Under the bright moonlight, a bolt of lightning flashed across an official road connecting the north gate of Feng'an City, and in an instant it came to the closed north gate of Feng'an City. Yue Qianming controlled the high-speed Lidian Ox to stop, I saw that the Lidian Ox did not hesitate at all from moving to stillness, and stopped steadily in front of the north gate of Feng'an City.
Yue Qianming took out half a black soldier's talisman with an eagle's head engraved on it from his arms, raised it high, and injected a little blood into the soldier's talisman. He only heard a unique and loud eagle cry that echoed through the night sky. A troop quickly gathered on the gate tower. After carefully identifying the eagle's roar, a city guard general urged the guards to open the city gate quickly.
The eagle roar represents Yue Qianming's identity and also represents the emergency military affairs. Even though it is already the curfew, the gate of the imperial capital will still be opened for him. Because everyone in the Zhao Xin Kingdom knows that the people of the Zhao Xin Kingdom The four great generals will never do anything detrimental to the country, and will never betray the country, because their blood and souls have long been integrated with the country. Therefore, the general named Feng'an Town guarding the north gate did not hesitate. , after identifying Yue Qianming's identity, he immediately ordered the city gate to be opened.
Before the city gate was fully opened, Yue Qianming had already urged the electric ox to drive towards the imperial city, leaving only a shadow of electric light behind him. When Yue Qianming, wearing a black armor, arrived at the Xuanwu Gate of the imperial city At that moment, a fat man wearing a golden suit of armor came forward. Who else could it be but Yuchi Zhongming.
Although Yuchi Zhongming was familiar with Yue Qianming, he still followed the fixed process to verify Yue Qianming's identity, and then asked Yue Qianming in a low voice: "What happened tonight? First, that guy Kongyu detained the forbidden palace at night, and then you released the eagle Xiao went into the city all night and rushed straight to the imperial city. What is the urgent matter that deserves the two of you to alert the emperor all night long?"
When Yue Qianming heard what Yuchi Zhongming said, his face became more solemn, and he only said: "The matter is urgent and top secret. You will know after it is over. I will go see you first."
After saying that he handed the electric ox to Yuchi Zhongming, the eunuch who was waiting here led Yue Qianming into the palace. The eunuch led Yue Qianming to a brightly lit palace. Then the eunuch who led the eunuch came in and announced that Yue Qianming was waiting outside. Although Yue Qianming still looked solemn at this time, he had recovered his composure. It was already late at night, but the words "Wude Palace" written on the plaque above the door of the palace The three characters are vaguely identifiable.
The leading eunuch came out and said: "General Qianming, your Majesty, let you in." Yue Qianming immediately walked up the steps and pushed the door in. He saw Zhao Lingyun, who was wearing purple and gold uniforms, and Zhao Lingyun, who was wearing a fiery red armor. Qin Kongyu stood in front of a huge map, frowning at the geographical situation of the southern border of Zhao Xin's country. Some important pass positions were covered with red flags. When they heard the sound of the door being pushed, both of them turned their heads. , Qin Kongyu and Yue Qianming said hello, and Zhao Lingyun came up to greet him, leaving Qin Kongyu still studying it carefully.
Looking at Yue Qianming's solemn expression, Zhao Lingyun knew that something urgent had happened, otherwise he would not have been so calm. Moreover, when the sound of the eagle roar reached the imperial city, someone would have come to report it. But Zhao Lingyun still relaxed. After calming down for a while, he relaxed his stiff waist from standing for a long time before asking: "Qian Ming, what happened that makes you so anxious? This is not like your style. Drink some water first, and then we will talk about it slowly. ." He said and pushed a tea bowl placed on the table towards Yue Qianming.
Yue Qianming took the tea bowl and looked at Zhao Lingyun's calmness. He also calmed down completely. Although he had never encountered such a dangerous battle on the northern border, he had been longing for many years and hoped to have a happy battle in his lifetime! Now that this opportunity has come, there is no reason to be afraid. Yue Qianming picked up the tea bowl and took a slow sip. It was the century-old Kirigakure tea, and his nervous nerves were relieved a lot.
After taking another sip of tea, he put down the teacup. Yue Qianming took out the bamboo tube in his arms and presented it to Zhao Lingyun. However, Zhao Lingyun did not open it and threw it directly on the table. He said to Yue Qianming: "Just say it! Let's talk over it. Talk and discuss."
Yue Qianming could only say: "A few days ago, I received a piece of information from a spy lurking in the Xia Geng Kingdom. Li Deming, the Yanzuo King of the Xia Geng Kingdom, led 30,000 red flame wolves out of Qingling, the capital of the Xia Geng Kingdom. City, its marching route seemed to be heading towards our northern border, but then no follow-up information came.
I sent a message to the Wujue Special Forces in the north asking them to send people to Xia Geng's country for latent investigation. However, no news came back from the three groups of personnel A, B, and C who lurked into Xia Geng's Xuanxuan detachment in the past few days. Until then. This morning, a soldier from Xuanhuan's B group was seriously injured and desperately tried to send back the news that King Yanzuo had led the Red Flame Wolf Cavalry towards our northern border. But it was not just 30,000 people, but more than 200,000 troops had been assembled. , including 50,000 spirit-capturing troops and 50,000 life-destroying troops from the Xia Geng Kingdom, as well as 70,000 regular defenders gathered from all over the Xia Geng Kingdom, who have attacked the weak points of our defense."
When Zhao Lingyun heard what Yue Qianming said, he rubbed his eyebrows and said: "It seems that the entire Jiunao Prefecture is attacking our Zhao Xin clan! General Qiyuan sent a military report this morning. The Dongman Kingdom has launched an attack on our eastern border. Kongyu has just received information that the Jinhai clan has also assembled 150,000 Wuqingque troops and 10,000 elite iron Buddha troops to attack our southern border. Now only the western border is still intact. There is no news. If the Meng Yuan clan in Dading Prefecture receives news, although they still have an unfinished war in Dading Prefecture, they will never let go of this opportunity to invade our Jiunao Prefecture, even if they only capture the enemy in Jiunao Prefecture. A bridgehead will be a threat to our Zhao Xin clan in the future."
Zhao Lingyun calmed down and continued to Qin Kongyu, who was wearing a fiery red armor, and continued: "We have just rehearsed the second step of the southern border deployment plan, with slight changes in the details. There are now 110,000 troops in the southern border. Just now The defense line has been redeployed, but the reality of the Jinhai Kingdom is still unknown.
The leader of the attack on our southern border this time is Jin Chengxiong, the Shangzhu Kingdom of Jinhai Kingdom. He is a veteran general. He is cautious by nature and will not dare to attack rashly. There will definitely be a period of confrontation to find out the strength of our defense line. But it is not guaranteed. Yes, if the opponent already has our new force defense map in hand, then the situation will be different.
So after you set off, I will send an Anxuan army of 20,000 people to secretly set off from elsewhere to rush to the southern border to support you. It will take about fifteen days. Kongyu, after you set off tomorrow and arrive at the southern border, you will combine the actual situation The situation is that we should seize the time to complete the second step of the deployment plan we just discussed. I ask you to hold on for fifteen days. After fifteen days, a support force will arrive. The name of this force is the Anxuan Army. You will see it then Launch a counterattack based on actual battlefield conditions."
Zhao Lingyun glanced at Qin Kongyu with worry, and then said: "Kongyu, I know that you are aloof and can't stand the stimulation. But this time it is about the life and death of our Zhao Xin clan, so I will leave all the affairs of the southern border to you.
Already."
Qin Kongyu, who was dressed in fiery red armor, knelt down on one knee and said, "I will never disgrace your Majesty's instructions, otherwise I will only have my head when we see you again."
Zhao Lingyun quickly lifted Qin Kongyu up, punched him and said, "Why are you doing this? We have been brothers for many years and don't care about these red tapes. Besides, what's the use of your head? Come back alive."
Qin Kongyu looked at Zhao Lingyun and said with a smile: "I have to learn from that fat man Yuchi's shamelessness from now on. After I leave the palace, I will ask that damn fat man for some advice."
Zhao Lingyun then said again: "Then the Jinhai Kingdom will definitely send experts to assassinate you, and I will send a group of shadows to protect you. But you don't have to feel any pressure. Be careful. I'm waiting for you to come back and we can have a good time over wine."
Qin Kongyu wanted to refuse, but he didn't think about it. Zhao Lingyun sent someone to monitor him. He understood that this was Zhao Lingyun's good intention. Moreover, Shadow had always only protected important members of the royal family. He had heard his name for a long time but never saw his person.
It's just that Qin Kongyu has always been extremely conceited about his own cultivation, so he thought of refusing. But he promised Zhao Lingyun to let go of his temper, so he didn't refuse. After thanking Zhao Lingyun, he left the Wude Hall and left this place to himself.
Yue Qianming and Zhao Lingyun.
After Qin Kongyu left the Wude Hall, he really went to the Imperial Palace Commanding Department to find Yuchi Zhongming. Little did he know that from then on, the aloof and arrogant God General Kongyu would never return and became an old rogue in Feng'an City.
Afterward, someone asked about Fatty Yuchi’s arrival.
What did he teach Qin Kongyu, but Fatty Yuchi tightly covered his lips and tongue, not daring to speak, for fear of being silenced by Qin Kongyu. Then he hid aside and laughed so hard that he couldn't breathe, but he never dared to guard
Qin Kongyu smiled so obscenely.
In the Wude Hall, Zhao Lingyun exudes a powerful aura. Although he is not the one with the highest cultivation among the people, he has always been the leader. This is not only determined by his status, but also by his uniqueness since childhood.
If you have leadership qualities, you won't be able to control these talented people.
Zhao Lingyun looked at Yue Qianming standing in front of the map for a long time, frowning in thought, and asked: "Do you have any ideas? Li Deming is not a simple person. You two have fought against each other for more than a dozen times. Both sides have different opinions."
There is a victory or defeat, although it is just a small fight, but Li Deming dared to gather so many troops this time, I think he is very confident."
Yue Qianming thought for a while and then said: "I just came back from patrolling the northern border and made some adjustments to the defense line, but this time Li Deming led his troops directly to attack the weak point of our army. There must be an internal source. I want to set off overnight.
Northland.”
Zhao Lingyun waved his hand and said: "There is no rush at this moment. You and Kong Yu will set off tomorrow. Military information must have been leaked in the southern border, and the same is true in the northern border. Kong Yu already has a copy in his hand.
I will also give you the list of traitorous generals later."
Yue Qianming looked at the names on the list and was furious. Then he said angrily: "These three people are really not afraid of death. But just the three of them don't dare to do these things, and they can't do these things!"
Then he raised his head and looked at Zhao Lingyun. The two of them looked at each other, and they both saw the meaning in each other's eyes, but they didn't say it clearly. But Zhao Lingyun smiled and said: "It seems that he is still not quiet! He dared to reach out to the four border guards. Yes, it seems I have to take some time to talk to him."
Yue Qianming couldn't laugh. This time Xia Geng's country was pressed heavily with troops, and he was under a lot of pressure. Zhao Lingyun patted him on the shoulder and said: "You have made it difficult for Xia Geng's country to suppress the country in the past few years. Advancing to the Longji Mountain area, this time gave them a chance, and they naturally wanted to take revenge.
This is their opportunity, and it is also our opportunity. The Xia Geng Kingdom has always regarded itself as the supreme kingdom of heaven. When my ancestors of the Zhao family founded the country, they also bowed to them and always insulted our Zhao Xin Kingdom. , he has restrained himself a lot since his father defeated his most important force, the wolf cavalry, and it seems that he has recovered a lot after recuperating his strength over the years."
Zhao Lingyun paused and thought for a while before saying: "Qian Ming, I only have one request for you this time. Just defeat the army led by Li Deming, and then try your best to eat the 30,000 Red Flame Wolf Cavalry. I guarantee that ten thousand will be killed." The Xia Geng clan will not dare to visit our northern defense line again within this year, but we must minimize our losses because there are follow-up plans that need to be completed step by step."
Yue Qianming suddenly felt more pressure, but suddenly he seemed to think of something, and a smile appeared on his face. Seeing Yue Qianming like this, Zhao Lingyun knew that he had understood, and said: "Don't be too stressed, just try your best. , I will also send 20,000 Anxuan troops to support you, and the Shadow Team will also send you a team, but I am not worried about your personal safety."
When Yue Qianming heard what Zhao Lingyun said, he raised his head and looked at Zhao Lingyun. He was not afraid of death. He had already had the mentality of ordinary things. He was just curious about the meaning of Zhao Lingyun's words. He asked himself that he was only one step ahead of Qin Kongyu with all his strength. Zhao Lingyun He smiled and said: "Have you forgotten? It's time for the senior students of the Spiritual Academy to go out for training again. This time the teacher personally led the team to your northern border. He said he wanted to take a good look at the scenery of the northern kingdom. He has already set off today. Wu Jing Didn’t the girl say anything when she got back?"
Yue Qianming immediately became anxious. How could the students of the Spiritual Academy go to the north at this time? How should he explain himself if something unexpected happened? Zhao Lingyun waved it to him not to worry, and said seriously: "It doesn't matter, the lives of these dignitaries and dignitaries these years have been It’s a bit too luxurious, and it has taught a group of noble disciples, just to let them know that the current peaceful life is obtained by the blood and sacrifice of many people, and stimulate their bloody nature.”
Yue Qianming couldn't help but nodded. The living atmosphere in the upper echelons of the Imperial Capital was indeed wrong now. It was time to educate the next generation properly. Otherwise, when they grow old, there will be no successors for the generals of the Zhao Xin family. When Yue Qianming leaves the palace, Only then did he remember the Anxuan Army that Zhao Lingyun mentioned, but he had never heard the name of this army. What kind of army was it? But it could be used as a trump card by Zhao Lingyun, so it must have great combat power. Yue Qianming walked on the way home under the bright moon, and his heart gradually calmed down. He thought about the task assigned to him by Zhao Lingyun. Although it was heavy, it was not his long-cherished wish for many years.
