Soldiers have the duty to protect their families and defend the country, and before every major war, from soldiers to generals, they are all gearing up, waiting for the commander's order to rush to the front line to kill the enemy.

Jingzhao Mansion, the Western Front Defense Embassy.

The envoys from all walks of life on the Western Front came one after another, and everyone knew that this was the first military meeting of the defense envoy, and everyone knew the importance, and no one wanted to leave a bad impression on Liu Envoy.

For a long time, the Western Army has given the imperial court a bad impression of being arrogant and fierce, otherwise Tong Guan would not have deliberately suppressed the Western Army when he came to the Western Front. Now that Tong Guan is gone, Liu Envoy, who understands military affairs more and is more domineering, can be said that everyone knows what this means.

Qu Duan has been in good spirits recently, after the Western Xia retreated, he led the army to take the opportunity to regain the lost territory, this forty-year-old general actually married the seventh aunt again, and it blossomed, in this case, of course, the mood is good. In order to express his gratitude and respect for Liu Yuanjun, Qu Duan arrived at Jingzhao Mansion three days in advance, accompanied by more than a dozen cronies.

Qu Duan said to Yao Pingzhong, who had a sad face: "Old Yao, don't think too much, Liu Yuanjun is not a rat-bellied chicken intestine, and he will not deliberately suppress you because you are close to the cardinal, besides, the war with the Western Xia is imminent, there is a chance for you to make contributions, so why bother mediocrity." ”

"Hey, Brother Qu, don't you know, Liu Yuanjun and Liu Yanqing, Liu Fa, Liu Qi, have a good relationship, and they also have a certain relationship with the seed master, and the two brothers in the seed master also have certain contacts, the Western Xia War, whether I am Yao Pingzhong, people can still win the battle, why should I have a hot face and stick a cold ass?" Yao Pingzhong's mood was extremely low, he hated that he was born in the Western Army and could not follow the cardinal minister to the north like Xin Xingzong, and hated that the cardinal minister did not stabilize the situation in the northwest.

"Who's going to put a hot face on a cold ass?" The one who spoke was an elderly general in his sixties and seventies, with crane hair and a childish face, silver hair and white beard, who looked like a god, and behind the old general was a middle-aged general in his fifties, with a red face and a long beard, and then behind him were seven or eight generals in their twenties.

"It turned out that the old breed and the small breed came to visit, and I, Yao Pingzhong, was rude."

Yao Pingzhong hurriedly said to the planter, the two brothers in the planter saluted, you must know that among the generals of the Western Army, the highest threshold is the planter, for a hundred years, the planter has made great achievements, and the famous generals are like clouds. The old breed is slightly more than a prince, and the small kind is a generation of famous generals, and Liu Fa has become the troika of the Western Army.

Qu Duan also hurriedly saluted, and concisely said Yao Pingzhong's thoughts, and finally he said: "The old seed is slightly fair, you still need your help in this matter, Liu Yuanjun will definitely listen to you." ”

"How can it be so complicated, my brother Liu Xian has always been right about things and not people, as long as you can win the battle, then you are a person worthy of his respect, if you meet the Western Xia cavalry, you will be scared to pee your pants, even if you give his wife and daughter to him, it is useless." It was Liu Fa who had just come over who spoke, this generation of famous generals came over with his two sons, he admired Liu Zhenglong in his heart, if it weren't for his righteous brother, his reputation would have been in vain.

Everyone knows that Liu Fa and Liu Zhenglong are married to Jinlan, so everyone is not surprised, but everyone still maintains the necessary respect for this famous general, after all, winning the battle of Shuofang under extremely unfavorable circumstances is worthy of everyone's admiration.

The battle of Shuofang can be said to have nothing to do with Liu Fa's half a dime, it is purely Liu Zhenglong's credit, but Liu Zhenglong is a civilian official and does not need great military exploits, plus this person has never been greedy for merit, so he sent this military merit to Liu Fa's head.

At this time, Liu Yanqing, Fold Keqiu, Liu Qi and other famous generals have come over, and even the old man Yang Zhengling, who has always been low-key and terrible, has come out, this leader is basically low-key because the branches and leaves of the Yang family are withering, and many people ignore the existence of the Yang family, of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that the descendants of the Yang family are not angry, plus there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses, and there is basically no status at all.

Yang Zhengling usually doesn't interact with the outside world, but when he saw the old man's master, he still took the initiative to say: "Old man, I heard that your granddaughter is twenty-eight years old, how about marrying my grandson?" ”

The seed master was very unhappy when he heard it, he was thinking about marrying his granddaughter Zhong Ying to Liu Zhenglong as a concubine, but he didn't expect Yang Zhengling to be so ignorant of current affairs, the current Yang family is that dish, and he really takes himself seriously.

"Your grandson?" The Seed Master Dao doesn't have any concept of the family, but he just thinks that Zhong Ying is the granddaughter of the second brother's family, how can he be the master easily?

"My grandson Yang Zaixing, but a first-class general, in the future, the Yang family will rise again, and it will depend on my grandson." When mentioning his grandson Yang Zaixing, Yang Zhengling had a proud look on his face.

"Yang Zaixing? Where, let the officer see. Liu Zhenglong, who had been in the back hall, didn't plan to speak, but when he heard Yang Zaixing, he was interested in Lineng and wanted to meet Yang Zaixing, one of the two walls of the empire.

Seeing Liu Zhenglong coming, everyone saluted and said, "I've seen the county prince." ”

The worst present is also a five-grade general, the level is higher than Liu Zhenglong, although the Great Song Yangwen suppressed the martial arts, but no one can deny the fact that the six-grade is lower than the fifth-grade, at least on the surface, so in informal occasions, everyone respectfully calls Liu Zhenglong the county prince of Qinling who is the second grade, of course, the official occasion is still Liu Yuanjun.

"The generals have guarded the northwest frontier for generations, which is the cornerstone of the Great Song Dynasty, tonight, Liu wants to pay a few more toasts to you, but today it is important to talk about business, before starting, this official wants to meet Yang Zaixing, a general, I don't know if it is convenient for General Yang?"

Liu Zhenglong spoke very politely, but everyone present could hear that it was unquestionable, and there was no intention of negotiation at all, whether it was a toast or Yang Zaixing, it all had the meaning of order.

Learn literary and martial arts, and sell the emperor's family. Yang Zhengling looked directly at Yang Zaixing's glorious lintel, of course, he wanted to bring it over to serve Liu Zhenglong, the defense envoy of the Western Front, otherwise, he would not propose marriage to the breeder as soon as he came up, in fact, it doesn't matter what kind of wife Yang Zaixing marries, the key is whether he can enter Liu Zhijun's eyes.

Yang Zhengling saluted and said, "Wait a minute, the county prince will arrive later." ”

Liu Zhenglong was not in a hurry, he said with a smile: "Today is still a beautiful day, let's have a meeting in the courtyard, so that Yang Zaixing can improvise a performance of the Yang family's marksmanship." ”

Don't look at the meeting in the courtyard, but in the mansion of the defense envoy of the Western Front, the degree of secrecy is far greater than that of the secret room in the homes of ordinary wealthy families, and the members of the dragon scale have long been hidden in all corners, and they are definitely not worried that the content of the conversation will leak out.

Wang Gui is the leader of the group, the dragon scales are responsible for secrecy and security work, this guy may be born to do this material, under his leadership, the defense of dragon scales can be said to be impenetrable, and the defense level is far above the palace. And the guards of the dragon scales are pulled out at random, they are all masters of one block hundred, and a lot of kung fu is taught by Liu Zhenglong himself, after all, the building near the water has the first month, and this king of special warfare from modern times will personally teach it when he has time.

Just when everyone was drinking tea and chatting, and before the formal meeting began, a strong man who was more than two meters tall and like black charcoal strode in with a one-foot-three-foot-long overlord gun.

Yang Zhengling hurriedly stood up after seeing the black man, and when he pulled the black man to a distance of seven feet in front of Liu Zhenglong, he stopped and said: "County Prince, this is my grandson Yang Zaixing, hurry, quickly kowtow to County Prince." ”

Yang Zaixing has no official rank, he has a military position, of course he has to kowtow when he sees the county prince of the second grade, this guy doesn't know if he has too much strength, or on purpose, when he kowtows, he actually smashed the bluestone brick more than an inch thick with his forehead.

"Grass man Yang Zaixing has seen the county lord."

"I heard that more than a hundred years ago, Yang Lao Linggong claimed to be 'Yang Invincible' and a set of 'Yang Family Invincible Marksmanship' swept through Saibei, but unfortunately this official didn't have a chance to witness it, I don't know if Yang Zaixing, can you show your hand in front of this official."

The world doesn't know, but Liu Zhenglong, a top master from later generations, knows that the invincible marksmanship of the Yang family is the 'overlord gun' evolved from Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu. Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu at that time, was known as 'pulling out the mountain and covering the world' and Yang Invincible was also infinitely powerful, but unfortunately the Yang family never came out with this kind of strong man later, so that the invincible marksmanship of the Yang family gradually declined, and it was not until Yang Zaixing that it rose again and shocked the world.

(Whether Yang Zaixing is a descendant of the Yang family is originally a cloud of people, there is no historical evidence to prove it, and it is purely necessary to write a book here, so there is no need to discuss anything here.) ）

One hundred and twenty catties of overlord spear, if you don't have full strength, you can't play it, you must know that the Martial Saint Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Knife is only eighty-one catties, and the flower monk Lu Zhishen's demon slaying pestle is only sixty-two catties, which shows how powerful Yang Zaixing is.

After Yang Zaixing saluted again, he began to play the overlord gun, the gun was like a raptor, every move, every style was powerful and heavy, every move contained infinite killing opportunities, sweeping was like sweeping thousands of armies like sweeping, and stabbing was like a poisonous snake out of the hole domineering.

The people present were all fierce generals who had been killed on the battlefield for many years, and they could be said to be experts, and they secretly gave a thumbs up one by one, feeling that Yang Zaixing was indeed a rare fierce general.

Yang Zaixing's mighty domineering, Gao Pet's flexibility, what kind of dragon and tiger fight will appear when these two guns together, at this time, Liu Zhenglong already has an idea, he is ready to form an army that has been trapped, named 'Terror Knights' The whole army is all black armor, black war horses, black weapons, wearing devil masks, as heavy cavalry built with heavy money, and will be used to fight against the Western Xia Iron Harrier, the Liao State Iron Forest Army, and the Jin State Iron Futu in the future. Obviously, this Yang Zaixing is very suitable, but now that he has not made an inch, it is not suitable to hand over such a heavy task to him.

"Very good, Yang Zaixing will stay in the Longxiang Army in the future, from the captain of the seventh rank of Yilu, to the right martial artist. In the future, there will be a reward for killing the enemy on the battlefield. ”

As soon as it came up, it was from the seventh grade, on the surface, it seemed to give Yang Zhengling enough face to the old general, but in fact, Liu Zhenglong loved talent, hoping not to bury Yang Zaixing.

Yang Zaixing thanked him and went down.

Liu Zhenglong saw that the time was almost up, so he said with a smile: "Raising soldiers for a thousand days is used for a while." This time, we are going to fight a battle to defeat the arrogance of the Western Xia cavalry, this official believes that the Western Xia cavalry into the Xihe Road is known to you, but there is no military order can not fight back, now this official on behalf of the imperial court announced, the next battle, to destroy the Western Xia Jin King Richard brother, I don't know if the generals have confidence. ”

Is it arrogant, or arrogant, as soon as it comes up, it is necessary to destroy Brother Richard, the god of war in Western Xia, not to defeat it, but to eliminate it directly, this is not an ordinary battle, every general present has no certainty of victory against Brother Richard, even Liu Fa, the god of war in the northwest, is also open against Brother Richard, and there is no certainty of defeating the other party, as for eliminating the other party, it is unthinkable.

If Tong Guan said this, I am afraid that every general present would not disdain it, but this was said by Liu Zhenglong, this is a master of using troops who has experienced the battle of Shuofang, everyone does not dare to speculate, and of course no one dares to fight.

Your uncle, Liu Zhenglong scolded in his heart, it seems that these guys were scared by Brother Richard, and they didn't even have the courage to shout slogans. The look of disappointment was immediately revealed, he was completely disappointed in the Western Army, known as the strongest Western Army in the Great Song Dynasty against the Western Xia, there was no certainty of victory, how could he face off against the Jin Iron Cavalry, which was known as 'the Jin people are not more than 10,000, and the 10,000 are invincible'?

Facts have proved that the Western Army was defeated in the face of the invincible Jin State Iron Cavalry, the Seed Master Dao was killed in battle, Yao Pingzhong was beaten far away from Sichuan and became a monk, as for Liu Qi, Liu Yanqing was also killed in battle, Zhe Keqiu surrendered, Qu Duan was killed, as for the Yang family, there is no record, Liu Fa has long died in the Battle of Shuofang, and he can not even have the opportunity to touch the Jin State Iron Cavalry. In the Battle of Fuping, hundreds of thousands of Western troops were killed, and finally the Western Army became a historical ranking, and the so-called brave and good fighting became a joke.

The Lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the Lord is humiliated by the death of the ministers.

When he saw Liu Zhenglong's face full of disappointment, Liu Fa stubbornly said: "Liu is willing to lead the team to fight Brother Richard." ”

Seeing that Liu Fa was reluctant to face the battle, the cultivator Dao's face couldn't hold back, and the old man said: "Although the old man is nearly seventy years old, as long as the envoy gives an order, I am willing to go on the expedition." ”

The seed master knew that his brother was provoking himself, but his brother had already expressed his position, how could he be a turtle with a shrunken head? He reluctantly asked for battle.

Liu Zhongwu opened his mouth, but finally did not speak, he was really unwilling to take risks.

Zhe Keqiu was reluctant to speak, but thinking about his daughter Zheyue Xian, he finally took the initiative to stand up and said: "Please rest assured that the 30,000 iron horsemen of the Zhe family will definitely charge at the front line, and they will never embarrass the envoy." ”

Speaking of which, no one has the courage to speak the bold words of defeating the Jin King Richard. Liu Zhenglong glared at Qu Duan, which means that the Western Xia Iron Cavalry is wreaking havoc on Xihe Road, plundering, and you don't even have the courage to take revenge.

The old man Yang Zhengling didn't know if he was old and confused, or in order to create an opportunity for his grandson, he blushed and said with a thick neck: "The Yang family has 10,000 sons, and they are willing to splash blood on the battlefield and fight to the death with Brother Richard." ”

Liu Zhenglong waved his hand and said: "It is said that the Western Army is the most elite army in the Great Song Dynasty and the strongest team in combat effectiveness, hehe." ”

This hehe, as if two slaps were slapped heavily on the faces of the generals present, one by one was so ashamed that his face was flushed, but no one had the courage to refute.

It's not that these generals are of bad race, it's really not a siege war, it's not a siege war, it's not a defense war, it's an encounter in the strict sense, and the odds of winning are very small when the infantry fights against the Western Xia cavalry, and it's not easy to annihilate it, no one wants to risk their own reputation, and no one wants to play this game with the lives of their soldiers.

"This time, to exterminate Brother Richard, the official himself led the expedition, by 10,000 Long Xiang army, 20,000 forbidden troops and 10,000 cavalry of the Zhejia army to form the front army, General Liu Fa led the army of 10,000, Liu Yanqing led the army of 10,000 for the left army, the division led the army of 10,000, the Yang family sent 10,000 troops for the right army, Qu Duan led the army of 10,000, and Liu Qi sent 10,000 troops for the rear army. In this battle, the front army will fight, the left army, the right army, and the rear army will just wave their flags and shout to block the Western Xia reinforcements. After this war, if you can't take the head of Brother Richard, the king of Jin, the official is willing to ask the court to plead guilty, and ask the court to cut off my head. Okay, let's talk about it today, everyone rests separately, and one more day, Baihualou will not return if he is not drunk. ”

Liu Zhenglong also ignored the generals and walked away.

These old army leaders were dumbfounded, whether this young Western Front defense envoy was young and ignorant, arrogant, or confident, strategizing.

After pondering for a long time, Liu Fa said: "In the battle of Shuofang, I was ambushed, and the whole army could be wiped out at any time. If there is anyone in this V world who can defeat Brother Richard, the king of Jin, it must be Liu Yuanjun. ”

Since Liu Fa didn't hide anything, Liu Zhongwu was unwilling to be silent, he coughed lightly a few times and said: "The battle of Zhuo Luonan's military division is a child leading the army, but this battle was also planned by Liu Yuanjun, he doesn't need military merits, so military merits fell to my son." ”

Obviously, when the troops were arranged before, Liu Zhenglong deliberately ignored Liu Zhongwu, which was obviously dissatisfied with him, and at this time, if he didn't come out to speak, then Liu Zhongwu would be completely abandoned.

At this time, Zhu Wu, the Shenji Military Master who had been in the back hall, came out, and he said with a smile: "Lord Liu wants to give the opportunity to make contributions to the Western Army, but you are frightened by Brother Richard, the King of Jin. It doesn't matter, Lord Liu will definitely destroy Brother Richard this time, and when the time comes, I hope you don't let the remnants of the Western Xia army escape, as for the military merits, it is still yours. It's just that."

This is just that everyone's hearts are in their throats, and Zhu Wu continued: "Lord Liu Zhongwu, your army is responsible for picking up the leaks, if Brother Richard is defeated and escapes, it will be a shame for the entire Western Army, and your fate is self-evident." ”

It's all up to this, and everyone has nothing to fear, and it is Liu Zhijun who has no command and leads the martial arts, and it is the credit of the entire Western Army to win, so everyone is holding back their strength to take down Brother Richard, the king of the Western Xia and Jin Dynasty.
