Some people have already made arrangements for matters in the capital.

But after all, Huang Tinghui still felt uneasy about leaving the little girl and Lu Qiaosi behind.

Fortunately, Lu Qiaosi's grandparents will arrive in the capital in a day or two.

With Lu Qiaosi's grandparents here, Huang Tinghui doesn't have to worry about the little girl and Lu Qiaosi.

Huang Tinghui and Tang Zihu bought two horses, rode them, took dry food and water and went straight to Datong Town.

At the same time, under the powerful offensive of the grassland barbarians, Dasheng Kingdom's northern defense line was penetrated several times.

Many prairie barbarians have already entered the territory of Dasheng Kingdom.

"Brother Li!"

"Can't hold on anymore, can't hold on anymore!"

"There are only a dozen of us left. If the fight continues, we may be completely wiped out!"

In his first confrontation with the prairie barbarians, Li Dingguo once relied on his extremely superb shooting skills to shoot a prairie barbarian general off his horse.

That scene really shocked these prairie barbarians, but after that, the prairie barbarians launched an extremely crazy attack on Jiacheng Pass.

Although the soldiers defending the city fought back bravely, the number of grassland barbarians was too great.

Even if they kill to the point where the sword is curled and the sharp arrows are shot out.

Those grassland barbarians were still like ants, rushing toward the pass.

Even though Li Dingguo had unparalleled archery skills and superb martial arts, he was no match for these incoming barbarian warriors.

At this time, Li Dingguo's face already had many scars.

There was even a horrific wound on his arm.

If it weren't for Li Dingguo's superior strength, he might have died in the hands of these desperate barbarians.

"Where's the general?"

"Where is the general?" Li Dingguo's eyes were red and he looked at his men and asked.

"The general has escaped!"

"He ran away as early as an hour ago!"

"Many soldiers ran away. They were scared when they looked at these barbarians!"

"There are not many soldiers guarding the pass now!"

"Our brothers also suffered heavy casualties. The two new soldiers beside Old Lintou were killed by the barbarians!"

"Old Lintou was also chopped by this barbarian and lost an arm!"

"Brother Li, we can't keep fighting!"

"If the fight continues, I'm afraid we will all die here today!"

The situation was extremely urgent at the moment, and the soldier knew that the centurion would not retreat easily due to his temper.

But right now, fighting like this to the death doesn't seem worth it at all.

Apart from losing the lives of the soldiers here, it seems to have no use.

Sure enough, when Li Dingguo heard his plan, his eyes widened.

There was even more anger about to burst out from his eyes.

But just when Li Dingguo was about to say something, he suddenly remembered something Huang Tinghui once said to him.

"war!"

“It’s never about the survival or loss of a city or a place, but about resources and people!”

"Trade space for time, trade space for population!"

"Only by retracting your fist can you accumulate enough strength to finally punch out!"

"Winning the final victory of the war in one fell swoop is the mindset of a general!"

"That's what a general should do!"

After suddenly thinking of this sentence, Li Dingguo calmed down.

He knew that Huang Tinghui was right. If he died here, wouldn't he have died in vain?

Instead of doing this, why not save yourself and your brothers?

Gather strength for future victory.

After thinking through this, Li Dingguo's eyes became extremely determined.

He seemed to have made the final decision.

"Ready your horse!"

"You and I are making the final cover with a few other brothers!"

"Let the others retreat!"

"Complete the assembly near Xiaopo Mountain and retreat at the end!"

"We must save our lives and live on!"

"do you understand?"

The subordinate obviously did not expect that the centurion would choose to compromise.

But when the centurion said this, he also breathed a long sigh of relief.

Now that the centurion compromised, they naturally no longer have any worries.

Although they are all soldiers who are not afraid of death, they also know that there is no other value in this situation except to die.

Rather than die in vain here, it is better to rush out before these prairie barbarians can react.

"kill!!"

Li Dingguo's strong bow was equipped with an arrow, and he shot an arrow at the barbarian soldier who was charging towards him.

The barbarian soldier was hit in the head by an arrow and fell from the tower.

"Let's go!"

"Go quickly!!"

"Let them go quickly!" Li Dingguo became more and more courageous as he fought.

No fewer than ten barbarian soldiers died under his sword.

Such a fierce Han general made the barbarian soldiers on the grasslands tremble with fear.

"This Han Chinese!"

"We must not let him escape. Even if we lose a few more sons in his hands today, we must keep him here completely!"

"Come on, gentlemen!"

"Kill him!!"

Under the order of the leader, several brutal barbarian soldiers swarmed forward and tried to kill Li Dingguo, who was already exhausted after a bloody battle.

But how could Li Dingguo be someone who would fall easily?

Even though the blood splashed on his body, the long knife he waved in his hand did not feel like it was stagnant.

Until one by one the barbarian soldiers fell under his sword, until the long sword in his hand was cut and curled.

I don’t know how long the killing took, but there were corpses on the ground.

There were remains of barbarian soldiers and the corpses of Han soldiers.

The blood flowing from the long-dead soldiers has even condensed together.

But until this moment, Li Dingguo still did not put down the knife in his hand, until the long knife in Li Dingguo's hand collapsed one after another.

He just grabbed the long knife in the hands of the dead soldiers beside him and continued to fight with the barbarian soldiers coming up.

"Centurion!"

"Brother Li!!"

"Let's go, let's go!!" He only heard a voice coming, and then Li Dingguo saw only a few remaining barbarian soldiers falling down around him.

Then someone grabbed Li Dingguo and galloped away on horseback.

"What a powerful Han general!!"

"We can't just let him go!"

"If he survives, he will definitely be the enemy of our Mongol tribe!" Seeing the horses galloping, the Mongol general frowned tightly.

He shouted to his men: "Quick, bring me my bow!"

Immediately, someone took the strong bow of the Mongol general.
