Chapter 465: The Power of a Sword

、、、、、、、、、、

Although Liang Shidu had launched an attack on Li Rail in the west, he had returned many times in vain. Therefore, the power has not expanded, and in the process of competing for dominance in the world, it has gradually fallen behind.

And last month, the results of the civil war of the Turks in the steppes were already out, and Jieli was victorious. Tuli had to flee to the north near the territory of the Xuyantuo people, relying on the support of Xue Qiluo, so that he was not destroyed, but he was powerless to fight against his uncle, so he had to bow down and respect Jieli as the new Turkic Khan.

Seeing this situation, Liang Shidu took refuge in Jieli in order to avoid being annexed by Li Yuan in the south or Yuming in the east. Acted as a pawn for the Turks to attack the Central Plains.

Although Jieli sat on the throne of the Turkic Khan, he also suffered heavy losses, and his troops were not enough to go south immediately. He knew that the Central Plains must not be unified, otherwise the situation would occur during his father's reign, and the Turks would have to pay tribute to the unified Central Plains Dynasty, the Great Sui.

Therefore, after he learned that Wang Shichong and Sun Simiao had convened the Luoyang Conference and invited the princes of the world to participate, he sent a letter to Liang Shidu, asking him to participate and make every effort to prevent Li Yuan and Yuming, the two princes who were close to the Turks, from winning. Cut their faces as much as possible, delay the expansion of the power of these two men, and prepare for the southward movement of the Turkic army.

Liang Shidu was not so arrogant that he thought he could stop Li Yuan and Yu Ming. But since they have taken refuge in the Turks, they must obey the Lord's commands, and they must make some representation at the conference.

It is rumored that there is affection between Shumeng and Yuming, and he has also heard of it. Seeing Yu Ming bring such a beautiful and moving woman to the banquet made him very unhappy. Secretly thinking that this Yuming was eating the bowl and looking at the pot. With such a flower-like lady who still wants to marry a medical fairy to express her dream, I really don't know what to do.

So, he glanced at his subordinate general Lu Jilan and asked him to challenge Yuming.

Lu Jilan was originally a womanizer, and since Red Sleeves entered the main hall, his eyes have been on Red Sleeves, and he can't take his eyes off it. And his martial arts are also very strong, known as the first master of Shuofang. This time he came to Luoyang with Liang Shidu, which was to determine that he would participate in the recruitment meeting of his dreams. And this young Zhou Wang Yuming is naturally his biggest rival.

It would naturally be a good thing if you could hit the face of this rival before the recruitment conference began.

Although he also heard that Yuming's martial arts are high, especially good at archery, but it is expected that this person is a prince, and he must be pampered and pampered in peacetime, even if he had some bottom before, but if he does not practice for a long time, his strength will definitely drop a lot, and he should be able to win the battle.

So, Lu Jilan stood up and said loudly to Yuming: "Lu Jilan, the general under the account of the Xia Liang Division, all the princes of the world are gathered here tonight, and it is very boring to drink like a fight. Lu is not talented, and wants to ask King Zhou for a few tricks! I wonder if King Zhou can give advice? ”

As soon as he said this, the audience suddenly fell silent, and everyone couldn't imagine that at this moment, someone would challenge the strongest prince Yuming head-on.

"Today is the reception banquet arranged by King Zheng for everyone. The Luoyang Conference is also to discuss the truce and peace, and as soon as it comes, it will move the knife and the gun, but I am afraid that it will be inappropriate! Xiao Mo said slowly at this time. Everyone had heard that he obviously wanted to relieve Yuming.

"What's wrong? What time has the world not been stable after a brutal war? Without the battle of Qin to destroy the Six Kingdoms, can there be a situation in which Great Qin dominates the world? Without the six-year war between Chu and Han, could there be the rule of Jing in the Western Han Dynasty? Without Wang Mang's 20 years of war and usurpation of the Han Dynasty, would there be a peaceful year in the Eastern Han Dynasty? Take the previous dynasty as an example, without the battle of Sui and Chen, could there be a nostalgic era of the emperor? Li Shimin immediately retorted. Now that Li Tang has 200,000 soldiers in Badong, he is eyeing the Jingxiang area, and he has long been hostile to Xiliang, so he naturally will not miss this opportunity to humiliate Xiao Mo and embarrass Yuming by the way.

Xiao Mo was not a person who was good at debating in the first place, but when he was squeezed by Li Shimin like this, he immediately opened his mouth and didn't know how to refute.

"Humph! Fighting for hegemony in the world depends on great wisdom and strategy, is it a competition for the courage of a horseman? Otherwise, in the Chu-Han War, it should be Xiang Yu who won, not Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty! Liang Yuanjun will not be trapped in the Hetao all the time, unable to enter the Central Plains! "Li Liang and Liang Shi have fought many times, so they naturally hate them deeply.

However, as soon as his voice fell, he felt Li Yuan at the table next to him glaring fiercely at him.

Only then did Li Liang remember that although what he said just now was aimed at Liang Shidu, it could also be said that he was singing against Li Yuan. And now Li Yuan is powerful, and he has always had intentions for Xiliang. He has been dealing with it carefully, and he is a side branch of Li Valve, so he didn't let Li Yuan point the finger at him. If he offends Li Yuan at such a banquet, he is afraid that once he returns to Guanzhong, Li Yuan will raise everyone to attack him, and then it will be a catastrophe.

Thinking of this, Li Liang hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to talk nonsense anymore.

"Sister Red Sleeves, how is Lu Jilan's martial arts?" Yuming asked in a low voice to Red Sleeves. He had always intended to attack the Hetao so that he could threaten Guanzhong from the north. Therefore, Liang Shidu's intelligence is also the focus of Jinyiwei's collection. Lu Jilan, as Liang Shidu's number one general, Red Sleeves should know his situation.

"This person is sixteen years old, he likes to practice martial arts since he was a child, has been guided by Yang Su, and is known as the first master of Shuofang. His internal strength has reached the middle stage of molting, which is equivalent to that of his husband. However, in terms of moves, he should be inferior to his husband. If the husband wants to stand up at the banquet, this person is a chicken who takes the initiative to send it to the door. Redsleeves whispered.

Yu Ming nodded, although he didn't know how Liang Shidu suddenly found trouble with him, but he also held back the fire in his heart, and he really couldn't hold it back.

"However, the husband can't be careless, according to the news that the concubine has recently gotten, Liang Shidu may have taken refuge in the Turks. According to his strength, he would never dare to go against his husband. Now he dares to openly acquiesce in the provocation of his subordinates at the banquet, most of them have the instructions of the Turks behind them. After the Luoyang Conference this time, I'm afraid that we will have to guard against the possible southward movement of the Turks! Redsleeves reminded at this time.

"Good! I know how to do it! Yu Ming gently patted the fragrant shoulder of the red sleeve, then got up and said loudly: "Since General Lu intends to cut one or two, how can this king disappoint the general?" ”

With that, he pulled out his scimitar with a "bang" and jumped to the center of the main hall.

Lu Jilan didn't expect Yuming to really fight. He was also overjoyed, and then picked up the sword, walked in front of Yu Ming, and bowed: "Please teach King Zhou!" ”

As soon as the words fell, he immediately raised the tip of his sword, conjured nine sword flowers, and stabbed straight towards Yuming's face.

"Be careful, husband!" Seeing this, Red Sleeves hurriedly reminded.

Lu Jilan's behavior was really a bit despicable and shameless, it was almost a sneak attack, and everyone present secretly despised him as a person.

"One sword turns into nine lotus! Isn't this Yang Su's famous stunt in the past? It seems that Lu Jilan is Yang Su's apprentice who was secretly accepted, and it is true! "Many of the princes in the field are people who know the goods, so they naturally see the clues.

"Good time!" Yu Ming shouted, he had been paying attention to Lu Jilan's movements since he entered. Although he didn't expect this person to do it immediately, he was not defenseless.

With a wave of the scimitar in Yu Ming's hand, only to hear the crisp sound of "dang", the nine sword flowers disappeared.

Lu Jilan's mouth shook violently, and he couldn't help but take a step backwards. He didn't expect that Yu Ming reacted so quickly, and his vision was so accurate, he could see at once which of his nine sword flowers was the real sword flower, and blocked it with one sword.

The sword intersects, so naturally the thicker knife has to take advantage of it, and Yu Ming's strength is already greater than him, so Lu Jilan is quite good if he doesn't have a long sword.

"You can take me too!" Yu Ming sneered at this time, and then raised the scimitar above his head with both hands, and then slashed down at Lu Jilan's head with the trick of Mount Tai pressing the top.

Lu Jilan secretly complained, he knew that his arm strength was not as good as Yu Ming, and if he fought hard, he was afraid that he would be defeated. But when he challenged before, he was so full of words, if he dodged as soon as he came, how could he have a face?

So, he had to bite the bullet, and he also raised his sword with both hands and fought upwards with force.

There was a crisp sound of "bang", and I saw Lu Jilan's sword broken in two, and it fell to the ground with a "clang".

At the same time, Yu Ming put his knife into the sheath and turned to walk towards his desk.

Everyone couldn't help but wonder for a while: Although Lu Jilan's sword was broken, he hadn't admitted defeat yet, why did Yuming end up on his own.

But when they looked closely, they were terrified. I saw that on Lu Jilan's head, from his forehead, nose, lips to chin, there was a wound about a foot long, and blood and brains kept oozing from the wound......

Lu Jilan's mouth opened wide, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it. He didn't expect that he would be defeated by Yuming with a single sword.

With a "poof", Lu Jilan fell to the sky like a door panel, looking at the roof with unrefreshed eyes, with a dead expression.

"Drag this guy out! It's a shame that martial arts are low and strong, it's really embarrassing! Although Liang Shidu was shocked and angry, on this occasion, he could only slap his swollen face and become fat.

At this time, he had a new understanding of Yuming's martial arts. Although he had thought that Yuming was difficult to deal with, Lu Jilan might be defeated, but he didn't expect Lu Jilan to lose so quickly and lose his life. This person is his number one fierce general, and after his death, he will lose a confidant and a general who will command the army, and in case of an invasion by foreign enemies, I am afraid it will be even more dangerous.

Thinking of this, Liang Shidu's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly got up and raised his glass to Yuming and said: "Liang is not strict, he collided with King Zhou, punished himself, and asked King Zhou for forgiveness!" ”
