At the end of September, Yizhou, which was ready to stop, launched an attack on Henghai under the gaze of attention. Twenty thousand palace soldiers and eight thousand soldiers stepped into the hundreds of miles of unmanned land in Dezhou and headed towards Henghai.

The reason why this war is highly anticipated is that if Yizhou wins this battle, the form and strength of the North will undergo earth-shaking changes.

The power of Chengde once again shocked the world.

The Chengde people, who had suffered a tragic failure in Yingzhou, had survived the disaster, but they would definitely choose to lie dormant to restore their strength for a long time. However, the Chengde people's reaction almost shocked everyone.

The pain continued, so the Chengde people launched a large-scale counterattack war.

First, two large armies attacked Zhenwu. Under Zhenwu's rule, Dingzhou was in danger, which forced Gao Pian to defeat in Daizhou. Zhang Zhongwu had to suspend his attack on Hedong and instead sent a large army to support Zhenwu to ensure that Dingzhou Yizhou was not occupied by the Chengde people. This made Gao Pian finally breathe a long sigh of relief. He could finally free up his hands to revitalize his momentum and gather troops to deal with Zhang Zhongwu's attack.

When Dingzhou Yizhou was in a deadlock, Cheng De actually attacked Henghai with the power of Yizhou, and the strength of Yizhou on the surface also surprised everyone.

Yizhou actually dispatched eight thousand soldiers and twenty thousand soldiers.

Such an army is enough to match some smaller military governors. Among the four prefectures of Chengde, Yizhou is only third in strength, slightly stronger than Shenzhou. If we compare the strength of Yizhou, then Chengde's war potential will be enough to shock everyone.

The vanguard of the Yizhou Army was led by Shi Zhuang as the commander general. The commander led a thousand soldiers under his command, and gathered Shen Congxing from Shiyi and 1,500 cavalrymen from Li De who were already operating in Dezhou. They set out first on September 27. The main force led by Li Ze and Cao Xintong also set out in Dezhou after the oath in Wuyi on October 5.

In the Li family's mansion, Li Ze wore armor specially made for him by the craftsmen at home. These armor leaves were all made with the latest craftsmanship. Each armor leaf weighed lighter, but the protection was several times stronger than ordinary armor leaves. The whole armor was only less than twenty kilograms together. Unfortunately, such armor leaves were completely unable to be mass-produced on a large scale. The craftsmen slowly knocked out such one piece by hammer, which took several people a whole year. This made Li Ze very regretful. If he could produce it on a large scale, his cavalry would be equipped with this armor, and their combat level would inevitably be higher.

Originally, this pair of armor leaves was painted with a layer of gold powder by the craftsmen, which was so yellow that it was extremely eye-catching. Especially when standing in the sun and being shined by the light, it was really shining like a god descending to earth. But when Li Ze saw this pair of armor leaves, he ordered the gold powder to be scraped off and painted into silver gray.

The scene of the whole city wearing golden armor will always only appear in the movie. On the real battlefield, wearing such armor will stand out from the crowd, which will make the enemy launch a fierce attack on his place like a chicken blood. Being everyone's target on the battlefield will definitely not feel good.

So this golden armor turned into the current inconspicuous look of the craftsmen's sighs.

Mrs. Wang's eyes were filled with tears, and she carefully checked for Li Ze whether the silk ribbon of the armor was tied tightly. She touched here and knocked there, and tested it 360 degrees without blind spots. She wanted to say something, but finally her lips trembled for a while, but she said nothing.

"Mom, don't worry, this time my son sent troops to attack the dogs, there is nothing to worry about." Li Ze smiled and looked at the woman in the yard and said, "I will be back in at most two months. This time I will go to the beach as soon as I enter. At that time, I will bring you countless beautiful shells, um, or conchs that can be blown."

He rolled up his palms, made a conch kiss, and blew it a few times.

The women in the yard were reluctant to look smiling, especially Mrs. Wang. In the first half of her life, there were countless such things to send the men to the family to the war.

Under her gaze, my father and brother all stepped out of the house with confidence and walked onto the battlefield, but in the end, they did not come back.

She wanted to give her a few words to her son, but then she thought that it would be too unlucky, so she could only swallow the words she said.

"Tian Bo, after I leave, I will leave all the family affairs to you." Li Ze looked at Tian Bo with a serious face and said. "I am not here, and the warning at home should not be relaxed, but should be strengthened. We have many enemies, not only in the open but also in the secret. We must not let our opponents have any room to take advantage of."

Tian Bo bowed solemnly and said, "Don't worry, even if Tian Bo doesn't sleep, he will make his home solid."

Tian Bo is a veteran and has rich experience. Li Ze nodded with a smile. When he walked to the side, he took Xia He's hand: "There is Tian Bo at home, and you have to worry more about the matter outside. I have sent someone to call Yang Kai back. You two will look at Wuyi for me."

Xia He bit her lip and nodded vigorously.

"In addition to the four female guards assigned to you by Xinyuehu, I have asked Tian Bo to equip you with four male guards." Li Ze said: "Be careful."

"Why do I need so many guards?" Xia He shook his head repeatedly.

Li Ze smiled and pointed at her forehead: "This is why you haven't figured out your own weight yet. Now it's not just Wuyi, Yizhou, and your reputation is also known in Chengde. So, if someone wants to target us, you are definitely one of the goals. During the period when I'm not here, you should never travel alone. Don't run around to do some research. During this period, you and Yang Kai will only stabilize the rear for me."

"I understand." Xia He said softly. "Young Master, you must be fine."

"Don't worry, you have been with me for so long, don't you know who I am? If you really have a bad momentum, the first one to slap your butt is definitely your young master."

In the last sentence, he lowered his voice and said softly in Xia He's ear.

Xia He burst out laughing. He had been with Li Ze for more than ten years. Not to mention that Li Ze really has the kind of goodness and he would go away when he saw something wrong.

The intimacy between Li Ze and Xia He can only make the women in the back house envious. Even Mrs. Wang was a little jealous, but this was impossible. Who made Xia He follow Li Ze since he was seven years old, and now his relationship with Li Ze has gone further? What's more, Mrs. Wang now knows more or less the importance of Xia He in the Li Ze system. To put it simply, although Xia He does not hold any official position now, in fact, it is in charge of the economic power within the entire Li Ze sphere of influence.

Now Xia He usually lives in Li Ze's courtyard, but she already has an independent courtyard, but that courtyard is very cautious and guarded by Li Ze's personal guards day and night. Ordinary people cannot step into this courtyard at all. This courtyard is where Xia He works.

Mrs. Wang once made an excuse to go in. The personal guards could block other people, but naturally they could not.

As soon as he entered Xia He's room, Mrs. Wang was shocked, because in the huge main house, there were bookshelves on all four walls, and the bookshelf were not placed on them, but books, but books of account books. Mrs. Wang took out one casually and was dizzy when she saw it. The key was that she couldn't understand what was written on it at all.

He recognized the word "大发", but there were countless special symbols for her, which was like a heavenly book.

Li Ze taught Xia He Arabic numerals, and later he drew several clever and clever people from the secret camp as Xia He's assistants. Apart from them, others could not see the secrets of the things in the room.

But Mrs. Wang still saw some of the statements Xia He was writing, such as macro-control, micro-guidance, policy intervention, fund allocation, government subsidies, etc., and they all recognize the words, but when they are connected, they don’t understand the meaning.

Although she couldn't understand, Mrs. Wang finally figured out what Xia He was busy with. Even though she didn't go out and didn't step into the two doors, she also knew the importance of the money bag. Whether it was managing the people or establishing the army, if you don't have money, everything would be useless. If you want to do anything, you need money to guarantee it.

Mrs. Wang was naturally relieved of Xia He's loyalty. However, seeing that Xia He is so important, Wang Fu's wife was a little worried about her daughter-in-law who would be entering the house soon.

Xia He, who can manage such important things, is naturally extremely powerful. He is definitely not as gentle and gentle as she seems. Mrs. Wang also heard from Tian Bo that Xia He once cursed Sun Lei, the county magistrate of Xindu, and left in a mess with sweat.

Thinking of the prospective daughter-in-law Liu Ruyan, who is so naive that she doesn't know the suffering and sinister world, Mrs. Wang is sometimes a little worried.

Li Ze didn't think about these things at all now. His attention was now focused on the war in front of him. After saying goodbye to everyone, he waved his hand to everyone and said, "Let's go."

He turned around and walked out with great strides, and Li Mi, who was a personal bodyguard, also followed closely.
