Two more days later.

The Wu family, who controlled the military command of Baimaqiang Town, and the She Tuo family, who controlled the Yan army command of Heishui Town, also joined forces to reach Lintao Road.

In Lintao, nearly 100,000 soldiers gathered in a blink of an eye.

The former Lintao Road chief supervisor was sentenced to death by Li Xiushu, and there were not many defenders left in Lintao Road. If the Wu family, She Tuo family and others were willing to take down Lintao Road, and even the surrounding Fengxiang and Lizhou East Road were easy. Only the Lizhou West Road chief supervisor Jia Fenghua was able to save the Lizhou West Road defenders because they surrendered to the Empress. They would be in a dilemma to break into Lizhou West Road.

If they were willing to pay the price, with their current military strength, they would probably not be able to stop Jia Fenghua, Li Zhengqin and others.

But Tuoba Wu and others did not have this intention.

Their real goal is Zhongxing Mansion, which is Li Xiushu.

Even if they took over Lintao, Fengxiang and other places, they would not defeat the Western Xia imperial guards, Gansu and Xiangqing's two major military officers, they would not be considered as overthrowing the empress.

Only by directly attacking the Yellow Dragon can the empress's rule collapse instantly.

After the army of the Baimaqiang Town Military Office and the Yan Army Office of Heishui Town arrived in Lintao Road, they only selected places to station in the Lintao border, and did not gather with the Tuoba family's army.

It seems that they are all adhering to the Empress's will.

At this time, Yue Peng finally returned to Xiangyang Prefecture.

The Xianglong Military Region has the four armies of Tiankui, Tianxiong, Tianjie and Tianyong, which are elite troops that have been experienced for a long time.

Yue Peng had sent a message back to Xiangyang Prefecture as early as Lin'an Prefecture. As soon as he arrived in the city, he learned that Liu Zijun and Du Hu had led their troops to the southern border of the southwest Beijing Road.

The two of them were in charge of the Tianxiong Army and the Tianyong Army respectively. They were both old friends of Wen Tianxiang. They followed Wen Tianxiang's veterans who had been fighting south and north for many years, and they cooperated with each other naturally.

After Yue Peng learned that the two had led their troops to the border more than ten days ago, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he also learned from Xiao Yulin that the Kuizhou Road Garage Army and the Changde Prefecture Garage Army had also been on standby.

Xianglong Military Region has the jurisdiction of Kuizhou, Jinghubei and Southwest Jingwei.

Among them, there are 20,000 garrison troops stationed on Jinghu North Road and Jiangling and Changde Prefectures; Kuizhou Road and Kuizhou Road and Xiangyang Prefectures.

Although there are many new soldiers in these garrison troops, and their combat effectiveness is definitely not as good as that of the imperial guards. But when facing the Western Xia army, they are of course still rare elites.

Moreover, Yue Peng had no intention of mobilizing the newly recruited soldiers from the army.

Even so, the Xianglong Military Region can mobilize more than 70,000 troops under the jurisdiction of various places. This is enough for Yue Peng.

Because the Lin'an Prefecture incident was delayed, it still seemed a bit hasty to deal with the Xixia incident.

After Yue Peng entered the city, he spoke to Xiao Yulin while walking and headed straight to the Grand Marshal's Mansion. At the same time, he also sent soldiers in the army to summon generals of the army to discuss matters in the mansion.

It is even more difficult to make the Xixia army abandon its weapons and surrender.

Soon after, Yue Peng, Xiao Yulin and other generals arrived in the Grand Marshal's Mansion.

Yue Peng led the special forces and reconnaissance regiments of the various troops to Lin'an Prefecture to return to their respective constructions.

The generals of each army went to the Grand Marshal's Office to discuss matters.

When the generals arrived, Yue Peng sat in the first place and just spoke, he issued an order, saying: "Transfer the order of the commander and let the garrison army of Changde Prefecture, the garrison army of Jiangling Prefecture and the garrison army of Kuizhou Prefecture each send 10,000 soldiers to Zhushan County, Fangzhou. Tiankui and Tianjie are on standby, and soon follow the commander south to resist the Western Xia army! Xiangyang Prefecture Arbitrage Army and Tianlao, Tianhui are guarding Xiangyang, and there is no slackness!"

His meaning is very obvious.

Fangzhou is the prefecture on the southeast side of Jingxi South Road, and Zhushan County is the southernmost county town in Fangzhou.

Let the garrison troops of each army reach Zhushan County, so that they will follow him to resist the Western Xia imperial guards.

He personally led the Tiankui and Tianjie armies forward, and this was to use the most elite troops to deal with the Western Xia army.

In Tianlao, Tianhui and Xiangyang Prefecture Guardians guarded Xiangyang to prevent the Yuan Dynasty outside the northern border of the Song Dynasty.

Although the Yuan Dynasty declined, it was still a fierce tiger after all. Yue Peng could not be unprepared for it.

After all, no one knows whether the Yuan Dynasty will burn its course and take this opportunity to fight the Song Dynasty again.

Tianlao, Tianhui and Xiangyang Prefecture garrisons are mostly new troops and are not elite, but it is enough to guard Xiangyang Prefecture.

When the Yuan Dynasty wanted to send troops to attack Song, it would always be necessary to prepare, and news would be spread to the Song Dynasty. At that time, the Flying Dragon Army and the Flying Sky Army in Changsha would have time to provide support.

"The last general will receive the order!"

As soon as Yue Peng finished speaking, a sequel of responses rang out in the hall.

Xiao Yulin, Zhao Hu and other generals all stood up and bowed to Yue Peng.

Then, the generals hurriedly left the Grand Marshal's Mansion again.

Now that the Xixia army is gathering, the time left for them is not enough and there is no tolerance for much slackness.

Yue Peng also left the hall and walked behind the Grand Marshal's Mansion.

Go to the yard where he lives.

Chen Yushu was taking their children to play in the yard.

The child was sharp-eyed, and Yue Peng had just entered the door when he saw it.

The little guy, who was less than two years old, ran to Yue Peng staggeringly, shouting in a humble voice: "Father, Father!"

A very soft smile suddenly appeared on Yue Peng's slightly solemn face. He squatted down and held the child in his hand, and kissed him on the child's face.

Chen Yushu looked at Yue Peng with a gentle smile, her eyes very gently.

Their small family is naturally very happy.

Yue Peng also sincerely loves the kind and gentle Chen Yushu.

The two of them had failed to do what they had done before, but now they are nothing.

It even made the two love deeper.

Yue Peng held the child in front of Chen Yushu and hugged Chen Yushu in his arms.

Chen Yushu leaned his head in his arms.

It seems that you can hear the powerful beating sound of the heart.

The two of them enjoyed the tenderness of this moment.

After passing by for dozens of seconds, Chen Yushu said with a little concern: "I heard that Xixia intends to send troops to attack our Song Dynasty?"

Even she heard about this news, and it is conceivable how widely the news that the Song Dynasty wanted to start a war in the Western Xia Dynasty was circulating.

"yes……"

Yue Peng sighed softly, "The emperor doesn't know what it is for. It is said that he sent someone to force his way into the Xixia Palace, which angered the Empress of Xixia, which made the Empress angry and disregarded the alliance with our dynasty and gathered a large army to start a war with our Song Dynasty."

As he said that, he frowned slightly, "But the Emperor said in Lin'an Mansion that we were just capturing the Western Xia imperial guards. What are the plans for the Emperor?"

Chen Yushu chuckled, "Even you can't figure out what the emperor means, how can I know?"

As she said that, she gently stroked Yue Peng's chest and said reluctantly: "It seems that you will soon lead the army to the war again?"

Yue Peng nodded with some guilt, "It's true. I plan to lead the army south tomorrow. Yushu, as the Grand Marshal of the Xianglong Military Region of the Song Dynasty, I have no choice but to neglect you and Tian Ren. I hope you don't blame me. When the Song Dynasty rests with peace of mind, I will accompany you and Tian Ren at home."

Chen Yushu nodded gently, "I don't blame you. The emperor has great kindness to our Yue family and the Chen family. How can you delay national affairs for your family? You only need to protect yourself carefully. You are the Grand Marshal now, so you don't have to lead the way like before. That's what the generals in the army do."

Yue Peng chuckled, "I know all this."

Then the two stopped talking about this.

The next day, Yue Peng led the Tiankui Army and the entire Tianjie Army, and the special forces of the Tianjie and Tianxiong armies left Xiangyang Prefecture and headed south.

The rest of the Song Dynasty were calm, and they were still immersed in the pride and joy of the Lin'an military parade. However, Kuizhou Road, Tongchuanfu Road and other places inevitably felt like dark clouds were overwhelming the city.

Although Zheng Yihang and others had not returned to Shuzhong, they had already sent letters to the army when they were in Lin'an Prefecture. At this time, there were also generals in the army who were coordinating.

It can be said that both the Xixia and the Song dynasties are being arranged in full swing.

In just a few days thereafter.

Zhao Dongting led Lu Xiufu and other civil and military officials, and Zhong Jian and Xiyi finally returned to Changsha City.

Zheng Yihang, Batong and others said goodbye to Zhao Dongting at the city gate because of the Western Xia incident, and then led the special forces regiments in the army to Shu.

Xi Yi followed the army.
Chapter completed!
