The violent shaking woke Li Xun up from his sleep.

Sitting up, Li Xun looked around with confused eyes, only to see Jiang Daxiong standing beside the bed with an anxious look on his face.

"What happened?"

Jiang Daxiong said anxiously: "Boss, the Tubo people are coming. General Mao Anfu has led five thousand cavalry to fight. General Shanqiu is gathering his troops and is preparing to go to support them."

ah!

Damn it, how did Tubo come here?

Li Xun was shocked and jumped out of bed. He quickly put on his armor, took his weapons and rushed out of the tent. One hundred soldiers were already mounted and ready, waiting for Li Xun's arrival.

"Let's go, hurry up and meet General Shanqiu."

Li Xun got on his horse, roared, mounted his horse and ran several miles away. Danqiu led four thousand infantry and had advanced to twenty miles away. There was chaos all around. The people woke up from their sleep and learned that Tubo

When the army arrived, they were so distraught that they packed their bags and began to flee under the leadership of a thousand soldiers.

Two quarters of an hour later, they finally caught up with Shan Qiu. Li Xun shouted his name and the team made way for him to enter.

Li Xun rushed into the center of the infantry formation. The commander's flag was there and Shanqiu was there. His face was extremely heavy and his eyes were fixed on the distance. In order to delay time, Mao Anfu led five thousand cavalry and took the initiative to attack. It was night now

, I don’t know how many people there are on the other side. I’m afraid it will be dangerous for Mao Anfu to go.

"Shanqiu, what's going on? I heard that Tibet is coming with a surprise attack?"

Li Xun rode up to Shan Qiu and asked loudly.

Shan Qiu looked at Li Xun, told the situation, and then pursed his lips tightly. He and Mao Anfu were close friends of life and death. They usually treated each other as brothers. Now, good brothers fight each other desperately, not knowing life or death. Shan Qiu

The feeling of hatred can be imagined.

An hour ago, the scouts discovered a large group of cavalry coming this way. Although it was dark and could not see clearly the other party's attire, this army came at night without even saying hello. It was definitely not one of our own.

Since they are not one of their own, it can only be the Tubo people who came to kill them. When Mao Anfu and Shanqiu learned the news, the other party was already nearly seventy miles away. There was no defense in the four states and it was a plain.

Take the initiative to challenge.

Shan Qiu and Mao Anfu refused to give up on the people and fled alone. In this case, they could only fight each other desperately to buy as much time as possible for the people to escape.

Mao Anfu gathered 5,000 cavalry from his headquarters and killed the opponent. After Shanqiu gathered 5,000 infantry from his headquarters, he separated a thousand men to guide the people to escape, and then led the troops on a rapid march to support Mao Anfu.

After Li Xun heard this, he immediately became nervous. The other party must have come prepared for the surprise attack at this time. The battle tonight would probably be a disaster.

Shan Qiu glanced at Li Xun, saw the look on his face, and said softly: "Li Xun, why don't you lead the people to Zhike County, inform the Governor of the situation here, and ask for support?"

With such a big matter, how could Shanqiu not send people to Zhike County for help immediately? The reason why he said this was just to give himself a step to escape.

Li Xun hesitated for a moment, then looked up at Shan Qiu. The expression on his face was sincere, without any disdain or ridicule. Li Xun's heart suddenly surged with passion.

"Brother Shan, we agreed to share adversity together. Now that the enemy is in front of us, as a general, how can I leave alone?"

Shanqiu nodded and said no more.

"Brother Shan, will Brother Mao be okay?"

Already approaching the battlefield, Li Xun stared ahead. They were now on a higher ground, and at the farthest end of their field of vision, they could faintly see some fire.

"There are only 20,000 people on the other side, so there is nothing we can do about Mao Anfu for a while."

Shan Qiu shook his head. The 5,000 cavalrymen in Mao Anfu's hands were elites from hundreds of battles and had extremely strong fighting power. Although Tubo was several times stronger than him, it would be difficult to eliminate him in a short period of time.

In the dark night, hundreds of cavalry suddenly came galloping from the left direction, several miles away, with several tall white flags with large letters of horse written on them.

"General, the reinforcements from the Grand Governor have arrived."

The white flag looked very eye-catching in the dark night, and the bright moon was shining brightly tonight. The soldiers all saw clearly the big horse character on the flag, and they suddenly became excited.

Li Xun frowned. In less than an hour, how could Ma Wu's reinforcements come so quickly?

"The whole army is on alert. Don't be careless. Be careful of fraud."

Sure enough, Shan Qiu was not happy at all. Instead, his expression darkened and he issued an order loudly.

"A battalion of archers ready!"

When the cavalry rushed two miles away, Shanqiu raised his hand, roared, and waved fiercely: "Shoot!"

The distance of two miles is obviously beyond the effective attack range of the archers. This is to deter the opponent. If he is really one of his own, he will definitely not continue to move forward.

A battalion of five hundred archers fired a volley of bows, cutting through the darkness and raining arrows. The cavalry stopped a mile away, while the top ten cavalry continued to charge towards this side.

More than a dozen people did not pose much of a threat. Danqiu shouted loudly: "Let them get close and don't attack."

"I am Liu Xuanji, and I am one of our own."

The leading cavalryman shouted loudly and announced his name.

Liu Xuanji is the commander of Ma Wu's personal soldiers, why did he come here?

"General Li, General Shan, and the last general are familiar with Liu Xuanji, so they can go and argue whether they are true or false."

A lieutenant came to Li Xun and Shan Qiu, clasped his fists and said.

Shan Qiu immediately said: "If it weren't for Liu Xuanji, he would be detained immediately and not let go."

"The last general takes orders."

Zhonglang turned around and strode away. After a while, he led a man in his thirties to Shanqiu.

Liu Xuanji was the commander of Ma Wu's personal soldiers and guarded him all day long. Li Xun also met him several times. Looking carefully, he found that this person was Liu Xuanji.

Before Shanqiu could speak, Li Xun asked urgently: "General Liu, why did you come here?"

Liu Xuanji clasped his fists and said: "General Li Xun, the Governor has ordered you to lead the army and hold on to this place to attract the Tibetan army. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to leave even half a step."

"General Liu, please speak clearly."

Li Xun frowned and told himself to stick to this place and always tell a purpose.

Liu Xuanji smiled and said: "Don't worry, General Li. General Zhao Chi has been leading 20,000 cavalry in the past few days, following you three hundred miles away, just to be prepared for the Tibetan attack. Now he is one hundred miles away and is heading towards

Come here, General Li only needs to lead the army and hold on for an hour, and great things can be accomplished!"
