Northland.

After a day of repair, the army marched towards the capital of the north under the cheering of the horn, not surprisingly this is the last battle of the Northern Expedition, after this battle the world will enter the real peaceful and prosperous era, the territory of the Liang will also reach an unprecedented scale, 13,600 miles from east to west, 18,200 miles from north to south, from the sea in the east to the desert in the west, from the South China Sea in the south to the extreme north, and the people under the rule will reach a terrifying 13 million households, that is, nearly 60 million people.

Li Congyi, who is about to complete the last battle for the empire, is very excited at the moment, because the future history books will record the Northern Expedition in the eleventh year of Daxing, which completed the grand feat, and he Li Congyi will also be recorded in the history of the country by the historian as the commander of the last battle, just one step away, only that step can achieve the world's achievements, and then Li Congyi took a long time to calm himself down, he told himself that he must not be too excited at this time, he must be cautious and cautious and not make any sloppiness, He cleared his mind of all distractions and refocused his attention on the battle in front of him.

There are still 300 miles to go to the capital of the northern country, and the army will be able to reach the capital of the northern country in two days at most, Li Congyi gave each general an order to march cautiously, even if he arrived at the capital of the enemy country, he had to endure it for me, and he could only enter the city if he gave the order to enter the city, and he would be engaged in violating military law. Just when Li Congyi was in a good mood, a piece of news came, which made him angry and almost cut the messenger who sent the message, saying that Zhou Sheng was ordered by the emperor to become the general of the Second Route Army of the Northern Expedition, and now he is less than four hundred miles away from the capital of the northern country. At this moment, Li Congyi had already forgotten the order to march cautiously just now, and hurriedly asked the herald to inform his subordinates to get on the horse and run without a horse, and rushed to the northern capital with all his might.

After receiving the order, the generals in the army first felt a little inexplicable, and then they understood that Li Congyi was afraid that someone would rob him of his credit, after all, the difference between the first and the second entering the northern capital is big, for the northern royal family, whoever comes is the same, anyway, they all surrender to the Great Liang, but this is different when the Northern Imperial Court wrote to the Emperor of the Great Liang, because the name of the Great Liang general was written on the surrender letter on the Liang side, that is, the person who entered the capital first, Historians will also record the history of the country according to this surrender document, and it is no wonder that Li Congyi is so anxious.

After the military order was issued, Li Congyi directly led a group of cavalry to leave the army and rush towards the northern capital, if Zhou Sheng's guy was the first to enter the northern capital, then everything he did was in vain, and in the end it was all cheap, that kid didn't make him anxious, now he can't take care of a lot, he just wants to enter the city that can make him famous in history as soon as possible.

And on the other side, Zhou Sheng also took his own soldiers to gallop all the way, in order to prevent the horses from dying of exhaustion on the road, Zhou Sheng specially spent a lot of money to equip each soldier with two good horses, as long as he can get there before Li Congyi, he and the entire Zhou family will get supreme glory, "Zhou Cheng!" The person I asked you to send should be almost there by now, right? ”

"Young master, rest assured, this time it is five or six who will go in person to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"That's good, this operation must be successful, and we must not let Li Congyi enter the royal city before us." Zhou Sheng's face showed a fierce color that he had never had, for him, the interests of the Zhou family are far greater than the country, this is not only what his Zhou family thinks, the rest of the family all hold such an idea, the family and the dynasty are just a kind of dependent relationship, the dynasty relies on the family to rule steadily, the family relies on the dynasty to strengthen itself, if the Liang is weakened one day, the family will not hesitate to kick the beam away.

"Senior brother, why is the Metropolitan Governor suddenly so anxious? He actually left the army behind and led the army first. ”

Huangfu Yuan was a little speechless, and said impatiently, "This is not simple, it must be Li Congyi who is afraid that someone will rob him of his credit." ”

Yan Shengyun looked at Huangfu Yuanji's eyes even more puzzled after hearing this, "No, senior brother, aren't they all the generals of the Great Liang, why do they regard the other party as a competitor?" ”

"You usually let you read more of the works left by the ancestors, but you don't listen to them, and now it's stupid like something....... "Huangfu Yuanji is really hot, how can Yan Shengzong have such an outlier, and it is his own junior brother, complaining about the transfer of Huangfu Yuanji or patience and Yan Shengyun explained, "This is the last battle of the Great Liang is of great significance, everyone who wants to become the hero of the world naturally has to compete with each other, if I guess correctly, the other army should lead the army should be that Zhou Sheng, And His Majesty did this to deliberately create a contradiction between the two, after all, after this battle, there will be no war in the world, and the two generals are hidden behind the scenes, and the new generation of generals and leaders are none other than these two, no matter who wins this honor in the end, His Majesty's goal has been achieved, and he is really worthy of being the last victor in the troubled times. ”

After Huangfu Yuanjiyi's explanation, Shengyun also understood, and in the end, no matter who entered the royal city first, the result was the same for Daliang and the emperor, "Thank you, senior brother, for solving your doubts, Shengyun understands, so do we want to help the Metropolitan Governor to let him enter the royal city first?" ”

Huangfu Yuanji shook his head and said, "No, none of us will help this time, we are people sent by the emperor, there is no need to get involved in their fight, besides, even if we don't help, Li Congyi can't blame us, and if we help the wrong person, then our life will not be easy in the future......."

Just as the two were talking, Huangfu Yuanji suddenly noticed that there were several breaths of cultivation in the distance that were at least eight realms of cultivation, approaching the vanguard of the army, Yan Shengyun naturally also caught those few breaths, and was about to go out of the camp to check when he was pulled by Huangfu Yuanji, "Senior brother, the victory and defeat have been decided." After hearing Huangfu Yuanji's words, Yan Shengyun turned his head and noticed that the corners of Huangfu Yuanji's mouth were slightly raised at this moment, every time Huangfu Yuanji showed such an expression, it meant that he was already confident.

......

Just as Li Congyi and the Ghost Ray Army were hurrying forward, suddenly several sword lights appeared in front of them, and they attacked them at a very fast speed, as the sword light flashed a large area of Ghost Ray Iron Horseman's head to the ground, Li Congyi hurriedly reined in his horse and shouted at the front army, "The whole army is on alert!" Defend yourself against the enemy! The sergeants quickly formed a military formation when they heard Li Congyi's order, and the monks in the shadows also stopped attacking when they saw this, after all, the military formation formed by the Ghost Spirit Army is not comparable to the ordinary military formation, they only had to take the lead to succeed before, if they break through again now, it will not only be difficult to get out, but also ruin the young master's plan, what they want is to drag Li Congyi.

Since the enemy has not yet appeared, Li Congyi does not dare to act rashly, it seems that the cultivation of several people on the other side is at least above the Seven Realms, and it is really a big deal to dispatch so many Eight Realm monks at one time, Li Congyi at this time is only less than one hundred and fifty miles away from the royal city, but the other party seems to be determined not to let himself move forward, how can this be good? Is it really going to stop there.......
