The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 460 The Rise of Li Yuanji
Li Yuan nodded in agreement, and told his son a few words, Li Yuanji happily nodded his head to reassure his father, got on his horse for the second time, raised his spear, and rushed into the martial arts field.

When Tong Kebi saw the child going and coming back, he knew that Li Yuan had agreed with him to play the competition. He thought he had taken advantage of it. After asking Li Yuanji's name, Tong Kebi knew that this was Li Yuan's fourth son.

Tong Kebi was surprised, no wonder he was so heavy at such a young age, he turned out to be Li Yuan's fourth prince, considering the prestige of Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Yuanba and others, he was not surprised.He knew that Li Yuan's children were all heroes, but Li Yuanji in front of him really made him look down on him. Although the big gun in his hand was not bad, he was still a child of thirteen or fourteen after all, and Tong Kebi still didn't take him seriously. Son.

The two men fought on the spot without speculation, and the ax and lance were raised simultaneously, and the wind was blowing. The two horses went from hedging to circling.At this time, everyone in the martial arts field was shocked, including Li Yuan, who did not expect the fourth son's martial arts to be so strong.

Li Yuanji became more courageous as he fought.Tong Kebi was so angry that he screamed strangely. Originally, he thought that Li Yuanji could be defeated by three strikes, five divisions and two divisions, but after such a long time, he couldn't take down a little boy. In terms of strength, he could block Ding Yanping's double guns, but he couldn't defeat him. Li Yuanji's spear shook, and the two of them touched the weapons a few times. The axe collided with sparks and scattered, similar to forging iron, but Li Yuanji seemed to be fine, but Tong Kebi was numb from the shock, and his mouth was cracked. Unbearable, he knew that Li Yuanji's strength was not inferior to his own.

Tong Kebi felt that he was too useless. He was famous for his bravery in Turkic, but in Datang, he couldn't even win against a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child.The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the more angry he became, the more anxious he wished to chop Li Yuanji under the horse with an axe, and use all the abilities in his body. This has surpassed the scope of a martial arts competition and has become a desperate effort.But the more this happened, the more he couldn't control the big ax in his hand, and soon Tong Kebi broke into a sweat all over himself.

The most taboo in war is to be impatient and impetuous. You must concentrate and concentrate. At this time, Tong Kebi has violated this taboo.Originally, his martial arts, including his strength, were on par with Li Yuanji's, and the two of them fought fairly and peacefully, and it was hard to tell which was better for a while.But singled out this style of play is similar to playing chess, the mood determines success or failure.Tong Kebi was proud and underestimated the enemy at first, but later he was impatient and eager to win. At the beginning, he was already in the mood to lose, and later he lost everything, so he was destined to be the loser of this competition.After forty rounds, Tong Kebi was swept off the horse by Li Yuanji.

Fortunately, this guy was dressed in armor and had a good physique. He was just thrown and didn't suffer any injuries. After he got up from the ground, his face was flushed with embarrassment, and he didn't care about the etiquette. His subordinates rushed out of the martial arts field, and returned to Turkic in despair.

Li Yuanji looked at Tong Kebi's embarrassed figure, and immediately poked the big gun on the ground with a sense of accomplishment, and there was a bang of dirt and gravel, "Turkic Tartars, run slowly! If it wasn't for the order of the father, click on it!" So far, can you run? Count yourself lucky!"

Li Yuanji didn't lie, he didn't kill him this time, he just swept Tong Kebi off the horse, otherwise, if he changed from sweeping to stabbing, Tong Kebi would be killed, but this is what Li Yuan didn't like Allowed.

The current Li Yuanji is not what it used to be. Although he can't be compared with Li Yuanba in terms of bravery, he has already surpassed his two brothers Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin.

It turned out that since Li Shimin and Li Yuanba joined the army, Li Yuanji was very stimulated.Among Li Yuan's children, the eldest son Li Jiancheng and the second daughter Li Xiuning are very close, while the three brothers Li Shimin, Li Yuanba, and Li Yuanji are inseparable and inseparable. This may also be a matter of age.

After the two elder brothers joined the army, they left Bingzhou very quickly and led the army to attack Yang Yong. The eldest brother and second sister were not there, and he was the only one left in the palace. He was very annoyed.He really wanted to be like his elder brothers, galloping across the battlefield with his two elder brothers on horseback, but he knew that the fundamental reason why he was not able to join the army with his two elder brothers this time was not because he was young, but because he failed the Chai Chai in the martial arts assessment. The level between Shao and Li Shentong.Even Changsun Wuji and Li Xiaogong were gone, and he became more and more annoyed.

Since then, Li Yuanji has worked hard to practice martial arts hard, and spent a lot of money to invite several masters to teach him martial arts. He can also endure hardships. He insists on practicing martial arts from the second to the fifth every day. , Then practice horse lance, horseback riding and archery, nothing can be shaken.After half a year like this, Li Yuanji's martial arts improved by leaps and bounds, and his stature also grew.

Because of this, in today's martial arts arena, he was able to be defeated in a comparable manner, and he was proud in front of his father and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Li Yuanji really won, even Li Yuan couldn't believe it, his 13-year-old son was so promising, Chai Shen and all the civil and military officials also praised him, Li Yuanji became famous in the first battle!As soon as Li Yuan was happy, he immediately granted Li Yuanji the title of General Zuowei and Shangzhu Kingdom.

The previous king of Qi was just a hereditary title, but General Zuowei and Shangzhu Kingdom had military merit and military power. I have to go to court to accompany the king's companion.

After the matter was over, Li Yuan asked Chai Shen to go to the Western Turks to contact the second prince, Tong Fangbi.Speaking of marriage, Tong Fangbi was extremely happy when he heard that Li Yuan was willing to marry his daughter to him as his wife.But this matter was opposed by Khan Tong Gabi and the eldest prince Tong Kebi.

However, Tong Gabi was seriously ill in bed, and Tong Gabi’s cousin, Tong Zhan, firmly supported the marriage as an uncle. It turned out that Tong Jiabi and Tong Fangbi were not only uncles and nephews, but also two people in the same party. , Li Yuan married Princess Yihe, and the power struggle among the Turkic families also kicked off.

Li Yuan's goal was achieved. After appeasing the Western Turks, Li Shimin's memorial arrived a few days after his birthday.

Li Yuan took a look, and almost fainted from fright. His beloved daughter, Princess Pingyang, Li Xiuning, was captured alive by Yang Yong and imprisoned in Linyi. At the same time, two Shaobao of King Luo were also captured.In the memorial, Li Shimin also played the matter of Li Xiaogong's capture of Yang Yong's two beautiful wives alive, please make a decision.

This is called pressing the gourd and starting again. Li Yuan was in a state of confusion, so he hurriedly called civil and military officials to discuss countermeasures.

The result of the discussion was also a change of generals. Li Yuan drew up a decree and handed over the matter to his second son Li Shimin, and told him to save Princess Pingyang at all costs.But he didn't rush to send out this decree. After thinking it over and over again, Li Yuan issued another decree, asking Prince Li Jiancheng to leave half of the troops in Tongguan to defend the city, and hand it over to General You Yiwei Li Shentong and Zuo Pushe Li Wenjing to take full responsibility. Let him take Pei Ji with his right servant and his son-in-law Chai Shao, and lead an army of [-] people to lie down day and night, quietly go down the Yellow River, and march towards Hengshui and Dezhou.

Li Yuan hated Yang Yong to the core. This time he spent a lot of money and sent Li Jiancheng to the battlefield in Shandong, and then decided to go on a personal expedition. In the shortest possible time, he mobilized [-] troops from nearby states and counties, leaving Chai Shen in command. In Bingzhou, Li Yuan took the two-gun veteran Ding Yanping and his fourth son Li Yuanji to leave Bingzhou with [-] troops and attack Mingzhou, Hebei to the east. He planned to encircle Linyi with three armies and make Shandong Yang Yong's grave.

It wasn't until Li Yuan raised troops in Bingzhou that Li Shimin's decree was sent out, but this was a revised decree, which included Li Yuan Yujia's personal conquest and Li Jiancheng's plan to encircle and suppress Yang Yong with a three-way army, so After a delay, Li Shimin couldn't get his father's instructions for a long time.

By the time Li Shimin held this belated will in his hands, it was already half a month later.However, Li Shimin couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw this decree, and secretly thought, it's done, Yang Yong can't fly this time!
