Chapter 7 Expedition to Xixia, set off!
Good time always passes very fast, often in the blink of an eye, as if time slipped away quickly, making people have a deep nostalgia for time for the first time.

But no matter what, manpower cannot be against the sky after all. In a blink of an eye, three days passed, and Qingming arrived as promised.

As the saying goes, "it rains heavily during the Qingming Festival, and pedestrians on the road feel like they are dying." The same is true for this year's Qingming Festival. As soon as the sky breaks, the light rain will arrive as promised, and the whole world will be immersed in the depressing rain. middle.

Today is the day of the expedition to Xixia. Early in the morning, 20 soldiers gathered at the school grounds. The emperor and other ministers and family members of the soldiers also came here early, waiting for the start of the expedition.

Light rain fell from the sky, falling on the clothes of the soldiers, polishing the armor on their chests, and polishing the swords and guns in their hands. Although the clothes were wet, and although the buns were dripping, the soldiers all seemed He didn't know what was going on, with a firm expression and a compelling gaze, looking directly at the man in dragon robes on the general stage.

On the school grounds of more than [-] people, the atmosphere was solemn, except for the pattering rain, there was no sound at all, the dark clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, and the rain was getting heavier, as if God knew that they were going on an expedition Usually, seeing them off.

"Auspicious time-"

At this moment, a distant voice suddenly came to mind, and all the soldiers couldn't help but tremble when they heard the words, because the voice came from Jian Tiansi, which proved that the time for the expedition had really arrived.

The emperor Zhao Letian refused the maid's umbrella, and his clothes were all wet. His eyes were shining with confidence, and his every move contained a royal aura, which inadvertently made everyone's minds stable.

"Marshal Lin Qingtian accepts the order!" Zhao Letian said in a majestic voice.

Lin Qingtian was ready a long time ago, when he heard Zhao Letian's words, he strode up to the stage, knelt down on one knee, and said respectfully: "The last general is——"

"Expedition to Xixia, to promote our country's prestige, I ordered you to be the Grand Marshal of Zhengxi, and take full charge of the military affairs. I give you a tiger talisman today. I hope you will return with victory as soon as possible!" Zhao Letian straightened his back, accompanied by the sudden flickering in the sky. Thunder and lightning have a tall and majestic image.

When Lin Qingtian heard the words, a high-spirited fighting spirit flashed in his eyes. Although he was old, his courage remained the same.

"The last general commanded the undefeated Xixia, and I will not return in this life!"

After finishing speaking, Lin Qingtian stood up straight away, drew out his saber, and without the slightest pity in his eyes, he chopped off the head of the death row prisoner in Xixia with one sword, and shouted: "Kill-kill-kill-"

All the soldiers were also affected by Lin Qingtian's high-spirited fighting spirit. Seeing the heads of Xixia death row prisoners rolling on the ground, the blood in their hearts suddenly surged, and they all imitated Lin Qingtian and shouted loudly .

"kill--"

"kill--"

"kill--"

The sound shook the sky, the earth shook, and the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be frightened, becoming thinner and thinner, and finally disappeared.

Seeing that the morale had been mobilized, Lin Qingtian didn't stay any longer, and went directly to the front of the army, waiting for the emperor's final order.

The dark clouds cleared, and the sun shone down. The fiery red sun shone on the school grounds, adding a touch of tragic atmosphere.

"Soldiers, this wine, I respect you—"

At this time, every soldier raised his wine glass high, fixed his eyes on the emperor on the stage, and waited for the emperor's last words.

"You are the most respectable people in my Great Xia. You are the ones who guard Great Xia and every piece of land in Great Xia. I bear the destiny of heaven. At this moment, I want to express my heartfelt feelings to you. This battle—— Our army will win, and Daxia will win—I will be here waiting for the day when you return in triumph—"

After saying that, Zhao Letian directly raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, and all the soldiers did the same. When they raised their heads, 20 soldiers all drank the wine in the glass.

"Bang, bang, bang"

After drinking, the 20 soldiers Qi and the emperor slammed the wine glasses in their hands to the ground, breaking the porcelain cup into countless pieces.

"Listen to my military order, the whole army is dispatched—"

After drinking, Lin Qingtian issued the military order directly. After hearing the military order, 20 soldiers marched solemnly and orderly.

As the vanguard marshal, Lin Xiaoyao was in charge of dispatching the vanguard, so he was at the forefront of the 20 troops. He personally led the 5 Xiaoyao army and [-] ordinary cavalry, a total of [-] horses, directly as the vanguard, and set off.

The relatives and family members of the soldiers bid farewell to all the soldiers on both sides of the road. In these family letters, there are elderly people who are dying, women who are in their youth, and children waiting to be fed. The sound of hope kept ringing.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyao really felt bad, so he hated war, but he had to go to war. Only after experiencing the pain of war, people will know the value of peace, and there will be less war in the future. Some such scenarios.

"Master—"

"Lin Lang—"

Among the crowd, several familiar shouts suddenly sounded, Lin Xiaoyao turned his head quickly, only to see Xiao Wan'er, Zhao Ximeng and others struggling to get closer to him, crying to him continuously.

"Wait for me, wait for me to come back! You all have to be well, live well, and wait for me—"

Lin Xiaoyao shouted loudly to them, then gritted his teeth and turned his head back. He squeezed the horse's belly with his legs and pulled the reins. The horse gave a high-spirited scream and rushed forward quickly.

Under the watchful eyes of the relatives and relatives of the soldiers and soldiers, there is no trace of nostalgia, and there is no trace of lingering in the Zhengxi army. After all, they are still walking towards the distance. The long and winding army straddles the mountains and crosses the raging sea , and finally turned into small black dots on the horizon, disappearing in the eyes of everyone.

Zhao Letian stood on the highest platform of the school grounds and watched the Western Expeditionary Army until they could no longer be seen in sight, then he stepped down from the platform.

"Your Majesty, it's time to return to court..."

Yu Yunwen reminded Zhao Letian.

Zhao Letian nodded. He looked at the relatives of the soldiers and soldiers who had not dispersed around him, feeling quite touched in his heart.

"Old Mr. Yu, do you think my actions are right or wrong? Once the 20 troops go, I don't know how many people will never come back." Zhao Letian said in a deep voice.

Yu Yunwen bowed to Zhao Letian and said: "The emperor is the wise king of Daxia, and his heart of loving the people like a child really makes the ministers happy, but the emperor is more worried. Just like what the Xiaoyao boy said, we must go to war. This is actually saving I will save the lives of more common people..."
