Chapter 778 The meaning of the palace

When Wang Yan was a child, he had heard about Li Xian's deeds. Including eighteen cavalry to Liaodong, almost among the ten thousand armies of Goguryeo Marshal Ulzhi Wendeok was killed. snatched back the corpse of the old Sui general Mai Tiecane, and Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry became famous in a battle. After that, Li Xian rebelled and left the imperial court and set up a cottage in Yanshan.

After that, with more than 1,000 people, he rushed thousands of miles from Yanshan, the northernmost part of the Great Sui, to attack Juyeze in Dongping County, slaughtered the giant thief Zhang Jin in two battles, and then defeated Wang Bo, the Zhishilang who was in full swing at that time, which directly led to Wang Bo, who was very likely to become the overlord of the Green Forest Road at that time, and now he has become an unused general under Dou Jiande.

After taking over Qi County and Lu County, Li Xian's name began to spread widely in the territory of the Great Sui. Playing against Wagangzhai, which is the first in strength on the green forest road, he has never been defeated.

Kill Wen Jiao and capture Yang Guang.

Punish Liu Heimin and destroy Du Fuwei.

Everything is earth-shattering enough.

In the past ten years, Li Xian has gone from being an unpopular little horse thief to becoming the most powerful person in the world today, relying on more than just luck.

It was also at a very young age that Wang Yan knew that Li Xian had a black knife, a big black horse that was unparalleled in the world, and a signature black armor.

He remembered that his father-in-law, Wang Fubao, had mentioned Li Xian more than once. Although there is no intersection, the father-in-law has a lot of respect for this person. Wang Fubao once said, not to mention Li Xian's many later things, just to say that in Liaodong with 20,000 soldiers of the Great Sui Mansion to fight out of the siege and return to the Central Plains, which lasted more than a month and fought for more than 1,000 miles, this matter is by no means something that can be done by a random person.

Although at that time, most of the heroes on the green forest road used luck to summarize the glory of Li Xian's battle.

More than one person once said that if he was in Liaodong at the time, he would still be able to bring back those 20,000 soldiers, and with those 20,000 soldiers, it would be easy to conquer a territory of his own. You must know that during the first expedition to Liaodong, Yuwenshu led 300,000 soldiers who went south to raid Pyongyang City, but they were the most elite men and horses in the Great Sui.

You must know that until the Great Sui established itself until the conquest of Liaodong, the government soldiers never lost in foreign wars! Even in the face of the steppe wolf, which is known as the best in the world, he is not afraid.

Destroy Nan Chen, conquer Tu Guhun, fight against the Turks, and make a name for himself in every battle.

Luo Yi single-handedly wounded the Khan in the army, and the 2,000 cavalry of Daxi Changru resisted 400,000 wolf cavalry.

It doesn't depend on how strong their individual martial arts are, but because they all have a hundred battles under them!

Listening to this person's story and growing up, Wang Yan also had a lot of unconvincing in his heart. He once said to Wang Fubao that one day he would lead his troops to meet Li Xian. Then he must have torn Li Xian's black armor, broken Li Xian's black knife, snatched the big black horse again, and finally cut Li Xian's throat.

When he first heard his ambition, Wang Fubao laughed.

It's not a sarcastic laugh, but a praise for Yoshiko's pride.

But when this day really came, Wang He found that the gap between reality and ideals was like an insurmountable gap. It wasn't until he faced Li Xian that he realized that he was not ready to fight this battle at all. He originally thought that the person who came was a general of the Yanyun army, the Yanyun army who had rushed from Yaocheng to support the remnants of the army besieged by him.

Even when he saw the huge Li character on the fiery red battle flag, he still couldn't react immediately.

And when he finally came to his senses, the big black horse carrying the black-armored knight had already arrived in front of him.

"Wang Ge!"

Seeing that the black-armored general suddenly appeared in front of him, Wang roared subconsciously and shouted, "Come to me!" ”

Since Wang Roar can remember, Wang Ge, the pro-soldier team, has been inseparable from him. Especially since he led the troops, Wang Ge and him have become like one person. Because Wang Ge had nine knives tied to Wang Yan's back, because it was Wang Fubao's birthday gift to Wang Yan over the years. Nine knives, each horizontal knife pinned on Wang Fubao's ardent hope for him, and also pinned on Wang Yan's own ambition to dominate the world.

Wang Ge knew the importance of these nine horizontal knives to Wang Yan, and he also knew his importance.

So he arrived at Wang Roar's side as soon as possible, and at this time, Wang Roar happened to raise the horizontal knife in his hand and tried to cut the oncoming black-armored general off his horse. Wang Ge knew Wang Yan's martial arts, and he was even sure that even the great general Wang Fubao might not be Wang Yan's opponent.

In fact, since the age of fifteen, Wang Yan has struggled to find a rival in the Xia army.

Someone once said that even the Great Xia Tiger Su Dingfang may not be able to win the nine knives in Wang Yan's hands.

When Wang Ge urged the horse forward, exposing his back in front of Wang Roar, the horizontal knife in Wang Roar's hand had already been raised into the air. The reason why Wang Ge rushed in front of Wang Roar was so that Wang Roar could pull out those horizontal knives from behind him more smoothly. He followed Wang Yan when he was still a child, and a shocking tacit understanding had formed between the two of them.

But this tacit understanding is vulnerable in front of that person.

Wang Ge was in place, and Wang roared and danced the knife.

But at this moment, the black figure like a demon came to them. In a trance, Wang Ge seemed to see a black lightning suddenly explode in that person's hand, which was a lightning that burned with a black flame that could burn everything. His eyes narrowed suddenly, and he suddenly felt that this black was so strange and beautiful.

The Blackarmor General had a lightning bolt in his hand.

This was Wang Ge's first feeling, he didn't have time to think about anything else. The black knife, which was far longer than an ordinary horizontal knife, instantly sank into Wang Ge's neck, and with a bang, the chain mail on his neck was easily cut by the blade, and it was his neck that was cut next.

Before Wang Ge lost consciousness, he even heard a series of extremely crisp sounds.

The eight horizontal knives that he didn't have time to pull out by Wang Roar behind him were cut off with a single knife almost at the same time!

The eight knives were broken, and Wang Ge's neck was also broken. When his head flew into the air, he even saw that the horizontal knife raised by the major general Wang Yancai was also cut off by the devil-like person, followed by the black blade, slashing from top to bottom.

After the human head is cut off, there is a very short period of time for it to be visible and audible.

Because of this, Wang Ge saw a ball of blood blooming on the young general's chest.

Major General...... I didn't even have a knife to cut it out!

……

……

"Going to battle with so many knives...... Interesting. ”

Before Wang Yan, who fell to the ground, fell into a coma, he heard the black-armored general speak in a trance.

"It's just killing, why nine knives?"

After saying this, the black-armored general urged the big black horse to sit down and continue to rush forward. Then Wang Yan lost consciousness, his eyes gradually dimmed, and then he fell into darkness. The reason why he didn't die was only because his luck was really incomprehensible.

Later, when Wang Yan recalled it, he realized that the reason why Li Xian didn't look at him again was because Li Xian was confident that the knife would kill him, and Li Xian didn't know that he had a golden silk armor that Dou Jiande gave to Wang Fubao. When he awoke, hundreds of his own soldiers snatched him out of the hooves, dragged him onto his horse, and fled for his life.

He was not killed by Li Xian's knife, nor was he trampled to death by a war horse.

Even he thought it was a little incredible.

It was precisely because of this that he understood how ridiculous his previous ambitions were. Kill Li Xian, break the black knife, break the black armor, and rob the black horse...... In front of Li Xian's knife, it was just a joke that didn't go into the stream.

Little

He sadly found that Li Xian had not looked at himself from beginning to end. Maybe in Li Xian's eyes, he is just a little person who is even more unpopular.

He didn't know how he escaped, and the hundreds of soldiers who protected him were only a dozen or so after they were out of the warband. And Yan Yun Jingqi didn't seem to be interested in these dozen people at all, and didn't pay attention to them at all and fled. When Wang Yan, who woke up in the bump, turned around to look, he found that the cavalry under his command had been shattered by the impact of Yan Yunjing's cavalry.

After killing the cavalry of the Xia Army, the elite cavalry of the Yanyun Army, which was divided into countless squads, combed back and forth like rakes. The defeated Xia cavalry did not have the slightest strength to resist, and the sound of wailing resounded in the sky.

Defeated

This was the first time Wang Yan had failed so badly.

He did not die under Li Xian's knife, nor did he die under Wang Fubao's knife. He actually knew very well that his father-in-law's knife had actually been chopped down, and it was cut in his heart. He didn't die, although Wang Fubao was angry to the extreme, although at a certain moment Wang Fubao really wanted to chop him with a knife. thought that he was trampled over by Wang Fubao, and thought of the continuous bleeding from his wounds...... A trace of pain flashed in Wang Yan's eyes, and he didn't doubt that if Su Zhi and others hadn't stopped him at that time, his father-in-law's knife would definitely have been cut down.

Lying on the bed of the military tent, Wang Yan looked at the top of the big tent with empty eyes.

He didn't know what he was thinking, or if he wasn't thinking about anything.

At this moment, the curtain of the tent was lifted from the outside. Wang He immediately closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, for he did not want to see anyone or talk to anyone now.

"How's Roar's injury?"

The man who came in walked up to him and asked.

Then the voice of the medical officer sounded beside Wang Roar: "Back to the general, the young general's injuries are very serious. If I hadn't used the medicine when I came back, I was afraid that I wouldn't have been able to save it. But even so, there is no guarantee that there will be no damage...... Humble Worries...... Even if the major general recovers his body, it will be difficult to regain his strength as before. The knife wound broke open the stomach and drained his vitality, and it was difficult to recover in a few years. ”

"Send someone to send him back to Zhaozhou...... There is not enough medicine for injuries in the camp, so it's better to go back to Zhouzhou, remember! If someone asks, they will say that the young general was wounded in battle, and if you mention the death of the cavalry, don't blame me for being ruthless! If this matter is known by the people in the court, it will not only be roaring...... I'll be implicated too! I can't pour at this time, otherwise ...... Who will guard Great Xia? ”

Hearing this, Wang Yan's heart couldn't help but feel sour.

He saved me...... But is it afraid that it will affect his future?

What he values...... Or his position as a great general?

Wang Yan felt a crack in his heart, bleeding.

……

……

When the carriage staggered into the city of Zhaozhou, the military department only sent a head of the sixth grade to wait at the door. Although Wang Fubao wrote Wang Roar as a hero who did not retreat in battle, there is no doubt that Wang Roar's status was not enough for the nobles in the court to greet him in person.

The head of the military department only explained a few words, and then turned to leave. The carriage started slowly, passing through the streets and alleys to the door of Wang Fubao's mansion.

Wang roared in the carriage, thinking that there were so many people on the street, and no one would have thought that there was a person lying in the carriage who had just crawled back from the ghost gate.

He smiled self-deprecatingly and couldn't help but mutter.

Little.

After entering the palace gate, Wang Yan had just laid down in his room when officials from the court came in to visit, but not to visit his injuries. When the expressionless officials stood in front of Wang Yan's bed, Wang Yan even delusionally imagined that what was standing in front of him was a bull-headed horse from the Netherworld.

"King Roar"

The official standing at the front was dressed in purple, and was obviously a senior member of the fourth rank or above.

"This official is Lang Ge Li, a squire of the Criminal Department, and I have come to ask you a few words by order."

This gloomy man in his forties, with a pale face as if he was sick, looked at Wang Yan, his eyes were poisonous like a cobra with baring its fangs, and his voice was cold and unpopular.

"You're hurt...... Is it because Wang Fubao is not effective in rescuing? Is it defeated? How's the downfall? How many soldiers died? How much land was lost? Has the Tang army already crossed the Zhanghe? Is Wang Fubao afraid of the war and retreating? The official also heard that Wang Fubao intends to surrender? Tang Jun's people, have they seen Wang Fubao? ”

Ge Li looked at Wang Yan and said seriously: "You have to think carefully, what the official asks you...... It's the meaning of the palace! ”
