Chapter 217: Another Departure
"What's good?"
"This!" Hua Chong took out a small box from his arms and handed it to Xu Chang: "Here are three pills, all of which are prepared by Senior Jiang and Senior Su with the elixir we brought back from Western Xia, a total of ten, one each for my master uncle and godmother, one each for Brother Bai, Brother Zhan, Fifth Brother and Ding family sisters, and the remaining three are reserved for you." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Shang Yunfeng didn't know what this thing was for, but he felt that these three pills should be priceless, so he hurriedly said: "I don't know what treasure this pill is, but my mother and daughter don't dare to suffer it without merit, so Lord Hua should stay." β
Hua Chong said with a smile: "This medicine can greatly increase internal strength, we have already taken it, and the head of the Shang family will be responsible for the major event of Emei's revitalization in the future, in order to prevent those young people from making trouble, the skill must be improved." β
"Since such treasures are so precious, my mother and daughter dare not bear them. β
"Where did the head of Shang come from, the county lord of Caixia has helped us fight with the king of Xiangyang many times, and the contribution is indispensable, all the materials of this elixir are also brought by us all the way from Western Xia. Among them, the county lord of Caixia has also done his best, how can there be no mother and daughter without the pill now that the pill is made?"
The two sides pushed me and gave each other humility for a long time, Shang Yunfeng finally accepted the two pills, and Xu Chang naturally took one. Shang Yunfeng knew that she had this pill under her control, and from now on, her Emei faction would be in debt.
After a few days, Hua Chong's body gradually recovered, and all the heroes basically left, even Jiang Tianda and Su Yuanhe also said goodbye and left. Su Yuanhe returned to Datong, and Jiang Tianda went to the capital to find his apprentice Pang Feiyan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Shang Yunfeng's mother and daughter are in charge of the affairs on the mountain, and in the past few days, there has basically been an improvement, and Hua Chong saw that Emei's matter had almost been dealt with, so he summoned his subordinates to discuss returning to Chang'an to help in the war.
Yu He said that he wanted to go into hiding, now that the Dali Kingdom has been destroyed by the Southern Tang Dynasty, the East China Sea Xiaopenglai is unable to go back, he is ready to take Xia Suiliang and Ji Chengda to travel around, find another place, and rebuild Bixia Palace. Hua Chong also knew that this matter was very important and could not be stopped, although Long Yunfeng was worried that something would happen to Hua Chong, but Xia Suiliang followed Yu He away, so she naturally had to follow.
Only Qian Wanli and Lotte Cheng were left behind by Yu He, the two of them were the most protective, they used to be worried about Hua Chong all day long in Bixia Palace, this time Yu He was ready to travel the world, so that the two of them could only add to their own blockage, simply leave them here, help Hua Chong, although these younger brothers have made great progress in martial arts, this Penglai Erxian is not a master, but looking at the rivers and lakes, these two people are also famous and surnamed, the king of Xiangyang has no Ruan Gong, and the rest of the people have no characters, these two old men are famous for their ruthlessness, and it is appropriate to stay and helpγ
After everyone had decided on the plan, they left separately, Yu He took the eight protectors and two disciples to the direction of the Central Plains, and Hua Chong took Bai Jintang, Zhanzhao, Five Rats, Xu Chang and the Ding family sisters to Chang'an. Before they arrived in Chang'an, they got an amazing news, the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty really negotiated peace, the Southern Tang Dynasty army withdrew from the Song Realm, the Great Song Dynasty named Li Qing as the king of Tang, the Dali Kingdom was destroyed, and its vassal position was inherited by the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it paid tribute to the Great Song Dynasty every year!
After the peace was negotiated, Marshal Huyan, who had been fighting with the Southern Tang Dynasty, directly waved his army to Chang'an, and attacked Di Qing head to end, and many counties and towns around Chang'an were recaptured by the Song army. Now Wang Jixian is guarding Chang'an, and Wang Jizu is guarding Tongguan, and they are each other's horns, and they are defending the city.
Hua Chong got the news and said to everyone: "We have to go quickly, let's go late, don't talk about eating meat, and even the soup is gone!"
"Yes, the king of Xiangyang has to be captured by our brothers!"
Everyone traveled all the way to the starry night, and finally arrived at the camp of Marshal Huyan, at this time, Tongguan, Chang'an line, the two armies have been attacking for half a month, Wang Jixian and Wang Jizu are relying on Tongguan, Chang'an is dangerous, but I am afraid that it will be a matter of time before the city is broken.
Marshal Huyan heard that Hua Chong was coming, and personally greeted them, and the two parted from Xiangyang, and it has been nearly two years now, and the old marshal is still in good spirits, talking and laughing.
"Lord Hua, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's always been good. β
Hua Chong said with a smile: "Thanks to the old marshal, in the past few years, he has not lost arms or legs. β
Marshal Huyan patted Hua Chong's shoulder and laughed: "Haha, you guys are not simple, I have heard that you have made a lot of trouble in Western Xia, Zhao Yuanhao and his son are dead, and now they are fighting with the Uighurs, and that time is a big favor for Di Dashuai." Sneak attack on Chaotianling, the grain storage for the Chang'an rebels was destroyed, and this time I almost took the king of Xiangyang in Mount Emei, after this battle, you kid is afraid that he is higher than my old man's official!"
Hua Chong hurriedly said humbly: "If it weren't for the old marshal, you and Di Dashuai, I wouldn't be able to fight so smoothly, how can a few of us help the old marshal this time?"
"Don't say it, I really need your help, this thing is done, and you guys are another great achievement!"
Hua Chong was in his spirits when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "What is the use of the old marshal for a few of us, but it doesn't hurt to say it." β
"This Tongguan city is strong, the terrain is dangerous, we attacked for half a month, but we didn't fight down, but lost thousands of men and horses. I've got an idea for them to dig into the city!"
"You're going to dig a tunnel with them?"
"Well, we tried it before, and these thieves are not afraid at all, because there is a jack gate under the wall of Tongguan, and our soldiers can't dig into it. So the tunnel has become a waste, now that you are here, I want to use this method again, this Lord Han Guard's firearms are the most powerful, I want to see if I can use gunpowder to blow up this jack ram!"
Everyone looked at Han Zhang, Han Zhang said: "I have to go and see this, what does this gate look like, if it is called a jack gate, it is not so heavy, maybe it can be exploded, if it is really a jack of iron gate, then the gunpowder can't be broken." β
Marshal Huyan nodded and said, "Okay, there are Lao Han guards to go to this tunnel to have a look." The old marshal led the way, and everyone followed the old marshal to the back of the camp, there was a dug hole here, and the old marshal ordered a deputy general who was in charge of digging the tunnel to lead the way, and Hua Chong, Han Zhang, and Bai Yutang followed.
The tunnel is not too long, about two or three miles away, the more you go inside, the more thin the air becomes, and when they come to the front of this jack gate, Han Zhang and Hua Chong both opened the fire fold and observed carefully.
In front of everyone was an iron wall, Han Zhang knocked it with his hand, pushed it again, shook his head and said: "Difficult! This gate is definitely thick enough, if you use gunpowder, even if you blow up the tunnel, you can't blow up this jack gate!"
Hua Chong sighed and said: "I thought that the battle would be decided, let's take Tongguan and go to Chang'an, and the design of this place is quite lacking in virtue if we didn't go to this place first!"
Bai Yutang said on the side: "This place can't be blown up, we can blow up other places!"
