Traveling through the troubled times of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Luo Cheng returned home in a hurry, Yan Lang was already waiting at the door, his lips were chapped and white, it seemed that he had just arrived not long ago, he didn't even bother to drink his saliva.

"what happened?"

Yan Lang opened his mouth, his throat was hoarse, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Luo Cheng knew that he must have been on the road for several days, so he ordered someone to serve refreshments. The latter took a breather and said better: "Shao Bao, Yang Lin sent a document to Wagang Village, saying that he didn't want to make a big move and hurt innocent people. Set up a long snake formation at the foot of Qilin Mountain. If someone in Wagang Village can break this formation, he promises to return to the countryside in the future and never interfere with the affairs of the Sui Dynasty. If the generals of Wagang Village cannot break this formation, Wagang Village will raise Flag down."

Luo Cheng frowned and said: "The long snake formation is composed of one hundred and one people. It is not a large formation, nor is it aimed at the army, but at the general. Although there are not many people, they are extremely dangerous."

"I've seen books about this kind of formation in my father's study. I think that in the Sui Dynasty, this long snake formation was used to deceive many generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty."

Yan Lang was startled and said: "Shao Bao, you really know this formation? The old man with a nose said that if there are still people in Wagang Village who can break this formation, Shaobao must be you. I thought he was bragging."

Luo Cheng frowned: "I know this formation is strange?" What's with your unbelievable expression.

Yan Lang smiled foolishly, rubbed his head and said in a daze: "Shao Bao, you are illiterate, how can you understand these formations?"

It hurts!Who said that your family's Shaobao is illiterate, I can still write family letters, at least there is one person in this world who can understand this letter.

Besides, even if I don't know how to read, it doesn't mean I don't understand formations, I have actual combat experience!Luo Chengjuan is not happy anymore, how can he try to demolish him, whether it is his subordinate or his enemy.

Xu Maogong thought more far-reaching, why he insisted that Luo Cheng would break this formation, he also took a fancy to Luo Cheng's identity.

Anyone can start a rebellion, be it a thieves, a peddler, a villager, a fisherman or a farmer.

But when it comes to something as profound as formations, ordinary people don't know how to do it.You have to have a deep level of culture, someone with background, and superb martial arts. To put it bluntly, reckless people like them are not competent.

Looking at the brothers in Wagangzhai, who can take on this important task?It must be Luo Cheng.

No, there is a saying that Yan Lang returned to Chang'an to move troops.

Luo Cheng sat at the head and said, "Tell me about the current situation in Wagang Village."

Yan Lang closed his smile, and said seriously: "Shao Bao, this formation is really weird. Yang Lin set up this formation, and Ding Yanping, one of the nine elders of the Sui Dynasty, was on the formation. After I sent Miss Ziyan off, when I came back, Wagang Four generals in the village have already died in the battle, and now everyone dare not act rashly."

Luo Cheng's heart tightened, and he quickly asked, "My cousin, fourth brother Cheng, are they all right?"

Speaking of this, Yan Lang immediately established the Great Demon Kingdom, and as soon as he talked about the canonization, he said with a smile: "Shao Bao, no, we should call you the Great General of the Protector of the Country. You arrange."

Luo Cheng was as happy as a child, sniffed and said, "My fourth brother Cheng is still very interesting."

"No, the brothers in Wagang Village are all looking forward to your return."

Luo Cheng's smile remained undiminished, and he proudly raised his head and said, "I can't just go back like this. Since Fourth Brother Cheng trusts me so much, I can't make it difficult for him. Yang Guang has made me feel aggrieved for so long. You have to charge some interest to go back."

"What does Shaobao mean?"

Luo Cheng was smiling like a little fox at the moment, either bad or bad: "Now is not the time to go back. When I go back, I will definitely prepare a generous gift for Fourth Brother Cheng and the others."

Yan Lang scratched his head in confusion.

"Let's not talk about that, I will go to the palace right now. Yesterday Yang Guang asked about the construction progress of Jinyang Palace. Yu Wenhua and that traitor didn't like me. They wanted to send me away, so they proposed to Yang Guang to send someone to go south first. One step, go to Li Yuan's mansion to supervise the progress of the construction of Jinyang Palace, and I will follow his wishes and invite Ying to supervise the progress of the project."

"You wait for me in the mansion. When I come back from the palace, we will go to Wagang Village in disguise to break the battle."

Yan Lang hesitated and said: "Then why don't we go to Shanxi? If Yang Guang asks the local officials in the future, what should he do if he knows that you haven't been to Taiyuan? Isn't that just cheating?"

Luo Cheng smiled and said: "I have the kindness to save lives from Tang Guogong Li Yuan's family. I am sworn brother to Li Yuan's son-in-law Chai Shaonai, and saved the third son of his family twice. He will not make things difficult for me. He will send someone to find out. Just a word will do."

Yan Lang came to a sudden: "So that's it, that's all right, I'm going to make preparations now, and when Shao Bao returns to your residence, we will leave."

The trip went very smoothly. As soon as Luo Cheng entered the palace, before he could speak, he was asked by Yang Guang whether he would like to go to Shanxi to supervise the construction of Jinyang Palace as the first marcher. Luo Cheng "bite the bullet" and agreed. She smiled so triumphantly that she couldn't bear to hit him.

Luo Cheng stepped out from the palace, Yu Wencheng stopped him first.

"You were transferred to oversee the construction of the Jinyang Palace... I'm sorry, my father's official position has been promoted again and again over the years, above ten thousand people, under one person, and his behavior has become more perverted and domineering, with no distinction between loyalty and traitor." Yu Wen Chengdu frowned. Although he had tried his best to reconcile with Luo Cheng, the two people's temperaments were completely different, and they were incompatible. Most of the reason was his father.

Luo Ben didn't want to have an in-depth conversation with him. In fact, he was the one who felt guilty.Yu Wencheng did not dare to tell him his heart and soul, but he also confided his heart, but he kept too many things from him.

Since he asked today, he asked casually: "If one day, your powerful father, risking the world's disgrace, killed your loyal monarch, what would you do?"

Yu Wencheng's eyes were startled, and then he fell into silence, and remained silent for a long time.

In Luo Cheng's eyes, Yu Wencheng's reaction changed slightly. It turned out that he had thought about this possibility a long time ago.

"No matter how wrong he is, he raised me, trained me, and brought me up. No matter how intolerable his behavior is in the world, it can't change that I shed the same blood as him. So, even if he beat me, scolded me Me, he is still my father."

Luo Cheng curled his lips and thought to himself, I knew you would say that, your adulterous father is always good in your eyes.

"But—" Yu Wencheng's tone changed, "There is a country to have a family. If he, Yu Wenhua, dares to harm the emperor, I will punish him first."

Yu Wencheng's eyes were clear, and his tone was firm, revealing a bitterness: "The righteousness is in the present, and there is no turning back. We only want to help the country!"

Luo Cheng was shocked, but he didn't expect to hear these words from Yu Wencheng's mouth.

However, Luo Cheng, who knew what the ending would be, felt sorry for Yu Wencheng. If Yu Huaji really wanted to kill Yang Guang and proclaim himself emperor, Yu Wencheng would not be aware of it.

When Yang Guang dies, the matter is a foregone conclusion, Yu Wenhua will be more affectionate, and Yu Wencheng will be more affectionate, even if he keeps hating him and parting ways, he may not necessarily take his life.

"What about me? If I'm the one who wants to kill your emperor, what would you do?" When Luo Cheng blurted out, he regretted it. Could it be that his status can be compared with his father's?

Yu Wencheng stared at him for a while, and said after a long time: "Don't you know?" After saying that, he strode away with his robe lifted.

Luo Cheng froze where he was, confused, and muttered: "You didn't tell me, how would I know..."

After leaving the palace, saving people was like putting out a fire. Luo Cheng rushed to Wagang Village without stopping. Three days later, at dusk, several riders took advantage of the dark night to enter Wagang Village.

At this time, Wagangzhai had already hung up the exemption card for ten days.

Yang Lin and Ding Yanping's army was stationed at the foot of the Wagangzhai Mountain more than a dozen miles away. What they had to do every day was to raise their voices and shout. Start cursing, how hard you can scold, until you jump your feet, and because of this, some generals can't stand it, can't stand this useless spirit, and go down the mountain privately to enter the battle, only to die in the battle.

Now, Xu Maogong is also in a hurry, and he summoned all the generals to one place, not to let everyone die in vain, no matter what Yang Lin and the others scolded, they just pretended not to hear, closed the city gate, and waited for Luo Cheng arrival.

For the full sixteen days, I became a turtle with a shrinking head for the sixteenth day.

Now hearing from the guards that the Great General Protecting the Nation has already entered the mountain, Cheng Yaojin, Xu Maogong and others went to the hall to greet him hand in hand, thinking to himself, finally he can feel elated.

In the camp of the Sui army, Yang Lin was entertaining Ding Yanping and other generals. They were having a good time drinking and talking.

The generals felt a little complacent when they saw that the thieves were terrified and could not come down the mountain all day long. One of Yang Lin's Twelve Taibaos, the Great Taibao, said, "Father, I don't think this great demon country can do anything anymore." , keep him trapped for a few more months, and when the food and grass in the mountains are exhausted, we won't need to take action to win a big victory."

The Second Taibao also sang and said: "What kind of people are there in the Great Demon Kingdom, salt smugglers, peddlers...these people can also fight? What a joke."

The days are going well, and Yang Lin is also in a good mood, so he burst out laughing.

Just as he was happy, he suddenly heard a report from outside, saying that the documents from the Great Demon Kingdom on the mountain had arrived.

The Great Taibao laughed and said, "It must have come to beg for mercy from the adoptive father."

The Taibao also agreed with a smile.

When Yang Lin opened the letter happily, and took a closer look, the knuckles of the right hand holding the document were pinched white.

"This group of thieves are killing me! How dare I make this old man kneel down and beg for mercy."

"It's such a big tone, what did you say that if you knelt down to plead guilty to the four thieves who died in vain in the battle, and kowtowed to the emperor of the Great Demon Kingdom to beg for mercy, then I will spare this old man! I have been on the battlefield for so many years, and no one has dared to do this Talk to the old man."

Ding Yanping also took a look at the letter, frowned and said: "I always feel that this matter is not so simple. It has been more than half a month, and the thieves have been staying behind closed doors. If there is such a capable person who can break through the formation, how can they be so simple?" Can you bear it for so long?"

Yang Lin put his hands on his hips, blew his beard and stared: "That is to say, is he crazy in the Great Demon Kingdom? Just a few days ago, four generals died, and the martial arts of those four were also amazing, but they couldn't stand half a stick of incense in the battle." .Now, dare to utter wild words here, making the old man kneel down and bow down!"

Who said the words in this document that Yang Lin was so angry that he would not pay for his life?

Isn't it the tone of Luo Cheng's youth.

Yang Lin settled down, and immediately gave orders, from the snake head to the tail, the snake core, the snake gall, and the snake body. , After a while, it seems foolproof.

On the second day, just before dawn, there was the sound of drums beating at Wagang Village.

Only then did Yang Lin realize that the gang of thieves in Wagangzhai really wanted to fight, and they were not joking with him.

Yang Lin reined in his horse and walked forward, just wondering why he didn't see people coming from Wagang Village to break the formation.Just at this time, the gate of Wagang Walled City was opened wide, and five masked men were seen riding tall horses, standing in front of the formation lined up.

"Who am I? It turned out to be the backer king who rolled off his horse and knelt down to beg for mercy."

Yang Linda suddenly fired three feet.

Back then, he fell into his trick and was caught off guard for a moment. Someone chopped off the front hoof of his horse, lost his balance, rolled, and fell to the ground. He knelt down on one knee to stabilize himself. The kid said he was kneeling down and begging for mercy, would he still be famous for his life?Really mad at him!

These days, Yang Lin wondered why he didn't see that treacherous masked boy, but now he did see him, but this kid is not slippery, seeing him, it must be a bad thing.

Luo Cheng led the horse, and said with a smile: "Yang Lin, if you don't surrender now, don't cry when you lose later."

Yang Lin was already annoyed, but now he was even more furious: "Little Huangkou, you got away with a trick in the woods, and you dared to take advantage of the old man today."

"Your kid hides his head and shows his tail, do you have a name?"

Luo Cheng said with a smile: "I will give you the words I gave to Wei Wentong intact - if you die, I will tell you who I am."

Yang Lin's heart suddenly snapped, his tiger's eyes rounded: "Say it again, boy, did you kill Wei Wentong?"

"His sword skills are pretty good, but it's a pity that his strength is low, and his own weapons can't protect him."

Luo Cheng's expression of regret turned into a naked provocation in Yang Lin's eyes.

Immediately, his brows became furious, whether his eyes were white or black, they almost turned blood red, Yang Lin shouted, "Come here—set up the formation! This king wants to avenge General Wei!"

"Boy, let's not say that five people are entering the formation today, even if 50 people are entering the formation, I will also clean up for you!"

Luo Cheng grinned grinningly: "I am the only one who entered the formation, and the other four are all for me."

The young man's voice was extremely clear, echoing in the valley: "I am enough to break the long snake formation."
