end song

Lighted tents and campfires lighted the night.

A dragon scorpion appeared on the lookout tube, and Shi Gang said to himself, "Li Xia is really here?"

He smiled, looked at Wang Chen's banner ahead, and finally understood why Wang Chen had to mobilize troops in such a hurry, and ran for dozens of miles to attack the camp overnight.

"This time, it's really right to let the Koreans take part in the prison."

In fact, Shi Bang was opposed to tonight's battle. He believed that Li Xia's whereabouts should be confirmed first, and then sent back to report, and then sent more soldiers to surround him.

The reason is that he and Wang Qi together only have more than 3000 people, and although the Tang army has only a few hundred, it may not be impossible to win with less or escape.Moreover, it is not clear whether the camp in the back is a captive or a surrendered army.

But Wang Chen insisted on such a sudden attack, saying that the opportunity must not be missed, and the time will never come again.

But Shi Gang knew that the reason why he was so eager to do meritorious service was because he was anxious to show himself in front of His Majesty.

This matter also involved an old incident. When Wang Qi was taken hostage in his early years, he was taken care of by Hong Fuyuan, a Korean who had surrendered to Mongolia earlier. Later, the two turned against each other because of the interests of managing the descendants. At that time, Wang Qi had married a woman from the Jin family. , then complained to Meng Ge and killed Hong Fuyuan.

As a result, a few years ago, Hong Fuyuan's second son, Hong Junqi, was highly regarded by Kublai Khan because of his bravery and skill in fighting. Kublai Khan even often called him by Hong Junqi's nickname, which shows his closeness.

Hong Junqi not only overturned the case for his father, but also wore a gold tiger amulet, and served as the leader of the military and civilian affairs in Koryo. He often spoke ill of Wang Chen.

Of course Wang Chen was also anxious, he had lost a big match with Tachaer before, if he didn't make a great contribution this time, maybe one day he would really be framed by Hong Junqi.

This kind of urgency is reflected in the battlefield. After running a long distance, soldiers are urged by the generals to kill the enemy camp before they even have time to rest.

"That's Li Xia's banner! Kill Li Xia, the hereditary duke!" "Kill!"

The horseshoes raised the snow, making a slight rustling sound, and the crossbow arrows in front shot forward, shooting the crazy Yuan soldiers to the ground one by one.

But some people shouted in surprise: "Tang Jun doesn't have thunderbolt cannons! Let's kill them!"

"Uh"

In fact, in this kind of weather, firearms and crossbows are not easy to use. When the Yuan army rushed to the vicinity, the Tang army used more bridle ropes, repelling antlers, and spears to cause damage.

Not long after the battle started, the ground was already covered with corpses.

"Young General Shi! You can either send your troops into battle, or release the captives to fight the enemy with us!" Wang Yi himself rode his horse and rushed to Shi Bang's side, shouting.

Because he was afraid that ordinary military orders would not be able to mobilize this princely son.

Shi Gang was still observing the situation on the battlefield with his binoculars. He was surprised by the heavy casualties. He put down the binoculars and said, "Got it. There are also Tang troops stationed in the north. I will defeat them and release the prisoners."

~~
In the big tent, Uncle Shuzhen and Torica were still writing the list of generals in their army.The sweat on Shu Zhenbo's forehead dripped onto the paper.

He didn't know what was going on outside, and the only basis for his judgment was Li Xia's expression.However, Li Xia's face was like ice and snow.

When the killing cry got closer, he finally realized that he had no choice, either hesitant to be killed by Li Xia, or to express his loyalty to Li Xia.

And if this statement is not sincere, it will be seen through by the terrifying man in front of him. Because a general of the Tang army walked into the tent, the knife in his hand was not put back into the sheath, and it was still dripping blood.

The key point is that the general of the Tang Army stood behind the two Mongolian nobles without saying a word, which made people feel a chill behind him.

"Your Majesty! Tolica is willing to fight for His Majesty!"

Toricha suddenly knelt on the ground, because he was afraid that Li Xia would not believe his sincerity, he immediately raised his head again, looked into Li Xia's eyes and said, "If your majesty doesn't believe me, you don't need to issue weapons, I will bring the warriors Let's defeat the enemy."

Li Xia raised his hand, as if signaling the general of the Tang army behind Tuo Licha to put down his knife, and then said: "Go.

Relieved, Tuo Licha hurriedly got up and bowed, glanced at Uncle Shu, and exited the big tent.

Two soldiers of the Tang army followed and followed Tuo Licha.

Li Xia smiled, looked at Uncle Shu who was still sitting there writing the list of lieutenant generals, and said, "No need to write, you are smarter than Torica, you have more thoughts."

"Your Majesty, I have no thoughts, I..."

"Choosing a monarch to follow and betting the fate of the entire tribe requires caution, I understand." Li Xia said: "I have shown what I should show in my life from prisoner to emperor. The time to choose has come, so be more cautious A decision has to be made.”

Uncle Shu Zhen took a deep breath and asked a question, "Your Majesty has never forced us before. Now, at such a dangerous time, Your Majesty is forcing me. You are not afraid to kill me. Has my army turned against me?"

"Not afraid."

Li Xia only had this simple answer.

Shu Zhenbo's heart was even more suspended, he is a rational person, and he really hates betting like this. "Okay, I will fight for His Majesty"

Uncle Shu got out of the big tent, before he had time to take a closer look at the situation outside, two soldiers of the Tang Army said to him: "Marshal, please go quickly to appease your soldiers and horses, this way."

~~
In the big tent, Li Xia breathed a long sigh of relief.

He doesn't care about the war, and spends his time here with Uncle Shu and Torica. It's not for any list or promise.

He just wants to show them that he has confidence in the most dangerous time, to scare them, to scare them, to drive into his heart the idea that he is powerful.

Then, appease the [-] newly attached soldiers and horses.This is the most critical.

Five hundred elite soldiers may not be incapable of defeating more than three thousand enemies who came from afar.And once the [-] army is in chaos, it will be a real catastrophe for tonight.

Uncle Shuzhen just went out, and the general of the Tang army who was silent just now rushed to Li Xia and said, "Please move your majesty, the Yuan army is coming."

"Bring a war horse."

"Your Majesty, your injury."
"I said, bring a war horse." "Here!"

Lifting the curtain and leaving the tent, Li Xia recruited a soldier and said, "Come and shout, just say." "Here."

Soon, the soldier got on his horse and ran across the camp. "Report! Our army has received Marshal Li and is returning to the division!"

Tang Jun cheered and shouted one after another.

Even the wounded in each tent have rushed out. "Kill the enemy! The army will turn back immediately!"

~~ "What did they say?"

"It is said that the army will come back tonight. Marshal, you know that our main force and Ketun's army are not far away." Shu Zhenbo suddenly realized, thinking that it is no wonder Li Xia was so calm and calm tonight, it turned out to be the case.

He finally strengthened his confidence and hurried towards his army.

During this process, the killing cries in front of them became louder and more chaotic.

"Marshal! Our soldiers and horses have come to meet us, only a few Tang troops are still intercepting from the north, we"

A centurion ran up and shouted to Uncle Shuzhen in Mongolian, but he didn't notice that there were two Tang soldiers behind Uncle Shuzhen.

"Snapped!"

Immediately, Shu Zhenbo slapped him and cursed: "We are the Tang army now! Why don't we go to defend the camp?!" "Marshal, how could we be the Tang army?"

The centurion covered his face and still shook his head.Suddenly there was a burst of yelling in the distance. "marshal!"

Some people shouted before they could get close: "There is chaos in the camp in the west, a group of people killed Tuo Licha! They said they would take over the Yuan army and kill the Tang army!"

Shu Zhenbo was taken aback.

He couldn't believe that Torica died so easily.

So, he glanced at the soldiers who were not wearing armor but only wrapped in dirty felt clothes not far away, and thought to himself, are these people so difficult to control?
So what to do?next moment. "puff."

A soldier of the Tang army behind him had already stepped forward, desperately stabbing the centurion who was still saying "How could we be the Tang army" to the ground.

Blood spilled.

Someone in the distance shouted in Mongolian: "Tang Jun wants to kill us!"

In the chaos, Shu Zhenbo only heard another Tang soldier behind him say: "Marshal, you have already made your choice." "Exiute! Who killed Torica?! Kill them for me."

~~
A battle that should have been settled quickly has gradually fallen into a stalemate.

Wang Chen glanced to the north, and felt that there was some movement there, and it seemed to have gradually calmed down.

"Boss, General Shi sent someone to report that the captives the deserters mentioned were not captives, but surrendered to the Tang army! If the boss can't kill Li Xia, it's better to withdraw the army, and then send someone to contact the surrendered troops."

Wang Chen was taken aback.

In fact, he was already very close to Li Xia.

Thinking about it again, in fact, the [-] surrendered troops can't help Li Xia much. As long as they can kill Li Xia first, they will immediately turn back.

There was no reason to retreat, so he quickly ordered to attack with all his strength. "Father! Son, go and kill Li Xia!"

Seeing this situation, Wang Xi, the second son of Wang Chen, stepped forward to ask for Ying, and without waiting for Wang Chen's consent, he led a group of people to kill the dragon flag.

~~
Under the dragon banner.Li Xia had already noticed Wang Xi rushing over.

Because Wang Xi's beautiful armor was shining against the firelight. "Follow me to outflank the past."

The horses quickly galloped around the two tents and disappeared into the darkness of the camp.

Wang Xi couldn't help squinting his eyes, looking for the dozens of cavalry who were still supervising the battle under the dragon banner just now.At the same time, he continued to run towards the dragon banner, thinking that it would be better to cut it down first.

Suddenly, there was a rustling sound. "right!"

Wang Xi yelled and stopped the galloping horse.

A long lance had been stabbed in front of him, and hit his armor hard, knocking him to the ground. "Xiba."

Wang Xi turned over and felt severe pain all over his body.

If it weren't for his strong armor, he might have died at this time. "Protect Lord Hou!"

The surrounding Yuan troops shouted one after another, and this "Hou Ye" made the soldiers of the Tang army jump.

Wang Xi's mother came from the Jin family, so he regarded himself as a nobleman of the Yuan Dynasty, but the Kingdom of Koryo granted him the title of Marquis of Gwanghwa.Thinking about it again, Goryeo is also a vassal state of Dayuan, so the Marquis of Guanghua is also the Marquis of Dayuan.

It's okay as usual.

On the battlefield, this title caught Li Xia's attention.

Li Xia reined in his horse and stabbed at Wang Xi with another lance, piercing through a Yuan army with a "poof".Blood splashed on Wang Xi's face, and he was not afraid at this moment, he picked up the big knife on the ground and slashed at Li Xia. "when!"

Li Xia directly raised the long spear and smashed it, smashing the big knife to the ground.

Wang Xi's jaw was in severe pain, he looked down and saw that it was covered with blood, he couldn't help being horrified, and shouted: "Father, save me!" Turning over again, he got up and fled.

With a cold face, Li Xia chased after him.

If you really want to talk about it, Li Xia's situation is actually even worse at this time. Together with his big tent, he is surrounded by the enemy.

Especially since his wounds were open again.

Since he proclaimed himself emperor, he has rarely encountered such a dangerous situation.However, Li Xia still felt at ease.
He has been a champion and has been sought after, but he understands that other people's pursuit can turn into abuse in a blink of an eye.

The same goes for power. When things go smoothly, there are thousands of troops and horses around to protect them, but even the Ninth Five-Year Supreme will have a person who is completely helpless and can be strangled to death by a court lady or drowned by a eunuch.

He was attacked today, and his pregnant concubine was in the tent behind him.To protect them, you still have to be strong yourself in the end.

"Okay." Li Xia murmured to himself, "It's good to fight in front of Zhen, who is stronger in heart and stronger in physique."

"Ah, ah!

"Wang Xi turned his head and shouted: "Father, save me!" "Boom!"

The big gun hit Wang Xi's helmet directly, his neck was tilted, blood flowed from his forehead, and he fell limply to the ground. "My son!"

Wang Yi was running towards this side, seeing this situation, his canthus could not help but tear up.Behind him, there are still many Yuan troops chasing after him.

"Protection Chief!"

Li Xia reined in the reins, panting, and gradually felt happy as he watched Wang Chen getting closer.Because I haven't seen such an arrogant person for a long time.

Over the years, frightened by Li Xia's reputation, no general dared to confront him for a long time.This one in front of him is probably a fierce general, right?
