Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 17

"In this way, we should thank Hero Tang Fangzhuo!" The caravan guard couldn't help asking: "It's just...he hasn't been seen for decades, why did he suddenly appear here now?"

"These martial arts people have been flying around, and we ordinary people can't figure it out." The businessman looked at Xue Chang, who was listening carefully, and said softly: "Maybe he is homesick. .”

At this time, a loud roar suddenly sounded: "The rain has stopped, why are you still blocking the door! Come in if you want tea, and leave quickly if you don't drink tea, don't interfere with my business! Go! Go!"

After the owner finished yelling, the guy came out to chase people away.

Amidst the complaints, the pedestrians left the tea shop one after another.

Stepping on the muddy ground, Xue Chang chased after him: "This old man... old man, can I consult... I can ask you something?"

Looking back, the old man saw that it was the young beggar who had spoken out in the official way and had fought with the chivalrous man before, and he hurriedly replied with a smile: "This young man, don't dare to ask for advice. As long as I know, I will definitely answer."

"Thank you, thank you!" Xue Chang arched his hands and asked, "Can you tell me something about Ye Wenbo and Iron Blood Changhe Gate in detail?"

The old man stroked his beard and hesitated: "Young man, don't look at my age, but I have never been out of northern Sichuan since I was a child, and I don't know much about the outside world. Why didn't you ask the businessman just now? No Did he say, he traveled all over the world, and even went to Luoyang, so he knows a lot more than me."

"The businessman is going north with the caravan, and he has been busy urging the caravan. I don't want to disturb him, so I came to ask you for advice." Xue Chang said with some embarrassment: "If your old man finds it troublesome, then it's fine." gone."

The old man stroked his beard, looked at Xue Chang's serious face, and then said: "I don't know much about General Ye and Iron Blood Changhe Gate, and many of them are just hearsay, not necessarily true. But if the young man is willing to listen, then I will talk about it?"

"Thank you, old man!" Xue Chang was very happy, and asked Xu Xi to help the old man carry the package.

If it was in the past, how could the old man let a little beggar touch his things, but after hearing Xue Chang say that the child was his apprentice, he thought that the pair of master and apprentice were playing tricks by pretending to be beggars, so they not only handed the package to Xu Xi, I am also very honored.

"Young man, what's your name?"

"Look at my stupidity, I forgot to ask the old man your last name, it's really rude! My name is Xue Chang, may I ask the old man, is your name—"

"Gu Yuehu, you can call me old man Hu. Shaoxia Xue, I think your age should not exceed twenty years old, right?"

"19 is old."

"You are so young, you don't know that the matter between General Ye and the Iron Blood Changhe Gate is normal. After all, 30 years have passed." Speaking of this, Old Man Hu lowered his voice: "And after the Iron Blood Changhe Gate was disbanded, a few years later , The imperial court has also issued many documents prohibiting people from all over the world from publicly talking about the iron-blooded Changhemen. "If the new emperor hadn't ascended the throne four years ago and relaxed the control on this aspect, how could we have dared to talk about this at the tea shop just now."

"Oh!……"

"I heard that General Ye was born in a scholarly family on the northern border. It is said that he won the first place in the provincial high school examination and became a juren before he was 15 years old. However, at that time, the barbarians on the grassland were already very powerful. In the north, the former dynasty was unable to repel them at all, and the people near the border had to learn martial arts to protect themselves. General Ye's father also felt that the world was bad, so he asked him to abandon literature and martial arts.

To say that General Ye is really wise and intelligent, not only is he good at literature, he is also good at martial arts. It is said that after practicing martial arts for a few years, he will not be able to find an opponent in the local area... Later, the northern barbarians invaded and wiped out the former dynasty. Ye The general fled south with his family until he reached Jinghu Lake. It is said that he gathered a group of heroes to help defend Xiangyang. Later, Xiangyang was captured, and he fled to the north bank of the Yangtze River. He brought some heroes and continued to fight against the barbarians...

Later, the first emperor led his army out of Sichuan, wanting to drive out the barbarians and restore the country of our Han family, but who knew that they were defeated in the first battle.Then they were defeated again and again, and finally retreated to Yiling. The barbarian's pursuers would catch up at any time. The situation was very urgent!Depressed, the first emperor went to the Jiangshen Temple in the city to pray to heaven, but he happened to meet General Ye who was staying in the temple. It was really an arrangement of God!The two hit it off at first sight, and it is said that the late Emperor and General Ye had a chat all night, and then General Ye followed the late Emperor back to Chengdu.

Then, it didn't take long for the states and counties to post official documents everywhere. I vaguely remember the general meaning of the official documents is "...the northern barbarians invaded, the rivers and mountains were broken, and the people of the Han family were slaughtered... At this time of crisis, martial arts people should not turn a blind eye and stand up. And to save the country and the people, Fang lived up to his hard-working martial arts, became a hero of the Han people, and shined through future generations..." In short, it is to call on the heroes of Bashu to actively join a special army composed of martial arts masters—"

"Iron Blood River Gate?"

"At that time, it wasn't called Iron Blood Changhe Gate."

"All sects in Bashu should have responded positively and signed up enthusiastically, right?"

"No, no, young man, your thinking is too simple. Those martial arts heroes have always been high and high, and they are used to freedom. How could they be controlled by the army and have to be trained. And at that time, General Ye was not as big as he was later. We Shu people have hardly heard of his name, so I heard that there were not many martial arts people who signed up at the beginning, only some young people were encouraged and ran to participate, including the general Tang Fangzhuo just now. He is a member of the Tang Sect in Central Shu."

"Oh, Tang Sect, it's no wonder Tang Daxia's hidden weapons are so good." Xue Chang understood, according to the memory of the original owner, Tang Sect is one of the three sects in the Bashu area, known for being good at using hidden weapons.

"...I heard that General Ye combined these young people who signed up with the heroes of the Central Plains martial arts who followed him into Sichuan. There are hundreds of them, and they train every day...It didn't take long before we heard the news 'Manzi Leading an army of 10,000+, divided into two groups, to attack Sichuan'. Although the barbarians have invaded the Central Plains for several years, the flames of war have not reached our Bashu, but we Bashu people have heard some barbaric acts of killing and cannibalism by the barbarians , everyone panicked...

The first emperor carried out emergency military mobilization throughout Bashu. I was not yet 30 years old at the time, and I was also organized as a reserve soldier, ready to support Jiange at any time.General Ye led his martial arts heroes to Gongzhou (that is, Chongqing) first, because although the barbarian army attacking from the north is the main force, the barbarian army attacking from the east may use waterways to enter Bashu first..."

As Mr. Hu was talking, his face twitched slightly, his tone gradually became heavy, and pain began to appear in his eyes. Obviously, it was a past event he could not bear to look back on: "...Where is that Jiange, where one man guards the gate, ten thousand husbands Mokai’s world’s mightiest pass! But after the barbarian army arrived, they launched a strong attack every day regardless of the geographical disadvantage. I heard that the battle was very fierce. Every day, many wounded soldiers were transported from Jiange to Mianzhou for treatment. Jiange replenishes reserve soldiers...

The army I was in was originally going to the Jiange, but was transferred to Langzhou later. Later, General Zhang, who was in charge of us, said that this was the idea of ​​the late emperor. He felt that the troops in northern Sichuan were concentrated in the Jiange to defend against the barbarians. The defense in the state direction is too weak, it is always not safe...

At that time, I was a little happy because I didn't have to go to the Jiange to fight those terrible barbarians.Who knew that two months later, those bald, braided, thick, fur-wrapped barbarians, who were as terrifying as beasts, came out of the mountains and appeared at the foot of Langzhou City!
