Five days later.
In the second year of Taichu, March 15th.
Daning, Jinzhou.
The sunshine at noon was golden and bright, and the spring breeze from north to south seemed to be blowing from winter to summer, shaking the young leaves on the dead branches.
"Rumble..."
The dull and crowded sound of horse hooves and footsteps shook the earth, and the long official road was full of soldiers marching with their heads down.
The cyan "Shu" flag and the yellow "Ning" flag buzzed under the sky, the scales of the armor flashed with a dazzling cold light, and the entire wilderness was filled with suppressed rumbling sounds.
Only five days have passed since the situation in Xinfeng suddenly changed. The reinforcements to reinforce Xinfeng have traveled 1,500 miles, from Liangzhou to the border of Jinzhou.
Further west from Jinzhou is Jizhou, and then Yuanzhou.
After passing Yuanzhou is the burial place of Ning Yongnian, the former Dafeng Huailing Mansion.
However, now that Huailing Prefecture has returned to Daning, it has also changed from the "prefecture system" to the "state system" and is named Lingzhou.
Further west from Lingzhou is the boundary of Xinfeng.
From Jinzhou to Xinfeng, even a quick march would take about ten days.
Although I don't know if Xu Suisui can persist until then, but this is already the fastest speed among more than 300,000 people.
That's right, this time to reinforce Xinfeng, Ningxia and Shu sent a total of more than 300,000 people.
Among them were 100,000 Shu troops, 200,000 Ning troops, and nearly 30,000 Tengu troops.
As for the remaining 200,000 Daning troops, they still stayed in Liangzhou, guarding against Dajue's comeback.
Three hundred thousand people must face Xinfeng to fight back the nearly one million troops left by the two countries.
As luck would have it, the strength gap between the two was exactly the same as during the Battle of Shuzhou.
At that time, there were only 70,000 to 80,000 people in Shu Kingdom, but there were 300,000 people in the counter-rebellion army. The difference between the two sides was more than three times.
Although Wei Changtian relied on the battle of Niutoushan to perfectly achieve the victory of the weak enemy three times.
But at this moment, no one thinks he can replicate this.
Because there is no comparison between the two battles.
Three people against ten people, thirty people against one hundred people, thirty thousand people against one hundred thousand people, three hundred thousand people against one million people...
Although the above is a three-fold difference in the number of people, the gap in absolute numbers is obviously getting bigger and bigger.
Then, the difficulty of defeating the weak against the strong will increase exponentially.
After all, during the Battle of Shuzhou, Wei Changtian only needed to find a way to close the gap of 200,000 people.
But this time, he wants to wipe out 700,000.
Seven hundred thousand people, this cannot be solved by a single ambush.
So, what exactly is Wei Changtian planning to do?
To this day, no one knows the answer to this question.
Chu Xianping, Liang Zhen, Han Zhao, Du Chang, including the 300,000 ordinary soldiers, almost all of them rushed to Xinfeng without hesitation just because of their absolute trust in Wei Changtian.
As for whether everyone really believes they can win this battle...
Since Mr. Wei said it was okay, it should be okay.
...
...
Afternoon.
Thirty miles south of Jinzhou City.
On the official road in the distance, soldiers were still marching slowly westward in neat formations.
Turning his head to glance at the long black dragon, Wei Changtian withdrew his gaze and looked at Liang Qin with tearful eyes in front of him.
"Okay, stop crying."
"It was my fault this time. I promised to accompany you back to Shu to raise the baby, but I failed to do so."
"It's just that I can't help it. After all, if I don't go to Xinfeng in person, I won't feel at ease..."
"..."
When going to Xinfeng this time, Liang Qin, who is already pregnant, will definitely not be able to go with her.
Although she had been with the army for five days, she had to "separate" from Wei Changtian in Jinzhou and continue heading south back to Shu.
"Brother Changtian..."
Crying and throwing herself into Wei Changtian's arms, Liang Qin felt extremely reluctant to part with him.
In fact, before this, although she would be reluctant to let go, she would never show it so obviously.
But now, perhaps because of her pregnancy, the relationship between her and Wei Changtian had an extra layer of ties, and she couldn't bear it anymore.
"Wuwuwu, I, I'm just one month pregnant..."
"I don't want to go back..."
"Woo woo woo, I want to be with you..."
"I, we haven't decided on the child's name yet, wuwuwu..."
"..."
With tears streaming down his face, Liang Qin cried and said a lot of irrelevant words intermittently, making everyone around him sigh.
Everyone can understand her mood at this moment.
Especially Wei Changtian, if possible, he would certainly be willing to return to Shu to accompany Liang Qin.
But what can be done?
After all, there will definitely be a fight this time. If Liang Qin makes any mistake, it will be too late for him to regret it.
"Okay, I will send you a message every three days to tell you that you are safe..."
After stroking Liang Qin's hair, Wei Changtian persuaded softly: "Besides, Wan'er and the others are all in Shuzhou. With them accompanying you, you shouldn't feel depressed."
"I drink tea every day, practice swordsmanship, and play mahjong. I will go back soon."
"For the sake of our children, I will wrong you for a while..."
"..."
Wei Changtian wasn't impatient, he just comforted him with words like this.
As soon as she heard "child", Liang Qin's crying gradually stopped.
really.
Even if it's just for the sake of the child in his belly, he shouldn't take any risks.
"Well, I see..."
Wiping the corners of her eyes, she looked up at Wei Changtian.
"Brother Changtian, I will take good care of my baby after I go back, don't worry."
"But you promise me that you must go back before the Chinese New Year this year."
"OK......"
Before the New Year.
Liang Qin was pregnant in mid-February, so if nothing unexpected happened, the delivery date would be some time before the Chinese New Year this year.
Wei Changtian naturally understood what he meant, so he immediately nodded and said:
"Okay, I promise you."
"You don't have to wait until the Chinese New Year. I will definitely go back before the beginning of winter."
"good......"
Liang Qin sniffed, a little aggrieved and worried, and warned: "You are not allowed to break your promise this time."
"Don't worry, it won't be."
After smiling, Wei Changtian took Liang Qin's hand and walked to the carriage.
"Okay, get in the car quickly."
"If you don't leave, I'm afraid you will be even more reluctant to leave."
"I can't bear to part with you now..."
Liang Qin muttered softly, but he also knew that he would have to leave sooner or later no matter what, so he gritted his teeth and got into the carriage directly.
"Brother Changtian..."
She stuck her head out of the car window and looked at Wei Changtian outside the car. The tears that she had finally stopped burst out again.
"Stop crying!"
Wei Changtian's face was stern, and he pretended to be serious and said: "Didn't the doctor say that it's not the best time for you to be overjoyed or sad right now, otherwise it will be bad for the fetus in your belly!"
"me......"
After Wei Changtian reminded him, Liang Qin instantly remembered this.
She bit her lip to hold back the tears, but she couldn't help it. Her nose was slightly wrinkled and full of tears, and she looked a little naive.
Wei Changtian walked to the car window in one step, smiled and whispered something.
"..."
Hearing these words, Liang Qin suddenly widened his eyes and was stunned.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wei Changtian quickly winked at the coachman, and the latter immediately waved his whip in understanding.
"Snapped!"
After a clear whip sound, the carriage drove slowly, and more than a hundred mounted guards around also urged their horses.
The sky is cloudless, and the warm midday sun shines golden light.
Just like that, the motorcade finally set off to head south. After more than ten breaths, only Liang Qin's belated shouts were left in the air.
"Brother Changtian! Dad! Sister Liu Shi!"
"Go back early!!"
"..."
Amid the increasingly vague shouts, the carriage in the distance soon turned into a black dot.
Until this time, the few people who stayed in the same place also withdrew their gaze.
"Sir, what did you say to Sister Liang just now?"
Standing next to Wei Changtian, Yang Liushi asked curiously: "What made her stop crying all of a sudden?"
"This..."
Wei Changtian came close to Yang Liushi's ear, lowered his voice and said mysteriously:
"I won't tell you."
"..."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
In Yang Liushi's stunned eyes, Wei Changtian laughed and turned around, walking towards the carriage not far away very proudly.
The sun fell on his body, and the laughter that echoed in the wind had a childishness about "the trick has succeeded".
Yang Liushi stood there blankly, and after a moment, she suddenly burst into laughter.
Then she picked up her long skirt and quickly chased after the figure.
