PS: Today's second more vote! There is one more chapter in the evening......

――――――――――――――――――――

A group beating that weighed more than 1,000 catties and was as light as four or two disappeared. Geng Chao's image of being clear and brave in public and private is taller and fuller, and Yang Zhi has also appropriately demonstrated his strength and established his prestige. Both of them have several extremely heavy characters hanging above their heads, "All for Daxia", which can be said to take what they need and get their own place. In fact, both of them are not stupid, at this time, they are fighting to the death in the nest, and they are called ignorant of the general situation, and what is the difference between them and traitors in the most important places?

Yang Zhi has no combat experience in leading a cavalry corps of 10,000 people to run long distances, and Geng Chao, who has been tempered in actual combat for a long time, is obviously more professional than him in this regard. So he is still a little self-aware, and he never knows how to pretend to understand and talk about it.

After the group fight, no one dared to provoke Yang Zhi, and he behaved more honestly than a quail as always. It's just that the raid legion is a person who knows that this "quail" is not something that ordinary people can afford to provoke.

In the winter of the twenty-fourth year of Wucheng in the Xia calendar, Shuofang Biansai felt more cold and difficult than the general Wei Su of Great Xia, and it was the Turkic Tuodu Khan who felt more cold and unbearable. Weisu has been guarding Shuofang for more than a decade, and has long been accustomed to wartime and war between the two countries. He knew better than anyone that the peace agreement of the Turks was less reliable than the promises of a scoundrel. As soon as he noticed the abnormal weather, he ordered the whole line to strengthen the vigilance, so the Khan did not take advantage of the expected advantage.

The Khan of Tuodu also had a word of suffering. The Turks lived in search of water and grass, and lost countless cattle and sheep in this natural disaster that had not occurred for decades. According to the habitual bandit logic in the past, leading the army south can not only grab grain and livestock, but also extort a large amount of tribute. But this time, not only did Wei Su stick to the wall and clear the field early to avoid the battle, but he also did not see Emperor Xia send an envoy to negotiate peace. The failure of wishful thinking caused all the tribal princes to complain, and the Khan's prestige was plummeting, and it might even threaten the stability of the Khan's throne. In desperation, he had to accompany Wei Su to endure hardship, hoping to survive until the beginning of spring and then attack in a big way, forcing Emperor Xia to negotiate and pay tribute.

Although it was still cold in the northern border in early spring and February, as the weather warmed up day by day, Yang Zhi knew that the day of the expedition was approaching day by day.

On February 18, the 25th year of Wucheng in the Xia calendar, the holy decree was issued: Geng Chao, the general of the forbidden army, led 10,000 troops, and went to Shuofang to reinforce five days later, but he was still under the control of the general Weisu.

In the twenty-five years since Emperor Xia ascended the throne, he never stopped fighting, and such a purpose seemed so common that it made one wonder how much more troops of 10,000 troops would have to ease the pressure on the Shuofang front.

This seemingly ordinary will made Yang Zhi glance at Emperor Xia again. As the supreme commander of the old plan, Emperor Xia considered it very comprehensively. Behind the war is the support of money and grain and national strength, and Emperor Xia almost took into account the cost of the war, the suddenness of the war, and the consequences of the war. If you win, the whole country will be excited, and it is normal to lose the war, and it will not have much impact on the morale of the people.

Yang Zhi understood that Geng Chao actually fought this battle on behalf of the emperor, and the strategic significance to the emperor and even the entire Great Xia Dynasty was extraordinary. If you win a battle, you will have mastered the magic weapon to defeat the enemy, and you will be able to easily defend and attack in the future war against the Turks. Continuing to negotiate peace under the condition of changing the offensive and defensive situation will not only bring about a relatively long-term peace, but will also free up some troops to speed up the process of reunifying the world. In this sense, you can only win, you can't lose!

In the national righteousness of resisting foreign aggression, Yang Zhi is not ambiguous at all, and no longer competes with himself on the question of "who is he working for". It was the first time that he had faced the battle of thousands of troops so earnestly, as if he had regained the restless feeling he had felt like the first mission in his previous life, and his heart was full of excitement and anticipation.

Geng Chao's first military order after receiving the holy decree was to order the whole army to rest for three days. The war is cruel, most of these 10,000 elite horsemen are less than twenty years old Sanqin children, and many people may never come back once they step out of Chang'an. Geng Chao followed Wei Su to fight the Turks for eight years, and there were so many similar scenes that he was almost numb, so numb that he almost forgot his heartache. There are family members and relatives in Chang'an who go back to say goodbye, and those who are not in Chang'an bring a letter to the family to report a news, and I don't know what it's like to be a woman in this life!

Yang Zhi had been away from home for nearly a month, and at noon on the day he returned, Qin Kongyun held a banquet in Qin's Mansion to feast for him. Xu Wenhan, Qin Kongyun, Wei Feiyang, and Shen Chong have all seen him like a monster in myths and legends, and they are not very worried about his personal safety, they are all eagerly looking forward to his immortal achievements, and Wei Feiyang is even more eager to replace him.

The old man Yang Yan was both happy and worried. From the day his son decided to cooperate with the Qin family, he was mentally prepared. Yang Zhi joined the army as a forbidden army, and it is understandable to fight for the country. What worries the old man the most is that his son delayed his marriage because his family moved to Chang'an. If this lone seedling has three longs and two shorts, the Yang family will be extinct. No matter how much the son and his brothers comforted him, they could not be happy.

Halfway through the feast, the family of the Qin Mansion came to report: "Young Master, King Yue sent someone to send a letter, and repeatedly instructed Yang Ye to open it in person." ”

Yang Zhi did not see each other again after saying goodbye to King Yue in the palace before he took office, and he didn't want to have anything to do with this little master in the future. At this time, King Yue sent someone to deliver a letter, just for the sake of the two of them, and brought a few words of encouragement to see him off.

Yang Zhi was stunned when he took the exhibition letter and saw it, and only six words were written on the snow-white letterhead: I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

The six words are two different handwritings, the first one is sorry for the scribbled handwriting, and the second is sorry for the beautiful handwriting, which is obviously written by two people separately. Only Yang Zhi can understand such a letter, and after reading it, he slowly tore up the letter, shook his head again and again: "Rare, rare!" ”

Seeing that everyone looked at him curiously and was silent, he suddenly smiled and prevaricated: "Oh, it's nothing, King Yue just wished me an early victory." ”

After the feast of the Qin Mansion dispersed, when he returned home, the old man also gave Yang a letter, which was undoubtedly written by Shen Yu. Now Yang Zhi naturally has a little concern for this cruel and lovely fiancée in his heart, and the letter feels far thicker than before when he is pinched in his hand, which seems to be very inconsistent with Miss Shen's usual writing style of dozens of pages, and he can't help but feel a little apprehensive.

I don't want Shen Yu to have two fewer words in this letter than the Yue Wang sisters and brothers, but Yang Zhi can't read enough of it after repeated recollection, and the four words on the letter are: miss you. Waiting for you!
