"Well, the treaty has been signed. I will tell His Majesty that the army will march north soon. Will Your Highness stay and have dinner together?"

Bai Su looked at the signed contract, nodded in satisfaction, and immediately asked Xiao Li beside him.

Xiao Li's face was already blushing, and he looked at Bai Su without looking: "No...no, I have something to do, so I'll go back first."

After all, she put on her clothes and left in a hurry without bothering to say hello.

outside the study.

Da Qiao walked over with the drink, just in time to meet the disheveled and blushing Princess Yueshi.

The two looked at each other and separated immediately.

Xiao Li bit her lip, lowered her head and left silently.

Da Qiao put the drink on the table, and asked with some doubts: "Master, what's wrong with her?"

This Princess Yueshi was still very personable when she came, but when she left, she seemed to have died in society, fleeing for her life.

"Perhaps she is in a hurry."

Bai Su looked at the contract in his hand, compared with his previous conditions, there were [-] more horses.

It seems that the princess of the Yue family had no time to bargain after being ashamed and angry just now. She just wanted to sign the terms and leave here early, which actually gave him some unexpected gains.

He rubbed his chin, looked at the back of Xiao Li who fled in embarrassment, and couldn't help smiling.

This Yueshi princess is indeed quite beautiful, and it would be a lie to say that she is not attracted to her, but he never thought about taking this opportunity to take possession of her directly.

First of all, although this twisted melon quenches thirst, it is not sweet.

As a promising young man, he naturally doesn't like to do this kind of persecution.

after all……

He prefers to be below than above.

Now, even if he has the heart, he can't attack Princess Yueshi now.

Sister Zheng attaches great importance to this matter, and she always attracts people's attention. If Princess Yueshi is found to be walking with a limp the next day, how can she spare him lightly.

After all, there is a saying in the art of war that attacking the city is the bottom and attacking the heart is the top.

Thinking of this, Bai Su chuckled lightly, "Da Qiao, help me grind ink."

Da Qiao was taken aback for a moment, and asked, "What is the master going to do?"

Bai Su chuckled lightly and said, "Now that the task assigned to me by Your Majesty has been completed, and the imperial army is about to go northward, I naturally want to write a poem and present it to Your Majesty. When Your Majesty is happy, I can also take this opportunity to ask for leave to catch fish." .”

"Understood, sir."

Da Qiao ran out quickly and went to study ink.

The night is getting darker, in Xianyang Palace.

Just when Sister Zheng was about to rest, an envoy from outside the hall ran in and reported: "Your Majesty... Young Master Bai ordered someone to send a letter."

Sister Zheng sat in front of the table and gently put down the bamboo slips in her hand.

There was a smile in her phoenix eyes: "It's probably because he negotiated a contract, and he came to present it for me to see."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The messenger submitted the letter.

Sister Zheng lowered her eyes and saw that Yueshi was not only willing to provide more food and grass, but also gave [-] more horses, a smile suddenly appeared on her face.

"I knew that with his three-inch tongue, how could that yellow-haired girl Princess Yueshi be his opponent? Yes, yes... This kid has made a contribution to me since he came to Xianyang. It will be just around the corner to become a minister of the future imperial court."

The envoy said respectfully: "Your Majesty, besides sending the treaty, Mr. Bai also wrote a poem, saying that he would send it to Your Majesty."

"Oh, let me see..."

A trace of curiosity flashed in Zhengjie's phoenix eyes, she lowered her eyes, and said softly: "Qinghai's long clouds and dark snow-capped mountains, the isolated city looks at Yanmen Pass in the distance, the yellow sand wears black armor in all battles, and if you don't break the Xiongnu, you will never return..."

After she finished reading, she was taken aback for a moment, and her whole body froze for a moment.

I just felt a thunder blast in my mind, and my scalp felt numb for a while, and goose bumps all over my body.

After a long time, I couldn't help sighing, "Good... good poetry."

The momentum of this word is magnificent, and it is quite majestic.

This Bai Su...has the appearance of a literary saint! ! !

Chapter 74 Don't Break the Huns, Never Return

The next day.

above the hall.

Whether it was the political sister sitting on the throne, or the civil and military officials in the court, all of them had fierce eyes at this time, and "kind" smiles flashed on their faces.

Since the Huns were expelled from the north, Baiyue was expanded to the south, and the world was unified, it has been a whole year since the Great Xia has not made any large-scale external actions.

This made many generals in the court feel itchy.

After all, unlike civil servants, they need real military exploits to decapitate the heads of the enemy army to be promoted to ranks. They have no chance to make meritorious service for three or four years. This makes many people look at the moon every night and shake their heads and sigh.

Now the war machine of Great Xia, after several years of cultivation, is finally about to start operating again today.

With the opportunity to be promoted, no matter whether it is a general in the court or a soldier in the army, they are all sharpening their swords, waiting for an order from the political sister.

Through the hanging bead curtain, Sister Zheng looked at the wholehearted expressions of the people below, and her vermilion lips curled up involuntarily.

She took a deep breath and ordered: "Now that the treaty with the Yuezhi Kingdom has been signed, it's time to go out to the north to attack the Huns. Bai Su, you are very talented...you will be responsible for drafting the decree to expose the crimes of the Huns." Tell the world that the army will march northward today."

As soon as Sister Zheng changed her previous attitude, her whole body was like a sharp sword drawn out of its sheath, exuding a fierce and majestic aura that made people afraid to look directly at her.

Since sweeping the six kingdoms and expelling the Xiongnu from the north, there is no enemy in the world who can threaten Daxia. She hasn't been so serious for a long time.

Originally, with Daxia's current national strength, military expansion has almost reached its limit.

After all, every time the logistics transportation distance increases by a thousand miles, the consumption of food, grass and supplies will double. It is extremely difficult to support the army to go out to expedition to Monan.

But now Bai Su advises her, solves the biggest logistics problem, and greatly increases the expansion of the Central Plains.

Naturally, Sister Zheng would not let go of this opportunity. She wanted to go straight out of the fortress and cross the Great Wall to drive out all the Xiongnu from Monan, so as to build an eternal foundation for the Great Xia and the Central Plains.

"The minister takes orders..."

Bai Su was stunned for a moment, then stood up immediately, and saluted with hands clasped.

Although he didn't write any appeals against thieves, he wasn't too worried.

After all, I've never eaten pork, haven't I seen a pig running, so it shouldn't be a problem to take a picture of a pig.

"Order Meng Tian as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, Meng Wu, Wang Ben, Nei Shiteng, and Yang Duan as the generals accompanying the army, leading 20 soldiers and horses out of the fortress, crossing the Great Wall, and uniting with the soldiers and horses of the Yuezhi Kingdom to attack the Xiongnu in the north."

In order to prevent the bereaved families from the six kingdoms, Sister Zheng took advantage of the imperial army's expedition to cause trouble in the Central Plains, and did not send all the troops out.

Instead, a part was left behind, staying in Guanzhong to deter the remnants of the six countries.

Although the 20 troops of Daxia seem to be a little less than the more than 30 Huns, the equipment used by these troops is not ordinary.

Not only do they have the best crossbows and arrows in the empire, but also horseshoes are installed on the horses one after another, which ensures that the army can run thousands of miles in the desert without any serious wear and tear.

Even the weapons in his hands and the armor on his body have undergone a round of updates, and they have been replaced with sharper, more familiar and durable irons.

The copper swords, which were originally sixty to seventy centimeters in length, turned into iron swords over one meter long. The lethality of the Daxia soldiers increased by more than a star and a half compared to before.

Therefore, despite the fact that the number of people has decreased a lot, the combat effectiveness has not decreased but increased. Coupled with the natural and sturdy folk customs of the Great Xia army, it is quite like Wei Wuxiong's style of 50 people who defeated the [-] Xia army.

Whether it is a political sister or a general in the court, after seeing the benefits of reforming iron and military rations, they are full of confidence in defeating the Huns.

"The last general takes orders..."

Meng Wu and the others came out one after another, with excitement in their eyes.

They had been waiting three or four years for Sister Zheng's words, and now it was finally time to fight and make meritorious deeds.

The court meeting will soon be over.

Under the order of Sister Zheng, the war machine of Daxia began to operate rapidly.

A call to action for the Northern Expedition to the Huns spread from the imperial court to all parts of the world.

Its content is that the Xiongnu invaded our territory of the Central Plains one after another, plundered my money, killed my people, and humiliated my Central Plains. His Majesty the First Emperor will endure it.

Now seeing our people in Zhongyuan suffer so much, I can't bear it anymore, and decided to send my troops out of the fortress, cross the Great Wall, and launch a self-defense counterattack against the Xiongnu.

For a time, the call to action caused quite a stir in the world.

Some people who lived in the land of Yanzhao and were often infested by nomads applauded Sister Zheng's orders one after another, and they had a little more good opinion of Sister Zheng.

However, some people who lived in Chu and Yue and didn't understand the suffering of the Huns' invasion didn't feel much. This was just an ordinary foreign war against the barbarians.

Some praised, some dismissed.

But no matter what, the image of the country of tigers and wolves in the Great Xia in the past has faintly changed after this letter was issued.

However, the bereaved families of the six countries all over the world have different thoughts after seeing this crusade letter.

For a time, undercurrents began to surge everywhere.

...........................................

............................................

a few days later.

Meng Wu, Wang Ben and others held a swearing-in expedition outside Xianyang City.

Sister Zheng led a group of civil and military ministers to see him off one after another, and Bai Su followed behind the crowd.

Originally, Meng Wu and the others wanted to take Bai Su with them and go out with the army. After all, with such a talented person who coordinated the logistics, their chances of winning were one point higher, and by the way, they also gave Bai Su a chance to make meritorious service.

It's a pity that before Bai Su could speak, Sister Zheng refused decisively.

What a joke.

She managed to get one, such a powerful little expert in financial management, and it's been less than two days of luxury, just in case something happened to Bai Su like Han Fei back then, and it disappeared with a click.

Wouldn't she be heartbroken to death?

Sister Zheng is already frightened of poverty, and she no longer wants to go back to the days when finances were tight.

After all, if she can spend money to get the people of the six countries to come and serve corvee, why would she use coercive means to force the people of the six countries to work with dissatisfaction.

The high-stress days of walking on the wire rope every day, falling off if you are not careful, and breaking your body to pieces are really exhausting.

Sister Zheng turned her head and glanced at the very inconspicuous Bai Su who was standing silently in the corner, a rare tenderness flashed in her phoenix eyes.

All this is his credit.

That being the case, then take this opportunity to make him famous all over the world as a reward.

She curled her red lips slightly, and immediately said in front of thousands of soldiers:

poetry?

All civil and military officials and a group of soldiers looked at Bai Su with question marks all over their heads.

And Bai Su also looked confused, when did he write poems for the army? Didn't he just want to please the political sister and want to fish?

Sister Zheng didn't care about his reaction, and said in a loud voice: "Qinghai's long clouds and dark snow-capped mountains, the isolated city looks at Yanmen Pass in the distance, and the yellow sand wears black armor in all battles. If you don't break the Xiongnu, you will never return..."

Her voice was born with a king, that Ling Ran's aura, and the poems were read out of her mouth, full of appeal.

this poem...

the word! ! !

It is simply tailor-made for today's scene, it is really suitable.

After listening to it, people's blood spurted, and they were so excited that they wished to draw out their long swords immediately, and now they rushed to the court of the Huns non-stop.

Let go of a poem by Zheng Jie.

Everyone looked frenziedly, looking at Sister Zheng and Bai Su with excited expressions, their chests were full of pride for a moment, they raised their weapons and shouted loudly.

"If you don't break the Xiongnu... you will never return it!"
