Late Tang

(Thanks to Qing Mochen for the reward, the first update will be delivered early in the morning!)

Princess Xihe Li Hui'er and Yu Youniang were sitting in the carriage. The curtains of the carriage were made of silk, and the workmanship was extremely fine, as thin as a cicada's wings. They could watch the martial arts field in the distance directly through the gauze curtain.

Outside the city walls and on the banks of the river, a large number of onlookers have been attracted without knowing it.I don't know who spread the news, hundreds of people in the city left the city one after another, and all rushed to the temporary competition venue outside the city, gathering crowds to watch, it was very lively.

At this time, more than a hundred sergeants from Zuo Yidu also temporarily acted as guards, drew a large circle on the river bank outside the city, and then blocked all the onlookers from the circle.

Li Huier and Yu Youniang looked at the shining armor and tall war horses, the loud shouts of the crowd, the flag of Zuoyidu fluttering in the wind, and the whole body in the field, with phoenix wings and armor, all proud and cold knight!

"This is even better than the pear garden singing in the Daming Palace in Chang'an City." Li Huier couldn't help but lift the curtain of the car, and poked her head out half covered with the curly head. Looking at the lively scene, she couldn't help but exclaimed. .

Yu Youniang is also a restless master, seeing that the princess is unwilling to stay in the carriage, she let out a silver bell-like laugh, took Li Huier with one hand and jumped out of the carriage, squeezed through the crowd, and rushed into the innermost part of the carriage. go.The common people and soldiers along the way saw the two young men with white skin and red lips in the round-neck robes with Luo Shafu and jade around their waists. Road.

The two of them had already heard the story of Yong Saburo Chishan fighting bandits in the city of Penglai, but after meeting Li Jing face to face a few times before, they always felt that Li Jing was more polite than the one in the story. Little Li Guang looks like a Confucian scholar.At this time today, I finally saw the legendary side of Li Jing, wearing armor and riding on a horse, the whole person's demeanor changed, that kind of ruthlessness and self-confidence made people admire.

"His armor is made of fine steel. The whole armor is woven with a special technique, and there is no nail or nail. The armor is light, but it is invulnerable. It is said that this armor is a family heirloom of the old village head of his village. It was given to him." Yu Youniang whispered some gossip about Li Jing that she had found out in Li Huier's ear.

Li Hui'er covered her mouth and smiled: "I also heard that the old village chief has a widow who is in the prime of his life, and his family has thousands of dollars of wealth. Could it be that the widow wants to recruit your senior brother to be his son-in-law? Then you can get it." Be careful."

A blush rose on Yu Youniang's face, and she stretched out her hand angrily to pinch Li Huier, "He already has a wife, and not only a wife but also a concubine. Besides, I have promised others, you are so messy Say, let people listen to me, I don’t have the face to face people.” As he spoke, he turned his head to one side, angrily ignoring Li Huier.

Li Huier knew that she had touched Yu Youniang's sadness, and she didn't know how to respond immediately.Yu Youniang was in charge of her family when she was young, and made a marriage agreement with the grandson of Lu Yan, the Prime Minister of the capital.Later, Prime Minister Wei Baoheng framed Cong, Lu Yan not only failed to help the family, but joined forces with Wei Baoheng, and the power was shared by the government and the public. They were called Niu Tou Abang.They condemned the entire Yu family and demoted them, and the Yu family and the Lu family have also changed from in-laws to enemies, but the marriage between the two children has not been resolved.But later, Lu Yan and Wei Baoheng fell out, and Wei was demoted to Xichuan Jiedushi. After the new emperor came to the throne, he was demoted to Xinzhou Governor.Now that Wei Baoheng is bestowed with death, Yu Cong and Liu Shan who were framed by the two of them at the beginning have been recalled to pay homage to the chancellor, Lu Yan's fate is known.But Yu Youniang's matter is getting more and more troublesome. When the Lu family gained power, they did not cancel the marriage. Now that the Lu family has lost power, it is not good for the Yu family to cancel the marriage.

Li Huier had also heard from his father that the Yu family might keep a low profile after regaining power this time in order to avoid being gossipy, so the marriage between Yu Youniang and the Lu family is likely to continue.

There was a moment of silence, unspeakably embarrassing.

At this time, Li Huier saw Feng Liang proudly showing off his horse, and couldn't help but despise his behavior, and secretly worried about Li Jing.A good horse lance can add a lot of power to a knight when riding and fighting.Feng Liang uses a lance, while Li Jing uses a spear, the difference is huge.When Li Huier was in Beijing, the generals and nobles she met were all armed with spears. In her impression, those who held spears were ordinary soldiers.You must know that many children from aristocratic families joined the army in the Divine Strategy Forbidden Army in the capital, even if they were not well-known gang leaders, they all held lances.

Outside the arena, someone unexpectedly found a cowhide drum, and it started to beating rumblingly.Accompanied by the beat of drums, Li Jing and Feng Liang drove their horses and came to fight with spears and spears.Although the two men competed for mutual learning, in fact, both of them went into battle with weapons on the battlefield, and did not use wooden headless spears commonly used in military competitions.As soon as the fight started, Feng Liang took advantage of his horse's excellent speed, and charged Li Jing with his horse.

Feng Liang knew better than anyone else the sharpness of Ma Leng. The blade of the Ma Lv in his hand was not double-edged, but a triangular prismatic blade, which pierced the longest armor.With the huge momentum of stepping off the horse, as long as it hits Li Jing, it doesn't need too much strength. The sharp rib-shaped armor-piercing rib can instantly break through the mountain script armor on Li Jing's body, and then the sharp edge that is more than two feet long The blade can directly penetrate Li Jing's body.

At the lower end of the two-foot sharp blade, there is also a leftover complex, which is the two petals like the calyx in the middle.Once the horse lance penetrates the enemy's body, the opponent will be strung on the lance and stuck at the place where the lance is left. The composite lance will be bent sharply. When the enemy on the lance is taken off the ground, due to the super elastic rebound of the lance, In an instant, the human body on the lance was ejected, bringing out a cloud of blood mist.

This is where the horse lance is super strong, the super armor-piercing ability, coupled with the super elastic force of the composite lance, can not only pierce the armor and kill the enemy, but also remove the huge impact force when stabbing the enemy.If it is replaced with a normal spear, the spearhead of the spear will be difficult to break through such fine armor as the Shangshan Character Armor in one blow.And if you stab into the opponent's body while charging, if you don't have strong combat skills, then the huge impact rebound may break the hard spear shaft, or even hurt the rider.

Although Li Jing's spear is not as good as Feng Liang's Ma Qiang, but the length is the same.Li Jing knew very well that his weapons were not as good as Feng Liang's, so he didn't intend to go head-to-head with Feng Liang from the very beginning.Amid the shouts of the crowd, Li Jing leaned his upper body slightly, holding the spear flat on his right arm.Amidst the rumbling of the horse's hooves, the two got closer and closer, until finally Li Jing could even see a sneer on the face of Feng Liang's phoenix wings.

near, near.

When the distance between the two was only three feet away, Li Jing suddenly raised his spear, changed it from a flat-end sprint to a high one, and before Feng Liang could react, he hit Feng Liang's spear hard. On the head of a white war horse without a trace of variegation like snowflakes.

Feng Liang's war horse was not fully armored, but only covered with a thin layer of leather armor, but the leather armor couldn't stop Li Jing's full blow.The war horse let out a mournful cry, bent its front hooves, fell and slid out with a huge momentum.

At the time of Guan Jian, Feng Liang showed that he was well-trained. He immediately threw away the Zhanglong horse in his hand, and then took off the saddle and fell off the horse.After rolling over a dozen times on the ground, Feng Liang finally avoided the fate of being crushed under the horse's belly.But although he managed to escape the danger, he was in a terrible state of embarrassment, and his pocket was also dropped, his body was covered with dust and dirt.There were bursts of burning pain on the face and palms, and blood was wiped from several places on the skin.

"Bai'er, bang'er!" Feng Liang was about to get up, Li Jing had already rushed in front of him on his horse, and the black horse stood up, with two huge front hooves raised above his head.Feng Liang's face turned pale with shock, and a lazy donkey rolled to barely get out of the trampling range of the horse's hooves.

But before he could heave a sigh of relief, a sharp spear point was already on his throat.

"You lost!" Li Jing looked down at him on the horse, with a mocking chuckle.

Feng Liang's face turned white and then red, red and purple, and finally turned black.

"You don't follow the routine!"

"Losing is losing, winning is winning. You are lying under my spear now, what else do you want to say? Nothing can change the fact that you lost, right?"

"No, you're cheating. If you have the guts, just compete with me in an upright manner. What are you doing? You won't win by force." Feng Liang couldn't accept the fact that he lost the competition without persisting for even one round.He didn't care too much about losing a handful of horses worth hundreds of gold. What he cared about was that he lost the competition so easily.

"I want to compete again, do you dare!" Feng Liang shouted hysterically at Li Jing, not even paying attention to the spear point on his throat.

Li Jing was in a very happy mood at this time, and said with a smile: "Why should I compete with you? I have already won, now, it is time for you to fulfill your promise."

The little stone over there has already picked up the horse lance that Feng Liang left behind, and excitedly carried it to Li Jing, "Brother, this horse lance belongs to us now, right?"

Li Jing took Ma Chan and threw the spear in his hand to the small stone. Ma Chan's hand was heavy, much heavier than the previous spear.Li Jing estimated that this four-meter-long horse spear weighed about twenty kilograms.As far as he knew, the best horse lance weighed [-] catties. With a hemp rope, it was hung two feet from the end of the lance.In this way, the military commander can keep the tip of the spear forward without any effort while riding on the horse.The two feet of the end of this hand held the lance, and the weights on both sides were indeed in a balanced state.

Stretching out his fingers to tap on the lance, a sound of gold and iron was heard, and Li Jing drew out the horizontal knife and slashed lightly on the horse lance.As a result, there was only a white mark left at the place where the knife was cut, and even the white mark was gone when he wiped it with his hand.

"A good lance, it really is a good lance worth hundreds of gold. For the sake of this good lance, Feng Wulang, I don't want you to run around naked. Everyone, let's go back to Xianlou for a drink. I guess the buddy has already put away the money The food and wine are all ready." Li Jing laughed loudly.
