"My lord," He Xiao's lieutenant general, Ge Qi, was a young general in his twenties, and like most of the officers and soldiers of the Southwest Town Envoys, his father had also defected to the Yanbei Army, a member of the Empire. 【Fengyun Reading Network. He grew up on this land when he was a child, and now, he has returned with the dream of washing away the shame of his fathers, with perseverance and courage, "My lord, the Xia army is near. ”

Chu Qiao didn't speak, and the deputy continued: "Chidu City won't open, let's go." ”

Chu Qiao's face remained unchanged, he kept staring at the Chidu City Gate, and said calmly, "Wait a little longer." ”

Time passed, the wind roared like a mad beast, the heaven and the earth were so silent, but so noisy, the eagles in the sky were circling fiercely, their snow-white wings spread out, almost covering half of the sky.

Ge Qi frowned, he could even hear the sound of the hooves of the Great Xia army, and stepped forward again, "My lord, it's still too late to leave." ”

"Wait a little longer."

"My lord, the Great Xia army is too strong, and it will be difficult for us to resist when we meet head-on on the plain."

"Wait a little longer."

Chu Qiao said calmly, and the long wind blew her hood, revealing her beautiful face. The horse's hooves were moving uneasily, making a crisp sound. The wait was so long, the bitter wind swept across the earth, rolled up the broken grass under the snow, the heart was hot, and the blood was beating violently, once, twice, three times......

"Your Excellency!" A shout suddenly came, and the scout in yellow and brown clothes hurried back, shouting as he ran, "The Xia army has crossed Helan Mountain, and is coming at full speed towards the Chiyuan Ferry, 20,000 light cavalry to attack the vanguard, followed by a large number of heavy cavalry and infantry regiments, I can't tell how many people there are." My lord, they killed dozens of Yanbei troops guarding the first-line gorge in Chidu City, and they also discovered our scouts, and now they have accelerated their speed, and they have already crossed the first-line gorge! ”

A panicked voice suddenly sounded in the team, was the other party's speed so fast? 20,000 light cavalry, countless heavy cavalry, nearly 100,000 infantry corps, such a terrible military appearance, if they collide here, the southwest town envoy may not even have time to scream in his throat.

"My lord," Ge Qi said with a frown, "Leave the green mountains in ......."

"My lord! Look! A small military commander suddenly exclaimed, and pointed to the Chidu City Tower with a shocked face.

Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see that on the high city tower, a red cloud flag on a white background was fluttering, and the thick and simple Chidu City Gate was slowly lowered in the surprised eyes of everyone.

Chidu Castle, it's open!

"Oh!" The warriors rejoiced and cheered in unison.

Chu Qiao suddenly took a long breath, whipped suddenly, hit the horse forward, and said loudly: "Enter the city!" ”

Almost at the moment when the city gate was closed, a black line suddenly appeared on the plain, and at the end of the distant land, on the snow-white Chishui River, there was a low sound like thunder, which slowly reached the ears.

"Who are you? cough cough, I am the city guard of Chidu City in Yanbei, I am His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan Wang personally, cough cough, personally issued a decree to canonize the third-grade master, I am a first-class Guanglu bachelor in 748, I have been personally sealed in front of the palace, in broad daylight, how can you be so arrogant, so insulting, cough ......" An old man of sixty or seventy years old shouted loudly with his teeth and claws, the official robe on his body was twisted by the soldiers, the hat was also worn crookedly, only one boot was worn, and the other was pulled under his feet. Two officers and soldiers of the southwest town government envoy escorted him and made him unable to act rashly.

And what disappointed Chu Qiao was that there were obviously dozens of city gate guards around him, but from the beginning to the present, these people didn't even move, they cowered together, eager to take off the military uniforms on their bodies, obviously without any combat effectiveness at all.

Giving a city with such an important strategic location to such a group of wine bags and rice bags, Chu Qiao only felt that the fire in his heart arched one after another. Although she also knew that if it weren't for this, she wouldn't be able to enter this Chidu City at this moment.

"My lord, I am glad that I did not disgrace my life!" He Xiao stepped forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Chu Qiao in a sonorous tone, the man's dark blue military uniform had a large area of blood stains, which showed that they were not completely unhindered.

Chu Qiao's throat was a little blocked, she reached out to help He Xiao up, and said in a deep voice: "Commander He, if Yanbei can escape this time, you should be the first to do it." ”

"I ...... I am the forty-eighth seat of the elder seat of the president of the Great Peer, cough cough, I am the backbone of Yanbei, I have more than 30 years of experience, and now many generals in the army are my students, cough cough, you treat me like this, you will definitely ......"

"Shut up!" A cold female voice suddenly came. I saw Chu Qiao slowly stepping forward and looking at this Chidu City Guard coldly, she was still so young, but her eyes were full of majesty and arrogance.

Under her gaze, the old castle keeper's voice gradually became quieter, and he felt that he was not confident enough and was quite embarrassed, so he hurriedly muttered boldly: "The guild will judge you, you traitors!" ”

Seven thousand wolf-like soldiers entered the city, alarming the small city, and men, women, and children all walked out of their homes and stood in the snow, looking out from afar.

Chu Qiao sneered, grabbed the old guy's collar, turned around and walked towards the city tower.

"Ahh What are you doing? The old castle guard was pulled to a stumbling point, and almost fell to the ground, and cried out like a pig, "Bold maniac! How dare you be so rude to me! I am the forty-eighth seat of the Elders' Chair, I have been a member for thirty-three years, and the generals in the army are all my students...... Ahem...... I am a first-class Guanglu bachelor, I have the right to hold twelve votes in the Datong Judgment Court, you support the army and respect yourself, deceive your colleagues, I will judge you on behalf of the Datong Association, I will sentence you to exile, deprive you of your military power, I will sentence you to raid your home, I will ......" The noisy voice stopped abruptly in an instant, like a hoarse suona, and suddenly deflated.

On the high city tower, the tall figure of the girl and the slightly depressed waist of the old city guard looked so abrupt, and the strong wind blew, blowing the hem of their same Yanbei military uniforms, and also blowing their jet-black, or once jet-black sideburns. None of them spoke, but stood together on the high gate tower, looking into the distance.

The officers and soldiers of Chidu City and the people felt strange, some people had the courage to climb the tower, but their expressions were stunned, and they also lost their ability to speak. More and more people climbed up, one, two, three, ten, hundred, thousand...... The towers of the city were densely packed with people, their eyes glazed over, their expressions frightened, the breath of despair passed back and forth in the crowd, the smell of death had never been so close as this moment.

The setting sun was like fire, casting blood-red light on everyone's heads, and those mottled lights and shadows, like fire clouds on the fire and thunder fields, sprinkled all over the white snowfield. As soon as the wind blew, the snow drifted away one after another, and in the confused white fog, the iron-gray army covered the entire snowfield like a silent flood. Towering spears, snow-bright swords, black and pressed human heads everywhere, vigorous horses' hooves everywhere, and the flags fluttering, with no end in sight, as if suddenly falling into an boundless nightmare. As far as the eye can see, there is a bloodthirsty and cold sword light flashing everywhere, stretching for more than ten miles before and after, vigorous cavalry regiments, majestic heavy armored regiments, archers such as forests, hard shield armor soldiers, as well as countless infantry regiments, reserve regiments, logistics regiments, chariot and horse regiments in the rear......

It was like a grand military exercise, almost all the elite troops of Great Xia gathered here, the officers and soldiers of Chidu City were stunned, the people were stunned, and even the envoys of the southwest town who had been mentally prepared for a long time were also stunned. It was only at this moment that they suddenly realized what a terrible enemy they were standing opposite them. Great Xia has entrenched in the Hongchuan Continent for 300 years, deterred Simon for 300 years, suppressed Bian Tang, Huai Song, and Nanqiu in the East China Sea for 300 years, how can the accumulated power be shaken by a mere change of true glory? Now, they have come to their senses, their hands free, their legs and feet, and finally, they are going to eradicate those who once questioned their authority!

"After this battle, if you are still alive," Chu Qiao's face was calm, and he turned his head to look at the old man lightly, his tone was steady and unwavering, "Then, I will accept your judgment." ”

With a bang, the old city guard sat on the ground. Chu Qiao didn't look at him, turned around and walked towards the square in the city. Along the way, everyone consciously made way for her, and the wind blew her long hair and big fur, like a sharp war eagle.

Chu Qiao's posture was tall and heroic, and he walked towards the center of the square with his head held high, his eyes shooting like arrows towards the dense crowd under the square.

Their eyes were anxious, like anxious rabbits, this kind of look, Chu Qiao had seen too many times, in the Middle East, Africa, the chaotic Golden Triangle, in those war-torn countries, she had seen too many people displaced by the war. Now, standing here, she doesn't know how to define herself, the liberator of the divine incarnation? Or the destroyer who brings disaster? However, she has no way back, and the only way to do this is to fight!

The enemy was already approaching, and the roar was stirring, piercing through the eardrums of the person, Chu Qiao raised his head, his eyes were clear and tough, but the corners of his mouth slowly led to a faint trace of sadness. She knew that after tomorrow, there would be countless tragedies here, countless families would be broken, and countless loved ones would never be seen again. However, there was nothing else she could do. She looked up slowly, unwilling to look at the hopeful faces again.

Yan Xun, where are you and when are you coming back? At the ends of the earth, I will fight side by side with you! With an army of 200,000 to snatch such a small city with no more than 3,000 soldiers, in the eyes of Great Xia, this is simply a sure thing. But after arriving at Chidu City, Zhao Yang did not immediately issue an order to attack the city, he looked at Chidu City and put on a posture of perseverance, smiled contemptuously, but there was a little more secret joy in his heart. Since the defenders of Chidu want to hold on, then he has a reason to delay a little longer, the later he arrives at Beishuo's back road to outflank, the more beneficial it is for him, let Zhao Qi take the fool of the Batuha family to fight hard with Yanbei first.

So, Zhao Yang immediately ordered the troops to start digging trenches, building fortifications, setting up triphorse ropes, and planting spurs, making an appearance of holding on.

The officers who came to urge the troops of Zhao Qi, the third prince, went to Zhao Yang's military tent several times, urging him to immediately confront the enemy and outflank the back road of Beishuo. But Zhao Yang always looked at him with a strange expression, and asked in surprise, "Aren't I attacking now?" ”

"What the subordinates are talking about is a more active way of attacking." Facing the newly rising Fourteen Princes of Great Xia, the Overseer's face was flushed, cold sweat was dripping on his forehead, and he stumbled his words, "The army of the Third Highness has fought with the Yanbei Army, and the sooner His Highness the Fourteenth arrives in Beishuo, the smaller the casualties of the Southwest Army." ”

"Then how to calculate the casualties of the Northwest Army?" Zhao Yang's face turned cold, his sword eyebrows raised, and he said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner, "As the commander-in-chief of the legion, my greatest responsibility is to exchange the minimum price for the maximum victory. I need to cherish the lives of every soldier under my command, so I feel that our army's current strategic plan is very suitable for the current situation. If I rashly advance and fall into an enemy ambush, causing heavy casualties to the Northwest Army and delaying the achievement of the overall strategic objectives, who can bear this responsibility, Lord Overseer, is it you? ”

Just look at the refreshing one
