Four hundred and seventieth chapters entering the customs
Sui Emperor Yang Jian passed away, and Prince Yang Guang succeeded to the throne!
The news came very suddenly, and along with it came all kinds of sensational rumors.
When it was said that the prince Yang Guang was causing trouble in the palace and was caught by the seriously ill Yang Jian, the Sui Emperor was furious and wanted to depose the prince again. After hearing the news, Yang Guang simply refused to do anything and let Yang Jian die early.
As soon as it was said that the former prince Yang Yong had received mercy from Sui Emperor Yang Jian and had great hope of recovery, the prince Yang Guang immediately killed Yang Jian in anger;
Such sensational rumors spread rapidly from Guanzhong to Heluo like a storm.
In short, there was nothing good to say about Prince Yang Guang. According to rumors, the label of patricide was placed on his head, and it was impossible to take it off.
For a moment, the officials and people of Heluo were in an uproar. They took out the white fan and linen cloth that had been prepared long ago, and talked among themselves in private. In short, the situation suddenly became a bit delicate.
However, the Sui Dynasty was very powerful at this time. No matter what the officials and people of Heluo thought, no one dared to take the lead and showed no dissatisfaction with the crown prince's enthronement.
These are just trivial matters and have not even the slightest impact on Prince Yang Guang.
Isn't it just that his face is a bit ugly and his reputation is a bit ugly? The emperor who just came from the Southern and Northern Dynasties didn't care about whether it was good or not.
Envoy Yang Guang, who had just left not long ago, hurried to the temporary military camp of Lei Hu's headquarters, took out Yang Guang's personal letter, and asked Lei Hu to rush to Guanzhong for help.
"Why, Prince, no, should His Majesty be in any trouble now?"
Lei Hu waved his hand. Naturally, the guards around him were gathering their men and horses to prepare for departure. He asked the envoy curiously: "I haven't heard of any problems in Guanzhong!"
"It's calm outside, but there's an undercurrent inside!"
The envoy sent by Yang Guang did not hide anything, and said with a wry smile: "It's not like those a few nobles, who appear to be submissive on the surface, but secretly do a lot of small tricks, and are very restless!"
Seeing Leihu's calm expression, the envoy continued: "The key is that the Turks on the border are also restless. The martial master Bi Xuan and the demon commander Zhao Deyan have entered the border, and they obviously have no good intentions!"
oh……
Lei Hu suddenly realized that his trip to Guanzhong this time had nothing to do with the disputes in the court, but was invited by Yang Guang to suppress two powerful Turks.
"Do you know their specific location? When I go to Guanzhong, I will kill them directly!"
Lei Hu was not polite at all and asked directly: "If there are any restless foreign masters entering the customs, tell me where they are staying and we can solve it together!"
"..."
The envoy was dumbfounded for a while. He had seen bulls before, but he had never seen Wu Hou so arrogant.
Those are the two ace masters of the Turks, and the masters from outside the region are not easy to provoke.
However, he was relieved when he thought about Lei Hu's reputation as the best master in the world. Wu Hou really had the confidence to say such big words. Anyone who doesn't accept it can be punished by his subordinates.
"Wu Hou is domineering, but the whereabouts of the two Turkic masters are erratic, and there is really no certainty!"
The messenger smiled bitterly and said gloomily: "We can only send a large number of manpower to investigate!"
"It doesn't matter, they will show up anyway!"
Lei Hu waved his hand indifferently. At this time, the personal guards were coming over to report that they were ready and could leave for Guanzhong at any time.
"Then let's set off!"
Now that we have reached an agreement with Yang Guang, we should complete it well and help him take over the throne smoothly and stably. As for the others, which have little to do with Lei Hu, there is no need to pay too much attention to them.
The sound of military bugles alarmed the nearby city of Luoyang. Before the officials and people of Luoyang could react what was going on, Lei Hu personally led his personal guards and rumbled straight to Guanzhong, leaving only people staring at each other.
All parties responded quickly and quickly spread the news through various channels, so that the forces behind them would be mentally prepared and not be caught off guard by the sudden appearance of Wu Hou Leihu.
The most depressing ones were the Buddhists. Seeing Wu Hou and his entourage heading straight to Guanzhong, they could only stare and watch, and could do nothing else except quickly report the situation.
Lei Hu doesn't know any of this, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
To the forces in the North, he was just a passing visitor. If he was too entangled, there would be no need. Besides, there were no people or forces in the North that told him not to dare to touch lightly.
I just didn't expect that I was stopped before Tongguan closed the door.
"asshole!"
The accompanying envoy was furious and immediately took Yang Guang's token to negotiate. Lei Hu was not angry and just waited quietly under the pass.
Is this a showdown given by Guanzhong Menvai?
Lei Hu knew it in his heart, but he didn't care much.
Such little tricks are meaningless at all. On the contrary, they make people feel disdainful.
Besides making people sick, what else does it do?
Soon, he knew.
I saw the envoy sent by Yang Guang walking over with an angry look on his face and roaring angrily: "Asshole, they won't let us pass!"
"What reason?"
Lei Hu said amusedly: "Is it interesting to play such a trick?"
"It is said that thieves have appeared in the pass recently. They are searching for them with all their strength and do not allow large groups of people to enter or exit!"
The envoy sent by Yang Guang sneered: "Who are you trying to fool? Didn't the Dugu family's caravan leave the customs just now?"
"Then how do we proceed?"
Lei Hu asked: "If it is delayed for a long time, I'm afraid the situation in Guanzhong will change!"
"What do you think, Marquis Wu?"
The messenger asked helplessly: "I have no choice. After all, they occupy the home court!"
"Then just go around and pass by!"
Lei Hu said calmly: "If I lead people up to the mountains on both sides of Tongguan, will the envoy be able to suppress the arrogance of the general of Tongguan?"
The messenger's eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "Wu Hou means..."
"Haha, the weakest of the personal guards around me are at the third-rate level, but they are just mountains tens of feet high. It's so easy to climb up!"
As he said this, he ignored the surprised messenger and turned back to give some instructions to the general and deputy generals of the bodyguard.
The sound of the horn sounded in front of Tongguan Pass. The Sui soldiers guarding the pass were surprised, but the general guarding Tongguan had a sneer on his face. He wished that Lei Hu would take the initiative to attack the pass. Then he would be able to legitimately prevent the opponent from entering the border of Guanzhong.
.
But what happened next was the scene where the Tongguan guard and his soldiers opened their eyes wide with shock.
I saw Wu Hou's personal guards flying off their horses one after another, and with a few leaps, they came to the dangerous mountains on both sides of the Tongguan Pass Wall. They were like apes climbing up the rock. The steep mountains could not stop their progress at all.
, one by one like a monkey rising up in the mountains.
In just a few breaths, a dozen guards had jumped to the top of the mountain, and then thick ropes were lowered, and then more guards flew up on the ropes. In just a few seconds, there were hundreds of Wu
Hou Qinwei went up to the steep mountains on both sides of the Tongguan Pass Wall.
"Asshole, what are they doing?"
The general guarding Tongguan was so angry that he pointed at the men and horses under the pass and cursed loudly.
It was possible for him to block Wu Hou Leihu's progress, but it was impossible for him to confront the opponent. He did not want to break with the next emperor so early.
call out!
Just as he was scolding happily, suddenly a fierce wind blew in his face. The Tongguan guard was shocked and hurriedly slashed with his sword. After hearing a loud bang, the Tongguan guard's sword was knocked away, and he himself was also hit by a powerful force.
The force was so strong that it flew backwards.
Only then did he see clearly that it was an iron-headed javelin, broken into two pieces and falling quietly on the top of the city.
"Keep your mouth clean!"
Lei Hu's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by all the defenders on the city wall: "If you dare to speak dirty words again, you will be killed directly!"
There was a sudden silence on the city wall, and all the generals guarding the gate were shocked by Lei Hu's hand.
Besides, they weren't enemies, so they didn't want to take risks with the guard. If they were really killed, who would they look to for justice?
At this time, the envoy showed off his power and entered Tongguan Pass again. He did not know what he said to the guard. However, this time the guard did not dare to continue the trouble and hurriedly ordered the door to be opened and closed to let Wu Hou Leihu and his party pass through.
It won't work if you don't let go. People can pass through the mountains on both sides. When the time comes, whisper a few words in the new emperor's ears. No matter how big the head of the guard is, he can't withstand being chopped off.
At the same time, he was also frightened by Lei Hu's display of strength. A single javelin almost killed him. If the opportunity came again, he would not be able to withstand the torment.
In this way, Lei Hu and his party successfully passed Tongguan and entered the territory of Guanzhong, which is known as the foundation of the Qinchuan King's eight hundred miles.
At this time, the fertile fields in Guanzhong are thousands of miles away, and there are endless fields as far as the eye can see. In between, the fertile fields are crisscrossed by waterways, and they are obviously fertile fields that have been well cultivated.
Guanzhong is still the grain production center in the north, and it is not as desolate as it was after the Ming Dynasty. Obviously, the land in Guanzhong has not been completely exhausted at this time, which is enough to supply the consumption of countless soldiers and civilians throughout Guanzhong.
Of course, with the accumulation of the 20 years of the founding emperor's heyday, the number of people exploded and food gaps began to appear, and Guanzhong began to be unable to bear the huge amount of food consumption.
Although the fields here are still fertile, they have begun to suffer from excessive consumption of land resources. It is no wonder that Yang Guang later moved the capital to Luoyang. Obviously, the grain production in Guanzhong is no longer enough to supply the consumption of the entire northern land.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Thunder Tiger.
After entering the Guanzhong Plain, the weather here is quite different from the wealthy land of Heluo, with a hint of bravery.
There are many men in the official circles who are armed with knives and swords. Even ordinary passers-by are all big-bodied, round-waisted and full of energy. They are not people to be trifled with.
Lei Hu and his entourage attracted quite a lot of attention. Not only did Lei Hu have a mountain-like imposing manner, but also every one of his personal guards had an awe-inspiring demeanor that made people realize that they were good at first sight.
The army formation of a thousand people was connected with each other. Although there was no intention of deliberately targeting it, the pedestrians and merchants on the road subconsciously avoided it and did not dare to stop in front of the army formation of thousands of personal guards.
Tongguan is not far from Daxing. Once here, Yang Guang's influence and power gradually became apparent. No one dared to appear again. Lei Hu and his party quickly arrived outside Daxing City under the guidance of the envoy.
