Chang'an Youth Tour

Ao Ji and Yan Long set up such a big gamble, which alarmed half of Annan's army.

Yan Long thought it was a joke, but when Ao Ji told him about his bet, he was also taken aback.

"Didn't you always want my horse? It's yours if you win."

Ao Ji's horse is one of the best in the entire capital, not to mention in the East Palace, and it is only slightly inferior to the Prince's horse. Yan Long is also a fighter, so there is no one who doesn't love horses. He was immediately moved and couldn't help saying: : "Then what do you want?"

"Nothing else, I want your Luo Yun bow."

"It's not easy. I have enough here, so I can take it if I want it."

"It's nothing else." Ao Ji looked into his eyes: "I want the one at your house, it's kept in the ancestral hall."

Yan Junyu was beside him, who was still in a daze, but when he heard this, he immediately understood who Yan Long was.

Among the eighteen generals in Lingyan Pavilion, there was a man named Yan who was not well-known in war, but he was a good organ. There were three gods in Taizong's army, the Rouge Horse, the Lianzhu Crossbow, and the Luoyun Bow.Two of them were made by him. It is said that he restored the divine arm bow of the Tang Dynasty, and then modified it, so it was always beneficial. With Taizong's southern expedition and northern war, he established a great reputation.

Although Yan Long is young and vigorous, he is not stupid: "I don't want to bet on this, my father knows, he must beat me to death."

"Then you bet me your own card."

Although the original bow of the Luoyun bow is enshrined in the ancestral hall of the Yan family, the technology of making bows and crossbows has been passed down from generation to generation by the descendants of the Yan family. .Yan Long's own picture was made long before going to southern Xinjiang.

"Okay, just bet." Yan Long was straightforward.

Yan Junyu saw that they had made an agreement, and there was no room for regret at all, so she couldn't help feeling a little worried. She was afraid that losing would be a trivial matter, but embarrassing Ao Ji would be a major issue. Besides, this person opened and shut his mouth as the East Palace, if he lost , Donggong lost face.

As soon as it was said to bet on this, the entire Annan Army became lively, and many lieutenants and generals who were training stopped on the school field. Needless to say, the soldiers onlookers were crowded with people, and the excitement was extraordinary.These veterans have all passed the battlefield, and their eyes are very sharp. Seeing his timid face, they want to attack him even more.They all yelled and booed wantonly, some provoked, some booed, and some laughed at him.

"You're so small, what do you know about fighting?" "You're blushing, don't you want to cry..." "Stop arguing, if you keep arguing, this young master will pee his pants, hahaha!"

Standing in the field, Yan Junyu could only feel the noise in his ears.These days, because of the matter of the white plum blossom, he was already in a state of uneasiness, and being quarreled like this made his mind even more messed up.But he was extremely stubborn in his bones, and being ridiculed by these soldiers, he developed a courage. This courage was like a sharp sword, which supported him to stand upright, and also cut off all the thoughts in his heart.

Anyway, just win.

Yan Long had already called all the troops, but Yu Yanran suddenly came up with an idea, saying: "Why are you all from the Annan Army, what if the water is released?"

He seemed to be reckless, but in fact there were subtleties in his roughness. When he said this, the veterans were furious: "It is your grandson who releases the water!" "I will be shot to death by random arrows if the water is released."

"Employees are not suspicious, doubters are not." Ao Ji came out to pretend to be a good person: "I believe they will go all out."

In the three exercises, Yan Long, Ao Ji, and Yu Yanran played with Yan Junyu in turn. The first one was naturally a disastrous defeat. Although Yan Junyu knew how to form formations, he was not familiar with the coordination between the arms, so changing formations He was not proficient, and was directly torn apart by Yan Long's cavalry, killing the archer cleanly. He wanted to surround him, but he was shot by the opponent's archer and beat him to death.

Ao Ji was the second one. Just as he was about to comfort him, Yan Junyu got on his horse and said, "Come again."

Ao Ji couldn't help laughing in his heart: I knew that this kid would forget everything when he was in war, so there is no need for comfort.

The second Yan Junyu gained experience and knew how to dispatch soldiers, but Ao Ji made a change. Originally, it was a long snake formation, but he suddenly changed into an anti-yan feather formation, with cavalry on both wings breaking through. Junyu only guarded the left wing, although he resisted for a while, he was still taken from the formation flag.

"Wait a minute." After losing the second round, Yan Junyu suddenly called a stop. His horse riding skills were not good at all. This time, he lost his helmet and armor, almost fell off the horse, and his helmet was gone. , when everyone saw him squatting down, they thought he was exhausted, and he didn't explain, just bowed his head to the ground, not knowing what to draw.

Ao Ji walked to the side and took a look. It turned out that all his paintings were formations. He has always been amazingly talented in fighting, but he has never had the opportunity to practice. He does not know how many military books he has memorized.He was still drawing the formations he had seen at first, and then the paintings became more and more chaotic. He was actually deducing the evolution of various formations and restraining each other. The speed was extremely fast, and he almost didn't need to think. He was completely relying on instinct reckoning.Rao even Ao Ji knew his talent all along, so he was also secretly startled.

However, the people around didn't know, they just thought he couldn't do it, and started to boo again, saying: "Should I fight or not? Waiting for so long."

Yan Junyu couldn't hear these voices at all, she just buried her head in calculations, and when everyone was getting impatient, she finally stood up.After squatting for too long, he staggered a bit when he got up, which caused a burst of laughter.

No one noticed that there was a little more faint light in his eyes. It was inconspicuous at first glance, but it looked like stars upon closer inspection.

"who is the next?"

Yu Yanran was originally greeting Lord Gaotang with those people who made a fuss, but for some reason, when she heard this, she instinctively shivered, and couldn't help recalling the painful memories of losing seven games in a row that night, and said honestly: " it's me."

Surprisingly, Yan Junyu still lost this time, and he lost very childishly. He changed a few formations and changed his style of play. Every time he almost succeeded, he was defeated by Yu Yanran. After a long time, he finally gave up .

Losing three battles in a row, these veterans were a little in awe at first, but now they quit, someone shouted: "Will I be able to win? I have never lost so many battles with Old General Ao in ten years."

"I'm sorry." Yan Junyu smiled and rolled his eyes. He was riding on a horse, his helmet fell off, his bun fell loose, and a lot of hair fell out. His face was that of a beautiful young man, who really didn't look like a general. : "If you fight for a while, you will win."

No one took his words seriously, not even Yan Long.Looking at it three times, he only thought that Ao Ji hadn't seen him for a few years and had learned to talk big. This handsome boy was just as the rumors said.So he got on his horse and said with a smile, "Hurry up and warm up the bowl of wine, and drink it after I win."

His posture is very chic, but when the two sides line up and fight, it's not like that at all. Even if he is as arrogant as him, he can feel that Yan Junyu's command is completely different from before. two people.

And it was less than an hour before their first match.

Shocked, he couldn't help but panic, and when he looked at the formation on the opposite side, it was unexpectedly neat.Since he has been in the army for many years, he disdains to use the soldiers he is used to for the sake of fairness. He chooses the soldiers from the right battalion who are not familiar with him. Said to be flexible.It stands to reason that Yan Junyu would only be jerkier than him, but when the forwards of the two sides met each other, he could feel the gap.

Those people are still on the opposite side, and the formation is still the same, but the adjustment speed and reaction speed of the formation have completely changed. It formed a human wall, and the spears stood up like hedgehogs. Yan Long led the cavalry to charge three or four times, but still could not find any flaws.

He reined in his horse, frowned, and looked at the phalanx ahead.

Soldiers are still those soldiers, and soldiers still react at that speed.His cavalry cooperated with the archers, while harassing, they seized the opportunity to shoot arrows, but these shield soldiers were able to put away their spears every time after the cavalry harassed them, and formed a turtle shell to block the arrows falling from the sky rain.The movements are so neat, obviously under the command of the master general.

Since the reaction speed of the soldiers has not changed, it is the general who has changed.

He stared at the handsome young man on the horse in the middle of the phalanx. He was still fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a scarlet brocade jacket, with messy hair, and his riding posture was like an amateur.Yan Long was startled and doubtful, not daring to confirm.

Although the current fight is not comparable to the battlefield, it is also chaotic and tense enough.Yan Junyu wanted to make every order so timely, unless he had already calculated the delay time of the order when he issued the order.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, every time Yan Long changes formation, he has to adjust his command, the fastest is to issue an order when Yan Long changes formation, and at this time, it is too late for those unfamiliar soldiers to react.Among other things, it was Yan Long's previous charge. If he gave an order while he was charging, the cavalry would rush in front of him before he finished speaking. Once the formation collapsed, the general would issue another order, and the soldiers would have no time to respond.

Unless he had already guessed that he was going to the left wing before Yan Long rushed to kill, and let the soldiers on the left wing gather in advance after they broke up, in order to form the current phalanx.

Yan Long was frightened by his own guess.

The battlefield is a place that changes rapidly. I have experienced five years in southern Xinjiang. How could this boy who talks about wars on paper guess his every move in advance.Even if he can guess, there is no time for him to guess.

But he didn't have time to analyze it any further.

Because Yan Junyu's shield soldiers dispersed quickly, all infantry holding shields stacked in three rows in front, advancing step by step with spears, protecting the archers behind, even the cavalry only used bows and arrows.Advance about three zhang, it is a round of shooting, the rain of arrows is like overwhelming, it is almost inevitable.The cavalry that Yan Long has always been good at is useless at this time. He wants to learn from Junyu and use shields to defend, but he can't gather together. The opponent's infantry is like a mountain, pushing them over. They fell one by one and had to admit defeat.

No one expected this ending, even Yan Junyu's own soldiers were very surprised. The cavalry in the Great Zhou army has always been excellent. Death Rider's.They were stunned for a while before cheering.

"How is it?" Yu Yanran was the happiest, rushed over and hooked Yan Long's shoulder: "I told you that we are good at Xiaoyan, but you don't believe it, you will suffer."

Yan Long's face was dark and he was very unconvinced.

"I can only use infantry, and it's not a big deal. This is because the school field is too small. How can he beat me on the battlefield?"

"You are a dead duck!" Yu Yanran ignored him, Yan Junyu was already surrounded by soldiers, he rode over with a smile, Yan Long saw him coming, and was about to walk away, only to hear him He smiled and asked, "Where's your warm wine? Why don't you give it to me?"

It turned out that he also knew that Yan Long used the allusion of warming wine and killing Huaxiong to laugh at him, but he didn't refute at that time, and laughed back when he won.

"Alcohol is a trivial matter." Yu Yanran smiled and said, "Hand over Luo Yungong quickly."

Yan Long was very unconvinced: "Didn't you mean the entire Annan Army's young generals? You want a bow right now?"

His words reminded the surrounding onlookers, and soon another young general stood up.Yan Long lost, ordinary people naturally dare not play lightly, all the powerful characters in the left camp came, Yan Junyu was not afraid, he would not refuse anyone who came, and even won three games in a row.Originally, there were people who thought he was lucky, mocking and joking beside him, but after the third big victory, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.

"How to say?" Yu Yanran is the most capable of pretending to be powerful: "You young people in the Annan Army are not good. If we were in Yanbei, we wouldn't lose so badly."

If it had been before, Yan Long would have scolded him for farting, but after watching him three times, he didn't say a word, his face sank like water, and he didn't even reply to these words.

Yan Long could bear it, but the people next to him couldn't bear it, they scolded all day long, someone had already sent rescuers, but Yu Yanran was still provoking, only someone said: "Don't be arrogant, Cheng Song is here."

Everyone moved away one after another, and saw a young general come out, also about 24 or [-] years old, but he looked much more stable than Yan Long, with a dark complexion, a strong figure, a thick and handsome face, ordinary clothes, and a very kind person look.

Yu Yanran had heard earlier that the Annan army was divided into the left battalion and the right battalion. In the left battalion there were many descendants of aristocratic families, and they were all descendants of princes like Yan Long. They also competed with each other on the battlefield, but fortunately they all fought bravely, so Old General Ao didn't argue with each other, just let them compete.

Everyone else is fine, but this is Cheng Song, who was born in a peasant family and has never read a lot of words, let alone learned the art of war since childhood.Yan Long always looked down on him, and said coldly: "Are you also here to die?"

Cheng Song was generous, and said with a smile: "I heard that someone challenged the young general of the Annan Army, who is it?"

He asked Ao Ji and Yu Yanran, but who knew that the one who stood up was a young man who was half a head shorter than them. He was dressed in a brocade robe and his hair was disheveled, but his eyes were very bright. He replied, "It's me."

Cheng Song has a honest and honest personality, so he didn't say much: "Then ask for advice."

The two got on the horse, Yan Junyu's martial arts foundation was poor, and after fighting all afternoon, he staggered a little when he got on the horse, Yu Yanran couldn't help being a little worried, he didn't say anything about his worry, and laughed at Ao Ji: "Your son can't even ride a horse It's stable, let him fight?"

"You broke your leg while riding a horse back then, and no one stopped you." Ao Ji said coldly.

Yu Yanran felt ashamed, laughed, and continued to watch them fight.

Yan Junyu is not a person who judges people by appearance, and he is also prepared, who knows that he will feel the pressure as soon as he confronts Cheng Song.It's not that the other party is so powerful, but that he is also testing.The people he had beaten before were all young and energetic, and they wished they could beat him to death, but this person was terribly calm.

He remembered that his father said when he was a child that there are thousands of kinds of people in this world, and many personalities restrain each other, and this restraint will also be reflected in the command.Some people with outstanding talents are not afraid of anyone, but they are afraid of those who are as stable as a rock. Zhuge Duozhi is close to a monster, but in the end he is defeated by Sima Yi. .

With such thoughts in mind, he also restrained his edge, and tested each other for a few rounds with this person, but they were all on the verge of breaking up. On the one hand, he did not want to expose his own strength, but on the other hand, he was testing the other party's command style and speculating on the other party's weaknesses.

They were confident, but the people around couldn't stand it anymore, and they all shouted, "Is it still a fight? Is this a war or a dance?"

Yan Junyu was tired all afternoon, and he couldn't hold on anymore. When he was quarreled again, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy, and his whole body fell a little bit. Yu quickly said: "No need."

But the other party has clearly seen it.

In the next round of charge, Yan Junyu ordered to charge. The shield soldier's style of attack could only be used against Yan Long's sharp-edged style of play. This man's cavalry was stable and could only fight head-on. Both teams went all out.The cavalry of the Annan army were all good horses. Dozens of cavalry collided head-on, swords against swords, guns against guns. Even though they were wrapped in cloth strips, many people still fell off their horses.Yan Junyu's legs clamped tightly to the horse's belly, his thighs trembled uncontrollably due to loss of strength, the sound of fighting was all around his ears, he clenched his hands tightly, and felt that his blood was about to boil.

At this moment, the red and rouge horse rushed in front of him.

The moment he passed by, he only heard the general named Cheng Song whisper: "Offended!"

Before he had time to dodge, a huge force came from his shoulders, and the next moment his whole body was already flying in the air, like a kite with a broken string, he fell straight out.

There was an uproar in the school grounds. Amid the chaos, Ao Ji and Yu Yanran both flew up. Ao Ji took a quick step, caught him lightly, and landed steadily. The bones were smashed to pieces.

The main general was directly knocked into the air, and the fighting stopped immediately. Cheng Song held a wooden spear in his hand, stopped his horse, and said, "Accept."

Yan Junyu knew that he was determined to fly himself before he sprinted, otherwise he would have replaced a bare gun barrel, and the other cavalry just covered the gun head, this manpower is infinite, if he used a gun, he would definitely be stabbed right through .

Annan soldiers booed.

"How is it? Have you tasted the strength of Annan's army?" "Are you convinced of the defeat?"

Yan Junyu rubbed his shoulders and said with a smile, "Who said I lost."

"If the main general is killed in battle and the flag is not guaranteed, is it considered a loss?"

"The main general is dead, but the formation flag is still there." Yan Junyu smiled and pointed to his side general. The captain also lowered his head in doubt, and saw a small formation flag stuck on the iron armor around his waist. .

Everyone was in an uproar, but after all, the rule was that either more than two-thirds of the soldiers died in battle, or the formation flag was captured.So it cannot be said that he lost.That Cheng Song was also generous, and said with a smile: "You are all killed, no one is commanding, and your troops will also lose."

"What if I knew in advance that I was going to die in battle and left a last word?"

"If you can defeat my soldiers with a single last word, of course I will admit defeat. I'm afraid you are not Zhuge Liang, and you don't have a good plan."

"Then come here."

The general on Yan Junyu's side thought that the last words were for him, so he hurried over, but Yan Junyu pointed at Cheng Song and said, "I'm talking about you. This sentence can't be spread, I only tell you."

Although everyone was puzzled, seeing how many times he won, they also knew that he was a bit powerful.Seeing that he was close to Cheng Song's ear, he didn't know what he said, but Cheng Song's face became more and more serious, and suddenly he calmed down, took a look at Yan Junyu, and said deeply: "I have been in the army for several years, and I have never done a single job. Defeated. I didn't expect you to break through the pass, so I admit defeat."

There was an uproar.Many people asked Cheng Song what that sentence was, but he just shook his head and didn't say anything. Some mature people saw the clue and said, "Don't ask, it must be some fatal weakness. If you ask, it will spread to the rebels. It's not for fun!" Amidst the commotion, everyone looked at Yan Junyu in awe, only Yan Long still refused to accept it, and said, "Isn't there another Chen Tong in your Youying who can also fight?"

"Chen Tong went to the banquet with General Ao and hasn't come back yet." Cheng Song said honestly: "I'll be honest, if he comes, he will lose."

He has always sought truth from facts, and everyone can only admire him after hearing this.Yu Yanran was the first to jump out, and stretched out her hand towards him with a smile: "Little Yanlong, don't struggle, hand over Luo Yungong quickly."

Although Yan Long was reluctant, he still kept his word and obediently asked the deputy general to fetch Luo Yungong and hand it over to him. Yu Yanran was very proud: "Hahaha, I said you Nanzhao barbarians are not good. It’s okay, I’m willing to bet and admit defeat, hahaha!”

Seeing that he was too complacent, Ao Ji beat him twice. Although the soldiers were very unhappy when they heard this, there was nothing they could do since Yan Junyu was on their side.Everyone played on the school grounds for a while, and saw a soldier coming over to pass a message: "General Ao invites General Yu, Young Master Ao, and Mr. Yan to have dinner."

Yu Yanran naturally went happily, Yan Junyu was clever, secretly looked at Ao Ji's face, saw that his face was as cold as ice, but still sharp, looked back, saw Yan Junyu looked at herself, and smiled.

"Is Xiaoyan hungry?"

In fact, Yan Junyu was so hungry that his chest was stuck to his back, but he had always been kind to others, and he would treat others ten times better, and he would not hesitate to go through fire or water.He knew that Ao Ji had a bad relationship with Old General Ao, so he didn't want to go, so he made up his mind, shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry at all."

Ao Ji didn't know whether to believe it or not, and said lightly: "Then you can go shopping with me, there is a mountain near here, I used to come here to play when I was young."

"Don't eat a good dinner, go climbing, I won't go, young master." Yu Yanran said with a smile, grabbed Yan Long, and took him to the banquet with Old General Ao.
