grains of rice. And at a glance, you can see the majestic imperial city gate at the end of the long street! This kind of shocking feeling is indeed not something that a few country boys can ignore.

At this moment, the three horsemen galloped from Suzaku Street, the speed was as fast as lightning, and the pen reached in front of Zhang Changan and others!

Seeing that they were about to be crushed by the horse's hooves, the rider took a few steps in front of them and grabbed the reins violently. The steed man stood up and neighed loudly, drawing angry glances from the pedestrians in the street.

Suzaku Street is not allowed to ride horses, this is an iron law.

But when someone recognized that these three horsemen were the wolf tooth army in the Chang'an Forbidden Army, no one dared to express their opinions.

The Wuhou shops on the street will not dare to arrest the people of the Wolf Tooth Army. Anyway, if the other party really makes trouble, there are people above who will be held responsible.

"Are you from Yangguan?" the cavalry led by him asked in a cold voice.

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng immediately raised their heads and held their chests, even in the face of the existence of being a street arranger, they also had to show the integrity of the Yangguan soldiers, "Yes." ”

"Come back to camp with us!" the rider immediately smiled heartily.

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng were stunned at the same time, and when they saw each other smiling, they realized that the powerful general headed by him turned out to be a woman.

"Why are we coming with you? We are here at the Chang'an Academy. Zhang Changan was bold and behaved very backbonely. After all, his family background is the most prominent among the three, and at this time he feels that he must come out in order not to fall into his prestige.

The smile on Zhao Nianci's face disappeared again, "The Wolf Tooth Army invited, would anyone still refuse?"

"Wolf Tooth Army?"

Hearing these three words, the three of them were shocked in unison. That is the most elite subordinate to King An, invincible and invincible, and has long played a prestigious reputation, which hot-blooded man does not admire such an army?

Now it is a great honor to be invited by the other party to be a guest. Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng glanced at each other, and they both saw the excitement in each other's eyes, and immediately nodded hurriedly, "Let's go to the barracks with you!"

"No, I'm alone. Zhao Nianci stretched out a finger.

"Alone?" Zhang Changan thought for a while, feeling that this person must be himself. After all, his family is illustrious, and he has made great contributions in the battle of Jincheng County, and his grandfather also had a banquet with King An.

Chu Zheng also felt that this person was himself. It must be himself, his master is from Bailu Cave, and he has a deep relationship with two generations of King An, who doesn't know that Bailu Cave is outstanding?

"I'll go with you!" Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng spoke at the same time.

They looked at each other again. It's just that this time, the two brothers have war in their eyes, and neither of them feels that they are worse than the other.

"You are all Peng Zushan?" Zhao Nianci asked strangely.

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng were stunned together, "Peng Zushan?"

Zhao Nianci looked at the person behind them, who was as strong and dark as an iron tower, "It seems that you are Peng Zushan." ”

Peng Zushan looked confused: "I'm Peng Zushan, but why should I go to your barracks?"

Zhao Nianci smiled evilly, "You'll know when you go!"

As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, the two riders behind him got off the horse, one left and one right, and couldn't help but say, lifting Peng Zushan and galloping away, even not riding a horse.

Look at the speed at which they disappeared as soon as they slipped through the smoke, but they were faster than war horses, and they were clearly two powerhouses with high qi training!

"Welcome to Chang'an. Two little guys, enjoy the prosperity of Chang'an. ”

Zhao Nianci threw a ridiculous look at the stunned Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng, turned the horse's head, led the other two horses, and soon disappeared from view.

"It's ...... What's going on?"

"What is the stone of Pengzu Mountain?"

Zhang Changan and Chu Zheng felt extremely puzzled and aggrieved.

When the two of them finally came back to their senses, they had lost the vigor of entering Chang'an for the first time, and walked listlessly towards Chang'an Cultivation Institute while asking for directions.

At this time, a fierce quarrel was being staged in the council hall in King An's mansion.

The quarrel was a group of military generals, one with a blushing face and thicker neck, looking at their beards and hair, it seemed as if they were eager to roll up their sleeves and start fighting. The noise is so loud that it tends to lift the roof.

At the beginning of spring this year, the Chang'an Forbidden Army had 300,000 people, and there were three armies under its jurisdiction: the Longxiang Army, the Tiger Guard Army, and the Wolf Tooth Army. Now in autumn, because it has been refined, the number of forbidden troops has expanded to 500,000, and the two new armies are: Yulin and Changning.

Now, the chief generals and deputy generals of the five armies are all in the council hall.

In the beginning, it was still several lieutenants arguing, and then the argument turned into a quarrel. They are all generals in the army, and no one is willing to lose to anyone compared to the momentum, so their voices are louder than the other.

If you dare to stand up, I will dare to rush to the hall, if you rush to the hall, I will dare to push you with my chest muscles, if you dare to fight with me, I will dare to spray your face.

The main generals couldn't stand it anymore, for fear that their lieutenants would not hold back and fight in the council hall.

Although when they entered the Anwang Mansion, everyone's weapons were handed over to Menzi, but after all, they were all powerful generals, even if they were fists, they could blast out a mouthful of blood with one punch.

Even if King An has not come yet, but being presumptuous in King An's Mansion is definitely underestimating King An's strict military discipline.

The main generals went into battle, originally wanting to pull back their subordinates, but soon felt that the other party's face was really hateful, it was too arrogant, and they couldn't control their hot temper, so they scolded the other party a few times.

Unexpectedly, the other party's main general, seeing that his deputy was being reprimanded, would never be able to sit still, and immediately stood up for himself.

In the end, the entire council hall was still sitting with Zhao Bingkun, Zhao Poyu and Shangguan Chengcheng.

"General Zhao, we are also our own family, this time we are fighting for the magic weapon bed crossbow, and we still have to advance and retreat together. If we fight alone, we will fight for General Shangguan, I'm afraid it's not very likely. ”

Zhao Bingkun leaned over and approached Zhao Poyu for two points and said in a low voice.

Zhao Poyu nodded his head and thought it was true: "General Zhao is right, this is very much in line with my wishes." Although I went out of the Pinglu Army with General Shangguan, at this time and at that time, now that we are all Chang'an Forbidden Army, I will not be polite to her. ”

Zhao Bingkun was overjoyed and said with a low smile: "With you and me working together, the magic weapon bed crossbow will definitely fall into our hands!"

The two people who reached the agreement felt very satisfied, and in addition to calling them brothers, they also glanced at Shangguan Chengcheng from time to time.

Contrary to their expectations, from beginning to end, Shangguan Allure was drinking tea by himself. Slowly, without pretending to be profound, calm, or apprehensive, as if he hadn't noticed their whispered conversation.

Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Poyu were surprised, but they looked at each other and were a little incomprehensible.

The effect of the magic weapon bed crossbow has been vividly reflected in Yangguan. Now, the craftsman supervisor is rushing to produce day and night, and two hundred planes are about to be baked, which naturally becomes the object of competition for the army.

Naturally, the Zhenjun didn't have to think about it, unless it was a border pass, Li Ye would not allocate it.

As the central army, the Chang'an Forbidden Army will definitely be able to get the vast majority, but the Forbidden Army now has five armies and 500,000 people, and how to distribute these magic weapons and crossbows is a problem that the generals are trying to think about.

After all, Zhao Poyu and Shangguan Chengcheng had a relatively long relationship, and when he saw that the other party had an attitude that he had nothing to do with himself, he couldn't help but ask: "General Shangguan, don't you want a magic weapon bed crossbow?"

Shangguan Chengcheng put down the tea bowl and said casually: "Of course." ”

Zhao Poyu was even more strange: "Then why is General Shangguan so indifferent? Could it be that King An has already promised you a batch?"

Shangguan Chengcheng glanced at Zhao Poyu, "His Royal Highness governs the army, there has always been clear rewards and punishments, military law is like a mountain, and the magic weapon bed crossbow is the important weapon of the country, how can there be a reason to teach and receive privately?"

Zhao Bingkun couldn't sit still, and interjected: "Then why don't you see General Shangguan in a hurry?

Shangguan Chengcheng took another sip of the tea bowl, "The strength of the army is respected, and the Wolf Tooth Army, as the best in the world, will naturally get more magic weapons and crossbows, so why should I quarrel with others?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Poyu's faces became ugly, and Qi Qi snorted coldly and said no more.

The Wolf Tooth Army is the best in the world, is the Long Xiang Army and the Tiger Guard Army ranked second or third?

Of course, Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Poyu were not convinced.

And Shangguan Allure's appearance of holding a wisdom pearl also made them very uncomfortable. It's as if they have become turtles in an urn, and they still don't know it.

Not long after, Li Ye arrived in the council hall.

A group of fierce generals who had just won the battle were very tacit and consciously separated the moment Li Ye appeared. They sat down obediently, looking at their noses and noses, as if nothing had happened just now, and everyone was a harmonious family.

After Li Ye sat down, he didn't have any extra words, and went straight to the topic: "The two hundred magic weapon bed crossbows made by the craftsman will be released and distributed to the army soon." The Fifth Army of Chang'an is the central forbidden army of the Tang Dynasty and deserves more care. Gu decided that out of the two hundred magic bed crossbows, one hundred and sixty-five would be given to the Chang'an Forbidden Army. ”

As soon as these words came out, all the generals sat upright, knowing that the key point was coming, so they hurriedly listened carefully to the following arrangements.

Only Shangguan Allure is still a salty and indifferent appearance, and he looks like a famous battlefield general who strategizes and wins thousands of miles.

This made Zhao Bingkun and Zhao Poyu a hundred dissatisfied.

Li Ye continued: "The five armies of Chang'an, Long Xiang, Huwei, and Wolf Tooth, each get thirty-five magic weapon bed crossbows, and Yulin and Changning each get thirty. What do you think? If you have any comments, you can put them forward. ”

This allocation is quite reasonable.

Taking into account fairness, it also highlights the merits to a certain extent, after all, the Longxiang Army, the Tiger Guard Army, and the Wolf Tooth Army have gone out to Shuzhong in the spring. Although the war did not start, it was also an expedition of laborers, which had a deterrent effect.

The chief generals and deputy generals of Yulin and Changning naturally had no opinion, and they were able to get thirty magic weapon bed crossbows, which had completely satisfied them, and they were all very happy now.

But Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun were obviously not very satisfied with this distribution. The two of them glanced at each other, reaffirmed their alliance, and Zhao Bingkun took the lead in getting up and speaking.

He said: "Your Highness, assign thirty bed crossbows to each of the two armies of Yulin and Changning, and the last general has no opinion." "First of all, I would like to express my support for the number of bed crossbows obtained by Yulin and Changning, and it would be better to buy them, so that they would not object to their words in the future.

Zhao Bingkun continued: "But the Wolf Tooth Army is mainly based on elite cavalry, and there are very few foot soldiers, and the magic weapon bed crossbow is obviously more suitable for the infantry battle array, and the elite cavalry that focuses on speed can rarely be used." Therefore, the last general thought that the number of magic bed crossbows of the Wolf Tooth Army should be reduced. ”

Li Ye glanced at Zhao Bingkun and was noncommittal.

Zhao Poyu then got up, clasped his fists and said respectfully: "Your Highness, the last general also thinks that what General Zhao said makes sense. I dare not underestimate the combat power of the Wolf Tooth Army, but the magic weapon bed crossbow is indeed more suitable for the infantry army, and I believe that General Shangguan also recognizes this. I also ask His Highness to allocate some more magic weapons bed crossbows to the two armies of Long Xiang and Huwei. ”

Li Ye still did not express his position.

He turned his head to look at Shangguan Chengcheng, who had light eyebrows, and asked with a smile, "General Shangguan, do you agree with the words of the two Zhao generals?"

Contrary to everyone's expectations, Shangguan Chengcheng not only did not refute, but nodded seriously, "What the two generals Zhao said is indeed reasonable. However, our wolf's tooth army also has 30,000 foot soldiers, and when it comes to the battlefield, the battle formation of 30,000 people, and the arrangement of 35 bed crossbows, is not too much in any situation. ”

Speaking of this, just when everyone thought that Shangguan Chengcheng was going to say that he was unwilling to give up the bed crossbow, the corners of Shangguan Chengcheng's mouth raised, "However, the Chang'an Forbidden Army, after all, is a heavy weapon of the dynasty, and only when the armament ration reaches the best can it exert the highest combat power." Your Highness, the Wolf Tooth Army is willing to separate five magic weapon bed crossbows. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt incredible.

Not to mention the main generals and deputy generals of the Yulin and Changning armies, the eyes of Shangguan Chengcheng were full of admiration, expressing their appreciation for her noble conduct. Even the lieutenant generals of the Long Xiang and Tiger Guard armies were pleasantly surprised.

Who is Shangguan Allure? To put it nicely, he is Li Ye's close confidant, and if it is not good, he is Li Ye's general.

Li Ye is willing to give her thirty-five bed crossbows, as long as she doesn't say anything, only Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun want to change this decision, naturally it is not very possible.

But Shangguan Allure took the initiative to give in.

Such generosity cannot but be admired.

Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun felt that something was wrong at the same time, and they wanted to say something when they opened their mouths, but they saw that Shangguan Chengcheng had already taken the lead and said: "Five crosses, no more, otherwise I will not be able to explain to my subordinates." ”

Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun could only keep their mouths shut.

It's good to be able to get five more bed crossbows.

Although there are no two of them on their heads, it is impossible for the Wolf Tooth Army to come up with more.

"You two have no opinion, right?" Shangguan Chengcheng suddenly asked.

Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun can only say no.

Of course, Li Ye knew that this matter would not be simple, Shangguan Chengcheng was a domineering person, and he would definitely not let his subordinates suffer losses - in fact, the generals in the army were like this. There is definitely a reason why I am willing to give in today.

As soon as he thought of the Tsing Yi Yamen reporting that Peng Zushan would arrive in Chang'an in a few days, Li Ye guessed eight or nine points.

"This matter is so decided, what do you think?" asked Li Ye.

"The last general has listened to His Highness's military orders!" everyone stood up and replied, which was considered to be an agreement on the matter.

When the generals sat down again, Shangguan Chengcheng got up and hugged his fists and said, "Your Highness, the Wolf Tooth Army is a lot of fine riders, and it needs to be equipped with stronger and more flexible crossbows. The last general has already discussed with Peng Zushan, and he is willing to stay in the camp of the Wolf Tooth Army for half a year, specializing in researching and making magic weapons for the Wolf Tooth Army. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun reacted immediately.

Sure enough, the five-bed crossbow is not so easy to hold!

They only wanted to compete for the ready-made magic weapon bed crossbow, but Shangguan Chengcheng was so skilled that he even took people away!

Instinctively, Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun wanted to compete for Peng Zushan.

It's just that with short hands and soft mouths, Shangguan Chengcheng has righteously given up five magic weapon bed crossbows, if they follow Shangguan Chengcheng to snatch Peng Zushan, their faces will be too ugly, which is a big taboo for people.

At this time, Zhao Poyu and Peng Zushan reacted, Shangguan Allure originally retreated as an advance, and used only five bed crossbows to buy them, so that they could not compete with themselves for Peng Zushan!

However, Zhao Bingkun still couldn't help but be curious: "General Shangguan, Peng Zushan should have just arrived in Chang'an, how could he agree to be stationed in the camp so quickly and make a magic weapon for your Wolf Tooth Army?"

Shangguan Allure said lightly: "He has already entered the general's barracks, can he still do an errand for the general?"

Zhao Bingkun almost bit his tongue.

This is clearly tough persecution, and Peng Zushan can't be allowed not to agree!

The key party has already taken Peng Zushan into the military camp, even if he and Zhao Poyu want to rob it, they have no chance at all!

"This ...... Peng Zushan is a gentleman invited by His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness will agree to let him run a half-year errand for the Wolf Tooth Army?"

Shangguan Chengcheng hugged his fist to Li Ye: "Your Highness, Peng Zushan is on an errand for my wolf tooth army, and it will not affect the teaching of the academy." It's just that after he finishes teaching, he needs to go back to the barracks.

"The last general heard that His Royal Highness has promised Peng Zushan all the materials he wants. These can all be transported to the camp of the Wolf Tooth Army. The last general will also prepare a special place for him to show his strength. The two things do not affect each other, and they can take care of each other, I wonder if His Highness can approve this matter?"

"Exactly. Li Ye waved his hand generously. This is indeed no obstacle for him, and the magic weapon power crossbow researched for the Wolf Tooth Army can also be equipped with other elite riders.

Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun sat down in their positions with their faces full of decadence.

Well, Peng Zushan not only entered the camp of the Wolf Tooth Army, but the Wolf Tooth Army did not have to bear the loss of the other party's research and production of magic weapons and crossbows!

The cheapness of this world can be taken advantage of by Shangguan Allure!

It is conceivable how powerful the Wolf Tooth Army will be after Peng Zushan researches and improves the magic weapon for cavalry, the crossbow, which is suitable for cavalry.

With the name of the world's sharpest, who else can there be besides the Wolf Tooth Army?

When Li Yeye saw Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun eating deflated, he felt interesting in his heart, and his eyes became extremely bright when he looked at Shangguan Allure.

can calculate Zhao Poyu and Zhao Bingkun, and let the other party lose so much that he has nothing to say, which reflects Shangguan Allure's overwhelming advantage in Wen Taowu's strategy.

Star.

Shangguan has fallen into the realm of famous generals!
