"Defend against the enemy!"

.......

The shouts of the army resounded through the sky.

They went straight to Xunyang along the official road.

Fu Yuanmei had already dressed up, and she changed into a silver thick coat.

In this dress, several white snow lotus flowers are embroidered on her shoulders.

These snow lotuses come to life as if they were real.

Fu Yuanmei's figure is slender and well-proportioned, uneven and convex, and her skin is fair and smooth.

She was in the team of some people, and Fu He even arranged a soldier to protect her, and Fu He could only take a step ahead of the army with the military order on his shoulder.

Not long after they walked out of Jianzhou City, they saw smoke and dust in the distance..... It is also far away from Jianzhou City!

In front of them was a vast Gobi, with yellow sand and dead trees.

Her heart gradually rose to her throat. She was nervous.

Fu Yuanmei looked at the endless team, her eyes revealing complex and firm conviction.

"Sons and daughters of Jianzhou, are you ready?"

She held the zither in her hand, and the strings were plucked on her jade fingers.

The strings flutter lightly, as if calling your heartbeat.

The sound of the piano resounded in the sky, like the warm sun of spring, warming everyone's heart.

It seems to be back to the street that day, the encounter between Zhang Chang and Fu Yuanmei.

"This ...... What kind of tune is this? ”

"This piece is called "Meet Daxu", which was taught to me by my father, what do you think?"

"I... I've never heard of it. ”

"So, can you help me?"

"Is Childe the younger brother of the current emperor? It's so handsome. It's just that the little girl misses her father, and I don't know if the commander can give my father a few good words in front of the emperor? ”

"Thank you Zhang Gongzi, my father will please you, when my father comes back, I will definitely thank you." By the way, this is a piece of the little girl's heart, and I hope the son will accept it. ”

In the long expedition out of the customs, everyone looked at the yellow sand in the sky tiredly.

However, when a beautiful woman holds the guqin, everyone is attracted by her sound. Her fingers slid lightly over the strings, and the sound of the piano was like flowing water.

Beneath her fingertips, the strings seemed to become a living dragon, leaping, roaring, and chanting.

In this beautiful sound of the piano, everyone forgot the hardships and hardships of the expedition. They close their eyes and immerse themselves in this beautiful melody, as if they are in another world.

The girl's face also became more beautiful and moving, her skin was like clotted fat, her lips were like cherries, and her teeth were like treasures.

Her eyes were closed, beads of sweat on her forehead glistened in the light, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, as if she was enjoying this wonderful moment.

Her piano voice conveys her innermost emotions, makes people feel her joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and makes people feel the silent communication between her heart and the strings.

The sound of the piano continued for a long time, until the girl's fingers began to go numb.

After the last note fell, everyone applauded and cheered to express their respect and gratitude to her.

The girl smiled and greeted everyone, then gently put down the guqin and stretched her arms, only then did everyone be surprised to find that her arms were already soaked.

The scale of this expedition was very large, and it was divided into three routes. One of the roads was personally commanded by General Zhenguo, and the other two roads were handed over to Zhang Chang, the commander of the three armies.

Wu Jinfan, the general of Zhenguo, led the army all the way to the north and went straight to Xunyang City. However, Zhang Chang, the commander of the three armies, led 20,000 elite troops to make a detour, detoured back to the rear of the Western Xia camp, and took advantage of the situation to capture Pingliang City, the old nest of Western Xia.

This time the battle plan was made by Zhang Chang after consulting with General Zhenguo.

Their goal was to drive the Western Xia out of Daxu and to wipe out the rebels as much as possible.

The Tangut people invaded the south of Daxu for many years, burning, killing and looting, burning houses, destroying crops, and even slaughtering villages and exterminating tribes; They even plundered the rich areas of the Central Plains, displacing the people and starving to death and freezing to death.

This blood debt is finally going to be avenged today!

Zhang Chang took a detour of 20,000 elite troops to attack Pingliang City, while Wu Jinfan, the general of Zhenguo, galloped to the aid of Xunyang City.

Zhang Chang's goal was simple, that is, to resolve the rebellion as quickly as possible, and then quickly return to Daxu to help.

Because the Tanguts were very cunning, they would send outposts every half month to check for news.

He must recapture Pingliang City within half a month! Otherwise, the Tangut people will find the abnormality and then withdraw to Pingliang, and Daxu will be in danger at that time!

So he had to seize this opportunity and race against time to defeat the Tanguts.

He led the army at a gallop, eating and sleeping all the way.

Along the way, they encountered many difficult bandits. However, none of them were Zhang Chang's opponents, and they were easily dispersed.

In the evening, they finally arrived in Pingliang.

They traveled in a hurry, and the supply of food and grass was not sufficient.

They need to rest.

Zhang Chang ordered people to set up tents.

"Tell the bell to rest and extinguish the torch!"

Zhang Chang took a team of guards to the outside of the Pingliang City Wall and observed the surrounding situation.

Pingliang City is heavily guarded, and the city walls are towering.

The city walls were brightly lit, and there were patrolling Western Xia soldiers everywhere.

"My lord, what shall we do now?"

"Let's stop down and wait and see."

"Yes, sir!"

Zhang Chang stood surrounded by black, looking at the Pingliang in the distance.

There was depth and solemnity between his brows.

He suddenly felt a little tired, his brother Zhang Shi took over the Daxu Empire was already full of holes, but if Daxu returned ten years ago, if Zhang Shi became the emperor, the Daxu Empire might command the vassal states with the attitude of a strong man.

But now, it's too late.

Although Zhang Shi inherited the throne of Daxu, the luck of the Daxu Empire was at a glance.

He now only hopes that the war can be ended as soon as possible and the glory of Daxu can be restored.

"Adult ........"

Zhang Chang turned around and saw his lieutenant Zhang De looking at him anxiously.

"Zhang De, you've been following me for ten years!"

"My subordinates have followed adults for more than ten years, and I am only thirty years old this year."

Zhang De, his real name is Zhang Guang, is Zhang Chang's right-hand man.

"You are indeed not young, it's time to marry a wife, and I will marry you when I go back."

When Zhang De heard this, he was stunned, and he knelt on the ground excitedly: "My lord........"

"There is only loyalty in the hearts of my subordinates, as long as Daxu wins, let alone getting married, even if I die right now, I am worth it."

Zhang De's tears couldn't stop falling. Maybe he just wants the glory of Daxu!

"Don't say it, it's settled!" Zhang Chang raised his hand and motioned for him to stop talking.

"Yes, sir!"

Zhang De was moved in his heart, for so many years, adults have never treated him badly. This kindness is remembered by Zhang De.

"My subordinates will always swear allegiance to your lordship!"

Zhang Chang helped him up: "Okay, okay, I'm for your good." You should also start a family, otherwise even if the war is victorious one day, you are alone, how can you ....... Belch? You should think about your family and don't let down your mother's desire to hold her grandson! ”

"The subordinates know that they are wrong, and they ask the adults to punish them!"

Zhang Chang sighed: "Well, it's good!" I was not mistaken! ”

"Zhang De, I order you to take a hundred warriors to sneak into Pingliang City late at night, and send a letter back, only saying the word 'war' or not 'war'!"

Zhang Dewei was slightly stunned and said slowly: "Yes, my lord!" Subordinates obey! ”

As if he had a determination to die, his eyes briefly made contact with Zhang Chang, and he didn't know whether it was resentment, gratitude, or joy in his heart.

Zhang Chang patted him on the shoulder: "Protect yourself!" ”

Qiang held back the tears in the corners of his eyes, and his face was suddenly extremely bitter and hideous.

He retreated silently, not saying a word, and not wanting to say anything more.

His back looked so tragic. Zhang Chang looked at the back of Zhang De leaving, stood for a long time, and refused to leave.

The night was like ink, the moon was crooked, and the stars looked at him with blinking eyes.

"Brothers, let's go!" Zhang De shouted and rushed into the darkness.

He was followed by a hundred warriors, all dressed in night clothes, wearing black masked scarves, and holding long knives, and followed closely behind Zhang De.

At this moment, Zhang Chang has returned to the army.

"The whole army is there, ready to attack the city, all the army commanders and even the commanders have found their own hundred masters, and the generals with more than five hundred lords must take the lead!"

"——!" All the soldiers agreed in unison.

Soon, everyone found their respective teams, and more than 500 generals were assembled. One by one, they rode horses, swords in hand, and waited for the horn to go out.

The lights in Pingliang City are brilliant, and it is a lively scene.

Zhang De and the others quietly approached the city gate and climbed the city tower in the night.

Hidden in the darkness, staring at the city walls.

On the city tower, a burly man sat on a chair and drank, he was Liu Dawu, the guard of Pingliang City Gate. Next to Liu Dawu, several beautiful women were diligently serving him vegetables.

Liu Dawu drank glass after glass of wine, scolding something in his mouth.

The Western Xia soldiers on the city wall didn't notice them at all, and still drank wine and ate meat.

"Harm! It's really a grievance here, the labor and management are also the nobles of the Western Xia, and they only give the labor and management an errand to guard the city gate, it's really damned! ”

The more Liu Dawu thought about it, the more angry he became, and he drank a stomach again.

"Let me know who is next to Dashuai's ear, chewing the root of the ear can't spare him, cough cough....... Beauty. ”

After Liu Dawu finished speaking, he reached out and hugged several women on the table and kissed her red lips fiercely.

"Hmm....... Adults, adults......."

At this time, the other general guarding the city was not angry when he saw this, and kicked over the wine jug in front of him.

Liu Dawu looked at each other angrily: "General Li, what are you doing!" ”

General Li gritted his teeth and said: "Liu Dawu, you bastard, let me tell you, don't mess with me, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!" ”

"Li Laohu, you dare to touch me and try it! I'm a Western Xia nobleman! ”

"Huh! Aristocrat? The heads of your Western Xia nobles are really valuable! Look at you, a wreck, and a nobleman? ”

General Lee snorted disdainfully.

"Haha, Li Laohu, you are really stupid, you can say such childish words, which of our Western Xia nobles is not arrogant?"

Liu Dawu suddenly laughed and hugged the thin waist of those dancing girls: "Li Laohu, I know, you are afraid of dereliction of duty in defending the city, hahaha, to tell you the truth, the handsome man has poured 100,000 troops, and Daxu has long had no power to fight back!" ”

"Pingliang! Impregnable! Who would dare to commit it? Hahahaha! "Liu Dawu is extremely arrogant, and it is expected that Daxu will not have the strength to attack Pingliang City!
