Impeachment will make me stronger, and I will be invincible on the road to death.

Chapter 249 I would rather die than surrender!

"In your hometown, there must be brothers, sisters and parents waiting for you to return home. I also want to take you back home safely, but..."

"What will they do if we escape?"

Wang Xiaojie couldn't bear to continue talking.

The others looked at each other, feeling as if a thousand pounds had fallen in their hearts.

"General, let's stay!"

"The Tubo barbarians want to slaughter my people of the Tang Dynasty, and we will never agree!"

"Fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death!"

5 people shouted in unison, raising their swords and spears and stabbing into the sky.

Wang Xiaojie's eyes were red, and he turned his head and couldn't bear to look anymore.

All of these 5 people chose to stay and buy time for dozens of families to escape. None of them chose to give in!
"You are all good men of my Tang Dynasty!"

Wang Xiaojie wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, clenched his spear and roared: "Fight!"

……

Lun Qinling sat on the horse and listened to the spies who came to report about Wang Xiaojie's situation.

"General, Wang Xiaojie has not chosen to continue escaping. They seem to be planning to fight us to the death!"

Lun Qinling smiled.

"Wang Xiaojie is crazy. I killed 5 people, and now you plan to give all the remaining 5 people to me for free?"

The people around him didn't dare to speak out, and they didn't know what Wang Xiaojie was thinking.

Apparently only 5 people had been killed, but they didn't rush to escape. Instead, they stayed where they were, waiting for the Tibetan army of 20 to arrive.

This is clearly seeking death!

How could Empress Wu issue such a fatuous order?

But if Empress Wu hadn't ordered Wang Xiaojie to fight to the death, wouldn't that mean that Wang Xiaojie had resisted?
Either way, it's death. Wang Xiaojie would rather die with 5 people than die in the market after returning?
"Keep going! I want to see what is in Wang Xiaojie's gourd!"

Lun Qinling snorted coldly and ordered the army to move forward!

the other side.

While Wang Xiaojie ordered the army to fight on the spot, he also sent people on horseback to notify the villagers to leave as soon as possible.

When the villagers heard that Tibet's 20-strong army would arrive here in two hours, they immediately panicked and began to flee for their lives with their families.

But they did not have enough oxcarts and horse-drawn carriages to carry people. If they walked on foot, they would never be able to reach the nearest city before dark.

Fortunately, Wang Xiaojie had thought carefully and had already arranged for 500 people to escort hundreds of villagers.

With the help of the army soldiers, the villagers quickly packed their luggage, took their families and left here, heading for the distance.

The soldiers who chose to stay here arranged their positions intensively. They used everything they could use to build this place into a small defensive position.

Wang Xiaojie stood on a high place and looked at the plain in the distance.

The Tibetan army drew a straight line and pressed over from the horizon. Seeing that there was only less than a hundred miles away from their position.

The dim sun was hanging in the sky, and it was almost dark.

"The fight will be harder when it gets dark."

It is a very difficult task for soldiers to fight without seeing anything!

Wang Xiaojie didn't think these 5 people could defeat Tibet's 20 elite soldiers, but they had no way back!

"Are you ready?"

Zhang Shun came over and stood side by side with Wang Xiaojie.

"You can't kill someone without a nod, what are you afraid of?"

Wang Xiaojie smiled heartily.

"Just don't be afraid. We will be brothers for life. We will live and die together. How happy!" Zhang Shun looked up to the sky and laughed.

The two of them watched the Tibetan army getting closer and closer until they heard the thunderous sound of horse hooves.

"All soldiers of the army! Prepare for battle!"

Wang Xiaojie took the lead and rushed towards the Tubo army. The spear in his hand was like a swimming dragon, freely shuttled among the enemy troops, cutting off heads one after another.

It wasn't until the spear was curled that he had the slightest intention of giving up.

"General Wang, behind!"

I don't know who screamed, but Wang Xiaojie was too late to dodge. He had been fighting for an hour, and his physical strength had reached its limit.

There are fewer and fewer Tang soldiers around, replaced by countless Tubo soldiers!
Wang Xiaojie looked down and saw a spear protruding from his chest.

When Lun Qinling raised his arms, Wang Xiaojie fell to the ground like a fallen bird. As he struggled around, countless swords came from all directions.

Lun Qinling looked at Wang Xiaojie struggling in vain.

"I thought you were capable, but it turns out that you are leading 5 people to die! Even if you can kill 1 people in Tibet, so what?"

"Wang Xiaojie, you have been a soldier all your life, why do you become confused when you get older?"

Lun Qinling sneered and raised his hand to kill Wang Xiaojie.

"General Wang!"

Zhang Shun rushed out from nowhere, galloped over on horseback, grabbed Wang Xiaojie's arm and pulled him up from the ground.

The two of them rode a horse together and ran towards the distance.

"Come up!"

After Lun Qinling gave an order, the Tubo soldiers immediately caught up with Zhang Shun and forced the two men back to the edge of the cliff.

"General Wang, for the sake of your blood, I will give you a choice. If you are willing to surrender to Tubo today, I will spare your life!"

Lun Qinling rode his horse and leisurely blocked Wang Xiaojie's last retreat.

Zhang Shun stretched out his arms and stood in front of Wang Xiaojie.

"Don't even think about it! We would rather die than surrender to Tubo!"

"Why are you so hasty to refuse? General Wang is not from the Tang Dynasty. Didn't he also surrender to the Tang Dynasty? Why not surrender to Tibet now?"

Lun Qinling rode his horse in circles twice and said doubtfully.

Wang Xiaojie spit out the blood from his mouth, stared at Lun Qinling fiercely, and said: "You are dreaming, I will never surrender to you!"

For the sake of the people of the Tang Dynasty, he chose to stay here to fight against Lun Qinling.

How could one choose to surrender before death?
"Okay, since General Wang wants to die, then I will grant it to you."

Lun Qinling took a few steps back on horseback, and the soldiers raised their spears and rushed towards the scarred Zhang Shun and Wang Xiaojie.

"I'm so happy to be your brother!"

Zhang Shun rode on horseback to fight. Wang Xiaojie sat behind him and raised his already curled spear to fight the Tibetan soldiers.

In less than a cup of tea, the two of them were defeated.

Zhang Shun and Wang Xiaojie were suppressed by others, and they both knelt in front of Lun Qinling.

"Tsk, tsk, General Wang, you might as well choose to surrender directly. That way you can save some dignity for yourself."

Lun Qinling watched with satisfaction as Wang Xiaojie knelt in front of him.

In the past, the only person who could make Wang Xiaojie kneel down was Empress Wu. Now that Lun Qinling was enjoying the same treatment, he was naturally very satisfied.

"Bah, Tubo barbarian!"

Wang Xiaojie spat and said coldly: "I will never surrender even if I die!"

After saying that, he suddenly pushed away the soldiers pressing him, got up and ran towards the cliff.

Before anyone else could catch him, Wang Xiaojie jumped down decisively.
