[Comprehensive martial arts] The Central Plains is too scary

As the shopkeeper said, most of those who died in the battle of Tongguan were soldiers from Chang'an City, and most of the surrounding counties were old, weak, sick and disabled. Lin Cuishan, who guessed what his senior brother wanted to do, frowned.

"Aren't these...too unbearable to use?" Lin Cuishan whispered after walking into the temporary living room, watching Lu Tage assign tasks to his disciples, and waiting for the crowd to disperse.

Lu Tage's initial mission was simple, just to let the people belonging to Hongshui Banner go to nearby villages and counties to preach.The first purpose is to expand the statement and strength, and the second is to use this to test the personal abilities of the disciples under the banner.It was right to do so originally, but compared with his purpose, it was still too simple.

"Unusable? You mean the old and the weak, women and children?" Lu Tage raised his head and asked while sorting out the information.

Lin Cuishan hummed, and sat sideways at the corner of the desk, saying, "Children can still be brought back to the main altar, those old and weak, even if they practice martial arts, it's too late."

And there are no young adults in the family, joining the Mingjiao will only increase the burden.

Lu Tage listened carefully to Lin Cuishan's thoughts, and then laughed.

"What does a person care about the most?" He supported his head and asked his junior brother.

Lin Cuishan thought for a while and said, "My family? Myself?"

"As long as there are some responsible men, they will care more about their parents, wives and children," Lu Tage said. "Those who don't care are not the ones we need. Parents and wives can be abandoned. Such people will only ruin the reputation of my religion."

"But there are no young adults in these old, weak, women and children's homes. It is a waste of food and grass to attract them to be believers," Lin Cuishan said. "It's not that I don't have a heart of compassion, but now is not the time to help the world!"

Lu Tage looked at him with a smile in his eyes, and slowly said, "But their family is young and strong, and they were all believers in Ming Cult."

Lin Cuishan didn't react for a while, and stared at Lu Tage blankly.

The white-haired man poured a glass of water, bowed his head and took a small sip, a fox-like sly look flashed in his usually fierce blue eyes, "Otherwise, why would we come to help and take care of them?"

Regardless of whether they are Mingjiao disciples or not, they are dead. For the sake of taking care of their children, even if they are called a Mingjiao believer after death, they will surely forgive them.

People in the Central Plains value small families the most. Others see that as long as they are Mingjiao believers, even if they die in battle, their family members will be taken care of and protected by Mingjiao.

"It's just..." Lin Cuishan, who understood Lu Tage's meaning, fell into a tangle after pondering, "We don't bring much food and money?"

"The common people feel that Chang'an can't be guarded anymore. Will His Majesty, who has been stable all his life, really go to seek death in person?" Lu Tage rummaged through the pile of information for a while, and found out the paper map, "I guess the palace is like this, today Tonight you and I will go in and have a look to see if the emperor has escaped."

The drawings were drawn by him recalling the world of Ye Gucheng and the Great Song Palace. After drawing, he found that there were many similarities in the layout of the two palaces, so he guessed that the Great Tang Palace should be similar.

Lin Cuishan "..."

Hong Hongqi's second disciple stared blankly at Lu Tage, and finally went out dizzy to prepare for the evening trip to the palace.

The village they lived in was the largest village near Chang'an. Even though there were no young adults, old women, women and children were still walking around.A few days ago, the news of the fall of Tongguan came. Almost every household in the village was plain, and everyone looked sad.

The place where Lin Cuishan lived temporarily was not far from Lu Tage, that is, a hundred steps away. Along the way, he met seven or eight villagers, some saluted him, and some bent over to kowtow.Seeing the nearly seventy-year-old gray-haired old lady trembling and about to kneel, Lin Cuishan was so startled that she quickly and carefully helped her up, thinking of her senior brother's words, and solemnly recited the Da Guang Lu.

Unexpectedly, this casual recitation would be regarded as an imperial decree by the other party, repeating Lin Cuishan's words back and forth and asking if the recitation was correct.The old man has a bad memory, and Lin Cuishan taught him for half an hour before coaxing her to walk home while muttering about Da Guang Lu.

All the disciples in this village could think of to help the villagers were to go door-to-door to distribute some rice noodles to help build the mourning hall. They said that at first they planned to give out porridge according to the book, but they were sent by Lu Tage to cut wood all afternoon before they figured it out. Now is not the time of disaster, so we have to honestly split the wood into firewood and send it to the villagers for cooking.

Seeing their stupidity, Lin Cuishan felt much better from being overwhelmed by Lu Tage's astonishing goal.

In short, the eldest brother should have already planned it, he just needs to follow it.

After Lin Cuishan left, Lu Tage summoned the bald eagle to send a message, and finally contacted Lieyanzhuang before nightfall.

Lieyan Village and Surging Wave Village were managed by some disciples who stayed behind when Mingjiao withdrew from Daguangming Temple in preparation for returning to the Central Plains.When Lu Tage left the main altar, he didn't dare to tell the leader about his plan. To avoid suspicion, he only wanted information about the vicinity of Yangzhou. He was not sure about the location of the two villages. Now he contacted him to let the trip to the palace be moved out tonight. Gold and silver treasures have a place to go.

It has been operating there for more than ten years, and there must be a way to transfer things and buy food and grass.

The letter from Lie Yan Zhuang arrived first, but Surging Wave Zhuang was brought by a little girl dressed as a disciple of the Ming Cult. The little girl hesitated for a while when she saw Lu Tage, and then asked warmly, "Mr. Lu?"

"Hongshuiqi, Lu Tage" confirmed his identity, the white-haired man took the letter and opened it to glance at it, feeling a little relieved.

The general meaning of the letter is that Mountain Dew Village has been operating here for more than ten years, and Lu Tage can provide everything he needs.He also expressed the hope that the owner's daughter, Gu Bihu, would go to the palace with Lu Tage and Lin Cuishan, and asked Lu Tage to take care of her.

It is said to be hope, but in fact it is similar to exchange.Lu Tage knew that the other party had also heard about the fall of Tongguan, and wanted to take the opportunity to find out what was going on in the palace and decide whether to leave quickly, so he rolled up the letter and put it away, looked at the little girl and said, "How is your Burning Shadow Sacred Art?"

It is said that it is the Holy Art of Burning Shadow, but the main thing is that the dark dust is scattered. Lu Tage knows Lin Cuishan's level from the bottom up, but he can't guarantee that this little girl can last until she sneaks into the palace.

"When Bihu was young, there was a big change in his family. Since then, he has never dared to practice one day. If it is said that the dark dust is scattered, it is a good skill." The little girl replied honestly, looking at Lu Tage with her eyes for a long time, In the end, he couldn't hold back and asked, "This time the disciples of the Ming Cult went south to the Central Plains, but Mr. Lu led them?"

She bit the word "Lu" deliberately when she spoke, and the implied meaning was clear. Lu Tage shook his head and said, "The leader and his wife only have one daughter, and now I teach the saint. I am just an ordinary disciple under Hongshui's flag, and the teacher and the leader Not related."

Today's Mingjiao in the Central Plains seems to have gradually moved closer to the Central Plains people in addition to martial arts, customs, dress and way of thinking.Lu Tage glanced at the silent Gubi Lake, blew out the candles, ordered two disciples belonging to the Flood Banner to guard the house, and raised his neck to Lin Cuishan who was waiting outside.

"Let's go."

Seeing Lu Tage come out, Lin Cuishan pulled up his hood and held the scimitar behind his back in his hand.The three nodded to each other, headed by Lu Tage, under the cover of the moonlight, they went straight to the palace with light work.

There must be many masters in Chang'an City, and the Mingjiao eagle is too conspicuous, Lu Tage had no choice but to give up the fastest way and led the two of them to fly over the walls with only gold chains, but they still rushed to the palace wall before a few hours.

Gu Bihu's kung fu is just like what she said, it's really good, although it's not outstanding, it's not too bad.After rushing to the base of the city, Lu Tage took out the map of the palace that he drew earlier, roughly judged his position, and then frowned deeply.

Their current position is a bit too far back. To put it simply, if there is no accident, they climb over the wall and walk a certain distance, which is where the emperor's concubines and princesses live.

Lu Tage was silent for a while, then bent his elbow and touched his younger brother, who had read a lot of scripts, "Are there many treasures in the emperor's harem?"

Lin Cuishan also thought about this question seriously for a while, and then asked Lu Tage, "If you have something good, do you give it to me or Master?"

"Of course it's for Master." Lu Tage said, after he finished speaking, he understood the meaning of Lin Cuishan's words, looked at Gu Bihu who didn't understand what they were playing, and said, "Let's go."

"...Brothers are like clothes" Lin Cuishan muttered, followed Lu Tage and rolled in.

Gu Bihu:? ? ?

After climbing into the high wall, it is a completely different world.

Lu Tage and Lin Cuishan thought they could see the extravagant scene of jade, gold, and pearls, but the scene in front of them made them stunned by coincidence.

Chaos, chaos.

The flowers are on the ground, and the dust is stained with every step. Gorgeous robes and cloths can be seen everywhere, and some official kilns have been smashed, and white porcelain pieces are scattered all over the floor.

At first glance, the three of them thought that some kind of army had mutinied and broke into the palace, but seeing the maid and guard running around, they didn't feel like... Wait, guard?

Lin Cuishan, who had read in the storybook that the guards could not enter the harem at all, touched Lu Tage and asked his senior brother to follow him. The young man used the dark dust to hide his figure, and quietly approached the palace rooms with carved beams and painted buildings.

"Princess, there are too many things, I really can't fit them." After approaching a room, Lin Cuishan leaned against the wall and listened, and the servant's helpless voice and the little girl's scolding came from inside.

"No, this is given to me by my mother and concubine, and I have to take away what my father rewarded me... This one was given by my brother, take it too!"

Lin Cuishan looked at Lu Tage who also heard the conversation, and said in a low voice, "They are packing up."

Well in the palace, why pack up?The two brothers looked at each other, Lu Tage touched Gu Bihu, and said via voice transmission, "You should go back to the village and Shockwave Village to call Mingjiao disciples, the more you call, the better."

Gu Bihu vaguely guessed something, bit her lip to stop the exclamation that almost blurted out, nodded and slipped back, climbing over the high wall.

"Brother, what shall we do next?" Asking Gu Bihu to call for someone, Lin Cuishan looked at the harem and said, "Go shopping first? Step on the spot and decide how to move when someone arrives?"

Lu Tage shook his head and rejected Lin Cuishan's idea of ​​falling into Qian's eyes, pointed to the most majestic and tall palace in the distance and said, "Go ahead and have a look"

"They haven't withdrawn yet." Lin Cuishan hesitated, "Isn't it too dangerous to go through like this?"

"It's because they didn't retreat that they want to find out what these people want to do." Lu Tage showed his figure, took a deep breath and made up for the dark dust to disperse, and cautiously groped along the base of the wall to that side.

Lin Cuishan licked some dry lips, learned to adjust, and quickly followed Lu Tage and said, "Find out what they want to do? Isn't it about to run away?"

Lu Tage resisted the urge to sigh, and replied, "Look at the soldiers and horses."

Since Li Tang's royal family wanted to escape, it was impossible not to bring soldiers and horses to protect them. What Lu Tage wanted to know was how many forbidden troops Li Tang still had, whether the forbidden troops were elite, and whether they could withstand Anlu Mountain.

To put it bluntly, it is to confirm whether Li Tang is worth helping, whether they should run away after earning this wave, or continue to do it according to the previous plan.

Lin Cuishan gave a half-comprehension sound, and asked, "Then what should I do next? Isn't it enough for you alone, Senior Brother?"

Lu Tage glanced at him, "The palace is too big, I'm afraid you might get lost."

Lin Cuishan: ....

Lin Cuishan, who wanted to refute that he couldn't get lost in the desert, looked at the surrounding pavilions, but found that he really didn't know the way back, so he had to shut up and obediently follow behind his senior brother.

The imperial palace at night was surprisingly chaotic and noisy, with footsteps and yelling, the soft sound of broken porcelain and the sound of wooden boxes being built all the way could be heard all the way, the noise was so loud that Lu Tage even thought he could walk without using the dark dust to disperse In the past, there was no illusion that anyone was in charge.

The flames in front lit up a square, as well as the majestic palace and the white marble steps. Lu Tage raised his hand to signal Lin Cuishan to stop, leaned against the wall, and cautiously peeked around the corner.

There are a lot of soldiers on the field, with different expressions on their faces, but they are all listening to the command of a man dressed as a general.

There are about 1 people, with bright armor and sharp weapons, but most of them are too young to look like they have fought in war.Lu Tage wrote down the information, and heard what the general said, "Left and right Longwu, left and right martial arts", but he lacked a magic trick, so he knew that this was the newly reorganized Sixth Army.

After all, Shence has rebelled.

After reorganizing the army, the general rewarded them with a lot of money. This group of soldiers didn't know the chaos of throwing throws in the harem.

After a while, a voice replaced the general's order just now.This person had obviously never practiced martial arts, and his voice was a little unstable and weak, but the square was surprisingly quiet, so even in Lu Tage's remote location, he could faintly hear what the other person said.

Lin Cuishan squatted behind and poked Lu Tage, and asked, "How is it?"

Lu Tage retracted and gestured for Lin Cuishan to go further away.The two of them carefully walked back to the harem, and then relaxed a little.

"How is it?" Lin Cuishan hurriedly asked Lu Tage.

"A competent minister, but an ignorant lord." Lu Tage thought for a while, and said carefully, "The general is quite powerful, and the one who spoke later was the emperor... I'm really too weak."

If Li Tang's emperor is such a character, then it is better to run away or switch to Anlu Mountain in this battle. At least for now, Anlu Mountain has a much greater chance of winning than Li Tang.

"The plan remains the same for the time being, but let's wait and see for a while," Lu Tage said, looking at Lin Cuishan who obviously didn't listen to him seriously "...tonight's task is to search here, be careful not to be bumped by people who haven't left, go Bar."
