Chapter 7: Li Yi's Arrow


Li Yi took a deep breath, held it for a while, and suddenly opened his mouth to exhale, "bark", and with a strong effort of his right hand, he really pulled the iron tire bow away.

He didn't deliberately aim, he just let go and shot an arrow, and then he didn't gasp for breath, and took another arrow from the hand of his own soldier and shot it.

These three arrows are like flowing clouds and water, without stopping.

The arrow hit the bull's-eye fifty paces away.

On the side, Li Daliang cheered loudly: "Okay, Li Yingjie has a son like this, although he dies, he has no regrets."

Li Yi, the governor of Pontus accepted you today. ” In fact, Li Daliang knew in his heart that the art of controlling arrows lies in the length of time after the bow is opened.

Li Yi opened the bow and shot immediately, which was a trick.

As for hitting a target at fifty paces, that's nothing.

But Li Yi can open three bows in a row, which is enough to be proud, especially when Li Mu is so old.

Li Mu listened to the great urgency, and stepped forward and said: "Li Dudu, my father is newly mourned, and my mother has repeatedly told my second brother that he is too young not to join the army. ” Li Daliang ignored Li Mu, stepped forward and patted Li Yi on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, you first go home with your brother to show your mother, and say that you are the personal soldier of the governor of Pontus, and when you become an adult, I will let you take over your father's military position and be a team leader." ” After speaking, he turned his head and said to Li Mu: "It's good to arrange it like this."

Li Mu knew that Li Daliang had good intentions, as a personal soldier around the governor of Liangzhou, he basically didn't have to go to the battlefield to kill when the whole army was annihilated, which could be regarded as taking care of the descendants of the heroes.

Seeing that Li Daliang had made up his mind, he had no choice but to do so.

So he clasped his fists and bowed and said, "Xie Dudu is compassionate." ” Li Daliang smiled and said: "There is still a month to go before the New Year, go back and prepare, and report to the Governor's Mansion after the New Year."

Tell your mother that Li Yingjie has followed me for many years, and he will naturally take care of his descendants, so go. ” Li Mu and Li Yi both bowed and retired.

Along the way, Li Yi thought about how to deal with his mother when he went home, and felt afraid.

Therefore, he kept begging Li Mu to talk to the Yang family for him.

Li Mu didn't blame Li Yi for joining the army, everyone has their own ambitions, so why bother to stop it. has been a brother with Li Yi for nine years, how could he not understand Li Yi's intentions It's just because Li Yi looks tall and too young, and he wanted to wait until he became an adult before begging his father to let Li Yi join the army.

But now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, it is useless to say more.

He agreed to Li Yi to say something for him.

I don't want to, go back home and talk to Yang about it.

Yang was not as angry as he imagined, but responded softly: "Mother knows." ” There was nothing more to say.

In the past few days, Yang has stopped crying, the dead have passed away, and the living still have to live.

Although she is a woman, after all, she has been married to Li Yingjie for nine years, and she knows that her own soldiers do not need to go into battle, so when she heard that Li Yi had been accepted as a personal soldier by Li Dudu, she put down a big stone in her heart.

With the governor taking care of him, he shouldn't need to worry too much about his son's future.

Therefore, from this day on, Yang's spirit has improved day by day.

Although there was still no smile on his face, his eyes were much brighter.

As the days passed, the Li family also returned to their normal life.

As the New Year approached, in addition to studying and practicing martial arts, the Li Mu brothers began to help their mother buy some New Year's goods and prepare for the New Year.

On the road, there are naughty children burning bamboo poles, and the sound of "pop, pop" is endless.

On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the family gathered around for dinner, and the upper seat still placed dishes and chopsticks for Li Yingjie.

After the meal, Yang did not directly clean up the dishes and chopsticks, "After the New Year, your brother is a year older, Yi'er, you are about to join the army, you must not just think about avenging your father, too reckless, don't let your mother worry at home." ” Li Yi replied respectfully: "Remember, child. ” Yang turned his head to Li Mu and said: "After Yi'er joined the army, only you and your mother were left in the family, and your mother was going to buy all your father's bounty and pension to buy land, and then rent it out, and it would be better to make more money." ” Li Mu said: "It's up to the mother." ” Yang nodded: "You are the eldest son, your father said when he was alive, now that Yi'er has gone to join the army, there will be silver and rewards every year, and the family's land will be left to you." ” Li Mu was moved in his heart: "Mother doesn't need to say it, my father is gone, the field is still left to my mother to support the elderly, and the child can find a way to make money in the future." ” Yang was also emotional, and she choked up: "Good boy, you are all good children." ” On the side, Li Yi persuaded: "Mother, don't cry, the child and the eldest brother will be filial to their mother in the future." ” Yang choked up even more, causing Li Mu and Li Yi to also have red eyes.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Yi went to the Governor's Mansion to be Li Daliang's personal soldier.

Fortunately, they are all in the same city, and they can be seen from time to time, and they are not so reluctant.

That day, when Li Mu accompanied Li Yi to the Governor's Mansion, he heard a piece of news.

At the end of last year, the imperial court had already issued an order that after the New Year, it would prepare to conquer Tuyuhun.

With Li Jing as the general manager of the Xihai Road march, the Jiedu Army, Hou Junji of the Military Department as the head of the Jishi Road March, Li Daozong, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, as the head of the Shanshan Road March, Li Daliang, the governor of Liangzhou, as the head of the March of the Last Road, Li Daoyan, the governor of Minzhou, as the head of the Chishui Road March, and Lizhou Thorn Shi Gao Yongsheng as the head of the Yanze Road March, and contacted the Turks and the soldiers and horses of the Khibi to attack Tuyuhun.

Hearing this news, Li Mu was even more relieved, how could such a formation be able to withstand a small Tuyuhun.

The younger brother is a pro-soldier, so there should be no danger. went home and told the news to Yang, and Yang was more relieved.

But the world is impermanent, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and bad.

It is said that blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular.

Just after the first month, there was an urgent military situation, and Tuyuhun Khan Fu Yun led an army of 50,000 to return to Liangzhou.

When the news spread throughout the city, the whole city was in chaos.

It was completely different from the former, only 3,000 people came last time, and the people in the city were just nervous, thinking that the Tang army would definitely win, but this time, it was an army of 50,000.

There are only 4,500 soldiers in the city, how can they resist the siege of 50,000 troops.

The Hu people of all ethnic groups in the city left Guzang City one after another, and even the Han people began to flee in the direction of Lingzhou in the east.

In just one day, there were seven or eight empty ten rooms in Guzang City, and most of the ones left behind were old and unable to walk, with nowhere to go, and the family house was difficult to leave.

As long as there is something to think of, who will stay in the city and wait to die You must know that when Tuyuhun invaded Shanzhou last year, he slaughtered two counties.

Li Daliang, the governor of Liangzhou, may have known that the city was inevitable, and understood that God had the virtue of a good life, so he did not order the city to be closed at the first time, and let the people flee, which can be regarded as a great virtue.

Li Mu was also persuading the Yang family to escape from Guzang City, "Mother, let's go, otherwise you won't be able to get out of the city if the city is closed." ” Yang shook his head, "Yi'er is still there, my mother can't leave him." ” Li Mu said: "Mother, don't worry, the child will stay, just look at the younger brother." ” Yang smiled bitterly: "Throw down the two sons, where can the mother go?"

Li Mu was a little anxious, and wanted to persuade again.

Yang stubbornly waved his hand, "Don't persuade me anymore, my mother won't go anywhere, my mother wants to watch you, if the city is broken, my mother will just go underground to see your father, it's just." ” As she spoke, Yang burst into tears, and she reached out and stroked Li Mu's face, "Mu'er, my mother knows that you already know that your mother is not your mother, right?"

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and said with tears in his eyes: "Raising kindness is more important than kissing kindness, and my mother is my mother." ” Yang sobbed: "Good boy.

If something really happens to your mother, you have to take care of your brother. ” Li Mu said: "Remember, child. ” "Go see your brother, tell him not to be brave for a while, and tell him not to let his mother worry at home."

Yang waved his hand weakly.

"Hey."

Li Mu saw that the Yang family had made up his mind, so he had no choice but to respond, turned around and went out.

When I came to the governor's mansion, there was already chaos in front of the door.

The families of officials, big and small, as well as all kinds of belongings, were being carried onto the carriage one by one. is very busy, how can there be that solemn image in the past.

Li Mu couldn't help but smile bitterly, even the officials had lost their confidence, and let their families flee for their lives, not to mention the people Finally found someone to hand the message in, and waited for nearly half an hour before Li Yi came out in a hurry.

"Second brother."

"Big brother."

"Why is Big Brother here?"

"Mother is not worried about you, let me tell you not to be reckless, remember that my mother and I are worried about you at home."

"Big brother, you are confused, why don't you escape from the city with your mother" "I persuaded me many times, but my mother said that you are here, and she will not leave."

"Big brother, I can't leave anymore, and I don't want to go, I want to kill the Tuyuhun thief and avenge my father.

But you should take your mother away, my Li family can't die.

After all, he was still a child, Li Yi cried.

Li Mu sighed: "Since you can't go, let's die together." ” Li Yi wanted to persuade him again, but Li Mu stopped him: "Don't say it, it's useless to tell me, you just need to remember that if you really want to go to the battlefield, you must not be reckless, and you can kill more thieves if you stay here." ” Li Yi choked up and said, "I know." ” At this time, a personal soldier in the palace ran out and shouted: "Li Yi, the governor has summoned you to go quickly." ” Li Yi responded, turned his head to Li Mu and said, "Big brother, I'm going, you take care of your mother and find a safe place to hide." ” Li Mu nodded: "Go ahead, take care of yourself." ” Even though the two brothers have a thousand words, they can only be separated without words.

When he returned home and told the Yang family about the meeting, Li Mu led the Yang family to the dry well in the backyard.

"Mother, the child and the second brother played peek-a-boo the year before last, and dug a hole in the well, which can accommodate one person, but the child was small at the time, so the hole was smaller, and I went down the well to dig a bigger one from today, and my mother went to prepare some dry food and drinking water, if it really came to the day of the city's break, it was good to go into the hole to hide."

Yang nodded, "Mother, let's prepare, Mu'er, you have to be careful." ” Li Mu then found a rope to go down the well to widen the hole, and found some wood to support, at the end of the day, it was also a lot bigger, although it was crowded, it could accommodate two people squatting.

The Li family is not a wealthy family, a small courtyard, and the people of Tuyuhun will not search too carefully if they want to come to Tuyuhun.

I thought that when it was really a last resort, it was better to squat than to die.

It can be regarded as leaving a way to live
