In the early morning, the sun was shining, and through the layers of defense in the courtyard of three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, Li Weiming came to the outside of the barracks.

The guards at the door wanted to stop it, but Dong Songchen outside the door shook his head to stop him.

The emperor decided to send troops to reinforce the Western Xia, and the Western Xia princess Li Weiming was already a harem concubine of the Great Song Dynasty. Since she was already the emperor's concubine, and Western Xia was dying, there seemed to be nothing to hide and worry about.

"Mother, you sit."

Dong Songchen took a chair out of nowhere and respectfully invited Li Weiming to sit down.

Li Weiming's face turned red, just overnight, although she and Emperor Song had no husband and wife, she was already the concubine of Emperor Song.

His eyes swept to the teaching field, Luo Shichang was watching the exercises of the Song army's soldiers, and from time to time he exchanged words with Cui He, the Sichuan envoy, and didn't know what he was talking about.

Those Song soldiers were dark and strong, well-trained, and they made people scary when they looked at them. Can they save Great Xia?

It's a pity that there are too few such majestic warriors in Western Xia.

Several officers came over and went straight to the barracks of the Chinese army, and when they walked in, they talked to Dong Songchen in a low voice, as if pleading.

Li Weiming looked carefully and couldn't help but be taken aback.

The three sergeants were all women, and they were all extremely young, and they were all good-looking, and two of them were outstanding, and they did not seem to be inferior to themselves.

Several female soldiers pleaded a few words, and Dong Songchen was full of helplessness and came over and entered the barracks.

Seeing Li Weiming, several female soldiers came over, and one of the round-faced female soldiers looked at Li Weiming and looked at the chair next to her.

"You're the princess of Xixia?"

"Who are you?"

Feeling that the other party seemed to have bad intentions, Li Weiming replied with a straight face.

There are also young and beautiful women in the camp, and it seems that the military discipline of the Song army is not very good.

"No wonder the emperor is fascinated, and he really has a bit of a posture."

The round-faced female soldier looked at Li Weiming and said coldly:

"Do you have no men in Western Xia, and you came to our Great Song Dynasty to move the rescue soldiers? There were only a few Tatars, and the Western Xia drowned the Tatars with a mouthful of spit! ”

Li Weiming was stunned for a moment, thinking about why this female soldier was so rude and arrogant, a beautiful goose-faced female soldier next to him came up, quickly pulled the round-faced female soldier away, and quickly apologized to Li Weiming.

"Princess, she didn't mean to. Princess, forgive me, princess! ”

Another handsome female soldier also hurriedly pulled the round-faced female soldier aside, but she didn't speak.

"What, am I wrong? Is there any reason why my Great Song soldiers went to Western Xia to be born and die? ”

The round-faced female soldier did not give up, and her mouth was chattering.

"Sisi, this is Your Majesty's will. Don't say any more! Aren't you also going to rescue Xixia, don't say it! ”

The goose-faced beauty persuaded the woman named "Sisi" again.

Rescue Western Xia?

Li Weiming couldn't help but be stunned again.

Isn't it a joke that these beautiful women ran to rescue Xixia?

While speaking, Dong Songchen came out, his face was sad, and he shook his head at the three female soldiers.

"Your Majesty said that this time I went to Western Xia, only male soldiers, except women. This is a military order, and no one is allowed to disobey it! ”

The three female soldiers looked at each other and left listlessly, and Li Weiming couldn't help but stop Dong Songchen.

"Father-in-law, who is that round-faced female soldier, why is she a little rude? What do they do? ”

There are two female soldiers who are very beautiful, they can't be the concubines of Emperor Song, right?

"Hui Niangniang, all three of them are graduates of Jinling Lecture and Martial Arts Hall, and they serve as medical officers in the army. The round-faced one is called Wei Sisi, the daughter of Wei Liweng, the squire of the military department, who is a little unruly. ”

Dong Songchen accompanied the smiling face, and Li Weiming was distracted for a while.

Women can go to the martial arts hall, they can also be medical officers, and they also have the daughter of the squire of the military department.

Da Song is vigorously forging ahead, and has left her Daxia far behind.

Now that I think about it, those female medical officers are heroic, confident and independent, which really makes her envious.

Li Weiming was silent and didn't speak, Dong Songchen waved his hand and walked away with the guards.

Li Weiming did not sit down, but stood outside the camp gate and pricked up his ears.

In the barracks, Cao Youwen, Yu Jue, Lu Wende, Cao Youwan, Wang Jian, Lu Yuanting, Jiang Wanzai, Cao Shixiong, Yang Daquan and other generals stood solemnly.

Zhao Hong looked at the young generals below who were alive and well, and he was also excited.

These officers of the Young Zhuang faction will be the future of this nation and the backbone of the country in the future.

"Cao Youwen, Yu Jue, Wang Jian, Cao Youwan, Lu Wende, Jiang Wanzai, Lu Yuanting, brothers, everyone has worked hard!"

Zhao Hong said "brother", and the generals below were flattered, and they all nodded their heads and smiled.

The emperor is very fond of the disciples of the martial arts.

"Some people may be puzzled by my reinforcements to Western Xia, but I don't want to explain more. Next spring and summer, and in the years to come, you will understand my painstaking efforts. ”

Zhao Hong made an opening remark, pointing to the importance of border defense.

"As soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, you should know that the fate of the Great Song Dynasty is in your hands. Whether the Great Song Dynasty continues to sink or gain a new life, if the Great Song Dynasty wants to survive and enrich the country and strengthen the army, it depends on whether there are batches of soldiers who do not hesitate and shed their blood. Can you tell me that you are such soldiers? ”

"Yes!"

All the officers spoke in unison, and everyone was impassioned.

Zhao Hong nodded, satisfied with the officers' performance.

"As for why Xia sent 10,000 elites to reinforce Western Xia, I had no choice but to do it. I have only been on the throne for a year, and the Great Song Dynasty needs time to recruit and train troops, otherwise, with these officers and soldiers now facing the Tatar iron cavalry, wouldn't this let them go to death? ”

Zhao Hong told the truth, and the officers all nodded.

Let's just say that the current border army, the artillery can't fight, and the earth-shaking thunder can't be used, so they can't compete with the Tatar cavalry, it's purely looking for death.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send your ministers to Western Xia? The minister is a native of the northwest, he is more familiar with the place, and he can also talk to the party, so let the minister go! ”

Yu Jue led the army to Western Xia, Cao You was silent, but Cao Youwan was anxious.

Fighting in the northwest, how could they, the local generals in the northwest, be willing to be behind others and let outsiders take the lead.

When Zhao Hong arrived at the Lizhou camp, he happened to go to Lizhou East Road to escort firearms, and he was still a little late. thought that he would be reprimanded by the emperor, but he was praised for being diligent in the king's affairs.

His brother Cao Youwen is the same. Because of the training of the new army in the camp of Lizhou West Road, they also failed to arrive in time, but the two brothers, without exception, were appreciated by the emperor.

"Cao Youwan sent Yu Jue to Western Xia because Yu Jue was good at guarding and being bold and careful. You are good at attacking, but going to Western Xia is to defend the city. Moreover, there are generals such as Yang Daquan and Zhang Zhongxia in the army. Can you understand my painstaking efforts? ”

In the face of these irritable and unetiquette rectums, Zhao Hong smiled and did not move at all.

"Your Majesty, it is extremely dangerous for Xixia to defend the city, so let the ministers and Yu Du go! Perhaps not only to defend the city, but also to go out of the city to fight the Tatar army. Ministers come in handy! ”

Cao Youwan still didn't give up, and stepped forward to play hard.

"Cao Youwan, don't retreat yet! In front of Your Majesty, you must not be rude! ”

Cao Youwen shouted in a low voice, there is a difference between the monarch and the minister, and the younger brother is too presumptuous.

"Your Majesty, the minister is rude!"

Cao Youwan reacted and retreated to his original position.

"Cao Youwan, if you and Yu Jue both go to Western Xia, who will preside over the military administration of the Lizhou East Road? Aren't you embarrassed? ”

Zhao Hong laughed.

Sending the main and deputy coaches of Lizhou East Road to Xixia is just the right thing to run in, which may not be a bad thing.

"Your Majesty, there is no war in Hanzhong for the time being, besides, even if there is, Lizhou West Road will bear the brunt. There are still Jiang Wanzai on Lizhou East Road, and there will be no chaos. Your Majesty, please go to fight in Western Xia, please allow Your Majesty's permission! ”

Hearing Zhao Hong's intentions, Cao Youwan hurriedly stepped forward to ask for orders again.

Zhao Hong groaned slightly, and the inspection made a decision.

"It's okay, the two generals of my Lizhou East Road, let's go out together."

Cao Youwan understands the party's words, and it is indeed conducive to communicating with the Western Xia military. Besides, the military heart is available, and he doesn't want to cold the blood of the soldiers.

"Your Majesty, obey the order!"

"Your Majesty is hardworking, and the ministers will do their best to share your Majesty's worries!"

Cao Youwan was overjoyed and stepped forward with Yu Jue to thank him.

Seeing the joy of his eyebrows, Zhao Hong couldn't help but smile.

Such a hot-blooded person, even if there is rudeness, he will not care.

Yu Jue and Cao Youwan went to Western Xia, and Jiang Wanzai temporarily presided over military affairs on the Lizhou East Road. If there are major side affairs on Lizhou West Road and Lizhou East Road, military affairs will be dispatched by Cao Youwen for the time being. ”

There is no doubt about employing people, Cao Youwen is cautious and full of courage, and Zhao Hong is completely relieved. As for Jiang Wanzai, he is also a macho man, so he doesn't need to worry.

"Obey the order!"

Cao Youwen and Jiang Wanzai clasped their fists one after another and bowed.

The emperor has always been bold in employing people, regardless of age and experience, and everyone is convinced of the officers.

"Brothers, they all say that the Tatar army is invincible in the world, if you don't let you confront them head-on, then my Great Song Dynasty will never be able to become a strong army. I want to ask, my generals of the Great Song Dynasty, are you afraid of the Tatar army? ”

Zhao Hong asked seriously.

These young guys, who blow up at a point, just don't know if it's really bloody brave.

"Your Majesty, what is there to fear about the Tatar army!"

"Your Majesty, don't be afraid! As the saying goes, a mule is a horse, and it has to be pulled out for a walk. The head has dropped and the bowl is big, and we will never disappoint Your Majesty! ”

Sure enough, the young generals were impassioned and shouted one after another.

"Don't be so confident, I've heard that the Tatar army is an elite warrior bred in the bitter cold land. Are you really not afraid? ”

Zhao Hong continued to arch the fire, paying attention to the reaction of the officers.

"Your Majesty, the officers who came out of our Jinling Martial Arts Hall are the elite!"

"Yes, our Great Song Dynasty soldiers are the elite!"

The young officers were enthusiastic and shouted loudly.
