Volume 1 begins with The Scout

Yang Baqing threw the knife to the ground, he was very frustrated, he wanted to use all his strength to use Zhang Xutuo's first style of splitting the mountain, and win with the strange knife technique, but Yu Juluo was preemptive, although he almost hit the other party, but Yu Juluo's knife cut off his follow-up knife technique just right, so that he couldn't make a move later.

He realized that the biggest flaw in Zhang Xutuo's knife technique is that each move is independent and incoherent enough, so if the two moves before and after are not well coordinated, it is easy to have flaws, and Yu Juluo will attack him preemptively, so that he can't see Yu Kuluo's knife momentum, and hesitate in his heart, so there is a trace of stagnation between his front and back two knives, and he was caught by Yu Juluo.

Yu Juluo stared at Yang Yuanba and said lightly: "You don't have to be frustrated, although you will be defeated with one move, this is not because you are not skilled in swordsmanship, but because of your lack of experience, in another five or six years, I will not be your opponent." ”

Yang Yuanba smiled bitterly and said: "I have been practicing the knife for five years, but I never knew that there was such a fatal flaw in my knife technique, alas!"

"It's not! There is no flaw in your knife technique, if it is Zhang Xutuo, he will not have any flaws, because your combat experience is not rich enough, for the general mediocre hand, he will parry your knife, so that you have the opportunity to cut out the next knife, but for the really experienced generals, will avoid the real and make a preemptive attack, you just because you don't know where my counterattack knife came from, so you have a trace of concern, this is the performance of your lack of experience in battle, lack of a momentum, or the realm is insufficient, as long as you have more actual combat, your flaws will be less and less, which is also the characteristics of Zhang Xutuo's knife method。 ”

"If you were to play against my master, would you be so preemptive?" Yang Yuanba asked as he stared at him.

Yu Juluo smiled slightly, "Never, then I am a dead end, you are observing me, why am I not observing you, from you on the horse, carrying the knife, I know that you have never had actual combat experience, I know how to deal with you, the knife is dead, but the person is alive, because of the person and the knife, according to the place, whether it is the knife or the art of war, you have to remember this." ”

Yang Yuanba nodded silently, he remembered, and Yu Juluo said again: "In addition, I also found that you have a flaw. ”

Yang Yuanba was taken aback, "What is the shortcoming?"

Yu Juluo smiled, "You don't have to be nervous, it's just my personal feeling, I feel that you are not suitable for using a knife, or rather, a knife is not your best weapon, it will not play to your advantage." ”

Yang Yuanba's expression was very serious, and he arched his hand and asked, "Can you ask the general to explain in detail!"

"Because I found that your greatest strength is to be good at capturing the weakness of the opponent, from the weakness you just found my war horse, it can be seen that the two armies are fighting like this, once you find the weakness of the other party, you must use the fastest speed to catch it, otherwise the fighter is fleeting, and the knife belongs to a slow weapon, because it has a process of swinging the arm and chopping, when you find the weakness of the opponent, and when you open the knife again, the weakness may have disappeared, in this case, you had better use the spear, because the spear is the fastest, do not need to slash, directly borrow the momentum of the war horse to stab the opponent, very suitable for you to be good at capturing the advantage of the fighter。 ”

"General Yu means to say, let me change to spear training?"

"Not really, I mean, you have to feel best for yourself, and I can help you think about it. ”

At this time, Yang Su urged the horse to step forward slowly, and smiled at his grandson: "Yuanba, is there any gain in this battle with your General Yu?"

"Returning to my grandfather, my grandson has benefited a lot. ”

"Then you have to ask General Yu for advice from now on. ”

"Yes!"

Yuan Ba hesitated, and asked again: "Grandson still wants to be a scout, please ask grandfather to fulfill it." ”

"Yes!"

Yang Su smiled faintly, "You are a soldier for the first time, you should have been a soldier, but you have been named a captain of benevolence and courage by the saint, and if you are a small soldier, the saint will accuse me of ignoring the king's will, and I will appoint you as the scout commander of the first army." ”

Yang Su said to Yu Juluo again: "General Yu, I will hand him over to you, I still say the same thing, life and death are in the sky, if he dies on the battlefield, it is also his creation." ”

..........

The first time was the fire chief, there were nine soldiers under his command, Zhao Yong took special care of him, and sent him several scout veterans, all of whom had their own specialties and rich experience, but according to Yang Su's orders, Zhao Yong concealed Yang Yuanba's true identity and age.

Fire is the lowest level of the army, the scout regiment is generally a fire soldiers live in a camp tent, the war horse is tied to the outside of the camp tent, Yang Yuanba's camp tent is located in the northeast corner, at this time nine soldiers are in front of the camp tent in two rows to listen to the new fire long lecture.

"From today on, I am your fire chief, the lives of the nine of you are in my hands, obedient, I will save your life, disobedient, or give me a secret troublemaker, I will be the first to send him to death!"

These words were learned by Yang Yuanba and Yu Juluo, and when Yu Juluo was appointed as a general to lecture the generals of each regiment, Yang Yuanba stood next to him.

Nine soldiers were drawn from each team, several of them were nearly thirty years old, all of them were experienced, but they were also veterans, they didn't know Yang Yuanba's identity, and when they saw him with a baby face, there was obvious contempt in the eyes of the soldiers.

At this time, a soldier in the back row gently stabbed the extremely tall and strong black-faced bearded veteran next to him, and asked in a low voice, "Old Yang, where did this person come from?"

"Fool, don't you see his armor? It's black. ”

Yang Yuanba was still wearing black Mingguang armor, which was Yang Su's personal attire, which made the veterans more or less jealous.

"My name is Yang Yuanba, a native of Beijing, where are the brothers from, report your name, let me know you. ”

"In Xia Zhao Mingsheng, a native of Puzhou, in Xia Zhang Jin, a native of Luoyang, in Xia Liu Jian, a native of Jingzhao Fufeng, ....."

"In Xiayu Quanhong, a native of Luoyang, nicknamed Fat Fish. "This is a very obese soldier signing up.

The bearded veteran also said angrily: "My surname is Yang, my name is Yang Sien, a native of Youzhou." ”

Yang Yuanba glanced at him, seeing that his appearance should be a Xianbei person, Yang Yuanba's gaze fell on the youngest soldier, who was sixteen or seventeen years old, with fair skin, slender body, quiet and silent eyes, this was the only young man under twenty years old among the nine big men.

This fair-skinned young soldier was easily violated in the barracks, but this young soldier was an exception, he was an eagle slave.

On his shoulder stood a black falcon, with a huge physique, the eagle's beak was curved like a sharp blade, the eagle's claws were like steel and iron bones, and his eyes were cold and sharp, which was terrifying.

It was the falcon on the shoulders of this young soldier that made the other soldiers dare not provoke him, Yang Yuanba smiled and said, "What about you, what's your name?"

"In Lieutenant Chi Dan, a native of Qingzhou. ”

Among their nine soldiers, the ethnic complex is complex, five Han people, two Xianbei people, one Hun people, one Qiang people, this Wei Chi Dun and Yang Sien are all Xianbei people, this is also the status quo of the Tianwu Dynasty, the Hu and Han in the northern region have been mixed for more than 100 years, whether it is the Han people or the Hu people, the general people basically don't care too much.

Everyone introduced themselves one by one, and at this time, a herald came running and shouted, "Who is the fifth fire chief?"

Yang Yuanba hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "I am!"

The herald commanded the arrow: "There is an order for a hundred people, the fifth fire is on duty tonight, patrol the forest!"

........

At this time, it was still the first month, the night was very cold, and there was already a layer of gray night fog in the forest, like a gray belt floating in the woods, and most of Yang Yuanba's men were veterans, and they had already brought thick blankets and spirits.

Gu Du poured a few big sips of spirits, everyone tied the horses to the side, wrapped the blankets around their bodies, and fell asleep when they found a leeward place, but Yang Yuanba had no experience, he didn't bring a blanket, he was here to patrol, and he never thought that patrolling could sleep?

Yang Yuanba smiled bitterly, found a big stone and sat down, this is Guanzhong Yongxian, of course, there can be no Turkic ambushes, and it is just routine for them to come out to patrol.

Fortunately, he is not afraid of the cold, the cold wind in January is as warm as a spring breeze for him, he took out a piece of dried mutton from the bag, this is their night snack on duty, a piece of mutton per person, a pot of wine, during the war, the army is generally not allowed to drink, except for scouts, scouts to resist the cold at night.

"Huo Chang, don't you sleep for a while?"

Wei Chidun walked up to him and sat down, the eagle on his shoulder was like an old master, sleeping with his eyes closed, Yang Yuanba smiled and raised the dried mutton and shook it in front of it, the falcon ignored him at all.

Wei Chi Tang laughed, "It only eats raw meat, not cooked meat!"

Yang Yuanba took back the dried meat and nibbled on it himself, and said with a smile: "These bastards are actually sleeping, I still want to assign them to go to vigil everywhere, the scouts are really unqualified!"

"Huo Chang, they all know in their hearts, if it is in the grassland now, they will not sleep, it is normal. ”

After a moment's hesitation, Wei Chi asked curiously, "Huo Chang, how old are you this year?" They are all betting that you are no more than seventeen years old. ”

Yang Yuanba smiled, "I'm nineteen years old this year, I have a baby face, who won the bet?"

"Liu Jian won the bet, and he said that you are nineteen years old this year. ”

"Damn, you dare to bet on Lao Tzu!"

Yang Yuanba scolded foully, he felt that this Wei Chidun was also here to test him, these scouts were all like ghosts, and they were probably guessing his background.

At this time, he suddenly saw a horse lance hanging on Yang Sien's horse, he was stunned for a moment, who is Yang Sien? Can he actually use a horse lance, Yang Yuanba remembered what Yu Juluo said to him at noon, so that the spear was more suitable for him, and he got up and walked towards this horse lance as soon as the thought turned in his heart.
