The sunset in the desert is very beautiful, the remnant sun in the west does not want to fall for a long time, the sunset is infinitely good, but it is also near dusk. Just as the people of this earth city are about to end, the day is coming to an end, and the night is about to cover the earth.

The setting sun shone obliquely on the sand dunes, and in the southwest direction outside the Tucheng, a fast horse galloped in the direction of the Tucheng, and the sand and dust flew all the way, and the man on the horse galloped into the Tucheng. Before the horses could be stopped, the visitor quickly dismounted, and shouted all the way: "Oh no, no!" The man galloped to the highest earthen house in the middle of the city.

"Oh no, General, the Xifan army is rushing towards us, just more than 20 miles southwest of the city, it should have found us, about 560,000 people. The visitor said loudly as he entered the door.

Guo Yuan was discussing something with several white-haired men in the room, and after listening to the words of the visitor, Guo Yuan's brows were furrowed, and his face was instantly extremely cold, and the rest of the people were talking about it, and then they were silent, as if they were waiting for Guo Yuan to speak.

Guo Yuan stood up, and said after a while: "What should come will always come, eighteen years, we have survived for so long, today is the time for a decisive battle with the enemy." ”

"Flying Cavalry, prepare to fight with me!" the words blurted out loudly from Guo Yuan's mouth.

Everyone present was stunned at first, and then these white-haired soldiers burst into tears, and they all said in unison: "Here!"

Eighteen years, they are more called by the enemy as the beggar army, the flying cavalry army, almost eighteen years have not been like this, but it is still deep in their hearts.

The young man hurriedly ran into the room and gasped: "Uncle Guo, Uncle Guo, outside, outside, outside the city, there are many enemy troops, more than ever, the black pressure is overwhelming, and you can't see the edge." ”

Guo Yuan looked at the young man, his eyes showed a trace of pity and helplessness, and he touched the young man's head with a smile and said, "Xiaoguang, are you afraid!"

The young man swallowed his saliva and said firmly: "Don't be afraid, with Uncle Guo here, I'm not afraid at all!"

Looking at the young man's hesitant and determined expression, which caused everyone to laugh, the young man was puzzled, he used to go out to fight and only saw them laugh after a big victory, but now there is a black and oppressive enemy army outside, they can still laugh, and the young man seems to be more and more unable to understand them.

On the high ground of the city, Guo Yuan and his entourage looked at the Xifan army outside the city; from a distance, they saw a black army in the southwest, not to mention five or six hundred thousand, there was a kind of black cloud pressing the city, as if they wanted to eat this earthen city, and in the army, there was one person who made Guo Yuan feel a sense of déjà vu.

Guo Yuan sneered: "It's been a long time since I've seen such a formation, and it's really worthy of us to send such a huge army to destroy our remnants and weak generals." Guo Yuan looked around and smiled, and everyone laughed together.

At this time, in the Xifan army array, a sword flew out and hung in the air, Guo Yuan recognized that this person was the Xifan sword saint Xi Boda eighteen years ago.

The young man on the side was shocked by this person standing in the air, and he had also heard Guo Yuan and others say that there are many strange people and strange things in the world, and cultivators who have cultivated the Tao often surpass the power of ordinary people and have the ability to go to heaven and earth. Today I finally saw it, how good it would be if I had such a skill one day, alas, the young man thought again, maybe this was the last time he saw it! Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help but fall from surprise to a little sad.

Xi Bo replied to look at this group of white-haired, ragged soldiers, and couldn't help but admire them in his heart, in his eyes, these people were indeed worthy of his respect.

"Guo Yuan, it's been eighteen years, if I hadn't been in a hurry to pursue Helan Jingde, you wouldn't have escaped death, but I didn't expect me to be careless for a while, leaving the tiger in trouble, and letting you harass the peace of my rear here, and blame me, but today, everything will be over. If you surrender to me, high-ranking officials will not be able to do it, and you will only have a different body and head if you are obsessed," Xi Bo replied confidently.

Guo Yuan shouted loudly: "Xifan dog thief, deceive the people of Anxi, occupy my land in Anxi, and say so calmly, you and I are incompatible; ”

Xi Bo replied: "The mantis arm is a car, and you don't want to do it! You have to think about it, I respect you as a hero, don't do this wilderness loess." ”

"Even if you can destroy our flesh, it is difficult to wipe out our will, even if you die, why say more, come on!" Guo Yuan's eyes were full of determination.

Seeing that Guo Yuan's heart was firm, Xi Bo replied that he was full of displeasure, so he turned back. The order was laid, and the army began to charge and siege the city.

When he saw Guo Yuan, who was already white-haired, for the first time, he knew that this man from Middle-earth would not surrender him, but he still wanted to try, so he gave up. Maybe dying on the battlefield is the respect for him, such a soldier is really a pity, if he was born in Xifan, he will definitely entrust him with a heavy responsibility, but it is a pity that heroes cherish heroes, and the mistake is that each is his master. Over the years, he has led the troops and seen many powerful opponents, Guo Yuan is not the most powerful in cultivation, but his willpower is rarely matched.

Guo Yuan held a silver-tipped spear in his right hand, looked at the five or six hundred generals around him, and glanced at Liu Guang, only to see the young man holding a sharp sword, looking straight ahead, like a leopard ready to attack.

Guo Yuan smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and became sad again in an instant.

Everyone was ready for battle, the earthen city wall was not high, the enemy army directly broke through, the two armies met and fought together, the white-haired soldiers were ten with one, all as fierce as a tiger.

In the past 18 years, this Tang remnant army in the hinterland of Anxi has been elusive, and always likes to sneak attack and attack a single small group of Tibetan troops, which has long been a thorn in the flesh of Xifan, and today Xifan sent more than 500,000 troops, just to completely annihilate this beggar army, eliminate the harassment of 18 years, and boost morale.

Guo Yuan looked at the brothers who were gradually falling around him, and immediately killed the Western Tibetan soldiers who came forward as if he was crazy, so frightened that the Tibetan army did not dare to approach.

The young man on the side was tired, and at this time, three or five Fan soldiers saw the right time to attack him, Guo Yuan saw that it was not good, and the silver-headed spear was raised, and those few soldiers of the Fan Army died in Huangquan instantly.

There are more and more soldiers in the Fan army, and there are more and more soldiers in the white-haired army, Guo Yuan knows that this time it is impossible to escape, looking at the young man next to him, he doesn't want him to be buried here at a young age.

Guo Yuan said to the young man: "Xiaoguang go, didn't you keep saying that you want to go home and see the Chang'an City!"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and said in tears: "No, this is my home, I don't leave, I want to go together!"

Guo Yuan didn't care what he said, seeing that the enemy army was attacking again, he waved his spear to block the enemy, and hit the back of the young man's neck with his left hand, and the young man fell asleep.

Guo Yuan swung his spear again, and several Xifan soldiers in front of him fell, Guo Yuan threw the young man on horseback, quickly tied it up, took out something from his body, wrapped it in his clothes, and stuffed it into the young man's body.

Guo Yuan touched the young man's head and said, "Xiaoguang, take us home!" and then slapped the horse's ass with a spear, and the horse was frightened, and took advantage of the night to run in the opposite direction to himself, which was the place where everyone wanted.

Looking at the horse that was gradually running away, although he knew that there was little hope, Guo Yuan still smiled full of hope, and he summoned the soldiers to desperately resist the Xifan soldiers who came forward, just to give time for the young man.

The Xifan army is still pouring in, Guo Yuan and the others gradually can't resist, everyone is gradually surrounded, the Xifan army surrounds them, at this time there are more than a dozen white-haired soldiers, and they have long been exhausted, but they know that they have to fight to the last blood, for the dignity of the family and their own honor, and for the hope on horseback!

Everyone straightened up strongly, roared and rushed towards the enemy again, at this time the yellow sand of Tucheng had already flowed into a river of blood, and the desert chill at night hit people.

At this time, it was gradually quiet, everyone in the Western Fan Army was trembling, Guo Yuan was holding a sharp spear, and there were at least a hundred corpses in the corpses of the Fan Army who fell under the spear, Guo Yuan had already run out of oil at this time, and he slowly ran the only remaining true qi, barely supporting it, Guo Yuan looked around and shouted: "Come on, come on!" The roar that cracked the lungs frightened no one in the Fan Army to dare to step forward.

At the time of the stalemate, Xi Boda came out of the Tibetan army, and he had fought on the battlefield for many years, in the face of Guo Yuan such a hot-blooded hero, this Xifan Sword Saint had pity and admiration, but no matter what, everything should be over, and now the greatest respect for him is to give him a good time.

Guo Yuan brandished a silver spear, put the spear head on the ground, and the end was on the spine of his waist, Guo Yuan's trembling body was the last backbone of Anxi at this moment. Xi Boda came to the army, looked at Guo Yuan in front of him and was silent, he closed his eyes, waved his hand, the sword came out, Guo Yuan's neck spurted blood, and Tucheng once again sprinkled a touch of heroic blood.

Guo Yuan ended his life, but he did not fall, and still stood on top of the corpse of the Xifan army.

Maybe it's the night, or when Guo Yuan dies, no one pays attention, lying on horseback, and the boy who has left Tucheng.

Later, Xi Boda ordered Guo Yuan to bury him, and gave him the highest military general specifications in Xifan, and he was also the second opponent to be respected by Xi Boda on the battlefield in addition to Helan Jingde.

The next day, the morning sun shone on the earth again, Tucheng no longer existed, the thick smoke of gunpowder burned for a whole night, burned the thorns in the flesh of Xifan for 18 years, for Xifan, from now on Anxi has no foreign power, Anxi completely belongs to the Xifan country. The last Anxi armed force of Datang was destroyed, maybe Datang still doesn't know, thinking that Anxi, which has already changed hands, also has a group of Datang men who have been struggling to support for 18 years.

The sun shone on the horse's back, and the boy opened his eyes and fell off the horse without paying attention. The young man looked around, and remembered last night, only to know that there was nothing left, Uncle Guo and they were gone, and he wanted to take revenge, but he knew that it was a fool's dream, and he was now alone, and he didn't know where to go.

The boy wept, and at this time he was already desperate in his heart, and there was nothing left. The young man was extremely frustrated, he felt that there seemed to be something on his body, and he touched his chest, only to find that there was a cloth bag, thinking that it might have been left by Uncle Guo last night.

The young man looked at the endless desert, at this moment he remembered Guo Yuan's words last night, he closed his eyes, pondered for a moment, wiped his eyes with his hands, and rode the gray and white horse: "Uncle Guo, go home!" On the horseback, the young man burst into tears, and the young man knew that Uncle Guo and they were thinking about going home every day, returning to the home where they would laugh when they screamed in their dreams.

The road ahead is long, the desert is vast, and it is not easy to get out of the desert!

Growing up in the desert, he knew that if he wanted to travel long distances, it would be foolish to have no water and food, and he knew that he had to find a water source to replenish it, and that without water, he could sustain himself in the desert for three days at most.

"Uncle Guo said that the place where the sun rises is home," the boy muttered to himself. Thousands of miles of yellow sand Gobi, the young man rode the gray and white horse, and trekked towards the east under the scorching sun, the scorching sun was scorching, and the future was uncertain.

Guo Yuan and the others have also tried to cross the desert, but hundreds of people are easy to be discovered by the Fan army on the desert, and the long sandy road, without supplies, is a dead end, but more importantly, Guo Yuan has long been determined to dedicate himself to the country and swear to defend Anxi.

Thousands of miles of desert, a long journey, one man and one horse, if you want to break through the barren land where no one is inhabited, it is not easy to say, but the young man is like a demon, he is petite and thin, and at the moment he is like a fighter, and his perseverance is amazing.

There are always some people in the world who do what they know they can't do, and do things that are important to them.
