Chapter 43 Yanmen Pass

Yanmen Pass is majestic and magnificent, straight through the northern country, is the only place to pass through to the Turks, is the place where the soldiers of the past dynasties must fight, and is also a heavy barrier to prevent the nomads of the Yan Dynasty from entering the Central Plains, towering and tall, such as a huge lock and key, lying between heaven and earth, countless geese are flying from the low-lying place on the pass, because the terrain is too high, when the wild geese fly, they can only fly through the low-lying place of the pass, because of the Yanmen cloud.

At that time, the guard of Yanmen Pass was Zhang Wenyuan, who was named the general of Zhenbei and the captain of the Xiao Cavalry, and there were 8,000 elite soldiers of the imperial court stationed here. Although he did not belong to the direct jurisdiction of the Tang Dynasty, after all, in Anxi, he still indirectly worked under the Tang Dynasty, so he didn't dare to offend him.

During the Tang Dynasty, the Anxi Prefecture included the northern and southern parts of the Tianshan Mountains in present-day Xinjiang and the surrounding areas of India, and the land was vast.

"Xiaguan Zhang Wenyuan greets the Tang Dynasty marshal!" When he first arrived at the pass, the guard general Zhang Wenyuan led a large number of subordinate generals to welcome him, the armor was clear, the spirit was vigorous, the knife was out of the sheath, the bow was wound, and they were extremely fierce, and they knew at a glance that they were the elite soldiers of the northern country who had been tempered by thousands of tempers!

Tang Dynasty secretly shouted in his heart, after walking for so long, although the prefectures and counties he passed through were all greeted by soldiers, the soldiers here were the most elite.

The soldiers who verified the identity of the Tang Dynasty had already reported the news of the arrival of the Tang Dynasty's capital to Zhang Wenyuan.

"Excuse me!" Tang Chao stretched out his hand, like him, he pulled up, but suddenly it didn't feel right.

Because he felt that Zhang Wenyuan's hand seemed to have a thousand catties of strength, he couldn't lift him when he lifted it lightly. Hehe, Tang Chao sneered in his heart, test my martial arts?

At the moment, he was silent, latent internal force, and his arms fluttered at the mention, Zhang Wenyuan immediately felt that his body was empty, and he was a foot from the ground, and then he was put down by Tang Chaoxun, and the people next to him didn't have time to see the battle clearly, but the temptation was over.

Tang Dynasty has already felt that this person's martial arts are good, and the foundation is very solid, although Tang Dynasty seems to hold him up lightly, but in fact, he used all his strength, so calm!

But even so, Zhang Wenyuan was already shocked in his heart, he thought that this young man had no martial arts, but he didn't expect kung fu to be so good.

In fact, although he was afraid of offending the Tang Dynasty, after all, he despised the Tang Dynasty very much, thinking that he was just relying on a little white face and ancestor Yu Yin to become such a big official, so he looked down on him very much, and took the opportunity to test his martial arts when he took the opportunity to test his martial arts, but it was not any malice, but it was just for a while, thinking that the Tang Dynasty's martial arts were low, he must not know that he was tempting, and he couldn't imagine that he had suffered such a big loss.

"Please, please come in, Tang Dashuai!" Zhang Wenyuan's face was flushed, but his eyes were full of respect.

The people behind the Tang Dynasty, only Sheva and others saw what happened just now, and saw that the Tang Dynasty was not surprised, and walked in kindly, along the way, three steps and one soldier, five steps and one post, all of them stood like javelins, which made him very satisfied, and a bold thought suddenly flashed in his heart.

Zhang Wenyuan is a person who has been in the officialdom for a long time, his martial arts are powerful, but he is not stupid, and when he entered, he gave a gift, which was actually 3,000 taels of silver tickets.

Tang Chao happily took it, this little money was just a drop in the bucket for a person like him, but it was simply received, but Zhang Wenyuan had a lot of good feelings towards him.

"Your martial arts seem to have been passed down all the way from Shaolin Temple, which is fierce and violent, and has the momentum of destroying the withering and decaying." Tang Chao drank a cup of tea and said casually.

Zhang Wenyuan could no longer imagine that the Tang Dynasty would not talk about promotions and derogations in the officialdom, but when he talked about martial arts, he was interested, and nodded: "Yes, I am the seventh generation descendant of the thirteen monks of Shaolin Temple, and I learned the Vajra palm method and boxing method!" ”

"Oh, it turned out to be a celebrity!" Tang Dynasty, remembered the Tang Dynasty when the founding of the country, these thirteen Shaolin monks joined Li Shimin's army, made great military achievements, these thirteen people were named the prince of the country because of their merits to the imperial court, but they did not envy the rich and glorious life, only asked to continue to practice in the Shaolin Temple, Li Shimin was very moved, the Shaolin Temple around the field rewards countless to these people, the Shaolin Temple as a place for these people to practice, protected by the state, and then gradually played the reputation of the Shaolin Temple, most of these monks accepted apprentices, It has been passed down for thousands of years.

The Tang Dynasty traveled to this era, and when he gathered with the minister, it was inevitable that someone would talk about the events of the year, so he learned.

"Don't dare, Tang Dashuai, you shouldn't be very old, why do you have such powerful martial arts, Xia Guan is really willing to bow down! I don't know what kind of kung fu you just lifted me up, it's really amazing! When he spoke, there was an incomparably envious look in his eyes.

Tang Chao laughed: "Master Zhang is too humble, my hand is a technique in the Tang hand I learned, called Tingjin, when it comes into contact with your body, it can accurately judge your center of gravity, and then destroy your balance, I just now, just attacked you by surprise, in fact, your kung fu is far above me!" ”

The Tang Dynasty now knows that the martial arts on the "Kuocang Mountain Martial Arts" that he practiced actually have another name, that is, the Tang hand that has been passed down through the ages in later generations.

"Listen to it, it's really amazing, it's a pity that I don't know this martial art." He was very embarrassed.

Tang Chao suddenly took his hand: "Where does Master Zhang speak, let's go, Ben Shuai has a few words to talk to you alone!" As he spoke, he glanced at Sheva and the Four Tigers of the Zhuan clan behind him, and took care of Chang'an's affairs and did not follow.

Zhang Wenyuan immediately understood, led the way first, came to a secret room, closed the door and said: "Tang Dashuai, if you have anything to say!" ”

The Tang Dynasty was not in a hurry, and said the method of listening to the strength in the "Kuocang Mountain Martial Arts", how to grasp the enemy's momentum, how to perceive the enemy's center of gravity, although the people of this era did not understand what the center of gravity was in the physics book as well as before the crossing, but they still quickly understood, and then the Tang Dynasty introduced how to listen to the center of gravity, how to destroy, Zhang Wenyuan listened, there was a feeling of surprise: "Thank you Tang Dashuai Dashuai, after I have your guidance, martial arts can be improved by at least three percent." ”

He said it well, this person is also very hard at practicing martial arts, but he only dabbled in the King Kong boxing method, blindly fierce, it is nothing to encounter a low hand, and he can also play a powerful role, but when he encounters a master, he is not, blindly punching fiercely, and the strength will definitely not continue, and he is bound to lose!

The Tang Dynasty taught him to listen to the strength, but it opened a magical door to martial arts for him, how to use his strength just right, more ingenious, how can he not like it?

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just a little rough kung fu I learned, I hope to learn like this, and we will do it often in the future." As he spoke, he began to walk out, as if he had not forgotten to repay his kindness.

Of course, Tang Dynasty knew in his heart that this was a method of retreating into advance.

Sure enough, Zhang Wenyuan took his hand: "Tang Dashuai, what are you asking me to say so hard." Don't worry, even if you kill my head, I Zhang Wenyuan will not frown, if you don't dislike it, treat me as a friend, in the future, I will go to the fire and the water, in short, my Zhang Wenyuan's life is sold to you! ”

A person like him, who has been in the officialdom for so long, already knew the best points when he saw the posture of the Tang Dynasty, and the reason why he didn't express his position immediately was that he was quietly weighing it in his heart, but now, he suddenly let it go and said it at the moment.

The Tang Dynasty was overjoyed: "If you have a brother like Zhang Wenyuan, my wish is also!" Holding his hand tightly, he knew that he was now engaged in a gamble, if he won, he might be in a different place, but if he lost, it was possible to be in a different place, and he also had to take Zhang Wenyuan's life, he was not sure whether Zhang Wenyuan was a bloody man, so he only talked about martial arts and nothing else, in fact, it was difficult to speak.

"Tang Dashuai, even if you don't say it, I know what you ask me to do." Zhang Wenyuan said, his voice surprisingly calm.

"What's it, tell me about it?" The Tang Dynasty came interested.

"You're trying to borrow troops from me, am I right?"

"Haha, the parents of the person who gave birth to me, and Zhang Wenyuan, the person who knows me, how do you know?" Tang Chao was very excited, and his voice trembled a little.

"This is not simple, there has never been a person who is a commander to teach his generals martial arts, and also, the emperor has transferred the troops guarding the north back to the Central Plains one after another during this time, he definitely doesn't want the north, but he didn't expect to send a young man like you to be the commander, and he didn't bring grain and grass with him, doesn't this mean that the emperor deliberately asked you to take risks?"

He knows everything he has, this person is obviously a person who is familiar with officialdom, and he can't hide anything from him.

Tang Chao sighed: "What Lord Zhang said is right, although I am the emperor's concubine, but the emperor doesn't seem to like me, this time I was sent here to be the protector of Anxi, and the original elite soldiers were transferred back to the Central Plains, without food, it is clear that I want to wait for my defeat to remove my officials, but I really don't want the large land of the northern country." ”

Seeing the sincerity of the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Wenyuan was very moved: "Could it be that the marshal confessed like this, so that the soldiers I closed, you bring 5,000 elite soldiers with you, and only leave 3,000 to guard the pass." ”

"Ah, this, if the emperor knows about it and blames it, but it's not me who has caused Lord Zhang?" Tang Dynasty was a little apprehensive, after all, although Zhang Wenyuan and himself surrendered, but after all, it was a first friendship, so he put his whole life on himself, the risk was huge, he originally meant that he just wanted him to promise to send troops to help in difficult times, but he didn't expect him to be so generous.

Zhang Wenyuan said: "Tang Dashuai, don't worry, you are a person like you, the lucky stars shine brightly, even if there are small ups and downs, but you will definitely be able to achieve a great cause, I know, I am doing this, it is equivalent to gambling, if you can control the situation in the Western Regions, then I will win, otherwise, I will take this life, the eldest husband was born in the world, if you want to make meritorious contributions, you have to gamble a few times, this time, I let it go!" ”

"Okay, good man, you brother, I made it to the Tang Dynasty!" Gripping his hand tightlyβ€”

But Zhang Wenyuan's heart was unusually happy, thinking in his heart, I am proficient in physiognomy, and when I look at the appearance of this Tang Dynasty, I know that he is a rich and noble person, and the auspicious stars shine brightly, there are some dangers, and he can always turn evil into good fortune, so he agreed to such a major decision, but not only because the Tang Dynasty was the capital of Anxi, but he borrowed troops in order to tie him up.
