The march of the army is imminent, and in the five cities dominated by the jade guard, the Northern Expeditionary Army after rectification, as well as the people in the rivers and lakes who are busy collecting the battlefield, began to move towards the west of the northern Xinjiang, and what they are about to face will be a more brutal war.

Today's Northern Expedition army, the morale of the army is shocked, and the morale is like a rainbow, after all, the five cities on the side of King Changwu can be easily taken without much effort.

At this moment, the Tidi people, in the hearts of these fledgling young soldiers, and those who love to tout the mouths of the rivers and lakes, have already become paper tigers.

There are only a few veterans, from the looks of Lu Jue and other generals, they found clues.

On the eve of the departure of the whole army, on the tower of the jade guard, two figures, an old man and a young man, held a halberd and chatted with each other.

"Brother Liu, it's not particularly scary to think of a war."

The little soldier, who was only about seventeen or eighteen years old, had a childish face that had not subsided, full of excitement, and sighed at the veteran who was dozing off on the side.

In the past few days, the people in the city have praised and complimented them, the soldiers of the Northern Expedition, and even treated them like life-saving benefactors and parents again.

made this Niu Ergou, who was only seventeen or eighteen years old, begin to be a little proud.

Although he has not been to the front line, he still can't resist the pride of being a member of the army.

On the other hand, the veteran whom he called Brother Liu, judging from his appearance, is definitely in his early fifties.

However, among the military commanders, they can only be called brothers, uncles or something, according to the words of the older generation, it is unlucky.

Brother Liu glanced at Niu Ergou who was on the head of Xing, and he didn't want to hit the child's excitement in his heart, but in the current situation, as a person who came over, Brother Liu felt that he still had to say a few words to the rookie in front of him.

"Ergou, for the sake of you calling me Brother Liu, I want to give you a few words."

When Niu Ergou heard this, the excitement in his heart was booming, so he hurriedly came over and said secretly, I have heard other soldiers praise Lao Liu on weekdays, saying that Lao Liu can live to this age in the army, he is experienced, and he is the only one who can survive the war.

"Hey! Brother Liu, you say. ”

Brother Liu glanced at Niu Ergou's expression, and naturally knew that he had misunderstood, but it didn't affect it, but his voice sank, and said: "Ergou, although it seems to be a big victory right now, don't take it lightly, this Tidi clan is by no means as unbearable as we have seen in a short period of time." ”

Niu Ergou was puzzled, and he didn't know why Brother Liu wanted to say such words that affected the morale of the army.

"Look at you wood!"

Brother Liu saw that he didn't understand what Niu Ergou said this, so he immediately scolded angrily, and then said in a lower voice.

"According to my experience, in the war ahead, if you still want this little life, follow me to stay in the team behind, otherwise, if you want me to help you collect the body, I am afraid that you will not be able to find it completely."

Brother Liu said this, and a touch of frost was already flowing from his eyes.

"No... No way? ”

Niu Ergou felt a chill in his heart when Brother Liu said this, and after swallowing his saliva, he stumbled and asked: "However, the army encourages combat exploits, if you don't charge bravely, won't there be no way out in this life?" My mother still expects me to get ahead and marry a wife in the future..."

Without waiting for Niu Ergou to finish his vague words in his mouth, Brother Liu directly interrupted him with a cold snort.

"Hmph, marry a daughter-in-law? Ahead? If the millions of soldiers in this army win, how many of them will be able to return to their hometown in the end? This one wins, what about the next time? In the army, your fate is determined by heaven, if you don't protect your life, how can you marry a daughter-in-law? ”

When Niu Ergou heard this, he turned his head to look at Lao Liu's gaze faintly, and seemed to understand something.

The two people at the head of the city finally stood back at their posts in the cold wind and snow, but now their state of mind is very different from before.

The young and immature Niu Ergou looked pensive, his eyes looked to the west from time to time, and the upcoming battlefield seemed to be a little frightened from this moment.

Lao Liu, on the other hand, looked at the snowfall in the sky, sighed softly, and in his somewhat cloudy eyes, he seemed to think of the veteran who had told him these words.

At the same time, Tihijah, who was deep in the dungeon, naturally heard the sounds of disturbance through the narrow skylight, and suddenly, Tihijah got up from the haystack on the ground.

"It's not going to be like that."

Tihijah suddenly realized that he was a little flustered.

Because she knew that everything at the moment was all blocked on Lu Jue's body, if Lu Jue really led the army all the way to the west, then she and him might never see each other again in the future.

That means that his life is coming to an end.

Whatever the Tidi do in the city, they will inevitably take revenge on themselves, a false prince with Tidi blood.

"Lu Jue, you must be cautious."

At this moment, Ti Xijie hoped that Lu Jue would not be too confident, after all, before she was tied up by Caomutang, the Tidi clan also understood more or less about the dispatch of the army.

Now the cities in the east of Northern Xinjiang have been recovered, although I don't know why the Northern Expeditionary Army was able to recover the cities so easily, but the five cities in the central and western parts of Northern Xinjiang are by no means easy places to take.

Just as Tihijay's heart was tossing, there was a noise at the door of the dungeon.

Tihija couldn't help but smile at the corners of his mouth, and hurriedly approached the iron prison and stretched out his head to look.

"Looks like you can't wait."

Lu Jue led Xiao Han, who looked pensive, and Zheng Tianlan walked in together.

In the face of Lu Jue's slightly sarcastic words, Ti Xijie grinned, but replied as if quibble: "It's not that I really can't let go of life and death, I just feel that it's not worth it, so I stay here like this, and I'm really unwilling to do it!" ”

While speaking, Lu Jue and the three of them had already walked outside Ti Xijie's cage, Xiao Han obviously still had a grudge against the fake prince in front of him, and opened his mouth and whispered beside Lu Jue to persuade again: "Young General, the last general still hopes that you can think twice." ”

Lu Jue just smiled lightly, and did not answer Xiao Han directly, nor did he open the door to Ti Xijie, but asked again:

"Do you know why when our army arrived, the soldiers of the Tidi tribe withdrew one after another?"

When Tixijie heard Lu Jue say this, he frowned and asked rhetorically.

"Withdraw troops? As for the tactics of the Tidi tribe, the last thing I knew was before I was captured by Caomutang, and after I came out of the Beichang Palace, at that time, I talked to Wei Siyuan, he obstructed the Northern Expeditionary army, and the Tidi tribe tried to use this time to strengthen the garrison in the city. ”
