The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 454 Yanyun Eighteen Riding
Yang Yong chased and killed Li Shimin, and saw that he was chasing a horse with a head and a tail. When Yang Yong was about to shoot Li Shimin off the horse, a general rushed out from the stabbing. He waved his Zhangba spear and shouted: "Son Yang Yong, don't hurt my lord, take your life!"

As soon as the words came, a gust of wind hit Yang Yong's lower abdomen.Yang Yong swung his gun out, and with a loud clang, he fired the gun away. At first glance, Yang Yong thought it was Zhang Fei coming, but after a closer look, he recognized that the coming general was the brave general Liu Heita.

This is Yang Yong's old opponent. During the battle with Hebei King Dou Jiande, Yang Yong and Li Jing designed to trap him and tens of thousands of soldiers into the Weijun city. They wanted to capture this general alive and take him as his arm. , killed a bloody road, and finally fell into the city and ran away.Afterwards, Dou Jiande was defeated by Yang Yong. He raised Dou Jiande's banner and continued to fight Yang Yong in Hebei and Shandong. I have no illusions about surrendering him.

Therefore, Yang Yong regarded Liu Heitai as his deadly enemy, and fought Liu Heitai with his horse and gun. Before the two generals could meet, a general rushed out from behind Yang Yong: "Brother-in-law, give this nigger to my younger brother!" Luo Shixin smashed his horse and danced his gun and went straight to Liu Heitai. The two were considered old rivals. They had fought against each other before the city of Mingzhou.

Yang Yong saw that Luo Shixin was more than enough to deal with Liu Heitai, so he continued to chase Li Shimin with his horse and spear.

Before chasing him far, Youyan King Luo Yi led his troops to intercept Yang Yong.Old Luo Yi has a silver beard fluttering, white hair and a childlike face, and a white horse with a long spear. If there is no beard, and the wrinkles on his face are removed, it will be Luo Cheng.

Therefore, you don’t need to sign up for Yang Yong to know who will come. He has always admired Yang Yong, the father and son of the Luo family. Therefore, Yang Yong raised his gun and clasped his fists in one hand and said: "If this king guessed correctly, the opposite is King Luo." Chitose?"

"Yes." Luo Yi raised his eyebrows and said angrily, "Son Yang Yong, the old man came to ask you, where are Cheng'er and Song'er now? Did you kill them?"

Yang Yong smiled slightly: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. Xiao Wang has always admired your father and son's bravery, so how could you harm me? The two Shaobao generals will not worry about eating and drinking in Linyi, and they are safe and sound. You can rest assured, my lord. Please forgive me for special occasions." You can’t dismount and salute.”

"Bah! Yang Yong, don't give this king less useless things. The old man asks you, what is the reason for killing and not killing my son, letting go and not letting go?"

"My lord, calm down, let Xiao Wang say a few words. The general protects the Lord, and the handsome bird ascends the high branch. Although the Li family father and son are more enlightened, they still have a grudge against your father and son. The reason for this does not need to be said by Xiao Wang, the lord naturally knows. Xiao Wang does not dare to boast of his virtues, but look, under Xiao Wang's rule, the government is well-organized and the people are harmonious, and the people are happy to work. Yinzi..."

"Hahaha..." Before Yang Yong finished speaking, Luo Yi laughed loudly, "Yang Yong, I think you are crazy, a remnant of the previous dynasty, a person who can't even keep the crown prince, How can you talk about hegemony? Luo has surrendered to your father, and now he has surrendered to the Li family and his son, but how can he surrender to a dissolute person? Stop talking nonsense, come on!"

As Luo Yi said, his eyes flashed fiercely, and the horse backed away. This action was surprising.Ordinarily, he should smash the horse and stab himself, how can he retreat, and who should he let?Are these words and deeds inconsistent with the legendary Luo family father and son?

While Yang Yong was hesitating, eighteen war horses flew out from Luo Yi's body. These eighteen horsemen were dressed differently, all of them were wearing black armor, black battle clothes, and barbarian war boots. The green-maned horse, and each of them has three weapons, a spear in the hand, a round moon scimitar in the right waist, a pot of wolf-toothed arrows in the left waist, and a carved bow behind him.
"Yanyun Eighteen Riders?" Yang Yong was startled, and such a concept flashed in his mind. Before time travel, Yang Yong had heard of this name in film and television novels, but he did not expect to meet him today.

Yang Yong guessed right, it was Luo Yi's ace troop among the cavalry - Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry.Although there are only eighteen cavalrymen in this cavalry, these eighteen were carefully selected by Luo Yi in the ten thousand horse army in his early years. Stunt skills, if you pull out one casually, one can be used as a hundred or even a thousand, and it can be used as a general.To put it bluntly, this cavalry is Luo Yi's special forces.

But Luo Yi never assigns them alone, because their greater value lies in the combination of 18 people, advancing together and retreating together, invincible.Charged into battle, these 18 people never leave Luo Yi's front and back, and only obey Luo Yi's orders. Even his sons Luo Cheng and Luo Song can't call any of them, so the Yanyun Eighteen Riders are actually Luo Yi's close bodyguard.

Back when Luo Yi was occupying You Yan, Luo Cheng was young and his career was not yet accomplished, so Luo Yi relied on this ace cavalry to help him gain a firm foothold.Because Youzhou, Yunzhou, Yanzhou and other places bordered the Turks, Luo Yi often fought with the Turks.The Turkic people are fierce and cruel, good at riding and shooting, coming and going like the wind, burning, killing and looting before running away, their methods are outrageous.

The Central Plains people have limited cavalry. Although Luo Yi claims to be invincible with sharp spears, he often pursues Turkic generals alone, and other infantry or ordinary cavalry are often left far away. Later, he felt alone and lonely, so he trained carefully. A team, inseparable from its side when going out, became Luo Yi's sharp-edged troop, leaving no dogs and dogs wherever it passed, killing Turkic cavalry so frightened that they did not dare to peep at Youyan.

Regardless of how powerful Yang Lin is, the backer king, Luo Yi is no match for him in singles, but Yang Lin dare not underestimate the 18-member cavalry team.

Later, in order to complete the great cause of unification, Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, accepted the suggestion of the backer king Yang Lin, and canonized Luo Yi as Youyan King (one said that he was Jingbianhou).This is a relatively independent prince. Luo Yi can recruit soldiers and train his own army on his own one-acre three-point land. Except for one or two officials appointed by the emperor, he can be conferred the title of prefectural and county officials, but these troops must hang the banner of the Great Sui Dynasty. However, the officials sealed by Luo Yi must also be organized according to the Sui Dynasty, which is equivalent to a country within a country, and they listen to the tune of the Sui Dynasty but not the propaganda.

That is to say, Yang Jian or Yang Guang can call Luo Yi to go out to fight and defend the frontier, but it is absolutely impossible to transfer him away from Youyan and cut off his military power.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, although Luo Yi was a few years old, there were not only Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry, but also two brave and invincible sons Luo Cheng and Luo Song, plus two-gun veteran Ding Yanping, general Shi Danai and Shi Dayi and others, of course Luo Yi refused to accept the Li family father and son, so the only option was to beat him.But Li Shimin had a better plan and let Li Yuanba surrender Luo Cheng, forcing Luo Yi to surrender.

Luo Yi saw that he was no match for the Li family father and son at all, he couldn't beat him again and again, and he couldn't give up his son. After thinking about it, he brought his two sons to command Yanyun Shibaqi and other subordinates and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. Youzhou, Yanzhou, and Yunzhou, a total of sixteen states and counties, were all replaced with the banner of the Tang Dynasty.

But Yang Yong in front of him hated him more than Li Shimin, and captured his two sons alive, how could Luo Yi love him?Seeing that Li Shimin was chased by Yang Yong to the sky and to the ground, Luo Yi came to rescue him. He didn't care about such great achievements, he mainly did it for his son.But Yang Yong wanted to force their father and son to surrender again, and Luo Yi became furious, so he released his trump card, Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry, to deal with Yang Yong.

Luo Yi had an illusion that if Yanyun Shibaqi could subdue Yang Yong, his two sons would be saved!
