Chapter 5 Jun En (No. 5 Middle School) The large-scale situation of the Fenyang Army made Yang Guang feel confident that he had this team as his own security. He stopped staying in Yanmen, ordered the end of the northern patrol, and led the group.
Before I returned from my journey south, the once heroic emperor climbed to the top of Yanmen City and looked north, as if he was planning to write a poem. After staring at the heavy smoke and clouds outside the mountains for a long time, in the end he just stared for a long time.
He sighed and said nothing, not a single word.
"Perhaps Your Majesty is still upset about Khan Shibi's betrayal of the alliance!" The ministers guessed privately, and then they began to be cautious one by one. Thunder and rain are all gifts from the king. If anyone accidentally happens to bump into Thunder, it will be extremely unlucky.
This depressing feeling accompanied everyone as they walked through Xinkou and across the Lanhe River. It wasn't until they saw Fenyang Palace from a distance that everyone's hearts that were in their throats slowly returned to their stomachs.
Fenyang Palace was one of the palaces specially built for the Holy Emperor's Northern Tour. Although the surrounding area was desolate, it could not hide the splendor and magnificence of the dance pavilion and singing platform. For Yang Guang, who was known as a talented scholar, it was difficult to appreciate the magnificent palace and the wonderful scenery.
Music, singing and dancing are the two best means of relieving worries. Just when the ministers were secretly rejoicing that the dark clouds had dispersed, to everyone's surprise, Yang Guang ordered not to enter Fenyang Palace, but left a large army of troops to repair in Fenyang City. He only took five men with him.
Thousands of elite soldiers and dozens of civil and military ministers went to Bailu Mountain for autumn hunting two hundred miles away.
"I haven't been on a war horse for a long time, and I already have fat around my waist. If I don't get off the chariot and move, I'm afraid I'll have a camel's hump on my back. The scenery here is very good. Everyone, please stretch your muscles and take a look at me, Sui Dynasty.
Picturesque mountains and rivers!" Yang Guang said to the confused ministers
The ministers had no choice but to mount their horses and follow them far away from Fenyang. Only attentive people noticed that Yang Guang's horse was followed by a huge silver wolf at some point. Beside the wolf, there was another
A black-armored general who rides a black horse and holds a bow. He has a strong back and strong waist. He and his mount are two feet taller than the other guards following Yang Guang.
"It turns out that General Li is protecting him. No wonder His Majesty is so adventurous!" General Zhendian, who saw Xu Zi and Gan Luo and feared that Yang Guang would be assassinated, let out a long sigh, "General Li is known for being able to defeat Yang with a hundred steps. With him,
Now, let alone hurt His Majesty, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to even disturb you." With this thought in mind, he slowly relaxed his mind and slowly integrated his whole body into the boundless autumn scenery around him.
It's late autumn and early winter, and the wilderness in the north has become extremely empty. Looking into the distance, you can pass by the pale yellow weeds and bright red but sparse autumn leaves, until you can see that the end of the sky has been beaten into various colors by frost.
The fallen leaves are floating down in the blue sky, attracting people's attention like butterflies
Yang Guang's mount is an authentic Dawan horse. It runs like the wind on the grass. He changes the direction he wants, making it difficult for everyone to keep up. Less than half an hour later, except for dozens of imperial guards and Li Xu,
Except for the more than a hundred elite soldiers on the frontier who were carefully selected, the rest of the troops were left far behind behind the smoke.
"The horse under your crotch is Teller. He probably hasn't exerted his full strength yet. Let's run for a while to see whose horse has better foot power!" Yang Guang looked back at Li Xu, who was on full alert, and said with a smile. We haven't done this for a long time.
After playing so much, a flush appeared on his pale cheeks as thick as the fallen leaves floating in the sky, and his breathing was as heavy as the north wind in winter.
"Your Majesty's body is rich in gold!" A guard whispered to him before he finished speaking. Yang Guang's horse had already been swept over the sea of grass in front of him, while Li Xu's horse "turned" into a puff of black smoke. The black smoke
After that, there is a silver ganluo, jumping up and down, like a bolt of lightning piercing the night sky
I have to admit that Yang Guang once had very good riding skills. His body rose and fell with the saddle, as if he had no weight at all. Dawan Ma Ye ran away without any weight at all, refusing to slow down and wait for his companions behind him to hurry up.
, the sound of horse hooves behind became increasingly sparse, until only a few wisps were left.
Li Xu rode Heifeng and kept guarding Yang Guang behind him. He held a bow in one hand and the horse's reins in the other. He also held an eagle feather in the corner of his mouth. If something unexpected happened around him, he could put the arrow in his mouth to the bow in the shortest possible time.
On the arm, it was very hard to ride a horse with the attitude of slapping an arrow into the throat of an intruder. Several times Heifeng tried to pass in front of Yang Guang, but he held him tightly and was unable to show its true speed.
"Stop running, let's not tire out Gan Luo!" After galloping for three or five miles, Yang Guang was finally satisfied and tightened the horse's reins. He didn't notice the protest coming from Hei Feng's nostrils, but he was very concerned about Yin.
Can the wolf's physical strength keep up? "If you hadn't already agreed to the damn Ashina Bone Tolu, I really wanted to keep Gan Luo by my side. I've raised tigers and leopards before, but I've never seen anything like this."
Human beast!”
Silver Wolf Ganluo quickly flew out of the grass clippings brought up by the horse's hooves, and landed silently in front of Heifeng. This position happened to be where Yang Guang could see it. Looking back from his angle, it was easy to think that it was
Gan Luo is chasing his own footsteps
"I just want to see this guy fall in love with each other. I don't mean that national affairs are more important than my preferences!" Seeing the stiff look on Li Xu's face, Yang Guang didn't want to cause misunderstanding. He actually took the initiative to explain, "Look at this guy, he still knows how to fight for others' advantage."
My mount was frightened. Hey, it’s a horse and it’s naturally afraid of you!”
As if he understood the other party's language, Gan Luo stopped demonstrating towards Dawanma, turned around and ran a few steps away, jumped on a stone towering out of the grass, adjusted his breathing, and then looked up to the sky and let out a long roar, "Ouch -
――Woo――――”
"Ouch--woo--" the shrill howl of the wolf resounded through the wilderness. Now, not only was the Dawan horse disturbed, but Heifeng was also a little unbearable. He raised his front hooves high and neighed incessantly.
"Okay, okay, Gan Luo, stop calling Black Wind, stop, stop! Your Majesty, Your Majesty, be careful!" After a series of exclamations, Li Xu jumped off his mount in embarrassment, rushed forward, and stretched out his hand to die.
The reins of the Dawan horse were tightly tightened. The usually docile Dawan horse kicked up its hooves until its mouth was bleeding from the bite, and it had to stop its desperate struggle.
Yang Guang, who was tossed around like duckweed on the horse, was so frightened that his face turned pale, but there was no anger in his eyes. "Gan Luo, scream again, scream again, I like to hear you howl. I am the emperor and will not be beaten."
This beast fell to General Li, let me go and let me show you that I don't need anyone's help, and my riding skills are beyond your imagination!"
"Your Majesty, forgive me!" After the Dawan horse completely calmed down, Li Xu let go of the reins and bowed to salute.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!" The guards who hurriedly caught up were so frightened that they almost flew out of their wits. They formed a circle and trapped Yang Guang, Li Xu and Gan Luo firmly in the circle.
"Go away, go away, go away. I finally found some of the feelings I had back then!" Yang Guang waved his hand impatiently, "General Li, don't leave, you and Gan Luo, I'm not talking about you!" After that, he turned over and jumped.
Get off the horse, take off the bow and arrow from behind the saddle, and stride out of the circle.
The guards did not dare to stop them, so they had to form a half-circle from a distance. Yang Guang followed Yang Guang a few steps away, looked back, and scolded ungratefully, "What are you doing? You are surrounded so tightly, how can I?"
You may be able to catch prey, but you don’t know this area is called Bailu Mountain. The white deer have been scared away by you, so what’s the use of me taking the silver wolf?”
"If Your Majesty wants to shoot a deer, we have to let Gan Luo run farther away otherwise we will smell its scent. The deer will have disappeared long ago." Only then did Li Xu, who was sweating profusely, understand why Yang Guang suddenly wanted to go hunting. He had been so busy in the past few days.
I took the opportunity to summon Li Xu and stroked Ganluo. Every time I said goodbye, I was as reluctant to part with him as a child looking at a toy. Although he is not as superstitious as the Turks and regards Ganluo as a sacred object, he must also feel that the white wolf is in his heart.
It's a good omen. Today I saw a white deer with a mountain name on the map around me, so I deliberately brought the gray wolf here to answer the question.
Driving away the wolf and chasing the white deer, this is the pride that an emperor should have. However, when this kind of pride appeared on Yang Guang at this time, it seemed very uncoordinated. His arm holding the bow was still strong, but it would tremble slightly from time to time.
His riding skills are still outstanding, but because his life has been too comfortable, he has lost the ability of a rider to control the rhythm of his mount. Instead, he blindly accommodates his mount's instinct and even his feeling for hunting. He has completely gone wrong. Li Xu can be sure,
Although there may be many prey in the wilderness in front of him, if no one takes the initiative to drive the beast over, Yang Guang will not be able to track any of the prey.
"I forgot, Gan Luo is not a hound. No matter how courageous a deer is, he will have to flee in panic when he hears the howl of a wolf!" Yang Guang quickly understood that Li Xu's reminder was correct, walked up to Gan Luo, and patted him gently.
I patted it on the forehead, the expression on my face was full of love, "I don't want to drive it away. If it is not with me, hunting will be no fun."
"Your Majesty, I need to change to a walking bow. The riding bow in my hand is not as stable as the walking bow, and the walking bow has a far range!" Li Xu pondered for a moment, but did not correct Yang Guang's mistake. The deer's sense of smell is more sensitive than hearing, and the bloody blood on Gan Luo's body
The smell is extremely strong and can easily be heard and traced by prey.
He just wanted to remind the opponent to pay attention to the weapons in his hands. If he was shooting from behind, the advantage of riding a bow would not be fully utilized. After switching to a bow, he could easily shoot arrows to a distance of two hundred steps away. Maybe
The prey will not be disturbed by the wolf smell on Gan Luo's body, and the monarch and his ministers still have a chance to shoot.
"It's okay, I can shoot a hundred steps away with my riding bow. You guys don't surround me, spread out and drive all the nearby beasts over!" Yang Guang's understanding of hunting was completely different from Li Xu's, and he shook his head.
Shaking his head and shouting orders
"Yes!" Half of the guards left behind to continue to protect Yang Guang, while the other half galloped out to understand Yang Guang's meaning. Li Xu also turned around and waved lightly to the following protective cavalry further away.
He started, and then shouted: "Spread out and drive the prey over for Your Majesty!"
At a distance of hundreds of steps, the soldiers couldn't hear his shouts clearly, but the gesture was a common flag language used by the Sui army, "outflank!" Soon, the clever captain Zhang Jiang understood the general's meaning and quickly dispatched his men.
Divided into several small teams, shouting and disappearing above the autumn grass, under the long sky
