Since the 26th year of Yuande, Xia State began to mobilize the power of the entire country.

After General Zhou Li of Anxi defeated Reshahai, before the Huguo Mansion made a decision, soldiers from all over the river had already rushed to the camps and gathered with weapons and horses. While preparing for the war, the soldiers were discussing matters. The battalions on the border were preparing to deal with the Turks' attacks, while the battalions in the mainland shouted that they must retaliate and fight back. On the north bank of the Wuhu River, the city gates were closed during the day and curfews were closed at night, and the people hid in Cangcheng with their families. Before the Huguo Mansion made the decision, the entire river seemed to be poked hornets' nests, and there were chaos everywhere. After the Huguo Mansion made the decision to retaliate against the Turks, everything began to become orderly.

In the 26th year of Yuande, Hezhong mobilized three times the active rural sergeants and urgently trained a group of regiment training camps to garrison the rear.

At the end of the 26th year of Yuande, the army in the river had exceeded 600,000, including the regiment training army. At this time, the people in various places were completely settled. This national mobilization operation was the largest and most complex organized activity in history. If someone looked down from the sky above the entire continent, he would see a spectacular scene of millions of people slowly moving westward. With the imperial guards and the Lian Rui army ordered to assist the river in the west, the entire Xia Kingdom's army, nomadic livestock herds, and food storage were moving westward, and even the Yinhu cavalry of the Anbei Army Division were also nomadic. The army in the river gradually gathered southward, but because a large number of officers were killed, the newly built battalions needed training and integration, and logistics relations, the large brigade stayed on the north bank of the Wuhu River for training, and the front line was still in a defensive position against the Turks.

Since the 27th year of Yuande, the logistics department has ensured that the food and grass transportation from Wuhu water to Iron Cliff is safe. General Xu Wenhu led the main force of the Anxi Army to cross Wuhu water, which means that the Turkic offensive operation has officially begun. "" For the Xia people, especially the people of Hezhong, retaliation against the Turkic attack is a legitimate act. In order to avoid the harassment of the Xia cavalry, many tribes were forced to migrate westward. For the Xia officials on the front line, this was just a test to train new recruits.

Compared with the coming battle to destroy the country, the military achievements or losses this year are insignificant. For the Roma Turkic tribe, this is a year when the gates of hell are opened. There are countless attacks, looting, killing, and arson every day. It is simply a bamboo that is out of the south mountain, and the crimes of the book are endless. For the logistics department, there are countless food and grass every day, and horses are consumed on the road. For the Marine Department, there are likely to receive news of a certain unit winning or being frustrated every day.

In the 28th year of Yuande, the Guardian Mansion, the General Mansion, the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Emperor Chen Xuan once again confirmed the attack on the Roma Turks.

The Roma Turks sent envoys to negotiate terms several times, but in the view of the Guardian Government, the lives of more than 20,000 soldiers had cut off the possibility of peace. If the head of the Roma Sultan was cut off, it would not be considered revenge. Prime Minister Liu Yi also believed that the Turkic Sultan was ambitious and capricious, and he had to cut off the future troubles as soon as possible. If the tiger was tolerated, he would be afraid that the lieutenant general would never have peace.

On the other hand, although Roma Sultan established the Mesud dynasty and replaced the Baiyi dynasty as the orthodox world of the Great Food World, war, killing and seizure were the main means for the Turkic Sultan Mesud to gather his generals. The Sultan's generals, princes and leaders of various tribes controlled most of the power of the Mesud dynasty. Many princes disagreed with peace. These people followed Roma Sultan out of the sea of ​​corpses and blood, and destroyed the Baiyi dynasty and gained great benefits.

However, most people's desire for wealth and power is even stronger. In the Xia Kingdom River, the legendary silk piled up like mountains and gold and silver everywhere stimulated the desires in the hearts of many people. At first, they were a little afraid of the military power of Xia Kingdom. General Zhou Li defeated the Hoksha Sea, which made it very... "Many people thought that the Xia ** team was just that. The bodies of the Baiyi Dynasty could no longer satisfy these vassals, and even the Sultan had to consider their opinions.

Since the Xia Kingdom did not agree to make peace, the Sultan happened to claim that the cause of the war was the arrogance and ambition of the Xia Kingdom. The Turks were preparing to fight with the Xia people. He sent envoys to rush to all directions, making allies while conscripting soldiers from various princes. Turkic cavalry teams of all sizes gathered in the east like streams.

The scale of the war will exceed anyone's imagination. The war has brought in many of the Xia Kingdom and the Turkish allies. In the vast war zone, no tribe, nor anyone can be neutral and protect themselves. On one side is the Turkish Sultan, which is born like a sun, and on the other side is the Xia Kingdom, which has dominated the river for a hundred years. In the eyes of the world, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. This collision between iron and blood seems to be a historical necessity. The fate of millions of people will depend on this war

As a result of the struggle, the people here have various beliefs, but they are equally excited and nervous, waiting for the gods to write the verdict with their blood. As the sages said, manpower is inferior to ox, and walking is inferior to horses. The reason for the use of cattle and horses is because people can form groups, but cattle and horses cannot fight in groups. Conversely, people who formed groups due to interests, in the face of the torrent of history, the fate of each person is closely linked to the fate of the group he belongs to.

The storm has brought tens of millions of people into it, and the center of the storm is often quiet.

On the eighth day of the seventh month of the 28th year of Yuande, General Zhang Shanfu left Kangguo.

General Liu Daxin, King Kang Hengming of Kang, Commander of the Tiger Wing Army, King Yong Chen Ang, Prince Kang De of King Kang, and some court officials from the sons of Dukes and Marquis stayed in Kang State and formed a camp for transporting people, horses and supplies. Liu Daxin soon set out, and established another camp for relocation of Wuhu Water. After Zhang Shanfu and Xu Wenhu met, he would also establish a camp on the Iron Cliff to continuously send the source of material resources to the front line. Before leaving, Zhang Shanfu specifically instructed the officials who stayed in Kang State to step up their defense in addition to transporting food and grass. Although the Turks probably only had one thousand hope to break through Wuhu Water and one thousand chance to fight Kang State, they should also be prepared for this situation.

After checking His Majesty's palace for sure, Zhang Shanfu left with confidence. Zhang Shanfu was a very unpretentious person. He did not notify the post station in advance to greet him, nor did he call him a general. He himself stayed in a four-wheeled carriage and studied the old map drawn by the Marine Department for the Baiyi Dynasty. After the cavalry guarded the convoy passing through the towns and villages, the people were excited and happy to learn from the guard camp that the famous Marquis of Guardians Zhang had just passed by here.

The 50,000 elite infantry cavalry transferred from the east followed Zhang Shanfu to the south. There were only a few hundred people following Zhang Shanfu, mainly officers, guards and orders from the marching department. Every time he went to an inn, Zhang Shanfu had to confirm the position of each army and issue new military orders to each army, ordering the army that was too fast to slow down the speed and urge the action to accelerate the advance slowly, so that the army could maintain a suitable distance. Most of the cavalrymen from the army went south were one man and two horses, or even three horses, and the infantry and barracks also carried many four-chariots. In order to alleviate the pressure of supply along the way, the army and battalions deliberately opened the distance between the march.

On July 23, Zhang Shanfu arrived at Gushang City. He walked off the carriage and wore an old gray military robe. He came to the Shede River. He looked down at the river water flowing southwest. The general was silent for a long time. The lower reaches of the river were the fertile fields of the Uhu Water. The Tianshan Mountains meandered north, the Palacio Mountains stood in the east, and Xingdu Mountains stretched south. The towering mountains were like three towering walls, surrounding the fertile fields of the Uhu "dawn of the Empire" water into a basin opening to the west. The Western wind blew here and hit the towering mountains on three sides and ended abruptly.

The gap-free basin is a natural bridgehead for the Xia Kingdom. This is a battlefield that the gods are paying attention to. For millions of years, countless ethnic groups have entered this place like a colosseum. Greeks, Persians, Huns, Yuezhi people, Sogdians, Turks, and came and went like a lantern. Tiemen Pass and Huwen City are the most critical cities in the north and south of this region. Tang Xuanzang recorded Tiemen Pass as the starting point for the spread of Buddhism in the Western Regions. Going south and crossing the eastern edge of the vast black sand sea, it is Zhang Shanfu's place of fame and Huwen City. The general who used an army to intimidate the princes of Gaseni and attacked the famous city thousands of miles away like a bag, is now Huwen Hou who is over 50 years old.

The officers of the entourage marching department were all busy, and a few of them followed him tactfully without disturbing the old general who was standing by the river and pondering.

Until an officer came out of the post station, walked to Zhang Shanfu and bowed and said, "Your Majesty has arrived in Gaochang."

"Your Majesty can't wait to start the show." Zhang Shanfu joked rarely. The officer under his command smiled clearly, but he did not dare to follow the crowd and talked. Zhang Shanfu shook his head boredly, returned to the four-wheeled carriage from the river bank, and personally marked Chen Xuan's location on the map.

The emperor's march speed exceeded Zhang Shanfu's expectations. He did not despise the Longya Army, the imperial guards who followed the escorts, but because Chen Xuan could not refuse the people's love for the royal family. Generally speaking, whenever the imperial guards arrived, they would always have a climax of cheering and watching. In the Xia Kingdom, the huge territory, powerful army, honest officials, strict laws and regulations, and fair governance made most people in Xia Kingdom, regardless of young people, the elderly, regardless of personality or status, most of them

He has a kind of "entertainment show" love for the emperor. Since Chen Xuan ascended the throne, he has always been obeying the emperor's duties and has almost never interfered in the specific affairs of the five palaces, which has even reached the pinnacle of this love for the royal family. This is like the ancient hermits who lived in seclusion, but can develop a huge reputation in the court and the country. In such a passionate love, some may be so excited that they are, and some may forget who they are, but Zhang Shanfu knows that His Majesty himself is definitely not among them.

Since Chen Xuan's march speed exceeded Zhang Shanfu's expectations, it means that His Majesty the Emperor must have adopted a march similar to the general of the marching commander, without using a banner or showing off his identity. "What a pity." Zhang Shanfu curled his lips in the carriage with some dissatisfaction. If the imperial lord came forward, the morale of the generals and civilians from east to west would be aroused to the peak. "What a pity." He sighed and understood Chen Xuan, "I am willing to give up, my Majesty has given up a lot of personal things. It is harmless to be honest when marching. The military and civilians along the way will inevitably be a little disappointed."
