Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 568 Like a fairyland like Shura

Everyone is very excited, meeting such a good boss, joining such a strict and united military camp, when will it be too long if we don't work hard to make achievements?

Li Yun said with emotion: "My father-in-law's great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten! If my father-in-law hadn't organized the horse race meeting, I wouldn't even have the chance to enter the Shenji camp, let alone my marriage with Xiangyu."

Feng Shun said with a smile: "My lord appreciates it so much, let's practice hard, and in the future, I will follow my lord on the battlefield and fight the enemy bravely to repay my lord!"

"Yes, that's the reason!" Everyone nodded.

When Su Cheng came to the school grounds, both musketeers and cavalry had already assembled.

Following Su Cheng's order, a new day of practice began again.

Originally, Su Cheng thought that everyone would be slack and lazy after a day's rest, but he didn't expect that all the soldiers were full of fighting spirit and never slacked off.

Strict drills continued, and Su Cheng felt very relieved to see the new cavalrymen transforming little by little.

The first snow in Chang'an came quietly, Su Cheng left the barracks against the snow particles all over the sky, and the drill of Shenji Camp had stopped.

It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good year, but for ordinary people, this bitingly cold winter is really difficult.

In the palace, Li Shimin was walking in the snow. He didn't wear a cape or fur, and he only wore a coarse cotton jacket on his upper body.

Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others walked over in strides, and hurriedly said: "This snowy day, why isn't Your Majesty even wearing a cloak?"

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Seeing that it's snowing, I'll come out wearing this padded jacket presented by Su Chengjin to feel it. Not to mention, I can't feel the cold at all in this coarse cotton padded jacket!"

"Good stuff! White stacked flowers are really good things to keep out the cold! The auspicious snow is a sign of a good year, and I should be happy when it snows, but when I think that my countless people will still be frozen, I feel bad. "

Changsun Wuji said with relief: "Your Majesty, why should you blame yourself? The world is already in a prosperous age. In two years, the abundant grain seeds and white flowers will be popularized, and the world will no longer have hunger or cold. This is unprecedented in ancient times." In the prosperous age that has passed, the name of Your Majesty Mingjun will be glorious forever!"

Li Shimin looked up at the sky: "I don't know where Hou Junji's army has marched, but according to the itinerary, it should be almost to Gaochang Kingdom, right?"

Fang Xuanling nodded and said: "It should be almost time to arrive in Gaochang Kingdom, Your Majesty can rest assured that the soldiers who went out this time are all elite troops, and Duke Lu is good at fighting, and Concubine Xue has the courage of all men, and he will surely return victorious of!"

Li Shimin nodded and said: "I also know that I am just afraid that there are not enough seeds for the white stack of flowers!"

Su Cheng rode in front, followed by several carriages, and the creaking sound echoed in the alley.

When they arrived at the gate of the small courtyard, the guard stepped forward and knocked on the door, and a strange girl appeared behind the door.

Xue Xiaomei exclaimed in surprise: "Grandfather! Mother, the father-in-law is here!"

Su Cheng got off his horse and walked into the small courtyard, and all the guards behind got off their horses and picked up the carriage.

There are charcoal, food, bacon, prey, fruits and vegetables, silk cloth...

"How is the old lady?"

"Okay, okay, I've troubled you to come here, and you have brought so many things!" Mrs. Xue was moved.

Su Cheng said with a smile: "Rengui is away at war, and I will visit the old lady on his behalf. Before Rengui left, the old lady and the younger sister were the ones who were most worried about Rengui. This time the expedition was a bit sudden, and I felt very sorry."

"Actually, Rengui has long wanted to join the army. He was born as a general. It is his destiny to fight on the battlefield to revive his family business. He should thank the father-in-law for giving him the opportunity." Mrs. Xue comforted Su Cheng instead.

Xue Xiaomei asked: "Grandpa, has my brother already started fighting?"

Su Cheng smiled and said: "According to calculations, it should be almost to the border of Gaochang Kingdom, even if the war has not yet started, it will be soon."

Xue Xiaomei waved her small fists and said softly: "It's just a little Gaochang country, my brother will definitely beat Gaochang country to pieces!"

For this expedition, almost everyone is confident that they will win. After all, even the Eastern Turks of the Tang Dynasty were destroyed, let alone a small Gaochang country.

"I heard that white folds are very warm? Grandpa, is this true?" Madam Xue asked with concern.

Su Cheng nodded and said: "It's true, white flowers are very warm when sewn into clothes, and they can also be sewn into quilts. They are more useful than furs. If white flowers are planted everywhere in the Tang Dynasty, the people will never Don't be afraid of freezing!"

Mrs. Xue clasped her hands together and said, "Grandpa is really a man of immeasurable merit!"

Su Cheng smiled and said: "The soldiers who went out this time have made great contributions. Rengui's victory is not small, and it will be recorded in the history books in the future."

This is the first time that firearms have appeared on the battlefield, and of course there will be a big book in the history books.

After leaving Xue's house, Su Cheng believed in the rein, but his thoughts were wandering, wondering what happened to the soldiers of the Western Expedition?

In a vast wilderness, the murderous aura is soaring.

"preparation!"

"put!"

The sound of crackling muskets echoed across the wilderness.

The thick white smoke rising looked like a fairyland. However, this was not a fairyland. The screams in the distance reminded that this was the Shura field.

Hou Junji held up his binoculars and watched the enemy's charge with great interest.

For this army expedition, the emperor was most concerned about two things. One was the seeds of the white japonica, and the other was the effect of muskets on the battlefield.

He must make a complete report to His Majesty when he goes back, so he observed it very carefully.

Deputy General Su Bufang held up the binoculars and exclaimed: "The general has long heard that muskets are amazingly powerful, and seeing them today really lives up to their reputation!"

"This battle was beautifully fought!" Hou Junji held up his binoculars and exclaimed. Although he had a deep understanding of muskets, he couldn't help being excited when he really saw the power of muskets on the battlefield.

Why is the bow and arrow so much better when this thing hits people!

But there is still some regret, Hou Junji shook his head and said: "It's a pity, Su Cheng still hasn't solved the bayonet problem, otherwise, the commander can take Gaochang Kingdom with only [-] Musketeers!"

Su Bufang asked with some doubts: "Bayonet?"

Seeing that the battle situation was under control, Hou Junji explained with a smile: "A bayonet is attached to the front end of the musket, which can be used for long-distance shooting or close combat. The long-distance combat is a musket, and the close-combat is a long spear!"

Su Bufang couldn't help being stunned when he heard that, can he fight both far and close?

For this idea, he only had one thought, which is simply a fortress!

But when you think about it, it is very possible, because the musket is not like a bow and arrow, it is a long-range long-distance weapon, and you can put a gun head, bayonet or other things on the front end as a long-distance weapon.

It's totally doable!

Thinking of this, Su Bufang was also excited, looking forward to leading such an army in the future.
