"My lord, you are just kidding me. How could I have such talent?"
Wu Ming declined repeatedly.
Cao Su said displeasedly: "People say you are quite talented in poetry. Can you compose an impromptu poem based on this situation?"
Looking far away from Xiguan, the sky is thick and the clouds are high, the ground is covered with yellow sand, and the north wind is blowing randomly.
Just looking at the scenery and artistic conception is enough to reach the realm of poetry.
Wu Ming still declined: "When I write poems, they are all critical."
"It doesn't matter, there's no one here, I just want to listen to you and cheer me up."
The two of them were standing on the city tower chatting. Apart from these two people, there was indeed only Zhao Xi, the leader of Cao Su's personal soldiers, standing at the edge.
Zhao Xi suppressed a smile and pretended to look straight ahead calmly.
Wu Ming glared at him: "Why are you laughing?"
Zhao Xi quickly denied: "I didn't laugh."
"You obviously smiled..."
Wu Ming was forced to have no choice but to rack his brains and start thinking.
After a while, he still had no idea and was scratching his head in embarrassment.
"Autumn comes and the scenery on the fortress is strange, and the geese in the capital are gone without paying attention. There are sounds from all directions, thousands of miles away, and the long smoke sets and the sun sets alone, and the city is closed."
Cao Su suddenly spoke and recited a few lines of poetry.
Wu Ming was so shocked that his jaw dropped. How could Cao Su, a big boss like him, still be able to write poems out of his mouth?
But why is the format of the poem so strange?
He didn't think about it carefully, he just looked at Cao Su with surprised eyes.
Then he couldn't help but ask: "What then?"
"What then?"
"Sir, this poem feels like it's half finished?"
"No, this is all. If you feel it's not enough, you can add a little more."
Cao Su looked very casual, which made Wu Ming even more uncomfortable.
After all, he was born as a scholar, and he could be considered a bit of a poet. Although he did not have Cao Su's ability to "write poems out of mouth", he always valued poems and songs very much.
Cao Su has such great talent and inspiration, why not continue to work?
Maybe this poem will be passed down through the ages and its name will be remembered in history.
Now if we do the same thing, wouldn’t it be a waste of natural resources?
"Sir, writing poetry is not cooking, so how can you just add some to it?"
"You'd better take the time to fill in the poem, don't waste such good poems."
Wu Ming tried to persuade him sincerely.
Cao Su just got interested and muttered a few sentences casually.
How could he have the heart to write any poems? He indeed only remembered half of this poem, leaving him to fill in the remaining half. How could he know these things?
So he smiled and shook his head, rejecting Wu Ming's proposal.
"Woo——"
At this time, a thick horn sound suddenly sounded in Xiguan.
The vicissitudes of life are ancient and simple, with a rumbling fighting spirit spreading towards the distant sky.
Above the Western Mountain, on top of thousands of clouds, the horn sounds, seeming to indicate that the entire empire's war machine is in motion again.
In the twilight of decay and defeat, forced activation.
"Woo——"
The sound of the trumpet continued.
"Sir, it was the guard Yang Rui who gave the order to blow the war horn."
"Prior to this, Yang Rui has received an imperial edict, and the defense at Xiguan will be stricter in the near future."
"When the bugle sound is over, the generals and captains of thousands of troops are going to gather at the school ground. Yang Rui orders the troops."
Not long after, Zhang Ke came in a hurry.
He reported the military situation to Cao Su.
Cao Su is today's pass general, and guarding the pass is more important than anything else.
Just in time to avoid Yang Rui's troops on the battlefield.
Cao Su tapped his toes lightly, and his figure jumped out and landed on the top of the tallest tower at the pass.
He looked towards the pass and saw many generals wearing black armor emerging from the houses at the pass and rushing towards the school grounds.
Some people who have strong internal energy and relatively good Qinggong can also fly over the walls.
After a few leaps, the figure disappeared.
"Yang Rui is starting to order troops."
"Yang Rui has received the imperial edict. I don't know how many troops will be sent from Xiguan."
"Xiguan is a dangerous place, so most of the troops must be left behind. The troops here will most likely become the vanguard of the next wave of troops sent by the imperial court to Xizhou."
Cao Su knew clearly that the Forbidden Army was the strongest army in the imperial court.
The 300,000 forbidden troops guard the divine capital and are generally not easily dispatched.
It seemed that the situation in Xizhou was more serious than he thought.
He thought silently, listening to the long-lost horn sound.
The mood is calm and there is no fluctuation.
.........
.........
A few days later, Yang Rui ordered 10,000 troops and horses at Xiguan.
Specifically selected from the original sequence, they did not participate in the subsequent West Gate Guards.
At the same time, the Xiguan Pass began to implement a more stringent censorship system, and many caravans and people who did not meet the regulations were blocked from the pass.
Some caravans and people who got news of the war in Xizhou temporarily reduced the number of people leaving customs.
Even after a few days, very few people left the customs. They were all people from Xizhou, dragging their families with them and wanting to enter the customs.
Although these people are tired of life, many of them have obtained road documents, so they cannot be treated as refugees.
Yang Rui only limited the flow of people entering the customs. These people must be inspected one by one before they can be put into the customs.
At the same time, the imperial general who will go to Xizhou to quell the rebellion this time has also been confirmed.
The emperor ordered General Zuo Feng Yuchan to lead 50,000 imperial troops to leave the capital and go to Xizhou to quell the rebellion.
Of these 50,000 forbidden troops, 20,000 were sent from each of the northern and southern camps in Shendu, and 10,000 were allocated from Xiguan as the vanguard.
After Xiguan allocates 10,000 troops, the city of God will continue to replenish them in the future, and the garrison of Xiguan will be increased to 100,000 to protect the city of God.
"General Zuo Feng Yuchan..."
When Cao Su heard the news, he suddenly felt dizzy.
He didn't stay in the divine capital for long, but he also heard about the discord between the left and right generals.
General Feng Yuchan of the Left is different from Wang Meng. The Feng family has been a famous general for generations. When Feng Yuchan was young, he led his army into Mobei alone and beheaded thousands of people before returning. After that, he served in the army for half his life and rose to the position of General of the Left with his illustrious military exploits.
, was granted the title of Marquis of Duxiang.
In the eyes of the world, he, Cao Su, relied on the appreciation of General Right to make his fortune step by step during the Wanping Rebellion.
Therefore, Cao Su and General You belong to the same family. Even if General Qin Hu, General Right, keeps a low profile in the world, this cannot be changed.

"General Zuo arrived at Xiguan in three days, but his army is a little slower. It just set off from Shendu and is expected to arrive at Xiguan in ten days."
In Xiguan, Zhang Ke reported the situation to Cao Su.
Cao Su understood that Feng Yuchan arrived at Xiguan first in order to dispatch the vanguard troops.
Generally, for an army of 50,000 people, there should not be too many vanguards, usually only one-tenth.
Yang Rui selected elite soldiers and generals in advance, which was actually to take the lead for Feng Yuchan's selection.
Cao Su ordered in a deep voice: "Let brothers be prepared. If General Zuo orders me to fight, then brothers must be able to set up camp and leave Xiguan within an hour."
Cao Su also needs to be prepared.
The terrain in Xizhou is complex, and most of his soldiers are from the south.
When southerners go north, in addition to normal fighting, they also have to adapt to the various climates in Xizhou.
........
It's night and Xiguan is brightly lit.
In the past few days, the atmosphere in Xiguan has been solemn, and at night, more and more people are lighting lamps.
Patrols have been strengthened within the pass, and the pass protection array is in operation all the time.
When ascetics come to Xiguan, they can see the protective formation as thin as cicada wings.
There are some Dao rhyme textures on top of the formation. Ordinary people walking through the passage below will not trigger the formation. Only when masters pass by in the air, the formation will sound a warning.
It only has a warning function and does not have much offensive power.
But if you pass through the formation, you will inevitably alert the alchemy monks who are stationed in Xiguan. In addition, there are many Jiujiu warriors in Xiguan. Even top-level masters will not be able to gain favor.
Cao Su practiced hard in the camp.
It has been more than a month since he entered the fourth level, and his level is stable.
The qi, blood and internal energy in the body move to a new level.
The internal energy of the fourth grade is much stronger than that of the fifth grade, so that a lot of excess and floating internal energy surges towards the internal organs.
When Cao Su was in the qi and blood stage, he strengthened his internal organs for a period of time, but it was only a general practice.
Not professional enough or precise enough.
At this time, after entering the fourth level, the internal energy began to comprehensively strengthen the training of the internal organs, intentionally or unintentionally. His internal organs became stronger and more powerful as the internal energy continued to wash away.
The stronger the internal organs and meridians, the more internal energy they can hold.
The fourth grade is only the last step away from the top grade.
Only a body that is strong enough and has cultivated its inner strength to a certain level can the inner strength be transformed into agang.
Once the internal energy is transformed into Gang, you can step into the upper level, achieve short-distance flight, and your combat power will increase by leaps and bounds.
Cao Su felt that although he had stabilized the fourth-grade realm, he still seemed to be a long way from the top-grade.
But this does not mean that his combat power is in the early stage of level four.
As early as when he first entered the fourth level, his combat power doubled, and his physical strength reached tens of thousands of kilograms. He could even deal with a peak fourth-level genius like Shen Xuefeng with ease.
For Cao Su, the fourth level is a new stage.
A new stage to quickly improve your true combat power.
Now every step forward in the fourth-grade stage can bring about substantial changes in his combat power.
