Having fainted three times since arriving here, Luo Yu was filled with resentment. It was none of his business that the man in black wanted to shoot the Li family's daughter. Why did he risk his life to save her? Is it just because she was a woman? Turn around.
After several thoughts, I realized that I would not stand idly by and do nothing in that situation. I would not do anything to save someone in that situation. Thinking of this, I no longer felt any resentment in my heart.
The moment I woke up, I was startled by the sight in front of me. Bright light filtered through the blue pointed tent. There were more than a dozen black-armored knights standing in a semicircle in this small space. The Li eldest daughter was sitting in his chair at the moment.
On the stool beside the bed, a pair of big eyes on her beautiful face stared at Luo Yu strangely. Seeing Luo Yu wake up, she quickly turned her head and lightly opened her red lips: "Young Master is awake, go and call the military doctor."
A knight accepted the promise and opened the tent and hurried away. A dozen other knights also looked at Luo Yu with strange eyes. They had never seen Luo Yu with short hair and such clothes. The general was surprised by him.
They had never seen a delicate, palm-sized box taken out of the pocket of his trousers. They didn't know what was in that big bag with two long bags.
What is this thing? The general refused to let him see it, saying it was the young master’s privacy. What kind of privacy does a half-year-old child have? However, this was a serious mistake in ending the battle. Fortunately, this boy was there, so the general escaped. That black man
The poison on the man's arrow sealed his throat with blood, and Jieli's follower died with just one breath. If this kid hadn't caused trouble, the consequences would have been disastrous.
When I saw the facial injuries of the black-clad shooter and the trauma on his body, I couldn't help but admire him. This kid was definitely not easy to get along with. A night killer was actually knocked unconscious by him with his hands and joints staggered. The killer's
The bridge of the nose was completely broken and pulled to one side. The brow bone between the eyes and the left eye were tightly stuck together and could no longer be separated. The face was covered in black and red filth. This unrecognizable face could be the killer's biological parents.
You can't even recognize it now.
Luo Yu, who was lying on the killer's body, was not much better. In addition to the joints of his hands being removed, the injuries on his forehead were also shocking. After the collision with the man in black, a large piece of skin above his eye sockets was gone, and he could vaguely see it.
Bones, face covered with blood and flesh foam
, there were light traces of tears on his cheeks, like evil spirits. Even if the boy fainted, his head was still pressed tightly against the bridge of the man in black's nose. When the brothers separated them, they held his arms.
Tears flowed out and I didn't even cry out in pain.
There are still some people in the army who respect the strong. This kind of life-threatening fighting style has been seen many times on the battlefield, but this boy is different. His age and clothes are definitely not that of a Sui soldier. He is only fourteen or fifteen years old.
, eighteen is the minimum age for soldiers. Since they are not in the army, how can they learn the most effective way to injure the enemy? The bridge of the human nose is very fragile. Breaking it will generally not cause death, but it will cause dizziness and continuous blows.
In the end, even the most powerful master will fall unconscious.
Luo Yu had a headache that was about to split open. He felt like he was lying on a soft and comfortable bed, covered with a thick quilt and without a pillow. There was something wrapped around his head, and the joints of his arms were numb.
I think she has already been picked up. The woman in front of me looks to be about seventeen or eighteen years old.
Wearing white silk, with long hair tied into a ponytail, she has handsome eyebrows, red lips and white teeth. She is both feminine and masculine. This appearance will definitely be a beauty pageant champion in later generations. Luo Yu thought that this should be the Li family.
She is a girl. I only heard her voice last night, but I didn't expect that she was born so beautiful.
"Who are you? Where are you?" Luo Yu suppressed his headache and asked softly: "Where is the man in black? General, are you okay?"
The female general smiled and said: "My name is Li Xiuning. Don't get too excited. The military doctor will be here soon. I will tell you the questions you want to know after the medicine is changed." She turned around and said to the standing knights: "You go first.
Go out, Zhao Kuangyin, you and Zhu Biao are waiting for orders outside the tent, while the rest of the army leaders go back to the camp to organize the army for training. In addition, ask Ashan to come over here to get a basin of hot water!" After saying this, he waved his hand.
A burly thirty-year-old sergeant with a one-inch short beard and another twenty-year-old pale-faced and beardless boy clasped their fists and saluted, "General, I will obey your order!" A dozen other people also clasped their fists and shouted softly: "No!
"Then they filed out. Except for the two people who stayed outside the tent, the other ten people went back to the camp. Now Luo Yu and Li Xiuning were the only ones left in the small tent, and it suddenly felt much more spacious.
Luo Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard the names of Zhao Kuangyin and Zhu Biao. How could these two people appear here? I don't remember these two names during the Daye period of the Sui Dynasty. Why did the great Song Taizu become the younger brother in the Li family? Could it be that they have the same name again?
Weird, Jie Li can make sense, after all, he is a figure of this era, but the place does not match, but Zhao and Zhu really can't think of any reason.
Li Xiuning is the eldest daughter of Li Yuan and the third youngest. Daye should only be eleven or twelve years old in the fifth year of his life. It is impossible for him to lead troops on an expedition, right? Where are the three brothers of the Li family? No matter what the historical data of later generations are, the deviation will not be so big. Could it be that Zhao Kuangyin and
Zhu Biao was not well-known and was not recorded in history books?
Without waiting for further thought, Zhao Kuangyin's voice came from outside the tent: "Ashan, Dr. Qiao, you are here. Come in quickly. The young master has been awake for a while." A child said: "Thank you, two military leaders, we will
Let’s go in first.” After saying that, he opened the tent curtain and walked in.
Luo Yu looked up and saw a thin old man in his fifties with a long beard carrying a medical box. Behind him was an eleven or twelve-year-old boy in Tsing Yi, holding a steaming copper basin in his hands.
There are two small white towels hanging on the edge of the copper basin. The two of them
Arriving in front of Li Xiuning, after saluting, Li Xiuning said: "Mr. Qiao, please trouble you, Shan'er, wait until Dr. Qiao has changed the medicine, and you can help the young master wipe his body!" Ashan said, he put the basin on the bedside table.
On the shelf, he turned around and helped Doctor Qiao.
Dr. Qiao came to Luo Yu, took his pulse, nodded and smiled: "General, the young master's health is no longer serious. He only needs to be nursed for two or three days to recover, but..." Li Xiuning asked: "It's just what?"
?”
Dr. Qiao paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about how to answer Li Xiuning. He touched his long beard with his right hand and said: "General, it is difficult for the injury on the young master's forehead to return to normal. This kind of impact injury damages the outer skin the most. It can only be healed after the scabs form.
Don't try to find a way to recover. I'm really ashamed..." He bowed his hands to Li Xiuning and said: "General, I'm going to prescribe the medicine first. The young master's injury still needs medicine to nurse him back to health."
Li Xiuning returned the courtesy and said: "Doctor Qiao, your medical skills are unparalleled in Chang'an. If you can't do anything, then young master..."
Dr. Qiao smiled bitterly and said: "The best in Chang'an? Let's not talk about Sun Simiao's old master. Even the younger generation Li Shizhen is not as old as this. Let's take good care of our health now. After the general returns to Chang'an, he can search for famous doctors and he will be able to find a solution.
.”
Li Xiuning said: "That's all we have now. Thank you for your hard work. Please give the prescription to Zhu Biao and let him cook it and send it over!"
After Dr. Qiao saluted, he went to write a prescription. Luo Yu heard another familiar name, Mr. Li Shizhen, the famous medical expert in the Ming Dynasty and the author of "Compendium of Materia Medica". This is incredible. If Zhao Kuangyin and Zhu Biao have the same name, it is possible that they have the same name.
It is impossible for Li Shizhen's name not to be recorded in history, whether it is unofficial history or official history.
, it was not mentioned during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Could it be that the history of this world is different from what I am familiar with? This thought flashed through my mind. It is not too important to hear the news that the scar on the forehead is difficult to recover. The teenager
Despite his age, he still has a chance to recover, not to mention that there are famous doctors like Sun Simiao and Li Shizhen here.
Li Xiuning saw Luo Yu standing there in shock, thinking that he had disfigured himself to save her, and felt regretful. After thinking about it, he said warmly: "Young master, you can leave to return to Chang'an tomorrow. Our Li family will definitely find a way to cure your injury!"
Luo Yu touched his bandaged head, smiled bitterly and said in an ancient tone: "General, this matter is not urgent. I believe that the general's family will spare no effort. I am Luo Yu, a Jiandong Taoist. My grandfather gave me the nickname Long."
Jiang, don’t call me young master anymore. I’ll tell the general in detail about my matters later when I have time.”
Li Xiuning blinked her big eyes and said nothing more. She ordered Shan'er to wipe Luo Yu's body and let Luo Yu have a good rest. Then he got up and hurried out of the tent.
Luo Yu was not in good spirits to begin with, and after talking so much, he was already drowsy. When Shan'er wiped him behind him, Zhu Biao had already boiled the medicine and sent it over. Shan'er served him and drank it.
, and fell asleep again.
After Li Xiuning explained the situation here to Li Yuan in a letter at home, he wrote a letter to his uncle Li Daozong, asking him to help find Taoist Sun Simiao and Li Shizhen, and then wrote a memorial to the court to arrest Jie Li.
Reporting a matter to the court is a necessary process. Of course, Luo Yu's matter does not need to appear in a formal memorial, so as not to create additional complications.
This cavalry is the foundation of the Li family. There are only 10,000 people. They are obviously members of the court, but how can the powerful family have no strength at this time? It took less than three years for Yang Guang to become a scholar, and he only had some influence in the civil service system.
Officials with a good background have not yet formed a force in the army, while the soldiers serving in the martial arts have almost become professional soldiers, and most of them are veterans. If emerging forces want to gain a foothold in such an army, it will not be possible all at once.
Arrived.
Therefore, this has resulted in the current situation where the civil lords are gradually declining and the military lords are solidifying themselves with troops. The memorial stated that the purpose of sending troops has been achieved and they can return to their base. Tubo Jieli has become a prisoner and will leave for Chang'an tomorrow to deliver orders.
The six scouts left together with three letters in their arms. They each had their own missions, which they would complete when they arrived in Chang'an. Li Xiuning's current concern was whether Luo Yu's injury could be healed as before, and what should he do if not? A ten
A child of several years old with scars all over his forehead will have a very difficult life in the future.
Everything in the military camp is complicated. Tomorrow, at the third watch of the day, the pots will be buried to make rice. The merits of the soldiers have to be reviewed. Lieutenant General Li Xiaogong is calculating the military merits with Sima. After completion, Li Xiuning and the supervisor Sima will jointly sign and submit to the court to describe the merits.
,Then
Waiting for a reply from the Ministry of War, those with meritorious service in the ninth rank will be granted the title of wife, and those in the sixth rank will be promoted to one level... After the Ministry of War approves, it will be reported to the cabinet. Hundreds of officials will discuss the rewards for those who have made meritorious service in this battle at the court meeting. This is not a short-term decision.
Things that can be done.
Li Xiuning knew that there were spies from the imperial court here, but she didn't care very much. Everything the Li family did was worthy of Yang Guang and the imperial court. There was nothing to hide. As for Luo Yu's affairs, she was not afraid of others knowing about her savior.
No matter how good he was, no one would blame him. Isn't that what Yang Guang did to Yang Su? More importantly, Luo Yu had no involvement in this mission. There was no need to report this kind of thing to Yang Guang.
No one like Sima has such thoughts.
As he got busy, it was almost dusk before he knew it. Li Xiuning put away his brush, stood up and stamped his numb feet. When he got excited, he picked up the silver gun on the weapon rack and practiced the Li family's marksmanship. This Li family's marksmanship is Li's.
Created by the ancestor of the family, Li Hu, it can be opened and closed, and the silver spear cannot splash water when turned. It has few opponents on the battlefield. Li Xiuning has practiced it since he was a child and has gradually become proficient.
I wiped my sweat, put away my weapons, folded the things written by the army and put them into envelopes. After sealing them, I called out to the tent: "Here comes someone." After a "No" at the door, the curtain opened, and there was a man in his thirties.
A 6-year-old bearded man walked in, clasping his fists and obeying the order.
When Li Xiuning saw the person coming, she hurriedly stepped forward to hold his hands and said with a smile: "Uncle Niu, why are you here on guard?" The man took back his hands and laughed and said: "Your father is worried and wants me to come and take a look! Come on!
No matter how hard you hurry, you're still late. I'm glad to hear that my virtuous niece has been captured alive!"
"Why is he worried? This is not the first time I have led troops, and this force is of no use. He was captured alive before he even fought." Li Xiuning asked the big man to sit down and poured him a cup of tea.
Then he said: "Uncle Niu, when did you arrive?"
This Uncle Niu is the famous Niu Jinda, named You Junda in "The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties". He was a famous general during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Together with Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde, Xu Maogong and other founding heroes of the Tang Dynasty, he created the prestigious "Zhenguan Dynasty".
During the prosperous period of "Governing", he was later granted the title of Duke of Langya County.
The history that Luo Yu knew was that at this time, Niu Jinda and others were still polishing their qualifications in the Sui officialdom. Later, due to the peasant uprising, they went to Wagangzhai, made incense and served as volunteers to seek the world. However, Li Mi planned to kill Zhai.
After the surrender, various reasons caused the Wagang Rebel Army to fall apart. In the end, they scattered their incense sticks and died in various places.
They died, retreated, and few had a good end. Niu Jinda, Cheng Yaojin, Xu Maogong and other friends left with their seals when Wang Shichong was about to be destroyed, and later surrendered to Li Tang and served under the then King of Qin Li Shimin.
, after the Xuanwumen Incident, he was gradually reused. After Taizong ascended the throne, he was granted the title of Duke of the country based on his meritorious service.
Niu Jinda is now working for the Li family. I don’t know where the other people are. Yuchi Jingde should still be blacksmithing now.
Niu Jinda took a sip of tea: "I just arrived and Zhu Biao told me everything. You are still too careless! Soldiers are crafty. I remember telling you these precautions! What happened on the battlefield?
It's all possible to happen, a single stream can take the life of an honorable person, Xiaogong is the same, as a veteran, you still make such a mistake, fortunately you are fine, otherwise they will die forever!"
The more Niu Jinda talked, the angrier he became. He slapped his hand on the desk. Without waiting for Li Xiuning to explain, he said softly: "How is the young man who saved you?"
Li Xiuning said coquettishly: "Uncle Niu, you watched me grow up. You taught me all my skills. Just forgive me. I promise it won't happen again."
Niu Jinda shook his head: "There is really nothing you can do. Has the assassin woke up? Leave it to me!" Li Xiuning said: "The military doctor has treated him, but he is not awake yet. I am afraid that his head was hit by Luo Yu, and Luo Yu also
The injury was serious. After diagnosis and treatment, the body is no longer serious, but the injury on the forehead is difficult to recover..." When he said this, his voice was low, and he felt sad.
Niu Jinda thought for a moment and said: "That young man's name is Luo Yu? He is not a member of the army. He became disabled to save you. I believe your father will have arrangements and will not be inconvenient to him. The court has not yet obtained the benefit.
News, you plan to release him and return to Chang'an to resume his life?"
Li Xiuning said: "Sima Superintendent of the Army has already written a letter of eight hundred miles to rush to Chang'an. At this time, I think we have arrived in Chang'an. This time we lost 330 people in the battle, and there were 500 or 600 people who were seriously injured who could not serve.
There are countless minor injuries. Our advantage is that they are familiar with the terrain than Jieli. We have 10,000 cavalry against their 6,000 elites, and we have the advantage of an ambush. We can still fight like this. The compensation for these sacrifices is
The placement of Jin He and the disabled people did not have the permission of the court. What other options could my father have? Seriously, Uncle Niu, Tubo will definitely be our powerful enemy in the future. Although Jieli was captured, his nephew Songtsen Gampo
He is also an outstanding figure of his generation. He will inherit Jieli's power and will definitely invade again after unifying the plateau. I don't believe that the Dukes of Gungun in the court cannot see this increasingly powerful enemy..."
Niu Jinda said happily: "We have made progress. This time we were prepared but not prepared. Moreover, with the advantages of troops and location, although we suffered a bit in the night battle, the casualty ratio was still a bit high. It seems that we need to strengthen night battles in the future."
Training." After a pause, he continued: "You are right, Yang Su has already expressed his intention to use troops against Tubo, but His Majesty seems to be unwilling to do so. He is a very independent person.
, Goryeo in the Northeast is his heartache. In order to keep the Kyushu Golden Ou intact, I believe he will be able to lead the Eastern Expedition in a short time. Recently, there have been eighteen sons, when the folk songs of Longting came out, making your Li family dare not move even a little bit, you
In this battle, Jie Li was captured alive, and the military merits have been achieved. The court will not bury the merits of the soldiers, but what about your merits? As the general, you take the lead in merit and have to reward it, but the current situation of your Li family..."
When Li Xiuning heard this, she felt sad. She was a soldier. After receiving the spy news from the court, she was ordered to go on the expedition. The tiger talisman was given by Yang Guang's cousin. At that time, her father thought that the little girl did not know the military at a young age and was afraid of losing money if she was defeated.
sky
Chao Yan wrote a letter to persuade him, but was detained again. No one in the civil or military dynasty made a sound. Yang Guang named himself General Polu, led his troops and troops from three counties in Hanzhong and went south to Jiandong. Only then did he capture Jie Li alive.
Current Headquarters Personnel
The soldiers of the three counties lost their generals, and the soldiers of the three counties also suffered many casualties, and the reward had to come from the court. The soldiers would not be grateful to Yang Guang, but what about the soldiers of the three counties? Even if the court rewarded him with a green onion, some people
In his eyes, he has more money than the Li family has.
What's more, does my father dare to reward the army lavishly? There are more than fifty commanders of various types in the army, the density of which has never been seen before. This time, the Li family really accompanied his wife and defeated the army. This move of borrowing a knife to kill is very skillful.
Have to accept it.
Seeing her sadness, Niu Jinda thought he understood the stakes, and said with relief: "A soldier's bounden duty is to obey orders. You did not do anything wrong this time. The first priority right now is to distribute more military merits to subordinates, especially the three counties."
We soldiers, we don’t care about the military exploits of Sima. You write a new one to state the merits of the soldiers in this battle. Although it seems to be trying to win people’s hearts, the court will erase most of your achievements and sell them to the Li family for a cheap price.
.”
After hearing this, Li Xiuning nodded and was about to write the memorial. Zhu Biao reported outside the tent that Luo Yu had woken up and had something to discuss with the general. Niu Jinda asked Li Xiuning to concentrate on writing the memorial while he went to see what was different about this desperate boy.
