The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 759 Fierce Battle in Gaoqiao Town

The future general will be Datang's son-in-law Chai Shao, and now Chai Shao sees that the rebel soldiers are all enemies, and wishes to kill all of Yang Yong's rebel soldiers to avenge his wife.Therefore, he saw the same thing with Shan Xiongxin, and saw countless soldiers of the Tang Army die under Shan Xiongxin's spear. Chai Shao was furious and rushed towards Shan Xiongxin with a yell, and shot him in the chest.

Shan Xiongxin was one of Yang Yong's five tiger generals, and he didn't pay attention to Chai Shao at all. When he saw the guns approaching, Yang Jinding and Zaoyang lances went out to fight, and the guns collided with each other. Chai Shao's arms were numb.

As soon as he joined, Chai Shao knew that Shan Xiongxin was extremely powerful, and he was not as strong as Shan Xiongxin in terms of strength, so he could only win by tricks.After the two horses stepped forward, they rushed over, and the two generals raised their spears and killed them together.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, Chai Shao realized that Shan Xiongxin was not only powerful, but also had wonderful moves. He danced the lance so vigorously that he disappeared like a ghost.Chai Shao didn't dare to be careless at all, he shook the big gun away and tried his best to parry.

In terms of military power rankings, Chai Shao is far behind Shan Xiongxin, but Chai Shao is also a martial arts master, and he is one of the 24 heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. If Shan Xiongxin imagines fighting other Tang soldiers, he will beat Chai Shao with three blows and five divisions. It's not realistic to get down.

After more than a dozen rounds, Chai Shao lost to Shan Xiongxin.

"My son-in-law, don't panic, the end is coming!" At this moment, a young general rushed towards him with a shout from behind. He looked to be about 20 years old, with a black gold helmet on his head, wearing a black gold chain chain armor, and an oolong under his crotch. The foal, a lance in the palm of his hand, spoke directly to Shan Xiongxin like black lightning.

At this time, when Shan Xiongxin was about to kill Chai Shao, this general came down from behind Shan Xiongxin, piercing Shan Xiongxin's back with a volley, and the wind was extremely bitter.

As a general, Shan Xiongxin can see all directions with his eyes and listen to the wind from all sides. What's more, this general is not a thief. In order to embolden Chai Shao, he shouted when he rushed over, so Shan Xiongxin has already noticed the existence of this general behind him .

Hearing the bad wind behind him, Shan Xiongxin knew that this person was playing tricks on him.Relying on his skill and boldness, he didn't turn his head back. He swung his arms completely by feeling, and the direction of the spear that was originally aimed at Chai Shao changed, and he swung behind him.

This hit was really accurate, and the two big spears collided in the air in an instant.When there was a loud bang, the spear that was stabbing behind him was bounced three or four feet high, causing the general of the spear to almost let go from the shock.The Wulong horse who sat down took several steps back, and with just one move, the general knew that Shan Xiongxin was powerful.

But even though Shan Xiongxin sealed this spear, he was so shocked that his mouth was hot and his arms were numb. Experts stretched out their hands to know if there was any. With just this move, Shan Xiongxin knew that this general was definitely not Good stubble, he should be a powerful and brave general.

Shan Xiongxin, the famous son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty, had known him for a long time. He turned his horse and looked around, but he didn't recognize this general, so he couldn't help asking: "Who will be the general?"

The young general sneered and said: "Grandpa is Duan Zhixuan, the hussar general in front of His Majesty the King of Tang. The thief will look at the spear!"

Shan Xiongxin is not very familiar with this name, but this general is also a well-known general in the Tang Dynasty, ranked tenth in Lingyan Pavilion, and ranked ahead of Chai Shao in terms of military achievements, which shows that he is extraordinary.

In fact, among the four famous generals of the Tang Dynasty (referring to Ma Sanbao, Duan Zhixuan, Yin Kaishan, Liu Hongji) and others, Duan Zhixuan was the youngest and the most outstanding one.

According to historical records, Duan Zhixuan's ancestral home was in Shandong, and because his father was an official in Taiyuan, he also lived in Shandong with his father.This general enlisted in the army when he was 14 years old, and followed Emperor Sui Yang to conquer Goguryeo.But the young Duan Zhixuan was a scoundrel who repeatedly violated laws and regulations. After being expelled, he returned to Taiyuan.Later, he was appreciated by Li Shimin and received in the mansion.

When Emperor Gaozu raised his army, Duan Zhixuan fought with Li Shimin and made many military exploits. Later, he followed Li Shimin to pacify Wang Shichong and participated in the Xuanwumen Incident. His greatest contribution was to participate in the Battle of Tongguan, defeating Qu Tutong, a famous general of the Sui Dynasty, and then led his army to defeat Tuyuhun. , Chase out eight hundred miles.During the Zhenguan period, Emperor Taizong Li Shimin personally conferred the titles of General of Youwei and General of the Zhenjun, and awarded him the titles of Duke Fan and Duke Bao, and later bestowed him with the titles of General of Fuguo and Governor of Yangzhou. This will not be overstated.

The above is the official history.In this article, everything has changed due to Yang Yong's time travel. The home of his master Li's father and son has changed. He was on the wrong team, and of course his final home has also changed. At least he can't enter Lingyan Pavilion.

This book is being written in AD 619, because Duan Zhixuan is the same age as Li Shimin, and he has just turned 21 at this time, so it can be said that he is full of vigor.Shan Xiongxin made a good judgment, Duan Zhixuan is not inferior to Chai Shao in terms of martial arts, he dismounts from the horse, and has unstoppable courage in the palm of his hand.

In addition, we have mentioned three kinds of weapons many times in the article, guns, spears, and lances.In order for you to read clearly, here may wish to briefly explain a few words.In fact, these three weapons are a family. In the era of cold weapons, it is difficult for even family experts to completely separate the three.Therefore, it is not wrong to classify them as one kind of weapon. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, this was the most common weapon with the highest technical content.

But there are still subtle differences between the three.According to the order of appearance in history, the first one was the spear. Before the Zhou Dynasty, the spear was mainly used for hunting, mainly for stabbing and throwing. The length was generally 2 to 4 meters and the weight was very light.After being used in large-scale wars, its length and weight increased accordingly, and it was upgraded to a gun in Han Dynasty.

The upgrade from a spear to a gun does not change much in terms of shape, length, and weight. The biggest change is in the head of the weapon. In addition, with the improvement of smelting technology, the proportion of metal on the gun body is increasing. Spears are more abundant, depending on the shape of the blade (tip), there are snake spear guns, hook sickle guns and other guns.In addition, there are blood shields and red tassels at the connection between the gun head and the gun shaft, which is also a difference.But the biggest difference between a gun and a spear is not in the shape of the weapon, but in the fighting technique.

Spears are mainly for stabbing and throwing, while the functions of spears are varied. They have the functions of both spears and sticks. There are endless routines, this is marksmanship.

It seems simple to walk a line with a gun, but the gun is called the thief among weapons, and it is the most hard-working and difficult to practice among cold weapons, so there is a saying that "the moon stick is a sword for a lifetime and a gun for a lifetime".In fact, if you want to really practice the gun well, I am afraid that a lifetime will not be enough. That is to say, there are endless marksmanship skills, and sometimes it takes several generations of hard work to pass on a set of profound marksmanship skills.

Historically speaking, the real heyday of marksmanship was in the Song Dynasty, represented by the Yang Family Spear and the Yue Family Spear.After the Southern Song Dynasty, due to the large-scale use of gunpowder in wars, cold weapons and traditional martial arts fighting techniques gradually declined. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that foreign guns and cannons were mass-produced and used in military affairs, and cold weapons and traditional martial arts gradually withdrew from the stage of history.

In this book, Yang Yong's marksmanship is called "Liuhe Shenqiang", which is the essence of six famous spear techniques, so the protagonist is brave and invincible.

The lance is an upgraded version of the gun. Its length and weight have increased significantly. Whether it is leather armor or metal armor, it is vulnerable to a big lance.

According to different users, lance is divided into horse lance and lance.In particular, the weight of the horse lance has increased significantly compared with the gun. The longest lance in history is said to be more than two feet. The horse lance is mainly used to equip heavy cavalry. Because of its heavy weight, it is invincible when it is killed by inertia on a galloping horse.This is also one of the main reasons why Turkic cavalry dominate the grassland.

But its shortcomings are also obvious. It needs strong force to control it well, and its bulkiness is not like a gun that can dance endlessly changing routines.Basically, the lance technique involves one or two tricks to attract the enemy. If there are too many tricks, there will inevitably be flaws. Therefore, the lancers are generally equipped with short weapons such as whips, swords, and maces to make up for the lack of large lances.

What needs to be specially explained is that during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, horse lances were more popular.However, due to the relatively high cost and limited smelting technology, there are very few pure metal lances except for the lance head. Most lances are made of wood, which should be said to be Zhe wood. The hardness and elasticity of this wood They are all very good, but it takes many processes to make a lance from Zhe wood, so a good lance is very expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it, and only noble children can use it. It is also a status symbol.

According to official history records, Yu Chigong, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Li Yuan's fourth son Qi Wang Li Yuanji all used horse lances.As for whether Duan Zhixuan is really good at using horse lances, it is unknown. This article is a novel. According to the needs of the situation, Xiaocao can just let him use horse lances.

The book returns to the text.Duan Zhixuan's flying horse straightened his spear and charged at Shan Xiongxin again. Naturally, Chai Shao on the other side would not wait and see, and rushed up with his horse and gun, and the two fought Shan Xiongxin.

Shan Xiongxin defeated the second general and became more and more courageous in the battle, and the third general killed more than [-] people, regardless of the outcome.But the Tang army is gathering more and more, while the volunteer army is getting less and less. Now Shan Xiongxin has only a few commanders and five or six hundred volunteers fighting to protect the miracle doctor An Daoquan. Wrapped up, as the rebel soldiers continued to fall, the encirclement was shrinking rapidly.

Shan Xiongxin hit him, seeing that the situation was not good from the corner of his eye, and wanted to protect Andao to break through, but Chai Shao and Duan Zhixuan saw through Shan Xiongxin's intentions, and clung to him tightly.Shan Xiongxin had no choice but to order the commanders to break through the encirclement first to keep An Daoquan, and he single-handedly broke through here.

At this moment, another Tang general killed Fei Ma, and it was the sword general Yin Kaishan.Yin Kaishan saw that the two of them were no match for Shan Xiongxin, so he also rushed up to help out with a knife. In this way, three against one, three horses fought around Shan Xiongxin like a revolving lantern.

Shan Xiongxin had no fear against the three generals, and after more than a dozen rounds, the three generals were still unable to defeat Shan Xiongxin.

At this moment, Li Yuan, under the protection of Li Shentong, led the main force to kill.Seeing that Shan Xiongxin was so powerful, Li Yuan's fighting spirit also came up. Wearing heavy armor and carrying a serrated mace, he and Li Shentong rushed forward together, and the five generals fought against Shan Xiongxin.

Needless to say Li Shentong, this is also Li Yuan's general, he is of the same family as Li Yuan, this person has experienced many battles, is skilled in swords and horses, and has a valiant way of killing.

It is worth mentioning that Li Yuan, Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty, was an emperor on horseback. He used to be the Duke of Tang in the Sui Dynasty. His grandfather Li Hu was the Taiwei of the Western Wei Dynasty, one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms. Tang Guogong, his mother was the sister of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, Empress Dugu.Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to call him a general.

Although Li Yuan came from a rich and powerful family, he is not an uneducated dude, that is to say, his status was not earned by fighting for his father. Li Yuan lost his father when he was seven years old. Shu, who was a Qianniu Beishen in the Sui Dynasty, is the emperor's imperial military officer. In other words, he is a master in the palace, which shows how high his martial arts is.He spent his whole life as a soldier, and only then did he win the world and establish the Tang Dynasty.

Li Yuan is now over fifty years old, but the tiger's might is still there, and the sword is not old.

Shan Xiongxin couldn't take it anymore when these two generals were killed.Originally, he had already been playing for a long time, and his physical strength was seriously exhausted.There is a saying that two fists are difficult to hold four hands, and a hero cannot stand up to many people. This sentence makes sense.

Shan Xiongxin's big lance slowed down. Just as he blocked the knife, the gun arrived. As soon as he hid the gun, the lance and the knife came together again.Shan Xiongxin was confused by the five generals, full of flaws, when he was about to be beheaded by the horse, Li Yuan ordered him to live, which also saved Shan Xiongxin's life.

"Shan Xiongxin, do you see if there is anyone around? Do you want to continue the fight?" Li Yuan said as he swayed his horse out of the circle, and the other four generals also stopped their moves. Shan Xiongxin who was trapped in the middle I have to breathe.

He was sweating profusely, feeling as if his heart was about to be overwhelmed. He took a few breaths and then felt better. The big lance in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand catties. He lifted the big lance upside down and swept it with his eyes. I don't know when the soldiers and horses disappeared, even the hundreds of people who were the genius doctor An Daoquan disappeared. I don't know whether these people rushed out, were captured, or died in battle, but there was nothing in sight. It was Tang Bing Tang General, and he had a premonition that An Daoquan and others were in danger.

Seeing this, Shan Xiongxin felt sad for a while, this general is really incompetent, exhausting thousands of troops, if not for his own mistake, could these people have been brutally murdered?It's all my fault!

"Shan Xiongxin, let's capture it with nothing. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. I cherish your martial arts and loyalty. As long as you are willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, I will let the past go, and you will be crowned as the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!" Li Yuan took the opportunity to persuade.

"Shut up!" Shan Xiongxin stopped him, glaring at him, "Li Yuan, do you want me to abandon the dark and turn to the bright? It sounds nice, who is the dark and who is the bright? I know everything you do, and I want to protect you. Mingzhu secretly voted, I was born as a member of the rebel army, and died as a ghost of the rebel army, I would rather die in battle than surrender, you guys!" As he said, he smashed his horse and swung his spear and took Li Yuan directly.

Not to mention the thousands of troops of the Tang army, the four generals around Li Yuan would not stare at them. Chai Shao, Duan Zhixuan and Yin Kaishan stopped Shan Xiongxin and started fighting again.

Li Shen said: "Your Majesty, this person was born in the green forest, and his thieves have not changed. It is difficult to let this person fall into Tang Dynasty."

Li Yuan nodded and said: "Then let him be fulfilled."
