The mountains and rivers are the same, life is easy to get old, heroes are fighting on the battlefield, and in the blink of an eye, how many lives and deaths have turned into ashes. A glass of parting wine, from now on, the end of the world. In the sound of horses' hooves, the desert dusk, the wind sends you thousands of miles. After I go, look at me all over the world, with my palms in my hands!

A few days later, several Han troops who went north to participate in the war withdrew from the front line one after another, and returned to various garrisons in the Central Plains through the right Beiping. In this operation, the court had no merit and no reward, and it ended in a hurry.

Outside the city of Beiping on the right, Princess Li'an's car is also going back to Chang'an.

The mission of harmony was canceled, and after receiving the emperor's edict, everyone was happy for this beautiful and brave little princess. The Han Dynasty finally ended the history of peace with the Huns, and since then, only the blood of men blooms on the battlefield, so why bother with the sorrow of daughters!

The veteran Li Guang did not return to Chang'an, he finally resigned from his position as the guard of Weiyang Palace, and guarded the northern frontier as the general of Xiaocai to lead the right Beiping Taishou to prevent the Huns.

Outside the south gate, the spring light has spread all over the land of the north, the grass color on the Mo gradually flashes green, just half a month, the solar terms have been different from the time of coming.

The person who saw him off drank the wine in his glass, and there was no need to say anything superfluous. The general with slightly frosty sideburns gestured, and his subordinates held a package, which he took and handed to the smiling young man in the spring breeze.

"Nothing else is expected to get into your eyes, this is a tiger hunted in Xishan a few days ago, this collar of fur is left for you and brought back to Chang'an, it can be regarded as a little heart of the old man."

Yuan Zhao didn't refuse, took it in his hand, and when he shook it open, it was a complete colorful tiger skin, thinking that the king of beasts must have been killed by the veteran arrow, so he had no injuries.

"How can the kid be so loved, the old general is so loved, and he is fortunate to have three lives!" Yuan Zhao has great respect for this unparalleled general from the bottom of his heart.

"That's it! Boy, don't come to this useless nonsense. Just remember it well and don't be so reckless in the future. ”

Yin Yin's meaning, his words are serious, and Li Guang sees him as a nephew.

Yuan Zhao laughed a few times, of course he knew what he was referring to.

That day, outside the northern city, Yuan Zhao in order to save Nie Yi, in a fit of anger, beat Zhang Tang and the Tingwei Mansion on their backs, and when the Tingwei Lord was dragged out of the carriage by his subordinates, Changle Hou had already saved people and left.

Zhang Tang, who was in untidy official clothes, had a blue nose and a swollen face, looked at his subordinates lying on the ground, and then looked at the thousands of border troops who were suppressing their excitement and standing by, trembling with anger and gritting his teeth secretly, wait! Yuan Zhao...... And you bastards. This account, after returning to Chang'an Mianjun, I will slowly settle it with you, don't even think about sparing any of it!

With great hatred, Zhang Tang, who had never suffered such a big loss, did not stop in Youbeiping, and even the princess did not go to see him, so he led the crowd to set off back to Chang'an overnight.

Li Guang, who rushed back later, learned the news that there was no way to save it. Seeing that his subordinates gloated and relieved themselves when they talked about it, he didn't punish a single person. Anyway, he has been unhappy with those cool officials for a long time, and this kid Yuan Zhao did it so simply, which suited his spleen and stomach. That's the difference between a politician and a general.

Of course, on the surface, you still have to beat him well, otherwise, if you are young and frivolous, you may not provoke much Lou Zi in the future!

"At a young age, you are a martial artist, and your achievements in the future are limitless. It's just that people's hearts are sinister, and after returning to Chang'an, we must be careful everywhere, those guys in the court are old foxes who eat people and don't spit out bones, and they must no longer act arbitrarily. ”

Seeing Yuan Zhao's disapproving look, Li Guang couldn't help but nag a few more words. Although he is bright and upright, he has no scheming, but in the palace of the guards, what kind of conspiracy and tricks have not been heard of!

Yuan Zhao saw a worried look in his eyes, and knew that he was not worried about his disobedience to the court captain after all. I couldn't bear to worry about him, so I quietly approached him and whispered a few words in his ear.

"What? You did it on purpose! This....... ”

The veteran was a little surprised at first when he heard him, but after listening to it, he thought about it for a while, and his brows finally relaxed.

"Hehe, the old general doesn't have to worry about me, the kid naturally knows it. However, the northern frontier has been troubled since then, and the next invasion of the Huns must be more and more frequent, so you should take care of yourself. ”

Li Guang secretly admired in his heart, this son is not only very brave and powerful, but also can think so rigorously and profoundly about the political strategy in his chest, what a talented genius! In time, he will be the pillar of the country.

"It turns out that you have a calculation in your heart, but you are anxious for your kid in vain. This time, your stage will be more vast, so let's show your skills. Hehe! As for the old man, there is no need to worry, he has fought with the Huns for most of his life, and life and death have long been out of his mind. The big deal is that the blood is spilled on the battlefield horse leather shroud, but that is a good destination for a general...... ”

The words are heroic and desolate, just like this Yan Zhao land, a hundred years of wind and bones.

With the princess's car, more than 300 horses left Youbeiping, wandered south, and gradually traveled far away, how many people came when they came, and how many people returned. It's just that on the way back, unlike the listlessness when he came, after this baptism, he can be regarded as a person who has really been on the battlefield, and has seen the real Hun iron cavalry, and has not flinched before thousands of troops, so everyone is interested.

"Hey! Liu Hao, I saw that your legs were trembling in front of the Huns that day, haha, it wouldn't be scared to pee your pants, right? ”

"Damn! You still say what about me, I see that you have tried to fight your horse and run away several times. Besides, I'm not afraid, I'm just nervous! ”

"Really? But I don't think you're good! Whoever is that, just say what about you, what are you hiding? Gongsun Rongnu, you said that you were standing behind the little marquis at that time, what are you shaking! Are you still afraid of having a little marquis in front?"

"What! I'm not even afraid, it's exciting! The little marquis was right in front of me, and I didn't see his movements clearly, and the Hun centurion had no ears and tongue, so he lay there and screamed like a pig. At that time, my eyes were wide open, and I couldn't see how he did it. ”

"Haha! Cao Xiang, you don't talk about others, I think you're really scared, right? At that time on the city wall, your face was pale. ”

Unexpectedly, Cao Xiang, who had been taunting others with his eyebrows, heard this, and nodded seriously, his expression became solemn.

"yes, at the time...... I was really scared. On the city wall, for the first time, I saw the majesty of the Huns riding thousands of horses, and said that it was false to say that I was not afraid. ”

There was a slight silence among the people of the Yulin Army, but in fact, this was also the truth in the hearts of all of them at that time.

"But then I wasn't so scared!" This handsome Cao family Qianli Ju has a hidden light in his eyes.

"Well, since the little marquis forced back the eight thousand Hun cavalry with three arrows, I have never been afraid!"

It was Zhang Qian who took over the conversation. Although Cao Xiang is also a marquis, of course everyone knows who the little marquis here is talking about.

"However, it is still a pity that we have not killed a single Hun with our own hands! It was the guys in the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, who seemed to have shot a few each. Cao Xiang looked regretful.

"Hey! Don't talk about those guys, look back, what has become of your spirit these days? Isn't it just that they have a nine-armed chain crossbow in their hands! If you want to borrow it, you won't give it. Hum! If that treasure is in the hands of our buddies, it is guaranteed to be more neat than they killed the Huns! Boss, you quickly think of a way, how to go to the little marquis to ask for a few handfuls, we are also angry! ”

When Cao Xiang heard his subordinates say this, his heart itched again, since he had seen the power of the crossbow, he had long wanted to ask Yuan Zhao for a few handfuls. It's just that when he mentioned it last time, Yuan Zhao told him that he only brought a dozen of them this time, just to experiment with the actual combat effect. If you go back and improve it, you can report to the imperial court for approval, and you can make a large number of equipment for the army, and when the time comes, you will definitely not be able to fall behind your Yulin Army.

If this kind of crossbow arrow becomes a sharp weapon in the Han army at that time, then the entire combat ability will be greatly improved! In the future, the cavalry will be equipped with a series of crossbows to fight, and the battlefield will be mighty, and it will surely shine!

Thinking of this, his heart was on fire. Looking at the situation, the large-scale war between Han and Hungary is about to begin in an all-round way, and it is at this time that the achievements will shine in history! It seems that after going back, we must find a way to break away from the Yulin Army and transfer to the Han cavalry.

In this team of more than 300 people who slowly traveled south, there were many people who had the same idea as Cao Xiang. At this time, although they did not know their future fate and future, this trip to the north did change the lives of many people.

Many years later, some historians made statistics that in the magnificent Han-Hungarian War in the past ten years, as well as in the previous battles to pacify the surrounding Siyi during the same period, a total of forty or fifty generals led the troops to fight alone and made great achievements. There are more than 20 people who range from the Hou to the Hou of 10,000 households due to merit. And all of them came from the team that followed Changle Hou Yuanzhao's first trip to the northern frontier!

Courage and strength are a magnetic field, and what kind of person you admire, you will unconsciously follow his direction. This sentence still makes a lot of sense.

Yuan Zhao didn't have time to pay attention to the thoughts of these people at this time. In addition to Princess Li'an's carriage in the team, there was also an extra carriage in the back, and it was Nie Yi who was lying in it to recuperate, and the radiant young man driving the carriage was none other than Guan Xi, who had taken off his military uniform.

Guan Xi finally got what he wanted, and after Yuan Zhao said a word in front of Li Guangmian when he was leaving, the veteran was eager to send these young juniors to learn more skills with him, and with a wave of his hand, he laughed and approved his request.

Guan Xi was in a good mood along the way, and volunteered to be Nie Yi's coachman, driving the carriage fast and steadily, Yuan Zhao changed Nie Yi's dressing in the carriage, and he didn't feel the bumps at all.

Nie Yi was seriously injured, and this was the second time he had been tortured to extract a confession. The guys in Tingwei's Mansion are all good at torturing people, and one night's kung fu made this slightly chubby middle-aged man almost lose half his life.

"Brother Yuan, don't worry, my body is very tough, this injury is okay. Hehe! ”

The fat man's heart is always very open-minded, although those wounds are hot and painful, and there is also discouragement and disappointment in the court, but he will not show it in front of the young man, because he has done enough for himself.

Withstood the threat of death by the Huns' swords, and gritted his teeth to resist the cruel torture of the Han cool officials, this determined descendant of the Nie clan, facing the young man in front of him, only gratitude and warmth remained in his heart.

"Brother Yuan, we will return to Chang'an in two days, will it really be okay over there in the Tingwei Mansion? Will the emperor be angry with you? You have to think about it, once you enter Chang'an, once there is a change, you can't regret it! ”

Although Yuan Zhao had relieved him and said that the incident would not cause trouble, after the death of Wang Hui and the lesson of his own false accusation, he had already developed a deep disappointment with the repeated injustice of the emperor and the imperial court. It's not a pity to die by himself, but if it affects the little marquis, he will fight with his life at any cost!

"Uncle Nie, don't think about it anymore, just recuperate with peace of mind. I said it's okay, it's going to be fine. When have you ever failed in doing something? Hehe! ”

Nie Yi nodded with relief and smiled, what the little marquis said was right, he never disappointed!

"Since you still call me Uncle Nie, then I will remind you one last time, don't be nagging, Brother Yuan, seeing that your influence is getting bigger and bigger day by day, it's time to build a force of your own, remember, the favor of the royal family, the friendship of the ministers, the relationship between all the political interests in the world is unreliable, and the one who can rely on the life-saving at the critical time is still the power of the lineage in his own hands!"

The middle-aged man who had gone through the vicissitudes of life showed a fine light in his eyes, looked at the young man opposite him who he had already regarded as a relative, and said thrilling words from the bottom of his heart.
