Yangping Pass guard Li Yu received the order from Ma Zhengzhang from the capital and guarded the pass tightly, not allowing the defeated Tang Dynasty troops to pass. Naturally, he followed the emperor's order and raised the suspension bridge early.

This Li Yu is the direct grandson of Li Jing, the founder of the Tang Dynasty and the protector of the country. He is very strategic and has good martial arts skills, but he is far inferior to Naizu. He was also the number one martial arts champion before the Tang Dynasty. He has two talented generals under his command. One is Wenbo, who wields a machete, and the other is Dugu Can, who wields two hammers. Li Yu has only 8,000 soldiers, and many of them are old and weak. When he heard that the Tang Dynasty actually had 30,000 "defeated soldiers" At that time, he was too determined to fight.

Moreover, Li Yu had long heard of the reputation of the Tang Dynasty, so once he received the order from Ma Zhengzhang, he quickly packed up his defenses, thickened the city walls, and placed more wood and cannon stones on the passes to prevent the Tang Dynasty from attacking the city.

After Ma Zhengzhang conveyed the order, his Shence Army immediately returned to Chang'an and reported to Li Longji.

Although the Tang Dynasty was eager to advance troops, considering the danger of Yangping Pass, they did not dare to attack easily. Therefore, they listened to the advice of their sworn brother Tang Chao and did not openly rebel. Instead, they waited for the opportunity and stationed at Yangping Pass for three days.

At this time, the rear army came to report that the army led by Sheva was only thirty miles away from Yangping Pass.

It was evening at that time, and the sun was setting in the west. As usual, Yangping Pass opened its doors an hour before sunset, allowing the city's residents to go out to carry water and firewood.

At this time, the Tang Dynasty had already secretly ordered his five tigers of the Zhu clan to get in among the people carrying water and firewood and enter in disguise.

Originally, the Tang Dynasty did not allow Li Bai to go, but as he was new to the army, he insisted on going there to perform meritorious deeds. The Tang Dynasty tried to dissuade him over and over again, so he had no choice but to give up and just tell him to be careful.

Zhuan Xin was the leader of the Five Tigers of the Zhu clan. He disguised himself as a woodcutter and mingled with the crowd. No one knew that there were weapons hidden in their loads of wood.

These people are not famous people to begin with, so they are not afraid of being discovered.

But Li Bai was different. If he were to dress up as a woodcutter, he would probably be exposed. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty only asked him to put on civilian clothes and sneak in with the people entering the city.

Those who can get in are the best, but if you can't get in, there won't be any danger.

Fortunately, Li Bai's martial arts had reached the state of transformation, and he could change the excretion of his skin at will. Under the operation of his skills, he actually looked like a skinny old man. Seeing that he was too old to walk, the soldiers guarding the city felt relieved to let him enter the city.

But as soon as Li Bai entered the city, he also made a small mistake.

He went to drink.

In his life, he drank almost every day, so when dusk just fell, he went into a shop called "Jiao's Old Wine" in the city and threw out a large silver coin, fearing that There were no more than ten liang, so he left it on the counter and told the waiter to serve him as much wine and food as he wanted.

But he didn't know that the owner of this hotel, Jiao Fei, was run by a local bully. He specialized in extorting money from people and even killing people to get money. He was an evildoer. Otherwise, the entire Yangping Pass would be under martial law, and other hotels would have already It was closed, but he dared to open the store in this situation.

Because Li Bai was open-minded by nature, he did not suspect that there was something weird in this restaurant. When the wine was dry, he drank eighteen bowls of old wine. This was when he was able to cure his hangover. Thinking of the Tang Dynasty's instructions, he only dared to drink a few drinks, but he didn't dare. Have fun.

Suddenly, Li Bai felt like the world was spinning, and he was shocked that he actually passed out like this.

It was also Li Bai who supported him. With his martial arts, he has entered the realm of transformation. No poison in the world can harm him. However, this Jiao Fei did not use poison, but used specially made Ecstasy powder mixed with the smell of old wine. Li Bai mistakenly thought it was the smell of old wine, which turned even a martial arts expert like him into confusion.

I think Li Bai drank a lot in his life and never saw any big storms, but to find himself stuck here is indeed a bit unexpected.

As soon as Tang Chao was defeated, Jiao Fei came out of the lobby and kicked Li Bai on the body: "What's your mother's thing? Showing your wealth in front of me, Boss Jiao, isn't it making me impatient to live?"

"Hey," Jiao Fei suddenly shouted, because the skinny old man just now suddenly turned into a middle-aged man with white and greasy skin.

He was originally a murderous thief, but he didn't care about that at the moment. He scraped all the gold and silver from Li Bai's body, took out his sword, and actually killed Li Bai with one blow.

I saw this guy slashing his head with one strike without batting an eye. Maybe for people like him, the more strict the martial law, the more lawless things they can do.

"Click,"

He could never imagine that Li Bai's head was not broken into two parts, but his arms were as rotten as tofu. Li Bai had woken up without knowing when, and he was not even allowed to scream. In an instant, Touched his cheekbones.

The two shop waiters wanted to run away, but Li Bai just pointed out where they could. The two men's legs were so tired that they fell to the ground exhausted and unable to walk.

Jiao Fei was in severe pain, but he still heard Tang Chao's words: "Although these little anesthetics from the Jianghu are much more powerful than Mongolian Khan, how can they do anything to me?"

It turns out that great connoisseurs like Li Bai already knew there was something wrong with the wine as soon as he drank it. But with his current control of his body, even the poison that seals his throat with blood cannot kill him. It's just a drain on his inner strength.

The reason why he didn't take action immediately was because he wanted to see what the store owner wanted to do. He didn't expect that this guy was so vicious. He immediately broke both of his arms and crushed all the bones in his feet, but he didn't Kill him.

Li Bai knew that not killing him would only make him suffer more, because even if Sun Simiao came, he could only save his life, but he could not make him walk like a normal person again, because the muscles and bones of his hands and feet were crushed by Li Bai .

This is also the first time in Li Bai's nearly twenty years of travel that he has taken such a serious action, because this guy really deserves to die.

Li Bai immediately blew out the lights in the shop, tapped the acupuncture points of the two waiters and threw them in the corner. He fell on a chair to rest and murmured: "If I, Li Bai, were so easy to fall into a fight, I would have died dozens of times ago." This time, it will be your turn to kill me, a bastard like you."

Li Bai's heart was filled with infinite hope at this moment. There had never been a moment when he was so full of hope for life and the future. He knew that since the day he was killed by Li Longji, although he was famous, there was no one in the world. , almost no one dares to use him.

He was very unwilling to be used by countries such as Nanzhao or Uighur. Therefore, he had experienced all the hardships of life in the past ten years. Liu Xuande's emotion about the resurrection of his spleen and flesh had never been known before. It lingered in his heart that ambitions are hard to achieve and achievements are not accomplished, but he is getting old. Otherwise, why would he write "People in life are passers-by for generations. The ancients walked at night with candles, and there are good things to do...",,,, ,"

The vicissitudes of the world are revealed more and more in Li Bai. This is a helpless sigh. How many heroes have passed by in the river of time, and they are unknown and cannot make a splash. "Thinking of the long journey of heaven and earth, alone." I shed tears of sadness,"

Li Bai originally thought that he would probably end up in Linquan without any achievements in his life, with endless regrets, but what he didn't expect was that his sworn brother actually gave him a chance to show off his skills.

Of course, he still remembered that when he helped Li Gesang put down the Lang Zhengxuan rebellion, he asked Li Gesang to lend him three thousand troops when necessary. But now, as soon as he saw the Tang Dynasty, he knew that it was not necessary because Even if he uses his unique talents to expand the territory with three thousand soldiers, he will not be able to catch up with the power of his sworn brother. When the time comes, they may still fight each other.

Before meeting the Tang Dynasty, he felt that he was still sure of defeating the Tang Dynasty, but once he met him, especially when he knew that the Tang Dynasty had the most powerful weapon that could shake up the past and the present, he gave up any idea.

He asked himself, maybe I, Li Bai, will never be the emperor of the Central Plains, but how could he treat me badly by helping my sworn brother to build a great country? He had already seen a kind of domineering king from the Tang Dynasty. The demeanor of a leader.

He actually gave up the command of tens of thousands of troops, which shows his frankness and magnanimity.

Those who want to achieve great things must have the courage to fight. It’s fine that this kid is invincible, but what’s rare is that he can tolerate others. This is not easy. I heard that he also has Sheva who has unfathomable martial arts. It turns out that It was the leader of the thieves who betrayed Li Gesang, and the Tang Dynasty was able to tolerate him.

The sea accepts all rivers, and tolerance is great. He is so tolerant, which shows his wisdom.

What's even more clever is that when he made this surprise attack in the camp yesterday, Tang Chao clearly knew what he wanted to say, but he still asked himself to give advice, making it appear that he didn't know. In fact, this kid's wisdom is by no means better than mine. Next, he had already shown his prominence when the rebellion in Sheva was suppressed, but he did not argue with me, and even recorded my achievements, but he was good at guessing my psychology.

When he thought of this, a letter flower suddenly appeared in the sky. Li Bai smiled. The time had come to make a contribution. He drew out the Longquan sword hidden in his sleeve and flew out like a fly.

At this time, the Five Tigers of the Zhuan clan had already sneaked to the city gate, released the letter flowers, and then killed the scattered guards, cut open the city gate, and lowered the suspension bridge. The Tang Dynasty had already led troops to respond outside. When the city gate opened, With a flick of the whip, 30,000 troops rushed into the city.

Li Yu was discussing the strategy of retreating from the enemy in the central military tent. Suddenly he heard loud shouts and bright fires. When he hurried out to see, Tang Chao had already led his army to rush into the city. He saw Tang Chao majestically riding on a horse. The flaming red war horse, with long swords flying in its hands, killed anyone who stood in his way, and galloped towards his central tent, so scared that his face turned pale.
