Chapter 280 Take the False Line

At noon the next day, the boat arrived at Hannan, another big city before Jingling, and the pier was full of boats, but there were only boats turning back, but no boats heading in the direction of Jingling.

The boatman went to inquire about the news, but there were different opinions.

Some people said that there were bandits blocking the river to rob ships, some said that Jingling City was destroyed by the Jianghuai army, and even that there were water ghosts digging boats in the river. In short, people were panicked and no one dared to drive forward.

Of course, this boatman is no exception, no matter how much Xu Yang and others try to lure him, he will never take this risk.

The purpose of Li Yue's coming here is of course to accept another military master of this era, this person is called Xu Xingzhi.

Li Yue suddenly stood up unexpectedly, held up the gold, and shouted: "Who can tell me what happened to Jingling, this ingot of gold belongs to him."

His voice spoke out vigorously, and immediately suppressed all the noises that were as loud as a market.

Everyone looked at him, and when they saw the yellow gold he was holding up in the air, [-]% of them shouted "Know" and stood up abruptly, creating a commotion.

"Zheng!"

However, Li Yue used the invisible sword energy, pointed at the table, and there was a neat hole the size of a thumb on the table.

After these few words, everyone sat back immediately, and stopped humming. At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar stood up spontaneously, speaking in a calm and composed manner.

Li Yue shouted: "You continue to eat, I don't like being watched by others!"

All the guests were silent, and buried their heads at the dinner table, and the voices of talking and laughing were greatly reduced.

Li Yue pointed at the middle-aged Confucian scholar and said, "Come here!"

A middle-aged Confucian scholar came to the stage, and the waiter hurriedly set up an extra chair for him.

After the buddy stepped back, Li Yue put the gold in front of the Confucian scholar, and said with a faint smile, "Let's hear what qualifications you have to earn this gold."

The Confucian scholar smiled and said, "I'm a person from Jingling, who used to work as a clerk under Fang Daoyuan, the right vanguard of the Domination Villa. I just came here by boat this morning. May I ask Lord Kou, is this qualification acceptable?"

This man spoke gracefully and calmly, neither humble nor overbearing, the three of them couldn't help but look at him again.

Xu Xingzhi is about thirty years old, his eyes are hidden, he is obviously proficient in martial arts, and has a considerable foundation, his eyes are straight and his nose is straight, and he has five long beards, which match his delicate features. Quite a bit of fairy style.

Xu Xingzhi looked up at Li Yue, and said spontaneously: "The most important thing in using troops is military intelligence. Can this master add an extra ingot of gold?"

"If what you say is not worth two ingots of gold, I will cut off one of your ears."

Xu Xingzhi laughed, took the two ingots of gold into his arms, and said without fear: "Everyone, don't worry, I will definitely earn these two ingots of gold."

"Say it soon!"

Xu Xingzhi still took his time, and said slowly: "Jingling is now facing external troubles and internal troubles. Outside, there are heavy troops from the Jianghuai Army outside the city, cutting off the water and land traffic; inside, there are alluring witches, causing brothers to fight against each other and kill each other."

"Is that demon girl called Wan Wan?"

This time it was Xu Xingzhi's turn to be surprised: "How does this man know about this girl?"

Li Yue was thinking: "This Yingui faction is going to come out to make trouble again!"

"Since she pretended not to wake up, I have reminded Master Fang that this girl's background is strange and unreasonable, but Master Fang ignored my words and was only obsessed with her beauty."

"Didn't Fang Daoyuan know that Houhou belongs to the owner of Fang Zhuang?"

Xu Xingzhi sighed: "This is why I want to remind Lord Fang. No one knows what happened between the demon girl and Lord Fang, but Master Fang was killed by Fang Zetao in the end. Fortunately, I know that disaster is inevitable. Only when you are prepared can you escape Jingling alone in time. Now that Fang Zetao has no more generals available, and the morale of the army is shaken. The best strategy now is to return to the pasture immediately, prepare the army for war, and contact all forces at the same time to resist the invasion of the Jianghuai army. "

"For a talent like Mr., when the rebels from all walks of life are employing people, why don't you try your luck around?"

"In the long run, it's best for the Li Clan to rely on the danger in Guanzhong. But I don't like the official style of the high-ranking clan. Don't say anything else."

"Li Yuan's second son, Li Shimin, is talented and generous, and he prefers to make friends with the world's heroes. He appoints people on their own merits. Once he was wiped out, why did he get such a bad review from his husband?"

"If the Li family can be ruled by Li Shimin, unification is expected. The problem is that Li Yuan is cowardly and foolish, and he gave up Li Shimin and made his eldest son Jian Jian the heir apparent. Although Li Jiancheng has high martial arts skills, he is self-willed, suspicious and jealous. Stay in a quiet place and be a bystander watching the excitement!"

Li Yue looked at Xu Xingzhi, and he really had two brushes, but it's a pity that you met me!

So Li Yue easily tied up Xu Xingzhi, after all, Li Yue would not let talent go, this Xu Xingzhi was a top strategist.

Luoyang is located on the south bank of the Yellow River, with Mang Mountain in the north, Luoshui in the south, Hulao in the east, Yinghangu in the west, surrounded by mountains, and the Luoyang Plain in the middle, with the four rivers of Yi, Luo, Lu and Jian running through it. Dangerous, beautiful scenery, fertile soil, moderate climate and convenient water transportation.

Therefore, since ancient times, eight dynasties such as Xia, Shang, Eastern Zhou, Eastern Han, Cao Wei, Western Jin, Northern Wei, and Sui have built their capitals here.

The so-called Heyang Dingding is located in the central plains and responds to the four directions. Luoyang is the transportation hub of the world and a military fortress.

After Yang Guang ascended the throne, he chose another capital site in Luoyang and established a new capital.

The new imperial city is located between Zhou Wangcheng and the old city of Han and Wei Dynasty. It spans the Sushui River in the east, the Luo River in the south, the Jian River in the west, and Mang Mountain in the north. The city is more than [-] miles in circumference.

With Luoyang as the center, Yang Guang dug out a grand canal that reaches Hangzhou in the south, Zhuo County in the north, and runs through the north and the south, connecting the five major water systems of the Haihe, Yellow, Huaihe, Yangtze and Qiantang Rivers. Luoyang has become the world's transportation and commercial hub. central hub.

It was only a little bright on this day, the gates of the city opened, and a large number of business travelers waiting to enter the city for business and farmers rushed into the city in pursuit of the morning market.

Passing Luoyang, Li Yue didn't stay for long, sitting on a hillside, looking at the magnificent temple on a hill far to the south.

"when!"

The melodious sound of the bell spread from the temple on the top of the mountain.

The scale of this temple is so grand.

When I looked at the hillside earlier, I thought there were only a few temples because the temple was hidden in the woods. Now I came to the door, and I realized that the buildings in the temple add up to more than hundreds, just like a small town with only a few buildings. But there are monks who live there.

Li Yue shook his head. This temple was indeed rich, just like everywhere. These people eat people without spitting out their bones. Thinking of Xu Ziling in the future, Li Yue couldn't help but think that he must make it clear to Xu Ziling about the dangers of this temple in the future.

After all, Xu Ziling should have been poisoned by this temple in the end, just like Shi Zhixuan, Buddhism is a thing that harms people, but it only harms people's IQ and spirit!
