The night banquet was as rich as last night. However, when Mrs. Song saw Li Xu, she circled around him several times like Yu Yu, looking up and down, and said in surprise: "I really didn't expect that Brother Xu was so handsome, even the most powerful general in the state army was ashamed of himself. I really can't tell!"

Li Xu smiled and thought to himself that if you knew my courage, it would be a big deal.

Song Yu arrived early today and praised Li Xu again.

Hearing that Li Duwei gave his mount Zhuifeng to Li Xu, he was quite surprised and said, "Old Li is very optimistic about you. This is a passionate relationship with you in advance."

Li Xu smiled and said, "The Duwei Li loves his younger generation so much, not just because I personally. What's more important here is that you have your face in it, Uncle San."

The meaning is very obvious. Li Zhijin wins over and gives away horses, not only because Li Xu has strong personal abilities, but also because there is a Song Yu standing behind Li Xu.

To make friends with Li Xu means to show kindness to Song Yu.

Song Yu smiled but said nothing, but he looked at Li Xu with even more satisfaction. He knew that the young man in front of him was not only skilled in martial arts, but also had extremely exquisite thoughts.

After three rounds of drinking, Song Yu got up and took Li Xu to a small arsenal located in a side courtyard.

Although the arsenal is not big, only about three rooms, there are two armored guards on duty at the door.

Song Yu used the key he carried with him to open the thick door himself, pushed it in, and Li Xu followed behind him.

The arsenal is divided into two rooms. The first room is filled with armor, swords, bows, crossbows, shields, etc. Although the texture is excellent, there is nothing strange about it.

Song Yu took Li Xu straight into the second room. The room seemed much empty, but there were rows of shelves near the wall, with a long-handled axe, a long-handled sword, a nine-section iron whip and a pair of iron maces on it.

These weapons have obvious signs of being used.

Song Yu's eyes flew over these weapons one by one, and said with emotion: "These weapons were used by my ancestors of the Song family. This big axe was used by my grandfather. The long-handled big knife was used by my third uncle and grandfather. The iron whip was used by my grandfather Zhong and grandfather. The iron mace was used by my uncle and grandfather Gao's weapon."

Li Xu looked at it and felt in his heart that the ancestors of the Song family were all fierce men and used heavy weapons that only powerful generals could use.

Song Yu turned to Li Xu's solemn face, with a smile flashing in his eyes, and continued: "My Song family is passed down from martial arts. The family motto of the ancestors is that all the children of the Song family, both men and women, must practice martial arts. Not only to strengthen the body, but also to keep the Song family's martial arts style not only to keep the difficulties of their ancestors in entrepreneurship."

Li Xu nodded, looked at Song Yu, and asked curiously: "Third Uncle, what weapon do you practice?"

He didn't quite believe that Song Yu, a typical civil servant, had even learned martial arts. Even if he had learned it, he would probably have some fancy moves.

Song Yu seemed to see Li Xu’s thoughts, and just smiled and said, “Then guess.”

Li Xu blinked and asked tentatively: "Practice sword?"

For some reason, Song Yu always felt that Li Xu's expression was a little strange. He frowned and shook his head. He stopped guessing. He turned around and walked to the pair of nine-part iron whips, bowed respectfully, then held the nine-part iron whips with both hands, walked to the empty space in the center of the room, sinking the center of gravity, stance steadily, held the iron whip in his right hand and waved a starter pose, and suddenly shouted lightly. The iron whip in his hand instantly slashed down the sky, exploding through the air.

Li Xu's eyes were filled with whip shadows. The nine-section iron whip was grinding up, sweeping down, cutting down, cutting straight, measuring, squeezing, and squeezing. Song Yu moved flexibly with the corresponding iron whip hitting method. His body was light and fast, moving in a proper manner, and he fully demonstrated the characteristics of the whip's attacking method such as blocking, dropping, pointing, cutting, sweeping, disc, board, poking, blocking, squeezing, and squeezing.

After a while, Song Yu stopped, stood there and gasped slightly, but his eyes looked at Li Xu with smugness.

Li Xu sighed from the bottom of his heart: "I didn't expect that Uncle San is actually a master of playing whips. No wonder Aunt San has a deep love with you, and my nephew admires you!"

Although Song Yu was a little breathless after playing, he smiled complacently when he heard Li Xu's words, thinking that this kid had good martial arts skills and good vision.

I just don’t know what it has to do with my wife when I play with the iron whip. Are I really old and don’t understand the language of young people?

However, he didn't think much about it, put the iron whip back on the shelf, and then said to Li Xu generously: "Pick one of the weapons here, just treat it as a gift from my third uncle, to celebrate your fame and reputation as a martial artist today."

Li Xu didn't expect that the gift Yu Yu mentioned before refers to this.

Although he now has horizontal swords and muskets as his main combat weapons, horizontal swords are still a bit short when riding a horse and rushing to the formation, and he will suffer a little from facing the enemy's long weapons.

The biggest function of the musket is sneak attacks, and it cannot be displayed in front of people often, so Li Xu feels that he needs a long weapon suitable for horse battles.

His eyes passed over the long-handled swords and axes, turned around and landed on a weapon on a shelf in the corner, and pointed to the weapon and said, "Uncle San, I want this."

Song Yu turned to look at the long weapon that Li Xu had taken a fancy to, and hesitated for a moment, saying, "Are you sure you want this?"

Li Xu said: "Don't I be reluctant to let it go?"

Song Yu shook his head and said, "It's not that I can't bear to let go. Weapons are for people to use. Being able to kill enemies and make meritorious contributions on the battlefield is the best destination for a weapon."

Song Yu was really reluctant to let it go, because the weapon that Li Xu liked was a horse spear that was 18 meters long (more than four meters).

The horse lance is essentially a spear used by cavalry, but because of its characteristics of tactics, it is longer than the spear used by infantry, with more exquisite materials and more exquisite workmanship.

Because horse lances are mostly used for heavy cavalry impact, they have high requirements for the strength of the lance handle, so they mostly use well-made bamboo slabs or other high-quality wood.

In addition, the opponents are wearing heavy armor, so the spearhead material of the horse lance is higher: choose better steel, and the blade should be made narrower, long and straighter, which is more conducive to puncture.

The horse spear rose from the Wei and Jin Dynasties and was active on the battlefield until the early Ming Dynasty.

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Sui and Tang Dynasties, a large number of powerful generals who were good at using horse spears emerged, such as Shan Xiongxin, who was good at using horse spears.

But what is even more powerful than him is the sect god brother Yuchi Jingde. Yuchi Jingde is not only good at using spears, but also good at avoiding spears and seizing spears.

Shan Xiongxin was killed by Yuchi Jingde on the battlefield and then stabbed him to death with another spear.

King Li Yuanji of Qi was also considered a powerful general who was good at using horse spears. Li Shimin once asked Yuchi Jingde and Yuanji to practice seizing spears. Yuanji was angry and stabbed Jingde with all his strength. However, Jingde successfully seized the spear several times, and Yuanji held a grudge in his heart, which was also the fuse of his later rebellion with Li Shimin's brothers.

But the horse lance in front of me is not the conventional type of horse lance, but a variant of the horse lance.

An ordinary horse lance has a sharp blade at one end, but this horse lance also has a sharp blade at the end.
