King of Han, the first year of Jianwu.

September 28.

Han Palace.

Inside the Jiaofang Palace.

Wu Nian was wearing the regular clothes of the Han Dynasty and wearing a black gauze winged crown. With his tall figure and heroic countenance. It's really a king's asset.

In front of him were siblings who were a year apart.

Wu Yu, Wu Ting.

Wu Nian's expression was very kind, and he asked about his second son's studies in a soft tone. Wu Yu is a little adult, answering them one by one. Wu Ting hesitated, looking down at his toes.

Although it is a sibling of the same mother.

But the personalities and intelligence of the two sons are completely different.

Wu Yu is very quiet, behaving as if he is a little adult, and he is well-behaved. It looks ordinary, but in fact, the intelligence is very high, and he is very good at reading.

In addition to intelligence, he also has intelligence. Good at insight.

The young master of the crown prince praised Wu Yu as the "virtuous prince". Wu Nian also often said to Liu Xiang in private. "The crown prince is the head of the family."

Every time Liu Xiang is full of joy and is very happy.

comparatively.

Wu Nian's eldest son, Wu Min, is quite majestic.

And Ngồn.

Looking at this son, Wu Nian shook his head in his heart. The Lord of the Rich. But the stupid son is also his own son.

Wu Nian loved Wu Ting a little more and said, "San'er. I will explain to the young master of the crown prince, and be more tolerant of you in reading. Make time and do what you love. ”

With that, he beckoned Wu Ting to sit in his arms and stroked the back of his head.

"Hmm." Wu Ting was very happy and nodded vigorously. Reading or something, it's the most annoying. It's better to play.

"Er'er. I'm leaving soon. I'm not worried about my family. But in state affairs, you are the prisoner of the country. You have to listen to the words of Shoufu Liu Zhixing, listen more to everything, watch more, and talk less. You know? ”

Wu Nian said to Wu Yu again.

"Yes." Wu Yu bowed and saluted, and then said: "I wish my father a victory and a prosperous martial arts." ”

"Okay." Wu Nian smiled and nodded.

Wu Ting was ignorant and didn't know what was going on.

When the army was about to be dispatched, Wu Nian took a lot of time to accompany his wife and children. Especially Queen Liu Xiang, with two sons.

Late September.

Morning.

In the palace hall, Wu Nian summoned the important ministers of the imperial court, as well as the officers of more than 100 households in the army who are currently inside and outside Jiangxian County.

Wu Nian sat on the throne and looked at the civil and military forces in the hall. There were more than 100 people in the hall, all in an orderly manner, all of them bowed their heads slightly, not daring to look at Wu Nian.

Wu Nian said: "According to the plan. Troops will be sent tomorrow. ”

"In addition to the two generals Zhang Jin and Liu Wu, as well as the garrisons of the various provinces and the navy. The rest of the generals all marched into the Huanglong Mansion. ”

"A total of 110,000 soldiers."

"And Meng Yuan has ten thousand soldiers. In this battle, we are evenly matched. ”

"On the battlefield. When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. That's right. The widow believes that you all understand. ”

"Yes."

The civil and military officials are all loud. Everyone looked excited, even Zhao Mancheng, Li Yunzhong, and Zhao Yanting.

"It's a real showdown. Credits are at your fingertips. Zhao Yanting's heart was already boiling.

Li Yunpet and Zhao Mancheng glanced at each other, thinking with a clear mind.

"As a military general, I really have no regrets in my life to be able to participate in a decisive battle of this level."

"Mengyuan dog. Drive you out of Liaodong first, and then slaughter your species. Avenge my family. Long Ji's fists were clenched, and his heart was vicious.

With an army of more than 100,000 people, how to march is a technical job. Wu Nian immediately arranged the order of the marching troops. After everything was explained, Wu Nian stood up and glanced at the officers present from hundreds of households and above.

These faces are young and old. Officers are not soldiers. Of course, soldiers need young and strong soldiers, and officers need prestige and command ability.

Among these hundreds and thousands of households, Wu Nian can call out the names of many people, and a few people are still very familiar. It was the people of Beishan Fort who raised troops together that year.

More than a decade has passed.

Many of the big soldiers of the year have already achieved fame.

Wu Nian took a deep breath, and then said, "It's been so many years. Even if I don't say anything. I'm sure you're already excited. ”

"The descendants of the Yan Han, the well-dressed children. I believe these words have been imprinted into your bones. ”

"Expelling the Tartars and recovering Liaodong, not to mention."

"But I think I should say a few words."

After that, Wu Nian said loudly: "Take the widow's saber." ”

"Yes." The Ouchi guards outside the temple immediately shouted yes, and then hurried down. Soon after. Ouchi's guards brought a saber for Wu Nian.

This saber is unremarkable from the outside.

Sonorous bang. Wu Nian pulled out his saber, a cold glow shone, and then converged. The knife is actually mediocre as well.

It's just a good steel knife.

And no matter how good the steel knife is, a few slashes will appear.

Since Wu Nian started the army, he doesn't know how many good knives have been broken. This knife has followed him the longest.

O king.

In recent years, he has rarely used a knife to cut people on the battlefield.

"Good knives." Wu Nian raised the steel knife in his hand and gently stroked the blade, as if he was treating a lover, with deep affection.

Soon, the affection in his eyes turned into a strong murderous intent, and he raised his head again to look at the officers and generals.

"Brothers. It has been fourteen years since the widow started the army. How many people have been buried in their homes because they are widowed and have died nameless. How many people follow the widow, fight for the rest of their lives, and never regret it. ”

"The enemy in this battle is strong. Mengyuan 100,000 households. Fighting Nations. ”

"But the widow believes that the widow is stronger."

"The widow wants to use this knife to cut off the head of Chunyuan. Capture the Yellow Dragon and pay tribute to the dead soldiers with the head of Chunyuan. ”

"Brothers. The widow also knows that someone is now at ease. thinks that with the national strength of the Han Kingdom, it will not work once, and there will be a second time. ”

"But the widow told you plainly. The outnumbered people definitely did not want the Second Northern Expedition. The widow wants to settle the Yellow Dragon this time. If it didn't work, the widow chose to die in Huanglong Mansion. ”

"Triumph or die on the battlefield, there is no third way to choose."

"Brothers. Let me die. ”

After that, Wu Nian raised the steel knife in his hand, and the majestic voice roared like thunder in the hall, like a war drum.

The drums of war are up, and the sound of killing is here.

"I want to die with the king." The officers and generals immediately boiled with enthusiasm, knelt down on their knees, bowed to the king, and raised their heads to reveal their flushed cheeks full of excitement.

How can you be afraid of death?

For the Yan Han, he died with the king. It's also an honor.

"Good. All good brothers. Wu Nian applauded, and then laughed.

Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunchong were both shocked. They had been in the Han army for a long time, but it was the first time they had encountered such a scene.

This is the Han Army.

The Han army had a spirit that Goguryeo did not have.

"That's why we failed. This is also the power of the reign of the male lord. Zhao Mancheng and Li Yunpet glanced at each other, and said secretly in their hearts.

Wu Nian put away his laughter, and then said, "Since there is only life and death here. Then we have to talk about what happens after death. What would happen to the country if the widow died on the battlefield? ”

"Therefore the widow should take care of the orphan."
