Zhao Ziliang set out from the Holy Mountain Castle with 500 cavalry guards, and arrived in Damascus in a few days.
He decided to rest in Damascus for a day.
After staying at the palace in Damascus that day, Zhao Ziliang thought of Li Sheng, who had been dead for three years, and felt a heartbeat.
Time is quite sad.
Herodrut came from behind and put a cloak on him.
He noticed that he was in a bad mood and asked, "What's the matter?
I see why you are a little unhappy."
Zhao Ziliang turned to look at Herodrut and shook his head: "Nothing, I just thought of Li Liangqi.
You may not be familiar with him.
Before you were born, he had already followed me on the battlefield and made countless military exploits in his life.
He is one of the most famous generals in the world."
Herodrut blinked and asked: "Is Li Liangqi General Li Sheng?
I have heard of him.
When I arrived in Xinjing, General Li Sheng fell ill and died.
His Majesty the King summoned a grand ceremony in his honor.
I was lucky enough to see his body during the funeral.
He was a very mighty old general."
"Oh, that's it."
Zhao Ziliang nodded, and suddenly remembered that Li Sheng had a son who was very talented.
He immediately turned to look at the servant next to him and ordered: "Go and call the eldest prince."
"Yes, Your Majesty" Zhao Ang rushed over quickly.
He was wearing a shiny armor and looked quite strong and heroic.
He walked up to Zhao Ziliang and clasped his fists, bowed his head and said, "Grandson, meet grandpa."
"Excuse me."
Zhao Ziliang raised his hand and asked: "Li Liangqi has a son named Li Su.
He is kind, filial, heroic, and quite powerful.
I heard that he has a good relationship with you.
Do you know where he is now?"
"?"
Zhao Ang cupped his fists and said: "Grandpa, Li Su and he have built a house next to the tomb of old General Li Sheng to observe mourning.
According to time, it has been more than three years.
He should be at home now."
"Oh" Zhao Ziliang thought for a while and told Zhao Ang: "Immediately send someone to convey the order to Li Su and ask him to come to the lonely tent to listen to it."
Zhao Ang agreed: "Promise" Li Sheng gave birth to a total of fifteen sons and two daughters, five of whom died young, and the other ten sons were either in the army or politics.
Among them, Li Xian and Li Su were the most kind, filial, intelligent, and heroic.
Li Su is worthy of his name, and he is the founding father of the Western Qin Kingdom.
Not all second-generation officials are playboys and spendthrifts.
Brothers Li Su and Li Xian are very promising young talents in the country.
In this era, although the officials of the Western Qin State made great efforts to popularize knowledge and education, and a large number of talents emerged from the civilian class, as the second generation of officials, they had natural advantages, and they were specially trained by their families. , pouring a lot of resources into it, their talents are much higher than those of the children of the common class.
On August 24, Zhao Ziliang and his party arrived at the Syrian Pass to join the 4th, 5th, and 7th Army Corps.
Alexander Tower, the camp of the Western Qin Army.
The camp was full of banners and tents, stretching for more than ten miles, and the sounds of war horses neighing and the roars of drills kept coming.
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Zhao Ziliang was sitting on the commander's seat wearing heavy armor.
There were civilians and generals standing on both sides.
The large tent was surrounded by soldiers with swords and armor, which was very strict.

Zhao Ziliang turned his head and looked at the civil servants and generals on the left and right sides, and said: "Although the standing army is an elite that has been carefully trained, it has not fought in many years, and I don't know if it can still be used."
The commander of the Fourth Army Corps, Wen Zhengcheng, stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the Second Army Corps will fight to the end for Western Qin and for Your Majesty."
Brother Shu Jing, the commander of the Fifth Army Corps, also stood up and clasped his fists and said: "The Fifth Army Corps is an army that has always had outstanding records.
After years of hard training, all the soldiers must be loyal to the country.
There is a saying that it is said to raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a while.
Now it is It is time for Your Majesty to use the Fifth Army.
I and all the soldiers of the Fifth Army will move forward and never take a step back."
Su Guanglie, the commander of the Seventh Army, did not make any movement.
He stood motionless with his eyes half closed, as if he did not hear the voices of Wen Zhengcheng and Ge Shu Jingye expressing their determination.
Among Wen Zhengcheng, Geshu Jingye and Su Guanglie, only Geshu Jingye has a profound background.
He is the son of the leader of the barbarian Geshu tribe and the natal nephew of Geshu Luoyan, the wife of retired general Zhao Hu.
Wen Zhengcheng was born as a commoner and had no background in his family.
Even his name was changed after he became a general.
Su Guanglie was a descendant of Su Lie, a famous general in the early Tang Dynasty.
However, the Su family had long since declined and he had no background in Western Qin.
It can be considered a civilian background.
Zhao Ziliang looked at Su Guanglie and asked, "General Su, don't you have anything to say?"
Su Guanglie then opened his eyes, stood up, clasped his fists and lowered his head, saying: "Your Majesty, I have nothing to say.
You will know if it is a mule or a horse, and it is useless to say it now no matter how impassioned it is."
These words made Wen Zhengcheng and Ge Shu Jingye look ugly.
They stared at Su Guanglie, with fire almost coming out of their eyes.
They were both military generals.
As the saying goes, Wen was not the best, Wu was not the best.
Secondly, Su Guanglie's words clearly mean that the two of them only know how to fight, and it is useless if they really want to fight.
How can they endure this?
Ge Shu Jingye immediately shouted: "Su, what do you mean?"
Su Guanglie said calmly: "It's not interesting.
I am always used to using actions instead of words.
Talk less and do more.
This is my standard of conduct.
I am just warning myself.
No matter how nice the words are, it is useless if they cannot be realized."
Zhao Ziliang raised his hand in time to stop the quarrel among several people: "Okay, the older generation will eventually grow old and die.
This world is still for young people, but whether young people can surpass their ancestors depends on your efforts.
The current conditions of the army are much better than those ten or twenty years ago.
I hope that the performance of each legion will not disappoint me.
Duan Wei, Captain of the Scout Battalion."
A strong man in his late thirties stood up, clasped his fists and lowered his head in agreement: "I'm here."
Zhao Ziliang said: "Back then, your grandfather Duan Xiuzhen was also a scout in the army.
At that time, he was still a little thorn in the side, and he refused to accept anyone.
But this kid has a lot of ruthlessness.
I promoted him in vain.
In fact, It proves that he is indeed a material that can be made for us.
Qin Li has made unparalleled achievements.
As his grandson, I still don't know how much ability you have, or whether you are better than others.

I hope you will perform well in the next battle.
Tell me about the military information you found out."
"Yes" Duan Wei agreed and immediately introduced: "There were originally one hundred enemy troops guarding Sunset Pass, but after the news that our army was going to send troops came out, they increased to three hundred, including one hundred spear and shield soldiers, and one hundred sword shields.
Soldiers, one hundred crossbowmen.
According to the scale of Sunset Pass, it can accommodate one thousand defenders.
However, the generals of the Eastern Roman Empire in Asia Minor were very dissatisfied with Empress Dowager Irina's resumption of icon worship, and the army training was reduced, and defense was also reduced. slack A lot, so they were hesitant after receiving the news that our army was going to send troops to attack the Eastern Roman Empire.
After all, it was not once or twice that the outside world spread the news that we were going to send troops to attack the Eastern Roman Empire.
They were not sure about the accuracy of the news this time, so Only two hundred people were added.
The Sunset Guardsman is named Maladelus, a newly promoted military noble.
It is understood that he made a lot of achievements in the battle with the Bulgars, so he was promoted."
"If it were other passes, three hundred people would be nothing, but at Sunset Light, these three hundred people would really be a force that cannot be underestimated, because in front of Sunset Pass there is the sea on the left and a cliff on the right, and the passage is only less than one foot.
It is wide, and only four people can walk side by side, which means that if you want to attack, you can only attack with a maximum of four people at a time.
No matter how many people there are, they can't attack.
This is an aerial view drawn by our army's scouts based on the buildings of Sunset Pass and the surrounding terrain."
Zhao Ziliang waved his hand and asked Duan Wei to step back, and said: "Okay, General Duan Wei has introduced the situation of Sunset Pass in great detail.
It seems that he has done a lot of homework.
Is there any general who is willing to lead the army now?"
Take Sunset Pass” A young general stood up and clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead troops to attack Sunset Pass."
Zhao Ziliang took a look and smiled: "Oh, it turns out to be General Bai, the grandson of General Bai.
How many people do you want to conquer Sunset Pass in a few days?"
Bai Shihong said: "Your Majesty, I only need five hundred men to capture Sunset Pass in two days."
Zhao Ziliang touched his chin and said: "It only takes five hundred people and only two days to capture Sunset Pass.
General Xiaobai, you have to know that this is the main camp of the Chinese army.
You have to keep your word.
Do you dare to make this decision?"
What should I do if the military order cannot be obtained within two days and Sunset Pass is closed?"
Bai Shihong's mind started to heat up, and he puffed up his chest without even thinking: "Of course, if we can't attack the Sunset Pass within two days, I will raise my head to see His Majesty."
Zhao Ziliang nodded and waved: "Come here, write down the military order and have General Xiaobai sign it."
The military copywriter quickly wrote a military order, and a soldier handed it to Bai Shihong.
Bai Shihong immediately picked up the pen and signed his name.
After the military meeting ended, everyone dispersed.
Bai Xiaode, who had gray hair, grabbed his grandson and angrily shouted: "You little bastard, your grandfather, I have repeatedly warned you not to show off indiscriminately.
What did you do?"
Is the Sunset Pass so easy to fight?
Only four people can attack at a time.
Unless all four of them are peerless warriors, otherwise they will be shot into a hornet's nest before they can climb up the wall.
You, you, you are going to piss me off to death. " Bai Shihong didn't care at all and said: "Grandpa, what are you worried about?
With your grandson's ability, even if I don't need others, I can climb up the wall and kill the Eastern Roman defenders."
Bai Xiaode slapped him in the face, and Bai Shihong dodged it lightly.
He shouted angrily: "Do you really think there are no heroes in this world except you?
Didn't you hear Duan Wei say that Maraderus, the guard of Sunset Gate, was the protector?
The person who was promoted after repeatedly performing meritorious service in the Garr battles must be a man who has experienced hundreds of battles.
You may not be his opponent yet."
Bai Shihong shouted: "I just like to fight with people like this.
If the Eastern Roman Army is all a bunch of soft noodles, what's the point of fighting this battle?
