The snow in Wujiang City stopped, and General Xu Qing arrived.
When the 30,000 soldiers urgently dispatched by Zhongzhou and Nanzhou arrived at Wujiang City, Zhang Xiaodao, who was standing on the city wall, suddenly felt that the world was quiet.
The Tang Dynasty was known for its fierce folk customs, but the sergeants of the army were known for their pride, but they were lined up under the city wall, and they had a murderous atmosphere that soared into the sky.
The soldiers of the Sheng Tang Dynasty with bright armor were encamped outside Wujiang City under the order, and General Xu Qing entered the city with several deputies, but there was no reception banquet, and he directly entered the mansion temporarily requisitioned by Tang Qinian.
Xu Qing, who was wearing light armor, was over half a hundred years old, but his figure was extremely tall, and his appearance was too dark to see anything good-looking and ugly.
In the inner hall of the courtyard, Xu Qing and Tang Qinian did not greet each other, and went straight to the topic.
"According to the information of the Yueming Palace, the rebels only occupied three cities close to the border pass, which formed horns with each other, and the surrounding terrain was dominated by mountains and jungles. It's easy to ambush!"
As he spoke, Xu Qing pointed to one of the straight lines of the huge map spread on the desk and said, "The most direct solution is for us to kill all the way from here to Longyan City." ā
Tang Qinian said: "The general of military strategy is in charge, and I only provide reference to build yƬ." ā
Xu Qing's eyes flashed with appreciation, and he secretly sighed at the mind of the second prince.
Zhang Xiaodao stood silently beside Tang Qinian, just listening to the conversation between the two, secretly thinking that the Tang Dynasty people fought the Tang Dynasty people, why did this war come about?
Xu Qing finished explaining the current situation and said softly: "Your Highness, I mean, we will directly kill in the Qingming Gorge. ā
Tang Qinian frowned and said: "This place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, I don't know what reason the general has?"
Xu Qing replied simply: "Because we are the regular army of the Tang Dynasty." ā
Tang Qinian smiled bitterly and replied, "General, I think it's good to die fewer Tang Dynasty soldiers." ā
"Your Highness, judging from the rebels' choice of cities or the current appearance of the rebels based on intelligence, the rebel general is definitely not a peasant who can only wield a hoe. ā
"He knows. There are many ways to attack a city, but if we look at the location of the city with triangular supply, no matter which city we attack, the other two cities will give the attacked city a strong supply, and the siege will cause us more attrition. Of course, this is the premise that the Qingzhou border army does not make a move, but I don't seem to have any intention to make a move. ā
"Let's not talk about the Qingzhou border army here, if we choose Qingming Gorge, because of the terrain factors and the narrow relationship between the frontal road, the competition is not the ability of the conventional army. It's about whether the practitioner is strong or not. ā
Tang Qinian and Zhang Xiaodao suddenly realized.
Although a cultivator has the strength of ordinary people, it is not uncommon for tens of thousands of people to be killed by random arrows in siege battles, not to mention that the Qi Acceptance Method has swept the world for thirty years, and there is that person in the Tang Dynasty Army who is not a Qi practitioner?
Unless the realm reaches the realm of divine powers, who can resist the ten thousand cultivators? However, cultivators above the realm of divine powers in the world can be counted by pinching their fingers.
But in the jungle and high mountains, it is different, and powerful cultivators can rely on the terrain and environment to inflict greater lethality. Ordinary Qi cultivators, even soldiers, can only be slaughtered in this kind of terrain.
The two of them were thinking for a while, and Xu Qing continued: "Among the cultivators in this world, I am half of the Tang Dynasty. Just a rebel, how can you fight with us here?"
Tang Qinian responded: "What the general said is that after the popularization of the Qi Nai method in the world thirty years ago, the war situation has changed. ā
Xu Qing sighed: "Presumably, King Wuding and King Zhenjiang have already thought of today's situation. If there are another thirty years of recuperation, the Tang Dynasty will sweep the world. ā
Zhang Xiaodao heard the deep meaning of the Qi Acceptance Method for the first time, and couldn't help but sigh at the eyes of the teacher and the monk.
Look at the world. The dominance of the Tang Dynasty was based on the soundness of the law, the dominance of the Holy See in the Western Regions was based on religious beliefs, the Great Wilderness was more straightforward, and the dominance of the Temple was only based on force.
On the whole, it is not a good thing for the Western Regions to have the Qi Law sweeping the world, because only the ignorant are loyal followers of faith, although the Great Wilderness Temple has obtained good seedlings from many tribes because of the Qi Law sweeping the world, but the Great Wilderness tribes based on military rule have also been at war because of this.
The Tang Dynasty is different, the dominance of the Tang Dynasty is based on the law, so the Qi Law is beneficial and harmless to the Tang Dynasty, and now the war is resuming, which changes the decision of the battle pattern in the world, will have a far-reaching impact, and can be called the most important decision in the history of the Tang Dynasty.
Based on this, the generals of the Tang Dynasty already had a cognition of the new type of war, so Xu Qing boldly proposed that if they wanted to go, they would take this most difficult road, but the most rebel life.
Tang Qinian sighed in admiration and said, "General Xu Qing, I can play the drums." ā
Xu Qing's face changed, although his face was extremely dark, but the change was too drastic, making his face a few points whiter, and he immediately said: "The second prince must not." ā
Tang Qinian shook his hand and said: "Presumably, my participation in the army will boost morale." ā
Xu Qing couldn't refute, but he still said: "Your Highness, the sword on the battlefield has no eyes, even if you don't go to the front line and only sit in the camp, if something happens, I can't afford it." ā
"What happened in the camp?"
Xu Qingtuan raised his eyebrows and said: "Previously, Li Wan'er of the Yueming Palace repaired a book, and the city said that there must be people from the Fuzhou Society, both in the army and in the Yueming Palace, so the general must not let His Highness take risks." ā
Tang Qinian had a look of disgust on his face when he heard the word Fuzhou Hui, and said resolutely: "The emperor fights in the south and the north, and fights all his life, and when my father was young, he ate and drank with the warriors in the army, how can I not go?"
Carrying out the emperor and His Majesty, Xu Qing was a little helpless.
Zhang Xiaodao finally spoke at this time: "I wonder if the general has a small soldier in the forward battalion?"
Tang Qinian laughed and said, "Xiaodao, you'd better stay by my side." ā
Zhang Xiaodao raised his head, looked at Tang Qinian and said, "I am a border soldier, so there is no reason to see the war and not participate in it?"
Xu Qing said at this time: "Even if you don't want to go, I will pull you up." ā
"Ugh. Zhang Xiaodao asked, "Why?"
"Sir's disciple, it is just right for this battle, and more importantly, you are very strong, and a very strong person can make many people survive. ā
"General, this is a great word. ā

Zhang Xiaodao wants to participate in the war, and he definitely doesn't want to die again. First, as a student of Mr., if he is not invited to fight, naturally no one can force him, but if he wants to return to Shengjing, he will inevitably be scolded with a split head and a face, and he has not forgotten the three sentences that Mr. said when he left.
Second, he believed in his own ability, especially in the mountains and forests, he would definitely bring great trouble to the rebels, and he also hoped that his soldiers who survived the Tang Dynasty could die fewer people.
So. He took the initiative to invite the battle, but it was exactly what Xu Qing wanted.
The Spirit Source Realm is not very high in this world, but if you really want to say how many people have reached this level, it is rare, not to mention that Zhang Xiaodao is not an ordinary Spirit Source Realm.
Xu Qing finally finalized the plan and spent another afternoon working on the details and various plans.
In the evening, Tang Qinian ordered a banquet, and the Wujiang City, which had already been prepared, was crowded. Hundreds of people walked out of Wujiang City to march for 30,000 soldiers.
Zhang Xiaodao was originally a border soldier, and he naturally got along with the soldiers very well, and he toasted all the way unconsciously drank himself a little high.
The banquet came to an abrupt end, and the army was obviously still restrained.
Zhang Xiaodao returned to his room. Lying on the bed, I was confused, not thinking about anything, but seeing what I wanted to see the most.
As he had been in his childhood, he opened his eyes in a dream. I couldn't see any scenes, but I saw Wang Luohan with a smiling face.
Wang Luohan is still dressed in white, elegant and holy. She looked at Zhang Xiaodao with a playful smile, but heard Zhang Xiaodao ask: "Where did you go, haven't you even slept in the past three years?"
Wang Luohan didn't speak, walked to Zhang Xiaodao's side, and hugged his waist.
Zhang Xiaodao, who was originally a little angry, was melted by tenderness in an instant, although she couldn't feel her body temperature in the dream, but the sense of steadiness in her heart couldn't be faked.
Zhang Xiaodao also hugged her with his backhand, and then pretended to be angry and said: "If you run away again, be careful that Lao Tzu doesn't want you." ā
Wang Luohan snuggled up to Zhang Xiaodao's chest and praised: "You are the best." ā
Zhang Xiaodao smirked, pressed her head with his hand, and boasted to himself: "When you are a man, you are naturally better than a woman." ā
From time to time, the two separated, but they held hands crookedly, and the two sides asked each other about their experiences and lives in the past three years, but basically Zhang Xiaodao was talking, and Wang Luohan was listening, because she had only done one thing in the past three years, that is, to look at stones.
"After the accident in Lingyin County, I entered the border army. ā
"Later, I realized that the affairs of Lingyin County were just planned by one person in order to fight for power and profit. ā
"So I have to kill him. ā
"Did you kill it?"
"Killed, but it's very dangerous, if it weren't for him being too light on the enemy, I know him well enough, and with the help of the master, it may not be who dies or who lives. ā
When Wang Luohan heard this, he didn't blame Zhang Xiaodao, men always have to do something that must be done, and this kind of thing often looks extremely stupid, but without this energy, how can a man be called a man?
"You've really only been looking at one stone for the past three years?"
"yes. ā
"What's there to see then?"
"There are words on this stone. ā
"What is written can be read for three years?"
"I can't tell, you won't remember it after reading it, but you understand something. ā
Zhang Xiaodao was stunned and asked, "Then what do you understand?"
Wang Luohan replied honestly: "It's hard to say, but the fight is even more powerful." ā
Zhang Xiaodao said proudly: "I'm not bad at fighting now." ā
Wang Luohan looked at him and said, "One finger." ā
Zhang Xiaodao understood that one finger meant that Wang Luohan could defeat him with one finger, and he couldn't help but be shocked.
At the beginning, Zhang Xiaodao's level in Lingyin County was too low, so naturally he didn't know that Wang Luohan was so powerful, and he had never seen it with his own eyes, but now if Wang Luohan can defeat him with one finger, it will be at least the peak of life.
So, he asked weakly, "Daughter-in-law, I think it's necessary for us to have a family meeting." ā
"Family meetings?what?"
"For example, if we talk about when we will have a little knife, for example, you will give me a thorough underneath. ā
Wang Luohan replied happily: "Okay." (To be continued......)
