Chapter 68 Breakthrough!

A gentle female voice came, smiling and saying:
"It's rare to see you so interested, Jilang."

The girl with the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Of course it's because I saw a genius in the world, just like seeing a rare flower, I always want to take him under my command and into my pocket. Speaking of which, it was your second brother who found such a person for me outside."

"I was right to snatch you from my elder brother and keep you in my house!"

The woman who was grinding ink blushed slightly and said softly, "Second Miss is just talking nonsense."

The girl smiled and said, "Anyway, I'm pretending to be a man outside, and I need you to help cover it up. Let's not talk about this anymore. Wu Gou, you grind the ink while I go find my elder brother and father. There are changes in the world, and we can't let go of such a good opportunity."

She straightened her clothes, wearing a white round-necked robe with large peonies embroidered with gold thread on the hem. A skilled craftsman had woven a crown with gold thread. She had a pair of phoenix eyes and a red vertical mark between her eyebrows. When she walked, her upper body was straight, and her right hand was on the hilt of the sword, but she looked very energetic.

Her father and eldest brother were discussing important matters.

After the girl entered, she spoke out her suggestion, but just as she suggested that a fierce general lead a small group of elite cavalry to fight, she was interrupted. The contemporary Duke of Longxi frowned slightly and sighed, "Don't mess around when it comes to family and national affairs."

The girl paused, took a half step forward, pointed at the geomancy map, and said:
"Now Tuyuhun has taken advantage of the change in the Southern Dynasty's defense and has marched south. The Western Regions are vast, but a large area lacks sufficient fertile land. The terrain of the Western Regions is complex, and there is a lack of sufficient vertical depth to face the heavy cavalry of the Turks in the north."

"Whether it's for self-protection or to accumulate strength, they will definitely take over the Chen area. Now Ying and the Turks are confronting each other in the north, and the Tanguts are also dormant. For them, even if there is danger, they will definitely not give up this piece of fat meat. Father, the opportunity is right in front of us."

The Duke scolded him, "Ridiculous, in terms of the state and the future of our country, aren't we inferior to a child like you?"

"In the past, you dressed like a man, rode horses and flew hawks, did business in various countries, and even took the eldest grandson's daughter into your house to raise her. I let you do whatever you want. My daughter doesn't have to be timid like others, embroidering and playing the piano. But how can you be so arrogant that you can interfere in national affairs at the age of ten?"

The elegant young man next to him laughed:

"Erlang, at your age, do you understand the art of war and the general situation?"

"Come here, my elder brother got some nice things from the capital, made of ivory, quite exquisite, I'll give them to you."

The Li family of the Duke's Mansion has the surname Ji. Their ancestors were given the surname of the country, so they have the surname Ji.

Her eldest brother's official name is Ji Jianwen, and he can also be called Li Jianwen.

At this moment, he stuffed a toy object into her sister's mouth with a teasing tone, and said with a smile: "Next, when the man is 15 and the woman is 13, we can talk about marriage leave. You should go paint and play the piano. As for the general situation of the world, my third brother and I can assist father."

The girl looked at her father and said earnestly:

"Only 800 cavalrymen, father. If success can bring great benefits, why not give it a try?"

The Duke frowned, feeling hesitant.

Li Jianwen asked: "How can we have such a strong force if we rashly send out troops at this time?"

“Who else can take on such a responsibility?”

The Duke exhaled. He was a cautious person. He hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to be cautious. He waved his sleeves and scolded: "Children's words are important to the country. We should be cautious and not be reckless. Erlang, don't say anything more."

The girl finally bowed and left.

Li Jianwen watched his sister leave. He saw her extraordinary grace and elegance. For some reason, he felt a little jealous of this extremely graceful sister. It was as if his elegance would always be robbed by her whenever they stood together.

The girl returned to her room, thought about it, and then began to put on armor.

Zhang Sun Wu Gou, who was grinding ink nearby, asked in confusion:
"Ji Lang, wasn't it rejected?"

The second young lady of the Li family raised her eyebrows and said:

"It doesn't matter. If they refuse, I'll just leave on my own."

Zhang Sun Wu Gou was very puzzled and asked, "But, aren't you not giving the generals the ability to execute the plan?"

"God General?"

There was a red vertical mark between her eyebrows. The girl with phoenix eyes raised her eyebrows slightly and said:
"I am the God General!"

Fenghuang, who had just celebrated his fourteenth birthday, was wearing black armor and holding a spear in his right hand. He said, "Xiao Wuliang was able to go into battle at the age of thirteen. How could I be inferior to him? I was also born with the Dharma Image and have already reached the third level of cultivation. In this world, I can be a general."

"If father and eldest brother ask, I will say that I was feeling depressed and took a group of people out hunting."

When this news spread, the Duke was shocked.

When asked how many people he brought, the minister replied that there were three hundred.

The state security officer then felt relieved, sighed, and said to his eldest son with a smile: "Jianwen, your second sister is very angry, but what can a mere 300 people do?"

"Let her be."

At this time, the Duke doted on his child and told him:
"Remember, don't run too far."

"be careful."

The phoenix of the Duke's Mansion agreed, and she flew out, but no one knew that she never came back even in her twilight years.

A young hero who dares to lead troops into battle at the age of fourteen is a rare existence in history.

But for Erlang of the Longxi Li family, it was a matter of course.

At night, the stars rose into the sky.

The battle line of Tuyuhun had reached the border of the Southern Dynasty. They had been preparing for war for many years, waiting for this moment.

But no one expected that the seven Turkic kings would appear silently at this moment and be at the upper hand of Tuyuhun. The wind from the west blew down, and Pojun, leaning on his halberd, grinned and looked in the direction of the Western Regions. Behind him, Tiefutu, known as the king of heavy cavalry, mounted his lance.

The old man who led the way rode a skinny horse, trembling in the night wind, and came close to Pojun.

The area where the Turks are located is very high, but the area bordering Tuyuhun is difficult to travel.

Unfortunately, this Po Jun was the one who stole the halberd from the sacred mountain of the Dangxiang people, and then fled all the way through the Western Regions and arrived at the Turkic steppes. He knew this road, and now, this road was going to be the reason for his escape to the Western Regions.

Riding on exotic beasts, both men and horses were wearing heavy armor, and the knights were all warriors of the second level.

He is the centurion on the grassland.

Elite, heavy armor, exotic war horses.

It eventually transformed into a giant steel beast, weighing ten thousand pounds. When charging, it formed a battle formation. The ten thousand pound monster rushed forward at an extremely high speed. The earth shook when its horse's hooves hit it, and it was enough to drill through the city gates. It was the well-deserved king of the armored heavy cavalry that had wreaked havoc on the battlefield in the past three hundred years.

It was not until twenty-two years ago that General Zhou, an old general of the State of Chen, fought a bloody battle and defeated the heavy cavalry with his hook-and-sickle spear, thus defeating the Turks. Only then did the king of heavy cavalry gain some luster. The people of the Central Plains proved their bravery and bravery, and the Turks returned home.

Later, the great general returned to the capital from the south of the Yangtze River. He was extremely handsome and elegant. It was a pity that fifteen years ago, when Prince Puyang started the rebellion, this general who defended the country had suffered a hidden injury due to killing the chief general of the Iron Buddha at that time, and died early.

Otherwise, if this fierce tiger who had been roaring on the battlefield for decades was still alive, there would be no regent in the State of Chen. Unfortunately, history is cruel and it is difficult for famous generals and beauties to have a good ending. Pojun licked his tongue and looked at the distant Western Regions.

The wind today carries the smell of blood.

He raised his halberd, on which hung a flag. There was no name or pattern on the flag, just the stars in the sky, just like the seven stars of the White Tiger rising in the west. This was a flag passed down from generation to generation, and was even placed alongside the flags of the seven kings.

Pojun grinned, clasped his hands, and tapped his chest lightly.

Behind him are the White Tiger Stars rising into the sky.

he thought.

My Lord, this is my first battle to make a name for myself in you.

The old man who led the way felt the military aura making him tremble, and said, "You are holding another person's banner like this, aren't you afraid that the seven Turkic kings will not allow you to go back?"

Pojun looked at him. The old man hesitated, but lowered his voice and said, "The Turks are greedy. The more heroic they are, the more they want to keep everything by their side. If you show your strategy and fail to conquer the Western Regions, he will kill you. But if you succeed, he will definitely use gold, jade, and beauties to win you over."

"If you still want to leave, he will still kill you and cook you in a cauldron."

"Even if I burn you to death, I will never let you return to the Central Plains."

Po Jun looked at the guide and said with a smile:
"It doesn't matter. I have a way to make him send me back obediently."

"If I can't do this, I don't deserve to be called Po Jun."

"When night falls, we will go down to kill them without any supplies. We will use the cattle and sheep of the Tuyuhun people as supplies and plunder their land..."

He said: "I am not good at fighting. The efficiency of fighting is too low."

"The battlefield, the battlefield is my destiny. Let heroes kill heroes, let heroes kill heroes. The flames of troubled times will naturally burn out a hero who is capable of conquering the world. Only then can there be true peace."

"The ideals of the Yaoguang clan are too immature. The peace of this world can only be created with swords and guns. Before that, we are all thugs with blood on our hands."

The Iron Pagoda moved. These killing machines rushed towards the Tuyuhun tribe. The heavy iron spears, wrapped in internal energy, tore through the walls and wooden stakes, pierced through everything that dared to resist, and then lifted them up. The smell of blood was strong. The old man trembled and looked at the handsome strategist, who took a deep breath with an intoxicated face.

Then suddenly he shouted.

This calm, intelligent strategist drew his spear beside him.

He actually joined the battlefield.

The old guide was dumbfounded and patted his horse, "You, you, you, aren't you not good at fighting?"

Pojun replied: "Not good at it."

“But I like it very much.”

"What strategist doesn't want to be included in his own plan? How can we let that group of warriors gain fame? The fact that I'm not good at fighting and the fact that I don't like it are two completely different things, hahahaha."

He laughed loudly and said solemnly in the battle array:

"The Lord of Xichen, the Master of Weapons and Weapons."

"The sky is eternal, the source of the hegemon."

Then he pierced a resisting Tuyuhun warrior with the spear in his hand. The blazing fire in his eyes was blood red, like a madman handing a torch and kerosene to the tyrant who burned the world.

While the emperor of the Southern Kingdom was holding the slender waist of a beauty and listening to the music of the zither with his officials, the phoenix of Longxi flapped its wings, the Tuyuhun, which had been accumulating power for eight years, headed towards the Southern Kingdom, the Dangxiang people were suppressing their blood feud, and the battle flag of the White Tiger Clan was raised again under the starry sky after an absence of five hundred years.

The iron hoofs of the Iron Pagoda crushed the dream of the overlord of the Western Regions.

The general trend of the world was shattered during this peaceful night in the Southern Dynasty and the cries of pain from the beautiful woman in the ear of the Emperor of Chen. The beautiful and gentle piano music of the Southern Dynasty and the fierce and heroic spirit of Longxi all gathered in this world.

Tonight, Li Guanyi suddenly opened his eyes.

Above the sky, the seven stars of the White Tiger are bright.

The White Tiger Dharmakaya appeared naturally and roared towards the sky, as if responding to something. This time, Yaoguang didn't need to say anything, Li Guanyi saw the fourth star of the West Palace in large numbers. The White Tiger Dharmakaya couldn't restrain its ferocity, it raised its head and roared, the starlight fell, and then fed back into Li Guanyi's body.

Burning like fire.

"This is... what Yaoguang said?"

"That second young master of the Duke's Mansion, is he really going to do it?"

"He chose my plan, and my fate became entangled with his. So the changes in the stars mean that I am the mastermind behind all this?"

"The West is plotting rebellion, and the White Tiger is supervising the troops?"

"Am I the mastermind?"

Li Guanyi reacted.

The internal energy in the meridians began to surge, and was naturally tempered according to the methods of "Jade Arm Divine Bow" and "Tiger Roar Bone Tempering" - the great changes in the world will cause the stars to change and omens to appear, and the constellations of the Seven White Tiger Stars are closely related to the White Tiger Dharmakāya, and will naturally have feedback like the tempering of the body by starlight.

There has never been a White Tiger Sect leader who is so young and at such a high level, but can change the world's situation.

The degree of feedback did not cause any ripples for the White Tiger clan of all generations.

But for Li Guanyi, it was too strong.

He felt his internal energy surging wildly and flowing rapidly at an extremely fast speed, and it seemed as if it was about to break through.

However, the White Tiger Dharmakaya's eyes were bloodshot, as if it was immersed in a dream of killing and war. Breaking through at this moment might have side effects. Li Guanyi clenched his right hand, and the Red Dragon Dharmakaya let out a long roar, controlling the White Tiger Dharmakaya. The Black Turtle slowly lay on the White Tiger Dharmakaya.

Didn't let this breath explode.

But this is only a temporary blockage. This kind of interception is a hard blockage, and the final extent of the outbreak may be even greater.

When the signs that he was about to break through were so strong.

Li Guanyi's first reaction was not to go find Mr. Xue.

Instead, he rode a horse and left Xue's house directly. It was already dusk and the main gate of Guanyi City was closed, but the side door was still open. The city guard was about to scold Li Guanyi, but he recognized the rhinoceros horn belt on Li Guanyi, which was only worn by military officers from the sixth to third ranks. He shuddered and dared not stop him.

He also opened the side door to allow the young man to ride out of the city.

His meridians were swollen and painful, and the white tiger was roaring fiercely, because the chaos in the Western Regions was too serious and Li Guanyi's realm was too low, the young man was affected, and he seemed to hear the whistling of swords and saw scenes of killing and battlefields. Before his consciousness was immersed in this dream of killing, he relied on his last bit of sanity to break into where Yaoguang was.

The girl knelt in front of the campfire.

There is a steamed bun stuck on the wooden stick.

She tried to imitate Li Guanyi's method. She placed honey and milk next to her and dipped the toasted buns in honey. She had a blank expression on her face, but there was anticipation in her eyes. She held the buns in her hands with her mouth open.

The sound of horse hooves is loud!
Li Guanyi broke in.

"Yaoguang!!!"

The wind stirred up the bonfire and the girl's hair slightly. She looked up and saw the bright White Tiger Stars in the sky. The White Tiger leader rode in on his horse, with a bonfire and a stream in front of him and bright stars above his head. The young man reined in his horse with a raised brow.

The girl took a bite of the bun.

bang.

Then he knelt in front of the campfire, holding the toasted buns in his hands, looking at Li Guanyi with a stable mood and no expression.

Li Guanyi's originally tense nerves relaxed and he suddenly laughed.

The young man turned over and fell from his horse.

He sat cross-legged in front of the campfire like a military commander, and reached out to pull the toasted bun out of the girl's mouth.

It took two tugs to pull it off.

Then he put his hands on his knees and said:

"Yao Guang!"

"I'm about to break through, so I came to find you."
