Cai Die said to the others: "If you are willing to resist with me, follow me into the city, and if you are unwilling, retreat to Pingliang Town and wait there." ”

Xuan Zhen was the first to stand up and said, "Little monk joins." Then Shadow, Yan Ziling, Xue Ling'er and the others all agreed.

Only Situ Lightning, Long Zhidi and Bai Wuchang were left.

Everyone looked at the three of them, and Situ Lightning spoke first: "Actually, the two of us don't want to cause more trouble, since you want to wade into this troubled water, I'm afraid it will take a while here, so I have to sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman, but I advise you not to be too reckless and impulsive, after all, the Tatar savages are not so easy to deal with." ”

Cai Die said: "You can rest assured of this, we have our own measure, of course, our purpose of this trip is still the same, if there are Tatars outside to block, we will not be able to complete the task, and repelling the Tatars has also become part of our task." ”

Then he said to Bai Wuchang: "You just need to follow obediently and bless Xuanzhen all the way, otherwise, you have to bury us together." ”

Bai Wuchang was very helpless, and said: "Anyway, both horizontal and vertical are dead, do I have any other choice?"

Cai Die said: "Let's enter the city, please ask this soldier to take us to meet the generals who defend the city. ”

The soldier said, "Please come with me." ”

The soldier went into the city with a few men to meet the general who was in charge of the army.

The walls here are heavily guarded, and they need to be reported layer by layer before they finally ascend to the city walls.

When the soldier saw the general, he immediately knelt down and said, "Report to General He, the Central Plains Sect sent the Five Righteous Heroes Alliance Shang Caidie and others to ask to see him." ”

I saw that this General He was more than seven feet tall, burly, and majestic, and turned around when he heard the report. After a closer look, he found that he had the color of a sixtieth birthday, but his complexion was very good, and his eyes were bright, but he could see from the dark circles under his eyes and the dust that had accumulated on the edge of his helmet, that he seemed to have been standing here for a long time, and that he was slightly tired.

Seeing a few people, he immediately bowed his hand and said: "He Huchen, the general of Ningxia Chongguan Town, has seen you. ”

Shang Caidie stepped forward and arched his hand: "General He, I have admired the name for a long time, we are members of the Five Righteous Heroes Alliance, Shaolin Temple Xuanzhen, Guigu Shadow, Xue Ling'er, and Yan Ziling are all from the Jade Maiden Sect, these two Situ Lightning and Long Zhidi are from the Candle Dragon Sect, and this other... It's our followers. ”

General He nodded politely and said, "Shaolin Temple and the Jade Girl Sect have survived?" are all famous factions on the rivers and lakes, as for the others, I really haven't heard of them, but I don't know what you want to see?"

Shang Caidie continued: "We were supposed to get out of the customs, but unfortunately it was difficult to get out? I heard that it was a Tatar invasion, so we wanted to help the general? ”

General He laughed and said: "Although you are a famous faction, what kind of Five Righteous Chivalry Alliance, listening to this chivalrous alliance, you can guess that you are also chivalrous and righteous people? It's just that things in the rivers and lakes are different from wars? There are hundreds of thousands of people here, and more than millions of enemies and enemies are fighting against us, but it is not child's play, you look so young, I am afraid you don't know how dangerous the war is, your kindness is understood by the general, but you still wait in the city, waiting for me to repel these wild species." ”

After that, he turned around to send off the guests.

Shang Caidie said: "General, as the saying goes, the rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, we are actually greedy for life and afraid of death, you can rest assured, please ask the general to give instructions if it is useful, we will definitely live up to the trust." ”

General He saw that his intention was resolute, so he had to turn around again, look at them and say, "You guys come here." ”

Then a few people walked up to General He, who turned around and looked into the distance outside the city.

Several people also followed the general's gaze into the distance, this can become a key pass, it does have its natural geographical advantages, both sides are high mountains and cliffs, and to pass the pass, this is the place that must be passed.

In the distance, a piece of black oppression can be seen, which seems to be the army of the Tatar tribe.

General He said: "See, there is an army of 600,000 troops of the Tatar tribe, and their leader is called Lin Dan Khan, nicknamed the King of the Steppe, who invaded all the way here from outside the Saiwai. ”

Another soldier next to him said: "This time, the Tatar tribe is raising the strength of the whole clan to invade the Central Plains in one fell swoop." ”

General He said: "This is Adjutant General Ma Shilong. ”

Everyone said: "I've seen Deputy General Ma." ”

Ma Shilong also bowed his hand and said: "Everyone, today is the third attack of the Tatar tribe, the first two have been repelled by us, but the morale of its army is high, and its spirit needs to be thwarted today." ”

General He said: "That's right, we just need to stick to this place, their long soldiers can't afford to consume, and after frustrating their sharpness, they can be broken one by one." ”

At this moment, a scout rushed up and said, "Report, urgent military report, please take a look." ”

As soon as the words were finished, the man knelt down not far from the general and presented an urgent message.

General Ma took the urgent text and forwarded it to General He.

General He opened it and saw that his face changed instantly, and his eyes opened slightly, which was obviously bad news.

Deputy General Ma took the urgent text, unfolded it, and exclaimed: "Blue wolf and white deer, shaman wizard." ”

Shang Caidie said: "What is the blue wolf and white deer, shaman?"

Bai Wuchang interjected: "I don't know, the blue wolf, that is, the Cangyuan wolf, is a legendary mythical beast of the Mongolian people, in the extremely cold region further north, there is also this kind of beast in the Rakshasa country, named Snow Wolf, which is huge in size and easy to tame." ”

Cai Die said: "I remember, during the battle of Shaolin Temple, the Divine Tiger Gang released three snowfield giant wolves. ”

Adjutant General Ma said: "Three? According to the scout's report, the Tatar tribe has prepared three hundred wolfwolves this time. ”

Cai Die exclaimed: "Three hundred? At that time, all three were extremely difficult to deal with. ”

Adjutant General Ma said, "There are still three hundred white deer." ”

Bai Wuchang said: "The white deer is the name of the shaman, in fact, in the Mongolian tribe, there is a kind of red deer, which is huge, much bigger than the wolf, with infinite strength, running, extremely fast, its horns are extremely hard, and it can penetrate the iron armor. ”

Adjutant Ma said: "That's right, there are also shamans, who are the most difficult to deal with. ”

Cai Die said: "Shaman, we have seen the Wushan Witch Clan in the Miao Xinjiang area, there is a black mage, named Black Blood Brand, whose witchcraft is extremely terrifying. ”

Adjutant Ma said: "Shamans are different, extremely mysterious, good at healing, as long as these savages are not killed, they can quickly heal them through the mysterious vine technique, as if absorbing the power of plants and trees, and moreover, they can control these blue wolves and white deer through shaman drums, and give them powerful natural powers." ”

Bai Wuchang said: "I used to think that this was just a legend outside the Saiwai, but I didn't expect that the Tatar tribe had already trained so much secretly, and it seemed that it was completely sure that it could gather a million troops and kill all the way here." I advise you that hundreds of blue wolves and white deer are invading, and I am afraid that it will be more than lucky. Bai Wuchang's tone was more contemptuous, as if he was gloating.

General He and Adjutant General Ma immediately looked displeased.

General He said: "This brother Tai spoke so lightly and disturbed the morale of the army, he could have immediately punished you for the crime of alarmism." Bai Wuchang immediately didn't dare to say more.

Shang Caidie hurriedly said: "I hope that the general will forgive me, and I will definitely discipline my subordinates well." ”

Then he said to Bai Wuchang: "From now on, you shut up and don't say another word." ”8)
