Great Song Frontier.

Dozens of miles outside the city.

More than 20,000 troops marched through the wilderness.

After receiving Zhao Dongting's letter that day, the two brothers Zhu Hecong and Zhu Haiwang, who were originally fighting on the Guangnan West Road, returned to Changsha with the generals of Dali. Liu Hongyi, Que Huarong and others led the Qiongzhou army and the Jingjiang Mansion garrison to escort those Dali soldiers to Jingjiang Mansion. And Liu Zhuwen, Zhang Hongwei, Miao Cheng and others led their soldiers directly to the west and went to Dali.

Hong Wutian, Jian Fourteen, Mrs. Xu, Zhu Zongyao and other Wudingtang worshippers also accompanied the army.

Now, they have finally arrived at the Dali border.

In front of you, there are endless rivers.

The army slowly stopped.

Liu Zhuwen and the others were all in front of the army, looking at the endless mountains and rivers in front of them, Liu Zhuwen, who was quite angry, was also a little high-spirited, and waved his hand: "The front is Dali!" ”

There is a stone monument more than ten meters in front of him.

The stele is written with two big characters of "Great Song", and there are vertical rows of small characters on the side, "Those who dare to offend the Song Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away!" ”

Miao Cheng stared at this stone tablet with his eyes and chuckled: "Yes, it's finally Dali." This time, we must take Dali for the emperor. ”

Zhang Hongwei's eyes were murderous, "You can't let this Dali continue to be surnamed Duan!" ”

In the past, because of the geographical environment, whether it was the Great Song Dynasty or the Yuan Dynasty, the dominance of Dali was not great. Dali has always maintained a state dominated by Duan's.

Now Duan Qilin has waved hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the Song Dynasty, which has made Liu Zhuwen and other generals angry, and they are no longer willing to ignore this Dali land.

The emperor has a great journey, and they will attack the reason this time, and they will inevitably make this Dali truly become the land of the Great Song Dynasty.

Hong Wutian, Jian Fourteen and other worshippers were immediately beside Liu Zhuwen and the others, and their eyes were also a little calm at this time.

After a long time, Liu Zhuwen suddenly looked back at the army and shouted: "The army is camped on the spot!" After resting, wave the army to attack! ”

"No!"

A loud response sounded in the army.

Although there is not much food and grass in the army up to now, Liu Zhuwen and the others have no worries. Quang Nam West Road is stable, and grain and grass will always be transported in a steady stream.

Zhao Dongting brought back potatoes and other new crops from the Americas, and improved rice cultivation methods. This made it impossible for the Great Song Dynasty to have no shortage of food at this time.

Even if those chaotic people burned a lot of grain, they still failed to force the Great Song Dynasty to the point of running out of food.

White tents gradually spread out in the wilderness.

After Liu Zhuwen and the others' tents were set up, they returned to their tents.

Some soldiers hung a map of Dali on the wall.

The other soldiers moved the sand table in.

Mountains and rivers and fields are outlined on the sand table, and nearly 20 flags are planted.

Momi, Woryu, Yuya, Yetho, Luowen, Luoxiong, Nurgle, Maitreya, Seokong-gun......

These banners are written on them, and they are the individual stock forces in Marble City County.

Among them, such as the Mo Mi tribe, the Maitreya tribe, the Ye Tho tribe, the Yu Ya tribe, etc., are powerful tribes, and they are recognized by the Dali Duan clan. For example, Luo Wen and Luo Xiong, because of their weak power, they were not recognized by the Dali Duan clan. However, they thrive in this Shicheng County, and each has its own leader.

This time, the commander of the soldiers and horses of Shicheng County led an army of 30,000 to go out with Feng Hebi, and the small tribes of Luowen and Luoxiong also sent troops to a greater or lesser extent.

As soon as the sand table was set up, Liu Zhuwen, Zhang Hongwei and others went around the sand table.

These days, every night when they camped, they would do this, discussing the strategy of attacking Shicheng County.

Although there are no more soldiers in Dali now, fighting a war has never been something that can be taken lightly.

Even until now, Liu Zhuwen and the others have not yet decided on a definite strategy for attacking Shicheng County. However, tonight I think about it, even if it is decided.

Liu Zhuwen put his hands on the sand table and smiled at the generals: "Everyone, tomorrow we will officially attack Dali." At present, there are still two voices in the army, Commander Miao advocates dividing the troops to take each department, and I advocate driving straight into Poshicheng County first, and then sending an envoy to let the leaders of each department surrender to Cheng. Let's think about it for a while, and then get ready to vote! ”

Although the supreme command of General Zhao Dongting was handed over to Liu Zhuwen, Liu Zhuwen obviously did not mean to say anything.

This is for the sake of unity in the army, and it is also for the respect of Miao Cheng, Zhang Hongwei and others.

He Liu Zhuwen is indeed more capable of fighting than Miao Cheng and Zhang Hongwei, but Miao Cheng and Zhang Hongwei's qualifications in the army are older than him. Especially Miao Cheng, who was a general a long time ago.

Hearing Liu Zhuwen's words, the generals either pondered or discussed carefully.

Everyone has confidence in taking Shicheng County. But of course, I still want to find the most effortless and fastest way.

The sunset is gradually setting towards the mountain.

Liu Zhuwen was not in a hurry, but quietly waited for the generals to discuss the results.

"General!"

At this time, a pro-army outside the tent suddenly walked into the tent, looked at Liu Zhuwen and said, "There is a messenger from Ziqi." ”

"Self-defeating messenger?"

The eyes of everyone in the tent converged on this soldier.

Liu Zhuwen said, "Please come in." ”

At the beginning, Dali attacked the Song Dynasty and fell from Ziqi. It was only with the collapse of the Dali army that Ziqi returned to the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, and the government was established again in a short period of time.

Liu Zhuwen and the others listened to the messenger from Ziqi, and only thought that it was some letter from Jingjiang Mansion, or something happened in Ziqi.

The soldiers went out of their tents.

Soon a messenger dressed in the garb of a servant entered the tent.

His eyes swept over the people in the tent, and he knocked head-on: "The little official has seen all the generals!" ”

At this time, not to mention Liu Zhuwen, Zhang Hongwei, and Miao Cheng, even the armor worn by the rest of the generals can also make this messenger think so.

These are all captains!

The commanders in the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, in terms of official rank, are much higher than their self-appointed commanders.

Fortunately, this messenger didn't know the identities of Hong Wutian and the others, otherwise he would really be scared of his legs.

"Get up!"

Liu Zhuwen waved his hand at the messenger and said, "Who asked you to send the letter?" ”

The messenger said, "It's the letter of the Imperial City." ”

Then he hurriedly got up, walked to Liu Zhuwen and took out the letter.

When everyone in the hall heard this, their faces showed a little surprise.

No one thought that there would be a letter in the imperial city at this time.

Liu Zhuwen took the letter with a slight frown.

He secretly wondered if the emperor was going to change his policy.

Could it be that something is going on in the territory of Jinghu North Road?

When he opened the letter, a smile appeared on his face at great speed, and in the end, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Without waiting for everyone to ask, Liu Zhuwen said: "Everyone, great joy, great joy!" ”

He was even so excited that his hands were trembling, "The emperor and Deputy Zhang ordered the Dali army led by Feng Hebi in Chenzhou, and Feng Hebi and Dali Prince Duan Shi led 50,000 people to surrender to our dynasty!" Now, there are really not many soldiers and horses in Dali, and we don't need to worry about Feng Hebi leading the army to kill back, we can lead the army directly to the imperial city of Dali! ”

After saying that, he laughed again.

Everyone in the hall was slightly stunned, and then they all showed surprise.

Miao Cheng took the letter from Liu Zhuwen's hand, and his hands couldn't help shaking.

The letter was written by Le Chan. Because it is a flying pigeon biography, there is not much content, but every word can be said to have a very heavy weight.

Before, Miao Cheng and Liu Zhuwen planned to take Shicheng County first, step by step, all because they were worried that Feng Hebi might lead the army to kill back, but now, there is no such concern.

Although they only have more than 20,000 troops and horses, where can there be an army in Dali that can stop them?

Where else can there be an army that can cut off their back roads?

Liu Zhuwen slapped his hands heavily on the sand table, looked at Miao Cheng, and said: "Commander Miao, I propose that the army take Shicheng County directly, and then go through Shanyan Mansion and Langdong Mansion to take Dali Imperial City." Duan Qilin, the monarch of Dali, was caught off guard, what do you think? ”

"Good!"

Miao Cheng nodded heavily.

Then both of them looked at Zhang Hongwei again.

Zhang Hongwei, who was wearing an eye patch, opened his mouth and smiled, "I am willing to lead the soldiers under my command to be the vanguard!" ”

Liu Zhuwen said: "Okay, then Commander Zhang, you lead the army and not the vanguard!" Haha, so straight to the Yellow Dragon, we probably don't need to wait for the defenders to send grain and grass again! ”

Everyone in the tent laughed.

Liu Zhuwen directly pulled out all the flags on the sand table, and said in high spirits: "When we take the Dali Imperial City, let's clean up these tribes again." ”

For a while, there was an extremely high-spirited atmosphere in the tent.
