In 262 BC, the tenth year of King Wucheng, this year will always be remembered by future generations. Later generations of historians rated this year as a crucial year in determining the course of history.

The two major wars that decided the fate of many countries, the epic Liaodong War and the Changping War, which were talked about by later generations, both kicked off this year.

Since the beginning of the year, the entire Central Plains has never calmed down. In the northeast and west of the Central Plains, soldiers from many countries are converging, like many torrents, about to converge and collide.

In the state of Chu, the great poet Qu Yuan, who committed suicide by jumping into the Miluo River, died of illness last year. The crown prince of Chu was also kept as a hostage by Qin, and there was chaos within Chu.

In order to let the crown prince return to China to inherit the throne, the state of Chu appointed Huang Xie as the ambassador plenipotentiary to negotiate with the state of Qin, and the crown prince returned to the state of Chu to inherit the throne. According to Qin Xiang Fan Sui's suggestion, in order to make the Chu State chaotic, he had no time to take care of the strategy of the Qin State. Let Huang Xie, the plenipotentiary ambassador appointed by the Chu State, go back to the Chu State first, and then make plans after returning to the Qin State.

Huang Xie was helpless, after discussing with the crown prince. Let the prince of Chu finish his work, disguise himself as the chauffeur of the envoy of Chu, and escape from the Qin checkpoint. After the crown prince of Chu fled back to Chu, he ascended the throne as the king of Chu.

The king of Chu named Huang Xie as the king of Chunshen and gave it to the twelve counties of Huaibei. and Qi State Meng Weijun, Zhao State Pingyuan Jun, Wei State Xinling Jun, and are known as the "Four Princes".

And Ji Kang, the son of Dayan, is still not valued by people in the Central Plains, and he doesn't know anything about the upcoming Liaodong War.

On the first day of the fifth lunar month, the palace of the prince of Xiangping City, the palace of Qinzheng.

Today is the day of the Great Dynasty, and the hall is lined up with civil and military officials.

Ji Kang, the lord of Liaocheng, who was sitting on the throne of the palace, was listening to the envoy sent by Donghu Danyu below, and read out the content of the letter written by Donghu Danyu to Ji Kang in Kublai answer: "...... If you want to quit the army, you need to pay 500,000 catties of salt and 200,000 horses ......of woolen cloth. Today, I heard that the concubine of Prince Yan was gorgeous and moving, and the widow wanted to make an appointment with him in Wangping....... ”

Jun Xiangju Xin was furious and shouted: "Bold." ”

All the civil and military ministers of Liaodi reprimanded one after another.

After hearing this, Ji Kang slowly stood up on the main seat, looked up to the sky and laughed, and then said without hesitation: "Come on, cut off the head of this Hu man, and let their deputy envoy send it to Kubida." ”

The envoy of the palace was shocked: "The two countries exchange troops, and the envoy will not be killed." ”

Ji Kang waved his hand and didn't care. And the Donghu envoy who was carried out by the warrior in front of the palace scolded: "Ji Kang, you shameless boy, I am waiting for the king of my family in the underworld to make your head into a wine vessel......"

After the Donghu envoy was carried out, Ji Kang looked at the many ministers on the left side of the front of the palace, and then looked at the many generals who came from all over the Liao on the right, slowly walked down the palace steps, turned around at the door of the hall, and shouted: "My lords, the enemy is coming from three sides today, and I will attack Liaodi." But I, Ji Kang, will never be reluctant, and I am willing to fight to the death. If our army is defeated, I, Ji Kang, swear here that I am willing to die for my country and never retreat. ”

The civil and military officials in front of the hall and the soldiers outside the hall all shouted hoarsely: "Fight to the death!" Fight to the death! Fight to the death! ”

In the evening, the Xiangping City General's Palace, Military Staff.

Ji Kang and Ju Xin, Zou Yan, Lu Zhonglian, Ji Mao, as well as Rong Yan, Bo Wang, Wang Shi, Shi Yong and many other senior civil and military officials in Liao. Looking at his feet, he was transferred to the staff department by the graduates of Xiangping Academy and served as a "sand table" built by the officers who served as staff officers

Ji Kang said to everyone: "The form is already very clear, this is the current battle situation map between the enemy and us.

At present, the enemy forces of Donghu, Goguryeo, and Kei have been gathered and have marched towards our border. The direction of Donghu's attack is my Wangping and Houyu, the direction of Goguryeo's attack is my Xi'anping and Wuci, and the direction of Ji's attack is my Fanhan area, and the battle is earlier than we expected! ”

Rong Yan, Bo Wang, Wang Shi and many other generals looked at each other and knelt on one knee together.

Rong Yan said loudly to Ji Kang: "Childe, now all the 60,000 regular troops and 100,000 reserve troops in my Liao have all gathered into an army, please give the order to meet the battle." ”

Ji Kang nodded: "This is my Liao land, a battle of life and death." According to the battle plan drawn up by the generals and the Military Staff......"

Then he paused, and ordered loudly in a still immature, high-pitched voice: "I order."

Ordered General Rong to lead the regular army of 10,000 cavalry, 30,000 infantry, 60,000 militiamen, and 200 chariots to meet the Goguryeo enemy army on the front line of Xi'an Ping;

ordered the Overseer to stabilize the situation in the rear, and to put to death all those who committed disorderly and adulterous acts;

ordered General Shi Yong to do a good job in the inspection and guarding of various industrial zones to ensure the production and supply of military materials on the front line;

ordered the officials of all departments of the Junhou Mansion and the counties and counties of Liaodi to stick to their posts and prepare to support the front line;

Ordered Wangping, Houyu, Fanhan and other places bordering the Three Kingdoms to move all the grain depots and material depots outside the city to the county seat and rear warehouses, and it was too late to recover all the grain and materials in the city and burn them.

The armies of all walks of life were ordered to rush to the front line early the morning after tomorrow and rush to the designated battle area. ”

"No." Everyone answered in unison.

Ji Kang then said to Rong Yan, Bo Wang, and Wang Shi: "Generals, you wait this time to lead the army to meet the enemy's army, don't be in a hurry, fight according to your ideas, remember to despise the enemy strategically, and pay attention to the enemy tactically."

Especially General Rong Yan, don't be in a hurry to consider returning to the army of Bo Wang and Wang Shi; General Bo Wang and Wang Shi, you two will meet Donghu and the enemy army of the Ji clan this time, and you must not rush forward, you must defend Wangping and Fanhan, and wait for the main force to return to help. Don't be afraid that there won't be enough troops, I'm always ready to ...... I am ready to personally bring more than 200,000 reserve troops to support you. ”

The three of them looked at the little prince who was smiling and comforting themselves, thinking of this lord who had just reached the age of ten and who had just reached the age of ten and who had the grace of knowing and promoting him, and thinking of the unprecedented predicament that Liaodi was currently encountering.

The circles under my eyes were red, and I almost burst into tears. replied in unison: "Please rest assured." ”

In the early morning of May 3, the sky was just dawning, and the whole city of Xiangping was noisy.

Ji Kang, Ju Xin, Zou Yan, Lu Zhonglian and other ministers stood on the east wall of Xiangping City, and the official roads under the city were crowded with people who came to see off their troops.

When the sun has just risen over the horizon and shines on the earth. The military drums sounded in the surrounding military camps outside Xiangping City at the same time, and a majestic and loud military song that everyone had never heard before, accompanied by the sound of drums, sang from the surrounding military camps at the same time:

The flag is cracked, and the crack breaks the sky.

The drums of war are pounding, and the ground is shaken.

Dayan Tie rode a horse and neighed, and the west wind whistled.

The officers and men of the three armies held long tassels and were anxious and courageous.

The horse traveled thousands of miles to the machine, but I was the only one who had a big swallow and an iron hoof.

The blazing man's fire, roaring and roaring about life and death.

Drink the old wine and be rewarded, and swear to dare to take ten thousand households.

The blood is flowing alive and yellow, and the iron bones serve the soul of the country.

The common people have good sons and daughters from generation to generation.

The green mountains are splendid to build homes, and the peace of all generations will be created.

……

Rows and rows of neatly arranged troops, marching in neat steps, singing loud and majestic military songs. From both sides of Xiangping Castle converge to the official road, and go to the front line in order.

The people on both sides of the road were completely boiling. In the past three years or so, under the vigorous propaganda of the government, and under the army's repeated efforts to help the people plow, harvest, and build dangerous houses, the people of Liaodi have long regarded this army as their own children.

And this time, the government did not hide the news of the enemy army of the three sides to invade Liao. The people all know that their soldiers are rushing to the front line at this moment to protect the lives of the people from being killed, to defend their land from being encroached upon, to defend their cities and houses from being burned, and to protect their food and wealth from being robbed.

People on both sides of the road had tears in their eyes. Under the leadership of the academy students, they shouted the slogan of victory over and over again, cheering for their own soldiers.

In particular, the people broke through the barriers of the sergeants who maintained order again and again, and stuffed eggs, steamed buns, and meat in their hands into the hands of these sergeants who rushed to the front line.

Looking at this never-before-seen scene, all the officials on the city wall and their families were stimulated to tears.

The old man had tears in his eyes, and said to Ji Kang, who also had red circles under his eyes: "Son, the people's heart can be used, and the army's heart can be used." Our army will win this battle, and this battle will be won! ”

On the road, the front of the Liao army had turned into a black dot on the edge of the sky, while the rear army still continued to pass far from both sides of Xiangping City. The loud and majestic military song reverberated throughout the Liaodi.
