Chapter 202 Defending the Western Frontier, the City Is Broken and Will Not Look Back

The white tiger's face was solemn, and after a long sigh, he looked at the latter and replied,

"We have been dealing with Yu Li and Panwu for 20 years, these two people are ambitious, how can they give up on what happened back then, according to my understanding of them, this time the imperial court sent troops to the west, how could the Xirong army let go of the great opportunity to invade the Central Plains",

Tie Lin's expression was complicated, and after a moment of silence, he looked at the white tiger and asked tentatively,

"General, Xirong invaded the Central Plains, do you say that the imperial court will send troops to deal with it",

The white tiger snorted coldly, and replied with disdain on his face,

"The current Ziwei court is the prince's East Palace faction, and the eunuchs headed by Cao Zhang are in charge, if these traitors and thieves really think about the people and the community, the tragedy in the eastern capital of Luoyang 16 years ago would not have happened",

The white tiger's tone was gloomy, and his words revealed disdain for the people in power in the court,

Tie Lin let out a long sigh, his eyes revealing unconcealable worry,

"It's really a wave of unsettled waves, the southern Xinjiang army is tricky enough, and now there is another Xirong army, my tiger prison is really on the verge of life and death this time."

The white tiger was silent, fell into deep thought, and after a while, he looked at the latter with a serious face and said,

"No matter how difficult our current situation may be, we must not allow the people to suffer from the flames of war",

The white tiger thought for a while, and randomly looked at the latter and asked,

"Tielin, how many troops are now stationed in the western highlands 30 miles away from the Tiger Pass",

"Five thousand, all the elite of the old department of the winner's army",

Tie Lin replied without thinking, the western highlands are the border between the Central Plains and the western tribes, and it is also the main battlefield that once quelled the Xirong rebellion.

It is a trench that blocks the Tiger Prison Pass, even after the end of the war, the winner army has not relaxed its control over the western highlands, and the defense of the western highlands is originally in charge of Tielin.

He knows the terrain and garrison situation here well.

The white tiger pondered, weighed it and slowly shook his head,

"Not enough, this time the situation is different from the past, the Xirong army was just a small force harassment before, but this time Panwu and Taoli will definitely overwhelm the border with a large army, and the troops in the western highlands are far from enough",

The white tiger was silent for a moment, and looked at the latter at random and said solemnly,

"Tielin, tomorrow you will personally lead 30,000 old troops to reinforce the western highlands",

Tie Lin was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the latter randomly and said in surprise,

"General, 300,000 troops in southern Xinjiang have invaded the border, our troops are at an absolute disadvantage, and the strength of the Tiger Pass is already a little tight, and now that 30,000 troops are transferred, it will become very difficult to defend the city."

Tie Lin's face was solemn, and there was endless worry in his words, if it was really as the white tiger said that he would bring 30,000 troops over, then the number of troops in the tiger prison was less than 80,000.

It also includes the 30,000 new army formed in recent years, and when the time comes, facing the siege of 300,000 southern Xinjiang troops, even if the winner army is brave and good at fighting, it will become extremely difficult to defend the city.

The white tiger's eyes were resolute, and he looked at Tie Lin and said resolutely,

"No matter how difficult the defense of the Tiger Prison Pass is, it will not allow the Xirong army to cross the western heights."

The white tiger sighed lightly and looked at the latter and said earnestly,

"Tie Lin, no one knows the situation of the Tiger Prison Pass better than you and me, the West City Gate is the weakest of the four City Gates, if we give up the western highlands and concentrate all the battlefields on the Tiger Prison Pass",

"At that time, we will face the attack of the imperial court and the Xirong army, we can't hold it at all, you won't understand this, once the tiger prison is broken, the winning position will be doomed",

"Hundreds of thousands of people in Tiger Prison Pass will also be slaughtered, isn't everything we have done today just to be able to protect his orphans for the eldest brother, isn't it just so that the people of Tiger Prison Pass can live a peaceful life?"

The white tiger paused, and continued randomly,

"The western highlands are different, this is a moat that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is a natural barrier to the west of the Tiger Prison Pass, as long as this barrier is held, the Xirong Army will not want to step into the Tiger Prison Pass for half a step."

The white tiger looked at the stunned road ahead,

Tie Lin's expression was complicated, and after a moment of silence, he looked at the latter and pleaded,

"General, why don't you let Wu Shigui lead the new army to reinforcements, I want to stay in the Tiger Prison Pass",

Tie Lin's expression was moved, he naturally knew what the white tiger said, but he knew in his heart that even if Xirong invaded the Central Plains, the situation in the Tiger Prison City would be much more dangerous than that in the Western Highlands.

He hopes to stay in the city to help the White Tiger, and live and die with the brothers of the old department of the Winner Army.

The white tiger sighed lightly, as an old brother who had come down on the battlefield of Xirong, how could he not understand the latter's current mood, but the form of war was so complicated,

As the commander, the White Tiger must focus on the overall situation in the mobilization of troops, he was silent for a moment and then looked at Tie Lin and comforted,

"Tie Lin, do you think that the defense of the Western Highlands is not as important as the Tiger Prison Kanto City, and you think that I didn't put you, an old brother, on the most dangerous battlefield and have a grudge?"

"I'm telling you, you're wrong, the defense of the Western Highlands is more important than the guards of any city gate, you have been in charge of the defense of the Western Highlands, and no one knows the situation there better than you,

"Also, do you think that if you send Wu Shigui to go, how can the new army that has never been on the battlefield compete with the fierce Xirong army?"

Tie Lin was emotional, looking at the white tiger and said movingly,

"General, but I really can't rest assured that the brothers in the Tiger Prison City, if Guan Bao is still there, I will definitely go to guard the Western Heights with confidence, but now, if I leave, you don't even have a helper by your side, how can you let me feel at ease",

Tie Lin's face was bitter, and he choked up several times when he spoke, and the white tiger was also moved at the moment, and fell into silence, more than 10 years of border passes, more than 10 years of conquest,

How many brothers stained the yellow sand with blood, and their souls were extinguished, following General Win to quell the Xijon Rebellion, the old generals of the Winner Army, who were once full of halls, are now only the two of them,

If Guan Leopard is still there at this time, Tielin's reinforcement of the highlands will be much more relieved, and the old brothers who came together during the period of victory and martyrdom will stay by his side, and the white tiger will also be much easier.

It's a pity that now there is only empty talk, Baihu retracted his thoughts, and looked at the latter's stunned words,

"Tielin, Guan Bao is gone, and the old brothers who once quelled the Xirong rebellion together are gone, but we have to fight the next battle for them, and we have to guard the tiger prison for them."

"Tomorrow, you lead your 30,000 ironclad battalions to reinforce the western highlands, no matter what happens in the city, you can't go back to the city to reinforce, you remember, the Tiger Prison is broken, but our brothers died on the battlefield,

"And the western highlands are lost, the Xijon army will break the city, and hundreds of thousands of people will be slaughtered, so no matter what happens, you must defend the western highlands",

Tie Lin's expression was moved, and he watched the white tiger make a final request,

"The tiger prison is broken, am I not allowed to lead my troops back to defend ......",

"No ......",

The white tiger's eyes are resolute, and his tone is resolute and unquestionable,

"The winner's army must not let the people be in danger in the depths, the ironclad battalion is guarding the western border, and Xirong cannot be allowed to cross the border by half a step, and the tiger prison is broken through the city, you are not allowed to return to help",

Tie Lin suppressed his emotions, the corners of his mouth twitched, but his eyes were resolute,

"The last will obey",

Tie Lin clenched his fists heavily, randomly turned around and walked towards the outside of the main hall, the white tiger looked moved, and fell into a long silence as he watched the direction Tie Lin left,

Even if there was no longer Tie Lin in the hall, the white tiger still did not retract his gaze, and the last two old generals of the Zhenxi period won the Wuxian period,

Running to different battlefields with the same responsibility, this parting has become forever,
