Black Myth: Tang Dynasty

Chapter 554 Willing to Slay the Sword from the Waist to Slay Loulan!
in the room.

Li Shimin smiled and said: "Tai Chong, my daughter is about to be spoiled by you to the sky. If this continues, she will not be able to marry in the future."

Li Daoxuan smiled slightly.

"For those who practice the Tao, it is good to follow the fate of marriage."

Li Shimin joked: "That's not possible. If you are too aggressive, you are almost established, but you have not yet married and established a business. I am afraid that my ears will be nagged by the queen."

Li Daoxuan's smile faltered slightly.

Good guy, I have an inexplicable feeling of being urged to marry in my previous life.

"Don't talk about this, Your Majesty, but the food from Dengzhou has arrived?"

Li Shimin also put away his smile, and his expression became serious.

"That's right, now that everything is ready, I can finally give it a go!"

When Sui lost his deer and the heroes chased him, he led the army to conquer the world, put down Liu Wuzhou, Song Jingang, Dou Jiande and other heroes, and was named Tiance General.

It can be said that more than half of Datang's world was conquered by him.

However, after the Xuanwumen Incident, the Turks took advantage of the situation and entered Chang'an. Li Shimin, who had always been invincible, finally tasted the humiliation of the Weishui alliance.

That day on the banks of the Weishui River, Li Shimin watched the smoke and dust rising when the Turkic cavalry left, and listened to their arrogant and wanton shouts, and secretly swore in his heart.

One day, the sword will point at Mobei!

This day is finally here.

"Tai Chong, this is the edict to declare war on the Turks written by me personally. It is also an order to recruit talents, calling on the world's elite to join the army and serve the country. Take a look, how is it written?"

Li Daoxuan took the edict and read it carefully.

The writing is impassioned, vigorous and agitated, like the surging river, with the sound of gold and stone.

He noticed that the end of the imperial edict had been left blank on purpose without printing, and he guessed what Li Shimin was thinking, and couldn't help smiling.

"Your Majesty probably didn't just want me to see it."

Li Shimin laughed loudly, and said: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Tai Chong, I do have a merciless request."

Pointing to the blank part at the end, he said: "Everyone in Tang Dynasty loves poetry, and I have always admired Taichong's poetic talent, so I would like to ask you to write a poem about the expedition, firstly to inspire the soldiers, secondly to inspire Inspire the hearts of the world!"

Li Shimin appreciates the phrase "Let the flying generals of the Dragon City stay, and don't teach the Huma to pass the Yin Mountains", and the words "The Son of Heaven guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country" make him often recite it with great emotion.

Li Daoxuan sighed in his heart.

It seems that I can't erase my name as Wen Chaogong, I just borrowed other people's poems, and I will give it another chance in the future.

He is about to grind.

"Tai Chong and concentrating on composing poems, I will personally grind them for you!"

Li Shimin raised his sleeves, as an emperor, he actually grinds for Li Daoxuan himself, he has no grudges, instead there is a trace of expectation in his eyes.

Everyone in Tang Dynasty loves poetry, and he is no exception.

The fragrance of ink slowly rose, and Li Daoxuan swiped his brush, writing a poem in memory.

The handwriting is like iron hooks and silver paintings, and between the vertical and horizontal lines, it looks like a golden weapon and an iron horse, with the sound of a battlefield.

Li Shimin read the poem softly, his eyes sparkled, his blood surged up, and he called out three times in succession!
He carefully dried the ink, hid the imperial edict like a treasure, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, this edict will be spread all over the world, and my Tang Dynasty will usher in a great battle that attracts the attention of the world."

"Whether it's a dragon or a snake, it depends on this battle."

He didn't speak any more, but bowed deeply to Li Daoxuan.

Li Daoxuan also bowed to him.

The relationship between the two is very special, both the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, and the friendship of friends, and even the latter is far greater than the former.

In Li Shimin's heart, he was deeply grateful to Li Daoxuan.

Although he is an emperor, what he can give is nothing more than royal power and wealth, which are not very important to Taichong.

But what Taichong gave him was his family, country and world, the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

It is a great fortune to have such a good teacher and helpful friend.

……

The next day.

A piece of imperial edict proclaimed the world, setting off an invisible storm.

In Chang'an City, many people crowded around the bulletin board, scrambling to stretch their necks, wanting to take a look at the imperial edict.

The people in front were very excited and burst into tears.

"War has been declared, Your Majesty... has declared war on the Turks!!!"

"It turns out that some time ago, the locust plague and plague in Dengzhou were all caused by the Turks. Those beasts can't be exaggerated!"

"Is there really going to be a war? I heard that the Turkic cavalry is invincible. Can we win?"

"Hehe, my Great Tang also has black armored cavalry, so why be afraid of them?"

"That's right, not to mention we still have a national teacher!"

……

People were discussing and the atmosphere was in full swing.

The people behind heard this impatiently, and shouted for the people in front to recite His Majesty's imperial edict.

"Don't worry, I'll read it for everyone."

A white-clothed scholar cleared his throat, and began to read aloud with passion.

"Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the Yidi have crossed the Yin Mountains eight times, repeatedly violated the border, burned, killed and looted, and committed all kinds of crimes, so that the people on the border of the Tang Dynasty have wives but no husbands, sons but no mother. , the waves of the East China Sea will never end..."

Hearing this, the people nodded one after another, showing resentment.

Although they were born in Chang'an, they have heard a lot about this kind of thing, and during the Weishui alliance, many people's homes in Chang'an were emptied by the Turks.

The scholar in white changed his language.

"The national teacher once said, but let the flying generals of the Dragon City stay, and don't teach the Huma to go to the Yinshan Mountains. However, I think that if the bandits can go there, so can my Tang cavalry!"

"I want to command a million troops to crush the Yin Mountains, shake up the power of the sky to use the chaotic world, drive the barbarians from the yellow sand, save the living people from the misery, and restore the dignity of the Han family!"

The white-clothed scholar's voice paused, and then there was a hint of joy in his eyes, and his voice was sonorous and powerful.

"A lot of blood feuds will not end without destroying the country. I will return to the Tang Dynasty by stepping on the court of the king. After this battle, the people of the Tang Dynasty will not be proclaimed ministers, pay tribute, make peace, pay compensation, or cede land. The emperor guards the gate of the country. The king will die to the country!"

"This imperial edict is also proclaimed to all nations, and it will be reported to the nations of the world that anyone who violates our Great Tang will be punished no matter how far away."

"Don't say it's unexpected, let's look at today's Yidi."

The white-clothed scholar read with enthusiasm, wishing he could join the army and serve the country immediately.

The common people were also infected by the boldness and self-confidence in this edict. The soul-stirring words, after being recited by white-clothed scholars full of emotion, were like a seed planted into the soil.

They just felt that they had never been so happy before, and for some reason, their crooked bodies subconsciously stood upright.

"By the way, at the end of the edict, there is also a poem written by the national teacher himself."

The people's eyes lit up when they heard the words, and they quickly asked him to read it out.

Everyone in the Tang Dynasty loves poems, even ordinary civilians will casually recite a few masterpieces of predecessors.

"In May, there is snow in the Tianshan Mountains, there are no flowers, only cold."

"I heard the broken willows in the flute, but I have never seen the spring scenery.

"Dawn fights with the golden drum, night sleeps with the jade saddle."

After reading this, the scholar in white took a deep breath and finally recited the last sentence.

"I would like to put down the sword from my waist to cut Loulan!"

Loulan was a country in the Western Regions during the Han Dynasty. Its king was very greedy for money and repeatedly killed the Han envoys to the Western Regions.

Loulan in the past is the Turks of today.

The arrogant and domineering Jieli Khan will eventually be buried in the yellow sand just like the greedy King Loulan!
As soon as this poem came out, it immediately attracted a lot of applause.

Needless to say, scholars, even ordinary people like this kind of catchy and extraordinary poems very much. Coupled with the great reputation of the national teacher Li Daoxuan, it is conceivable that this "Song of the Next Song" is destined to be popular soon. Spread throughout the Tang Dynasty.

"The imperial edict also said that capable people and strangers from all over the world are called on to go to the Yin Mountains to fight against barbarians. If they have made meritorious service, they will not only be promoted to rank, but also be able to get advice and elixir from the national teacher!"

In the crowd, some people who have been silent all the time, their eyes flashed after hearing this sentence, showing a look of emotion.

These are casual cultivators, they may not have a strong sense of belonging to the Tang Dynasty, and they don't care about gold, silver and treasures, but the personal guidance of the celestial master Li Daoxuan, as well as the elixir from Longhu Mountain, made them very excited.

Especially the former, no one knows now that Li Daoxuan even killed the locust god in Dengzhou, and he has faintly invincible power in the world.

To get a piece of advice from him is definitely a great fortune that can't be met!

"Ge Laozi, wealth and wealth are in danger, Daoist, I have been in the early stage of Yinshen for too long, instead of dying of old age, it is better to fight one time!"

An old Taoist priest with a gray beard flashed his eyes, and with the seal formula in his hand, he quietly escaped into the ground and headed towards Yinshan Mountain.

Similar things keep happening everywhere.

Some people joined the army out of righteous indignation after reading the imperial edict, while others were influenced by the "Exodus Song" and wanted to imitate Fu Jiezi, go to foreign lands, and establish immortal achievements.

Others were monks who had encountered bottlenecks and went for Li Daoxuan's name.

All in all, this edict undoubtedly set off a storm in the Tang Dynasty, and it became more and more powerful, like a wind blowing thousands of miles, blowing across the Yumen Pass.

……

Yinshan.

General Li Jing stood on the platform, his red cloak fluttering in the wind like a flag.

Only a clang and a sword sound were heard.

The sword light illuminated his cold and resolute eyes.

"I would like to put the sword down from the waist and cut Loulan straight."

He pointed his sword to the north, which was the direction of the Turkic royal court.

"Datang, go out!"

boom!
Numerous soldiers of the Tang Dynasty came out of the camp in an orderly formation, with a solemn and solemn appearance, and their steps were like the roar of war drums, making the ground under their feet tremble.

One hundred thousand men are all in armor, and the blue sky and white sun are Tang Qi!
General Li Jing, the Duke of Wei, commanded the three armies and marched towards the Turks. His resolute eyes were particularly sharp, and the sun shone on the golden armor he had not taken off for three days, shining brightly and shining brightly.

Li Jing did not choose to march at night, he did not shy away from the Turkic spies, and even showed off his might with great fanfare.

There are so many Tang troops in the mountains and plains, among them there are [-] Xuanjia iron cavalry, whether they are soldiers or horses, all put on heavy armor, the army is mighty, if they charge to fight, they will definitely be a meat grinder on the battlefield.

In fact, not only the Chinese army led by Li Jing, but also the governor of the state, British Duke Xu Shiji, was the commander in chief of the Tongmo Road. He led the army from the east to directly attack the hinterland of the Eastern Turks. go ahead.

Li Daozong, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, Rencheng County King Li Daozong was the general manager of the Datong Road marching from Lingzhou to the northwest. The head of the Martial Arts Marching took the northeast to attack the Turkic rear to monitor the Tuli Khan.

The 20 troops were divided into six groups, and their swords pointed at the Turks, all of whom were under the control of Li Jing.

Datang, the dragon who had been silent for 15 years, finally opened his eyes for the first time, revealing his sharp fangs.

All nations were shocked.

They thought that the Turks were the most powerful country in the world, and Datang's declaration of war was undoubtedly a joke. It won't be long before Datang will be defeated.

However, looking back suddenly, I found that Datang is no longer the Datang of that year.

This country has raised 20 elite soldiers and warriors, and they are definitely not indiscriminate. The military prestige is like a scorching sun, shining in all directions, making it difficult for people to look directly at it.

Coupled with the existence of Li Daoxuan, the national teacher who is the unparalleled in the world, who can kill gods in the world, the overall strength of the Tang Dynasty has surpassed all other countries, and only the Turks can compete with it.

Everyone knows that this battle between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks will determine who is the most powerful country in the world.

All eyes.

……

Mobei, thousands of miles of yellow sand.

A slender figure slowly emerged from the yellow sand, wearing a black and white robe, with an ordinary blue belt tied around his waist, but the slender waist was well-modified.

She held a black scabbard sword in her hand, and her long black hair was tied into a high ponytail. She was chic, capable, and heroic.

The weirdest thing was that, as the strong wind passed by, the yellow sand was flying, and her strong robe fluttered in the wind, revealing her beautiful figure and slender straight legs, but the yellow sand in the wind could not come within three feet of her.

There seemed to be an invisible sword energy that chopped the gravel into pieces.

The climate was dry, and the woman wrapped her face in a black cloth, only revealing her pair of heroic eyes, which were as clear as a sword and as clear as a rainbow.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, she suddenly stopped.

The woman's eyes became dark and deep, mixed with a trace of clear sword light, looking towards the southeast.

"The spirit of killing is soaring into the sky. This means that there is a large army lined up, and the battle is about to start. Has Datang been caught in the flames of war again these years after I left?"

Without hesitation, she turned around and walked in that direction, walking slowly, but there was no footprint in the soft yellow sand.

"drive!"

Ground shaking.

Dozens of Turkic cavalry in the distance were chasing three people. One of them looked like a white-faced scholar with a folding fan in his hand, one was tall and thick with a thick beard and hair, and the other was a monk.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The Turkic soldiers were good at riding and shooting, and they shot several arrows at the three of them with extremely high accuracy.

But those three people were all very skilled in martial arts, like eyes in the back of their heads, they dodged one by one during the run, although they were a bit embarrassed, they managed to save their lives.

It's just that two legs can't run with four legs after all, and the white-clothed scholar at the back was overtaken by the Turkic cavalry. He rolled on the ground to dodge, but was still cut on the shoulder by a knife.

Seeing that he was about to die in Huangquan, he suddenly heard a sword cry.

Such as Kunshan jade broken, the phoenix sings!

The yellow sand all over the sky seemed to be still, the sky and the earth were submerged by the invisible sword energy, and even the sunlight was dimmed, leaving only the soul-stirring sword light.

Pfft!Pfft!
Those Turkic cavalry who were still invincible just now fell down one after another, their armor made of fine iron was all chopped into pieces, their pupils were wide open, as if they were still immersed in the stunning sword light.

One sword breaks armor 86!

Under the shocked eyes of the young man in white, a graceful and slender figure slowly walked out of the yellow sand, his figure was tall and straight, and his heroic aura was overwhelming, especially those eyes that seemed to hide the light of swords. Indescribable charm.

The woman took off the silk covering her face, revealing a three-point heroic, seven-point handsome face.

With eyebrows sculpted like swords and eyes staring like stars, he was looking down at the white-clothed scholar lying on the ground, with a clear and moving voice.

"Poverty Taiwei, are you from Tang Dynasty?"
