Chapter 277: The Legendary Emperor (1)
Li Cangxing finally understood why he had walked for half a day, and he was still not far from the light in front of him, and this passage seemed to have no end. It turns out that this is a circular passage, and he and Yanagi Xiongba have been spinning in this passage, and only by breaking the hidden weapon raid in the darkness can it be regarded as cracking the mechanism here and getting out of this labyrinth.
Li Cangxing turned his head and glanced at Liu Sheng Xiongba, only to see that he was still holding the knife in both hands, and his whole body was full of true qi, but like himself, he was relieved to hand over his entire back to himself for cover, and he was not worried that he would be blackmailed behind his back.
Li Cangxing sighed in his heart, the series of tests in the darkness just now was not only to test the martial arts of himself and Liu Shengxiongba, but also to test the trust of the two people in each other.
In the dark, even people who trust each other extremely will misjudge because of nervousness, and if he and Yanagi Yuba attack at the same time to deal with the hidden weapon in front of them, it is likely that they will enter the opponent's attack range in this narrow space, treat each other as enemies, and it is very likely that they will kill the killer with all their might.
Fortunately, Li Cangxing had enough trust in Liu Sheng Xiongba, and turned to his rear to resist the three really deadly Shadow Flying Needles, and Liu Sheng Xiongba did not cause a misjudgment because Li Cangxing took out his sword behind him, otherwise the two would have died in that passage at this time.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Cangxing felt a chill on his back, he had such a tacit understanding with this widow who was neither an enemy nor a friend, and what was even more rare was that he actually trusted himself so much, you must know that the two were still fighting for their lives an hour ago, plus the language barrier, they could actually understand guò like this test, which made Li Cangxing himself a little unbelievable.
Li Cangxing was in deep thought, and Liu Sheng Xiongba patted him on the shoulder, and he turned his head suddenly. found that on the ring wall in front of Yanagi Xiongba, a small door more than half a person high appeared, and bright light came out of the door, and the two glanced at each other and walked into the small door together.
Walking into the small door, Li Cangxing's eyes suddenly opened up, this is a large hall dozens of zhang square, it looks like a tomb, and there are huge candlesticks on all sides, and weapons and armor are placed. It seems that this burial chamber has not been opened for a long time, and the weapons and armor inside are all clean and have not fallen any dust.
The most eye-catching thing in the whole hall is a huge sarcophagus in the center, and a stone tablet stands on one side of the sarcophagus. In the rock next to the sarcophagus, there is a handful of three feet long. A huge sword half a foot wide. The light of the dozen candlesticks in the entire hall was not as bright as this sword.
Li Cangxing looked at his feet and found that at the entrance where he was now, there were more than a dozen steps under his feet, and from the bottom of the steps to this large sarcophagus, there were several huge stone statues standing on both sides. A few looked like military generals, while others were dressed as civil servants.
Li Cangxing realized that he must have entered an ancient tomb to see the frame of the owner of this tomb. Either the king was waiting, or even a generation of emperors, to hide the strong excitement in his heart, he stepped forward and looked at the stone tablet, while Yanagi Xiongba was obviously more interested in the knife stuck in the rock, and he didn't even bother to look at the stone tablet, so he went directly to the knife to look at it.
Li Cangxing looked at the inscription, and the first sentence was: I am Liu Yu, the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and this is my life.
When Li Cangxing saw this, he muttered in his heart: The founding emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty was surnamed Zhao, but he had never heard of the surname Liu. With this question in mind, he continued to read on.
The following record is the life of the founding emperor of the Song State named Liu Yu, he said that he was the younger brother of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, the descendant of Liu Jiao, the king of Chu, the Yuanjia Rebellion, the Shenzhou Lu Shen, the Wuhu Chaohua, the entire northern China was occupied by the Hu people, and the emperor of the Jin Dynasty at that time was also captured by the Hu people, the clan Sima Rui crossed to the south to Jiankang, established the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and has been unable to succeed in the Northern Expedition for more than 100 years, restoring the Central Plains.
This Liu Yu was born in the last years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, born in Jingkou, which is now a middle- and lower-class scholar in Zhenjiang, Nanzhili, his mother died of dystocia when he was born, and was sent to his aunt's house as an ominous person for a few years, so he also fell into the alias of a slave.
Liu Yu's family was poor when he was young, his father died early when he was four or five years old, and he was picked up by his kind stepmother Xiao from his aunt's house, and raised with his two half-brothers.
Liu Yu later joined the army to serve the country, and joined the most elite troops of the Eastern Jin Dynasty - in the battle of Weishui, he broke the Beifu army of the former Qin Emperor Fu Jian's million-strong Hulu, in the Beifu army, Liu Yu, who had a bold and cheerful personality and strong martial arts, quickly came out, and accumulated military merits all the way to join the Beifu army, and also got acquainted with a large number of elite soldiers and fierce generals, and the resourceful people thought they were brothers.
When Liu Yu was thirty-six years old, the Heavenly Master Dao believers in the south of the Yangtze River rose up under the leadership of the sect leader Sun En, and the number reached hundreds of thousands within a month, and even captured Huiji, killing the famous general Xie Yan of the Beifu Army, Liu Yu followed the Beifu Army to suppress bandits, and was besieged in World War I, and finally relied on the world's magic skills to drive thousands of people, creating a mythical legend, and since then he has become a hero in the hearts of the people of the world.
This Liu Yu is not only famous for martial arts, but also talented, can be called a master of the art of war, although it is only a rough text, but the art of war is like innate, far higher than others, the world's strong soldiers are unwilling to be driven by it.
After several years of suppressing bandits and quelling the rebellion, Liu Yu turned the tide several times, and even resolved the landing when Sun En was most likely to overthrow the Eastern Jin Dynasty court and enter the Yangtze River from the sea to conquer Jiankang, and since then he has completed the counterattack of the hanging silk and become a senior general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
After suppressing the rebellion of Sun En, the court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was controlled by Huan Xuan from Jingzhou, that is, now Huguang Province, and later Huan Xuan disbanded the Beifu Army, and forced the Emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to abdicate and establish himself as the king.
At that time, Liu Yu did not have a single soldier in his hands, but he connected Liu Yi, He Wuji, his younger brother Liu Daogui, Zhuge Changmin, Meng Chang and the twelve heroes, and promoted Liu Yu as the leader, and took Liu Muzhi as the think tank, raised troops from Jingkou, and the Beifu Army and the Jianghu Ranger swordsmen all rushed to respond, and in less than five days, they broke Huan Xuan, drove him out of Jiankang, and completely eliminated the Huan clan forces in Jingzhou in about half a year, and restored the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
After that, Liu Yu became the number one real power figure in the imperial court with the merit of restoring the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and his eyes began to cast on the Hulu in the north, and the Wuhu Chaohua has been away for a hundred years, and the northern Zhuhu has formed the Northern Wei Dynasty with the north of the Yellow River, and the Southern Yan with the land of Shandong, as well as the three Hu states of the Later Qin that occupied the Longxi region of Guanzhong.
In his time, as long as the Northern Expedition was mentioned, and when he thought of the Hu people's fierce iron cavalry, everyone in the Eastern Jin Dynasty changed color, and almost did not dare to mention the expulsion of Hu Lu and the restoration of rivers and mountains.
And Liu Yu's heart is higher than the sky, but he wants to try what others can't, so after just pacifying the Huan Xuanyu Party, he began to fight in the Quartet, and there are still Tianshi Daoyu Party in the Lingnan area of Guangzhou, and Xishu took the opportunity to stand on his own when Huan Xuan usurped the Jin, and first chose the Murong Nanyan in Shandong as the target.
Liu Yuqin led 60,000 elite soldiers from Beifu to crusade against Southern Yan, Linqu battle, created a miracle of infantry defeating the Hu people's heavy ironclad cavalry on the plain, and wiped out Nanyan in one go, transported the Murong clan back to Jiankang and beheaded the public, the humiliation of the Han people for more than 100 years was once snowed, and the first northern Hu dynasty to be destroyed also greatly enhanced the confidence of the Han people, so that they saw the possibility of the success of the Northern Expedition.
However, the blessing is unparalleled, and the disaster is not a one-way street, the remnants of the Heavenly Master Dao took advantage of Liu Yu's Northern Expedition to raise troops all the way from Lingnan, and used the other two giants of the Beifu Army, Liu Yi and He Wuji, who stayed in the south, to quickly break these two Liu Yu's close comrades-in-arms in the form of a blitzkrieg, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers pointed directly at Jiankang.
So Liu Yu had to quickly return to the division, but the main force of the Northern Expeditionary Army encountered the plague, and the military situation was urgent, Liu Yu had to return to Jiankang City alone to organize the defense, and faced the hundreds of thousands of troops along the east of the Tianshi Road with only one or two hundred thousand temporarily conscripted troops.
