Chapter Fourteen New Weapons
Yang Su nodded silently. This is normal. The Turks are known as the wolf of the grassland, and they have more advantages on the grassland. This time they sent two hundred scouts. So far, less than fifty people have returned alive. It is a blessing that Yang Yuanqing and the others have only four killed in battle.
"I will give you good pensions, and you will also write down your achievements one by one. I will reward you after the war is over. I will not treat you well just because you are my grandson, nor will I erase your merits. Everything will be done according to military rules."
"Thank you, Marshal!"
Changsun Sheng next to him asked curiously: "You said just now, did you shoot Datou's nephew Ashinaboli?"
Yang Su then remembered that before he introduced Yang Yuanqing, he quickly smiled and said, "This is General Changsun Sheng, the official appointed as General of the Cavalry of Zuoxun Guard, the Turkic envoy, and is a master of martial arts. He is known as the first arrow of the Great Sui Dynasty."
Yang Yuanqing hurriedly bowed and said, "Yuan Qing heard about General Changsun's reputation for a long time. Now he will be lucky to see him in three lives."
He took out the gold medal and handed it to Changsun Sheng, "General Changsun, the master of this gold medal."
Changsun Sheng took the gold medal and looked carefully, and said to Yang Su solemnly: "This Ashina Boli is nominally the nephew of Datou, but in fact he was born with an affair with his sister-in-law. It is known to the grassland that he is Datou's most beloved son. He should be only eighteen years old this year. I heard that Datou is still planning to make him the heir, but he was killed by Ling Sun. Datou is narrow-minded and has a strong desire to take revenge. He will not bear this tone. Grandmaster, if I guess it is good, the battle is right in front of me."
Yang Su pondered for a moment, then patted Yang Yuanqing on the shoulder, "I will record all the achievements one by one for you. You can go down and rest first!"
Yang Yuanqing bowed and then stepped down. Changsun Sheng looked at his back and said to Yang Su: "This time I went back to the capital. I felt that the capital was getting worse and worse, and it was not as good as before. The wealth of powerful families was accumulated, and pearls and jade were presented to the hall. The nobles' children were either flying eagles or horses, not doing their jobs, or sleeping in flowers and willows, claiming to be romantic, and even the prince pursued luxury and hated simplicity. The case of Mr. Liu involved hundreds of ministers. This shows the bad trend. It is rare to see the shadow of our past in Sun. The servants should teach them well and make them pillars of the Sui Dynasty."
Yang Su smiled, "I know this child, I plan to put him on the frontier for a few years, so that he can be tempered in the war. Only by growing up in the most difficult places can he become a real thousand-mile horse."

Yang Yuanqing returned to his tent, where only Sogdian Conbas was sitting in the tent in a daze. He couldn't help but wonder, "Where are the others?"
"Yuchi said he would go out of the camp to release the eagles. Yang Sien and Ma Shao went to the back camp to visit Liu Jian, and said he would come back later."
Liu Jian was most injured and was sent to the back camp for treatment. Yang Yuanqing knew that Yuchi was actually inconvenient to change the medicine, so he used the excuse of letting the eagle out of the camp, which was also the reason why she insisted on being an eagle slave.
He saw Combass writing Sogdian words on a piece of paper, and sat up and smiled, "What are you writing?"
Combas scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "I'm writing a letter to my wife telling her that I'm not dead, so I don't know if I can send it back?"
"This is fine. I'll help you find someone with a way. There is a Persian residence in the capital city of Liren, so that Hu Shang there will take you home."
Combas was overjoyed and quickly clasped his hands and said, "Thank you for being too old!"
Yang Yuanqing asked him with a smile, "Do you want to go back? I can let you go."
Conbass looked embarrassed, "I originally wanted to go back, but Yang Sien advised me to stay and follow Huo Chang to take up a position in the future. To be honest, I was a little moved. If I could really get a position in the office, I would take my wife and daughter to settle in Xijing, but...."
"But I'm afraid of death, right?" Yang Yuanqing really understood his thoughts.
Combas scratched his head awkwardly, "Actually, I'm not afraid of death, but my son is only five years old and my daughter is only two years old. I don't want to leave them."
Yang Yuanqing comforted him and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you go to the battlefield in the future. If you stay, teach me Turkic and Sogdian first. After the war, I recommend you to be a Chinese military official. At most two or three years, you can get a small position. Maybe you can become a high-ranking official in the court in the future."
Combass's face turned red due to shame. How could he be a high-ranking official in the court?
But another luster flashed in his eyes, which was his dream for the future. He looked outside the tent and whispered like a dream: "The fire is long. In fact, my biggest dream is to open a jewelry store in Liren City, Xijing, specializing in selling Sogdian jewelry. Then, I opened a porcelain and satin shop in the shopping mall in Samarkand, selling porcelain and satin from the east of the Central Plains. I owned a caravan of 500 camels, traveling between Sogdian and Xijing...."
Yang Yuanqing sighed slightly, "Your requirements are not high, maybe one day I can help you."
"No! I don't want anyone's help. The Sogdians make money by relying on their own minds and hands. Only when my life is still there, the Lord God will guide me to a successful day."
"No problem, you will definitely not die!"
Yang Yuanqing patted his shoulder heavily, stood up and greeted the door of the tent. He saw a soldier running towards his tent.
"What's the matter?"
"Yang Huochang, General Yu invites you to go!"
Yang Yuanqing took out a pill of elixir and handed it to Conbas, "Give this to Yuchi, she knows how to take it."
He quickly followed the soldiers to the Yujuluo tent.

Yu Juluo's big tent was about a hundred steps away from his camp. He saw a circle of soldiers surrounding his big tent from afar, cheering loudly.
Yang Yuanqing squeezed into the crowd, but saw a very tall man, with a silver helmet and silver armor, waving a horse spear, which was unpredictable and dazzling.
"Yuwen Chengdu?"
Yang Yuanqing was stunned. How could he be here? He thought about it. In the Romance, Yuwen Chengdu was a disciple of Yujuluo. Could it be that they really have the fate of master and disciple?
With a loud 'bang!', Yuwen Chengdu slapped the ground with a spear, stirring up dust in the sky. The soldiers retreated one after another. Yuwen Chengdu slapped the spear and stood proudly and said: "General Yu, can this set of spear techniques touch your eyes?"
Yu Juluo stood at the gate, and he shook his head, "The spear technique is excellent, but General Yuwen did not do his best."
Yuwen Chengdu laughed, "General Yu misunderstood. When the major general comes, I will naturally teach him with all my strength. I will not hide my own personal information. I also hope that General Yu can keep his promise."
"Yes, if General Yuwen doesn't hide his own private affairs, then I, Yu Juluo, will never go back on my word."
Yang Yuanqing suddenly realized that it was Yuwen Chengdu who wanted to teach him the spear method. Could it be that Yu Juluo wanted to learn the horse spear by himself?
At this time, Yu Juluo saw Yang Yuanqing and waved to him with a smile, "Yuanqing, come here!"
Yang Yuanqing walked up to Yuwen Chengdu and bowed to him, "General Yuwen, long time no see."
Yuwen Chengdu smiled slightly and returned the favor to him, "I heard that the Major General has made great contributions, congratulations!"
He bowed to Yu Juluo next to him and smiled, "General Yu, then I will say goodbye first. The things we agreed on will be settled in one sentence!"
Yu Juluo nodded, "Yes, since I have agreed, I will not regret it."
Yuwen Chengdu clasped his fists at Yang Yuanqing, "You can come to me at any time!"
He turned around and left. Yang Yuanqing looked at him and walked away. He turned around and smiled at Yu Juluo and said, "Does General Yu want me to use a horse spear instead?"
"This is up to you to decide. General Yuwen's spear technique is actually very good. I saw him use it once, like thunder and lightning, and it is unstoppable. He is the most wisest person I have seen who uses a horse spear. Because of his own strength, he changed to a pike. I want to use sword technique to exchange him for horse spear technique."
Yu Juluo has received Yang Su's official commission and asked him to teach his grandson martial arts. Yu Juluo agreed, but there is one thing that he will not be Yang Yuanqing's master for the time being. Yang Yuanqing is Zhang Xutuo's apprentice, and he doesn't want to turn against Zhang Xutuo. This cannot be vague. They can only ask each other to intervene.
Yang Yuanqing understood what he meant, and dared to give up and choose the weapon that suits him the most. Although Yuwen Chengdu has unparalleled spears in the world, he gave up the horse spear and switched to the movement that is more suitable for his power. The same is true for him, Yang Yuanqing. Zhang Xutuo's sword technique can be used on a horizontal sword, but the long blade must be chosen to suit him the most. When he used Yang Sien's horse spear, he also felt his destination.
Yu Juluo held his shoulder and walked towards his big tent, "If you want to perform martial arts to others, you must use them in a complete set. It is fancy and beautiful, but if you are on the battlefield, you will not have any chance to use them, so whether it is boring, knife skills, or spear skills, you must learn the essence of these, use them in the battle, and adapt to the situation."
Yang Yuanqing nodded silently. His master Zhang Xutuo also said that the battlefield is not a performance, but accumulating experience through actual combat. He had a bloody battle with the Turkic patrol and had a deep understanding. He did not use any sword techniques, only Zhang Xutuo said the speed and strength.
The two walked into the big tent, Yu Juluo quickly walked to the back tent, took out a horse spear that was 1,7 feet long, and inserted it on the ground, "How about it, do you like it?"
Yang Yuanqing was stunned. How could there be such a long horse spear?
