Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty

Two teams of cavalry, one from east to west, and the other from west to east. They just merged into one group at Chengtian Gate, and all turned to the south to Suzaku Gate. The horses were running extremely fast. If the streets below had not been swept away, they would have been billowed with dust and smoke by now.

Li Shimin looked at the vigorous riders under the city tower, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "He is really a strong man."

Usually he was always working between the files, and it was rare for him to appreciate the appearance of the sergeants, so he was quite relaxed at the moment, and even felt a little emotional. Back then, he was also a well-known tiger general. Although his horsemanship was not as good as that of Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong, he was still not bad at all. But now, I'm afraid they are very unfamiliar.

However, a king is a king. Naturally, on such a happy day, you won't say some frustrating things that shouldn't be said.

Li Shimin stood on the tower with a smile all the time, as if he couldn't get enough of the lively scene below.

After the two teams of knights joined together, they turned into a mighty torrent and ran out of the Suzaku Gate in the south. They were greeted by guards with knives lined up on both sides of the street. And behind the "warning line" formed by the guards with knives, there are people who have already received the news that today's inspection ceremony will be held, so they are waiting here to watch the excitement.

They were all dressed in festive clothes, standing obediently behind the guards, and some were standing on the second or third floor of the shops along the street, looking at the knights who were speeding past in front of them with shining eyes. figure. The young children were even held on their necks by their parents, and got the best view of the review ceremony, clapping their hands happily.

Perhaps because of the Fubing system, in the Tang Dynasty, there was an inexplicable and intimate relationship between the profession of soldiers and ordinary people. The vast majority of Tang people have a good impression of the army, and it is easier for children to develop trust and admiration for these healthy men who were born in the army.

The cheers of the people even overwhelmed the sound of the hooves of the horses.

The cavalry team was followed by the imperial army in full armor, a total of 10,000 people. All of them were wearing standard chain mail and holding gleaming spears, walking slowly and powerfully on the street. Although not as powerful as the cavalry, no one dared to underestimate the combat effectiveness of this group of infantry.

Li Shimin watched the soldiers slowly walk out of the Vermilion Bird Gate, and suddenly thought of something, and said, "The team behind these two boys is Li Xin and Chen Xiao, right?"

Li Jing nodded and said, "Return to Your Majesty, that's right."

Li Shimin shook his head and said, "I hope these two people won't be too cowardly." When the matter came to an end, he was suddenly worried about these two children. If the army they lead is really not good enough, if there are too many regular troops who just entered the field, will they be too frustrated?

Chen Yin next to him also lacked confidence, and looked anxiously at Yanxi Gate on the west side, but said nothing.

After a while, a long horn sounded at Kaiyuan Gate and Yanxi Gate at the same time. Two teams of armored warriors appeared in the door respectively.

Entering from Yanxi Gate was Chen Xiao's team, led by Chen Xiao in silver armor. I saw Chen Xiao riding on a chestnut horse, wearing a rotten silver helmet and silver scale armor, and holding a red-tasseled spear in his hand. The appearance is not bad.

What followed behind him was the thousand-man battalion he had led away that day. Everyone was fully dressed, with their sharp knives out of their sheaths, and followed behind him unhurriedly.

Chen Yin stroked his beard and watched this scene, and nodded in satisfaction. Even Li Shimin praised him: "As expected of Runde's son. It seems that this child has gained a lot from the two years of experience in the south. What do you think, Mao Gong?"

However, Li Ji unexpectedly did not respond.

Li Shimin turned his head to look at Li Ji, and found that Li Ji's eyes had been completely attracted by the picture at Kaiyuanmen. According to the arrangement, what appeared there should be Li Xin's troops.

Could it be that Li Xin has played tricks again?

Li Shimin looked over with great interest, but saw that the leader of the group of soldiers and horses was not Li Xin, but Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu.

"For such an important event as the military parade, doesn't this brat personally end it?" Li Shimin secretly rolled his eyes.

It is not a secret that Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaiyu and a bunch of other dudes entered the camp to participate in military training. After all, the fathers of these people are standing on the tower right now. They all knew their children's whereabouts very well, so they didn't show surprise at the moment, but looked very interested.

Because of wearing helmets, no one noticed that all the soldiers on Li Xin's side had cropped their heads. However, their strange steps quickly attracted the attention of everyone on the tower.

Boom. Boom. Boom. Boom.

With the sound of uniform footsteps, it is even possible to clearly distinguish whether it is the left foot or the right foot that falls. Every soldier looked straight ahead, his eyes full of determination and courage.

"This power is really extraordinary." Li Shimin murmured.
