The morning sun rose, on the green fields of the river bay, on the golden desert in the distance, corpses and pools of blood, shocking. The mouth of the river was the longest and the most bloody, which soaked the meadows and stained the river red, and flowed toward the city of Gadi.

The Zhongcao people who get up early to draw water should be able to see the blood in the water and smell the fishy smell in the water, and I don't know if it will cause panic. However, Zhongcao is a fighting country, so I don't think I will panic about it.

After a night of fierce fighting, almost all of them were very tired, but the joy of victory sustained them, made them energetic and high-spirited.

With more than 50 cavalry, he defeated 10 times the size of the Turkic elite cavalry, and beheaded more than 200 ranks, and captured more than 100 war horses alone, there is no doubt that this was a great victory.

Everyone was happy, and Li Zaixing was also happy, but he didn't dare to be careless.

Ashina Moye could rush to retaliate at any time, and in broad daylight, without the cover of night, it was impossible for him to make another surprise attack. The myth he had just created was likely to be shattered by Ashina Moye, revealing its original form.

Li Zaixing did three things.

First of all, he asked Aya to send someone to contact Ibrahim, there is a large amount of loot to be collected, just these warriors around him who have been fighting all night are too late, part of it will be given to Ibrahim as Aya's dowry, and at the same time, Ibrahim will come to help, prepare to deal with Ashinamoye's counterattack, and then cooperate in attacking the city of Gadijin.

Secondly, he asked Al Maidi to put up the battle flag of Zhongcao, and tried every means to recruit as many Zhongcao people as possible to participate in the war. The largest city in Zhongcao is the city of Chaldi, but the city is limited after all, a large number of Zhongcao people live outside the city, and many are in nearby small cities, which are not under the control of Ashina Moye.

In the end, he asked Du Fu to go to the city of Gadi, meet Ashina Moye, and try to persuade him to take the initiative to withdraw from the city of Gadi. At the very least, he also wants to release Xue Yu and inquire about the news of Julia and others.

Du Fu readily agreed. He was not a man of all sizes, but he was now full of faith, a faith that he could not even say. He wrote a poem on the spot:

Hold the bow as strong, and use the arrow as the long.

Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king.

There is a limit to killing, and the nations have their own borders.

If you can control the invasion of the mausoleum, how can you kill more?

The surrounding soldiers listened and applauded in unison, Pei Xuanqing laughed and said: "Du Er, along the way, your poems are becoming more and more like Li Shixian, and this one is even more impassioned, I am so excited to listen to it." Good poetry, good poetry! This is the poem that my good man in the Tang Dynasty should write. ”

Du Fu stroked his beard and smiled proudly. A poem that can make people like Pei Xuanqing feel good, he feels that he has really improved. Not only does Pei Xuanqing think it's good, but he also thinks it's good, compared to "Wangyue", although this poem is smaller, it is too arrogant.

Li Zaixing is embarrassed, Du Fu's poem was actually produced like this?

"Li Dalang, how is it?" Du Fu looked at Li Zaixing with a smile, waiting for him to praise him.

Li Zaixing pondered for a moment: "I think it's good, it's far from enough, I think you should copy it to Li Bai and Cen Shen, they are poets, and they should be able to better understand the good intentions." He paused, then smiled again: "I want you to read this poem to Ashina Moye, so that he can know that I don't want to kill more, but just want to stop his invasion of the tomb and retrieve what he took away." ”

"Definitely, definitely." Du Fu laughed on his back, turned over on his horse, and galloped away with Ah Duan.

Li Zaixing was in a trance for a while, is this the Du Fu who is as sad as the twilight of his life, why does he look so much like the high-spirited Li Bai?

……

At three o'clock in the morning, Ibrahim arrived first.

He was not far away, and when he received the news from Li Zaixing, he hurriedly led a hundred knights to come. Along the way, he carefully inquired about the battle and praised Li Zaixing's tactics.

He is a battle-hardened man, and he understands the subtleties of Li Zaixing's tactics better than anyone else, and he can also understand the subtleties of Li Zaixing's seemingly bold beneath them. He combined all the factors to accumulate small victories into big victories, and found the possibility from the impossible, thus creating a near-miraculous victory.

This man is not only brave, but also resourceful, at least he can be a general, and he is fully qualified to be his ally.

Ibrahim rejoiced that Aya's hasty decision to save him might have turned the tide for his tribe, and that was Allah's answer to the prayers of the Seyars.

People are in good spirits at happy events, and the spring breeze is proud. Although it was already mid-autumn, Ibrahim's heart was still as hopeful as spring, and he galloped on horseback, and it only took half an hour to reach the riverbend and meet Li Zaixing and Aya.

Aya came out of the camp to greet him, threw herself into Ibrahim's arms, put her arms around his neck, and laughed. The day and night that had just passed were the first time in her life that she had left her father so far, and she had experienced a fierce battle, and she saw her father again, as if every three autumns.

"Hahaha......" Ibrahim was in a happy mood, patted his daughter's back, and said with a smile: "They are all wives of people, you can't be so presumptuous anymore, you are the virgin of the Seyar family." ”

Aya giggled and pulled Ibrahim to Li Zaixing.

Li Zaixing sat on the Mazar, and there was a map that had just been drawn in front of him, and Ibrahim glanced at it: "The real city of Gadi? ”

"Yes, there are also the cities of Tuozhi, Samadgand, and Ayanmi." Li Zaixing pointed out one by one: "The true city of Gadi is in the midst of all cities, so we have to consider it holistically. ”

The smile on Ibrahim's face faded and became serious. He gently pushed Aya away, sat opposite Li Zaixing, looked at the map, and said after a while: "How sure are you?" ”

"Seventy percent."

"Seventy percent?" Ibrahim raised his eyebrows, not quite convinced.

"You should know better than I do about the situation of the Great Eclipse, and in such a situation, it is impossible for the governor of Khorasan to go north in a big way. As long as we don't take the initiative to provoke, the cities of Samad and Ayanmi will remain silent. Although it won't take long, as long as we handle it properly, it is still very possible to take this opportunity to take the city of Chalde. ”

Ibrahim tugged at his thick beard and didn't say a word for a long time. He knew that Da Shi was in a civil war, and the governor of Khorasan, Mu Xilin, did not have the troops to move north, but Li Zaixing's troops were too small, even if he could recruit some Zhongcao people to participate in the war, plus his tribe, the total strength was also very limited. The storming of the city of Chaldea will inevitably result in heavy losses. He didn't want to lose what little strength he had left.

"You don't have to worry." Li Zaixing saw Ibrahim's worry, and he smiled: "My life is more precious than you think, and if you are not sure, I will not gamble easily." ”

Ibrahim smiled sheepishly.

"Captain, Al Maddy is back." Bai Xiaode suddenly screamed and pointed into the distance.

Li Zaixing followed the sound and looked at it, only to see smoke and dust billowing in the distance, dozens of riders in front, and more than 100 people behind, like a giant dragon, roaring. Although the number of people is not very large, the momentum is extremely amazing.

Ibrahim was startled, instinctively stood up, and waved his knights to prepare for battle. Aya hurriedly grabbed him and whispered, "It's Ermadi's centaurs, not enemies." ”

Ibrahim breathed a sigh of relief, and then frowned again: "Almadi has such strength, which is not a good sign for you." ”

Aya squeezed her eyes: "With Daddy, I'm not afraid." ”

Their father and daughter talked in the language of big food, and their voices were low, and the old man who acted as the translator couldn't hear it clearly, and Li Zaixing naturally couldn't understand it even more. However, when he heard Al Maddie's name and looked at the expressions of their father and daughter, he could roughly guess something, and he couldn't help but laugh secretly.

After a short time, Al Maddy ran to the front, turned over and dismounted, and said loudly with a happy face: "Master, the hearts of the people are still there, the battle flag is together, and the servants are gathered." Almost every Zhongcao person is willing to fight with the master, I will bring back more than a hundred people first, and more will arrive soon. Master, I want all the horses and camels, we need a lot of weapons and equipment. ”

Li Zaixing smiled and nodded: "It's okay to have weapons and camels, but they have to bring their own food, at least they must be able to support us to take the city of Gadi, do you think there is a problem?" ”

"No problem." Elmadi raised his eyebrows: "Take the city of Gadijin, and we will have more food." ”

Li Zaixing smiled with satisfaction, turned to Ibrahim and said: "I want to keep the camel and horse weapons this time, and I will keep half of the other belongings for the soldiers who participated in the war, and the remaining half as Aya's dowry, what do you think?" ”

Ibrahim hesitated, he also needed camel weapons, the amount of property left was already limited, Li Zaixing had to take half of it, and the dowry was too thin.

"If you are willing to fight with me, I will give you the same spoils after you take the city of Gadi. In addition, I will report your situation and achievements to the imperial court, try my best to win the gift of the Son of Heaven, send a large army to help you restore the country, in case you can't return to the big food, you can also go to Chang'an to be a public servant and enjoy your old age in peace. ”

Ibrahim's heart pounded.

Li Zaixing's words were too tempting, poking at his weakness everywhere. He is now at the end of his rope and his time is running out, and he needs a solid backer. Looking at the world, which backer is more solid than Datang? With the support of Datang, even if there is no hope of recovering the country, he doesn't have to worry about Mu Xilin's pursuit, if he can fight, he can fight, if he can't fight, he can still retreat into the territory of Datang and enjoy the protection of Datang. Just like Li Zaixing said, if he takes 10,000 steps back, he can also go to Chang'an to be a public servant, and say goodbye to this frightened life completely.

"Good!" Ibrahim stretched out his big hand and swore an oath with Li Zaixing.
