Chapter 43: Arriving at Yecheng
Han Changluan tugged at the corners of his mouth, and after saying goodbye to Gao Changgong, he got into the carriage and announced his departure.
"Xing'er, take care of yourself, don't let your mother worry!" Gao Changgong's eyes looked happy with complexity, his eyes were full of kindness and concern, as well as a touch of gratitude and blame.
Although Gao Changgong didn't know why the Buddha statues in the city suddenly shattered and why there was a spirit turtle carrying the golden Buddha, he knew that all this must be inseparable from Xingxing, and the purpose of Xingxing was to save him.
Happy to go to Yecheng, maybe he will die, maybe he will no longer have freedom, as a father, Gao Changgong can't do anything about it, how not to blame himself, his mind can't help but remember what Happy once said, "Father, if you want to take your fate into your own hands, you can only eliminate all the dangerous factors and trample all the enemies under your feet!" ”
"Daddy, don't worry about me, the child has grown up and can take care of himself! It's just that without a child by your side, your mother may be sad, and you have time to spend more time with her! A faint sadness and loss rose from the bottom of his happy heart, and he didn't know how long it would take to see his parents who cared for him again, and he would embark on the journey alone to face all the wind, frost, rain and snow.
Gao Changgong nodded solemnly, patted his happy shoulder and said, "Xing'er, you have grown up, and my father is very happy." Daddy is waiting for the day when you take off, believe in yourself and let it go! In the latter sentence, Gao Changgong's voice was very low.
Happy was shocked, looking at Gao Changgong's encouraging and firm eyes, Happy was instantly filled with strength, he knew that Gao Changgong acquiesced to his point of view, and his fate should be in his own hands.
Nodding happily and firmly, he said sonorously: "Daddy, the child will not let you down!" You take care" After speaking, he glanced at Gao Changgong happily and then quickly turned around, grabbed the reins of the horse that had not yet been handed over, jumped on the horse lightly, and did not look back happily, and chased after Han Changluan's car.
"Don't give up, why didn't you follow Xing'er?" Gao Chang watched his happy back disappear into the dust of the sky.
"General Qiyu, the major general is not allowed to go, he asked me to assist you in guarding Huaizhou." He replied yet.
Gao Changgong sighed, turned around and walked towards Xuyi City, and asked softly as he walked, "Tell me everything you know!" ”
Shang Buqi followed closely behind Gao Changgong, answered yes, and said slowly: "General, it was the young general who asked me to stay in front of the Golden Buddha to maintain order, and I will report to you when something happens." ”
"Huh?" Gao Changgong stopped and stared at Shang Bu Yet, his eyes were a little sharp.
Shang Buqi looked at Gao Changgong calmly, happy did not tell him the specific plan, he didn't ask, just seriously carried out happy orders.
Gao Changgong snorted and quickly walked towards the city.
"What does it smell like?" Looking at the broken Buddha statue in front of him, Gao Changgong frowned deeply.
It is true that except for the golden Buddha in the square, the Buddha statues in all the temples and temples in the city were all shattered and torn apart violently. There was also a pungent smell in the air, Gao Changgong was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember what it was for a while.
"Brimstone!" Shang Buqi, who was standing quietly behind Gao Changgong, suddenly raised his head.
Gao Changgong sniffled, and had already asked about the faint smell of sulfur in the air, and his heart was even more strange, how could these Buddha statues carved from large stones be violently torn apart? In his memory, sulfur was flammable, but it never had such explosive power.
Gao Changgong, who couldn't figure it out, could only reluctantly give up this problem, there were too many things he needed to deal with. Xiao Maha has been sent to lead troops to martial law, block the four gates, and allow entry but not exit, so as to prevent the news from being spread by good deeds. And dozens of temples suffered misfortune, and Gao Changgong also needed to come forward to appease, after all, Buddhism at this time was quite influential.
The reason why these Buddha statues exploded was because they were happy. As a professional traveler, it is not difficult to make explosives. It's just that due to the backward technology, the power of the explosives made by Xingxing is not strong, which makes him very dissatisfied.
Ever since he entered Xuyi City and cooperated with Ye Jin, he has been preparing for this day.
The red sandalwood was purchased by Ye Jin at a great price, and the wooden box was naturally built by the craftsman Lu Ping. As for the spirit turtle, it was naturally happy that it had been prepared a long time ago. The lifelike golden Buddha is happily made according to the pendant around his neck. Otherwise, how can it be so realistic and convincing.
For well-trained special forces, putting some explosives in that unsuspecting temple is a piece of cake. Coupled with the telescope made by Xingxing, this is naturally faster and easier, so a shocking scene appeared, all the Buddha statues exploded almost at the same time, causing a small earthquake in Xuyi City.
After the defeat of Yangping, Chen's army did not immediately counterattack, but temporarily moved its troops westward and concentrated on attacking the middle reaches of the Yangtze River in Qi. On August 10, 573 AD, Chen general Wu Mingche led his army to conquer Hezhou (the state government axe is in Hefei City, Anhui Province), and on August 15, Chen's army went to the next state, and Renzhou (Lingbi County, Anhui Province) changed hands in Northern Qi. On August 13, Lu Qian, the Shangshu of the Northern Qi Dynasty, was defeated by Chen's general Zhou Jiong, and after three days, the Northern Qi Bazhou (Huanggang, Hubei Province) fell, and so far, all the forces of the Northern Qi along the Yangtze River were annexed by Chen's army.
After a short rest, Chen's army pressed the whole line and went straight to Huaizhou. Gao Changgong, who was the assassin of Huaizhou at the time, became nervous for a moment, and began to actively prepare for the war with Wang Lin.
Let's not improve the confrontation between Changgong and Wu Mingche, after eight days of speed, I am happy to come to the foot of Yanjing Yecheng with Han Changluan all the way safely.
Looking at the tall city wall in front of him, he suddenly wanted to shout: "I'm happy, I'm back!" ”
For his own safety, Happy is not worried at all, not to mention his own kung fu superman, he will have a huge umbrella, that is, Gao Wei. "The Secret of Longevity" is a practice of seizing heaven and earth, and it is also the foundation of happiness and life, so it is impossible for him to fully contribute.
Of the "Recipe for Longevity" recorded in the rosewood box, only the first five layers are completely correct, and the next thirteen layers have been slightly changed by Joy.
The five hundred cavalry companions completed their mission, and under the order of Happy, they quickly moved south, leaving only twenty ordinary-looking soldiers to act as escorts for Happy.
Han Changluan's car, how dare the soldiers guarding the city gate stop it? Han Changluan took a car all the way to the outside of the palace, and after telling Xing Xing to wait outside the palace gate, Han Changluan quickly went to meet Gao Wei.
Looking at the splendid and majestic palace in front of him happily and boringly, exuding a hazy and moving brilliance under the afterglow of the falling day, he sighed in his heart, this palace, I don't know how many people's efforts have been spent, but in history, a few years later, Yang Jian's fire burned it clean.
Even Yang Jian is a wise monarch through the ages in history, as an emperor, both merit and character are very good. However, because he hated the rebellion of others, he burned the entire Yecheng, this is the surname of the person, the most essential surname in his heart.
"There are three more enemies for some reason, who could it be?" Happily muttered to himself, he suddenly remembered Yuan Tiangang's speculation, but he was very confused in his heart.
