At the junction of Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty, the loess inside the Yumen Pass was covered with thousands of white tents, which seemed to be the barracks of the military brigades stationed here. At the center of the many tents is a slightly larger, wood-paneled temporary house. Many soldiers walked from tent to tent, patrolling diligently. There is a lot of wind and dust, no rain and dust, and the sand and soil rise everywhere, which is really dirty, and it is really not a place for people to live. After a while, a woman dressed plainly and undressed quickly came out of a tent and hurried into the wooden room in the center, where she looked as if something had happened to her. This woman's face is soft, tranquil and unobtrusive, restrained and ladylike.

When she arrived at the wooden house, the woman said: "Dad, it's not good, just now General Zhou went to inspect outside the Yumen Pass, but never came back, I heard the sentry on the city tower say that General Zhou has been captured by the Western Xia soldiers, how should this be good?" The father she called was the commander of the Xihe army, the generalissimo of Xihe, Zhao Buwei, and this woman was the marshal's only daughter, Zhao Qingling. I saw that Zhao Buduan, who was sitting on the chair in front of the table, immediately slapped the table, and the wine bottles and other items on the table jumped up and roared: "Why didn't General Zhou come to report me when he was leaving, and he went to investigate the enemy situation by hiding from me? Do you know that he is disobeying military orders? Don't come back to my barracks in the future, I will ask the coachman to take you back to Bianjing later." The woman was puzzled and asked, "Why, Dad, I just wanted to help you come to Yumen Pass." Zhao Buwei yelled angrily again: "If you can really help me, I will be idle, I should not report it, I have delayed it for so long to report, do you know what situation has been caused now? You have a daughter's family, why are you so attached to the battlefield, ah? It's fun to fight, isn't it? I'll send you back and stay at home with my mother." The woman was forced to burst out a few tears, seeing that her skin was white and tender, she could be regarded as a lady who had enjoyed Qingfu, and she should rarely suffer such grievances from childhood to adulthood. She looked at the marshal and said, "My daughter is not doing well, please deal with it with military law!" and then knelt on the ground, Zhao Buyan saw it, and his tone immediately softened a lot, and said: "You, what are you doing, don't be stupid, get up with me." In the future, I will order someone to take care of the affairs of the army, and you don't have to ask about anything. With that, he immediately walked out of the house.

Zhao Buwei came to the tent of the main council and said to several generals: "General Zhou has been ambushed by the enemy on impulse, everyone must calm down, now is an eventful season, I don't want anyone to make any more mistakes." If we attack rashly now, it may anger the Tanguts, and General Zhou's life will not be guaranteed, so for the time being, let the whole army form a long snake formation, stand by at the Yumen Pass, and the commander will personally rescue General Zhou. Everyone jointly dissuaded the marshal, saying: "You can't go, if you want to go, we will go! What do you want to miss, how can we still fight, and how can the Great Song Dynasty resist the Western Xia army? "The subordinates had no choice but to obey the order.

Outside the Yumen Pass, the same is the wind and sand, the strong wind is endless, through a sand dune, the rammed weird and unpredictable Dangxiang clan mud array immediately comes into view, this kind of array is easy to defend and difficult to attack, interspersed freely, the Western Xia soldiers can bend the bow and lead the arrow in the earthwork gap during the period without anyone noticing.

Zhao Buwei held a long sword, step by step very carefully moved to the earthwork, and looked at the end of the depths of the earthwork, the military camp where the Tangut people were stationed was also a white "bag" like a starry little by little, looking at its arrangement plan, it seemed to be a quadrangular array. Zhao Buduan saw that there was no Xixia eyeliner activity around the earthwork, and then his feet crossed between the countless earthworks, a little left and right, and jumped silently to the dense place of the camp.

Zhao Buwei soon heard a loud beating and scolding sound coming from front of him, and the voice was indeed General Zhou's.

It turned out that a group of Western Xia soldiers hung General Zhou up, and were asking about the operational secrets of the Song army, and General Zhou did not say a word, so they whipped with whips, and shouted: "Do you say or not?"

Zhao Buwei moved closer, picked up a few stones from the ground, and then suddenly threw them into the air, only to see his sword come out of the sheath, and slash those stones with great speed, and the stones immediately rushed into the distance, and the good brains of the soldiers guarding General Zhou in the middle fainted on the spot. Zhao Buwei immediately jumped over, put down General Zhou, who had fainted in the air, and then hunched on his back, about to leave. Suddenly, a Tangut man who was also dressed in aristocratic clothes fell from the sky, drew his sword and pointed at Zhao Buwei, and said: "The marshal is so good-working, no wonder the generals sent by the lord of the country have let you send them away easily, there are two hits! Oh, I forgot to tell you who I am, I'm really sorry." I am Li Zhongyuan, the newly appointed commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force by the lord of the country, and my army will break through all the checkpoints of your Great Song Dynasty and occupy your capital within a year. Hehe, I'm afraid you'll die faster with him on your back. "Immediately swing a knife and slash it.

Although this person's knife skills are not exquisite, full of flaws, but the offensive is rapid, and the moves are fatal, it can be seen that this person has spent a lot of effort to practice the knife technique, but it is a pity that he did not get the guidance of the master. Zhao Buduan fought with him with a sword while carrying a person on his back, the sword came to block, the sword bayonet was carried, and the two did not win or lose. After fighting for a while, Zhao Buwei heard that there were patrolling Xixia soldiers coming, and immediately suddenly, pushed up with both hands, and bounced General Zhou's body into the air, and then his body quickly jumped and spun to attack Li Zhongyuan, Li Zhongyuan didn't have time to dodge at all, and the speed of the sword was not as fast as the sword, so he could only make his body retreat backwards to avoid jumping consecutive splits. Zhao Buwei saw that Li Zhongyuan couldn't parry, and his body suddenly floated sideways in the air and kicked Li Zhongyuan repeatedly, and the last kick was even stronger, directly kicking people away. This matter General Zhou's body fell from the sky, and Zhao Buwei took it on his back and drove him back to the Song military camp.

When the soldiers on patrol in Western Xia saw the general fall to the ground, they immediately came over to help him up. Li Zhongyuan suffered a slight internal injury, his chest ached, and he couldn't help but sigh: "The commander of the Song army has such martial arts, and my blueprint for Western Xia to swallow Liao and destroy the Song Dynasty, conquer Tubo, and merge Dali may never be realized." "After getting up, he immediately ordered the whole army to withdraw, and the class division was happy.

Zhao Buwei rescued General Zhou, and the enemy army suddenly retreated, and the court was extremely happy about this. Soon after, the marshal suddenly received the emperor's decree to let him return to Beijing to receive the reward, just as General Zhou's body had recovered, so the marshal ordered him to temporarily take his place, and go back to Beijing by himself, by the way, you can also go home to see, people who have been in the army for a long time are more nostalgic for the happy moments at home.

After many days of traveling, Chen Kesong finally rushed back to Shizhong Mountain from the north and arrived at a very quiet mountain house. He reported what he had seen and heard on this trip and some important news to his master, Wu Changsong, who shook his head and said, "I'm afraid there won't be such a big business this year. The apprentice asked him why, Wu Changsong said: "In the past, the martial arts alliance leaders elected were still considered to have two martial arts, and they were also regarded as famous people on one side, and there were many people who wanted to kill them, so they were willing to make a price, and now they have selected a million big iron, and there is a garbage on Lushan, and no one will buy his head at all." Chen Kesong said to the master in disappointment: "This person killed my father, he has been learning martial arts with the master for many years, and he has never had time to take revenge, but now the master is against the apprentice to take revenge, and the apprentice is not convinced." Wu Changsong was suddenly stunned, and then said loudly: "What is Master doing, I believe that you who were only seven years old thirteen years ago already understood, if you want to survive in our business, you don't have your own hatred, whoever gives more money, we will help whoever kills, and the person he wants to kill is our enemy, don't tell me about them killing your father." After speaking, he walked away, Chen Kesong looked at the ground, without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
