    "Report to the Lord of the Great Court immediately. The Parthian Army is going to fight with all their strength. Everyone should enter the designated position immediately." Bai Zheng shouted loudly on the Yangguan Tower.

    As the commander-in-chief of the Yangguan area, Bai Zheng could only report this critical situation to Huo Tang when he saw this terrifying siege device that had once made the general helpless.  Several such equipment also appeared at Yumen Pass dozens of miles away, but they were not as large as Yangguan in terms of siege equipment and number of troops.

    The news that Huo Guang returned to Chang'an and made Liu Jin the emperor's grandson, and that he became a general, has spread back to Hexi.  This is really good news for the soldiers and people of Hexi, and Huo Guang is already the general of the Han Dynasty, so the power of the entire Hexi naturally falls into the hands of Huo Tang and Dongfang Shuo.

    One person is in charge of the army and one person is in charge of government. At present, Hexi's military and political affairs are in good order.

    " It is rare for a woman to be in charge of the military throughout the ages, especially in the Hexi Army where famous generals gather. It can be said that Huo Tang has reached a height that no woman has ever reached.

    The Governor's Mansion of Dunhuang, where the general's wife and his children now live.  On the side of the Dudu's Mansion, a brand new mansion connected to the Dudu's Mansion has been built. This is the center of the entire Hexi Army and the location of the Privy Council.

    The Privy Council and the Governor's Palace are called two mansions, but because of the special relationship between their owners, they are actually connected internally, with two independent gates.

    In a study room of the Governor's Mansion, Huo An, who was only seven years old, was sitting in front of the desk, carefully reading military and political documents one after another.  These are documents that record major military and political events in Hexi, and ordinary Hexi Qianshi officials may not be able to see them.

    "An'er is looking through the recent documents again You just need to understand these things. You are still young after all, so don't be tired!" Huo An was watching intently when a soft and pleasant voice suddenly came into the study.  Inside, he quickly raised his head and saw Huo Tang walking towards him in a light green dress.

    "The child has met his mother." Huo An bowed respectfully to his adoptive mother.

    Strangely enough, Huo Tang, who used to be extremely demanding of Huo An in Chang'an, seems to have become a different person since coming to Dunhuang.  Not only is he no longer as strict with Huo An as before, but he has even become very doting on him, as if he wants to train Huo An into a second-generation ancestor who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and Huo Tang seems to have become a  The kind of loving mother who loses her son.

    At first, even Huo An felt strange. He even thought that his adoptive mother was testing him, but instead he became more conscious and hardworking.  However, as time went by, Huo An found that his adoptive mother pampered him more and more, and it didn't seem like she was deliberately testing herself.  It's just that at this time, Huo An has developed good habits. Even if Huo Tang intends to indulge him, he has no interest in those games and comfortable life.

    "Your father will be very happy to know that An'er is so diligent." Huo Tang approached and looked at Huo An with a doting look on his face.

    "My child just wishes he could grow up quickly so that he could share the worries of his father and mother. I heard that the Parthians have begun to build pendulum-like siege equipment again. I wonder if my father is still well in Chang'an?" Huo An said respectfully.  Said, but he habitually added the word 'we' when talking about mother.

    Huo An was both respectful and afraid of his adoptive mother.  Ever since he vaguely understood that the woman in front of him, whom he called mother, had an obsessive love for his father, he felt that he was under great pressure every time he faced Huo Tang.  Huo An felt closer and closer to his biological mother, whom he called aunt. Perhaps this was because blood was thicker than water.

    "An'er has really grown up You have to believe in your father. He is the great general of the Han Dynasty and the most powerful man in the world. Mother has just received the news that your father has sent Wang Yuanyou and  Su Wu went to conquer the barbarians in the southwest. As for the Parthians Don't worry, An'er. Hexi is your father's inheritance. As long as my mother is here, no one can get involved in your father's things. That man named Eurobazuo  No way!" Although Huo Tang is a woman, there is a heroic spirit in her words that no man can have. In addition, she has been in charge of the Privy Council for a long time, and the aura of a superior person who is not angry and has authority is getting stronger and more obvious.

    "But what if Eurobazo attacks the city with all his strength? The child also learned from the veterans who came back from Guishan City that even his father has no way to deal with that kind of thing." Huo An still looked a little uneasy, because of the power and power of the Parthian Legion.  He also understands Eurobazo's resourcefulness. Although Huo An is not very young, he still understands a lot.

    "Mother is here to say goodbye to An'er. Then mother will go to Yangguan in person, which will be the main direction of Xi'an's attack. Your father is not here, so mother will go to meet the Prime Minister of Xi'an!" Huo Tang's face showed a smile.  He said with a calm smile, but there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

    Then she subconsciously gently flipped the hair beside her ears, a simple and tinyThe movements are full of indescribable charm.  It's a pity that Huo An doesn't understand, and no one here can appreciate it!

    "Mother wants to go to Yangguan in person It's too dangerous Why don't you let your child accompany you?" Huo An was shocked when he heard this. The battle between the two passes lasted for a long time. How dangerous it is there can only be determined from the  Huo An could feel it from the battle reports in the past.

    "It's really dangerous if you are a little kid. You can stay in the house with peace of mind. Don't forget your mother is the grand master of the courtyard!" Huo Tang knelt down slightly and arranged his hands for Huo An.  When I touched my clothes, it really looked like mother and son were saying goodbye.  But when he finally said the words "Da Yuan Jun", his aura became like a mountain, and Huo An, who was so close, felt a little out of breath.

    "I wish my mother a good start!" Huo An subconsciously took a half step back, bowed and said to Huo Tang.

    "Hahaboringnot like your father at all!" Huo Tang pursed his lips and said something incomprehensible, then patted Huo An on the head, turned around and walked out without saying anything more.  study.

    Outside the study, Huo Tang's maid in white was already waiting, and there was also a young Mohist disciple, holding a brocade-wrapped Black Eyebrow Sword in one hand. This Mohist disciple was the young swordsman who used his sword to cut through the bamboo staff in the secret pavilion.

    "Are you all ready?" Huo Tang asked as he walked out of the study.  She didn't stop at her feet and continued walking forward.

    The maid in white and the swordsman disciple immediately followed Huo Tang. The swordsman disciple respectfully replied behind Huo Tang: "The elder has sent a message and everything is ready."

    "Go and get ready, we will leave for Yangguan immediately." Huo Tang continued, as she walked through the corridors and walked towards the outside of the house.

    Dunhuang is only a few dozen miles away from Yangguan and Yumenguan, and two wide and flat straight roads were built a few years ago to connect them. It can be reached quickly in less than half a day from Dunhuang.

    At this moment, the two passes are densely and orderly covered with a large number of ballistae. Moreover, the type of ballistae that appears in Hexi is not the standard ballistae of the Han army in the past, but a larger and more sophisticated continuous ballistae, an almost  It is the same width as the city wall and requires ten people to operate it at the same time. It is a terrifying war machine that can continuously fire sixty giant crossbow arrows at a time.

    And the tails of these giant crossbows are connected with ropes. After being fired, they can be quickly rolled up and recovered by winches and manual pulleys.  This was also made by Mohist disciples in the past six months. After improvements by Mohist masters of all generations, the technology of this continuous crossbow motorcycle has become quite mature.

    This is the defense on the city wall, and it is behind the wall that the Parthians cannot see.  A large number of Mohist disciples are also busy. Dozens of them are busy around a giant machine buried deep in the ground. This is a rarely seen instrument. The entire machine looks to be the size of a defense, and there are various gears in it.  The pulley-hinge combination looks like a complicated machine, and unlike those wooden machines, most of the components of this machine are made of metal.

    Next to these huge instruments, there are many stones the size of a person's arms. The stones weigh about forty or fifty kilograms. In addition to the stones, there are also buckets of anointing oil. Some Mohist disciples are pouring the anointing oil on the stones with wooden spoons.  On top of the block, other people poured the anointing oil into water bags. These water bags are much larger than those commonly used. They are not commonly made from cow and sheep stomachs, but are made from animal  It is made of sewn leather, and the water bag has been filled with ointment.

    The atmosphere of war enveloped the entire two levels. Both the Hexi Army and the Parthian Army were making final preparations. It seemed that what was about to happen would be the final decisive battle between the two armies.

    On the straight road leading to Yangguan, a large carriage drove rapidly into Yangguan, escorted by hundreds of cavalry. The Mohist disciples and Hexi soldiers who were busy inside the city all saw the carriage, and these people stopped their hands one after another.  He bowed and saluted the carriage that was passing by. A flag embroidered with a blue phoenix bird was fluttering in the wind.

    The carriage stopped at the outermost Guan Tower. At this moment, Bai Zheng and other Yangguan generals had also descended from the Guan Tower to greet the man in the carriage.

    "Welcome to the Lord of the Great Court!" Bai Zheng and other generals as well as the nearby soldiers all bowed and saluted, and shouted in unison. Thousands of people spoke in unison, and the sound could be heard for miles.

    Huo Tang walked out of the carriage still dressed in a light green dress. Her hair was pulled up into a high bun. There was a kind of majesty unique to women in her dignity.

    "Without courtesy, all officers and men will follow me to the tower for a visit." Huo Tang's clear and pleasant voice sounded, and he had already got off the carriage and headed towards Guanlou Mountain.

    "What was that sound just now?" Outside Yangguan, Eurobazo and the eight monarchs also vaguely heard the sounds of the officers and soldiers of the Hexi Army greeting Huo Tang just now.

    "It seems that they are welcoming the arrival of a certain big shot." The secretary replied with some uncertainty.

    "It's the Qingluan flag, it should be the big oneMr. Yuan, right?  I heard that Anyang Hou Huoguang had returned to the capital of their empire, and now all the military power in Hexi fell into the hands of this woman.  It is a strange country where a woman can command an army!  "The newly arrived Lord Hatra said, pointing to the Qingluan flag that had just been erected on the Yangguan Tower.

    With the deepening of the war, Dahan and An'an have a deeper understanding of their respective opponents, and Huo Tang, the Lord of the Courtyard, is no longer a secret in the eyes of An'an's senior officials.

    "Don't underestimate the enemy. Anyang Hou Huoguang is not an easy person. He let this woman take charge of the Hexi Army, not just because the Lord of the Courtyard is his favorite sister. Remember to respect your opponent, even if it's just a woman!" Eurobazuo  There was no sign of contempt because Huo Tang was a woman, and her expression was even more solemn.

    "We will keep your motto in mind, dear Prime Minister!" The Parthian nobles bowed their heads.

    "Thenlet's start the attack! This battle requires breaking through two lines of defense." Eurobazo ignored the people around him. He stared at the Yangguan Tower and said seriously. In his eyes, there were people on the Guan Tower.  A figure, like a touch of light green vitality, appeared in this desolate and desolate world.

    He felt that there seemed to be a pair of wise eyes looking at him!
