Capital Datang

The race around the city is no longer about speed, but about the physical strength and will of each rider. This is the first time for all the riders to participate in this long-distance cycling race. Although many people have trained in advance, it is the first time There will always be some negligence in competitions. For example, many players miscalculated their physical strength. At the beginning of the competition, they only wanted to grab the first seat, but they consumed a lot of physical strength. They waited for a quarter of the race. For a while, many drivers felt too much physical exertion and had to slow down. As a result, the leading driver fell behind.

Li Ke was fully prepared for this competition, so he was not in a hurry at the beginning, and kept a certain speed, so when the players in front slowed down, he slowly rushed to the front, of course , Songtsan Gampo, Li Yun, and Li Yun, who followed closely behind him, also rushed into the leading team.

"Liulang, why don't we find a place where no one is around, and let's do that Tubo man, so as not to be an eyesore behind your third brother!" Cheng Huailiang held the handlebar with one hand, and pointed at Songtsan Gambo in front with a fierce face suggested.Although the meaning in his words seemed to be for Li Yin's sake, in fact, it was mainly because the other party passed him just now, and he felt a bad temper in his heart, so he made such an impossible suggestion.

"Okay, leave this matter to Brother Huailiang, and we brothers will support you in the back!" Although Li Yin didn't want to waste his energy talking, he didn't want to listen to Cheng Huailiang's chattering bombardment in his ears, so he had to Reluctantly replied.

Cheng Huailiang was originally one of the people who miscalculated his physical strength, so he rushed to the first place at the beginning.Now that he has finally suffered the consequences, his physical strength has dropped so badly that he has no choice but to give up the first place to someone else.However, compared to ordinary drivers, he should be regarded as the kind of physical madman, a bit too energetic, so even if the speed dropped a little, he still remained in the first group of drivers.Capital Datang 203

"Me?" Cheng Huailiang was taken aback.Unexpectedly, Li Yin agreed, but he immediately reacted and said with a smile on his face. "Ahem~, it's okay to leave it to me, but I just rode a bit too hard just now. I don't have much strength now, and if I do it alone, something may happen. It's better for everyone to work together."

Li Yin knew that Cheng Huailiang would definitely answer this way because of Cheng Huailiang's cunning, so he couldn't help but give him a blank look. Just as he was about to say something, they happened to have arrived at the Jinguangmen. Sugar cubes and water.

There are more than a dozen supply points lined up in front of the Golden Light Gate, and there is a certain distance between each supply point.When the riders need water or sugar, they can ride the bike to pick up the supplies from the staff at the supply point, and eat while riding on the bike without any delay.

Li Yin took a bottle of water and a few candy cubes on his bike, stuffed the candy cubes into his mouth, chewed them up and swallowed them.He bit off the wooden stopper of the bottle with his mouth, drank a few mouthfuls of salted water, threw the bottle to the side of the road, and then tried his best to catch up with Songtsan Gampo who had already pulled away for a certain distance.

The north side of Chang'an City is quite special, because there are two special places next to the city wall, that is, the West Inner Garden next to the imperial palace.As well as the unbuilt Yong'an Palace next to the West Neiyuan, the name of the Yong'an Palace may not be familiar to everyone. It was originally built by Li Shimin and intended to be a place for Li Yuan to retire. However, Li Yuan passed away before it was completed, so the construction was stopped. It already had a certain scale. On this basis, Li Zhi later expanded Yong'an Palace and renamed it Daming Palace. Everyone must have heard of this name.

Xi Neiyuan and Yong'an Palace occupy a very large area. If the riders take a detour, they may have to ride dozens of miles. In this way, the race time will be too long.For this reason, Li Shimin specially decreed to temporarily open two royal gardens and palaces to the contestants, allowing them to pass through.

When Li Yin rode his bicycle into the West Inner Garden, there was a prestigious place on his right. Longevity, but whenever people mention this place, what everyone thinks of is blood, killing, and the cruelty and ruthlessness of the royal family.The only thing that can make people have such complicated associations is the extremely heavy Xuanwu Gate.

As the north gate of the imperial city, the key to directly connecting with the outside of the city, this gate named Xuanwu was built extremely tall and majestic, even comparable to the Mingde Gate at the main gate of Chang'an. Because of the safety of the imperial city, heavy troops have been stationed all the time. When Li Min and the others rode their carts past the city gate, they saw rows of soldiers standing with their guns raised, staring at the passing riders with full vigilance. If they dare to make any changes, they will immediately attract a merciless counterattack.

Fortunately, these riders had been told before the race that they would enter the West Inner Court and Yong’an Palace, and they also knew that there would be sergeants guarding them, so although they were unavoidably nervous when they saw these soldiers, most of them passed smoothly. I was so frightened that I fell down, but no matter how painful it was, I immediately got up and rode on the bike and left without daring to stay at all.

Eighty miles is not a small number. After two hours of the game, the first echelon of Li Ke and others has just passed Yanxing Gate, and there are still fifteen or sixteen miles left. Some of the riders were exhausted and were pedaling the bikes only by their own willpower.

Li Yin is no exception. Now he only feels that his two legs have lost consciousness, and they are attached to him like two pieces of wood. His muscles are sore and swollen. At the same time, his chest is also violently heaving. Breathing was like sandpaper grinding his throat, and the pain was itchy from the bottom of his heart, making Li Yin wish he could lie down and rest for a while now.

Compared with Li Yin's embarrassment, the situation of Li Ke and Songtsan Gampo in front is much better. Even Li Yun, who is following Li Yin, is just sweating profusely and breathing faster. It seems that he has not reached his limit. , but this is no wonder, after all, Li Yin has just recovered from a serious illness, and his physical strength has not yet returned to the best condition. It is not easy to ride so far.

After turning around the Qujiang Pond in the southeast corner of Chang'an City, they finally arrived at the south side of Chang'an City, which is the side they started from. However, it is still more than four miles away from Mingde Gate. It's not too close, and looking at the state of Songtsan Gampo and Li Ke, they are almost on par, making it difficult to guess who will cross the finish line first.

Seeing this situation, Li Yin was exhausted and worried, if Songtsan Gampo was allowed to cross the finish line first, it would be a waste of time to prevent Tubo from getting married. If Tubo is allowed to get a chance to recuperate through marriage, there will be endless troubles!

Thinking of this, Li Yin couldn't help but think a little bit crookedly, but he also thought that Li Shimin had said at the beginning that he couldn't do things behind his back, otherwise the original promise would not count. Hands and feet are not noticed.

Just when Li Yin was thinking hard, Li Yun who was next to him seemed to see his expression, he hesitated for a while, and finally the expression on his face was fixed, and he didn't say hello to Li Yin, so he tried his best to speed up a little. The speed quickly rushed to the front of Songtsan Gampo.For Li Yun's sudden outburst, not only was Songtsen Gampo stunned by Chao, but even Li Yun didn't know why his cowardly seventh brother was crazy?

But soon he understood, because after Li Yun rushed in front of Songtsan Gampo, he suddenly decelerated slowly, and the car happened to be in front of Songtsan Gampo. As a result, Songtsan Gampo Dry cloth has only two choices, either slow down along with it, or speed up and go around.

It is definitely not possible to slow down, after all, it is not far from the finish line, and he has to maintain the distance between Li Ke and Li Ke, so he has to speed up and pass Li Yun.But unexpectedly, Li Yun increased his strength, so Ji Zhongshi blocked in front of him.Seeing this, Li Yin's eyes lit up, and he finally understood what Li Yun's idea was. It turned out that he was using himself as cannon fodder on the battlefield, in order to disrupt the frequency of Songtsan Gampo's games, and then consume The opponent's strength.

Speaking of which, this method is really detrimental. Originally, Songtsan Gampo and Li Ke were on the same level, and even if there was a gap, it might not be very obvious.However, Li Yun's "disturbance" consumed some of Songtsan Gampo's strength. In this way, he naturally distanced himself from Li Ke.Capital Datang 203

Thinking of this, Li Yin was also shocked, concentrated all the remaining strength in his body on his legs, and joined the team that made trouble with Songtsan Gampo, although this also exhausted Li Yin and Li Yun's strength It's huge, but even if it costs two to one, they are willing. Anyway, they don't have much strength, and they can't sprint when they see the finish line. It's not as valuable as cannon fodder now.

Songtsan Gampo didn't expect Li Yin and his brothers to be so shameless, they came up with such a way to consume their own strength, and faced with such a shameless act, he had no way to break it, so he had to play with them to consume. Let's see who consumes whose strength first?

For the actions of the two brothers Li Yin and Li Yun, the players in other competitions also saw their eyes, such as Qin Huaiyu, Li Jingye and others, they were all secretly laughing, but they are really buddies. The other speeded up, and then used the car and body to block the two brothers Li Yin as much as possible, so as not to be seen.

Li Yun was the first to have no strength and had to stop the car on the side of the road to rest. Li Yun persisted for another mile, but couldn't hold on any longer, and also stopped. Songtsan Gampo was finally free, but unfortunately his strength was consumed a lot, and the distance between him and Li Ke had already opened up by nearly half a mile.

When Li Ke began to sprint unreservedly when he was two or three hundred meters away from Mingde Gate, Songtsan Gampo was already panting from exhaustion, and even his legs were trembling.Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible to have the strength to sprint, so I can only watch Li Ke and other players cross the finish line!

When Li Yin, who was resting on the road, got the news, he jumped up excitedly, waved his fists and shouted at the sky: "With Laozi here, I, Tang Dynasty, will never get married from now on!". . )
