Shen Xiangdong put away his thoughts and nodded when he heard this: "This is the only way. Xirong has been operating here for a long time. Our army cannot stay here for a long time. We will be criticized by the public. It would be better to return to the camp as soon as possible. If our troops can be of the same mind as General Di, We agree that today’s victory may not be an opportunity for our army to regain Dizhou.”
Li Luo sighed softly, looked at the ground under his feet, and said nothing. At this time, Chi Li and Ding Zhan rushed over, saluted and said: "General, sir, the money, food and weapons in the camp have been counted. Our army Get ready and ready to break camp at any time."
Li Luo looked at the sky and saw that it was time to march at night. Li Luo asked Chi Li and Ding Zhan: "How are the soldiers resting?"
"Don't worry, the general has many instructions. Let's take turns to let the brothers rest. There will be no problem in rushing for eight hundred miles." Ding Zhan hurriedly replied.
Li Luo snorted and said, "Raise the troops and pull out the camp."
"General, where are the camps and the remaining soldiers of Xirong?" Chi Li asked respectfully.
Li Luo paused for a moment, looking at the dark night outside the camp, as if there was a giant beast hidden in the wild, quietly peeping at the tens of thousands of soldiers in the camp.
Li Luo said calmly: "Set the camp on fire, and burn all the food and grass that cannot be taken away. Xirong soldiers," Li Luo paused slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Kill, cover the body with a tent, don't let the vultures and jackals Take it away and leave the whole body for them."
Huchajing swallowed a sip of saliva, received the order and was about to go forward. Li Luo called him, got on his horse and said, "I'll go with you. The other generals have organized their troops and prepared torches."
All the generals received their orders and prepared to go.
Li Luo and Huchajing galloped towards the remnants of the Xirong army on horseback. They heard the sound of horse hoofbeats from behind. When they looked back, they saw it was Hucha Dongchan.
Huchajing frowned and said, "What are you doing here? Go back!"
Hucha Dongchan ignored his brother and said directly to Li Luo: "General, I want to go too."
Li Luo watched Hucha Dongchan flicking a few long strands in front of his eyes with his hand, and suddenly felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, which instantly penetrated his heart. The pain made Li Luo feel as if his heart had stopped.
Li Luo took a deep breath. At this time, all the ladies in the royal city were enjoying the lanterns, or laughing and playing together. Li Luo thought lazily, but this beautiful woman in front of him was riding on the yellow sand of the Western Region. Running in the middle, watching the bloody storm.
Li Luo turned his head hurriedly without saying anything. He picked up the reins of his horse and took a step forward.
The Hucha brothers and sisters were all stunned, wondering what Li Luo meant. Hucha Dongchan laughed and ran past Huchajing. Huchajing had no choice but to follow Hucha Dongchan's temper.
Hearing the sound of horse hoofbeats, Ning'erfeng opened his eyes and used the lit torch to see clearly that it was Li Luo and Huchajing.
And the female general who just laughed at her sighed and said: "Is the time up?" Her voice was low and desolate, showing the tiredness of a hero in his twilight years.
"General Ning'er, we each have our own lord. Things are unpredictable, so I offended you." Li Luo waved his hand and was about to shoot an arrow when he heard Ning'erfeng ask: "General Li, in the battle at Xingfeng Valley, can you? Do you have a plan?"
Li Luo was silent for a moment and said softly: "No, it's all Mr. Shen and General Liu's plan."
Ning Erfeng laughed heartily. Before his laughter stopped, Li Luo shouted in a deep voice: "Fire the arrow!"
The remnants of the Xirong soldiers rushed out in all directions, but they were all blocked by the Mu Tianlang soldiers. After several rounds of arrows, thousands of Xirong soldiers fell to the ground.
Ning'erfeng sat on the ground without moving. He was stabbed by dozens of arrows and died. However, his eyes were wide open, showing his unwillingness.
The Mu Tianlang soldier next to him walked in and gave the Xirong soldiers who were still gasping for air a blow. In a moment, the people who were alive just now turned into a pile of cold corpses.
Hucha Dongchan was never afraid of fighting in battle, but this was the first time he killed these helpless soldiers. In an instant, blood had penetrated the camp.
Hucha Dongchan exhaled a few breaths and stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead. Although it was cold, he was covered in fragrant sweat.
Hucha Dongchan looked back at his brother and Li Luo, both of whom looked calm.
Li Luo ordered Mu Tianlang's soldiers to cover up the body, and it was not long before they had packed it up. Thousands of soldiers had been killed, but no one was left alive.
When they left the camp, Hucha Dongcicada was silent for a while and didn't speak.
Huchajing was quite worried, but didn't know how to speak. He looked at Li Luo several times, but Li Luo seemed to have something on his mind and was completely unaware of anything strange happening around him.
Only less than half of the torches were lit in the army, and all the soldiers could hear was the dull sound of horse hooves. The soldiers all made no sound, and the whole army retreated towards Shahu Lake.
Halfway through the march, they had not yet left the Dizhou border. Li Luo and the others said nothing along the way.
The army was moving quickly, when suddenly the spies from the forward camp turned sharply and shouted loudly from a few feet away: "General, there are Xirong cavalry twenty miles ahead on the left wing. They can't see the flags clearly. There are about ten thousand in number."
Huchajing raised his hand, and the guards beside him hurriedly passed the news and slowed down the march.
Li Luo raised his eyebrows and said to himself: "It came so fast."
Huchajing hurried a few steps forward and asked: "General, Master Shen, should our army meet the enemy or avoid them?"
Shen Xiangdong said nothing and looked at Li Luo with his whiskers.
Li Luo looked at the ridges and valleys in the distance, and said slowly: "The army slows down. Let's go see Commander Zuo of Xirong."
Shen Xiangdong smiled and said, "Has General Li already expected Qiang Xingzhi to come?"
"I guessed it, but I didn't expect him to come so quickly. Coming across the river, Xirong's cavalry could only number in the tens of thousands at most. With their troops and horses so tired, I, Mu Tianlang, would fight him several times. If the Qiang's journey is dangerous,
, Why should we fight a war? Send the order, unload the excess weapons, money and food, and put the army on alert. If Xirong does not send troops within ten miles, we will fight!"
"I will obey the order." All the generals cheered up and replied in unison.
Hucha Jing and Ding Zhan hurriedly went to the army to convey orders, and Mu Tianlang's army slowed down its march and gathered momentum to cover the front.
The two armies had been close to each other for nearly ten miles. Li Luo was about to send an order to the whole army to light up their torches and charge with light cavalry. Suddenly, the scouts in front of them hurriedly reported back, and another group of cavalry appeared directly in front, numbering nearly ten thousand.
Li Luo and Shen Xiangdong's expressions changed, and they didn't know who was coming.
Li Luo sent another general order, ordering the army to light up their torches, line up in formation, and be on strict alert.
Chi Li solemnly said: "General, the way forward is cut off. If our army wants to return to camp, we have to rush over. This Qiang army is really amazing. In such a hurry, it can actually divide its troops to intercept our army. The Xirong cavalry is indeed
Well-deserved reputation.”
Li Luo frowned and shouted in a deep voice: "Try again!"
The vanguard approached the horse, saluted, and galloped away. Shen Xiangdong looked thoughtful and replied: "General Li, who do you think is coming?"
Li Luozhu looked to the left and saw the shadows of torches all over the mountain. It was as if the stars in the sky were reflected on the desolate mountains and rivers. The army in front did not move at all, but moved towards Mu Tian unhurriedly.
The wolf approaches.
The army on the left paused for a moment, the torches slowly gathered together, but the army stopped.
Shen Xiangdong's heart moved. He and Li Luo looked at each other and said in surprise: "Could it be that General Liu is here?"
Li Luo nodded slightly and said, "Mr. Shen, you have forgotten someone."
Shen Xiangdong muttered: "In this Xifu, apart from Qiang Xingzhi and I, Mu Tianlang, that's..."
