Le Yiyang saw the Khitan soldiers walking away, so he came out with Linghu City. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The info man said: "Yang'er, Cheng'er, now that the border is unstable, you can't go out alone next time." The two of them agreed, and then went home. The person who spoke just now was Le Yiyang's adoptive father, Lotte Zang.

It turned out that Lotte Zang and Qiao Niang fled to the border with Le Yiyang that day, and chose a place with abundant water and grass to become herdsmen. The two secretly fell in love and became husband and wife, but within half a year, Qiao Niang died of a strange illness because of unsuitability. Lotte Zang had to be alone, raising Le Yiyang while looking for Lin Hanyan's whereabouts. Now Le Yiyang is a seventeen-year-old boy, but his mother Lin Hanyan is still missing.

Although Lotte Zang is handsome in martial arts, he has never taught Le Yiyang a penny. Le Yiyang was puzzled and asked, "Father, if I can have the skills of Brother Linghu, I won't be afraid of Khitan Tartars." Lotte Zang replied: "You are a noble body, it is better to study more, and fight and kill all day long." Le Yiyang thought to himself: "I am the son of a herdsman, how can Jin Guizhi say that my father cherishes me too much." ”

Seeing that he was speechless, Lotte Zang smiled and said, "You will understand later." Reading can increase knowledge and wisdom. A little ink in the chest is sometimes better than a million heroes. Today you were almost killed by the Khitan Tartars, so take a look at the injuries on your back for your father. Le Yiyang also felt a dull pain in his back at this time, so he took off his clothes and sat back and forth with his father. Lotte Zang said: "Yang'er, I'll heal you." After speaking, he put his palms against his back, and Le Yiyang felt a stream of heat enter his vest, and the heat on his head gradually rose, and his forehead was dripping. It wasn't until the evening that Lotte Zang put down his palms, and Le Yiyang felt weak and fell asleep.

Lotte sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the sleeping Le Yiyang, as if he had returned to that night more than ten years ago. Suddenly, the sound of a horseshoe dog barking was remembered outside, and Lotte hid up and came to the window, and saw a large group of Khitan soldiers outside, each with a torch in their hands. Lotte Zang was shocked, thinking that these Khitan people came to seek revenge for the day's affairs, covered the quilt for Le Yiyang, took the long sword, and flew out of the house.

When those Khitan people saw that Lotte was hiding, they remembered the humiliation of the day, and divided more than 800 troops to chase after them, leaving only more than 100 horsemen to kill and plunder in the village. Linghu Cheng heard the noise, got up and took a sword to protect his family, and killed more than a dozen Khitan soldiers in one go. The people on the border usually learn some martial arts to defend themselves, and at this time, they are also comfortable with the Khitan soldiers. Those Khitan soldiers grabbed some things, and saw that their own people were also killed and wounded, and there was no advantage to take advantage of if they continued to fight, so they withdrew to the Khitan camp outside the border.

The 800 Khitan soldiers who chased after Lotte Tibet, but none of them returned. It turned out that Lotte Zang killed twenty or thirty Khitan soldiers, and gradually lost his physical strength, thinking that it was because he consumed too much internal strength when he treated Le Yiyang's injuries during the day. But seeing that these Khitan soldiers were extremely rampant, they killed them for a while and led them into the Valley of Death.

This Death Valley is well known in Daizhou, and no mortal can be spared after entering. Lotte Zang intended to die with these Khitan soldiers, and went all the way to the valley, leaving a letter and walking straight in. Those Khitan soldiers didn't know about Death Valley, and they all rushed in, and the eight hundred Khitan soldiers didn't even have a trace of people and horses.

When Le Yiyang woke up, he found that the bed was surrounded by people. Le Yiyang didn't know what was going on, so he quietly poked his head out and asked, "Uncles, what's going on?"

When everyone heard this, they fell silent. Le Yiyang saw that everyone pretended to be silent, knowing that things were not good. After half a pillar of incense, an old man with white hair stood up and said, "Yang'er, the matter has come to this, and we will not hide it. Last night, a Khitan team of 1,000 people went to the village to fight the grass valley, and your father alone led 800 Khitan soldiers into the valley of death and died together."

After hearing this, Le Yiyang felt that his feet were weak, and he was about to fall, but the people around him surrounded him and supported him: "Le Yiyang, your father is a big hero." We are all very proud of him. The Khitan dog thief killed my compatriots, and this blood revenge must be avenged. ”

Le Yiyang thought of his father's bones not cold, and his heart was full of pain. Le Yiyang originally wanted to go to the capital Kaifeng Mansion to participate in the imperial examination of the Great Jin Dynasty, and came back to honor his father after winning the list, but at this time, there was an incident of Khitan soldiers entering the country and plundering.

Le Yiyang couldn't calm down for a long time, and thought in his heart: "Revenge requires real skills, but I don't know anything about martial arts, when can I avenge my father?" he stood up and looked at the land in the distance. By this time the sun had risen, and the brilliant sunlight shone on the land, at odds with the images of broken houses, burning flags, and wild dogs foraging for food. An hour had passed, and the air was still filled with the thick smell of blood, mixed with the smell of burnt cloth.

After a hurried breakfast, everyone decided to stay away from the border and head towards Taiyuan. Le Yiyang also packed his luggage and went with them. As soon as he walked out of the village, he saw a team of men and horses dressed in black galloping towards him from a distance. Seeing this, everyone hurriedly dispersed to the grass on both sides of the road. Le Yiyang was also pulled to the grass by a person. This person is none other than his friend Ling Hucheng. In today's fierce battle, the nineteen-year-old Linghu Cheng killed more than a dozen Khitan soldiers in a row, and now he has become a little hero on the border.

Before they could speak, the pair had already come to the middle of the road, and when they looked closely at their costumes, it turned out that they were party soldiers. In fact, it is not surprising that this was originally an unattended area, and soldiers from all countries were unimpeded. It's just that there are very few scenes like those in the morning. The group stopped. A general-like man stepped off his horse, stroked his long beard, pointed to the tall weeds on either side, and said, "You see, this is really a good place to set up an ambush. The other soldiers cheered.

The man said: "The Jin Kingdom thinks that it has the orthodoxy of China, and we and the Khitan are always in a disadvantageous position, if we can capture the King of Beiping of the Jin Kingdom alive today, we can control the Jin Kingdom." At that time, even the Khitan did not dare to underestimate us. Our party will definitely be able to unify the Central Plains and pass on to all generations without dying. The others responded: "The general sees wisely, and we are all willing to do our best for the party's thousands of years and thousands of achievements, and we will die." All the soldiers swore and raised the wolf knife. The bearded man said loudly: "All the soldiers listen to the order, today must capture the king of Beiping of the Jin Kingdom, if they are blocked, they can be killed except for the king of Beiping!" After the arrangements were made, the party soldiers also hid on the side of the road, and they were only a hundred steps away from the people of the Jin Kingdom.

Le Yiyang and Ling Hucheng vaguely heard what they said, and their hearts were shocked. Le Yiyang saw that this group of party soldiers was menacing, and he didn't come up with a way to deal with it for a while. He is familiar with poetry and books, and knows a thing or two about the history of the Dangxiang clan. The Dangxiang clan was originally a branch of the Xiqiang ethnic group. During the Han Dynasty, a large number of Qiang people moved to Helong and Guanzhong. During the Sui Dynasty, some party Xiang Qiang began to attach themselves to the Central Plains regime. During the Tang Dynasty, after two internal relocations, the party was gradually concentrated in the eastern part of Gansu and the northern part of Shaanxi, and it was still dominated by scattered tribes. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, when Wang Xianzhi and Huangchao rebelled, Tang Xizong passed on the king of Qin. The Dangxiang clan Youzhou Assassin Shi Tuoba Sigong sent troops and united other forces to defeat the rebel army. Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty gave Tuoba Sigong as the "envoy of the difficult festival", and later named him the Duke of Xia Guo, given the surname Li, and the places under his jurisdiction included Xiazhou, Yinzhou, Suizhou, Youzhou, Jingzhou and other five states. Three hundred miles west of Taiyuan, it is the territory of Li Yiyin, the prince of Xia Guogong of the party clan. Could it be that the party is in collusion with the Khitan, and also wants to wait for an opportunity to get a piece of the pie in the Central Plains.

Thinking of this, Le Yiyang couldn't help but be angry and said: "Now that the king of Beiping is in trouble, how can we stand idly by?" The crowd suddenly discussed, and one person said: "Having said that, we and others have few soldiers to get out of the crisis, and now it is difficult to protect ourselves!" Another person also responded: "At this time, it is best to quietly move to the north and avoid that group of party soldiers, this is the best way to survive." ”

Seeing that everyone intended to protect themselves, Le Yiyang couldn't help but be angry in his heart, and said: "You are all people I respect, and you usually teach me to be a loyal and patriotic person. Now that the king of Beiping is about to suffer, it is unkind for me to sit down and not save him, and if the general suffers an accident, we will be disloyal to the Great Jin. And if the party captures Wang Yesheng back, it will be the people of my Dajin who will suffer in the end. If we can protect the general from danger, the party will have no reason to restrain us in the future. Then the people of Dajin can still live a stable life. And I often hear the merchants in Taiyuan transit think about the sage of the prince, if the prince is really unlucky, it is a loss for the country. ”

Ling Hucheng was silent and thoughtful. After a while, Ling Hucheng held Le Yiyang's hand and said, "Brother Yang is right, we can't stand idly by. Seeing that Le Yiyang and Ling Hucheng, a friend of Wen Yiwu, insisted on saving the king of Beiping, they didn't say anything anymore, and each took out their usual weapons for self-defense and prepared to fight with the party soldiers.

This king of Beiping is Liu Zhiyuan, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, and after Shi Jingjiao, the ancestor of Jin, Liu Zhiyuan's official position rose year after year, and finally returned to Taiyuan to be the envoy of Hedong Jiedu. After Shi Jingjiao's death, the new emperor Shi Chonggui remembered Liu Zhiyuan's dedication to the Great Jin Dynasty, and named him the king of Beiping. In recent years, the Khitan army has sent troops to invade the south several times, and Liu Zhiyuan judged the situation and proposed to Shi Chonggui to return to Taiyuan to train and prepare for war as early as two years ago.

Taiyuan is located between the Jin Kingdom, the Khitan and the Dangxiang, and the geographical location is dangerous, and it has always been a place for the Central Plains Dynasty. Li Yuan, Li Cunxuan, and Shi Jingjiao all originated in Taiyuan, and then obtained the throne. With control of Taiyuan, the border can be worry-free. The emperor set Liu Zhiyuan's fief at the throat of the country, which can be described as well-intentioned.

But Liu Zhiyuan should have been in Taiyuan, how could he appear in Daizhou today. It turned out that Khitan soldiers plundered everywhere along the northwestern border in an attempt to provoke a large-scale war. Liu Zhiyuan received information a few days ago, and while he quickly reported the emergency military situation to the capital, he immediately went to the border to check around.
