"Guys, please get up!"

The corners of Shaowu Hengyong's mouth raised, and he smiled deeply, and the kneeling ministers heard Shaowu Hengyong's words, and their hearts were not relieved, and they all stood up one after another, including Liu Lian, who had a cold face on the side.

The ground is full of bloodstains, like rain, now it is hot, there is already some sour smell in the air, the corpses all over the city, no one has to clean it up, stepping on countless corpses, Shaowu Hengyong finally entered the imperial palace.

"Little brother, and the concubine Niangniang, it's been a long time!"

In the imperial palace, Li Qingtong's mother and son were full of fear, looking at Shaowu Hengyong in front of them, they couldn't say a word, they should come, they will always come, everything can't escape.

Shaowu Hengyong looked at this three-year-old little brother, grinned, and then strode towards him, at this moment, Li Qingtong finally gritted his teeth and hissed: "Don't come here, he is only three years old, what's the matter, you are coming at me!" ”

Li Qingtong knows Shaowu Hengyong's character very well, and she knows that the person in front of her dares to kill the king and kill his father, not to mention a so-called half-brother.

"Huh!"

After being silent for a long time, Shaowu Hengyong finally smiled, he looked at this half-brother with a frightened face, and slowly squatted down, he looked at this familiar face, his face was very complicated, and after a long time, he said again: "Guifei Niangniang, I want to know, what you know, this is the only reason for him to live!" ”

He is not a ruthless person, but he still has some questions that he wants to know, such as Xuanyi Mansion!

Li Qingtong gritted his teeth, before he could say anything, Shaowu Hengyong took another step closer to her son, at this moment, Li Qingtong finally couldn't help but kneel, and then began to kowtow violently: "His Royal Highness the Prince, I know you want to know about Xuanyi Mansion, but except for my sister, there is really no one who knows, and the first king didn't say it to me, I really don't know, you don't hurt Hengwen, he is innocent, he is your brother!" ”

"Brother......

Shaowu Hengyong suddenly raised his head, his eyes were empty, and after a long time, he finally let out a long sigh, and then stopped looking at Li Qingtong's mother and son, and strode out of the palace.

A few months later, the Imperial Palace, Fengtian Palace!

On the dragon chair, Shaowu Hengyong is full of slaughter, the top of all people, one person in heaven and earth, and the world is surging for his joy and anger, this is the emperor, sitting on the peak of supreme power, looking down on all living beings in the world like a god.

"Zhong Aiqing, today I have a court meeting, there is something to discuss with you Aiqing......" Shaowu Hengyong slowly glanced around, his eyes were like knives, and he looked at the ministers in the palace.

The ministers didn't speak, but quietly looked at Shaowu Hengyong.

Shaowu Hengyong paused, looked at the ministers, and said slowly: "Yesterday, the Northern Army reported that the Northwest Dog Rong Barbarian Cavalry went to Ganliufa Six Counties, Longyou and Xihezhou are already in the bag of the barbarian cavalry, and now the barbarian cavalry has sent troops to Shuitian County......"

As soon as this remark came out, the whole house was shocked. The ministers who can rank in the subordinate class are naturally not simple people, and before Shaowu Hengyong's words were finished, they immediately realized that the disaster of Great Xia was coming.

Now that Great Xia has just experienced civil strife, it has not yet stabilized, and more importantly, in the northwest, there has just been an earth dragon turning over, and it is the time when a hundred ruins are waiting to be rebuilt.

For a while, the ministers were discussing, and a quiet whisper sounded in the Golden Palace, buzzing endlessly. Shaowu Hengyong looked at these ministers who always talked about loyalty and patriotism, and couldn't help but sigh softly. The national disaster is coming, and these "loyal and patriotic" people don't even have a single person who comes out to make ideas and suggestions?

Shaowu Hengyong cleared his throat, suddenly stood up from the dragon chair, looked solemn, and said in a deep voice: "...... The king of Inurong has been dissatisfied with the king for many years, and often plunders the cities and people in my Great Xia, and the people are miserable. I have decided that starting next month, I will send troops to the northwest in Great Xia, and vow to drive the barbarian cavalry back to the north of Wolf Mountain! ”

The ministers were in an uproar when they heard this, they didn't react at all, they didn't even know what to take to fight with the barbarians, and some officials wanted to say something, seeing Shaowu Hengyong's face full of murderous intent, all the words of advice could only be suppressed in their hearts.

Shaowu Hengyong saw that there was no objection, he was still very satisfied, and seeing that there was still a commotion below, he cleared his throat, and then smiled: "...... Therefore, today I will discuss with you Aiqing, who can be the commander of the Northern Expedition? ”

"Who can be the commander of the Northern Expedition?" On the Fengtian Temple. Shaowu Hengyong's words came out, and all the ministers were silent. Northern Expedition, what a distant word, decades after the founding of Great Xia, how could he have taken the initiative to go north to conquer the grassland?

Looted by the dog Rong barbarian cavalry every year, defeated every year, the army retreated again and again, no matter how strong the city, it could not stop the iron hooves of the dog Rong barbarian horse, the dog Rong barbarian riding like a hunt, the people of Daxia as livestock, snatched without mercy, or slaughtered, the border city has left how many innocent people's bloodstains, how many parents, wives, sons and daughters are separated and died, the long border of Daxia, every inch of rivers and mountains and an inch of blood, the continuous invasion of foreign races for a hundred years, has made this nation more and more suffering.

Finally, one day, Daxia will be able to puff up his chest and draw out the sword that has not been unsheathed for a long time. took the initiative to meet the cold blade of the invader, and Shaowu Hengyong's decision made the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu feel agitated. In the past, no matter what the ministers had for what their considerations, they either supported or opposed the war with the dog Rong, but today, Shaowu Hengyong issued a holy decree, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty came out to oppose Shaowu Hengyong's decision. Great Xia has been humiliated for too long, so long that everyone seems to have become numb to this kind of bullying days, since the emperor has made this decision, how can the ministers oppose it again?

However, when Shaowu Hengyong asked who could be the chief general of the Northern Expedition, all the ministers honestly shut their mouths, and no one spoke.

This is an unpredictable war, everyone knows the danger in between, in the generation of Shaowu Hengyong's great-grandfather, he Da Chu is extremely prosperous, all the great-grandfathers sent troops to the northwest, drove the dog Rong out of the north of Wolf Mountain, leaving an immortal legend, and since that day, the Great Chu is also extremely decayed, all of which gave Shao Wuqing a chance, now although the strength of the dog Rong is not as good as before, but the tiger is a tiger after all, even if it is injured, its fighting spirit is still high, and will not allow a rabbit to bully it, If this war is won, maybe it will be promoted to the rank of knight and forever recorded in history, but what if you lose it? Who will bear the consequences of losing? Who would dare to rashly lead the troops?

In the Golden Palace, the eyes of all the civil servants were on the generals standing on the right. The generals gritted their teeth one after another, their faces turned red, their fists clenched tightly, and then released, almost wanting to go out of the squad to lead the troops.

But after thinking about it, I couldn't help but move after all. This war is too important for Great Xia, they don't dare to take this risk, personal life and death honor and disgrace fall second, if they lose this war under their own command, there will be no soldiers available in Great Xia, and the iron cavalry of the dog Rong can easily drive straight in, easily occupy the whole world, the generals are willing to sacrifice their lives for the country, but they can't afford the infamy of sinners through the ages, they can't afford to lose.

"Hmph, no one dares to stand up and fight for Great Xia and the people of the world?"

Shaowu Hengyong saw that no one dared to stand up, and he began to be unhappy in his heart, his father could bear it, but he couldn't bear it, he still remembered his great-grandfather's bold words on Wolf Mountain.

The three-foot green front is thousands of feet in the sky, thousands of troops and horses I move forward, the thunder is angry and the waves are shocked, and the barbarian slaves step on the nine abysses!

This bold talk on the Wolf Mountain has now turned into ashes, and the backbone of the Han family has been trampled under the feet of the brute horseman, which is tolerable, which is unbearable, this is the reason why Shaowu Hengyong sent troops.

"General Yue, General Fang, do you two dare to do it?"

He glanced at the two generals of the Xiaowu Army and the Tiance Army, his eyes were full of hope, the two looked at each other, full of bitterness, yes, they have no confidence, they really have no confidence, if this is defeated, they are really shameless to face everyone in this imperial capital, and even more shameless to face Shaowu Hengyong.

Seeing that the two of them didn't say a word, Shaowu Hengyong's face was a little unbearable, and then looked at the ministers in the palace, Shaowu Hengyong was a little disheartened, the corners of his mouth were inadvertently raised, and a wry smile flashed on his face, I don't know if it was for himself, for the world, or for this so-called world!!

Autumn is slaughtered, and the branches and leaves are withered. The drizzle floats in the air, moisturizing things silently, and the wind is full of coldness, which makes people feel desolate.

Liu Fa sat in front of the hall, staring at a plane tree in the courtyard, it had been silent for a long time, and the plane tree was even more drizzle, until dusk, bit by bit! There are many times when he is optimistic, but there are few times when he is depressed like today.

The scenes of the past are floating in my mind bit by bit, lingering. The rain fell down the eaves, and Liu Fa's eyes could see through the rain, but not through the sycamore and the wall, but his thoughts drifted far away.

The southern conquest and the northern war, the most is just fighting, there are more and more soldiers under his command, and there are more and more new faces, but those old faces are getting fewer and fewer, the big waves are sweeping the sand, and the precipitation is the essence, those who go with the wind, who dares to say that they are not the essence?

"Are you there?"

There was silence in front of the hall, Ye Zhi, Ye Luo, Nangong Zhinu, Luo Xingtian, Qingyunfei, Xin He, and An Dongye, almost all the people under Liu Fa's command were here, except for Xiong Jiajun in Hongcheng County, who was still guarding Hongcheng for Liu Fa.

"Hey, General, we're all here, just waiting for the General's words!" Qing Yunfei laughed, and then knelt down on one knee, his eyes full of joy.

Today's southwest mansion, only Liu Fa and Dali are left, as for the Mu family, they are still the Mu family, but they already belong to Dali, and the South Prison is almost Qin Tianzhao's family, Qin Tianzhao and Dali have also reached some agreements, one south and one north, to form a situation of encirclement of Liu Fa, as for Liu Fa, it is not to be outdone, in this southwest mansion, it is also a good fight, especially, with some help from the Xiao family, although it is not said to be equal to Dali, but there are also back and forth,-for-tat!

And in the war to raise the war, Liu Fa is already full-fledged, and the southwest mansion, such a small sky, can no longer accommodate him as a big dragon!

Under Zhangye City, there is a slaughter!

Above the golden water, the banner is displayed!

In the early morning, the Southern Prison Army in the city was cooking on the stove, and before the meal was eaten, the camp of the Liu Expedition Army was like a fried pot, and the soldiers and generals came out together to attack the city.

In order to cooperate with Ye Luo's attack, Zhan Wushuang sent three generals to attack the east, south, and west directions of Zhangye City, so as to play the role of attacking and confusing the enemy.

They released arrows, and the southern prison army on the city wall was not to be outdone, shooting arrows to shoot back, the arrows on both sides came and went, shuttling back and forth in the air, colliding, the momentum was quite scary, but there were few arrows that really hit the enemy.

At the same time, the north camp of the Liuhua army camp was wide open, Ye Luo rode a tall horse, and a single team galloped out of the camp, he rushed to the front, and when he arrived in front of the two armies, he restrained the war horse, pointed to the head of the city and shouted; "Are there any living people in the city? Tell you generals to get out of here and fight me! ”

Seeing the enemy scolding the formation, the Southern Prison Army at the head of the city did not dare to delay, and hurriedly ran down the city wall to report to Qin Tianzhao. After receiving the report of his subordinates, he took Xuanyuan Wu Qi to the city, raised his eyes and looked, well, the front is overwhelming with Liu Fa's army, looking at it, the crowd is surging, boundless, this must be 350,000 people, and then look at the front of the Liu Fa army, there is a horse, and a general will sit on the horse, this person is of medium height, not as strong as other generals, he looks a little weak, his face is sallow, revealing a sickly, but this person's spirit is full, his eyes are bright, and he shows off his might on the horse, From time to time, he urged the war horses to run back and forth in front of the two armies, and from time to time pointed to the head of the city and laughed a few times.

After watching it, Qin Tianzhao sneered and said; "Such a child, dare to come out and be arrogant!" As he spoke, he glanced at the general beside him, and then said, "Which general can take this kid's head back for me and hang it on the head of Zhang Ye's city!" ”

"I'll go, General, I'll take two thousand brothers out to meet the enemy."

As soon as the words fell, a general stood up impatiently, and then knelt on the ground, looking at Qin Tianzhao, his eyes full of hope.

"No!"

At this moment, another general hurriedly stopped him, since the enemy general dared to come out to scold the formation, he must have something to rely on, and there were tens of thousands of Liu Var troops behind, he was worried that he would be besieged by the enemy if he went out to meet the enemy. Qin Tianzhao saw his doubts, and said nonchalantly: "Let Zijing take a look, if he is defeated, he will return to the city!" ”

When the general named Zijing heard Qin Tianzhao's words, he smiled slightly, then nodded again, patted his chest, and said confidently: "Don't worry, I won't go deep into the enemy camp, and I only bring two thousand brothers, it's easy to retreat, you just have to wait and see!" ”

After speaking, he ignored the general's obstruction, quickly walked down the city wall, ordered two thousand soldiers, opened the city gate, and went out to meet the battle.

Cao Zijing faced Ye Luo, and the two faced each other in front of the two armies. Ye Luo looked Cao Zijing up and down, lifted the cold iron gun in his hand, pointed at Cao Zijing, and said, "Come and get your name!" ”

"Cao Zijing!" Cao Zijing replied simply.

Ye Luo sneered and said, "I haven't heard of it, it seems to be a nobody!" ”

Cao Zijing was furious when he heard this, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"Ye Luo!"

Hearing Ye Luo's words, Cao Zijing laughed, also smiled contemptuously, and then spat out: "I haven't heard of it, like a hairy boy like you, who has not dried up, you still dare to call the formation, it is really an old birthday star who eats splitting cream, and thinks that he has a long life!" ”

Ye Luo smiled slightly, glanced at Cao Zijing, lifted the silver gun, and shouted: "Cao Zijing, today is your death!" As he spoke, he slammed his feet on the horse, urging the horse to rush forward, and the spear in his hand was like a poisonous dragon, stabbing straight into Cao Zijing's throat.

Cao Zijing naturally didn't put Ye Luo in his eyes, he didn't hurry, waved the long knife in his hand, and then greeted Ye Luo, although he didn't put Ye Luo in his eyes, but this does not mean that he underestimated Ye Luo, the lion fights the rabbit, he still has to go all out, on the battlefield, there is no room for carelessness.

At this moment, Cao Zijing had rushed to his approach, and the long knife was less than three inches away from Ye Luo's throat, only to see the latter shake his body slightly on the horse, easily dodging the opponent's edge, and then, the steel gun in his hand swept out, directly taking Cao Zijing's waist.

Ah! Cao Zijing secretly said that he was terrible, and hurriedly leaned back, the back of his head almost touched the horse's buttocks, and with a thud, he saw that the cold iron spear was almost whistling against the tip of his nose, and it also scared him out of a cold sweat.

Ye Luo can command tens of thousands of troops, as a vanguard general, really powerful, although he is young, he is not a good stubble.

Cao Zijing exclaimed in his heart, he thought that the other party's attack had passed, just straightened his body, how did he know that the other party still had a back move, a shot missed, and when the two of them were staggered, he threw out his arm and pulled out a horse pistol, and cut the back of Cao Zijing's head.

Hearing that the evil wind behind him was not good, Cao Zijing didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly put away his knife, turned his back and back, and used the blade of the knife to block the opponent's heavy knife. When it is long!

Ye Luo's return lance was slashing at Cao Zijing's gun, making a piercing sound of iron colliding, Cao Zijing felt that he was not blocking a knife, but more like blocking a mountain that was falling, and the overwhelming force of the mountains and seas was not at all what manpower could bear.

"Alas, Zijing, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back!"

At the head of the city, Xuanyuan Wu shook his head, there was no expression on his face, he just looked at the battle on the battlefield fixedly, his eyes were extremely vicious, last time on top of the golden water, he was scolded by Nangong and Luo Xingtian, until now, his health is not very good, but he was lucky to pick up a life, but he fell into some diseases.

"Hmm......"

Qin Tianzhao stood at the head of the city, he couldn't help frowning, he could see that Cao Zijing was almost completely pressed and beaten by Ye Luo, he originally thought that such an inconspicuous character would not have much ability, but he didn't expect that it would make Cao Zijing so embarrassed, it was really a bit of a mistake!
