After leaving the Tang army camp for a few miles, Li Tao felt that something was wrong, and under his sharp questioning, Liu Xing, the head of the team, had to tell the truth.

An enemy army of 20,000 people raided the camp, and Li Qinzai sent Li Tao away and led 5,000 soldiers and horses to fight against the enemy.

Li Tao was both angry and distressed, and even made Liu Xing turn around and return to the camp.

He is the commander of the first army, and when the enemy army is attacked, he will never allow himself to escape, let alone his own grandson to fight the enemy army alone in order to cover him.

Whether it is the position of the elders or the position of the soldiers, it is a great shame for Li Tao to escape.

However, Liu Xing refused Li Tao's order.

He only remembered Li Qinzai's words, no matter what Li Tao said, he couldn't return to the camp, he must protect Li Tao and join the main army, the enemy is current, the ancestors and grandchildren can't be planted at the same time, and one must survive after all.

Like a deathbed confession, Liu Xing remembered it with tears.

This is a parting that has no choice, and Li Qinzai's decision is the most sober and rational.

But Li Tao couldn't agree, seeing that Liu Xing refused to obey his fate, Li Tao struggled left and right, so angry that he almost fainted.

Liu Xing gritted his teeth and withstood Li Tao's scolding and anger, and for the first time in his life, he disobeyed.

It wasn't until he left the camp for dozens of miles that Li Tao finally gave up.

He knew that Li Qinzai had already encountered the enemy army at this time, and even if he rushed back, it would be useless, and everything would be too late.

But Li Tao did not give up rescuing Li Qinzai, in order to save his life, his grandson is sticking to the front and swearing not to retreat, fighting bloody battles with the enemy, as a grandfather, what can he do?

One by one, the troops were sent out by Li Tao, each with two horses to report to the main force of Qibi He Li, it doesn't matter if the horses run away or the people run away, they must use the fastest time to transfer reinforcements to rescue Li Qinzai.

Looking up at the sky, the sky is already bright.

Li Tao was lying on a soft pocket, and the scenery on the side of the road quickly receded.

The mood was very anxious, and the famous Tang generals who did not change their colors after the collapse of Mount Tai could no longer hide their worries at this time.

He hated his old age, hated Li Qinzai's rash decisions.

The choice was wrong, and it was he Li Tao who should be sacrificed.

What a pity for dying in his twilight years, Li Qinzai is the future of the Li family, if he has three longs and two shorts, how can Li Tao have the face to live?

This idiot!

Li Tao, who has not shed tears for many years, still shed two lines of old tears after all.

Above the dome, the young eagle finally grows up, and under its outstretched wings, it is the weeping eagle.

The chick is strong, but it feeds back.

…………

The Tang army camp was five miles away.

The Tang army, which had only more than two thousand left, was exhausted and experienced a tragic battle, but it did not take a step back.

Of course, the situation is not optimistic, and every soldier knows that today will be a battle to the death.

Either the enemy army was completely annihilated or retreated in panic, or all the officers and men of the Tang Army were killed and died heroically.

There is no other option.

Now, Li Qinzai is not anxious.

Why are you worried about being alive when you already have the will to die?

When it's time to die, the bird lies on its back with the sky and it's done.

In this life, he is a high-ranking official, has fine clothes and food, and has married several mothers-in-law reasonably and legally, what is there to regret?

Li Qinzai is very free and easy, knowing that he is in a desperate situation, but he is not sad at all.

He even talked and laughed with the soldiers.

Collecting the gunpowder of the soldiers, making the last explosives bag, and tying it to his waist, Li Qinzai hummed an unknown tune in his mouth.

Feng Su looked at him quietly, and stopped talking a few times.

Li Qinzai didn't raise his head, but he seemed to know what he was going to say, and said lightly: "Don't tell me to escort me to escape first, I can't afford to lose that person." ”

Feng Su couldn't help but say: "The body of the fifth young man's daughter, why bother ......"

Before he finished speaking, Li Qinzai glanced up at him and interrupted: "When the soldiers are desperate, they keep saying 'Brother Paoze', and the boss is going to escape, and what do you say'The body of a daughter', you can't be so shameless." ”

"I gave the order to hold on, and I also gave the order to fight to the last soldier, I finished the order, and ran away first when I saw that the situation was not good, leaving the soldiers stupidly to go up and fight hard, do you think I can still look up and see people in the future?"

After tying the explosives around his waist, Li Qinzai moved his hands and feet, feeling that it would not fall off, so he nodded with satisfaction.

Feng Su sighed: "But the fifth young man doesn't have to tie this damn thing to his waist, if it really explodes, you can ...... There are no bones left. ”

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "What I want is that there are no bones, otherwise even if I die in battle, I don't know how the enemy will abuse my corpse, if I threaten my grandfather with my corpse, maybe my grandfather will really compromise, anyway, I am going to die, why bother to embarrass the elders." ”

Feng Su hung his head gloomily, and Li Qinzai's smile at the moment was incompatible with the atmosphere on the battlefield.

What kind of determination can you laugh at this moment?

This fifth young man, who is not serious on weekdays and has a temperament that is simply an outlier of the Li family, turned out to be such a free and easy real man.

Sacrifice your life to go to the country, and see death as if you were going home.

…………

The battlefield has been cleaned, and the corpses of the soldiers who died in battle have also been collected and placed on the flat ground in the distance.

The atmosphere around was very solemn, and there were howls from time to time in the crowd, and as soon as they spoke, they were slapped and shut up by the general.

"What are you crying about! Is it fear of death or unwillingness? Liu Ren walked back and forth in the crowd with his scabbard raised, scolding fiercely.

"Look at Li Shuai, do you see it? A lot of precious people, like our brothers in robes, have not retreated, even if they die, Li Shuai will accompany us, what is there to cry about! ”

Everyone craned their necks and looked at the handsome banner.

Under the handsome flag, Li Qinzai had just tied the explosive bag around his waist, looked up and smiled at the soldiers.

"Don't say anything empty about swearing to serve the country, I actually want to escape, but I don't dare to escape," Li Qinzai smiled and grinned with white teeth: "I'm not so brave, but I take more money than you, eat better than you, and enjoy more than you ......."

"You see, my life is better than yours, but you tried your best, but I turned around and ran, I feel very embarrassed, haha."

As soon as he said a few words, the crowd immersed in grief suddenly burst out laughing, and the solemn atmosphere gradually became cheerful.

Li Qinzai gradually smiled, looked around at the soldiers around him, and sighed gloomily: "To be honest, there are really not too many brothers who survive today's battle to the death, including me, who have already stepped into the ghost gate." ”

"However, I still say the same thing, I can't retreat, I can't retreat."

"We have given up this way to the south, and the main force of our royal division can be attacked on the back of the enemy, the battle of the Eastern Expedition that the imperial court has prepared for many years, and the national war supported by hundreds of people's taxes, if we fall short because of our escape, how can we explain to the Jiangdong fathers."
