Volume 4: Chapter 38 of the Emperor's Prosperous Age, Sun Qing's Letter

Famous Goguryeo native soldiers stood outside, couldn't help but wipe their hands and stomp their feet, they have a small camp, this kind of camp is a small outpost of the Guli people on the edge of the Liao River, each post has fifty people, their main task is to prevent the Sui army from smuggling across the river, originally their task was to patrol the riverside, but on such a snowy day, who is willing to leave the warm camp to patrol the river in the cold wind.

If it weren't for being too afraid of that demonic Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen, the Goguryeo people wouldn't even send sentinels, although the weather is cold now, it has just snowed for a short time, as long as the freezing of the Liao River can't bear the weight of the human body, this damn Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen shouldn't be able to cross the river, right?

"Whew! Shout! Two sharp arrows suddenly came out of the wind and snow and accurately shot into the throats of the two Goguryeo soldiers.

One, two, three...... A total of nineteen tight-fitting black-clad and masked knights emerged from the wind and snow, and the Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen and their leader, Luo Yi, crossed the river just when the Goguryeo people thought they couldn't cross it yet.

"Kill!"

The horses' hooves flew and snowflakes flew, and over the corpses of the two Goguryeo soldiers who had fallen on the ground, the nineteen knights scattered and slaughtered the little outpost that knew nothing.

"Whew! Shout! Shout! "Before the people arrived, the iron arrows had already flown into the camp of the Goguryeo people.

"Who?" The iron arrows were mixed with the sound of the wind, and there were still vigilant Goguryeo soldiers who heard it, but they had just finished asking. He immediately let out a scream: "Ah! ”

The screams became denser and denser, and more than a dozen lucky Goguryeo soldiers ran out of the camp, and when they saw that there were not many people attacking, they mustered up the courage to rush over to Luo Yi and others, shouting in Goguryeo: "Kill!" ”

A Goguryeo soldier looked at the clothes of Luo Yi and the others, recalled the previous legend, and became frightened: "It's Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen!" ”

"Run!" This shout completely dispelled the fighting spirit of most of the Goryeo soldiers, and many turned around and ran towards the horse stables next to them, as long as they stepped on the horses, there was still a glimmer of hope of escaping. Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen, which time they don't kill hundreds or thousands of people, they only have fifty people, even if they are not attacked, they are no opponent.

"It's too weak." A warrior of Yanyun's eighteenth cavalry couldn't help but shake his head, although even if these more than ten Goguryeo people had the courage to fight, they couldn't hurt a single hair of Yanyun's eighteenth cavalry, but the act of selling their backs directly to Yanyun's eighteen cavalry in this way obviously saved their horsepower, and they only needed to shoot arrows with bows on the spot.

"Whew! Shout! Shout! "In less than a tea time, there was not a single Goguryeo standing in the entire camp. Killing these Goguryeo troops took less time than attacking Goguryeo villages.

A day later, news finally came out that the checkpoints and villages had been attacked. By the time the Goguryeo soldiers arrived at the first small village, the village had turned into ashes, and the remaining more than 100 old and weak women and children did not freeze to death by relying on each other's ambiguity. It will be a village within a hundred miles of the Liao River. All relocated.

By the time the Goguryeo people were ready, Luo Yi had retreated to the west bank of the Liao River with Yanyun's eighteen horsemen, and hundreds of Goguryeo soldiers and strong men had turned into the ghosts of Yanyun's eighteen horsemen.

Xu Deyan and his entourage stayed in the inn for more than ten days, and every time they visited the Commander's Mansion of the Commander of Dongyi, the sergeant guarding the door said: "The general did not come back." ”

If it weren't for the fact that he had never met Luo Yi, and the status difference between the two was too far, Xu Deyan would have suspected that Luo Yi deliberately avoided him.

In the first few days, the five guards from the East Palace scolded and cracked every day, and they didn't see Luo Yi. They couldn't go back, and later they were entertained by Xu Deyan with good wine and food every day. The five guards were able to settle down. Although the capital is good, it is not as free as here. What's more, Xu Deyan spends money generously, and after a period of time, the five guards feel a little happy.

Idle, Xu Deyan had to take everyone to wander around the city, a few days later, but to solve the first day into the city when I saw someone kneeling down to the city wall to worship the doubts, the original grassland is mostly flat land, the herdsmen are convinced that there are gods living on each mountain, many people see the city for the first time, Dongyi City is built on the mountain, majestic and magnificent, many herdsmen regard Dongyi City as a holy mountain to worship.

At noon that day, Xu Deyan and five guards were wandering around Dongyi City, when there was a sudden sound of cheers like a landslide and tsunami on the street, and then many people ran in the same direction

And shouted loudly.

Xu Deyan and the five guards looked at each other, and one of the guards asked blankly, "What happened?" ”

The rest of the guards all shook their heads, their faces were blank, Xu Deyan hurriedly stopped a person running forward and asked, "What's wrong, why are you all running forward?" ”

The man glanced at Xu Deyan suspiciously: "The first time you came to Dongyi City?" ”

Xu Deyan nodded: "Not bad!" ”

"The great general is back, who else can get such cheers except the great general?" The man said proudly.

"Luo Yi is back?" Xu Deyan was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted: "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”

There was a crowd of people on the street, as if the entire Dongyi City had arrived here, and as soon as Xu Deyan and the others squeezed in, a tsunami-like cheer came into their ears.

"Long live Yanyun's eighteen horsemen!"

"Long live General Luo!"

"Long live Yanyun's eighteen horsemen!"

"Long live General Luo!"

……

Which is Luo Yi? Looking at the nineteen horsemen who came over in the middle, Xu Deyan opened his mouth wide in surprise, these nineteen people were covered in black armor, the mask on their faces was still not taken off, they were dressed in a black cloak, wearing bearded boots with scimitars, carrying a big bow, and a murderous aura, Xu Deyan even felt the thick bloody aura on their bodies.

"What is the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun?" One of the guards asked curiously.

"Phew, you don't even know about Yanyun's eighteen rides." The person who was questioned looked at the East Palace guard with disdain.

"Nineteen people?"

"Idiot, isn't it eighteen people minus General Luo?"

The scolded Donggong guard was furious, and was about to theorize, but when he saw the angry eyes around him, the Donggong guard didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to shout with the surrounding crowd: "Long live Yanyun's eighteen horsemen!" ”

This cheering did not subside until Luo Yi and his subordinates entered the mansion, and the people on the street gradually dispersed, only Xu Deyan and the five East Palace guards looked at each other, showing an incredible look on their faces.

Jiangnan has always had a tradition of emphasizing literature over martial arts, Xu Deyan naturally has a little contempt for martial artists, he came here, just to avoid the limelight and repay the heart, just to see the scene in front of him, he is curious about Luo Yi, there is no doubt that Luo Yi is the king of this city, a general, what kind of charm can he and his subordinates be so supported by everyone in a city?

In the East Palace, Lu Mulin held a secret letter in his hand and walked into Yang Yong's study with a solemn expression: "Your Highness, Sun Qing has a letter, Sugar Island is being targeted." ”

Now the production method of white sugar is no secret, there are at least more than ten merchants in the country know how to make white sugar, the price of white sugar has also fallen from the first time as high as 500 wen a catty to the current level of 10 wen a catty, however, the profit in the middle is still amazing, and due to the reduction of prices, the annual sales of white sugar have also increased, Sun Qing can still bring tens of thousands of profits to the East Palace every year.

Over the years, Donggong has taken a total of nearly 10 million yuan from the sugar trade, for the secret of white sugar, I don't know how many merchants are involved, and how many bloody battles, and finally Yang Yong ordered Sun Qing to take the initiative to leak the production method of white sugar, and the pressure on Sugar Island has been reduced a lot, and it has been maintained to this day.

Since Donggong has the weaving field of the Agricultural College and the Jiangnan Tea Field, the profits of more than 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands of yuan of sugar every year are no longer in Yang Yong's eyes, if it were not for the thousands of people on Sugar Island who could not find a proper way to resettle, Yang Yong actually intended to give up Sugar Island.

The secret of Sugar Island must not be leaked out, if Yang Yong is ruthless enough, as long as he orders the Darkcoat Guard to kill the people on Sugar Island, but Yang Yong really can't do this kind of thing, and Sugar Island can only keep it.

Although the quality of the sugar coming out of the sugar island is the best, but the amount has been decreasing year by year, and now there are more than a dozen companies making sugar together, and no one should be interested in a white sugar that claims to be shipped from overseas, but Sun Qing is now writing to say that the sugar island is being targeted, and this matter is serious.

Yang Yong took the letter from Lu Mulin's hand, although the sugar island is lonely overseas, but the island does not produce anything other than some vegetables, food, clothing, and raw materials for sugar making must be purchased from outside, which gives some people an opportunity, a few days ago, Sun Qing found that someone stole into his room to look through the account book, but as soon as the person was caught, the person committed suicide by taking medicine, leaving no clues, Sun Qing suspected that there was more than one person lurking on the island.

After reading the letter, a trace of murder appeared on Yang Yong's face: "Order Sun Qing to seal the whole island, find suspicious people, etc., and kill all of them." ”
