The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 1038 Meeting Fang Xuanling
The rest of the generals didn't know what was written in the letter, and they all guessed the content of the letter by looking at their expressions, but judging from their reactions, the letter should have created a problem for Yang Yong.

At this time, Xu Maogong said, "Lord Fang, I am very appreciative of this idea. As His Majesty the King of Tang said in his letter, it can reduce the suffering of the common people. What's going on, can my lord explain it to our prince first?"

Fang Xuanling smiled, "Of course, if you think it is necessary, you can watch the formation in advance. The so-called five elements are formations composed of five materials: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and these five formations are related to The big formations in the past are different. There are no thousands of troops and horses inside, but they are concentrated in one building. There are five formations on each floor. Your military adviser Li Jing is on the top floor. Don't worry, everyone is safe and sound, and there are three meals a day. As long as you break through the five formations, no matter how many people you use, even if one person enters the platform and rescues others alive, you can take away your military adviser Li Jing unscathed. The troops will never intervene in any way, as for how to go to war next time, that is a matter for the future.”

Although Fang Xuanling said it so easily, Xu Maogong has never entered this stage, and he doesn't know what the five formations are, but Xu Maogong certainly knows that this must be a very powerful formation, otherwise Li Shimin would not be able to use Li Jing as a formation. Chips to bet on winning or losing.

So Xu Maogong smiled indifferently: "Master Fang, do we have the right to choose? Can we not gamble?"

Fang Xuanling smiled and said: "Of course, the decision to gamble or not is entirely up to you. If you don't gamble, it means that you have given up on Li Jing, your military advisor, and let us deal with it casually. But if you agree to gamble If you go down, you have to be willing to admit defeat. If you are rescued, we will not attach any conditions. You just take him away in a big way, and this matter will not be mentioned again. But if you can’t save him, your If you are trapped inside, or you are helpless against the Five Elements Kunlun Jueming Terrace when the deadline is reached, then you will unconditionally withdraw your troops to the south of the Yellow River as stated in the letter, and pay tribute to His Majesty every year, and become ministers every year. At that time, His Majesty may consider returning your military division to you in its entirety."

Speaking of this, Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and showed a big smile, as if they had seen the dawn of victory, and there was confidence in the smile.

Hearing this, Yang Yong became a little uneasy. Obviously, Li Shimin didn't leave him a way out, and it was impossible not to save Li Jing.With Yang Yong's style, not to mention a broken platform, even if he goes up the mountain of knives or down the pan of oil, he can't just leave him alone!
So Yang Yong said, "Lord Fang, in fact, you have already expected that this king will definitely agree to break the formation, right? Then today, this king will not let you and your majesty down. This time, this king is betting!"

As soon as this remark came out, Xu Maogong looked at Yang Yong in surprise, and said to himself, my lord, are you a little reckless?The rest of the generals also heard the eighty-eight ninety-nine from their conversation, and looked at Yang Yong with puzzled eyes.

"My lord speaks quickly, I admire that." Fang Xuanling didn't expect Yang Yong to make a decision so quickly. He thought they would do some research anyway, and it would be great if they could go back and return within three days.

"However, Mr. Fang, since you are here to write the letter on behalf of your majesty, you must be the master. We must first be a villain and then a gentleman. If we break the Five Elements Kunlun Jue Ming Platform within the time limit, you will not change your mind, right? ? Words count."

Listening to Yang Yong's words, Fang Xuanling swore: "My lord, don't worry, Fang and His Majesty have always been trustworthy people, and Fang can use his personality as a guarantee. And it's not just talking, Fang also brought a formal The agreement, His Majesty has already signed and used the seal, and the prince must also sign and use the seal, both parties can tell the world that they are willing to bet and admit defeat, and no one will be able to keep their promises when the time comes."

"Okay, Mr. Fang really enjoys doing things."

At this time, Fang Xuanling took out the formal agreement from his bosom again, handed it to Yang Yong in duplicate.

Looking at the case, Yang Yongpu found that this formal agreement was also handwritten by Fang Xuanling, but the meaning of the letter was articulated, and it was clarified that the time limit for breaking the formation was within one month after the two parties formally signed it. The two agreements are verbatim, with Li Shimin's autographed signature, big red jade seal and date, etc. are all in place. Yang Yong's signature and date are left blank next to it, which is very eye-catching.

Yang Yong didn't hesitate anymore when he saw this, he picked up a pen and wrote his name and date on the brush, and then used the seal.After the ink was dry, fold it up, give one copy to Fang Xuanling, and keep the other copy for Yang Yong himself.

Yang Yong said again: "Master Fang, when can we watch the formation?"

Fang Xuanling felt relieved, "Your Majesty, you can do it at any time. His Majesty is waiting in Yizhou City right now. Your Majesty has something to say beforehand, and His Majesty will personally accompany you into the stage to watch the formation."

"Very good, Mr. Fang, please go back and tell Li Shimin that this king will go to the Five Elements Kunlun Jueming Terrace to watch the formation at this time tomorrow, so that he can get ready."

"It's a deal." Fang Xuanling took the agreement and stood up to leave. Yang Yong asked him to stay for dinner in the camp, but Fang Xuanling politely refused.Soon, five men and five riders left Yang Yong's camp.

After sending Fang Xuanling away, Xu Maogong said worriedly: "My lord, do you know exactly what these five formations are?"

Yang Yong looked at the backs of Fang Xuanling and the others, and said without saying a word: "The military master is well-informed and doesn't know, how can I know where to go?"

"Are you sure about breaking the Five Elements Kunlun Jueming Terrace? In a month, you can reach it in the blink of an eye?"

"If you are sure, you have to break it. If you are not sure, you have to break it. Military division, do we have a choice?"

"But my lord, why don't we answer him right away? Let him rest here for a day and a half. I'll study it carefully. It's good now. My lord has signed and stamped it. The raw rice has become cooked rice. If we can't break through, we have to be willing to admit defeat. Not only can we not save people, but we have to withdraw all our troops to the south bank of the Yellow River. "Xu Maogong said while shaking his head and sighing.

The rest of the generals were all worried when they heard it, because none of them knew what the Five Elements Kunlun Jueming Platform was, but just by hearing the name, they knew it was very mysterious, including Li Wan'er, they didn't dare to say anything, I also complained in my heart that Yang Yong was really reckless this time.

At this time Cheng Yaojin spoke, "It's not too late for the lord to regret it, Fang Xuanling hasn't gone far, let the general chase him back, get the agreement back, and simply detain the surname Fang, Li Shimin won't let us go Li Junshi, we will not let his left prime minister Fang Xuanling go, let's see what he will do?"

As Cheng Yaojin said, he ordered people to prepare horses and carry the axe. Yang Yimeng also applauded Cheng Yaojin's approach, and he wanted to follow Cheng Yaojin with the double-headed snake.The rest of the generals had no better way, they all looked at Yang Yong noncommittally.

Yang Yong glared, "Nonsense! What will become of this king? Wouldn't he be ridiculed by the people of the world? Needless to say, the Five Elements Kunlun Jueming Terrace is the gate of hell, and this king wants to break through. He ordered the three groups of people to pull out their camps. Zhai, set off according to the original route!"
