At the end of October, the first cold wave surged southward from the northern wasteland.

While enjoying the convenience and warmth of briquettes, the people of Kyoto cautiously discussed the war in the Western Region. Daliang did not strictly control public speech. As long as it was not ridiculing the emperor's treason, he would generally

No one cares about the words of the people. On the contrary, the classes in the Imperial College and Imperial College have been extremely heavy recently. Those scholars who wanted to travel with their second and third friends were locked up in the school by their teachers, and they had no mood or energy to speak out.

The common people only know that Daliang and Xiwu are now facing each other at the border. The specific situation is not clear. They only hear that Zhongshanzi, who invented briquettes, won several battles, wiped out thousands of enemies, and was extremely famous in the court for a while.

The officials of the two governments and six departments were naturally more aware, but no one made a big fuss about Pei Yue, because they knew that the war was extremely dangerous, and some even proposed to send the Western Camp of the Beijing Army to the border to deal with the Thirty Years of Xiwu.

More than ten thousand troops. This proposal was eventually rejected by Emperor Kaiping. No one knew why the emperor was so confident.

Xiangyun Company is still developing rapidly, and today's business is no longer limited to briquettes. With Mr. Xi personally at the helm, Sun Qi and other powerful disciples giving full support, Gu Fan supervising the accounts, and a large number of newly recruited capable shopkeepers, this emerging company's

The tentacles gradually extend out of Kyoto. Although some people

I was worried about this situation, but merchants have always been a lowly industry in the eyes of the powerful, and with the care of the right-wing ruler Luo Ting, they did not encounter any trouble. Especially Pei Yue worked hard to assist Shitan Temple in Yongzhou and Yunzhou, and Kaiping

The emperor no longer feared the development of this company.

Gu Zhen is quite free now. She will go to the main office every three or two days to have dinner and chat with Taohua. Of course, their topic will never be separated from the young man far away in the west. She heard about Pei Yue.

After the achievement, although she was very happy, she could not erase the worry in her heart. It became less and less in the past few months, which made Zhao very worried and sent several letters home to Nanmian one after another.

After Guliang, Hou Guliang of Guangping, received a letter from his family, he wrote back to tell the Zhao family not to worry. After the war in the Western Region was over, the marriage of his young son and daughter would be put on the agenda. Now that Gu Liang is in charge of the Chengdu camp, the affairs at hand are extremely complicated.

, especially after the war broke out in the Western Region, the Southern Zhou Dynasty began to be ready to stir up trouble. He rushed to the Zhennan Camp, deployed troops and generals to strengthen the defense line, and nipped the restlessness of the Southern Zhou people in the bud.

Although the Southern Zhou Dynasty had the strongest heavy-armored infantry in the world, and the trapped troops among them were even more fearless of death, in the absence of cavalry, it was still a fanciful idea to cross the vast Tiancang River and force the Northern Expedition.

Unless there is chaos within Daliang, it will be difficult for him to see the outline of the capital city even if Fang Xiexiao is a master of military tactics.

Gu Liang was not worried about the threat from the Southern Zhou Dynasty. After stabilizing the defense line, he still looked to the northwest. After all, there was his son there, and Pei Yue, with whom he could only bury the true relationship deep in his heart.

When the first cold wave in the fifth year of Kaiping crossed Kyoto and the plains, and the early wind blew the rolling water of Tiancang River, Gu Liang finally received a secret letter sent by Pei Yue who had traveled thousands of miles.

After reading the secret letter, he threw the letter into the brazier and burned it to ashes, with a relieved smile on his face.

At that moment, he thought of many people.

The faces in his memory are still clear, as if he can sense his state of mind, and the blood and fire buried in the pile of old papers are rekindled.

The cold wave makes people feel bone-chilling, but just like Gu Liang's mood when he saw the letter, the soldiers of Longgong Camp felt equally hot in their hearts, because they finally no longer had to huddle in their shells like turtles, and they could do whatever they wanted.

Let the enemy show off his power in front of you.

The infantry came out in formation, and the light cavalry provided flank cover. Even though the force was obviously weak, the main force of the Longbow Army still took a stance outside Xishan Village without fear, facing the Wu army's formation to the west proudly.

Xie Lin stood on the chariot and looked at Liang Jun's formation.

It was not a fluke that Tang Youzhi reached his current position. His formation was square and upright, implying the correct principles. It was absolutely impossible to use cavalry to break the formation.

The most important thing is that Xie Lin cannot throw away his main force at once. He must leave enough reserve troops to prepare for possible accidents. The Tibetan Front Guards led by Pei Yue still did not appear, just like a ghost wandering around. No

People know the strategy of the young powerful man, but Schelling has not understood it until now, so he must ensure that he has enough power to deal with emergencies.

Valley

Is this your plan?

Exchange more than 6,000 elite cavalry for part of my troops?

It has to be said that this is a very good deal. Xie Lin's biggest advantage when facing Tang You is the 50,000 cavalry in his hand. Excluding the 10,000 cavalry left in the north of Hucheng, plus the previous losses in Pei

Yue had more than 4,000 cavalry, and now he still had 35,000 cavalry, including the most powerful 5,000 Ruijin Battalion armored cavalry.

Now that Ruijin Battalion was set aside by Xie Lin to deal with the Tibetan front guards, at least 10,000 cavalry had to be allocated as a reserve force. Only 20,000 cavalry were left that could actually be deployed.

In addition, he now has 60,000 infantry.

In comparison, Tang Youzhi's military strength was extremely weak, with only 30,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry at full strength.

Eighty thousand versus forty thousand, Schelling had no reason to avoid fighting.

On the vast Gaoyang Plain, military flags were hunting, swords and swords were awe-inspiring, and the chilly sunshine splashed down like broken gold, reflecting on the tens of thousands of troops from the two countries, and murderous intent rose into the sky.

Xie Lin turned around and nodded, and the herald flew away, and soon the sound of the horn resounded throughout the world.

Two light cavalry took the lead and attacked on both sides of Liang Jun's formation. These were cavalry trained by Xie Lin himself. They showed outstanding strength from the moment they started charging. While the horses were galloping at high speed, these trainings had

The prime Western Wu cavalry calmly raised their bows and arrows, and used extremely superb riding and archery skills to kick off the battle.

Tang Youzhi looked calm. Since he agreed with Pei Yue's plan, he had no hesitation or anxiety.

The large formation of infantry remained motionless, allowing the Xiwu cavalry to approach rapidly. The expressions on the faces of each infantry were extremely calm.

The combat power of the Longbow Camp is superior to the four border battalions. It is not based on bragging and pretentiousness, but the result of hard training day after day. Tang Youzhi can allow Yang Yingji with such a temperament to serve as an experience officer. It can be seen that he has such a deep understanding of these things.

The soldiers have strict requirements.

Gao Linfen led a cavalry force against the Western Wu cavalry on the left, and Gu Mang led five thousand cavalry against the Western Wu cavalry on the right.

The tides collide and separate at the first touch!

This confrontation was more like a test, with no winner or loser decided. Both sides quickly distanced themselves after taking over, each leaving dozens of corpses behind.

What followed was a large formation of infantry fighting hand to hand.

If you zoom out and look down from above, and temporarily turn your attention away from this tragic battlefield, you can see groups of soldiers and horses gathering in the same direction in various places far away from Xishan Village, like a powerful force that can sweep the world.
