"My lord, a group of cavalry from the Ming army has left the city and is coming towards us!"

"Which direction?" Sazihar glanced at the little prince who was sitting firmly on the mountain, and walked out of the tent.

"Coming from the left wing, we are gradually making a detour to the rear!"

Sazihar squinted his eyes for a while, and ordered: "You go and inform Hanu, let him go to intercept, and don't let the Ming army see our falsehood."

"Yes!" The man took the order and ran outside quickly. On the battlefield of attacking the city wall of Lingzhou, he saw the bearded general rushing to kill like venting his anger.

"Master Hanu, the cavalry of the Ming army have left the city, and Lord Sazihar asked you to stop them!"

"Ming army?" Hanu grinned a few times, and said loudly: "It's just in time, brothers, follow me to cut off their heads!" After speaking, he turned his horse's head and galloped away in the direction pointed by the spies.

As they got closer, the three thousand Qingqi led by Xu Xingfeng had nowhere to hide on the flat grass outside the city.Hanu quickly locked onto Xu Xingfeng, who was wrapped in fiery red fox fur and was running at the front.

I saw him dressed fatly, wrapped in a fox fur cloak, the corners were tied up with cloth strips, and holding a steel knife without a sheath.The moment he met Hanu's gaze, Xu Xingfeng's fair face suddenly ignited a raging fighting spirit.

"Kill!!" Xu Xingfeng greeted him from the front, with a dexterity that didn't match the chubby costume, two saber lights went straight to Hanu's eyes and throat with his backhand!

Startled, Hanu hurriedly raised his arms to resist.Jin Ge intersected, only to hear "clang! clang!" Two sounds suddenly exploded in front of him, and Hanu also showed a dignified look on his face, and roared behind him!

Xu Xingfeng didn't understand what he said, but when he saw the group of Mongols go straight around the place where the two were fighting and pounce on the cavalry behind him, Xu Xingfeng also turned his head and said loudly: "Leave him to me, you carry out the order! "

The end of the words was submerged in the sound of knives and halberds, and the Ming army resisted the Mongol attack without showing any panic.

The child was caught on the horse. At first, he only felt that the man sitting behind him was not running forward, but stopped and walked around. He was thinking that the soldier was afraid. I found that I was brought to the front from behind thousands of people without knowing it.

The ferocious Mongol roared in an incomprehensible language, and the blade slashed straight at him!The child screamed and struggled to escape, but was firmly bound by a strong arm behind the horse.

"Don't move!!"

The roar of the person behind him almost shattered the child's eardrums, but he didn't have time to pay attention at the moment.Because the damned soldier riding the horse suddenly leaned over to speed up at this moment!

The child's face was pressed heavily into the horse's mane. Before he could catch his breath, he felt a sudden burst of force coming from behind. The muffled sound was inconspicuous, but the water droplets that fell on the top of the hair suddenly seemed to be falling on the ground. into his heart.

The pressure behind him suddenly loosened, but the child still dared not raise his head, let alone touch the drop of "water" that fell on the top of his head to see if it was what he thought.All he could do was to lower his head and lie motionless on the horse's neck.

After an unknown amount of time, when he felt that the movements of the people behind him gradually became less, he finally mustered up the courage to pull his face out from the tangled mane.I saw that the three thousand Qingqi had already stretched the battle line to a few hundred meters long outside the Tatar's rear camp. When the deputy captain a hundred meters away waved the flag to signal, the thin wall of men and horses quickly moved towards the center. Gather.

The child looked at Xu Xingfeng, who was instantly exposed because the cavalry shrank towards the middle, and who was fighting with Hanu, and asked in puzzlement, "What are you going to do, don't you care about the Captain?"

"This is the order of the captain!" The person behind him roared, and while walking through the gap between the two horses, he cut off the attacking Mongols with one blow.

The horse was bumping, and the scenery in front of the child was constantly rotating and changing. Soon, he saw the thick city wall when he came.

"Lord Lieutenant ordered you to withdraw—" the child asked halfway, and the familiar arm pushed him into the mane again.

This time, after the violent shaking, the child quickly raised his head, shook it vigorously, and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Can you stop using such force suddenly every time!"

He used his hand to push the soldier's arm that was imprisoning him, but unexpectedly pushed it away easily.The child was taken aback for a moment, then immediately turned his head away.This action made his face sting, and the blood-red arrow pointed straight in front of his eyes. There was a trace of blood on his cheek, but more, it was the blood gushing from the throat of the soldier behind him... …

On the city wall, two soldiers holding round shields blocked a low gap. Tang Ziwei stood a little behind and looked at the distant battlefield from the gap.

"General, the carrier pigeon you want." A soldier walked quickly behind Tang Ziwei carrying two wooden cages.

Tang Ziwei put his hands into his sleeves, stroked the edge of the letter with his fingertips, and said, "Put one out."

"Yes." Although the pawn didn't understand what he meant, he obeyed the order instinctively.Reaching into the cage to catch the pigeon, and throwing it into the sky, the whiteness flew towards the higher sky in the southeast.

Tang Ziwei followed the pigeon with his eyes, but within a few seconds, he saw a gray-brown shadow flying out of the Tatar camp like a sharp sword!It went straight to the white ball, intercepted it in mid-air, and hovered a few times in the air with its toes high and high, before turning into a black line and flying back to the camp just like when it came.

"It's an eagle!" The soldier's eyes widened, and he said happily, "It's a good thing the general didn't tie up the letter just now, otherwise he would have been intercepted by the tartars."

Tang Ziwei let go of the secret letter in his sleeve with his fingers, waved his hand at him to signal to retreat, and then said to the soldiers beside him: "Let the cavalry come back, the Tartars will not pay attention to our temptation, and will not use all their strength Annihilate our cavalry, it seems that the little prince is no longer the one who decides."

Tang Ziwei's order was quickly conveyed, and the crowd fighting outside the city gradually separated like a cocoon.

Judging from the city wall, the withdrawal process of the Ming army was not difficult. Although the opponent was pursued by a small group of troops, the large army gradually retreated.On a small piece of ground vacated in the middle of the battlefield, a flaming figure was fighting with the opponent so hard that the surrounding Mongols did not dare to step forward to intervene, but gradually surrounded the two of them.

Tang Ziwei frowned, turned around and strode down the city wall.A group of guards behind him hurriedly followed and walked towards the side door together with him.

"General!"

"Meet the General!"

A group of cavalry who had just returned from outside the city saw that Tang Ziwei had come to greet him in person, and dismounted to pay their respects.After a long time, I didn't hear Tang Ziwei's reply, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Tang Zi's scorching gaze slowly swept across their faces, but he didn't see Xu Xingfeng's figure. He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why did you abandon the general and return?"

Everyone's breathing was stagnant, and they all lowered their heads and clenched their fists.Gao Sheng walked out from the back of the team, and said with some difficulty: "It's an order from Captain Xu."

"Nonsense! He wants to be a hero, so why don't you just let him die?!"

The soldiers bowed their heads in silence.

They were soldiers brought out by Xu Xingfeng, and they felt uncomfortable in carrying out this order.But Xu Xingfeng and Tang Ziwei were both captains and generals, and they couldn't defy either side.

Tang Ziwei also understood this truth, so he took a deep breath to subdue the anger in his heart, and said, "This is the end, I just want to ask you one thing."

"The little prince's army and its reinforcements have a total of 11 soldiers and horses. They adapt to the cold weather and are all brave and good at fighting. But our 10 horses, excluding the necessary defenders and frostbitten people, are only [-]. In this way, we To take the initiative to attack and confront them in a fair and honest manner, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" Xu Xingfeng's soldiers raised their heads and shouted loudly.Their voices caused the defenders on the city wall to look sideways, and the soldiers who had previously received the transfer order gradually gathered and lined up silently at the side door.

Tang Ziwei stood up straight, his eyes took a panoramic view of the city.He looked at the soldiers and the rows of houses and streets in the distance, and suddenly said softly: "But I'm afraid."

Before the surprised expressions appeared on the faces of the soldiers, he continued, "I'm afraid of going to war with the little prince, I'm afraid of being injured, I'm afraid that there will be fewer and fewer brothers standing here! But we have no choice."

"We have no choice." Tang Ziwei's gaze paused on a group of local soldiers not far away, "Because what I'm more afraid of is that the city wall will be breached by the Tatar tribe, and the houses in the city will be rushed by them." The people of Ming Dynasty and our relatives were bullied by them, and their food was taken away by them, so they could not survive this winter! So we can only fight! Go get our generals back, and drive these barbaric Tatar tribes back On their grassland!"

Tang Ziwei looked at those soldiers and asked loudly, "Tell me now, are you still afraid?!"

"Not afraid! Not afraid!"

"Take back our generals! Drive the Tartars back to their steppes!"

The soldiers who were ignited to fight showed a firm look in their eyes, each of them clenched the weapons in their hands and roared loudly!

This sound is like a drum, beating in everyone's heart one after another, making the blood surge wildly.

The child who had been in a trance since he came back seemed to suddenly wake up. His face and body were still stained with blood that had frozen into hard lumps, but he puffed out his chest in the shock and shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid!"

Tang Ziwei showed a rare wild smile on his face, put on a battle robe handed over by the soldiers around him, walked into the cavalry, and stood still in front of the child.

The child looked up at him and said, "I want to be a soldier too!"

This sentence is exactly the same as what he said to Tang Ziwei on the city wall, but this time it is no longer the angry dissatisfaction.He seemed to have grown up suddenly after this trip, and the unyielding and strong eyes on his immature face made Tang Ziwei laugh.

At this time, Tang Ziwei did not let him join the soldiers as lightly as on the city wall. Instead, he raised his hand and touched his head, smiling, "You are just getting started, and it is 800 years too early to go to the battlefield!"

As soon as these words fell, as the child disapproved and slapped Tang Ziwei's hand away, the soldiers around him also let out bursts of good-natured laughter. "Little boy, you'd better go home and wait for our good news!"

Tang Ziwei also smiled, until the soldiers were almost assembled, he got on his horse and walked to the front of the team to stand with the advance cavalry.

Seeing the city gate gradually rising in front of his eyes, Tang Ziwei's expression gradually became dignified.Two of his personal soldiers were left in the city, and now there is only one person following him.At this time, Zhang Yong and Tang Ziwei, the supervising army, were also standing in the forefront. They looked at each other, looked at the enemy outside the city, and at the same time gave a low shout, and rushed out like the wind!
