Yang Jian really didn’t expect Lei Hu’s martial arts to be so awesome!
He was very clear about the strength of the middle-aged eunuch beside him, but Lei Hu took the slap with his palms forcefully and acted as if nothing happened. Such strength was beyond imagination.
He immediately wanted to recruit people. With the help of such a master, he would have more information and confidence to deal with the powerful families in the north.
To put it bluntly, this is a world where martial arts is the most important thing!
With powerful force, power, wealth and status are naturally at your fingertips!
Lei Hu frowned slightly, Yang Jian's suggestion was completely unreasonable.
Damn, do you know what kind of existence Wuhou is? How could he, an alien within the Sui Dynasty system and in charge of military and political power in the Taihu area and Qiantang County, agree to hang out with the emperor?
Besides, what does attacking Lingnan have to do with him?
Things in the territory under his jurisdiction have not been completely sorted out yet, so he will naturally not agree to Yang Jian's rude request.
"Your Majesty, no!"
Obviously, it was not necessary for Lei Hu to personally refute Yang Jian's reputation, and the civil and military officials present would not easily agree.
Are you kidding me? With Lei Hu's strength and previous record, if he really wants to participate in the battle to attack Lingnan, he may not be able to make much contribution.
If you have merit, you will be rewarded!
The title is nothing. Anyway, which of the important ministers in the court does not have the title of duke or marquis on his head?
Don’t have too many Founding County Dukes, Founding County Dukes, etc. It doesn’t matter if you have one more.
The key point is that Lei Hu's status is very special. As mentioned above, he is an outlier in the Sui Dynasty system. As long as the local military and political power grasps him, he can be regarded as a small prince without any problem.
After he has made great achievements, in addition to his title, will Leihu, the Marquis of Wu, have a larger territory?
Maybe Yang Jian didn't care. The south was seriously underdeveloped at this time. Even if Leihu was given one more county, it wouldn't put much pressure on Yang Jian's rule in the south.
But the court officials couldn't accept it.
To be able to reach the position of an important minister in the court, the family power behind each one is not small.
In particular, except for the Lingnan Song clan, the other three clans felt that they were much stronger than Wu Hou Leihu, and their role and accumulated contributions to the Sui Dynasty were even different. How could they allow Wu Hou to expand his independent territory again and again?
If Yang Jian really didn't care, he might as well give them the benefits, which might bring more benefits to the Sui Dynasty.
The ministers objected at the same time, and Yang Jian could not insist too much. Although he was very regretful, he did not say anything more. After the dynasty was dismissed, Lei Hu was allowed to leave, but Yang Jian still assigned him or the Wuhou territory no tasks.
Provide part of the military food and supplies for the army.
Lei Hu directly agreed to this, talked to Gao Ying, Yang Su and other high-level executives, and left without staying any longer.
The faint rejection and hatred of the surrounding civil and military officials, with Lei Hu's powerful spirit, how could he not sense it?
It is estimated that these guys did this deliberately to let Lei Hu know their attitude and not to interfere in the affairs of the court. Lei Hu secretly sneered with disdain. The uncle doesn't want to serve the prince yet.
I originally thought there would be some twists and turns, but I didn't expect that this trip to Jiankang turned out to be quite 'calm'. Yang Jian did not shout or kill him to keep him, or cancel his self-reliance.
The Yuwen Clan, the Dugu Clan, and other forces that had suffered heavy losses at his hands did not take the opportunity to take action. They just had a very bad attitude, full of hostility and no concealment. Obviously, they did not want to be "subjects in the same palace" with Lei Hu!
Seeing this, Lei Hu didn't care at all. These guys thought he would stay in the court, fight for power with them, or even become Yang Jian's pawn?
Think too much!
They successfully left Jiankang City, reunited with the three thousand guards who stayed outside the city, and returned directly to their own territory, not wanting to participate in the Sui army's next war.
On the way back, I learned from the commander of the personal guards that when he paid a visit to Yang Jian, the three thousand personal guards who stayed outside the city were also busy, and had a short but fierce competition with the elite Sui troops selected at the door.
I don't know who is trying to cause trouble secretly, trying to take advantage of Lei Hu's entry into Jiankang to find out the details of the three thousand personal guards, or is suspected of trying to gain face.
The result was that the majestic Sui Imperial Guards competed with the three thousand personal guards of Lei Hu, but they were so frightened that they ran away in panic. Not to mention suppressing the morale of the three thousand personal guards, their own morale was not frightened.
It's already pretty good.
What's the reason?
No matter how powerful the three thousand personal guards under Lei Hu are, they are not much stronger than the Sui army's left and right guards, right?
After all, the Imperial Guards on the left and right are the troops that guard the palace and the capital. It is obvious that the selection is strict and the combat effectiveness is strong. It is not easy to scare them into shame and lose their morale.
Regarding this, Lei Hu knew it well and was confident.
Who told his three thousand personal guards to all be successful in practicing iron cloth, and each one of them is a strong man with a thousand catties of strength?
With such conditions, Lei Hu naturally designed a corresponding battle mode for the three thousand personal guards.
Mud balls and stone balls weighing ten kilograms, twenty kilograms, thirty kilograms and fifty kilograms can be used as conventional weapons in the hands of the three thousand guards.
A ten-pound clay ball or stone ball can be thrown three to five miles by any guard!
Twenty or thirty kilograms of mud balls and stone balls can be thrown two or three miles without any problem!
It is not a problem to throw fifty kilograms of mud balls and stone balls one to two miles!
This is amazing. Throwing round mud balls and stone balls is much easier than shooting arrows with a bow, and the physical strength consumed is also very different. It is completely possible to achieve continuous throwing attacks in a short period of time.
, inflicting heavy damage to the charging enemy.
Especially the ten-pound clay balls and stone balls, which can be used by the left and right hands to fire the bow in succession, forming a storm-like rain of balls in a certain area. The power and lethality are absolutely terrifying.
What's even more astonishing is that the rain of balls created by Lei Hu's three thousand guards has a much wider range than ordinary military bows. Although it is not as powerful as a crossbow, it is still an extremely powerful attack method.
In addition to specially made clay balls and stones, Lei Hu's three thousand personal guards were also equipped with javelins of varying weights, which were equally powerful and lethal, and the area covered by the damage was amazing. Anyway, the soldiers on the left and right guards of the Sui Army had seen terrifyingly powerful weapons.
After the javelin rain, everyone's face turned earth-colored and they didn't even dare to take a breath.
The long, medium and short-range attack methods are enough, not to mention the terrifying melee king Mo Dao Team, as well as the conventional mixed formation of light cavalry and infantry, the combat effectiveness is quite amazing.
The three thousand personal guards are all experts in external skills. They may have just entered the ranks in the martial arts world. Even the most talented ones can barely reach the third-rate level. But in the army, they are all warriors, with infinite strength and amazing defense.
kind of existence.
Let alone the imperial guards on the left and right, even the elite private soldiers carefully cultivated by wealthy families would have to kneel down when facing the three thousand elites under Lei Hu.
It's not that aristocratic families or even Sui Emperor Yang Jian couldn't cultivate such warriors, but that they were reluctant to spend huge resources on training. In addition to money, food and materials, suitable external martial arts were also a roadblock that hindered the elites of the Sui Dynasty from further improving their combat power.
The iron cloth shirt external skill is nothing in Lei Hu's eyes. Even if it is popularized by the whole people, there will be no psychological burden at all. What needs to be considered is the huge resource consumption. As for having such external skill firmly in hand, there is no need.
This kind of external skill is easy to learn and master, and is very suitable for the cultivation of military officers and ordinary people at this time. As long as they are willing to work hard and have enough resources, there is no problem in practicing it to a level comparable to the second-rate masters in the world.
Of course, if you want to go further, you need the Breathing and Breathing Method in Lei Hu's hands. This can be regarded as a kind of alternative insurance. His strength has reached the second-rate level in the world, and he can get along no matter where he is. If he wants to further obtain Lei Hu's
The breathing method in Tiger's hands requires showing enough loyalty and merit.
Such external martial arts as this, the Golden Bell Shield, and the Thirteen Taibao horizontal training, etc., are all mature external martial arts training methods in later generations and in the world of Red Mansions. No need for brains, as long as you exercise in the correct way, you will definitely have obvious results.
Effectiveness.
The practice of Neijiaquan and Neigong's mind method has certain requirements for the knowledge and cultural level of the practitioners. To practice at a high level requires profound knowledge and experience as qualifications. In fact, it is not suitable for large-scale promotion.
In a world where the illiteracy rate reaches about 99%, trying to promote internal martial arts and internal skills is a complete fantasy, and in the end it all benefits those aristocratic families.
However, the external martial arts, which are simple and easy to practice and do not have many barriers to entry, are quite suitable for the military and the people under the rule to practice physical strengthening.
Not only do you have to practice to become famous, but it is also good to at least strengthen your body and reduce the chance of getting sick./
At present, under the rule of Lei Hu, the military has fully promoted the outer martial arts of Iron Bushan. The reason why they have not promoted all the other outer martial arts is that the time is too short and they do not want to distract the military officers.
Some people who are close to the people have also been taught. The time is too short to see anything at the moment. After a long time, the physical condition of the people under Lei Hu's rule will improve dramatically.
Maybe, over time, we can improve and optimize the genes of the people at the genetic level.
Lei Hu doesn't care, and even intends to promote the spread of such external martial arts, but the aristocratic families in various places are not so generous. They are eager to hold such a method that can enhance their strength tightly in their hands, and become a weapon for them to control the people and their customers.
.
Completely different ideas and concepts, as well as different ideas about treating the common people, destined Lei Hu and the so-called wealthy family to be in the same pot, and they would inevitably have conflicts or even fights in the future.
Again, Lei Hu doesn’t care!
Unless the powerful family of the Great Sui Dynasty took action at this time, without causing huge casualties and Lei Hu's subsequent revenge, completely destroying Lei Hu's foundation and not giving Lei Hu the slightest chance to turn around, otherwise, after a long time, he would be able to cultivate the Iron Clothes Shirt.
There are more and more soldiers and civilians who are successful in martial arts, forming a scale and climate that will make it impossible to completely suppress them in the future.
This is one of the main reasons why Lei Hu's army is so powerful!
