On December 15, Zhao Chen returned to Hanzhong!

Now everything is normal in Hanzhong, after several years of development, the people of Hanzhong live and work in peace and contentment, and the economy of Hanzhong is thriving! Zhao Chen did not alarm the ordinary people of Hanzhong, he entered Hanzhong City in the middle of the night and came to the palace! Here, he saw Zhiyueru, but Zhiyueru was already asleep, Zhao Chen did not alarm Zhiyueru, the second morning, the sky was not yet bright, Zhao Chen had already left the palace and headed north! When Zhiyueru woke up, she found that the clothes she had made for Zhao Chen had disappeared, and a passage from Zhao Chen was left on the table, so that Zhiyueru could take good care of her body!

Late at night on December 30, Zhao Chen came to Wugong County in the east of Guanshan!

The cold wind is howling, the snow is falling, Zhao Chen, Kang An and others are walking forward step by step in the dense forest! The snow was so thick that the road was very difficult, and they walked a little slowly!

At this moment, several dark shadows suddenly appeared in front of him, and a deep voice came: "Who?" ”

"Your Majesty is here!" Kang An has spoken out.

"Who?" There was an incredulous sound from the other side.

"The current Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Chen!" Zhao Chen said.

"Ahh There was an exclamation from the other side!

Soon, a person ran towards this side, this person came to Zhao Chen's side, saw Zhao Chen's face clearly, fell to his knees suddenly, and said, "It's really Your Majesty!" The last general, Liang Hao, see Your Majesty! ”

This is the young man Liang Hao who joined the forbidden army back then, and now he no longer has the youthful spirit of the beginning, he is already a standard soldier!

As Liang Hao's voice sounded, the rest of the people in the distance also ran over, and they knelt on the ground to see Zhao Chen.

"Let's get flat!" Zhao Chen said.

Liang Hao and those soldiers stood up at this time, they looked at Zhao Chen, and their eyes were full of excitement and excitement!

"Your Majesty, you're finally back! If you are not in Guanshan, it is as if we have no backbone! It's great to have you back now! Under your leadership, we can face any hardships and obstacles, and can defeat any powerful enemy! Liang Hao said excitedly.

"I'm the same, it's only with you guys that I can feel the real power! Go, take me to your barracks! Zhao Chen said.

Liang Hao nodded, and he hurriedly took Zhao Chen, Kang An and the others towards the front!

The snow in the dense forest is so thick that in some places it can even bury a person's waist! However, Liang Hao has been here for a long time, and he is very familiar with the environment here, under his leadership, Zhao Chen, Kang An and others did not fall into the snow!

All the way forward, keep seeing corpses! These corpses were all dressed as soldiers, and their bodies were covered with wounds, and some of them still had arrows on them! The snow had obscured their bodies, but they could still see how they struggled before they died!

"Your Majesty, just three days ago, there was a battle here, and the corpses of our own people have been collected and buried, and we have not had time to bury the corpses of the enemy!" Liang Hao said.

"What kind of war is it?" Zhao Chen said.

"A war with only a few dozen people! On the other side, King Kang's rebel subordinates tried to cross this forest, but were discovered by our patrolling soldiers, and a battle broke out! Liang Hao said.

"Do wars like this happen often?" Zhao Chen said.

"Yes! In the course of a year, more than three thousand soldiers of the forbidden army have died on the border! Some died fighting with King Kang's rebel subordinates, and some died fighting with the Jurchens! The enemy has been trying to sneak into us, and we have tried to sneak into them! Occasionally, there will be some small friction at the border, which will also cause a war! This is the eastern part of Shaanxi, and now there is war almost every day! In the north, the same is true of the places defended by the Huanqing Army and the Northern Shaanxi Forbidden Army! The soldiers are always vigilant and dare not relax at any moment, even if today is the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the army does not dare to relax! Last year, the Jin soldiers attacked on Chinese New Year's Eve, and no one knows if they will attack this year! Liang Hao said.

Zhao Chen nodded, when he left Guanshan that day, the situation in Guanshan was like this! Now a year later, it's still the same here! The war is still on the verge of breaking out, and the three sides are not ready, and the generals of the three parties are strictly restraining their subordinates, but even so, small-scale wars continue to occur!

"Your Majesty, be careful, there are traps here!" When walking through a clearing, Kang An said.

He jumped over the trap, and Zhao Chen, Kang An and others also jumped over!

As you move forward, you get closer and closer to the border, and the number of traps increases!

Finally, a camp appeared in the woods ahead! They had just arrived at the camp and someone noticed it right away!

"Your Majesty is back!" Liang Hao strode over and said to the soldiers standing sentry!

"What? Your Majesty? The soldiers had an expression of disbelief and surprise on their faces!

They rushed to Zhao Chen's front one after another to meet Zhao Chen!

The noisy sound here woke up the rest of the soldiers in the camp one after another, and the rest of the soldiers rushed out, and when they saw Zhao Chen, they were also surprised!

After a while, the earth-shattering sound of hooray rang out!

In the middle of the night, countless snow was shaken down by the sound, and countless sleeping wild birds fluttered their wings and went away in horror!

On the opposite side of the camp, five miles away, there was a camp of King Kang's army! An earth-shattering sound of hooray was heard, and everyone in the camp was awakened! King Kang's soldiers also climbed up one after another, looking at the other side in dismay!

"What are they doing in the middle of the night?"

"I heard hooray! Don't...... Could it be that Emperor Xuanwu has arrived? ”

"Oh my God! It seems to be true! We're going to get the word out right away! ”

King Kang's camp was shocked, someone had already gone to report to the chief, and someone walked through the forest towards Zhongnan Mountain, Chang'an and other places, not to mention it!

******

The first day of the first lunar month has arrived, and it is now the fifth year of Xuanwu!

Zhao Chen, Kang An and others have come to Wugong County at this moment!

After a year of construction, Wugong County is also very different from before, and the city walls have been fully repaired! In addition to the city walls, the dilapidated houses in the county town have also been restored! Most of the people living in this county town are now soldiers, and there are countless weapons to defend the city! In addition, there are already two more auxiliary cities outside Wugong County, and those two auxiliary cities and Wugong County are in a triangular opposite, supporting each other and supporting each other, and most of the people living inside are soldiers!

In addition to these, there are countless camp outposts, large and small fortresses around Wugong County! To the west of Wugong County are countless villages and towns, all of which are inhabited by soldiers from the Production and Construction Corps, and they can also take weapons to the battlefield when necessary!

There are more than 100,000 regular troops gathered here, and more than 200,000 can be called the production and construction corps of the militia! Now here is a purely military zone! After a year of construction, the defense here has been extremely strong, according to the planning of Yue Fei, Yu Yunwen, Qu Duan and others, this place must be able to resist the sudden large-scale attack of King Kang and Jurchen, until the arrival of the Northern Shaanxi Forbidden Army, Jingyuan Army, and Huanqing Army!

Zhao Chen was standing on the city wall at the moment to watch the surrounding construction, Yue Fei, Wang Shu, Yu Yunwen, Qu Duan, Wang De and others were all standing behind him!

"When I was in Sichuan and Shu, I kept receiving news from Guan Shaanxi! I heard that the staff headquarters has been built very well, and I will take a look at it later! Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, now the staff of the General Staff Headquarters has reached nearly two thousand! We have transferred countless people with combat experience, logistics experience, and intelligence experience from the Forbidden Army, the Huanqing Army, the Northern Shaanxi Forbidden Army, and the Jingyuan Army into the Operations Department, Logistics Department, and Intelligence Department! Since the second half of last year, everything has been on the right track at the General Staff Headquarters! In addition, there are also staff departments in various armies, but the staff departments of various armies do not involve logistics, but only operations and intelligence! On the one hand, the general staff of each army assists the generals, and on the other hand, they must also carry out the orders of the staff headquarters! Yu Yunwen said.

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "I'll take a good look at the information later, and let's discuss together when the big war will really come!" ”

Yu Yunwen said: "Your Majesty, we just got a piece of information recently, which is very unfavorable to us!" ”

Zhao Chen said: "Is it news from the north?" I've already received your information on the road! ”

Yu Yunwen nodded and said, "We are in danger of being attacked by three parties!" ”

Say:

Have a great weekend everyone
