Chapter 267: The Emperor's Grandson Travels
Li Shimin naturally attaches great importance to the safety of the three emperors and grandsons such as Yang Qi, the king of Yan.
He knew that King Qi was going to attack these nephews, and he also roughly determined what kind of means Yang Yin was going to use. But everything is hard to guarantee accidents, once due to his own negligence, the king of Qi is given other opportunities to take advantage of, the latter will definitely not let go.
And judging from the strength on paper, the protective power of the three emperors and grandsons is undoubtedly extremely strong. In addition to each of them having two first-rank dragon blood battle puppets to escort them, there are also two other hidden guards to protect them.
- This is also a first-rank master, whose strength is slightly inferior to those battlefield generals, but it is much higher than those Jianghu martial arts cultivators.
In addition, there are about thirty personal guards, led by two personal guards who have cultivated to the second rank. Without exception, the members are all above the fifth grade.
Embroidered clothes don't drive Tang Yuanhua, a super powerhouse, and he is personally in charge, responsible for taking care of the safety of the three emperors and grandchildren.
And this subordinate also has nearly two hundred embroidered guards.
Therefore, what Li Shimin needs to be responsible for is only the behavior of the car and the vigilance on the periphery. He needs to prevent any 'anomalies' and have a chance to get close to the three royal grandsons.
It is also necessary to spread out the scout horses in your hands, control the surrounding highlands for twenty or thirty miles, and pay attention to the dense forests on both sides of the road.
How terrible a high-grade marksman is, he himself knows very well,
However, this is not his family's business, the divine shooting that can threaten the three emperors and grandsons can also threaten the Son of Heaven.
Therefore, the Chinese army and the embroidered guards are also scouting and riding out, covering dozens of miles of surrounding areas. The people under Li Shimin's hands are just beating down.
In addition to this, there is also how to set up camp at night, arrange patrols, and so on.
- If you are a general from a poor family, if you receive this important task for the first time, you will definitely be in a hurry because of this, and you will have to make countless jokes.
But for Li Shimin, this is not a problem at all. His family history, coupled with his intelligence and studiousness, can be said to know the knowledge of marching formations well. In addition, the subordinate eldest grandson Wuji, eldest grandson Shunde, Gongsun Wuda, Murong Luohu and Dou Rail, etc., are also generations of generals, and they have outstanding abilities, so there is no need to worry about this at all.
At this time, Dong Chun's 'foresight' in arranging for Li Shimin to be in charge of the three emperors' and grandsons' was also revealed.
In front of them, such as the King of Qin, the King of Qi and other close attendants of the clan, all of them gave instructions to the soldiers of the forbidden army who accompanied them. Some are even more excessive, and will put forward all kinds of harsh requirements on the way.
But on the side of the three emperors and grandsons, this kind of thing rarely happens. This is not because of how good the Yang brothers are* their own subordinates, but because Li Shimin himself has a certain friendship with the three emperors and grandsons, and in front of these three brothers, they can all speak. Especially Yang Qi, the king of Yan, seemed to appreciate Li Shimin, and when he set off, he deliberately looked for the latter and said something for half an hour. The words are not only respectful, but also close to the royal driver.
In addition, it is the 'face' of the little princess Yang Ying.
This is a powerful and famous person in the palace, and he will never dare to provoke him. Even a few emperors and grandsons are also afraid and avoid them.
It is conceivable that even their masters are still like this, how dare these servants be presumptuous in front of Yang Ying's teacher?
To Li Shimin's surprise, Dong Chun also arranged the three aunts and nephews of Ashina's family into his queue.
Li Shimin guessed that this was probably because he had defeated Ashinash Bobi and Ashina Simo. Dong Chun thought that he was able to 'suppress' these two Turkic princes.
In addition, the 1,000 Xuanjia Capital under his command is also the best among the eight Iron Cavalry Capitals at present, so that he will not be too embarrassed in front of the two experts, Ashinash Bobi and Ashina Simo.
This made Li Shimin feel a little headache, there was no need, he really didn't want to deal with this Ashina family.
Coupled with the gambling battle at the previous Qianqiu Festival night banquet, I felt that it was quite embarrassing to meet each other.
But fortunately, these two Turkic princes also seem to understand that their identities are sensitive, and they usually hide in the carriage and don't come out. Only occasionally peeped through the car window, peeking at the ranks of the forbidden army on both sides, talking with their subordinates, pointing and pointing.
Both parties tacitly agree not to do any communication, and occasionally when their eyes meet, they will avoid it at the first time.
But what embarrassed Li Shimin the most was Ashina Minghui.
Whenever he sees this, Li Shimin can't help but think of the scene he saw through the 'Zhou Tianshen Eyes' in those days, the skin as thin as white porcelain, the delicate and convex body, and the mysterious area under the lower abdomen-
And then this Ashina Minghui seems to be quite interested in him. Every day when I am bored, I will lie on the car window and follow him with my eyes.
The pair of black and white, like smart beautiful eyes, made Li Shimin's blood gush several times.
After all, it was the first time Li Shimin had seen a female nude in his life, and he was too impressed.
He sat upright on the horse and tried his best to hide his strangeness, but he was still noticed by the two people who accompanied him, Shi Rakshasa and Yang Yun. The former was dumbfounded when he saw it, thinking that it was indeed time for his son to think about spring.
At this age, even if they are walking on the street, they will naturally stand up.
On the other hand, Yang Yun was red with cheeks and ears on top of the thin face, and instinctively looked away, pretending to be ignorant and looking in other directions.
Because Dong Chun had a hint in advance, he asked Li Shimin to bring several of his own worshippers with him.
So Yang Yun was also able to accompany him this time, but he didn't expect to encounter such an embarrassing scene on this trip.
Only the 'stargazer' next to him was completely unaware of this.
"-It's strange, I've asked people to search around Luoyang, but they haven't found any clues of those slaves. I really don't know how the people of the Eight Divisions of the Demon Dragon did it, and where they hid them. There are so many people, and there is not even a trace of it. ”
At this time, what Zhang Yurou said was about the whereabouts of the people who went to the eastern capital a few days ago.
In the early hours of that morning, when Luo Li brought the news back, she was directly scared into a cold sweat.
The embroidered guards were heavily armed, and the Demon Dragon Babu and Zhu Cang had other calculations, if they really broke in stupidly at that time, the end would be extremely sad.
It was Li Shimin who saw the opportunity quickly and avoided a catastrophe.
But now Zhang Yurou is more concerned about the whereabouts of Zhu Cang's 'goods'.
When the embroidered guards boarded the ship, they encountered a large-scale fire explosion, and more than half of the more than 100 embroidered guards died on the spot.
However, that King Zhu did send more than 1,300 middle-aged men and women to Luoyang. And before the embroidered guards boarded the ship, these 'goods' had disappeared without a trace.
According to Li Shimin's judgment, the slave ship should have been robbed before it arrived in the suburbs of Luoyang. And in addition to the consciousness of the embroidered guard, he transported all the more than 1,000 people inside, and sent a large number of 'ambush fires' to the ship.
It's incredible, according to what they heard afterwards. Zhu Cang had already sold this transaction and trading partners to Xiuyiwei a few days ago.
So this is a slave ship, and it is under the supervision of the embroidered guards almost the whole time, so it is said that there is no chance of any accidents.
But the Demon Dragon Babu has done this incredible thing.
In addition, Li Shimin is more determined that these 'goods' should still be hundreds of miles away from Luoyang City, and they have not been sent to Luoyang.
It's just that he's tried his best, but he still can't find any useful clues.
And it's not just him, it's the same with the embroidered guard.
The explosion of the slave carrier made the embroidered guards in a state of rage. These Tianzi eagle dogs, at this time, are like a sieve, frantically searching the entire Henan County,
"This means that they are well prepared, and I think that the water supplied to the slaves must have been prepared before that. Yurou, you might as well check forward and see if there is a big grain deal in the near future, especially rice and wheat meat and the like-"
Li Shimin listened to Zhang Yurou talk about business, so he barely restrained his heart, and his expression fell into contemplation.
"And those 'ambush fires' on the ship, haven't you found out the source?"
Fuhuo is a kind of alchemy noun, which is a method of refining outer pills. It refers to the heat treatment of various ore drugs to make them become another substance that does not vaporize and volatilize at high temperature, so as to achieve the purpose of subduing the fire poison of ore drugs and facilitating taking.
And there are dozens of different types of fire ambush techniques - such as the North Pavilion method of the fire ambush, the method of flying the fire, the method of fire sulfur, the method of fire mercury, the method of fire prima and so on.
However, in recent years, some alchemists have used a novel technique of ambushing fire to refine a strange substance that mixes sulfur, saltpeter and charcoal, which can burn violently, and in some cases, will also explode violently.
As soon as this thing was born, it was loved by many magicians and craftsmen. Although many alchemists can prepare it, it is still in short supply every year. And the word 'Fuhuo' has gradually become a term exclusive to this thing.
In addition, this thing has another name, called *, which means 'medicine' that can burn. The original purpose of the alchemist to create this thing was to cure all diseases, live forever, and even become immortals.
According to Li Shimin's estimate, in order to create the big explosion on the Luo River in the early hours of that morning, then the 'ambush fire' arranged by the Demon Dragon Babu on the slave transport ship must have exceeded 50 stones.
Such a large amount is definitely not something that three or five alchemists can make. It must be the Dao Sect forces like the Zhengyi Eight Veins and the Thirty-six Cave Heavens of the Dao Gate that can provide such a scale of 'ambush fire'.
In addition to this, the sulfur required for the 'ambush' of saltpeter, although tomorrow is also common. But such a large number must have its own professional channels.
