I am a thief in the Tang Dynasty

"Of course you can. You must study hard when the time comes. I will test you. If you fail, let's see how your general will deal with you!"

After Fang Yiyi finished speaking half-threateningly, Chai Xueying, who had been laughing sweetly, immediately looked stern and raised her little fist.

The four girls showed no fear at all and responded with high morale:

"Yes, Saburo, the general!"

......

Two more days passed.

Two thousand Tang cavalrymen equipped with horseshoes were lured by the Eastern Turkic cavalry into the dangerous mountains and were surrounded.

As a result, the two thousand cavalrymen defeated the five thousand elite cavalrymen of the Eastern Turks, broke out of the encirclement, and even pursued the enemy for thirty miles, killing more than three thousand enemies in one battle. It was an extraordinary achievement and a great victory.

The battle report was sent urgently over 800 miles and reached Chang'an on the same day.

Taiji Palace, inside the imperial study.

Li Shimin, who was delighted, read out the victory report himself and asked the eunuch Zhang Ananda to circulate it to the officials, laughing loudly:

"Hahahaha, great, that's great. This horseshoe makes my Tang Dynasty cavalry seem like a godly army, fearless of danger. The horseshoe won a great victory in the first battle, so I deserve the reward!"

"Pass on my decree. Duan Yan and Li Siwen will each be awarded 100 pieces of Shu embroidery!"

Chapter 140 The time has come to destroy the Eastern Turks. I allow the war to start earlier.

Duan Lun and Li Ji's smiles widened, and they immediately cast grateful glances towards Fang Xuanling who was congratulating them.

The gentlemen who gathered together to read the good news all had excited looks on their faces.

Fang Yiyi's father-in-law, Chai Shao, stepped forward, crossed his arms, and bowed, saying:

"Your Majesty, we have won this battle. The Eastern Turks will not attack again! The danger at the border will be resolved soon."

"Last year, I occupied the important city of Liangshidu. I think we can now secretly send more troops to Liangshidu."

At this point, Chai Shao's eyes flashed with electricity, and he said in a loud voice: "The battle to destroy the Eastern Turks should be started in advance!"

Li Jing also saluted and said, "I second the motion!"

All the gentlemen echoed.

Li Shimin also took a deep breath, stood up and said loudly:

"God bless our Tang Dynasty. The time has come to destroy the Eastern Turks. I allow the war to start earlier than planned!"

"Pass on my order. The Ministry of Works will make every effort to build horseshoes. Troops from all prefectures will be dispatched to the north. Grain from government warehouses and charity warehouses will be sent north!"

At this point, Li Shimin's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he roared out the humiliation that had been suppressed in his heart for three years.

"Gentlemen, destroy the Eastern Turks and use their blood to wash away the deep hatred of the past!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The gentlemen looked solemn and saluted Li Shimin.

......

In the manor named Fang Family No. 1 by Fang Yiyi.

Xue Rengui and twelve other Snow Leopard Guards were standing in military posture under the scorching sun.

In less than three days, these twelve young men underwent tremendous changes.

Each of them had a resolute expression and looked straight ahead with determined eyes. Even though the sweat flowed into their eyes, they did not change at all, and remained motionless like a sculpture.

The other seventeen young men who did not get the wooden sign that day stood not far opposite Xue Li and his group, also standing in meticulous military posture. They stared at Xue Li and his group with indignant eyes, searching for opponents they could challenge.

Langjun said that failing the first assessment does not mean that you have completely lost your chance.

As long as their scores in the subsequent assessments exceed those of any member of the Snow Leopard Guard, they can challenge any member of the Snow Leopard Guard.

Although the successful person cannot join the Snow Leopard Guard, he can replace the other party and receive the treatment of the Snow Leopard Guard.

Not for the shame of being attacked by Xue Li and others in the woods that day.

Just for the monthly salary of one string of silver from the Snow Leopard Guard, they put in all their efforts, trained hard, and defeated the opponent!

In the shade of a tree not far away.

Fang Yiyi held a Type 95 saber and waved it continuously at a human-shaped wooden stake made by Carpenter Sun.

The sharp blade slid across and pierced into the vital points of the human-shaped wooden stake.

At the same time, Fang Yiyi was explaining to the four girls, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.

"As Xueying's personal soldiers, let alone on the battlefield, if you were to encounter an ambush or assassination, you would definitely be outnumbered, or even isolated and helpless."

"If you want to break out of the siege, it will be a fierce battle. To keep fighting, you need to maintain your physical strength. Once you lose your physical strength, you will die."

"It's not advisable to attack and charge fiercely. It consumes energy too quickly. So we need to consume it reasonably to kill the opponent. The best way is to attack the opponent's vital points and kill the enemy with one move. Not to mention killing the opponent on the spot, but also to make the opponent lose the power to fight back."

"So, you must learn to use your lesser strength to accurately attack the opponent's vital points. You must memorize the places I attack and practice until you are sure to hit the target with one strike."

"I will teach you another skill, and also a combined attack method."

The four girls, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, were all dumbfounded as they watched the dagger in Fang Yiyi's hand sweep across the wooden man's temples, eyes, neck, throat, heart and other vital parts of the human body quickly and accurately.

Chapter 141 Pingkangfang, the red-light district of the Tang Dynasty!

The four girls looked at the man with admiration. He was as thin as a willow tree and would fall down if the wind blew.

It is hard to believe that this playboy, who is known for his lack of knowledge and skills, actually has such a sharp set of short knife skills.

After hearing Fang Yiyi's words, everyone nodded quickly.

Chai Xueying, who was standing by, asked curiously, "Husband, where did you learn this sword technique? It looks tricky and vicious, but it also has great power. It's really a perfect sword technique for killing people."

Fang Yiyi, who already had a plan in mind, smiled and said:

"Before, when I was drunk in Pingkangfang, I met a poor old man who looked like a beggar. I felt sorry for him, so I gave him a string of coins. Who would have thought that he was a strange man? He gave me this set of sword skills and a book of grappling secrets called "Eighteen Hands of the Black Dragon."

"I don't like martial arts. I relied on my good memory and forgot about them after I read them. After I married you, I thought that I would go to war with you in the future, so I had to have some martial arts skills to rely on. So I recalled them and started practicing."

After hearing this, the five girls no longer had any doubts. There were countless extraordinary people in the world.

It is not surprising that people often obtain profound inheritance and become famous.

They looked at Fang Yiyi with admiration.

My husband does good deeds, creates good causes, and reaps good results.

If other people met an old beggar, they would at most give him a few copper coins, but at worst they would verbally abuse him or beat him up.

It's my husband's turn to have such sharp swordsmanship and grappling skills. Every sip and every bite is destined by fate!

Lichun blinked and said, "So, Sanlang, you were running in the yard early in the morning, and you were lying on the ground up and down, and you asked Xue Li and the others to do the same. I guess this is the body training method taught by this strange man?"

"That's right!" Fang Yiyi agreed decisively, and even raised his muscleless arm, boasting: "Look, I have become much stronger these days."

Chunxiaqiudong looked at his skinny body and his skin so white that even women were ashamed and envious, and he was speechless.

Chai Xueying, who had deep experience in bed, said with great approval: "Yes, my husband's body is indeed stronger."

Tread!

The crisp sound of horse hooves came from a distance.

At the same time, there were shouts of jubilation.

"Do it, do it!"

"OK, we've got another reward! Let's go have some fun in Pingkangfang!"

"Xingzhi, come out quickly, let's go to Pingkangfang to drink together!"

"Xingzhi, where are you?!"

These days, Fang Yiyi has been staying in Fang family's No. 1 farm.

It's not just for training Xue Li and others.

More importantly, after the horseshoe came out, his grandfather sent a letter full of anger.

He scolded Fang Yiyi for not being a good son and hiding everything from his grandfather, making his grandfather lose face in front of outsiders. He also asked his grandfather to clean up the mess for his son and told Fang Yiyi to return home quickly and accept the family rules!

As a son, Fang Yiyi could not disobey his father's orders. He could only work hard in bed and asked his wife to write a letter to his grandfather. Only then was he able to stay in the farm and wait for a few days until his grandfather's anger subsided before returning to the city.

After Duan Yan and Li Siwen were appointed to official positions, they wanted to find Fang Yiyi to have a drink to celebrate and express their gratitude, but they were stopped by their grandfather. In addition, many good friends came to congratulate them, so they were busy with social engagements.

Today, the emperor has rewarded them again, and the two of them could not help but invite this good brother and benefactor into the city for some drinks!

The voices of Duan Yan and Li Siwen floated into the ears of Fang Yiyi and others.

Fang Yiyi was immediately very excited!

Pingkangfang, the red-light district of the Tang Dynasty!

Chapter 142: Riding a horse on a sloping bridge, red sleeves waving in the building

Fang Yiyi traveled through time and space only to Pingkangfang to have a cup of tea or to discuss serious matters with Duan Yan and Yan Xuansui. He did not experience the beauty in his memory at all.

I have always wanted to experience the beauty of Pingkangfang in person. Even if I don’t do anything, it’s good to just take a look!

Fang Yiyi was happy, excited and impatient.

But he said to Chai Xueying with a righteous look: "I want to drink, so I drink. It's not good to ask me to go to Pingkangfang, a place of fireworks and willows, full of smoke and pollution."

"It's so nice to be in our manor, Xueying. We'll persuade them to drink in our manor later."

Ever since Chai Xueying saw her husband remain indifferent to the advances and seductions of Dilraba Dilmurat, who was a real disaster, she no longer worried that Fang Yiyi would mess around outside.

Moreover, she wouldn't mind if Fang Yiyi really wanted to go to Pingkangfang to play.

Before getting married, her husband spent all his time in Pingkangfang, living a life of debauchery, and she didn't mind it. Now that the two of them are married, Chai Xueying naturally won't say anything.

She just rolled her eyes coquettishly and said:

"You have done them such a great service, and they specially invited you. If you don't go, wouldn't that be rejecting their good intentions?"

"I won't go to your party. Take care of yourself and drink less."

These enlightened and generous words deeply moved Fang Yiyi.

The wife knew why Duan Yan and the others called Pingkangfang, but she did not warn him. She just told him not to drink too much and to take care of himself.

No matter how fun Pingkangfang is, no matter how beautiful Meiji is, they are all vanity in front of his beloved wife. He suddenly didn't want to go there anymore. He wanted to stay in the manor, love his beloved wife, and dance with fish and dragons at night.

Chai Xueying saw the deep affection in Fang Yiyi's eyes. She felt warm in her heart. She stretched out her slender fingers to seal the lips that wanted to speak, and smiled gently:

"I know you have me in your heart, don't worry."

Fang Yiyi said seriously: "Let's go back together. If you don't like it, go back home first. I will go home after I finish drinking."

As soon as these words came out.

What else can Chai Xueying say?

She immediately pressed her head close to her husband's arms with emotion. Her snow-white breasts under her martial arts uniform were squeezed like cotton candy, which made Fang Yiyi extremely determined to return home at night.

The sun sets and the sky darkens.

In Pingkangfang, Chang'an, the sky is already lit up by candlelight.

On the third floor of Zuixiang Pavilion, in Shuyue Wing.

There were delicious food and fine wine, beautiful girls, pleasant music, and dozens of people were laughing and chatting happily.

Duan Yan and Li Siwen were awarded titles again and became the objects of everyone's praise.

The people around them toasted the two of them with cups of wine.

Fang Yiyi, who had previously made a name for himself with his new waterwheel, has been forgotten by everyone.

Fang Yiyi, who disliked such occasions deep down in his soul, stood on the corridor leading to Shuyuexiang.

The pink gauze hanging on the outside of the attic fluttered in the night wind, adding a layer of magnificence to the brightly lit Pingkangfang in Fang Yiyi's eyes.

On the streets, down-and-out scholars, confident talents, and elegant nobles came in and out of brothels and taverns.

The fiery Hu Ji and the gentle Mei Ji accompanied him and made Pingkangfang prosperous.
