I am a thief in the Tang Dynasty

Afterwards, Xue Li's honest face was full of determination, and his eyes were sharp.

The opportunity is right in front of him, no matter what it is, he can't miss it!

Fang Yiyi took in Xue Li's expression and became even more satisfied with it. The next moment, he restrained his smile and continued in a deep voice:

"I only recognize the sign, not the person. You can fight and rob each other, but no matter what method you use, the one who stands in front of me with the sign is the winner!"

The words fell.

A group of young men looked at each other.

Then Xue Li took the brunt and ran towards the woods, and the others hurriedly followed, unwilling to be left behind.

Fang Yiyi sat directly on the ridge of the field, watching these young men rushing into the woods.

Chai Xueying, dressed in black, came to her husband like a rocket, with a heroic look.

The originally charming face now looks very heroic due to the change in temperament.

"My dear, with Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter and I watching over us, no one should be killed."

"But aren't the tests you set a bit too extreme?"

"Moreover, the trap you set is simply horrifying. I tried twice before, but I couldn't escape unscathed."

"What's more, these poor young people who can barely read a single word?"

Chapter 137: Forest Test

Fang Yiyi's eyes flickered, and he said faintly:

"I want someone who is not only quick to react and ruthless, but most importantly, cooperative."

"Those traps are difficult, but as long as two or three people work together, there is no danger at all."

Chai Xueying's eyes flickered. She guessed what her husband said immediately. She took a deep breath and said:

"My husband, what you really want to choose is a leader that these young men will admire?"

Fang Yiyi nodded heavily and sighed:

"It is easy to find a brave general, but it is hard to find a handsome man."

"I can't bring all of these people with me. I must choose a talented general who is loyal to me and the Tang Dynasty to be their leader and control them for me."

At the same time, he had something else to say: the powerful generals of the Tang Dynasty were like carp crossing the river, countless in number, and none of them would submit to anyone else.

Only during the Zhenguan period, only the recognized Marshal Li Jing and Emperor Li Shimin of Tang were able to suppress the other heroes.

However, no matter how brave and powerful a general is, he will eventually grow old with gray hair, be unable to mount a horse, or lift a gun.

After the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, there were many brave generals, but there were only a handful of talented commanders, and there was a gap.

Only Su Dingfang, Xue Rengui, Li Guangbi and Guo Ziyi can be called talented generals.

Although Xue Rengui had made outstanding achievements, he won the favor of Li Shimin and was promoted to the rank of General of the Central Army.

However, due to his background, in this era where family background was important, he was often sent into battle as a brave general. Even after he was awarded the third-rank official title, he was still marginalized. The lack of cooperation from his colleagues led to his defeat in the Battle of Dafeichuan.

Right now, Fang Yiyi is preparing to lay a solid foundation for Xue Rengui in advance and stand up for him. Who knows, Tubo, which will become a strong enemy of the Tang Dynasty in the future, will surrender to the Tang Dynasty under Xue Rengui's sword.

Chai Xueying looked towards the woods. Her husband had just shown great concern for the poor boy named Xue Li.

And her husband never made a mistake in choosing people, and he also had some luck in finding mines in mountains. She thought Xue Li was a very good person.

Then he said, "My dear, I will go to the woods and see for you how Xue Li is doing!"

.......

Among the woods.

The cautious Xue Li looked in horror at the young men who were either knocked unconscious by the mechanisms, hung up, or fell into deep ditches and unable to climb out.

Look at the twelve wooden signs that are placed in a conspicuous place in the dense forest. It seems that anyone can pick them up, but they are wrapped in mechanisms and cannot be approached. They are as scary as evil spirits.

Gudong!

He swallowed and murmured, "This trap of yours is hard to guard against. If he wants to kill someone, he will die here today!"

After entering the woods just now, he deliberately walked slowly and fell behind.

I saw with my own eyes those young men in front of me were tricked for no apparent reason.

No matter how cautious the people in front were and how carefully they watched, those traps were really hard to guard against.

In just a moment, more than a dozen people screamed and cried out, which made Xue Li feel that there might be some man-eating ghost hiding in this dense forest.

Extremely horrifying!

next moment.

Xue Li frowned and said to the young man in front of him who was also frightened and dared not move forward: "Erniu, step back and we will go together."

Liu Erniu, who used to follow Xue Li closely, heard Xue Li's voice and without hesitation walked back the same way he came and went to Xue Li's side.

Liu Erniu was as strong as his name, and as sturdy as a calf. His voice was changing, and he asked in a sharp voice:

"Rengui, what are you going to do?"

Xue Li said, "Don't go get the wooden sign yet, rescue those trapped first."

Liu Erniu was surprised and said, "Ah? If we rescue them, won't they compete with us for the wooden sign? What's the point?"

Chapter 138 You have completely disgraced the women's army

Xue Li shook his head and said:

"There are too many traps. Someone needs to find the way for us."

"In addition, we reached a cooperation agreement with them. We saved them. They must keep two of the twelve wooden signs for us, otherwise..."

The young man was all alone, without a pass, traveling from place to place. Without any skills, he might have been killed by some villains.

Thinking of Xue Li's extraordinary strength, Liu Erniu no longer hesitated and worked with him to rescue the five young men who were trapped by the machine.

Then, Xue Li used bribes and force to coerce them, and soon ten young men, who were not familiar with him except Liu Erniu, gathered around him to decide the ownership of the twelve wooden signs.

Chai Xueying, who was hiding in the dense tree canopy, was greatly surprised to see Xue Li easily become the leader of the eleven young men. She secretly smacked her lips and said:

"This Xue Li is really good. He is well versed in the art of forming alliances and making alliances."

"In this way, the remaining young men will not dare to compete with him."

"Even if someone is lucky enough to get the wooden sign, if they can't leave in time, Xue Li will lead the crowd to attack, and they won't be able to keep it."

Chai Xueying raised the corners of her mouth and let out a crisp bird cry.

The eyes of the four girls, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, who were hiding in various places, suddenly lit up, and they looked at the young man in the field with strange and malicious smiles.

Let the sisters take you to feel what true despair is!

......

An hour later.

Xue Li, with a bruised face and nose, carried the unconscious Liu Erniu and staggered to Fang Yiyi.

He said in a deep voice, "My dear, his name is Liu Erniu, and this is the wooden token he got."

After saying that, Xue Li put Liu Erniu on the field, took out a wooden sign from his arms, placed it on Liu Erniu's chest, then turned around and staggered back.

After running like this ten times.

Xue Li, who was sweating profusely, had a cheerful look in his eyes. He raised the last wooden sign with a simple smile and looked at Fang Yiyi and said with a smile:

"My dear, the twelve of us have passed the assessment."

Fang Yiyi smiled and nodded, "Okay, from now on, the twelve of you will be called the Snow Leopard Guard."

After hearing the desired result, Xue Li could no longer suppress his excitement. He waved his fists towards the angel and roared:

"I succeeded!"

Fang Yiyi smiled, as if he saw himself when he passed the assessment and joined the special forces team.

But the next moment, Fang Yiyi shouted sternly:

"You can't be happy yet, this is just the beginning!"

"Next, there will still be countless tests, and anyone who fails will still be kicked out of the Snow Leopard Guard!"

Xue Li was startled in an instant, and said with a stern face:

"My dear, I will definitely continue to pass the tests!"

Fang Yiyi nodded, glanced at the eleven people still unconscious on the ground, and said:

"Wake them up and gather at the courtyard in half an hour."

"Yes, sir!" Xue Li quickly agreed.

Fang Yiyi walked towards the courtyard with brisk steps.

Before I even entered, I heard Chai Xueying scolding me harshly.

"...It's shameful that I was beaten like this by a young boy."

"You have completely disgraced the women's army."

"Two sixth-rank lieutenants and two fifth-rank generals were taken down one after another, and this general had to do it himself."

"If life in Chang'an makes you only think about comfort and ease, and not about making progress, then get out of here and go back to Niangzi Pass!"

It was the first time that Fang Yiyi heard his beloved wife lose her temper with her own people, and what she said was very interesting. He could not help but quicken his pace and stepped into the house.

When his eyes swept over the four girls, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.

Chapter 139: Horseshoe's First Battle Victory

Fang Yiyi had a strange expression, the corners of his mouth curled up wildly, and he couldn't help but exclaimed:

"What a great Xue Li and Xue Rengui! They are so amazing!"

"Too badly for such a battle-hardened warrior to suffer such a great loss."

There were only four girls: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.

They either had panda eyes or one side of their faces was swollen, their clothes were torn, their hair was disheveled, and they looked in a very miserable state.

There was no trace of her former beauty and majesty, and she stood there dejectedly.

The sudden sound of footsteps made Chai Xueying turn around and look.

When Senhan's gaze fell on Fang Yiyi, it immediately became tender.

Chai Xueying immediately turned into a shy and gentle wife, stepped forward and took Fang Yiyi's arm, praising him:

"My husband really has a unique vision. The Xue Li you chose is so amazing."

"You don't know, he used traps to trap Chun, Xia, and Qiu. Then, fearing that they would resist, he punched and slapped them."

"I fought with the strongest Li Dong for more than a hundred moves and defeated him. He even lasted twelve moves against me. He is truly gifted!"

"With a little training, generals of his generation will definitely not be his match."

The message conveyed by Chai Xueying's praise of Xue Rengui was far beyond Fang Yiyi's expectations, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Wow, he is indeed worthy of being a famous general of the Tang Dynasty in the future. He is still young and has not received any formal training, but he is so strong.

No wonder he was favored by Li Shimin and praised for his bravery and strength, and was even called the successor to many veteran generals. He was really strong.

Fang Yiyi smiled and said, "Then let's do as we said. You teach him the art of war and I'll teach him other things."

"We will try to make him the first demon that we have taught."

Chai Xueying was so excited that she nodded quickly like a chick pecking at rice.

Being defeated by an untrained young man, Chun, Xia, Qiu, and Dong, who were filled with humiliation, heard the conversation between the couple and could not help but step forward, cross-arm salute, and bow, and request in unison:

"Sanlang, General, can you train us too?"

Fang Yiyi had no objection. As Chai Xueying's personal soldiers and maids, the four girls should learn more skills, especially anti-tracking, wilderness survival and battlefield first aid, so as to better protect Chai Xueying's safety.
