In the evening, the setting sun hung in the horizon, spreading soft and warm light throughout the entire Ulundu River.

The sky in the east was gradually darkening, forming a sharp contrast with the sky on the west with gorgeous sunset. In that dim direction, a large cavalry army suddenly appeared out of thin air, and was roaring towards the river bank with the sound of hooves.

The Turkic cavalry led by Deputy Marshal Mohadi, the commander of the Turkic Northern Camp, finally arrived.

According to the original plan, it was supposed to be the juncture of launching the general attack at this time, but Mohadi did not usher in the exciting scene of the expected killing. What he and his subordinates saw were all messes and ashes of flames.

"His grandma's! Could it be that the fight has been finished?!"

As Mohadi mumbled dissatisfiedly, the Turkic warriors who had already been aroused from blood and murderous intentions were suddenly felt a little disappointed. They rushed for a few days in a hurry, and finally, let alone the last one.

How could I not feel discouraged when I ate meat but didn’t even drink soup?

"The situation is a little wrong, Marshal," a guard pointed to the crowd cleaning the battlefield and said to Mohadi: "Why... why didn't you see the body?"

Mohadi was stunned when he heard this, squinted his eyes and looked carefully. Yes, not only was there no corpses everywhere in this battlefield, but he couldn't even smell the bloody smell that he was used to.

What's going on?

Mohadi was wondering, and suddenly saw a familiar figure riding from a distance. The man ran and shouted, "Hey, Mohadi, are you here?"

Mohadi looked closely and saw that the person who came was no one else, but his old rival in the Turkic army, another deputy marshal of the Turkic army, Marquis Durham.

Durham urged the horse to come closer, tied the reins, and hummed with dissatisfaction: "I said Mohadi, why did you arrive? He was slow and slow, just like a sissy!"

After hearing this, Mohadi immediately showed a look of disgust, couldn't help but curl his lips and snorted coldly.

The rift between these two people has actually been around for a long time.

Although they are both deputy marshals, Mohadi is completely different from Durham. Durham was born into a golden noble and was the cousin of the Temple Prince Ronya. In terms of blood relationship, he is also from the current Khan Ashinajin.

He is a relatively close relative of the same clan. Therefore, Durham is famously over-the-top and arrogant in the Turkic army. He does not give anyone any face except the Khan and the Prince.

Mohadi does not have the noble bloodline as Durham. He comes from a small tribe in the Turks and is from a humble background. He can have the power and status today entirely due to his own bloody battle on the battlefield, fighting with one sword and one shot

.

Because of this, Durham doesn't look down on Mohadi's humble identity, and Mohadi also looks down on Durham's nepotism. The two of them usually don't bite each other, and often argue with each other over trivial matters and are quarreling.

Get a deal.

Today, the two deputy marshals who despise each other met on the east bank of the Ulundu River. It was really a narrow road for enemies.

Seeing that Durham didn't give him any face as soon as he spoke, Mohadi couldn't help but feel angry and said in a deep voice: "Durham, what's going on here? Where is Li Jiangyao's remnants of the Holy Tang Army?"

Durham really wants to say, "Li Jiangyao has been killed by your uncle Durham!" in order to get angry with Mohadi, the "cold-faced ghost". However, the military situation is urgent, so there is no joke at the moment, let alone, because

After accidentally letting Li Jiangyao go, Durham was worried that Mohadi would catch the handle and went to the Prince of the Temple to sue himself. So, he quickly put away the ridiculous thoughts in his mind and said seriously: "I

Just as I was about to tell you about this, the army in the border fled!”

"Running?" Mohadi showed a cold smile on his face: "The war is imminent, how could they run away for no reason? Durham, could it be that your ugly appearance scared Li Jiangyao away?

Is it? Hahaha..."

Durham angrily heard this, "Bah, your stupid look is ugly! In my opinion, it is likely that your whereabouts are not secret and the news leaked, which caused the army to be afraid of escaping!"

Mohadi's face darkened and he retorted coldly: "Durham, don't make a mistake by yourself, but you put the shit on my head! The enemy slipped out from under your nose, even if it was a quarrel to His Royal Highness.

I'm afraid you won't take any more attention there!"

Durham is most afraid that the other party will be confused about this problem at this time, so he hurriedly covered up his fear and embarrassment, waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I won't talk to you these gossips. You should quickly rectify the team and follow the scouts along the way.

Mark and chase after him. Just two hours ago, Alikejiang had already led his troops to chase Li Jiangyao. You can support him now!"

Mohadi looked at the other party quietly, without any response to Durham's orders.

Seeing this, Durham couldn't help but get angry and shouted angrily: "Are you deaf? Why don't you act quickly?"

"Why do I obey your order?" Mohadi said coldly: "I, under the order of the Prince of the Temple, led my troops to attack thousands of miles. I rushed to the east bank of the Ulundu River this evening to cooperate with the Western Xinjiang coalition forces.

Attack the command center of the Xinjiang Army on both sides. From any angle, it is not up to you to control the command. According to the original plan, the Duolun patrol troops are responsible for attracting the main forces that restrain the enemy on the flanks, and you lead the Central Army of the Western Xinjiang,

Attacking the riverbank defense line head-on, dragging Li Jiangyao. My mission is to launch a raid from behind them. Now, you have let the army in the Xinjiang region go for nothing. If you miss the fighter and delay the prince's plan, why do you still pretend to behave

You pretend to be a big-tailed wolf and direct me to chase someone for you?"

Durham was speechless by Mohadi's words. After waiting for a long time, he said something: "What do you mean? Are you just watching the army escape? Do nothing.

?”

Mohadi pushed his helmet upwards with a horse whip, and said, "I want to do something. But what? How do you do it? Now I don't even know where the enemy has gone."

Durham said angrily: "That's why I asked you to follow the scout's signpost! Alikjiang pursued Li Jiangyao, leaving instructions along the way, you can go!"

"Speak lightly!" Mohadi sneered: "How long has Alikjiang been chasing? How far have you been going? What is the terrain of the battlefield over there? Is there an enemy city? Will you be ambushed?

I didn't know at all, so I'll go with you? I'm looking for you!"

-

"The whole army stopped!"

Alikjiang raised his right hand and called out to stop the army galloping all the way.

Since he discovered that Li Jiangyao led his army to retreat this morning, Alikjiang immediately led his troops to cross the Ulundu River according to Durham's instructions and urgently pursued the army in the border.

Because Princess Nanhua Huo Liya ordered her troops to set fire to the riverbank camp before setting off, which largely blocked the operations of the Western Xinjiang coalition. In addition, the incident was hasty, so the troops Alikejiang was able to mobilize at that time and

Not much.

The troops on both sides chased and fought along the way. After several twists and turns, a large number of infantry soldiers were left behind.

Currently, there are only more than 10,000 cavalrymen from various alliance countries who can stay by Alikejiang. Among them, Loulan soldiers account for most of them.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, and Li Jiangyao and the others were always two or three miles away from him, not far or near, and the meaning of intentional seduction became stronger and stronger. Alikejiang couldn't help but feel worried in his heart.

He asked the generals around him where he was now.

Several officers familiar with the terrain discussed it and then reported that their current location was about the northeast corner of Chechi Country, not far from the border of Shanshan Country.

"Zhenshan? Then where is Metasequoia City?" Alikjiang frowned and asked subconsciously.

An old officer replied: "Your Highness, in my opinion, Metasequoia City should be south of us, and it is about thirty miles away..."

Hearing this, Alikejiang couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, why are you getting worse and worse? Li Jiangyao and the others obviously aren't trying to escape back to Metasequoia."

Metasequoia City belongs to Chechi Country City. It was originally located fifty miles east of Pansong Ferry, but now it is located south of the Alike River, which means they have been chasing them all day and have been following Li Jiangyao toward Li Jiangyao.

The northeast moves, so Alikejiang says that he is getting worse and worse.

The generals under his command were also suspicious and alerted him, and they all advised Alikjiang: "Your Highness, as the saying goes, don't chase the enemy. We are rushing through the journey today, and we are getting further and further away from the main force.

If you fall into the ambush of the army in the border, it will be troublesome! Why not give up and stop the troops as soon as possible."

In fact, Alikjiang was also thinking that. Compared with his life, Durham instructed him to bite Li Jiangyao's command center with all his strength, which was simply insignificant.

"Damn! The Holy Tang barbarians have always been tricky. It is unwise to chase after us so stupidly when we are so dark." Alikjiang nodded slightly and ordered: "Let's do this for now. Anyway, Metasequoia City is not possible.

We grow legs and run away. When the Turkic elite commanded by General Mohadi arrives, it is not too late to find trouble for Li Jiangyao! We will pass on my order, and the whole army will turn back, gather the fallen soldiers along the way, and return to the camp for dinner.

Rest."

With Alikjiang's order, the entire pursuit troops felt relieved, pulled the reins, turned their horses' heads, and prepared to set off and return.

However, just when Alikejiang and his subordinates were about to urge the horse to leave, they had been chasing them and could not stop escaping from the distance, and suddenly turned around and ran back. Two thousand Zhenjiang were scattered.

The Metasequoia Knight roared and stopped directly at a distance of less than a few hundred steps from the Alik River.
Chapter completed!
