Chapter 531: Chapter
In the huge school field, dozens of Turkic cavalry dressed in Turkic clothes are galloping in the field, one person and two horses, even in the gallop, they can change horses and ride steadily.
Under an order, the bow was neatly opened and the arrows were shot, and the straw men in the distance were all hit by arrows.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Shaoyu's expression was a little serious, if the Turkic cavalry shot so accurately, how could they fight.
Beside Zhou Shaoyu, there was also a Turkic man in his thirties, this is the younger brother of the Turkic Khan, Ashina Association, if there is no accident, that is, this person who plotted to rebel in April of the following year and attacked Li Er's palace, but was beaten miserably and fled to the road and was killed.
"These elites are the personal guards of our Ashina clan, and they are called Attached." The association rate is slightly proud.
Ha, I see, no wonder it looks so much more violent, the co-author is an elite class, if everyone is so powerful, how could Datang defeat the Turks a few years ago.
"I Turks, everyone is a natural horse warrior, good at riding and shooting." The association rate is another way.
I don't have to say this, the Turks are known as the wolf army, because everyone can ride a horse and shoot arrows, they have strong mobility and are the best at fighting sports warfare, in the era of cold weapons, this thing is quite disgusting.
You can charge immediately, play cavalry assault with you, and you can fight guerrilla warfare with you when you're done, and you can shoot with a bow and a bow from afar, because of the living environment, everyone doesn't have to learn it, and you can naturally become a qualified warrior.
On the other hand, in the Tang Dynasty, every cavalry needs to be trained for a long time, and it may not be comparable to others, after all, people live on horseback when they are small.
Of course, this is an advantage of the Turks, and if there are many disadvantages, there are many.
The productivity of the Turks determines that the siege equipment and equipment technology will not be too perfect, and its strong mobility requires it not to carry too much bulky equipment, so it has always been their weakness to attack the city, and they will generally choose arrows to suppress, and then set up ladders to forcibly attack.
It's just that passive defense is not a matter of all things, not all places can have tall walls, and people's mobility is also very disgusting, many times if you want to form a siege, people have already run, this point needs to be noted.
And in terms of field warfare, for example, Li Er has the Xuanjia Army, relying on the heavy cavalry piled up with powerful resources, and the frontal collision, the Turkic cavalry is definitely not an opponent, but people will not be so stupid, if it is not for the necessary reason, the heavy cavalry will not rush up directly when they see you, so you have to pay attention to how to use this thing.
Again, there will definitely be no shortage of Turkic fierce generals, and few people may know their names, but they are indeed very martial arts, and they can be described as brave.
However, if we talk about strategists, on the whole, they lack cultural heritage, it is difficult to cultivate strategists, and they also lack sufficient strategic thinking.
And then most importantly, the Turkic system, which was not a large empire of consent, was composed of alliances of large and small tribes, and the Great Khan was generally the most powerful tribe in order to subdue the many other tribes to obey him.
If the Great Khan's headquarters is damaged on a large scale, many tribes will immediately jump out to resist the annexation, intending to become the new Khan, which is also the reason why all dynasties and dynasties have adopted strategies to win over the division and support the discord when dealing with the nomadic clans.
And the ordinary tribes, although they will respond to the call of the Great Khan, will not really do their best when fighting, because once the warriors of their own tribe suffer heavy casualties, other tribes will be greedily annexed, this is their rule, and the Great Khan will only turn a blind eye and will not call the shots.
So sometimes it seems that even if there are many people, because of the lack of unity, there will be a lot of opportunities to take advantage of.
In the Great Liang Dynasty, although there was not much Turkic information available, it was obvious that a powerful khan appeared in the Turks there, so he ordered all the tribes to jointly wave their troops to the south to plunder. However, it seems that it is impossible to be completely monolithic, and I believe that most of them are unconvinced.
However, now Zhou Shaoyu's shortcomings, in addition to various serious shortages, there is also a great shortage of horses, that is, there are dozens of horses, Tanzhou is not without horses, but basically from other states come from afar, the price is extremely high, several times over, not cost-effective at all.
The local horses in Tanzhou, most of them are short, not as tall as the horses in the north, although the local horses are much more mobile in the mountains and forests, but they really hit the north, which so many mountains and forests for you to drill.
But it's also far away, it's still very early to meet the Turks head-on, Zhou Shaoyu only has a lot of territory now, and it's still in the southernmost place, and the things in the north don't matter yet, and there is time to prepare.
"Association rate, what do you think of my Datang?" Zhou Shaoyu plays with taste.
"It's a place of abundance." The association rate answered very cleverly, if you don't think about it, you will think that this is a compliment, but Zhou Shaoyu knows that this person will rebel in a few months.
"Rich, tsk," Zhou Shaoyu patted the whip on his palm and said. "It's indeed rich, but not everyone can have ideas."
After that, he glanced at the association rate very meaningfully, and the latter was indifferent, but Zhou Shaoyu saw a drop of cold sweat on his forehead with sharp eyes, ha, sweating on a windy day in this late autumn season?
chuckled, turned over on the horse, stretched out his hand, and said, "Mei Niang, let's go." ”
"Whoa." Wu Meiniang smiled, raised her legs and stepped on the stirrup, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, the two of them exerted their strength and sat directly in front of Zhou Shaoyu. Aside from Zhou Shaoyu's sometimes domineering behavior, most of the time, Wu Meiniang still feels quite relaxed and happy.
"Shall we ......?" One of the attendants around the association made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Are you stupid?" The association rate said angrily. "If there is any substantial evidence, can you and I still stand here safely? It's nothing more than a beating, and if you put your hands together, wouldn't it be exposed! After being in Datang for so long, you haven't learned anything? If you do it in a hurry, you will definitely lose! ”
That being said, just now, the association rate was still quite intimidating.
The entourage gritted his teeth unwillingly, and when he saw this, he sighed and said, "Our Ashina is a clan of wolves, and wolves can lie in ambush for a long time in order to hunt, do you understand?" One day, we will return to the prairie and run freely! ”
Zhou Shaoyu didn't know all this, in fact, it didn't matter, after all, this was Li Er's business, and it had nothing to do with him, so Wu Meiniang asked very smartly: "I'm afraid that Ashina's association rate is different from each other." ”
"Oh? How can you tell? Zhou Shaoyu was interested.
"I didn't see anything, but I could tell a thing or two from the conversation." Wu Meiniang is not very easy to explain, it is more of a feeling.
"He's sweating." Zhou Shaoyu said with a smile. "Forehead, cold sweat, I see it."
Wu Meiniang covered her mouth, her eyes widened, doesn't that mean that she really has different intentions?
"Don't worry, he won't be able to do anything." Zhou Shaoyu patted Wu Meiniang's head and said. "Pay more attention in the future, observe for yourself, I still hope that you will grow into my right-hand man."
Wu Meiniang's eyes lit up, these days, this sentence was the most real, the most exciting for her, and she immediately flattered: "Oh, the little girl must try her best to study and use it for her son as soon as possible." ”
"Good job, but don't forget the premise." Zhou Shaoyu smiled.
What else can the premise be, it is almost to hand it over to Zhou Shaoyu wholeheartedly. is really domineering, Wu Meiniang pouted secretly, but she was not so repulsive as she was at the beginning, and she was used to it.
Chai Shao finally died, although in his life, there are always unsatisfactory performances, but it can also be regarded as a lifetime of Rong Ma, with Li Er's conquest of the Quartet, Ping Xue raised his father and son, broke Song King Kong, defeated Wang Shichong, captured Dou Jiande, and won the battle of Luoyang and Tiger Prison.
Externally, there is a big break Tuguhun, participated in the battle of Dingxiang, from the destruction of the Eastern Turks, all kinds of military exploits, as one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, Chai Shao can indeed afford it.
Li Er was very sad, as the years passed, the fierce generals and ministers around him at the beginning were either old or passed away, let's just say that this year, a few months earlier, Qin Qiong, who was also one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in the future, also died of illness, which made Li Er not sad.
Before he died, Chai Shaoyu had asked people to call Zhou Shaoyu, but Zhou Shaoyu didn't go in the end, what would he say, Zhou Shaoyu could guess, about the most, it was also for Zhou Shaoyu to continue to take care of Li Xiuning in the future, and his words were good, although Li Xiuning was still his wife in name, but in essence, he had already lived with Zhou Shaoyu, but he had never broken through that line.
Over the years, Chai Shao has also seen it, and he has not been obsessed with caring about these, in the last days, Li Xiuning can come back to take a look, and he has not had anything to do with Zhou Shaoyu before, he feels very good.
It's just that Zhou Shaoyu always felt awkward to be so entrusted in person, so he asked someone to pass the word back, only saying, 'I understand what you want to say, I don't need to ask, I will do it.' ’
After hearing that Chai Shao heard about it, he was relieved to leave. Zhou Shaoyu sighed, as a person who digs the foot of the wall, no matter how bad other people's feelings are, it is someone else's business, in the final analysis, Zhou Shaoyu is still a little indebted, and he is embarrassed to meet people.
As for Li Xiuning, the news of her return is only known to a very small number of people, and it is impossible to appear openly, but she still lives in Chaifu, and it is estimated that it will come out after the completion of the matter.
Not far from Chaifu, Zhou Shaoyu walked aimlessly and casually, this time she didn't bring Wu Meiniang with her, she had nothing to do with Chai Shao.
Don't look at Wu Meiniang's father, Wu Shi Tong, who is also the Duke of the State in the end, and also served as the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry and the Governor of Jingzhou, but in fact, the popularity is not good, so it is not that Wu Shi Tong can't be a man, but a problem of background.
Wu Shi Tong is a merchant family, in ancient times, Shinong industry and commerce, even if a merchant is rich, it is the most statusless existence, even if he abandons the merchant and defects to Li Yuan from Rong, with the support of a large amount of money from the martial family, Li Yuan has benefited a lot, but to be honest, there are still not many people who can afford it.
And compared with other heroes, Wu Shitong's greatest contribution is probably to fund Li Yuan's army.
In short, the relationship between the martial arts family and these noble heroes is just like that, there is no intersection, not to mention Wu Meiniang, who is just the second daughter of the martial family, so let her stay at home and rest.
Suddenly, a slightly larger carriage than usual drove over, directly blocking Zhou Shaoyu's way forward, and after a closer look, the groom was actually a woman, and the curtain was not opened, until a female voice came out, saying, "Come up and sit." ”
Zhou Shaoyu was stunned, this voice, Li Liqing? Suddenly his heart was empty, and he didn't bring a guard, his heart was really big, what if something happened.
"Princess, where are you going?" got into the carriage, because it was getting colder, the carriage was covered very tightly, which made the car smelly of women, Zhou Shaoyu lowered his head and didn't dare to look at it, and he didn't have anything to say.
"Could it be that Gongzi Zhou also called the third aunt like this?" Li Lizhen's voice was a little resentful.
"Well, there are, sometimes I call her Princess Pingyang." Zhou Shaoyu touched his nose and said embarrassedly.
Can this be the same, the latter is obviously for the sake of fun, while the former is serious.
Li Lizhen didn't want to talk about it, so as not to embarrass the two, but she changed her words and said: "The third aunt lives in Chai Mansion now, doesn't the son have any opinions?" ”
Zhou Shaoyu frowned, and then unfolded, if it were a different person, Zhou Shaoyu would definitely think that this was a provocation, but Li Lizhi should not be so, there was very little direct contact, and he didn't know much about it, but his reputation in the history books was too good, so Zhou Shaoyu didn't think much about it.
nodded, shook his head again, and said: "It's impossible to say that there is no opinion, everyone has a desire to be possessive, and I can't be an exception, but everyone is an independent individual, she has her own ideas, and her current actions are just putting aside all her previous identities, so that even if she is uncomfortable, she will still respect her practices." ”
"I see, that's it." Li Lizhi nodded and said, "The son is open-minded. ”
Aha, if you put it in ancient times, it's not bad, is it a patriarchal society, and there are a few people who really respect women so much.
"So, you'll still leave." Li Lizhi was very smart to hear something from these words.
"Uh......" Zhou Shaoyu didn't know how to answer, he would definitely leave if he left, but if Li Er knew about this matter, then his little life might not be so easy.
However, this hesitation, the result was obvious, the scene was silent for a while, Li Li's thoughts were complicated, it was not that she was reluctant to be a princess and her glory and wealth, but there might not be a result between her and Zhou Shaoyu, if she followed so unclearly, then what was the matter.
"The concubine suddenly felt unwell, and she couldn't entertain the prince anymore." Li Li suddenly gave an eviction order.
Zhou Shaoyu raised his head, then lightly, arched his hand, and then turned around and lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage, at this time Li Lizhen's voice came again, and said: "Where to go with the concubine, I hope the prince will make a decision earlier." ”
As soon as the words fell, the carriage started and left, Zhou Shaoyu smiled bitterly, this time, it was really tangled.
Shaking his head, if it weren't for the fact that Datang's wine and food were not quite appetizing, Zhou Shaoyu would have planned to go directly to the restaurant to have two drinks alone.
Obviously, it is rare to meet once, Zhou Shaoyu should take the initiative to persuade him, but the fact is that the rhythm is completely controlled by Li Liqing, how can I get it, it seems that next time I will take the initiative to ask for a meeting or invitation, it is better than dragging it out like this.
Ah, it's still four thousand together, and it's lazy to score two chapters.
