"Do you think these two will work?" After Tian Boping and Sima Rui went out, Zhang Shaohua asked Tian Shaofu.

"Nothing." Tian Shaotu smiled, "I think that Tian Boping is honest, but Sima Rui is really a little wrong as Haoxuan said, and I think he is quite crazy." ”

"Heh, what is he crazy about." Zhang Shaohua sneered, "If he dares to play tricks with us, I will chop him up immediately, anyway, he is a capital crime." ”

"The two marquis, since this is the case, it is better to let them guard Youzhou City tomorrow." Wei Chuan proposed, "If you follow us to the battlefield, if something happens at that time, it will be too late." ”

Zhang Shaohua looked at Tian Shaotu and wanted to know his opinion. Tian Shaotu thought for a while and said, "No, let's let our own people come to defend the city, so that I can rest assured." Shaohua, as the generalissimo of the expedition to the east, had the right to mobilize the general army of Yanyun and his subordinates. Just let him come along, don't worry, everyone will be cautious then. After speaking, he called a commander of the Black Feather Army again, "Jiang Xing, I will leave you with 3,000 soldiers to defend the city, do you have any objections?" ”

"Yes, the last general commands." Jiang Xing replied respectfully.

"In addition, sending someone to Ruzhou to deliver a message, so that Lao Wang can cross the Gu River tomorrow and fight Danzhou, and divide our troops into two ways, which will also help distract the attention of the Bohai Navy and indirectly share our pressure. After we take the entire territory of Youzhou, we will attack from the north and south with Lao Wang and capture Shunzhou in one fell swoop. Tian Shaotu left the sand table, walked to the map, pointed to the mountains and rivers above and said to everyone.

"Yes, I'll send a herald." Weichuan Road.

Wei Chuan had just taken two steps when he saw a Black Feather Army scout running into the lobby, so he stopped and waited to hear the news brought by the scout.

"Report!" The scout reported, "Marshal Qiyu, the scouts from the front have reported that this morning Jizhou dispatched 80,000 troops, of which about 30,000 went west, led by Niu Huaping, the commander of the Bohai Navy, and another 50,000 to the south, led by Shi Mu, the marshal of the Bohai Navy. ”

After hearing the news, the whole room frowned, and everyone began to analyze and discuss in a low voice, "Look at this direction, Shi Mu Lao'er wants to go to Ningzhou." "Well, that's good. But there are still 30,000 people who should be coming towards us. "Then for sure, we bullied other people's sons, and when we were fathers, we naturally sent someone to take revenge." "It's a pity that the old guy didn't come, otherwise he would have served a pot to his father and son." ……

"Revisit." Zhang Shaohua said to the scout.

"No!" The scout hurriedly retreated.

After the scouts left, the generals also quieted down, waiting for Zhang Shaohua or Tian Shaotu's orders and arrangements. Zhang Shaohua looked around and was very pleased, because he saw a pair of confident and fiery eyes with a strong will.

"Who's going?" The corners of Zhang Shaohua's mouth rose, smiled slightly, and asked calmly.

The scene instantly boiled again, and I don't know how many voices "The end will go!" Ringing in each other's ears.

Jiang Xing wants to stay in Youzhou, Wei Chuan has to follow me to attack Liaoxi County, and Sima Rui's identity is unknown, and he can't let him go. Zhang Shaohua screened the generals one by one in his heart, and finally made a decision. "Bai Shan, Zhao Jinnian listen to orders." Zhang Shaohua said.

"The last general!" The two stepped forward and hugged their fists. This Baishan and Zhao Jinnian are also the two commanders of the Black Feather Army, and the two of them have also cooperated for many years, and they are stationed in Linyu Pass with the Xie brothers in rotation all the year round, and they are very familiar with the coastal area of Eastern Xinjiang, so it is most suitable to send them this time.

"Order the two of you to order 10,000 troops and go to Ningzhou immediately. Be sure to arrive before Shi Mu. At the same time, I passed the order and asked Tian Boping to lead his troops to go together. You must be tenacious and persistent, people are in the city! Zhang Shaohua ordered. Fortunately, Tian Boping's Sima Rui brought 40,000 soldiers, otherwise he would not have dared to free up so many manpower today. Thirty thousand soldiers plus thousands of soldiers defending the city in Ningzhou should be enough, he calculated in his heart.

"The last general commands." Bai Shan and Zhao Jinnian said. After saying that, he left the lobby and went to the barracks.

The sky is gradually sinking, compared with the past, today's sky seems to be darker earlier, but after a while, I saw the fluttering white sprinkled falling, this is the first snow that the Black Feather Army encountered after coming to the border pass.

The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and in the blink of an eye, the ground was covered. Zhang Shaohua tossed and turned in the room, and couldn't sleep, so he went out of the big tent, thinking about walking around casually and breathing.

Stepping on the snow, there was a creaking sound from the soles of the boots. Before I knew it, I was walking to the stable. Zhang Shaohua simply walked towards the manger of the jade unicorn. When the jade unicorn saw the master coming, he meekly rubbed his head against Zhang Shaohua's palm.

"You're not cold." Zhang Shaohua touched the horse face of the jade unicorn and said.

"Wow, when the battle is over tomorrow, I'll have to brush it up for you." The snowflakes fell on the jade unicorn's body, melted by the temperature of Zhang Shaohua's palm, Zhang Shaohua pinched his fingers and rubbed them, feeling a little sticky, "I don't know if it snowed in Chang'an." ”

"Do you want Xin'er?" Zhang Shaohua asked suddenly, and he couldn't tell whether he was asking himself or the Jade Qilin.

"Anyway, I think you should think about it too, right?" He asked himself and replied, even though the jade unicorn was dirty, he still caressed its mane affectionately.

"It all shows that the moon is thousands of miles away, you look at the moon in the sky, it seems that you can indeed feel her real thoughts." Zhang Shaohua sneered.

I envy this snow, this moonlight. It falls on your shoulders and still wraps its arms around you. Zhang Shaohua looked at the moon, and his eyes seemed to be looking at Xin'er, warm and warm.

"You say, does she know we're thinking about her?" Zhang Shaohua then asked, "I must know." ”

"Do you feel that this expedition is different from the previous feeling, in the past, I only had a marriage contract with Xin'er, but now I have become a relative. Anyway, I feel like I miss her many times more all at once. Zhang Shaohua continued to talk to himself.

"It's been more than a month since I came out of the house, and I don't know how she is doing." Zhang Shaohua grabbed a handful of forage from the manger and fed it to the jade unicorn. The jade unicorn was quietly eating grass, and Zhang Shaohua watched it eat quietly. After a while, he spoke again, "Old man, in fact, I came to you tonight because I was inexplicably panicked, and it was a little late, and I didn't want to disturb the young apprentice, so I could only come and talk to you." ”

"It's much better now, after so many years, I'm always very down-to-earth with you." Zhang Shaohua breathed a long sigh of relief and patted the sturdy back of the jade unicorn, "As soon as the day dawns, we will go to the battlefield again." After feeding the last bunch of grass in his hand to the mouth of the jade unicorn, Zhang Shaohua looked at his good partner and left backwards, "Have a good rest, you will work hard tomorrow, but you have to help me well." ”

The jade qilin looked at Zhang Shaohua and shook his head, probably indicating that he understood. Zhang Shaohua smiled, turned around and walked back in the direction he came.
