Chapter 498 The cannon is roaring 3 It's three quarters.
Outside the city, on a wilderness at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, five thousand Shence forbidden troops formed a military formation, silent, waving flags, and murderous.
On the side of the military array, there is the team of the emperor and the Manchu civil and military ministers, and the two bright yellow canopies of the emperor and the prince are particularly eye-catching.
Li Yu looked a little surprised.
He really couldn't understand that the emperor suddenly led the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces to inspect the forbidden army at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain outside the city, and it is said that the emperor also invited the Hui prince to move to build and the Hui prince Ye Hu and his party to participate, so he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd.
Could it be that the emperor was so naïve that he relied on reviewing the forbidden army to show off the Tang Dynasty's military force to the Hui people, which is also a bit outrageous.
If the Hui people are so easily intimidated, then it is still the Hui people, and the 100,000 Hui Iron Cavalry Chen Bing Lingwu is the key to the problem.
The 50,000 Shence Army looks majestic, but in fact, how can it have too much combat effectiveness because the Shence Army is the transformation and reorganization of the Xiayi local army of Kong Sheng's lineage, and the crown prince Li Yu has always looked down on this forbidden army.
At least in Li Yu's opinion, the combat effectiveness of this forbidden army is less than that of his twelve guards in the East Palace.
Not long after, there was a faint roar of horses' hooves in the direction of Chang'an City, which immediately became deafening, and in the smoke and dust in the sky, Yidi Jian was wearing leather armor and holding a scimitar, and he ran majestically, leading five hundred cavalry to gallop in.
Although it was in the midst of galloping, the formation of the Hui cavalry was not chaotic at all, and the strictness of its military appearance and high morale opened the eyes of the Tang Dynasty ministers.
Li Yu secretly gasped.
This cavalry under the command of Yidi Jian is definitely the elite of the well-trained elites, and the characteristics of the Hui army are undoubtedly brave and good at fighting.
There are 5,000 forbidden troops on the Tang army's side, but if you really want to carry the 500 iron cavalry in front of you, the victory or defeat is really unknown.
At least, Li Yu believed that the 5,000 men and horses of the Shence Army alone would not be able to keep the 500 brave iron horsemen of Yidi Jian.
In terms of spirit, the gap between the Shence army and the Hui cavalry is quite large.
This shows the strength of the combat effectiveness of the Hui cavalry.
All the Tang magnates shook their heads secretly, if the Hui cavalry was like this, I am afraid that the Tang Dynasty military horses would be difficult to match.
In fact, this kind of thinking is also too much.
The cavalry brought out by Yidi Jian was originally his carefully trained henchmen, and it was the elite of the elite of the Hui cavalry, which did not represent the overall level of the Hui cavalry, but could only be said to represent the highest combat power of the Hui cavalry.
Moved to build a horse and whipped up, galloped to the front, and said proudly on the horse: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, summoning this prince here, is it not to let the forbidden army of the Tang Dynasty compete with the five hundred sons under my command?"
Li Heng's expression changed, today's arrangement actually did not have a design for a competition, but this relocation was too arrogant, his words and deeds revealed his contempt and humiliation for the Tang Dynasty, and the emperor really couldn't swallow this breath.
There's nothing going on here, and Yidi Jian actually took the initiative to launch a provocation.
Whether it is tolerable or unbearable, the emperor is calm and calm, and he can't hold it back.
Li Heng snorted angrily: "The Hui envoys should not be too arrogant in front of me, although the Hui cavalry is strong, but my Tang Erlang is not a wine bag and a rice bag, but I am worried that the two armies will inevitably have bloody casualties in the competition, which will hurt the peace of the two countries."
Yidi Jian laughed wildly, and then said loudly: "Your Majesty the Emperor, I am born on horseback, born as a warrior, why not be afraid of bloodshed and casualties Since Your Majesty is interested, then it is better to have a live competition, you and I will each send a hundred cavalry, fight on the spot, regardless of life and death, the one who grabs the other party's flag wins, what does Your Majesty want?"
The emperor's face was gloomy, and the corners of his mouth trembled with rage.
But today is no better than yesterday, and today's emperor already has more confidence and courage because of Kong Sheng's appearance and suggestions.
The emperor thought about it for a while, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Where is Kong Sheng?"
The emperor's shout was like a spring thunder on his tongue, and he used all his strength, and the Tang Dynasty ministers at the scene, including Li Yu, all sighed, and felt numb on his scalp, and he said in his heart Is the emperor crazy, and he was forced to be a little delirious by the Hui people, Kong Sheng has already died in Jiuquan, what is the use of you calling him A bitter smile passed through the corners of Li Yu's mouth, but his bitter smile had not completely dissipated, and suddenly there was a clear and tight sound of horses' hooves in his ears, and as he approached, a white shadow seemed to be soaring on the horizon, and was speeding towards the direction of the forbidden army.
There were one exclamation and shouting after another from the crowd, except that the forbidden army did not dare to act recklessly because of strict military discipline, and the crowd of Chang'an magnates became a pot of porridge.
More and more people saw it clearly, Kong Sheng rode a white horse to chase the wind, dressed in white clothes and bright armor, holding his signature Fang Tian painting halberd, looking heroic, galloping in an instant.
It turned out to be Kong Sheng Kong Sheng did not die Oh my God Could it be that this is a trick made by the emperor, the emperor and Kong Sheng teamed up to perform an incomprehensible play, the emperor hid Kong Shengxue until now, and took advantage of today's moment to let Kong Sheng appear on stage, and wanted to give the Hui people a dismount By this time, many people probably understood why the emperor was holding a so-called small military parade outside the city.
It turned out that there was Kong Sheng behind the scenes.
If that's the case, then it's understandable.
Except for the emperor, Li Yu's faces became very exciting, and many people's brains were blank, and it took a long time to come back to their senses.
Li Mi held Du Hongji's hand tightly and grabbed Du Hongji's hand painfully: "Old Du, isn't it wrong that Kong Sheng is alive in the old man's eyes?"
Du Hong sighed lightly, and looked at the emperor with a complicated expression: "Your Majesty obviously knows that Kong Sheng's appearance here must be Your Majesty's arrangement."
It seems, Brother Li, you and I have mistaken Your Majesty. ” Du Hongjian means that the emperor in front of him is no longer the emperor who was restless and weak in the past when Lingwu ascended the throne, but has become an emperor who has a good heart and is dictatorial.
The emperor has the spirit of the emperor, and he has the majesty that ordinary people and his subordinates cannot guess.
The crown prince Li Yu couldn't believe his eyes, but Kong Sheng's living white horse and a heavenly painting halberd galloped in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.
Yidi Jian didn't pay much attention to the movements on the Tang Dynasty's side, but just looked at Kong Sheng twice.
There was a young white-clothed general in the Tang army's camp, holding a strange weapon that only the Tang people liked to use, Fang Tian's painting halberd, and the Hui people didn't like this kind of long weapon, they preferred to use scimitars to slash and kill, and they were hearty and very happy.
Yidi Jian didn't know Kong Sheng, but Ye Hu did.
Ye Hu's face changed suddenly, and he grabbed Yidi Jian's arm and lowered his voice and said hurriedly: "Second brother, this person's name is Kong Sheng, the official residence of the Shence Army, the governor of Shenlongwei, and Chang'an Hou, is the first genius in the Tang Dynasty, both civil and military, and has the courage of ten thousand people, don't be an enemy with it" oshow7 t1706231537:
