Xie Tong smiled bitterly and said, "I'm afraid it's too late, our cavalry itself is like the Turkic wolf army, and with so many carriages, the marching general is greatly discounted, and when leaving Ezina City, Yeluqi said on the surface that he could accept us, but in fact, even they don't dare to provoke the Turkic wolf army, otherwise they will be faced with this naked frame-up, why do they choose to be silent! This time, I'm afraid it will be up to us to settle it ourselves!"

Li Zheng's eyes suddenly widened and said, "In this case, we will fight to the end, even if we die, we will gnaw off a piece of the enemy's flesh!" His eyes revealed an incomparably decisive meaning, and Xie Tong, who saw it, was stunned in his heart.

Xie Tong said, "Okay, with the words of the prince, the last general already has the confidence to defeat the enemy, as long as he enters the desert." No matter how many of them have three heads and six arms, they will not want to capture us alive. I'm going to set it up!"

"Slow down", Li Zheng stopped him, and said meaningfully, "General Xie, you are better at marching and fighting than this king, and this king will appoint you as the supreme commander of the whole army, including this king, everyone must obey your orders, if there is a disobedience, cut first and then play, go!"

Xie Tong turned around, he looked at King Wu gratefully, what a trust, at this time, the lives of the 20,000 horses of the whole army were all pressed on his shoulders, but he knew that this was not the time to be hypocritical, so he knelt down and said respectfully, "That is, knowing the enemy's plan, the final general will definitely live up to the trust of the prince, and this battle will be done with all his might."

With that, he turned and walked out of the camp.

Xie Tong walked out of King Wu's camp, immediately gathered all the commanders of the army, and urgently assembled in King Wu's camp.

King Wu briefly described the seriousness of the situation and said, "At this moment, Xie Tong is the supreme commander of the whole army and is responsible for all military operations of the whole army."

All the leaders wilted, they had long heard of the ferocity of the Turkic wolf army, compared to Xue Yantuo's horse thieves, this time in the face of such a dangerous dilemma, it was already a luxury to leave alive, and many people began to miss their parents, wives and children in their hometown, and their emotions dropped directly to the freezing point.

Xie Tong said, "Leaders, this time we are facing the Turkic wolf army that dominates the grassland, although we are at a disadvantage in all aspects, however, for the dignity of the empire, for the sake of whether the prince can return to the Central Plains safely, even if it is death, we must fight bravely." You have been in the army for many years, have you ever thought about how many Han compatriots died in this land, how many ancestors fought and sacrificed for it, this thing that originally belonged to us, has now become a topic of conversation for the enemy to show off, do you want to take it back, do you want to be ashamed, do you want to carve your name on the monument of the empire!".

"Think", the words of the commanders Xie Tong awakened the passion.

Xie Tong continued, "Okay, it is worthy of being a soldier led by the prince, and he is responsible. Now I will make arrangements, and the prince will lead 3,000 men and horses to escort supplies and women and children, and march to the desert according to the established route, and set off at the right time. ”

King Wu stood up, hugged his fists and said, "Get the order".

Xie Tong said again: "Shen Huwei, you lead 5,000 men and horses, set off with the prince, and ambush fifty miles away from here, remember to bring enough gunpowder! ”

Shen Huwei was Li Zheng's personal guard, and he got up and said, "Order."

Xie Tong said, "The other leaders led the soldiers and horses of the headquarters, prepared five days of food, grass and drinking water, threw away all sundries, and guarded the camp."

All the staff stood up and said, "Order!"

Xie Tong saw the appearance of unity, and said with a smile: "Everyone, go down and prepare!"

And they all withdrew.

Xie Tong casually grabbed a young commander and asked, "What do you call it!"

The commander respectfully said, "My name is Guan Yong."

Xie Tong smiled mysteriously and said, "You go and collect all the gunpowder of the whole army, and be ready to listen to Hou's orders at any time, don't let others know!"

Guan Yong hesitated for a moment, and then walked out of the camp after saying "obey!"

After everyone left, Li Zheng said, "Looking at your confident appearance, it seems that you are sure to win this battle!"

Xie Tong sighed and said, "Whether we can win or not depends on the will of heaven, if the Turkic wolf army is careless, we have hope of winning." It's not early, the prince rests! There may be a fierce battle tomorrow. ”

Xie Tong walked to the door of the camp tent and suddenly said, "Please don't tell Princess Shi about this."

Li Zheng smiled and nodded.

Xie Tong left the camp, he didn't plan to inform Hong Shan and Cai Wei and others about this, because this battle was not certain, if he lost, it would be a certain death, they were all affectionate and righteous women, Xie Tong didn't want these beloved women to be buried with him, it was best to follow King Wu and arrive in Mobei safely.

Xie Tong suddenly wanted to see Hong Shan and Cai Wei, it was a desire from his heart, maybe after tomorrow, he would never see them again.

Thinking of this, Xie Tong walked quickly to the second daughter's tent.

The lights of the tent were on, and instead of saying hello, he walked straight inside.

Cai Wei was changing clothes, and when she saw him coming, she let out a burst of exclamations in fright. With a wave of her left hand, a copper coin flew straight towards Xie Tong.

Xie Tong quickly caught the copper coin, and said in a low voice, "What's the fuss, I came here to steal incense and jade." After that, a pair of thief eyes looked straight at Cai Wei's body, she was only wearing a short shirt on her upper body at the moment, leaking her arms and navel, looking very charming.

Cai Wei hurriedly covered her navel and said unhappily, "Look down, this girl gouges out your eyes!"

Hong Shan had already laid down and said with a smile, "It's not that you're stealing incense and stealing jade, it's what you're here to do, is it chatting with us?"

Xie Tong took advantage of the situation, hugged Hong Shan tightly and said, "As long as you go here, you can do anything!"

Cai Wei said angrily, "Dead boy, what are you going to do?

Xie Tong saw her pleading in a low voice for the first time, obviously frightened by him, he was very amused, and hurriedly smiled, "Shan'er, you tell Cai Wei, what am I here to do!"

Hong Shan spat on him and said, "You head full of messy things, who knows what you think?"

Xie Tong smiled and said, "Since the two of you don't know, I have to tell you with practical actions!" With that, he took off his long shirt, threw it aside, and pressed his hands on his pants.

Hong Shan blindfolded her eyes in shame.

Cai Wei couldn't care about leaving, so she hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and said, "Hooligan, how can I, Shang Caiwei, know someone like you." ”

Xie Tong said, "Isn't this a perfect match for a rogue to a female snitch?"

Cai Wei was speechless for a while, not knowing what to say, and the scene was very embarrassing.

Xie Tong let go of his hands and said softly, "Sit down, okay?" I just want to talk to you!"

Cai Wei saw that there was an indescribable anger between his eyebrows, knowing that he was smiling and laughing, and she was embarrassed to refuse, so she sat down beside him, but always remained vigilant.

Hong Shan also noticed this and asked, "Brother Tong, what happened!"

Xie Tong thought for a while, and lied, "I have a secret discussion with the prince, and immediately divide the troops into two routes, all the way to the desert, all the way to defend against the enemy, I will arrange for you to set off with the prince to the desert, and the plan is scheduled to leave at the time of the child."

Cai Wei smiled, "Ha, where is the enemy this time!"

Without waiting for Xie Tong to answer, Hong Shan said, "I'm not going, I want to be with you."

Xie Tong turned his face and said, "Shan'er is obedient, just a few thieves, they have been following us since they left Ezina City, and the prince plans to clean them up before entering the desert and do a good deed for the merchants who come and go." ”

Cai Wei said: "Then why are you marching in a hurry!"

Hong Shan said, "Since this is the case, it is not a big deal for Shan'er to stay."

Xie Tong was in trouble in his heart, Hong Shan was not as easy to deceive as Cai Wei, he pretended to be unhappy and said, "Don't listen to me, Lao Tzu wants you to look good! This is what the prince meant." Rest assured! I'll chase after you. ”

Hong Shan rolled her cute big eyes, and suddenly smiled, "Okay, we're waiting for you in the desert, don't be late."

Xie Tong always felt that Hong Shan's promise was too painful, which seemed unreasonable, but since she agreed, it was not good to say anything else, he stood up, put on a long robe, and said, "Night! Rest early, I have to hurry tomorrow!"

The two girls showed disappointment at the same time, Xie Tong wanted to stay and feast, but she still relented, turned around and walked out of the tent.

He went to his tent with blood in his heart, and perhaps tomorrow he would never see these two beloved girls again.

At this moment, he really wanted to turn around and walk back to enjoy this last carnival, but if this way, the two girls would definitely see the clues, maybe they would not leave obediently, he wanted them to live well.

Thinking of this, Xie Tong quickened his pace, and as soon as he walked to his tent, he suddenly became alert.

There seemed to be a person in his tent, which felt very real, but when he checked it with his spiritual sense, he found no trace or breath of the person.

But Xie Tong was uneasy, what kind of feeling was born from the heart, it was very real, and he doubted his spiritual consciousness for the first time. Busy with the fluctuation of all things, he leaned into the tent, and sure enough, a man was sitting on a chair in the tent, waiting for him to enter.

Xie Tong knew that the person who came was not an idle person, at least he was not inferior to him in martial arts cultivation, who would this person be!

Xie Tong cheered up, lifted the curtain and walked in.

Through the light of flesh, Xie Tong saw a tall man looking at him with wide eyes.

This person's gaze was like a torch, shooting out two rays of light like two gems, and Xie Tong knew that it was a manifestation of profound skill.

This person laughed hesitantly and said, "General Xie really didn't disappoint the old man, even if the old man deliberately hid his breath, he was still detected by you!"

Xie Tong didn't expect this person to be so straightforward, he smiled and said, "The predecessor is too famous, dare to ask the predecessor how to call it!"

The old man sneered and said, "The old man's name is Chongli, I wonder if the general has heard of it?"

Five days ago, Xie Tong must not have known this person, but now it is different, this is the second time he has heard this name in seven days, this person is the national teacher of ******, Chongli, who is known as the five masters of the grassland, Xie Tong was shocked, he knew that Chongli was here, and the wolf army of the ****** must be not far away, which was completely consistent with his guess!

Xie Tong smiled and said, "The name of the seniors is like thunder, how can the juniors not know, dare to ask the seniors why they came here late at night!"

Chongli said, "Although the old man is far away, he has always heard about the glorious deeds of the general in the Central Plains, and he thinks that after tomorrow, he will have no chance to fight against the general, and it is a big regret in life to not be able to see the general's kung fu, so I came here tonight to ask for advice!"

In the face of Chongli's naked threat, Xie Tong was unmoved, and he smiled and said, "Is the national teacher overestimating the strength of the Turkic Wolf Army, my tens of thousands of troops in the Tang Dynasty are not so easy to bully!"

Chongli continued to let out his eerie laughter, and said, "This time, you will definitely have no chance, the Great Khan has already given an order, except for Murowei, the entire Saiwai will be your enemies, including the Khitans, if you don't believe it, you can go back and see if the Khitans will let you pass, and, even if you are lucky enough to enter the desert, there are still Xue Yantuo's horse thieves waiting for you, and on the other side of the desert, there are Tiele, Heishui Jing and the others are waiting, it can be said that since you left Ezina City, you have lost the opportunity, after dealing with you, the old man will personally lead the army and besiege your troops."

With that, he laughed grimly.

Xie Tong was stunned in his heart, at this moment he wanted to inform Li Zheng immediately, flee as far as he could, but now Chongli was watching from the sidelines, he would never give him this opportunity, what he wanted to do was to defeat this strong enemy first, stay here, attract firepower to Li Zheng, and let him reach Murowei safely. As for the horse thieves in the desert and the enemies in Mobei, he was powerless, and Li Zheng could only ask for more blessings.

Xie Tong put away all kinds of worries, in the face of such a powerful enemy, he must not be distracted at this moment, if he is defeated, it will be a mortal situation, if he dies, no one can drag the Turkic wolf army, Wu Wang and the others will have no hope of survival, the difference is only in whose hands they died! He smiled and said, "Since the national teacher values the younger generation so much, how can Xie not let the national teacher down, make a move!"

Chongli was secretly surprised, he had planned to use words to stimulate and intimidate this young man, so that the thoughts of fear appeared in his heart, so that he could kill him with one blow, but how did he expect this young man to be so calm, which was beyond his expectations.

He smiled and didn't make a sound, and both of them looked at each other silently, waiting for each other's flaws.

About a stick of incense passed, and neither of them made a move.

Xie Tong liked this very much, after all, if he delayed for a moment, he would have more possibility of escaping. On the contrary, he was not in a hurry.

Chongli was also quite surprised to see that Xie Tong was calm, this young man's power was beyond his imagination.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a rallying horn outside, followed by the sound of the carriage, and it was clear that the army was about to set off and was making full preparations in advance.

Chongli was stunned, he didn't know what was going on outside, and he wanted to find out.

Seeing that he was distracted, Xie Tong hurriedly lifted his true qi, and his shadowless finger shot out directly, and a fierce true qi shot straight towards Chongli.

Chongli reacted very quickly, his body suddenly leaned back, and his face crossed with true anger, hitting the pillar behind him, and with a bang, the wooden pillar supporting the camp was directly pierced through a hole.

How could Xie Tong let go of this excellent opportunity, his figure rushed forward violently, and one palm went straight towards Chongli's chest, and then under the strange fast body of the whirlwind footwork, he arrived in front of Chongli in the blink of an eye. (To be continued.) )
