As early as when Yao Ruoyu slaughtered Diebu City with one person and one sword, Dajin's general Wanyan Dare had already led the Red Mad Army to enter Lixian, blocking the road north from Zhouqu and Minzhou.

Although the news of the continuous westward march of the literary army along the Shugan border had already reached Lixian, due to the situation of the Jin State now being attacked on both sides, Wanyan dared to press the fighting spirit in his heart and hold his troops in Lixian.

You must know that although the overall number of the Jin army exceeds 1.5 million, Xining Road and Shaanxi Province alone have divided nearly 1.2 million, and Lanzhou City and the area north of it also need a large army, so the huge Jin State can only use it against the literary and artistic army, in fact, only the 40,000 Red Mad Army under his command.

In fact, for Wan Yan Dang, the literary army is not a big problem, although they have a dark night dragon horse that dominates the world, but the Jin country also has a blood-draining martial arts horse that also belongs to the heaven-level army, really serious, Wen Bang can't withstand the thunderous blow of the Jin country at all.

It's just that now the Yanggu Army, the Tiger Army and other elites of the Song Dynasty went on a northern expedition together, breaking through the Shaanxi-Chongqing border, not to mention, and also fought all the way to Jingzhaofu.

Just when Wan Yan dared to check the battle situation in Shaanxi in Lixian every day, a message from the west was put on his desk.

——Yao Ruoyu personally led the Night Dragoon to defeat the reinforcements of Xining Dao, and has now penetrated into Xining Dao.

If it is said that the most feared by the Jin State in the literary and artistic army, naturally there are only Yao Ruoyu and the Night Dragoon, the former is the first sword leader in China, with amazing potential, and the battle of Minzhou can compete with the Seven Realms, and the latter is a rare heaven-level soldier in China.

Now, Yao Ruoyu went to Xining Road to block the coalition forces of various cities assembled by Wanyan Yanyan, although it made the Jin State lose these hundreds of thousands of reinforcements, but it also made the literary and artistic army lose its most powerful combat power.

Putting down the information, Wanyan dared to think about it, suddenly got up and strode to the sand table, the tiger eyes swept over the entire Longnan and Longxi regions, and silently calculated the strength of the literary and artistic army in the cities on this border line.

"Minzhou, Zhouqu, Diebu, Luqu, Maqu," Wanyan dared to stroke his beard and groaned, and suddenly stared, "Minzhou city defense is firm, it is difficult to break through in a short time, and it is easy to shake the defense line arranged before, Diebu and Luqu are too far away, not to mention wasting time to rush over, it will also disconnect the defense line here, so ...... Zhouqu?"

His fingertips lightly touched on the small flag representing Zhouqu City, Wan Yan dared to look deeply, he remembered clearly that the literary and artistic army had deployed nearly 40,000 troops in the Minzhou fortress and the surrounding forts, even if it was the elite of the Red Mad Army, if it forcibly attacked the city, the loss would inevitably be not light.

With the current situation of the Jin State's overstretched troops, any large-scale loss is likely to cause the later war with the Song Dynasty to fall into disadvantage, so Wanyan Dare will not choose the Minzhou Fortress as the target of attack no matter what.

As for the two cities of Diebu and Luqu, not to mention, they are too far away from Lixian, once Wanyan dares to rashly send troops on an expedition, it is very likely that he will move his whole body, causing the Minzhou fortress to take the opportunity to go north to attack Lixian, so as to restrain the path of his own retreat.

"Someone!" Wan Yan dared to think for a long time, then suddenly turned his head and shouted, "Send a message to Wan Yan sharply, and ask him to immediately send someone to investigate the information of Zhouqu City, up to the generals, down to the soldiers, all the information, all the information will be investigated for me." ”

*——*——*——*

Minzhou Fortress.

In the past, the hall where Yan Blaze and the generals discussed had become Xu Xuanrong's private office, with long vertical tables placed horizontally and vertically, and the documents of the entire fortress were piled up, and Xu Xuanrong buried himself in these documents almost day and night, except for sleeping and toilets, even eating was solved here.

Because of the long time, the soft white long skirt on Xu Xuanrong's body was stained with oil, but the already slim woman didn't care about this, and always concentrated on handling the government affairs in the fortress.

The soldiers were injured during drills, the war horses lost their temper and kicked people, a batch of grain was damp, and almost all the affairs, large and small, were handled by Xu Xuanrong alone.

It can be said that it is the existence of Xu Xuanrong that maintains the normal operation of the entire fortress.

With a bang, the iron door of the hall was pushed open, and Li Yilin walked like a fly, howling with ecstasy on his face: "Meng Mengda, there is movement, there is movement in Lixian!"

Xu Xuanrong was covering his mouth and yawning, Leng Buding was frightened by the howl he bumped into, and almost didn't hold back, it took a long time to recover, glared at him with disgust, and asked, "Wanyan dares to attack Zhouqu?"

"That's right, I said, you're too smart, aren't you? Half a month ago, I knew that Wanyan would do that, and specially asked me to send the Eagle Falcon to investigate every day, just now they reported that it was the Red Mad Army that the whole army was dispatched, hehe, they still want to hide their whereabouts, but unfortunately tens of thousands of people are dispatched, how can they escape the Eagle Falcon that I have trained single-handedly!"

Li Yilin ran to the table with a chatter, and was about to grab a handful of hawthorn from the plate, when Xu Xuanrong slapped the back of his hand with the pen, so he could only retract his hand and sneered: "According to the time calculation, they should have just entered the territory of Zhouqu now, I don't know if they will directly start attacking the city, or set up camp first." ”

Xu Xuanrong snorted, frowned slightly, and looked at a pile of books beside her, as if listening to something, after a while, she directly pushed the pen and ink books in front of her, got up and said: "Xunhuan, immediately mobilize all the wolf cavalry, set off directly in two quarters of an hour, and rush to Zhouqu City." ”

Li Yilin was stunned for a moment, didn't think much about it, nodded and said, "Okay!" Before the words fell, he had already turned around and ran out.

Leaving the table, Xu Xuanrong came to the wall on the left, where a huge map ten zhang wide was hung, which described in detail the entire Longnan region, large and small towns, all the streams, mountains, and fortresses, all clearly marked on it.

Staring at the map, Xu Xuanrong carried her left hand on her back, and the cuff of her right hand swung downward, and without a sound, two types of spiritual light, gold and cyan, emerged from all around, turning into wisps of whirlwind blowing across her delicate body, erasing all the oil stains on the white dress, and restoring the original clean and plain white.

Glancing at his whole body, Xu Xuanrong smiled with satisfaction, and looked at the huge map again, his eyes were like water, with a little ripple.

As early as after learning that Yan Dare led the army into Lixian, Xu Xuanrong had already murdered the general, one of the four giants of the Dajin military.

With the dual information network of the Shadow Department and the Lily Sect, she knows very well the current dilemma of the Jin State in terms of troops, if she can swallow the Red Mad Army in one bite, then the Jin State will either withdraw the soldiers and horses from Shaanxi and come back, or mobilize the soldiers and horses from northern Gansu to the south, no matter how you deal with it, it will greatly affect the original plan of the Jin State.

Therefore, among the several town armies of the literary and artistic army, the only two armies led by female town generals were stationed in Zhouqu City, and there were three armies of the Beast God, Cold Iron, and Divine Eagle plus a sword formation that could rival the Seven Realms to sit in Minzhou.

It is precisely because the Minzhou Fortress has the strength to resist the Seven Realms, and there are more than 40,000 soldiers and horses, so in order to prevent too much damage, Wanyan Dare will never choose Minzhou as the target for attack.

It is precisely because the two town generals are women, and they are both female generals who have not been well-known in the past, and they do not have the strength of the Seven Realms level, so Zhouqu City is more suitable as the prey of the Jin Kingdom's attack.

As long as Dajin can break through Zhouqu City, then it will naturally be able to cut off the connection between the soldiers and horses of the east and west of the literary and artistic army, so that they can no longer clamp down on the actions of the Xining Dao reinforcements at will as they did at the beginning.

Therefore, Yao Ruoyu was desperate to lead the army into Xining Dao alone, and did not hesitate to defeat the eastern coalition army of Xining Dao, just to expand the matter, alarm Wan Yan Dang, and tempt this general to take the initiative to attack Zhouqu City.

With the departure of the dark night dragoon, Wanyan dared to take the opportunity to attack, a heavily armed Minzhou, and the Seven Realms were in charge, and a Zhouqu City with empty troops and all female leaders.

What Xu Xuanrong wants is that even if Wan Yan Dare knows that this is a ploy, he must crash in, because as a famous general in the world, Wan Yan Dare must find an opportunity to break the situation of the Jin State's military constraints.

knew that there was fraud, but he had to do it, this is what Xu Xuanrong is best at!

*——*——*——*

Zhouqu City, black clouds overwhelm the city, the bleak wind howls, and pieces of flags flutter with the wind, making bursts of cloth whipping sounds.

Although the sky is dark, but the outside of the city stretches for more than ten miles, all as red as day, a golden soldier wearing red armor stands in line, 30,000 infantry troops are neatly divided into hundreds of phalanxes, and Wanyan dares to sit in the rear, it is 10,000 cavalry with men and horses wearing brass-colored talisman armor.

The top Xuan-level cavalry in the Red Crazy Army can set off a raging hurricane just by moving, and apart from heavy armor, there are few armies that can resist their charge while resisting this endless terrifying hurricane.

Touching the handle of the war knife on his waist, Wan Yan dared to look condensed, when the Jin State Wusheng Palace test, he and Wan Yan Yong were given the name "brave" by the Taizu of the Jin Kingdom, and since then the two have been fighting side by side for decades, even if there is no blood relationship, the two have long been friends in life and death.

Wan Yan Yong went out to chase and kill Yao Ruoyu, but he fell inexplicably, and from that day on, Wan Yan dared to silently swear that one day he would destroy Dawen and avenge Wan Yan Yong.

Raising his head, Wan Yan dared to see the two delicate figures standing in front of the crowd at the head of the city through a distance of thousands of feet.

Jiang Siyu!

The two women are tall and beautiful women, and they naturally don't show any general majesty in the eyes of Wan Yan Dare and others, and suddenly Wan Yan Dare is sneered slightly, looked up and glanced at the drowsy sky, the dantian was really angry, and said in a deep voice: "Siege!"

This day is known as the beginning of the Gannan war!
