Zhenwu Tianxia: Summon Yuwen Chengdu at the beginning

Chapter 215 Then let them feel the horror from Dali!
The Fire Worship Royal Court is located in the west of Dali, bordering on the western border of Dali for thousands of miles, from the southernmost tip of Yuanzhou to the south of Liangzhou.

The entire Fire Worship Royal Court has a population of nearly [-] million and a territory of one million square kilometers. It is definitely the most powerful royal court among the Western Regions.

About 30 years ago, the Fire Worship Royal Court invaded the western border of Dali. At that time, the Fire Worship Royal Court raised 30 troops and fought all the way from Lingwei Pass in Yuanzhou to the western area of ​​Shuzhou. The army retreated steadily, with the tendency of encroaching on the three states in the southwest of Dali.

At that time, the old emperor had just been enthroned for more than ten years, and had just stabilized the situation in the court. Facing the strong invasion of the Fire Worshiping Court, the old emperor was furious, and summoned 30 imperial troops and a million civilians to fight in person.

The two armies fought in the west of Shuzhou and Yuanzhou for ten months, and finally the old emperor defeated the army of the Fire Worship King's Court at Jinyan Peak in the middle of Yuanzhou by relying on geographical advantages.

At the beginning of July in the 14th year of Wude, the old emperor led the remaining 20 forbidden troops out of Lingwei Pass, and attacked for thousands of miles until the capital of Fire Worship King, forcing the previous generation of Fire Worship King to bow his head and proclaim himself a minister.

It's a pity that the northern border was unstable at that time, otherwise the old emperor would definitely destroy the country by the Fire Worship Court.

However, even if the Fire Worship Royal Court did not destroy the country, the national power would be seriously lost, and they would not dare to provoke Da Li again for decades.

But now, the old emperor has passed away, and the Fire Worship Royal Court has recovered the national strength of the past, even stronger than it was then.

The 46th day of December in the [-]th year of Takede.

The army of the Fire Worship Royal Court once again approached Lingwei Pass.

The mighty army rolled in like dark clouds in the sky, and the dignified and chilling atmosphere permeated the sky and the earth, covering the sky above Lingwei Pass, making the soldiers of Lingwei Pass tremble.

Lingwei Pass is located on the hillside of Lingping Mountain. It is built close to the mountain. The front is low and the back is low. The city is eight feet high.

There are [-] frontier troops in Lingwei Pass, and the chief general is Xue Yi, one of the Twelve Marquises of Dali, Marquis of Dingyuan.

At this time, Xue Yi, who was seven feet tall, was standing on the wall of Lingwei Pass, overlooking the army of the Fire Worship King's Court that was gathering below.

Several generals in armor followed him, all showing heavy expressions.

"Has there been any news from the court?" Xue Yi said in a hoarse voice.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he hadn't had a good night's sleep since he learned that millions of allied forces from the Western Regions were about to invade Dali.

But now that the 30 soldiers of the Fire King Court were approaching the city, he couldn't sleep anymore.

Several generals shook their heads, unable to say a word.

"Damn it! What are those old things in the hall doing?" Xue Yi said angrily.

Since three months ago, when he discovered that the countries in the Western Regions had a tendency to gather troops, he had reported it to the court, but the old emperor was busy dealing with the thieves from Xiaoyao Island and the Southwest Islands at that time, so he did not give him a clear reply .

After the old emperor passed away and Qin Wei ascended the throne, he began to arrange matters to deal with the countries of the Western Regions.

Although Qin Wei had ordered the Imperial Army to come to support him, Xue Yi had not received the order from the court until now due to the long distance and dangerous terrain from the capital to Lingwei Pass.

It is a journey of [-] miles from the capital to Lingwei Pass, and it has to pass through Shuzhou and Yuanzhou. The journey is extremely difficult. Even if it is an express transmission at the post station, it will take more than half a month to complete the transmission.

"Report!"

Just when Xue Yi was full of complaints to the court, a soldier ran quickly.

"General Qi, there is an imperial envoy from the court below the city, please see me!"

Xue Yi suddenly turned his head, stared at the soldier who reported, and asked, "Imperial envoy! Where is it?"

"It's at the east gate!" the soldier said.

Without saying a word, Xue Yi quickly ran down the city wall, followed by a group of generals.

After a while, they came to the gate tower of the East City Gate.

At this time, all the gates of Lingweiguan Sifang City have been closed, and outsiders are not allowed to enter.

Standing in front of the gatehouse, Xue Yi looked down the city, and saw a gorgeously decorated carriage quietly parked in front of the city gate, surrounded by hundreds of warriors in hard attire and hats riding on horseback.

Although just looking at it from a distance, it made his hair stand on end.

Danger!

An extremely dangerous group of people!

His mind sank slightly, and he had some doubts about the origin of this group of people.

"Who came down from the city?"

he asked aloud.

The people below did not speak, only a well-equipped warrior stepped forward and threw a golden token.

The token flew, like an arrow with a sharp whistling sound.

Xue Yi stretched out his hand to catch the token, his face changed slightly.

He just tossed it casually, and he actually carried a very strong force. If his cultivation base was not weak, he might not be able to catch this token at all.

Looking at the token in his hand, the pupils in his eyes suddenly shrank.

"Golden Dragon Order!"

The Golden Dragon Token is the token representing Lihuang in the imperial city, it is impossible for ordinary imperial envoys to have such a token, only internal officials in the imperial city are eligible to hold such a token.

However, the internal officials in the imperial city seldom intervene in the affairs of the court and the court. Although there are many guarding eunuchs in various places in Dali, those guarding eunuchs do not have the right to intervene in the official offices of the court, at most they only have the right to supervise.

Therefore, even internal officials would rarely take the Golden Dragon Token with them when they went out. This thing rarely appeared, but as long as it appeared, it was as if Emperor Li had arrived in person.

"Open the door!"

Xue Yi shouted in panic.

squeak~~
The heavy city gate opened, and Xue Yi almost ran out.

"Xue Yi, Marquis of Zhenyuan, asks His Majesty to give you peace!"

"Regardless of Your Majesty's Holy Ann!"

A group of generals from Lingwei Pass followed Xue Yi and worshiped.

The door curtain of the carriage opened, and Zhao Gao was sitting in the carriage wearing a gorgeous red robe.

His pale face was full of indifference, and his long and narrow eyes looked at the generals in front of him without any emotion.

"Excuse me, generals!"

Hearing this, Xue Yi couldn't help raising his head, and when he saw Zhao Gao, he trembled all over.

"Dare to ask the father-in-law?"

Holding the Golden Dragon Order, he must be an internal official.

"Horse Supervisor Zhao Gao!"

Zhao Gao said lightly.

He is the leader of Luo Wang, but in the imperial city, he is still the eunuch who is supervised by the imperial horse supervisor.

Xue Yi thought about it, but he didn't expect that there was such a person as Zhao Gao in the imperial city.

However, he didn't delve into it. When the new emperor ascended the throne, it was only natural for someone in the imperial city to take the lead.

Furthermore, the Golden Dragon Token in his hand cannot be faked.

He stood up and handed out the Golden Dragon Token in his hand.

Xiao Wu who was standing beside the carriage immediately stepped forward to take the Golden Dragon Token, and then returned it to Zhao Gao.

"Please, Eunuch Zhao!"

Xue Yi said respectfully.

If it was just an internal official, he naturally didn't need to be so respectful, but Zhao Gao held the Golden Dragon Token, as if Emperor Li came personally, how could he not be respectful.

Zhao Gao did not speak, the curtain was drawn, and the carriage drove directly into the city.

……

In the middle of Lingwei Pass.

In the majestic hall, Zhao Gaonian sat in the main seat, Xue Yi sat next to him, the rest of the generals had all retreated, and there were only warriors guarding the door.

Zhao Gaogaan sipped the tea, but Xue Yi was fidgeting, and couldn't help asking: "Eunuch Zhao, I wonder if the imperial court has dispatched reinforcements."

"Yes!" Zhao Gao said.

Xue Yi's eyes lit up, "But dispatch the guards from Yuanzhou and Shuzhou!"

"No!" Zhao Gao said.

Xue Yi was startled.

No!

In the current situation, it is most appropriate to dispatch the guarding troops of Yuanzhou and Shuzhou.

"Where did you send reinforcements?"

"Kyoto Forbidden Army, 20, should leave now." Zhao Gao said.

Xue Yi was completely dumbfounded.

Kyoto Forbidden Army!

Supporting Lingwei Pass from the capital, they will not be able to come within three months. When they come, this Lingwei Pass may have been trampled down by millions of troops from the Western Regions.

Zhao Gao looked up at him, and said calmly: "You only need to guard Lingwei Pass for ten days, and leave the rest to me!"

"What do you mean?" Xue Yi heard the words, his head was like a ball of paste, and he didn't understand Zhao Gao's meaning at all.

"My task is to destroy the alliance of the countries in the Western Regions, so this million-strong army is my opponent!" Zhao Gao said.

Xue Yi's eyes were wide open, and he looked at Zhao Gao in disbelief.

He wondered if Zhao Gao was talking nonsense.

"how can that be?"

Zhao Gao drank his tea lightly and ignored him.

The millions of troops from the countries of the Western Regions seem extremely powerful, but in his eyes, they are full of loopholes and countless weaknesses.

Xue Yi stared at Zhao Gao for a long time before he came back to his senses.

He didn't believe what Zhao Gao said, but he couldn't interfere with what Zhao Gao did. He couldn't even ask Zhao Gao if he didn't say anything.

"Then I'm only in charge of Lingweiguan's defense?"

"En!" Zhao Gao nodded.

Xue Yi took a deep breath, stood up, and said: "Then I won't disturb Eunuch Zhao, and I will leave!"

After speaking, he quickly left the main hall.

Of course, after walking out of the main hall, he couldn't help but look back at Zhao Gao in the hall.

"Is this guy crazy?"

"Your Majesty is still crazy, and let him deal with the millions of troops from the Western Regions!"

At this time, he looked at Zhao Gao like he looked at a madman.

If it wasn't for Zhao Gao holding the Golden Dragon Token, maybe he would have driven Zhao Gao out of Lingwei Pass long ago.

With a long sigh, Xue Yi left helplessly.

But not long after he left, Xiao Wu quickly walked into the main hall.

"My lord, the situation is almost clear!"

Xiao Wu bowed and said.

"how?"

"As my lord expected, there are many conflicts among the countries in the Western Regions. They don't have much favor for the Fire Worship Court, but they have to submit to the Fire Worship Court due to the power of the Fire Worship Court."

"Among the countries in the Western Regions, the Jingjue Royal Court has the deepest hatred for the Fire Worship Royal Court. The strongest other than the Fire Worship Royal Court are the Da Yue Royal Court and the Dawan Royal Court."

"These three royal courts have a total of thirty armies, and their kings are in the opposite camp."

Xiao Wudao.

"They are afraid of the Fire Worship Royal Court, but they are not afraid of our Dali!" Zhao Gao sneered.

"For them, the Fire Worship Royal Court is right in front of them, but our Dali is very far away from them." Xiao Wu said.

What is far away is not the distance, but the contact between each other.

For a long time, although Dali is powerful in the Western Regions, the only one who has more contact with Dali is Fire Worship Royal Court. As for other royal courts, he rarely has contact with Dali, especially those kings who have no border with Dali. In the courtyard, there is almost no intersection with Dali.

Dali may be very powerful, but they can't get in touch with Dali, so naturally they won't be afraid of Dali.

"Then let them experience the horror from Dali!"

Zhao Gao said lightly: "We have no time to waste, tonight, we will go there!"

"Here!" Xiao Wu said.

"Let's start with the Jingjue Royal Court!"

"This subordinate understands, this subordinate will make arrangements now!" Xiao Wu replied.
