This day.

Camp in the western suburbs of the imperial capital, in the school grounds.

The "Li"-character military flag is hunting, and 10,000 elite northern troops stand under the general platform, with bright armor, swords and guns like a forest, and murderous intent rising into the sky.

One hundred drummers with round waists and thick arms stood in front of their respective military drums and lined up around the school grounds.

"Dong dong dong..."

Today, the emperor came in person, and the sound of the drums for the expedition shook the sky.

at last.

Emperor Xia bestowed the military talisman on Li Jian and said earnestly: "Marshal Li, I am waiting for your triumphant return in the imperial capital!"

Li Jian looked solemn: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will never retreat until the Sirius people retreat!"

This is not what Emperor Xia wants to hear!

He looked at the ministers and historians not far away and hesitated to speak.

finally.

Emperor Xia still spoke out: "Li Aiqing, in the past twenty years, I, Daxia, have lost troops and generals in Huangzhou, and still cannot defend Huangzhou despite being severely injured. It's not because we are weak, but because the Sirius cavalry is too strong.

"This time, if you and this hundred thousand troops are defeated in Huangzhou, then my Daxia will not only be severely injured, but also have broken muscles and broken bones!"

"So, if things in Huangzhou cannot be done, Aiqing must take care of yourself and protect this hundred thousand troops!"

"I grant you the right to make decisions on the spur of the moment, and you can freely decide whether to advance or retreat the army!"

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Emperor Xia just didn't say it clearly... If you, Li Jian, lead an army to Huangzhou and find that Huangzhou has been occupied by the Sirius people, don't be brave anymore and don't go into Huangzhou to fight the terrible Sirius people.

Just wait for these 100,000 troops to come back!"

Li Jian looked understanding: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I understand what you mean!"

Emperor Xia was delighted: "As long as Li Aiqing understands!"

"However, there is one more thing I must understand, my dear, although the King of Huangzhou has sworn to live and die with Huangzhou, he is my dragon son after all. If you can rescue him during your expedition to Huangzhou this time, I will not

I was stabbed in the spine by everyone in the world!"

"If there is any misunderstanding between you and him, you can rescue him and talk about it later in the imperial capital!"

"I believe that your beloved will not confuse state affairs with personal grudges!"

"Right?"

Li Jianhu blinked and asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, according to the time of dispatching troops, the wolf army should have already begun to attack Huangzhou!"

"It will take at least a month for my army to reach Huangzhou. If Huangzhou has fallen by then...will I go in to rescue the king of Huangzhou?"

The expression in Emperor Xia's eyes was unclear, and he looked dimly in the direction of Huangzhou: "It's still the same sentence... I grant you the right to make decisions on the spur of the moment, and you can freely decide whether to advance or retreat the army!"

Li Jian's eyes flashed with brilliance: "I understand!"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will never confuse state affairs with family affairs!"

Speaking of which.

Li Jian took out a memorial from his arms, took off the sword given by Emperor Xia, and respectfully sent it to Emperor Xia: "Your Majesty, the case of Ye Fan, Governor of Qingzhou, has been investigated clearly, and the details of the case are in this memorial. Please

Your Majesty personally reads it!"

Eunuch Wei stepped forward and held the memorial and the sword in his hands.

Emperor Xia narrowed his eagle eyes, turned around and walked towards the dragon frame, leaving behind words: "Prime Minister Zuo, if you are concerned about your daughter, you can talk to Li Aiqing!"

Everyone paid tribute to the emperor.

Then.

Sima Jiancai stepped forward and saluted: "Marshal Li, the King of Huangzhou and my Lan'er leave it to Marshal!"

"With the current national war, Marshal, please put aside your personal grudges and put national affairs first!"

"Please!"

Li Jian raised his head helplessly!

Why do these people think he wants to kill their own prince?

His heart to save the desolate state and his love to save the king of the desolate state are the most sincere in the entire imperial capital!

Seeing the helplessness on his face, Sima Jian misunderstood him directly and made a condition: "Marshal Li, please rest assured that I, the Prime Minister, will be in the rear to ensure that your army will have no worries about the food and grass supply for the Western Expedition!"

"I just want Marshal Li to win the battle!"

Li Jian looked constipated and reluctantly agreed!

"Don't worry, this Marshal will fight for the country throughout his life and will never mix state affairs with personal matters."

Finished.

Li Jian turned around, held the military talisman in his hand, and said majestically: "Beat the drum, let's go to war!"

"yes!"

"Boom boom boom..."

The vanguard cavalry turned their horses and headed west.

Li Jian jumped on his horse and sang loudly: "The deserted state is fighting at the dark border of the clouds, the imperial capital is looking at the Xiyin Mountains in the distance, the grasslands are wearing golden armor in a hundred battles, and the wolf will never return until it is broken."

Li Jian's voice is sonorous and powerful, and the sound reaches the sky!

"If you don't break the Heavenly Wolf, you will never return it!"

"If you don't break the Heavenly Wolf, you will never return it!"

The elite troops of the Northern Army who accompanied Li Jian on the expedition were full of morale, and they shouted in unison that the meaning of "Jin Ge" spread throughout the imperial capital.

The invincible fighting spirit filled my heart.

"Da da da..."

Ten thousand elite Northern Army cavalry followed Li Jian, rushing westward toward Huangzhou like wind and lingering clouds.

at this time.

Emperor Xia stood on the dragon frame, his eyes bursting with divine light, and he murmured: "What an unbreakable Heavenly Wolf who never returns his favor!"

"I thought that the generals were frightened by the werewolves, and so must the soldiers below!"

"Now it seems that is not the case!"

"The ministers of the imperial court do not want to fight... but my soldiers want to fight this war... What is the problem with my imperial court?"

Speaking of which.

Emperor Xia asked: "Old man, do you think... I was wrong?"

Cold sweat broke out directly from Eunuch Wei's forehead: "No!"

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and what you do is God's will. You will never do anything wrong!"

Emperor Xia was thoughtful, his eyes swept over the ministers, his eyes full of resentment: "Of course I can't be wrong!"

"These highly respected people are afraid of death!"

"Glow-in-the-dark cup of grape wine. If you want to drink, play the pipa immediately. Don't laugh when you are lying drunk on the battlefield. How many people have fought in ancient times?"

"Unexpectedly, all the generals in the dynasty are not as brave as Xiao Jiu!"

"One inch of mountains and rivers, one inch of blood...one handful of hot soil and one soul!"

"Old man, get me all the words Xiaojiu said and the poems he wrote!"

"yes!"

suddenly.

A trace of doubt flashed in Emperor Xia's eyes: "Old man, Xiaojiu has already asked to marry Sima Lan, but he wrote a beautiful poem that will be passed down through the ages to express his love to Du Yuer... What is he trying to do?

?”

Eunuch Wei looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and replied cautiously: "Young and romantic people all love beauty!"

Emperor Xia raised his eyebrows: "Then Du Yue'er is Du Jun's daughter, right?"

"yes!"

Emperor Xia's eyes became more suspicious: "Could it be that Xiaojiu discovered something in Huangzhou?"

"Are you going to please Du Yue'er now?"

"Right!"

"Zhuang Hoe has been in Huangzhou for a long time. Is there any news coming back?"

Eunuch Wei shook his head: "No!"
