Xixia Kingdom, Weizhou.

Weizhou is located on the border between Xia and Zhou dynasties and is an important military town. By heading south from Weizhou, you can directly sweep Qinfeng Road in the Great Zhou.

The Longyou area where Qinfeng Road is located has always been a strategic location, because it guards the Tubo, Xixia, Tatars and the Western Regions.

At the same time, as the place where the Li Tang Dynasty was prosperous, the rich resources here have always been a good place for the Western Xia Kingdom to salivate.

In Weizhou City, more than 200,000 troops had already accumulated a festival.

The commander of the Baotai Army, Mozang Epang, stood on the stage, and was also excited to see the hundreds of thousands of soldiers below the stage.

He was the "Hou Party" of the Xixia Kingdom. As the younger brother of the Empress Dowager of Xixia and the uncle of the emperor, he became the actual responsible general for the attack on Zhou this time. It was also the first time he led his troops alone.

The Great Zhou never responded to the unreasonable request of Xixia, and did not agree or refuse. He just wanted to drag it on like this, and there were also bets that Xixia dared not use troops.

As a result, the civil servants of the Great Zhou Dynasty underestimated the impact of this drought on the Xixia Kingdom and the Liao Kingdom.

These two countries were originally nomadic peoples, and they did not work in farming and their grain yields were not high. Now, with this drought, there was almost no harvest.

Unlike the Great Zhou Dynasty, where droughts in the north can be caused by drought in the south of the Yangtze River or Jinghu area. The price of grain is more expensive, and it will not cause people to starve to death.

But Xixia is different from Liao. It is either in the ancient cold land or in the desert area. No one can stand eating beef and mutton every day without staple food.

Especially in the Xixia Kingdom, the country is originally small and the area it occupies is not a place of fish and rice. Life is already difficult. Now when the drought comes, it is a danger of destroying the country.

Since the Great Zhou refused to help, the Liao Kingdom could not defeat it. The Xixia people who had lost their patience were finally ready to go crazy and snatch it directly.

The smoke bombs released by the Western Xia Kingdom were to attack Yan'an Prefecture or Taiyuan Prefecture, so the army of the Great Zhou was also deployed there in large quantities.

In fact, the Xixia Kingdom made a fuss and the target was very clear, that was the Longyou area, which made Zhou Guo unable to defend.

After several snare drums stopped, Wu Zang Epang yelled on the stage:

"Soldiers, now our country is suffering from a drought that has not been encountered in a century. Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager personally asked for help from Zhou and Liao. They originally hoped that they could help us, so that we Xia people had a way out and that our families could survive.

However, the Zhou people and the Liao Kingdom were about to stand by and watch us Xia people starve to death. Such ruthless and unrighteous countries were all jackals, tigers and leopards. They all wanted our Xia Kingdom to destroy our country, and they all wanted our Xia people to die.

Now, we can only fight and fight. Since they don’t give it to us, we will take it ourselves, rob his mother’s food, burn his mother’s city, kill his mother’s Zhou people, and then rob all the women of Zhou from our country of Xia for us to enslave us.

Soldiers, please raise your courage to let the Zhou people know the power of our Xia army, so that they will tremble when they see our Xia army, and will never be able to raise the courage to look at us and become our slaves.

I, the commander of the Baotai Army, Mozang Epang, ordered you to set up the camp immediately, attack with all your might, kill and kill!!!”

More than 200,000 soldiers from Xixia Kingdom also shouted in an orderly manner: Kill! Kill! Kill!!!

The south gate of Weizhou opened, and 200,000 troops came out in sequence and headed south.

The whereabouts of the Xixia army were immediately discovered by the border attendants, and the alarm was quickly issued to the Huaide army, Xi'an Prefecture and Huizhou behind them.

For a moment, the borders of hundreds of miles were filled with smoke.

However, most of the Great Zhou army was deployed in Yan'an Prefecture and Taiyuan Prefecture on the Eastern Front. Although hundreds of thousands of conventional troops were stationed on the Western Front, except for a small half of the border troops, most of them were wing troops, and their combat effectiveness was worrying.

The troops sent by the Xixia Kingdom this time are all elite troops in the country. This is here to fight to the death, and of course they have to send the strongest troops.

Compared with the two, Zhou State suffered.

So he ran to Bianliang City without even asking for help.

This was really a serious misjudgment by the civil servants in the court, but they put the soldiers on the border to death.

The war that took place on Qinfeng Road would not reach Bianliang after a while. There were no telephones or telegrams these days. Even if it was eight hundred miles, it would take at least four days to deliver the two thousand miles.

In Bianliang City, it was still a scene of running, dancing, dancing, and a peaceful and prosperous era.

In Baihua Building.

At this time, Shui Ling was playing the pipa next to the small stage in the hall, helping the actors on the stage to accompany the stage. Although she was no longer going to perform on stage, she still wanted to do something within her ability.

Chen Buer told her to take care of her illness, but as a 16-year-old girl, how could she be locked in the room all day long? She wouldn't get sick even if she was bored.

So once you feel that your body has recovered a little, you will return to your "work position".

After a serious illness, Shui Ling showed a sickly temperament at this time. Her fair face and her beautiful face made Shui Ling look so pure and charming among the charming people of Baihualou. I feel pity for me.

Chen Buer knew the reason why beauty was a disaster, so when envoys from all over the world came to Bianliang on the Wanshou Festival, he kept instructing Shui Ling not to perform on stage to prevent being targeted.

But some things can be avoided if they are the first day of the lunar calendar, but they cannot be avoided if they are the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar.

By the lotus pond, Zhou Gaoxuan, the youngest son of Zhou Yucheng, the deputy minister of the government affairs officer, was leaning against the railing. The paper fan in his hand was motionless, and his whole body seemed to be calmed down, motionless, and his eyes were emitting light.

He is interested in Shui Ling.

Even though Shui Ling was hiding among a group of accompaniment actors at this time, no matter how many people hide or don’t dress up, they are all outstanding and can be seen in the crowd at a glance.

But Master Zhou’s taste is quite unique, and he likes “sick beauty”, and he becomes fascinated immediately.

He called a turtle man over and said, "Who is that little lady? Why haven't you seen it before?"

"If you want to go back to the young master, her name is Shui Ling, but she is not the girl in the building, but just an ordinary little actor. What kind of girl the young master likes, I will introduce you to you."

Mr. Gui also saw many clients asking Shui Ling, so he was not surprised. He casually introduced a few words to open up the topic.

"No matter what kind of clerk he is or a little actor, a woman who can't sell in this Baihua Building? Go and call me to serve me."

But Zhou Gaoxuan was not willing to follow him. He was the deputy prime minister in later generations. Such a high-ranking official and the youngest son in the family were naturally a willful person.

To put it simply, what he likes is what he must get.

In his outlook on life and cognition, there are still women who cannot be bought with money these days? If not, it means that there is not enough money.
