On the way to escape famine, my parents divorced

(Thanks to Hongtangbao for voting for 1 monthly ticket.)
In the end, Li Shiyue and Li Xiatian stayed behind, while Li Qiutian and Shitou rode their horses back to Liujiatun.

This was because Yan Jiuniang begged them to stay and keep her company, otherwise it would be boring for her to stay here alone.

"In fact, I didn't really want to come here, but when I returned to the palace, the princess said that I should stay in the palace and wait for my marriage, and I should look like a bride-to-be.

I was so annoyed that I begged the prince to ask my eldest brother to take me out to see the excitement of the market.

Who would have known that after arriving here, it was only as fun as when I was in your village before. After we set up camp here yesterday, my brother didn't allow me to run around anymore.

He said that if I ran into unreasonable Turks, he would not let me out because he was afraid that I would suffer. "

Moreover, Yan Jiuniang was very good at seizing the curiosity of Li Shiyue and the others: "Why don't you stay and accompany me for a few days?
The competition will be tomorrow, you can watch it with me from the front.

If you were outside, you wouldn’t necessarily be able to see anything.”

After hearing Yan Jiuniang's words, Li Shiyue and Li Xiatian were really moved!

So, the responsible Li Qiutian took Shitou and rode back to Liujiatun to inform Li's mother and Zheng Meiniang.

However, Yan Jiuniang still told the guard that when Li Qiutian came again tomorrow, he could come directly into the inner area with his credentials.

As for how Li Shiyue and Li Xiatian got into the camp of King Zhenbei and his men, and also entered Yan Jiuniang's tent?
Of course they went to find General Liu Tan. With Liu Tan's permission, can they go anywhere?

In Yan Jiuniang's tent, three people slept huddled together on a wide couch for the whole night.

The next day, the first person to wake up was Li Shiyue. She had fallen asleep last night listening to the voices of Yan Jiuniang and Li Xiatian.

She never knew that Yan Jiuniang and Li Xiatian had so much to talk about. From the milk lumps they ate outside to the pros and cons of living in a tent, the two of them kept talking in bed.

By the time the three of them had finished packing, the troops outside had already begun to gather.

The female guard who was guarding outside brought the horses and walked out with a few people.

After running for about a quarter of an hour, the horse arrived at a large open space.

Just by standing here on the periphery, Li Shiyue could see that the Turkic army and the Han army were clearly confronting each other, like two parallel lines that would never merge.

After all, it is quite easy to distinguish the Black Armor Army from the Turkic Army with pigtails.

Li Shiyue and Li Xiatian followed Yan Jiuniang on horseback, and were led by female guards to their rightful positions, in front of which was General Liu Tan.

The two people in front of Liu Tan were King Zhenbei and Liu Shu.

When Liu Tan saw the three of them coming up, he nodded to them and looked at Yan Jiuniang with one expression in his eyes: "Behave yourself!"

Li Shiyue craned his neck to look forward. Just looking at Liu Shu's back was quite good. It seemed that the wound on his lower abdomen that was stabbed by the girl had indeed healed.

At this moment, Liu Shu was also wearing a martial arts uniform and riding in front of the horse with King Zhenbei. Looking at his back, he looked quite stylish, like a prince.

Before Li Shiyue could finish complaining in his mind, a loud horn sounded next to his ears.

"Woo--," when this sound rang out, people's faces became solemn. They straightened their backs and looked at the two armies that were confronting each other in the field.

Li Shiyue frowned and looked at the two groups facing each other in front of him. After the horn sounded, the Turkic army started to wave their scimitars and shout "zhiwa" on horseback.

Li Shiyue naturally didn't understand the Turkic language, but with her eyesight, just by looking at the appearance of those Turkic cavalrymen, she knew that the words they shouted were not pleasant words. However, the black armored army on her side was in neat formation, and no one was shouting or yelling. Instead, they were as disciplined as if they were holding a gag in their mouths.

"Your Majesty! Please give the order!"

Liu Tan looked at the King of Zhenbei. After the King of Zhenbei nodded, he looked at the person sitting on horseback in front of the opposite army. Li Shiyue guessed from behind that the person the King of Zhenbei looked at should be the Great Khan of the Turks.

King Zhenbei raised his right arm and gave the order: "Change formation!"

As soon as the King of Zhenbei finished speaking, Liu Tan rode his horse forward. He made a gesture to the soldiers beside him, and Li Shiyue heard the sound of "dong dong" drums.

The drum sound seemed to be right next to my ears, but also seemed to be coming from all directions.

As the drum beats, the Black Armor Army also changed its formation. Only then did Li Shiyue realize that the change in formation was to encircle the opposing Turkic Army!
At this time, King Zhenbei raised his hand again, and the deafening slogan of "Ten thousand victories! Ten thousand victories!" was roared out from the mouths of these black-armored black-armored soldiers!

Li Shiyue, who was in the middle of it, was shocked at this moment!
How could people who have come from peacetime not be moved by such a scene?

With weapons and spears everywhere, people on guard with weapons ready for action at any moment, and swords drawn, how can one not be excited in the face of such an atmosphere?
The people on the opposite side seemed to be afraid of the Black Armor Army's change of formation, and the few people in the front rode their horses towards this side.

"Ashina Tuji meets the King of Zhenbei!"

The Great Khan of the Turkic people took the lead and punched his left chest with his right fist, performing the Turkic greeting etiquette to the King of Zhenbei.

The King of Zhenbei just nodded in response to the greeting, but did not salute the Turkic Khan.

However, the Great Khan of the Turkic Empire drove his horse forward and came in front of the King of Zhenbei. Liu Tan was about to go forward, but was stopped by the King of Zhenbei.

The Great Khan of the Turkic Empire leaned over and said something to the Prince of Zhenbei. Li Shiyue was quite far away from them, so even though she had extraordinary five senses, she didn't hear anything.

What surprised Li Shiyue was that the Great Turkic Khan spoke Chinese quite well, at least better than that foreigner in the mountains like Has.

After just a few breaths, Liu Tan received a signal from King Zhenbei, and the first stage of the competition began.

The first round is also simple, it is just archery, but the player shoots arrows at the moving prey placed in the field while riding on a horse.

The small animals include rabbits, and the big animals include sheep and cows.

Li Xiatian became interested in archery. She squeezed the horse's belly and moved forward a little, wanting to see it closer.

Li Shiyue did not move forward, as her eyesight was enough to see clearly.

After the first round, the Turks won as expected.

Li Shiyue was not surprised at all. After all, for the Turks who grew up on the grasslands, riding and shooting were as common as drinking water and eating.

Even if the Black Armor Army selected people with talent in archery, it would still be difficult to defeat the Turks in terms of quantity.

Therefore, in the next second round, the Xuanjia Army must win!

Otherwise, as Yan Jiuniang said, if we lose the competition, we will suffer losses in the trade. Who would be willing to do that?

When Li Shiyue was still waiting to watch the second round, he suddenly heard the Turkic Khan with a small braid in front of him laughing.

"Haha, haha, haha, how interesting is this kind of competition?
Your Majesty, why don't we learn from you Han people and offer prizes to boost the morale of our soldiers?" (End of this chapter)
