    Chapter 541: The Jade Belt Around the Waist There are always many things that people can¡¯t understand in nature. Across a mountain called Langru Mountain, the winter in the northwest of the Sui Dynasty came early and it was so cold that it was hard to hold it out. Pee a little slower.  It's possible the baby got frostbite.  But the winter in the west of Langru Mountain is not so cold, and it is actually quite comfortable on days when there is no wind.  In addition to practicing every day, Fang Jie spent the rest of his time supervising the soldiers to get used to the horseback as soon as possible.  This is the most chaotic time in history, but it is also the most opportune time ever.  Otherwise, if the Han people wanted to live such a comfortable life on the grasslands, eating beef and mutton and riding Mongolian war horses would be a fantasy.  The veterans of Shanzi Camp are particularly proud because they are now masters, and each of them has to lead dozens of apprentices to practice riding.  As long as he offered war horses, cattle and sheep, Fang Jie would not trouble the weaker tribes, so the grassland people and the Han people got along harmoniously. There were even bold herdsmen who would sit on the high slopes and watch the Han soldiers clumsily  He climbed up on the horse's back and then fell off neatly, laughing.  Although they donated part of their wealth, they did not get nothing.  Because of the presence of this powerful Han army, those horse thieves who had become more and more rampant a while ago have become much more honest.  No matter where Fang Jie goes, the white lion will follow him.  Fang Jie had gradually become accustomed to having such a behemoth as his entourage. When the herdsmen saw the legendary white lion following the Han general, they became more and more in awe and even fear of the Han man named Fang Jie.  The influence of Buddhism has lasted for thousands of years on the grasslands, and herdsmen firmly believe in the ominous rumors of white lions.  By the way, they also confirmed that Fang Jie was the most evil person.  Some people even swore that this Fang Jie was the reincarnation of the great demon who was suppressed by King Ming a thousand years ago, and that he appeared to take revenge.  At first, the herdsmen thought that such a vicious and cruel man would cause a bloody storm on the grassland, but later they discovered that this young and handsome man had a good temper and was always easy-going.  "General, the soldiers are still not used to riding and shooting." Sun Kaidao pointed to the soldiers who were training and said: "Shooting a bow and arrow on a bumpy horseback, and hitting the target accurately, the men on the grassland have never  He started practicing as soon as he could climb on a horse, and he was proficient in bowing and horsemanship before he was ten years old. But until now, most of our people still climbed onto the horse, and becoming a qualified light cavalry is not something that can be done in a short time. " Fang Jie knew that Sun Kaidao was good at it.  He smiled and walked down the high slope, riding a white lion to the cavalry training field. He asked for a hard bow and a pot of feather arrows. He stopped in front of the crowd and said loudly: "I touched a bow for the first time.  It only took one month to hit the target fifty steps away, and it took three months to hit the target easily on a galloping horse. So don¡¯t tell yourself from the bottom of your heart that you can¡¯t do it We are all the same.  "The Meng Yuan people also have two arms and two legs. Can they do it?" Fang Jie pointed to his head and said, "What's more, the Meng Yuan people here are even worse than you." The soldiers laughed loudly.  Fang Jie mobilized the white lion and fired seven arrows in succession while running, and the arrow hit the red heart.  "I know you are used to it. After standing firm, you aim at the enemy and shoot arrows. But now you are cavalry. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if you don't know how to shoot arrows on horseback? First of all, you must know what the advantages of cavalry are. From now on, we will  Back in the Central Plains, when you had to fight the enemy, you rode your horses and flew past the enemy's formation with arrows, but the arrows they fired couldn't keep up with your speed." "You.  Remember one thing, the better you practice, the greater your chance of surviving on the battlefield, and the greater the chance that the enemy will die." "From now on," Fang Jie said loudly, "You guys should be careful.  The people led by the corps commander and brigade leader should be careful. If you are not the first group of people who are good at riding and shooting, your positions will be replaced by people who are better than you. You all start from scratch and compete fairly.  To keep your position, you must be familiar with horseback earlier than your subordinates. And soldiers, each of you has the opportunity to become the new corps commander and brigade commander!" The soldiers immediately burst into cheers, and  The lower-ranking officers looked worried.  Fang Jie saw their expressions and said: "What, are you scared? If you are scared, there is no need to compete, just go to the captain who is leading the team and say that you quit! If you do this, will you look down on yourselves in the future?"  The reason why you became officers is because you are better than your soldiers in infantry combat! But now you are not infantrymen. If you are not good enough, why do you still occupy the position of officers? " "Go ahead" Fang Jie  He said loudly: "After three months, I will personally supervise the competitions in each battalion. Whoever performs the best at that time will be directly promoted toLieutenant!  " "The general is mighty!  "The soldiers cheered, and the atmosphere became extremely warm. Fang Jie got off the white lion and strode up the high slope. Sun Kaidao said with a smile: "If this happens, the corps commanders below will probably feel unhappy.  It will be comfortable.  Fang explained: "If you want to feel comfortable, use your skills. Anyone under my command has the opportunity to become an officer. It depends on whether you work hard."  " "Where are the Northern Barbarians?  " He threw the stiff bow to the soldiers beside him and asked. "The scouts came to report that the northern barbarians entered the grassland from the north of Langru Mountain. They are now in Sele Banner. Sele Banner is a grassland in the northeastern part of Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty. Because of its remoteness, there are no grasslands.  Affected by the civil war in the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, the leader of the Sele Banner led his troops to obey the orders of the royal court. However, there were many soldiers left in the banner. It would not be easy for the northern barbarians to gain a foothold on the grassland with the stone hammers and wooden sticks in their hands.  Fang Jie hummed and said, "Fan Gucheng is supposed to send a message today, why hasn't it arrived yet?"  Sun Kaidao thought for a while and said: "The emperor was recruiting troops to expand the army in Jinyang. He sent people to Fan Gu three times to ask the defenders to bring a message to the general. You go to Jinyang to meet the saint."  The general didn't reply. He estimated that the emperor would send someone to prevent the transfer of news between Fan Gucheng and us.  " "The methods are becoming more and more despicable.  " Fang Jie shook his head. Sun Kaidao hummed: "It's just a disgusting method. The emperor does not dare to provoke a fight easily now.  The longer he delays in the northwest, the worse it will be for him.  Luo Yao had already marched into the south of the Yangtze River. Gao Kaitai's troops occupied Hedong Road and then invaded Suyuan Road, approaching the hinterland of the Central Plains.  The reason why the emperor has been able to persist despite his illness is because he is worried about the young prince and his courtiers disrupting the government and wants to rush back to help" "After winter, the emperor will probably launch troops against Gao Kaitai.  But" Sun Kaidao thought for a while and said: "Chen Xiaoru's Feiyu Pao got information that the emperor's body has almost collapsed these days, and he can't even walk by himself. He relies on Su Buwei to push him in a wheelchair.  Maybethe emperor simply can't wait for the warm spring.  " Fang Jie shook his head: "Sometimes I think about it, the Yang family's world is so stable, how can it be chaotic and dispersed at any time?  " "Solidity is only superficial" Sun Kaidao sighed: "The Sui Dynasty had only established the country for more than a hundred years, and the Yang family's attitude toward the people below was to allow them to target each other and weaken each other.  If people don't trust each other, how often do they secretly slander each other?  Over the past hundred years or so, the conflicts between the old and new aristocrats were instigated by the Yang family. They relied on the meritorious ministers who founded the country to suppress the famous families of the previous dynasty, and also used the aristocratic families of the previous dynasty to check and balance the meritorious ministers.  " "Conflicts have always been there, but the Yang family is strong enough to suppress them.  None of the emperors of the Great Sui Dynasty were weak, and they were all able to balance the forces of all parties with ease.  But now, the emperor is seriously ill and is about to die, and the prince is young. The few people the emperor trusts most who can be regarded as his ministers are actually unreliable, let alone others?  Fang Jie nodded: "How does the military advisor think it can be solved?"  " Sun Kaidao slowly shook his head: "I only know how to be a minister" Fang Jie sighed, thinking that being an emperor is such a hard job, not to mention having to deal with so many complicated things every day.  He sat down on the high slope and looked at the soldiers below in a daze. All he was thinking about was this question.  Things he would never think about before, perhaps because he was a little bored, actually thought about it a lot. The more he thought about it, the more he found that he had to admire the people of the Yang family for keeping the officials in check.  If there was a useless emperor, the government would have been in chaos. Because the life was comfortable enough, the soldiers realized that it was already time to celebrate the New Year. Time has flown by.  Time flies too fast. Their life is fulfilling and fun. After training every day, they return to the camp to rest. They don't have to worry about what kind of enemies they will face, so they are particularly relaxed when they reach Fang Jie's level of cultivation.  , no longer need to care about the alternation of cold and warmth. The soldiers put on thick cotton clothes, but he still looked more upright in a single robe. During these days, the man in the flying fish robe kept trying to infiltrate the royal court.  It's so difficult to achieve the appearance and language, and Chen Xiaoru's status in the Ouchi Guards Office is not high, he is only a hundred households, so he has no idea how many people the Ouchi Guards Department has arranged to lurk in Mengyuan.  Zhuo Buyi's position is not low, but he is the kind of person who would never ask Luo Weiran about this kind of thing. So now,Fang Jie can't use any of the guards in Meng Yuan.  Those people may know that he is in Mandu Banner, but because they are worried about the situation, no one is willing to expose him.  The chaos of the Sui Dynasty and the civil war between the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties gave them an opportunity to be ordinary people.  As long as they don't stand up themselves, they can maintain the lives they've become accustomed to.  They can put aside Feiyupao's identity and no longer have to worry about it.  There is no reliable news, not even news.  Fang Jie could not predict what would happen to Prince Zhong and Xiang Qingniu when they went to the Snowy Mountains. He knew that Prince Ming was seriously injured, but could an old monster with a thousand years of practice really have no means of saving his own life?  If Prince Ming was such a person, how could he be the only one in the past thousand years?  Yes, the current Buddhist sect is the weakest Buddhist sect in history, and the current Mingwang is the weakest Mingwang in history.  But Fang Jie always felt that the road for Prince Zhong to kill Prince Ming would not be so smooth.  There is also the mysterious Great Self-Heavenly Lord. It is said that if he does not leave Dalun Temple, he will be the first person under King Ming.  But this is too vague. Fang Jie doesn't know how strong King Ming is, so he can't guess how strong Da Zizuo is.  More and more people were sent out, but still found nothing.  On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, when the soldiers were ready to spend the first Spring Festival on the grassland, the rangers patrolling thirty miles outside the camp discovered a black spot in the distance, moving slowly.  .  They were immediately alert and surrounded them in a fan shape.  When they got closer, they realized it was a fat man with a dull face.  He walked like a machine, his lips were chapped, and his clothes were in tatters.  The boots were gone, and my feet were dark with mud.  His complexion was very poor, and he had not taken a shower for who knows how many days.  A few meters away, the unpleasant smell can rush into one's nose.  His hair was as messy as a chicken coop.  But there happened to be a clean-looking jade belt around his waist, which he held on to with one hand. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? being upright.
