The Snowy Path of the Heroic Blade Chapter 303: The Overlord of Western Chu (5)

c_t; Gu Jiantang's words are no less than he used a square inchlei, but Xu Fengnian didn't get a shock after hearing the words, so he waved his hand to a small second in a distant shop for more bowls of dumplings, and then asked with a smile. Said: "A big bowl contains more than 20 dumplings. The entire Liyang territory is only 30 states. One dumpling is worth one state? General Gu doesn't think this sale is a big loss?"

Gu Jiantang smiled and didn't answer. He seemed to be just a hungry passenger, waiting patiently for the thin-skinned dumplings. [Full text reading]

Xu Fengnian gobbled and ate fast before, and naturally sipped **** mud slowly. Xu Fengnian took the lead to put down his chopsticks and let out a sigh of satisfaction with the taste of Chinese cabbage. Gu Jiantang looked at Gu Jing not waved, and looked at the young clan king calmly. There is a difference in age between the two, but in the final analysis, there is still a difference of "Spring and Autumn." The older generation of the four great generals in the Spring and Autumn Period, Da Chu Ye Baikui has the most correct use of soldiers, and has had more than 70 battles in his life, without a single defeat, but unfortunately in the end. After losing just one game to the West Barrier, you lose all. The king of Dongyue horseman is the most auspicious of spring and autumn. He can always turn decay into magic and make good use of the magic weapon. He can always surprise people. He can win battles that cannot be won, but he can also lose battles that cannot be lost, and his opponents feel that he loses. Inexplicable, so the most talented, but the lowest achievement reads;. Xu Xiao's personal strategy is the most inferior, but the victory lies in perseverance, toughness, and repeated defeats. No matter how defeated, he can always come back to life, even if the death is still there. Therefore, the Xu family's military heart is always united. The last laugh. Gu Jiantang is inferior to Ye Wang, but the victory lies in the fact that there is no shortcoming in the use of soldiers, so while he has achieved brilliant results on the battlefield in this life, he can only lose a small loss and never lose a big defeat. Xu Xiao of Liaodong, Gu Jiantang entered the Spring and Autumn Period a little later, one step was late, and in the end only the merits of the two countries were achieved, while Xu Xiao had the merits of the six countries in his hands. Most military historians and political strategists in the Liyang court did not think that Gu Jiantang's deployment of troops and generals was inferior to Xu Xiao, but lost in "Xu early and late, Gu is not in time".

And Gu Jiantang’s life and deeds are intriguing. After staying in the capital as the Minister of War, he broke up the old part to various places in Liyang, such as Cai Nan, Dong Gonghuang and others, who all served as local officials of the border, Tai'an City Although Gu Lu and Zhang Julu's Zhang Lu had a double-peak confrontation, they only said that the blue-eyed right was in the hands of the people, and there was no saying that Gu Jiantang only covered the sky with his hand. Gu Jiantang, as one of the ten martial arts masters in the previous martial arts critics, never cared about rankings, and had never been to Wudi City to compete with Wang Xianzhi, as the world's first person to use swords, let alone use swords. For more than a decade, except for Cao Changqing and Jiang Si who broke into Tai'an City in the first year of Xiangfu, Gu Jiantang used Fang Cun Lei as a Wuchen to stop him. There has been no news that Gu Jiantang took the initiative to fight against others. News. For 20 years, Gu Jiantang has stood firm in the Liyang Chaotang. No one has ever questioned the loyalty of this heroic general. The first emperor Zhao Dun did not, the new emperor Zhao Zhuan did not, and the Manchu civil and martial arts did not. In the eyes of Li Yang, this veteran soldier Bu Shang Shu is not only the best candidate to fight against Beiliang Iron Cavalry, but also Liyang’s biggest backbone, the silent Gu Jiantang, just like the existence of heirlooms in ordinary people’s homes. If you don’t show it to others, it means that the family is still there and the confidence is still there, so even if The war on Guangling Road last year was so corrupt that Gu Jiantang, who was in charge of the border defense of the two Liao Dynasty, never led troops south, and the people of Liyang still did not think that the Western Chu rebels could be successful.

But today, at the critical moment when Xichu is doomed to collapse, it is this Liyang Dynasty's only big pillar country who said that a young man who does not have a surname Zhao will be the emperor.

Xu Fengnian looked at Gu Jiantang, who was sitting opposite, picked up the chopsticks and gently poked the oily tabletop, watching him pick up a dumpling and began to chew slowly. Xu Fengnian's face remained as usual. That was the result of countless battles. Strength, but does not hinder the stormy waves in his heart.

Gu Jiantang ate seven or eight dumplings in one breath, paused for a while, looked up at the young feudal lord with only one side, glanced at the sensitive young woman next to him, and said calmly: "Don't believe it? Today? Today’s Gu, does he need to fool anyone with words?"

Three trips to the rivers and lakes plus a great battle and two trips to the capital, Xu Fengnian is no longer a stunned young man, and smiled: "Could it be that you are not looking for Cao Changqing on this trip to the south, but I will do it. Stop you?"

Gu Jiantang picked up a dumpling, shook his chopsticks lightly, and shook off some green onion, not eager to put it in his mouth, shook his head and said: "If you don't come, I will go straight to Tai'an City to kill Cao Changqing and replace it with Before, facing the Confucian sage Cao Changqing, I had a four-point chance of winning at most, and naturally I couldn’t kill the overbearing Cao Changqing. At this time, no one could stop Cao Changqing, but he insisted on using his manpower to fight the sky and kill Liyang. The Zhao room’s temperament, then I will have the opportunity to take advantage of it. Since you are here, it’s better. I believe you already know why I have a murderous intention towards Cao Changqing. Originally, he promised me that once the Western Chu incident is done, Jiang’s will become After the Central Plains Communist Party, all the exploits of Beimang will go to me. I will not refuse this invitation."

Xu Fengnian frowned and said: "Xi Chu is defeated, isn't it the same? You Gu Jiantang don't even have to bear a momentary infamy."

Gu Jiantang sneered: "What have I done in the past 20 years? Isn't it a last resort to raise the bandits? There is Xu Xiao in the northwest and Zhang Julu in the middle of the dynasty. Only then can Gu Jiantang be safe and secure. You feudal kings, don’t forget that there is also the word “town” in the Guangling war. How many generals who would never die, and how many generals have been reduced? All the cavalry forces including Yan Zhenchun are gone, Yang Shenxing’s Jizhou There are few pawns left, Guangling King Zhao Yi’s naval infantry is all broken, and Huainan King Zhao Ying died in battle. [There are almost all books I want to read. It’s more stable than a normal station, and it’s faster to update. Full text has no ads. .] How do the civil servants have high authority and power? The emperor finds a crime and says that he kills when he kills. But the frontier generals say that he kills when he kills them? There is also no literati's worries about the infamy in the history of history. Instead of me, Gu Jiantang, as the emperor, for the sake of the long-term family and the world, I must also emphasize literature and restrain martial arts."

Gu Jiantang ate the dumplings and slowly said, "Do you think that the first emperor Zhao Dun didn't act on me before he died? Not to mention that Tang Tieshuang Tianzong and others from my old ministry came to Beijing as officials, just like Lu Sheng and Xu Gong. People are clearly used to replace my candidates. Xu Gong replaced the emperor to patrol the border. Lu Shengxiang used the Guangling war to accumulate resumes. The two used them but did not reuse them. Why? To be used in the future war in Beimang, they have to grow their wings. After all, they still have a long way to go. To put it ugly, they will have more than ten or two decades of military service, and they will be the second Gu Jiantang. At that time, the overall situation of Liyang has been solidified. It is easier to ask them to remove their armour and return to the field than to ask me Gu Jiantang to roll up the bed and get out. , How can I, Gu Jiantang, wait and die? How does the Zhao family treat the heroes, do I need to say more?"

Gu Jiantang picked up another dumpling and couldn't help but glance at the female emperor of Chu with a sword box on his back, laughing playfully, "Xu Fengnian, knowing what reason Cao Changqing and she used to persuade me when they found me at the time Right?"

Xu Fengnian suddenly became angry and gritted his teeth and said: "Damn! Did Cao Changqing promise one of your sons to be...'Queen'?! If that's the case, I won't stop you, I'll give you Gu Jiantang as a helper reads ;! See if I don’t beat Cao Changqing, I won’t be overbearing at all!"

One of Xu Fengnian's instep under the table was severely stomped and crushed repeatedly. Maybe it is because one foot is not strong enough, someone is a little shorter, and both feet are on the back of Xu Fengnian's instep.

Gu Jiantang laughed dumbly, "Cao Changqing is not so...boring. Cao Changqing only said that he could allow me to step down on Beimang, and he also dared to let me lead his army to accomplish a feat that Xu Xiao failed to accomplish. Reasons Well, it’s very simple. Before Cao Changqing was alive, Gu Jiantang would not be able to rebel because he could die with me. Even if Cao Changqing died before me, he would dominate the Central Plains and annex the Great Chu of Beimang. Someone, as long as I dare to plot wrongdoing, someone can single-handedly kill me Gu Jiantang, and that person will definitely live longer than me, so no matter how powerful the Gu family is, it is destined to live well in 50 years. As for the specific situation in 50 years, Jiang The Gu family is nothing more than complying with the destiny. In this case, I have no worries, and I am not afraid of the master of the high power. I know how Dachu Jiang treats Ye Baikui, and how Liyang Zhaoshi treats Xu Xiao."

Xu Fengnian rubbed his chin, squinted and said with a smile: "That's the truth."

Looking at the triumphant guy, the muddy **** that hadn't finished eating dumplings snapped his chopsticks on the white bowl.

Xu Fengnian didn't have a guilty conscience, but stared at him: "A bowl of dumplings is enough for five cents! There are six dumplings in the bowl, and a penny is wasted. Don't you feel bad? Anyway, I don't have any money, wait for you to check out!"

Jiang Ni was stunned at first, then let out a cold snort, but in the end he still picked up his chopsticks silently.

Gu Jiantang, who is as tough as a rock, is also a little bit dumbfounded.

Gu Jiantang shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "Similarly, when you were Emperor Xu Fengnian, Xu Xiao was kind to the old ministry, and you personally battled in the back. Gu Jiantang, I am not afraid of two things before and after my life."

Xu Fengnian sighed and murmured: "Be the emperor."

Gu Jiantang picked up the last dumpling in the bowl and said with a smile: "Xu Fengnian, I am curious whether Xu Xiao has ever thought of rebellion in his life, or has he ever thought of asking you to sit in a dragon chair?"

Xu Fengnian did not answer this question, and asked, "How do you know how Cao Changqing persuaded Wang Sui? How does Wang Sui feel now?"

Gu Jiantang hesitated, "The former is simple, Wang Sui has been unable to let go of the Dongyue imperial family who became a rung of Liyang, Cao Changqing should have promised that in the future, the children of the Dongyue imperial family will be able to serve as official or even make Hou worship reads;. As for the latter, It’s hard to say, maybe Wang Sui really helped Beimang to invade the Central Plains from the south. Life and death are divided. After all, he and I are mortal enemies, and he also has a lot of resentment for the Xu Family's extinction in the Spring and Autumn Period."

Xu Fengnian said with emotion: "Everyone can't let go of Spring and Autumn."

After eating the dumplings, Gu Jiantang put down his chopsticks and looked at Xu Fengnian.

Xu Fengnian regained his senses, "If there is no accident, I will go south in the autumn this year. I will try my best to convince Wang Sui not to be that **** stick even if he doesn't cooperate with you and me."

Gu Jiantang nodded and said solemnly: “It’s the best. Jiaodong King Zhao Sui has promised me that he will remain neutral no matter how the situation changes. As long as you can persuade Wang Sui to stand still, after the Liang Mang battle is deadlocked, I will Gu Jiantang. Personally led the two elites of the Liao Dynasty into the hinterland of the desert and cut off the connection between Beimang, Southern Dynasty and Beiting in one go! At that time, you and I will have Beiliang and Southern Dynasty as the depth, with a total of 500,000 troops and 200,000 cavalry. , And do not worry about the source of troops, advance and retreat freely, even if you are caught between the two countries of Beimang and Liyang, what is there to be afraid of?!"

Xu Fengnian was silent for a moment, and suddenly patted the table.

Jiang Ni was startled, Gu Jiantang's eyelids trembled.

Just listen to Xu Fengnian shouting loudly: "Man, three more bowls of dumplings!"

Jiang Ni took a deep breath, darkened his face, and muttered reluctantly: "Two bowls are enough."

But the next sentence from the prodigal son who didn't spend her own money and didn't feel sorry for her was soon relieved. Xu Fengnian said to Gu Jiantang: "I'm going to trouble Mr. Gu to help raise the money today. My wife and I are both shy in our pockets. I can’t wait for a copper plate to be broken into two halves..."

Gu Jiantang said without a smile: "Oh? That one bowl is enough. I'm just like Miss Jiang, I'm not hungry."

Jiang Ni blushed and said softly: "Otherwise, two bowls, right? I want another bowl too."

The shop clerk stood aside and said impatiently: "Guardian, how many bowls are there? The three bowls are only 15 characters, as for!"

Gu Jiantang from the Great State of Liyang said a bowl.

Emperor Jiang Si of Chu said two bowls.

Northern Liang King Xu Fengnian said three bowls of reads;.

The store clerk stared at the three people in a daze, and said annoyed: "Well, the three of you can't be detained anymore. Today I will pay you three bowls of dumplings for nothing!"

Three bowls of hot and fragrant dumplings were brought to the table. Gu Jiantang finished eating first. After getting up and leaving with Xu Fengnian, he led the horse to the stall owner, leaving behind the Liaodong horse worth hundreds of taels of silver and returning north alone.

The stall owner and the guy looked at each other, and the last two laughed from ear to ear.

After Xu Fengnian finished eating dumplings, he waited quietly for the **** mud to finish eating. When he saw Jiang Ni put the chopsticks on the edge of the bowl, he smiled and helped her remove the chopsticks from the bowl and put them neatly on the table next to the white bowl. "Old Xu's one of the few rules, chopsticks after eating Cannot be placed on the bowl."

She blushed, blinked, and asked in a low voice: "What are you really going to be?"

Xu Feng said in a young voice: "Gu Jiantang's words are credible but impossible to believe. It is terrible for a person to endure from Hong Jiayin to Yonghui to Xiangfu."

Jiang Ni nodded and said: "I don't like this person. Uncle Qi Da Zhao said that your father is out of Lin Hu, Ye Baikui is a riverside dragon, Wang Sui is a Jiantou python, Gu Jiantang is a cave snake, the first three He is a hero who can ignore his life and death, but Gu Jiantang has the most gloomy and unpredictable mind."

Xu Fengnian said, "I will be careful."

Jiang Ni has a big heart, and I've heard everything from Gu Jiantang to being an emperor. She suddenly became sad and said pitifully, "Can't you save the chess and wait for Uncle Zhao? If Beiliang has chess waiting Uncle makes suggestions, so you don’t have to be so tired."

Xu Fengnian said helplessly: "It's not that I don't want to save it, but that it can't be saved or it can't be saved."

Since a long time, Jiang Ni suddenly said cautiously: "Uncle Chess has calculated you, don't be angry."

Xu Fengnian shook his head and smiled: "It doesn't matter whether I am angry or not. I only know that the overlord of Western Chu is very angry with this world, so I have to take the Tai'an city to vent my anger."

The little clay man lowered his head, began to wipe his tears, and sobbed: "I don't want to wait for Uncle Zhao to die."

Xu Fengnian didn't know how to comfort her, but said softly: "The Spring and Autumn Period is really over."

————

Tai'an City, once the arrow rain hasn't stopped, the blue shirt is pouring frantically towards reads;.

But the descendants outside the city are getting faster and faster. Almost a beam of light has just hit the top of Tai'an City. The second beam of light that falls from the Nine Heavens is right behind. Every time a beam of light falls into the world, then All the arrows were smashed in mid-air, unable to get close at all.

The eaves of the palaces and pavilions in Tai'an City were broken, and the bells and drums of the temples and Taoist temples were also a little low. It was already lower than the high platform and pavilion, and had to hover anxiously under the eaves.

The thawing of the spring is getting warmer, and the fishes in the rivers, lakes and pools that were swimming leisurely begin to jump out of the water, echoing the birds in the sky.

The Chai Qingshan on the head of the city has already shot a sword, and the long sword "Wild Fox" he carries truly shows the momentum of a sword from the earth. , So that between Chengtou and the chess player in Qingshan, a huge white rainbow in the shape of an arc hung.

Bai Hong rose from the head of the city and landed on the top of Qingshan Cao Changqing's head. As a result, Bai Hong was like hitting an impenetrable invisible mine pool, splashing a large group of sparks and electric light, and the sound pierced the eardrum.

The Sect Master of Dongyue Sword Pond with all eyebrows raised his arms high and pulled the Qi engine. The wild fox was spinning around Cao Changqing, who was sitting cross-legged. Unfortunately, no matter how great the momentum is, the flying sword is just like a headless fly. When you hit, you should never be within three feet of the body.

When the flying sword was overwhelmed and broken, Chai Qingshan swallowed the blood flowing to his throat, took a step forward, brought **** together, pointed forward, and sighed "borrow the sword" softly. The long sword he was carrying suddenly went out of its sheath and swam far away, like a young flood dragon out of the water, and a cyan gas as thick as the mouth of a well hit straightly.

Today's Liyang rivers and lakes, although not to the point where the incense is withered, but people with a discerning eye can see a situation of turning from prosperity to decline. It is rumored that Huang Sanjia has reversed the practice and poured the residual gas of the Spring and Autumn Eight Kingdoms into the pond of the rivers and lakes. Therefore, In the past two decades, the water is full and the martial arts forest in Liyang seems to be overgrown with vigor and vitality, but in fact, the outstanding trees have been broken one after another, and there is not much left. The fire will not last long.

This city of goodness in the world, Gu Jiantang and Xie Guanying are no longer in the city, but Yang Taisui, Han Shengxuan, Liu Haoshi and Qi Jiajie died one after another. The Qintian supervising practitioners were killed and injured. Ruined in the hands of Xu Fengnian.

So Chai Qingshan had to stand up.

The old man is a sect, an apprentice, and his own kendo.

When the long sword in the girl’s sheath came like a dragon, Cao Changqing remained indifferent, with a calm smile, holding her right hand, and brushing her left hand over the right cuff, as if whispering: "In my great Chu, there were people who used soldiers to do better. , 72 big and small battles, without a single defeat, reads fascinated;."

Gently drop the child.

The flying sword with a mighty rainbow leaned into the ground three feet away, like a huge rock hitting the ground, and the dust was flying.

Cao Changqing didn’t look at the long sword, but just watched a black piece jump out of the chess box, followed the piece’s sight and landed on the chessboard, and at the same time stretched out his hand to pick up a sleek and cool white piece, smiled and said, “I have a poem in my heart. The text is like a bow of a hundred stones, a crossbow of a thousand catties, like a full moon hung above the head of a common man. It is magnificent for the younger generation to give birth to the idea of ​​only kowtow and no speech."

When a son fell, the inscriptions at the gate of the Chinese prison in Tai'an City cracked inch by inch.

"Someone in my great Chu talked about if there is a **** possessed, but the chess piece under the wrist is tapped like a violent general to kill, and the courage is extraordinary."

A son fell, and Cao Changqing slightly straightened the slightly offset rooted white chess. At the same time, all the crossbow arrows that shot at his "opposite person" were blown away quickly by a stern wind. Slide out of the original track.

"I am the people of Chu, the galaxy is splendid, and there have been fables, eminent monks, and real people preaching. Why should the world envy heaven."

On the chessboard, black and white pieces are flying.

Wu Jian, the ancestor of the Wu Family Sword Tomb, finally made a move. This family school is the swordsman of the world, not from the city.

From the outer city to the imperial city, the gates opened at the same time, and then there was a small but extremely long sword energy, from north to south, all the way south.

This ray of sword aura has the mighty momentum that Qianqi smashed.

Chai Qingshan didn't turn his head after he took out the sword, but Wu still didn't turn his head after seeing the sword.

Cao Changqing whispered: "During the spring and autumn, the wind and rain are precarious, some people cry with headaches, some hide from the rain under the eaves, some borrow umbrellas to hide from the rain, but I will never avoid the rain, I would rather die in the rain than live under the fence ."

Sword Qi stagnated a little bit outside Cao Changqing's three feet, and suddenly forcefully slammed into two and a half feet away.

The layers of continuous psychic energy are layered on top of each other, and the sword energy does not slowly dissipate until two feet away.

When the second sword qi came out of the city, a beam of light happened to hit the head of the old man at the gate of the imperial city.

The old Patriarch of the Wu Family Sword Tomb raised his hand and waved his sleeve to smash it to pieces. His face was a little pale, and the ground he was standing on was even more sunken.

In a straight line from the front to the Royal Road outside Tai'an City Zhengnan City, the cracks appearing on the ground are just like a long sword.

This sword is not more than an inch wide, but it is several miles long.

In an instant, Jian Qi was about to leave the city.

Cao Changqing just landed on the nearest chessboard in front of him.

At the beginning of the imperial road inside the city gate, a beam of light fell, like a long sword cutting a long snake.

Wu Jian, who originally went out of the city with Jian Qi, stood at the gate of the city, without a sword in his hand, but made a sword-drawing gesture and shouted: "Cao Changqing! It's not easy to come by, it's a shore to turn back!"

Cao Changqing picked up a piece, this time the piece at his fingertips smashed without waiting for him to place it.

A white sword light appeared out of thin air in the sky above him.

Then there was a huge crash, like a drum in the morning and evening.

Everyone in the city's headland unanimously stared at the same place. They only saw the dusty place where the blue shirt was sitting, and they could not clearly see the figure of that person.

When the dust settles, everyone is in awe at the same time.

Not only did Cao Changqing not die by that sword, but he continued to remain motionless.

At his location, the ground soil has been cut a few feet away, so Cao Changqing just sat in the air.

The star-studded black and white chess pieces on the chessboard are even more immobile.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar with frosty white temples finally raised his head. Instead of looking at the Patriarch of Jian Tomb in the city gate to the north, he turned his head and looked south, and said softly: "You live and die like this. Chu, I am here, always."

At this moment, almost everyone trembled.

A woman in purple stood up from a tall building in Tai'an City.

She lightly landed on the imperial road.

She leaned forward slightly and started to run out of the city.

The spirit, spirit and spirit, all are the peaks of the world.

So much so that the ancestors of Wu's Jianzhong who stood at the end of the imperial road had to avoid his edge.

Just let her drive out of the city like that.

Cao Changqing's move was extremely slow this time.

Zi Yi Ziqi Zihong, rushed to Cao Changqing's side a foot away.

Huishan Daxueping, Xuanyuan Qingfeng.

Zi Yi crashed into within ten feet, and then stopped for an instant. I saw the woman's five fingers like a hook, no more than two or three feet away from the top of Cao Changqing's head.

Indifferent to this, Cao Changqing leaned forward, holding his cuff with one hand to avoid messing up the chess game. When the chess piece fell, his voice was exceptionally clear.

With the sound of falling pieces on the chessboard, it sounded lightly~IndoMTL.com~ She was knocked upside down, and her body was tumbling in the air.

Xuanyuan Qingfeng's back was pressed against the city head, her eyes were cold, her elbows were bent tightly against the city wall, her knees were bloody, and the corners of her mouth leaked scarlet blood.

I don't know when the Confucian scholar in the blue shirt who was born in vain sat quietly on the spot, biting his lips tightly, and shook his head.

Cao Changqing, the Confucian sage of the Great Chu, finally said a word, a sentence that he hadn't said for 20 years.

"This world says that you caused the great Chu to subdue the country, I Cao Changqing! I don't agree!"

After he came to the city alone this time, he held up his arms high for the first time, and then placed a heavy stone on the chessboard!

The clouds rolled and fell all together.

The sky of the Central Plains hangs down a hundred feet.

...
