It has been more than 70 years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and after a long period of peace, people have gradually forgotten about the war.

Four years ago, Wang Xiaojie, the general of Yingwuwei, led his army to defeat the Tubo army and recover the four towns of the Western Regions, but the Tubo was not reconciled, and it joined forces with the Turks and waged wars against the Tang army several times in an attempt to recapture the Western Regions.

This time, Wang Xiaojie led an army of 50,000 from Dunhuang to the south of the plateau, preparing to attack the Tibetan general Bo Lunzanjian and the ten Western Turkic khans supported by Tubo, Ashina Yuzi.

The Tibetan and Turkic armies were at a disadvantage, and in order to save the tide of the war, the Turkic cavalry launched a sneak attack on Dunhuang City, the logistics center of the Tang army.

Five thousand Turkic cavalry came from the north to Dunhuang, and they were found by merchants passing through Dunhuang, and immediately reported to Dunhuang City.

Dunhuang City, which has not experienced war for 20 years, is in chaos, and every family cries for their fathers and mothers, desperately hiding their children and family property in the cellar, and everyone feels that the end is coming.

The shape of Dunhuang is extremely severe, and the Doulu army is not in Dunhuang City at this time, but as the logistics escort of Wang Xiaojie's army, it is stationed in the area of Nanshan Pass, which is about two hundred miles away from Dunhuang City.

There are only 500 state soldiers in Dunhuang City, how can it withstand the attack of 5,000 Turkic cavalry, once the city is broken, the result will inevitably be a massacre, and no one in Dunhuang will survive tens of thousands of civilians.

The north gate was in disarray, and a large number of peasants and merchants poured in from outside the city, crying and scolding, and a dozen camels and several ox carts crowded at the city gate, so that the city gate could not be closed.

Sima Suo Zhiping shouted loudly and ordered the state soldiers to separate the camels from the ox carts, and the city gates must be closed immediately.

At the head of the city, the face of Li Wuxian was extremely solemn, and his heart was also a mess, he didn't know what to do, if Dunhuang was slaughtered by the Turks, wouldn't he become a criminal minister of Shazhou.

At this time, Changshi Jiang Yuan stepped forward and said in a low voice: "It is imperative to send someone to the south to report the news, and let Zhang Ting do his best to return to the army to rescue, this is the only way to keep Dunhuang." ”

"But I'm afraid it's too late. ”

"Envoy, I heard that the Turks are all cavalry, not good at attacking cities, they also have to temporarily make siege weapons, if we gather the children of Dunhuang martial arts, at least a few thousand people, weapons for them to defend their homeland, I believe it can buy a little time. ”

Li Wuqi nodded, "You're right, we can't give up hope, I'll send someone to the rescue!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a cry of surprise from the city, and I saw that a black line had appeared in the distance in the south and north, and the Turkic cavalry had already killed.

Li Wuyi's face turned pale, the Turks were actually killing from two directions, and the way to the south for help had been cut off, what should I do?

At this time, an entourage stepped forward quickly and said, "Enlighten the envoy, Li Zhen asks to see, he is willing to kill and ask for help!"

Li Wuqi saw a glimmer of hope in despair, and he hurriedly said: "Bring him up!"

After a while, Li Zhen was brought up by his entourage, and he hugged his fists and said, "Envoy, the student is willing to go to Nanshan for help." ”

"But the Turks have cut off the road to the south, don't you know?"

Li Zhen nodded, "The student just knew about this situation and asked to go out for help, the student's war horse is extremely fast, and he can also ride and shoot, I believe that he can fight his way out of the encirclement, give me two days, and the student will definitely let Zhang Junenvoy lead the army back to help." ”

Li Zhen originally wanted to join the soldiers to defend Dunhuang, but just now when he heard that the Turkic army was coming from the south, he immediately realized that it was not so easy to ask for help.

In the entire Dunhuang City, he had the highest level of riding and archery, and the best war horse, only he could rush out, he didn't have time to hesitate, and immediately rushed to take the initiative to ask for help.

Li Wuyi glanced at Jiang Yuan, Jiang Yuan nodded, "Envoy, this son is the only one!"

Li Wuqi resolutely made up his mind, "Okay! I'll give you a token, you immediately change into armor and leave the city immediately." ”

Li Zhen put on a suit of armor, brought three pots of arrows, two bows, and a spear, tightened his armor, and turned over a red-blooded horse.

Li Wuqi took his hand and told him repeatedly: "You must rush out, the lives of tens of thousands of people in Dunhuang are on you." ”

Li Zhen nodded, at this time, the city gate opened a crack, Li Zhen clamped his legs, and the majestic red-blooded horse rushed out of the city gate like an arrow, he crouched on the war horse, and accelerated the horse to gallop southwest.

As soon as Li Zhen left, Li Quan hurriedly came, and she was so anxious that she shouted, "Have you seen my brother?"

Li Wuxian sighed apologetically, pointed to the city gate that was closing, and said, "Your brother has gone out to ask for help." ”

Li Quan was stunned, her eyes were dark, and she actually fainted

The Turkic commander had guessed that Dunhuang City would send people to ask for help, so he divided his troops into two routes, attacked Dunhuang City from the north and south, and sent more than a dozen patrol teams, distributed around Dunhuang City, asking them to hunt and kill those who went to rescue.

Li Zhen galloped on horseback, he did not directly attack the main Turkic force in the south, that was to find death, he broke through from the southwest, and he did not see the Turkic army there.

His horse was extremely fast, and in a moment it had galloped four or five miles, and in front of him was a small beard*, when suddenly, with a sharp sound of 'Boom!', a chirping drum, swept over his head.

As soon as Li Zhen turned around, he saw a Turkic sentry standing on the poplar tree dozens of steps away on the left, holding a bow and arrow, he immediately opened his bow and set up an arrow, drew the bow like a full moon, and a wolf's tooth arrow shot out like lightning, hitting the Turkic sentry in the throat, and the sentry screamed and fell down from the tree.

But the sound of the Turkic sentry was a signal, and in a moment, a group of Turkic cavalry of about thirty men rushed from Hu*'s left with a shout.

Li Zhen was a little flustered in his heart, he rode a war horse and galloped around Hu * from the right, but unexpectedly, a Turkic patrol cavalry came out from the woods in front of him, about 20 people, blocking his way.

This cavalry was very close to him, two Turkic soldiers swung their swords at him, at this moment of life and death, Li Zhen actually calmed down, waved a spear in his left hand to block the Turkic soldier's sword, and drew his sword with his right hand to split, a bloody light burst out, and the Turkic soldier even the helmet and head were cut off in half.

It was the first time for Li Zhen to use his master to set a Tang sword for him, and he didn't expect that this sword was so sharp, he was stunned for a moment, roared again, and swung his sword to slash at another soldier, he was extremely powerful, this sword cut the opponent's knife directly, and the blade of the sword slashed into the opponent's eyebrows.

He killed two people in an instant, but the other twenty or so Turkic cavalry were not intimidated, shouting and swinging their spears at him, while the thirty Turkic cavalry behind also chased after him, and several arrows swept over his head.

At this moment, he heard the sound of the wind behind his head, and instinctively lowered his head, and an arrow struck his helmet with a pop, the tip of which was against his scalp, and flew out with his helmet.

Li Zhen broke out in a cold sweat, he was now surrounded by Turkic cavalry, and only Hu * on the left could go, he threw away his spear without thinking, and ran towards Hu *.

Arrows continued to shoot from behind him, shooting over his head and around him, and Hu* was so dense that he couldn't run at all, only because he was riding a BMW that he could run in Hu*.

Seeing that they could not rush into the woods, the Turkic cavalry behind them cursed loudly, leaving two soldiers behind, while the rest of the cavalry divided into two routes and flanked Hu *.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the Turkic cavalry left, Li Zhen returned from the same way, and he knew that the Turkic cavalry would definitely rush to the front of the woods to outflank him, and he could get rid of the encirclement by killing the horse and gun.

He stretched out his bow and arrows, and two wolf's tooth arrows shot out in succession, and the two Turkic cavalrymen who were guarding the place were shot by Li Zhen's arrows, screaming and falling off their horses, Li Zhen rushed out of Hu * and continued to run southwest.

He ran dozens of paces, and more than fifty Turkic cavalry behind him finally appeared, and they roared to chase after the messenger Tang soldier who teased them.

Li Zhen galloped wildly, he had ripped off the helmet that hung on his shoulders, revealing a jet-black head, and let them fall over his shoulders.

While running, he turned around and shot arrows, an arrow was as fast as an arrow, the arrow was like a strong rain, and every time an arrow was shot, a pursuer fell off his horse screaming, and the Turkic cavalry also shot arrows randomly, and Tintin shot on his armor on the spot, he was wearing Mingguang armor, and he was not pierced by the arrow.

Li Zhen's confidence was greatly increased, he had heard since he was a child that the bows and arrows of the Tang army fifty paces away shot opaque light armor, and the most powerful Tang bow in the world was still like this, not to mention the inferior bows and arrows of the Turks.

Li Zhen rode his horse on the Gobi Desert, the strong gallop of the sweaty BMW made him like a tiger with wings, he drew his bow like a full moon, and flew arrows like meteors, and every arrow pounced on the enemy, like a trace of a grim smile of death.

After more than ten miles of running, more than 30 people had been shot dead by him, all of them were killed by one arrow, and gradually, the chasing Turkic cavalry began to hesitate, the degree of pursuit slowed down, and they were frightened by Li Zhen's magic arrow.

Li Zhen rushed to a sand dune, in the dazzling sunlight, his heart was filled with a kind of murderous pleasure, he slammed his bow away, Leng Sen's arrow pointed at the chasing Turks, his eyes narrowed.

Condescendingly, Li Zhen, who was scattered in a cloak, was like a god, with a string sound, a long arrow whistling, and a cavalryman at the front was shot through the head by an arrow, and fell off his horse with a scream.

The last dozen Turkic cavalry were finally frightened and turned around and fled, Li Zhen looked up to the sky and laughed, the taste of defeating the enemy was so enjoyable.

He turned his horse's head and sped his horse galloping towards Nanshan, at this time he was more worried about the situation in Dunhuang City and the safety of his eldest sister
