Dou Hongxian was on the roof, and what she saw and heard made her feel relieved and sad, hated and angry, because her biological father, the Emperor of Great Xia, had just died on the battlefield, and he didn't even bring back the bones, and something that went against the norm happened in the palace.

One is a former sworn brother, the other is a queen, and the brother-in-law and sister-in-law actually did such a thing in the harem.

Dou Hongxian was not mentally prepared, so she almost vomited blood in anger, and wanted to go down directly and ask the two of them how to be worthy of her dead father.

However, she hesitated, the Xia Kingdom was already in danger, and its demise was imminent, offending Liu Heimin would not be beneficial to Great Xia. And it will make the queen mother embarrassed.

Dou Hongxian thought about it, returned to his palace with a blue face, and couldn't sleep all night.

In the end, she made a decision to leave Changle Palace and leave the Great Xia Kingdom!

Her father is dead, she is no longer a princess, and there is no heir to inherit the throne, so the Xia Kingdom exists in name only, and even the queen has been humiliated by people entering the palace, maybe the next one will be the princess.

This Xia country has no meaning of existence, even if Liu Heimin controls it, it is still the original team, so it is likely that the country name will have to be changed.

Dou Hongxian sneered, and decided to stay by herself, and it was completely unnecessary to worry about Xia Guo, but the revenge of killing her father was not shared, and she couldn't just give up.

"Kill Luo Cheng, kill Emperor Dahua!" Dou Hongxian currently has only one belief in her heart, Cao's doing such a thing made her unacceptable, she felt that she had betrayed her dead father, and she didn't regard her as a relative, so she left decisively and wanted to assassinate Luo Cheng alone.

Dou Hongxian left a letter to Empress Cao, not mentioning last night's incident, but saying that he decided to go back to the mountain to continue his studies, and one day go down the mountain to assassinate the king of Dahua and ask her to take care of Yunyun.

………

A few days later, the remnants of the Xia State army that went out to Xingyang broke through and rushed back to Xindu County one after another.

Among them, Xu Yuanlang, Fan Yuan, Dong Kangmai, Cao Zhan, Gao Yaxian and others all came back alive, and the rest died and surrendered, and there were only a few thousand soldiers and horses.

These people returned to Changle Palace City and brought back the news that the Dahua army was heading north. Everyone then elected Liu Heimin as the leader and commanded the overall situation.

Seeing that the situation had been completed, Liu Heimin took it upon himself to become the new king of the Xia Kingdom, but he didn't want to live in the shadow of Dou Jiande. So he proclaimed himself the king of Handong, the founding name was Tianzao, and Fan Yuan was appointed as the left servant, Dong Kangmai was the secretary of the military department, and Gao Yaxian was the right general, and all the remaining civil and military officials of Dou Jiande's Xia regime were restored to their original positions.

Although Empress Cao is no longer the queen, she still lives in the palace and maintains a high status.

After Liu Heimin tasted a mature woman of this age, he couldn't miss it, and he had to stay in Cao's dormitory all day long, and after many days of irrigation, this Cao's face was also ruddy, and he seemed to be a few years younger.

Cao Zhan is the younger brother of the Cao family, so he is still reused and made a general.

………

"Boom!"

The iron cavalry rolled, the smoke and dust rolled, and the cavalry team of the vanguard army rushed wildly and rushed into Wu'an County, which was only separated from Xindu County and Xiangguo County and Qinghe County.

The Xia army, who was defending the city on the front line, basically fled in despair, and did not dare to directly attack it!

There were many troops surrendered along the way, and many local rebel troops joined the Dahua army, but most of them were rabble.

Luo Zhaoyun did not exclude it, the main army of 100,000 was behind, and the 50,000 vanguard army was in front, and then the newly joined rabble was reorganized and handed over to Xu Shiji to lead, and they were sent to fight with the Xia army first, attack the city, and use it as a training and run-in army.

Xu Shiji is also very talented in military affairs, even if the rabble, plus the remnants of the Wagang army, are reorganized together, reaching forty or fifty thousand people, getting elite weapons, neat clothing, and a new look of the army, coupled with a strict military discipline system, and stepping up training every day, Xu Shiji plans to temper the new army as soon as possible and become a regular army under his command, so that the Dahua monarchs and ministers can be impressed.

In the land of Hebei, there are few mountains and rivers, there are many plains, the iron cavalry swept quickly, the speed was extremely fast, and the cities along the way fell without a fight, and it was difficult to stop its sharp spirit.

This speed of rapid advance made Liu Heimin restless, and he decided to lead his troops to Julu and block Dahua's army in Xiangguo County.

This time, Liu Heimin gathered 60,000 horses, plus tens of thousands of strong men captured from Hebei, and more than 100,000 troops, stationed in Julu City, set up a defensive line, and blocked the Dahua army from going north.

Hou Junji, leading the deputy generals Mai Zhongcai and He Ruohuaikuo, led 50,000 elite soldiers to smash the camp outside Julu City.

And Xu Shiji, who brought deputy generals Pei Xingyan, Niu Jinda, Jia Xiong and others, led an army of 50,000 to attack Julu City.

Luo Zhaoyun sat in the Chinese army, standing a few miles away, observing and occupying, and the 100,000 army stopped and settled, and was not in a hurry to send it, because this was the most elite army, and it was to be left to Li Tang. Attacking Jinyang, there will be a fierce battle, and the main force cannot be sent to fight hard too early, it is easy to get tired from the battle!

Xue Wancheng, Shi Danai, Qin Qiong, Cheng Zhijie, Luo Shixin, Liu Wujian, Zhou Zhongyin and others were all idle and responsible for the daily training of soldiers and horses, although they were also eager to fight, but without His Majesty's order, they could only wait here.

"Array—"

To the east of Julu City, is the Hebei military camp, in front of the Yuanmen, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses lined up, led by Cao Zhan, and Hou Junji's soldiers and horses confronted.

The Dahua army formed a phalanx, and the infantry with bows and crossbows stood in three rows in front of the military formation, but when the first row was fired, the last two rows pulled the strings and set up the arrows, and the three rows of crossbowmen took turns to shoot, and the dense lethality on the battlefield was the most deadly.

Behind the crossbowmen were dozens of rows of iron-mounted phalanxes, armed with machetes or halberds. Behind the iron cavalry were heavy armored infantry, wearing thick armor, armed with spears and knives, and were the main force in the confrontation between the two armies.

When Cao Zhan saw such an elite enemy army, his heart was somewhat bottomless, and he was a little cold.

At this moment, under the giant deer city, it had already begun to attack.

The military order was like a mountain, and suddenly the horns sounded in unison, the thunder and drums shook the sky, the sound of killing was everywhere, and the arrows and feathers in the sky were like locusts, shooting at each other.

Under the attack of rolling logs, stones, boiling water, etc., one after another fell to the top, and a battle of Julu City was fiercely launched.
