Beitong Pass.

"Big brother, how are your injuries?" Deng Zhanxuan said with concern.

"It's been a long time ago, and now it's alive. A few hundred more people would be fine. As he spoke, Li Qiutong waved his fist a few times to show that he was in good shape.

Ren Xingtian said helplessly: "Brother Tong, you better keep a low profile." News has been spread from the front that the Mongol army has been defeated, and Ruiyun estimates that he will be able to return after a while. When the time comes, you'll be hi again. ”

"Got it. You're talking too much and too serious right now, and it would be nice if you were as lively as you were when you saw beautiful women. Li Qiutong said with a serious face.

"That's the kind of attitude I usually have when I'm serious. ”

"So, isn't Yuling a serious matter for you?" Li Qiutong said with a smile.

"It's not a thing, okay. That's right, Brother Tong. You forcibly promoted Wu Yuan that day, and you may have suffered some internal injuries, and I have already written to Madame Hongyu, and I heard that she plans to come and show you in person. Also, according to my grapevine, Madame Hongyu has found you a lot of blind dates in Chang'an. Not to be outdone, Ren Xingtian fought back.

"Are you kidding my stepmother coming? And what is the situation of blind dates, how have I never heard of them. Li Qiutong was stunned for a moment.

And Ren Xingtian also showed a triumphant smile, "And, it seems that this time she plans to come here to stay here for a while, you better clean up your house quickly." ”

But before Li Qiutong could accept this, a soldier suddenly rushed in and reported to a few people: "City lord, an army of more than 5,000 people suddenly appeared outside, looking like Mongols. They are shouting outside to see you. ”

"Didn't the Mongols withdraw their troops? How did they get here?" Li Qiutong looked at Ren Xingtian with a blank expression, and Ren Xingtian was also puzzled.

"Big brother, let's go and have a look first. ”

"Yes. ”

When the group rushed to the city wall of the North City Gate, Li Qiutong finally realized that what the soldier said was not false at all. The wilderness below, which should have been empty, was now lined up with an army of thousands of men. The heavily armed weapons and equipment, and the solemn and stern atmosphere, made the hearts of everyone on the city wall tighten.

Li Qiutong was full of momentum, and shouted loudly downward: "This is the territory of the Tang Kingdom, who are you, what are you doing here?"

Although Hulun'er below was shocked, he still shouted to the top without showing weakness with the confidence of five thousand steppe cavalry: "I am the Mongolian general Hulun'er, today I have my eye on your city, if you open the door and surrender, maybe I can spare your life." If you and the others try to resist, we will only need ten minutes to destroy your Beitong Pass City. Now I'm just giving you half an hour to think about it, don't think about escaping, don't think about tipping off, your speed of escape will never be able to keep up with the speed at which we are chasing you. After speaking, Huluner silently began to count.

After a few words, the people on the city wall fell silent for a moment. Half a minute later, Deng Zhanxuan asked, "Big brother, what should we do?"

Li Qiutong sighed and looked at Ren Xingtiandao: "Can we win against them?"

Ren Xingtian shook his head heavily, "Difficult, there are 10,000 people in the grassland cavalry, and there are already about 5,000 people below. It accounts for half of the entire army, so their martial arts condensation can at least reach the level of a three-star saint warrior, plus the physical support of five thousand people, all of our military formations have not yet been formed, and they are almost sent to death if they go up. Our odds of winning are almost zero. ”

"How could the front line put so many Mongol troops into the pass, and wasn't the Mongol army already defeated and retreated?" the lone wolf on the side wondered.

Li Qiutong turned his head and glanced down again, "It's useless to think about it now, now that the soldiers are coming to the city, we have to fight." As he spoke, he looked at Ren Xingtian again: "Is there any way?"

For the first time in so long, Ren Xingtian showed a difficult look, stretched out his left hand and slowly counted something. After thinking for a while, Ren Xingcai opened his mouth and said slowly: "Brother Tong, I have a way." But the losses can be a bit big. ”

"You say?"

Ren Xingtian looked at the expectant eyes around him and said, "At present, our four military camps, if you don't count the 3,000 people taken away by Ruiyun, we still have more than 6,000 soldiers, and basically there are more than 2,000 people in each military camp. My idea was to let the heavy armor of the northern camp resist first, and then the men from the eastern and southern camps would raid from the flanks, but only to delay time. Taking this opportunity, Brother Tong, who can take the empty road, goes to pull the rescue as soon as possible. After finishing speaking, Ren Xingtian silently looked at Li Qiutong, waiting for him to make a decision.

"You said they went up to die, right?" Li Qiutong only asked.

Ren Xingtian did not answer.

"Let all the barracks commanders bring their men to the central playground to assemble. After finishing speaking, Li Qiutong silently left the city wall.

The central playground is large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people, and is generally used for coordinated combat training of different arms of the military. At this time, these three different armies were lined up in the huge playground.

Li Qiutong stood at the front, took a deep breath, and said to the bottom: "You shouldn't know what I summoned you for." Let me tell you, there are now 5,000 steppe cavalry outside the city, and they are planning to attack Beitong Pass in half an hour. ”

After Li Qiutong said this, there was already a lot of discussion in the army.

"Silence, listen to me continue. To tell you the truth, I spent so much energy training you, and my dream is to train the world's best military army. But time didn't seem to allow me to do so, and I sent 5,000 people directly to my door. However, as your lord, I feel it is my duty to ensure that you live. ”

Speaking of this, the scene quieted down for a moment, and Ren Xingtian wanted to say something, but was directly stopped by Li Qiutong.

And Li Qiutong also continued: "You have your own ideas and purposes, and I didn't want to ask before. I just want to fulfill my dream, and now my dream is over, but yours haven't yet. After leaving, go do what you want. Hope not to fail like I did. Flee as soon as you can. The eastern military camp was led by a lone wolf to the east city gate, the southern military camp fled from the west city gate with Biluo, and the people from the northern military camp fled from the south gate with my third brother Deng Zhanxuan. After speaking, Li Qiutong turned around and walked directly to the north.

Some soldiers asked loudly, "City Lord, what about the five thousand steppe cavalry outside the city?"

Li Qiutong waved his hand behind his back and said confidently: "Their level is a three-star saint martial artist, your city lord will beat them back to their hometown." ”

Ren Xingtian hurriedly caught up with Li Qiutong, "Brother Tong, you are going to die." ”

"Let them go is thousands of people to die, let me go is just one person to die. Li Qiutong had already understood Ren Xingtian's meaning just now, that is, let these soldiers block the grassland cavalry, and then he and the others would take the opportunity to escape. To be honest, this is really good, Li Qiutong's life is much more valuable than the lives of those soldiers who have no fighting spirit and no goal. But Li Qiutong told him in his heart that he couldn't do this, and perhaps, this was the guardian in his heart.

"Okay then, Brother Tong, I'll accompany you. Ren Xingtian also calmly followed Li Qiutong.

But Li Qiutong directly lifted his collar and threw it at Deng Zhanxuan, who was still hesitating, "You are responsible for taking Yuling and Mrs. Yang and following the third brother and them together." If they make a mistake, I'll ask you. ”

After speaking, Li Qiutong looked at Deng Zhanxuan again, and smiled calmly: "Third brother, you go to find the second brother first, and I will come to you later." ”

"Big brother, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, when did I lie to you. Let's go. As he spoke, Li Qiutong's figure had slowly left everyone's field of vision.

At the gate of the northern city, Huluner was still counting. Suddenly, a figure jumped down from the city wall and fell handsomely to one knee to the ground, shaking a gust of wind and sand.

Huluner looked up at the person in front of him, wearing a simple black and white Tang military uniform, holding a black and white long stick, and his ordinary but resolute face was full of determination.

"What, you're going to surrender?"

Li Qiutong smiled slightly and said, "I heard that you were defeated by a young man named Yang Ruiyun in Kaiyan Pass. ”

Hulun'er's face was slightly angry, but after all, as a general, he still controlled his mood, and said without changing his face: "That young man is not bad, but he is just a clown who jumps off the beam in my eyes." ”

Actually, Yang Ruiyun is my second brother, and I still know how much he can do. Since you said that, it seems that he still left you a little affection, and did not use all his strength. ”

"What did you say?" shouted Huluner.

Li Qiutong shrugged his shoulders and pointed the Yin Yang Dragon Pattern Stick at Hulun'er in a dashing manner. "Since my second brother failed to educate you well, I, as the eldest brother, will teach you another good lesson. As he spoke, the martial arts on Li Qiutong's body increased sharply, and then four different martial arts erupted from him.

A snow-white Pegasus spread its wings and soared above Li Qiutong. On one side of the Pegasus, a large green bird vibrates its wings covered with clear feathers.

And in the rear of Li Qiutong, bursts of thunder flashed, which was terrifying. If you look closely, it is a thunderbolt dragon crawling with electric light. And on Li Qiutong's shoulder, there is also a fire pheasant burning with Lizhi Wuyuan.

The resolute Pegasus, the agile Wind Bird, the irritable Thunder Dragon, the Burning Pheasant, and the four complete martial arts condensation forms protected Li Qiutong's body, shocking the five thousand centaurs on the opposite side for a while.

Huluner did not show weakness, and with a single stroke of the long knife, the Wu Yuan of five thousand people was instantly condensed together. A gray divine wolf opened its bloody mouth and glared at Li Qiutong deadly.

At this moment, the martial arts of both sides have reached the extreme, but Li Qiutong is still a little weaker, after all, his ultimate strength is only at the stage of a two-star holy martial artist, and the strength of the other party's martial yuan has properly reached the stage of a three-star holy martial artist.

"Do you want to be a husband and a husband?" Hulun'er, who was constantly surging with power, asked Li Qiutong confidently.

Li Qiutong stretched out his index finger, shook it from side to side, and said with a smile: "It's not that powerful, I'm just abusing you a thousand people by myself." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qiutong lifted the long stick, and the four Wu Yuan condensation forms attacked the divine wolf who was eyeing him together.
