Chapter Twenty-Four: Practicing Boxing

Not long after the first attack on Liao, the new emperor of Liao, Yeluchun, fell seriously ill and died soon. When Huizong learned the news, he thought that there was an opportunity, and in July, he sent Tong Guan to send troops, and Liu Yanqing, who was called a famous general, was the commander of the three cities of Heyang, replacing the seed master Dao.

When Jin Guo heard that Tong Guan had sent troops, he was afraid that once the Song army occupied Yanjing, the 500,000-year-old coins promised by the Song Dynasty would not be settled, so he contacted the Song Dynasty and hurriedly sent troops. At this time, the Liao State was leaderless, and the internal struggle for power and profit became more and more serious, and it was on the verge of extinction.

After Lu Yi came to Tong Guan's army, Tong Guan ordered Li Er to lead an army alone, and in addition to continuing to command his own 1,000 soldiers, he transferred 9,000 soldiers to Li Er, which was exactly 10,000.

Although Tong Guan was defeated in Liao last time, he was still powerful in the imperial court, and it can be seen from this time that Huizong still sent Tong Guan to go on the expedition. Naturally, no one in the Song army dared to say anything about Tong Guan's arrangement.

The sergeants transferred by Tong Guan naturally have no combat power, but Lu Yi is not short of money and food now. Li Ruowei has already connected with Tong Guan, and now she makes a lot of profits every day by selling illicit salt. A large amount of money and food was transferred, and naturally the morale was greatly boosted, and if Li Er trained for a period of time, these sergeants would also be quite effective.

After converging with Tong Guan, Tong Guan's army rushed towards Yizhou and Zhuozhou. This time the situation is very different from the last attack on Liao, the Liao State has been precarious, under the suggestion of Lu Yi, Tong Guan sent a letter to Zhuozhou guard Guo Yaoshi to persuade him to surrender, but he didn't expect Guo Yaoshi to surrender without saying a word.

Guo Yaoshi also saw that the Liao Dynasty was not in danger, so he thought of a way to retreat: surrender to the Great Song Dynasty. The Changsheng army led by Guo Yaoshi was the strong force of the Liao Dynasty, Sheji Gancheng, and the army of the Song Dynasty was simply incomparable, and under Lu Yi's arrangement, Guo Yaoshi's troops were still stationed in Zhuozhou.

Due to the surrender of Guo Yaoshi, the Liao State suddenly panicked, and the Yizhou guard saw that there was nothing to do, and hurriedly surrendered to the Great Song Dynasty, which made the Great Song Dynasty get two cities without spending a single soldier, and the morale of the Song army rose greatly for a while.

The attack on Liao was so smooth, the Song army naturally wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, Liu Yanqing immediately led the army to Yanjing, preparing to take the Nanjing Road of the Liao State in one fell swoop, so that the goal of the Northern Song Dynasty to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun was achieved.

What is the combat strength of the Song army, Lu Yi naturally knows it clearly, this time the Northern Expedition seems to be smooth, but the Song army then attacked Yanjing for a long time, and was counterattacked by the Liao Jedi, and finally ended up in a big defeat and loss.

Knowing this situation, Lu Yi naturally wouldn't go to Yanjing to join in the fun, and stayed in Zhuozhou City with Tong Guan. Under Tong Guan's arrangement, Li Er's 10,000 people were also stationed in Zhuozhou City, which was the foundation that Lu Yi had planned a long time ago, and many things could now be arranged.

In the following months, the Northern Song army really attacked Yanjing City, and the two sides were still in a stalemate. In the past few months, Lu Yi has already built an iron bucket in Zhuozhou City, not only replacing the officials up and down with his own people, but also secretly subduing Guo Yaoshi.

This Guo Yaoshi is also a good general, not only can fight well, but also known for his resourcefulness, but he was not taken seriously after the surrender of the Great Song Dynasty. Of course, there was also Lu Yi's instruction to deliberately let Pharmacist Guo be excluded, so Lu Yi came forward and used some means to subdue Pharmacist Guo. (This article is not a historical article, so military wars will be omitted as much as possible, and the focus will be on the rivers and lakes!) )

Tong Guan's power leans towards the government and the opposition, and this means is naturally not lacking, and it is with the help of Tong Guan that Lu Yi was able to subdue Guo Yaoshi. After subduing Pharmacist Guo and integrating Pharmacist Guo's army, Lu Yi's strength was also enhanced. Guo Yaoshi's army is a strong force in the Liao State, not comparable to the army of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Cuibeishan has accumulated a lot of money and grain for selling illicit salt over the years, and in the past few months, Lu Yi has sprinkled a lot of money and grain, and the morale of his soldiers has risen greatly. Under Li Er's training, these soldiers have begun to have combat effectiveness compared to the past.

Secretly, Lu Yi also organized a bomb force of 3,000 people, trained according to special methods, and directly commanded by Li Er. In this army, Lu Yi selected young and strong elites, and once they are trained, they will become the biggest hole cards in Lu Yi's hand.

In addition to these trivial matters, Lu Yi still cultivated during this time. After entering the innate realm, you must continue to polish your innate true qi, so that your innate true qi will gradually become stronger, this is a water grinding work, it takes time to accumulate slowly, and it is difficult to make much breakthrough for a while.

However, in terms of moves, Lu Yi has made great progress. After breaking into the innate realm, Lu Yi's vision is completely different, Taijiquan has gradually perfected in Lu Yi's hands, and Lu Yi, the Dugu Nine Sword, has cultivated to an extremely advanced realm, but it is a little difficult to break through again.

"All the exercises I practice are the top level, but these exercises are not my own way!" While practicing, Lu Yi was also constantly thinking about his martial arts.

Whether it is Dugu Nine Swords, or Jiuyang Divine Skill, or Tai Chi, all of them are the top exercises. But these exercises are not the martial arts created by Lu Yi, and following the path of his predecessors, Lu Yi believes that he will definitely gradually reach the peak of martial arts in this realm.

At the peak of this world, Lu Yi had seen it in Dugu's defeat. But this is not Lu Yi's ultimate pursuit, with a divine object like the Heavenly Creation Tower, Lu Yi naturally wants to go further, and breaking through the peak of this world is Lu Yi's ultimate goal.

"Originally, I thought that Taijiquan was my martial arts, and this boxing method can be said to be my own creation, which is very different from Taijiquan on the Blue Star, but now it seems that it still has traces of predecessors!" Lu Yi secretly thought about his own martial arts, and gradually discovered the problem.

There is no doubt that Taijiquan points to the pinnacle of martial arts, and even Dugu was once amazed. But the theoretical basis of Taijiquan was not created by Lu Yi. With his extraordinary understanding, Lu Yi deduced Taijiquan to the realm of thoughtlessness and invincibility, which is actually very rare, but it is almost impossible to make a breakthrough.

"It's not your own, it's not your own after all!" Almost every innate powerhouse will create their own martial arts, originally Lu Yi thought that his martial arts was Taijiquan, but now it seems that it is somewhat limited.

Taijiquan was originally a collection of Taoist martial arts, but Lu Yi created this exercise with the help of Wang Chongyang. Later, Wang Chongyang perfected this boxing technique before teaching it to Lu Yi again.

Taijiquan is not so much a boxing method created by Lu Yi, but rather a creation by Wang Chongyang. It contains Wang Chongyang's martial arts thoughts, but none of these are Lu Yi's. What Lu Yi wants is to truly create a Taijiquan of his own and completely break away from Wang Chongyang's influence.

In fact, Dugu's statement at that time was correct, if he only reached the peak of martial arts in this world, today's Taijiquan would naturally be enough. But what Lu Yi wants is a higher and stronger realm, so he must bring forth the new and find a path of his own.

"Why can't I integrate my mind and will into Tai Chi and create my own Tai Chi!" Once the idea is born, it is indelible.

"Boxing is an extension of one's will, different people perform the same boxing, and the artistic conception of boxing will not be the same. Practicing boxing is like being a person, boxing is like people's hearts, and if you want to practice boxing, you must understand yourself! Lu Yi continued to think about it, and gradually gained a new understanding of boxing.

"My greatest opportunity is the Heavenly Creation Tower, after owning the Heavenly Creation Tower, I am destined to travel through thousands of worlds and seize all kinds of creations to achieve myself!" Lu Yi understands that his biggest opportunity is the Heavenly Creation Tower, and after having the Heavenly Creation Tower, Lu Yi will inevitably travel to various worlds and seize the Creation Tower.

"So I can take Taijiquan as the core, absorb countless boxing methods in the heavens and ten thousand worlds, cultivate a hundred scriptures in one furnace, and create a truly invincible Taijiquan!" Thinking of this, Lu Yi has gradually realized how to take his future path.

In fact, Lu Yi has long known this road, and many arrangements in this world are also aimed at this goal. It's just that the authorities are confused, and Lu Yi didn't really understand his future path until this time.

After Lu Yi understood his own path, he continued to practice boxing. Combined with the subtleties of many boxing techniques and integrating his own ideas into boxing, Lu Yi's boxing techniques have gradually taken shape.

"Tai Chi Yin and Yang Pisces rotation, including the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, is the supreme essence, this Tai Chi Boxing wants to be perfected, in fact, it must fall on the word Yin and Yang!" At this time, the Tai Chi in Lu Yi's hand became extremely immature, like a baby toyder. However, the prototype of boxing has appeared, and Lu Yi only needs to continue to improve this set of boxing methods, and he will eventually walk out of his own path.

"With yourself as a melting pot, constantly integrating different boxing techniques, different martial arts, and refining into steel, you will naturally be able to achieve the strongest fist and suppress all opponents with one force!" The more Lu Yi thought about it, the clearer it became, and the boxing techniques he had seen in the past began to emerge in front of him, and began to gradually integrate into his own boxing techniques.

Just when Lu Yi was cultivating hard, a figure was gradually approaching Zhuozhou City. At this time, it was the middle of the night, there was no starlight in the dark night sky, and this figure flickered and moved, and it had already crossed the tall city wall of Zhuozhou City, and disappeared in Zhuozhou City in a blink of an eye.

The black figure moved quickly in Zhuozhou City, and this black figure seemed to be extremely familiar with Zhuozhou City, and there was hardly half a minute of pause when moving quickly. Soon, this black figure came to the garrison of Zhuozhou City, which was Tong Guan's mansion.

The martial arts of this black figure are also extremely high, and it keeps moving rapidly in the garrison, without alerting the guards in the garrison, and soon this black figure arrived outside Tong Guan's courtyard.

The black figure made a few leaps in the air and had already landed in Tong Guan's courtyard, but at this time, the black figure found that there was already a person standing in front of Tong Guan's door.
