Xuanzong made a promise of a thousand gold, and at noon the edict to reward the rest of the Langzi camp was issued, and Dai Yang, who was disabled by injury, not only won the title, but also received a generous reward.

The news was transmitted back to Yangzhou City, setting off a lot of turmoil.

In the Yu Mansion in Jixianli, Li Dahu closed the door and walked out, and sighed lowly: "It seems that it is time to start." ”

Changan.

Chonghua Fang Yu House.

"Brother Lang, we have always been brothers who live and die together, why is Xiao Bolu unwilling to take me with him this time?" Xue Wenyang was obviously dissatisfied with Yu Lang's arrangement.

"Last time, Senior Brother Huangfu fought viciously with the Tubo army, Dai Yang lost his legs, and this time the westward expedition to Xiao Bolu is even more dangerous, I will not take you into danger. You can rest assured, if I can successfully defeat Xiao Bolu and get the reward, I will not lose your share. Yu Lang said sincerely, in the lively Langzi camp in the past, now only Xue Wenyang is always with him, and Yu Lang is unwilling to let Xue Wenyang get into danger anymore.

Xue Wenyang couldn't hide the disappointment between his eyebrows: "Brother Lang, let me ask you, please answer truthfully, if it was Li Dahu who was accompanying him today, would you take him there?" ”

Yu Lang was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "Li Dahu is vigilant, and there are many means to save his life, if he is by my side, I will take him with me." ”

If Li Dahu is here, Yu Lang thinks that the chances of winning this trip can be increased by at least two percent.

"Brother Lang, if you still take me Xue Wenyang as a brother, leave me a position as the commander of the personal guards, although my cultivation in the sea is low, but I also deserve this position."

If you persist any longer, I'm afraid Xue Wenyang will really be cold, Yu Lang had no choice but to nod: "You have been rewarded by Your Majesty this time, and you already have a dismissal from the rank of captain of Jiupin Rong, and you can just be appointed as the commander of my own soldiers, if there is no you, there is indeed no suitable candidate for this position, and I can't believe the others." ”

For everything that happened at the small court meeting the day before yesterday, Yu Lang deeply felt that he was still calculated by Li Linfu, what suppressed the prince's power with greedy military exploits, and what prepared poems to arrange them into the Hanlin Academy, all Li Linfu's promises were not fulfilled, all he did was to push Yu Lang in front of his son-in-law Wang Tianyun and establish this meritorious feat for him.

All the coincidences and twists were all written and acted by Li Linfu himself, and Yu Lang fell into his calculations from the beginning.

If it weren't for Li Linfu's panicked performance after Qing'er desperately blocked the knife that night, Yu Lang even suspected that the conflict between himself and Senior Brother Huangfu had been arranged by Li Linfu a long time ago, if this was the case, this old man was really terrifying.

The most depressing thing is that Yu Lang can't turn his face with Li Linfu at this moment, in a sense, he has indeed been reused and favored, and there is also Qing'er's unavoidable affection.

When Xue Wenyang went out to buy luggage, Obaba came up and said to Yu Lang: "Xue Wenyang met with the prince's people yesterday. ”

Yu Lang suddenly felt a chill in his heart, no wonder Xue Wenyang was so obsessed with the position of the commander of the pro-army, could it be that the prince did something in the Western Expeditionary Army, and when the time came, he would unite with Xue Wenyang to attack together? He suddenly felt a little out of breath, on the one hand, Li Linfu's scheming and scheming calculations, and on the other hand, the strategy of the East Palace think tank on the prince's side, he was caught between the two, losing ground and suffering and anxiety.

They seemed to want to tell Yu Lang with practical actions that they would either join the Prime Minister's camp or join the Donggong camp, and there was no third way to choose.

Yu Lang secretly made up his mind that if he successfully defeated Xiao Bolu this time, he would return to Chang'an to manage his own force by virtue of his military exploits, and he would not have to rely on anyone or rely on others.

Yu Lang had no intention of demolishing Xue Wenyang in a short period of time, after all, he had been brothers for many years, and he was unwilling to take the lead in attacking until the last moment of the battle, thanks to Obaba's carefulness, so that Yu Lang had a psychological preparation in advance, otherwise if Xue Wenyang suddenly attacked, it would be really difficult to deal with.

The brothers who used to talk about everything in the Langzi camp have grown up, each has their own ambitions, each has their own ideals, and love has become the thinnest thing.

At dusk, Wang Tianyun, the straw bag commander of the Western Expeditionary Army, came to visit Yu Lang with a group of men and many gifts.

Wang Tianyun's age is not confused, but although this person is a military general, he is pampered and extremely well maintained, and his face is originally white, and he looks like a young man less than thirty.

Yu Lang did not show any awe for this straw bag coach, first, this person's ability is low, there is nothing to be afraid of, and second, Yu Lang, as the deputy general of the Western Expeditionary Army, must also make enough noise in front of this person in order to seize power and better control the army.

Wang Tianyun seemed to have a very good temper, and he was not insulted by Yu Lang's contempt at all: "General Yu, I heard that you led two thousand Longyou troops to defeat the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack Lanxie City that day, and then beheaded the Tubo general Teng Bar on the spot, you are really a good commander with courage and strategy!" ”

Yu Lang smiled lightly, expecting that this person would not come to the door with a generous gift just to slap the horse.

Wang Tianyun retreated from his entourage and whispered to Yu Lang: "I heard that there are many capable people in Xiao Bolu Kingdom, and General Yu, you are extremely brave, can we set up our camp tents in one place at that time?" Convenient, uh, hand in hand to retreat from the enemy. ”

Yu Lang could hear it, the coach was afraid that the little Bolu assassin would rob the camp, and wanted to camp with Yu Lang for stability. This request is not too much, especially compared to so many gifts in front of him, Yu Lang agreed.

Originally, this was just a trivial matter, and Wang Tianyun was just an insignificant mediocre person, but at the moment when the two were closer, Yu Lang's Xiaoyun Ancient Money hidden in the inner pocket of his clothes suddenly trembled violently.

Almost at the same time, Wang Tianyun's originally calm face also changed drastically.

Xiaoyun Ancient Qian can't sense the specific location of the wall-breaker in the distance, but if the two wall-breakers are only three feet apart, there will definitely be a rejection reaction.

In other words, at this moment, Yu Lang and Wang Tianyun both knew that the other party was a wall-breaker, and they also knew that their identities were exposed.

Although it is not known how the screening mechanism is triggered, it is obvious that only one of the wall-breakers can survive in the end.

Yu Lang didn't dare to despise any wall-breaking person, he pulled out the wooden sword with his left hand, and held the long-lost grinding stone knife with his right hand, locking Wang Tianyun's qi machine tightly. Since you want to make a move, you must strike a thunderous blow with all your might, and you can't give your opponent any chance.

Wang Tianyun hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "General Yu, please spare my life." The Heavenly Punishment Zone has not yet arrived, and it is far from the time for us to break the wall and fight each other? We can cooperate and coexist peacefully for the time being. ”

"Heavenly Punishment Zone?" Yu Lang frowned, the sporadic news of him, the wall-breaker, was all obtained from Ning Xiaoyu, and he had never heard of the concept of the Heavenly Punishment Zone before.

Wang Tianyun showed a trace of doubt on his face, as if these things should have been known by the wall-breakers, this doubt disappeared in a flash, and he hurriedly said: "There are currently three hundred and forty-seven wall-breakers in Datang, and only three hundred people will survive when the next round of heavenly punishment area comes. ”

"I see, the driving force behind the wall-breakers having to fight each other is here-in order to reduce the probability of the thunder of punishment falling on their heads."

Wang Tianyun had a begging smile on his face: "General Yu, I will be your little brother in the future, and when the heavenly punishment area is reduced to the last round, there will be at least twenty years, and my Wang Tianyun will be forty-one this year, and I will have enough to live by then." ”

"What era are you from?" Yu Lang is moved after all, if you have to pick teammates from the wall-breakers, the best choice must be the stupidest and weakest, the threat is reduced, information sharing, why not.

"In 1937, I fell on the battlefield of the Battle of Songhu, and this life was a nest of luck." In the Tang Dynasty, Wang Tianyun's words were absurd and weird.

Yu Lang smiled: "I didn't expect you to be a pioneer of the Anti-Japanese War." ”

Although Wang Tianyun has repeatedly shown weakness, Yu Lang will not be so stupid as to think that this person is really a wrecked person with no fighting spirit, and there is no weak person who is willing to be mediocre among the wall-breakers. If this person really just wants to be stable, there is no need to be Li Linfu's son-in-law, in order to reduce the danger of revealing his identity, it is better to hide in the deep mountains and old forests to live in seclusion.

Being defensive does not mean being afraid, Yu Lang wanted to let this Wang Tianyun take the lead, and wait until this person made the first move to attack himself before making a preemptive move, so as not to arouse suspicion.

Why does Wang Tianyun know more than me? Yu Lang seemed to have caught a clue from the doubts that Wang Tianyun had flashed away, the token of the wall-breaker was probably something else besides Xiaoyun Ancient Money, for some reason, Ning Xiaoyu did not give that token to Yu Lang.
