~5 min read 851 words

"Father, Mother, your child is finally going to see you!"

"How can you allow others to touch the land of the Han?"

"Kill!"

The loud roar echoed in the wind, as if singing a final swan song for these fortress defenders.

"This..."

Fang Xuanling no longer knew what to say.

At this moment, his mind was full of doubts.

When exactly did this Sui army station themselves here?

How many years have they been here?

Do they know that the Great Sui has already perished?

Countless questions swirled in Fang Xuanling's mind.

Of course.

He was not the only one with doubts.

Li Er and Empress Zhangsun were also full of questions.

"Clang!"

Just as everyone was pondering, Qin Mu suddenly drew his sword.

"Clang!"

Almost at the same instant, the ten thousand White Horse Followers behind him all drew their swords in perfect unison.

"All soldiers, obey my command, follow me and kill!"

Qin Mu swept in like a gale, arriving on the battlefield in an instant.

All the White Horse Followers followed Qin Mu into the Turkic camp without hesitation.

In an instant!

The Turkic camp was in chaos.

"Ugh!"

"Save me!"

"Where did this cavalry come from?"

"Kill!"

On the vast wilderness, various screams and sounds of fighting rose and fell.

The terrifying combat power of Qin Mu and the White Horse Followers caused the Turkic army to collapse almost at the first touch.

The Turkic cavalry of ten thousand men had their defensive lines torn apart in an instant.

The White Horse Followers came and went like the wind, whistling as they reaped lives like the Grim Reaper.

"General, look quickly!"

On the fortress walls, someone noticed the battlefield outside.

Soon.

The Turkic soldiers who were attacking the city began to retreat rapidly.

The fortress walls finally welcomed a moment of peace.

Everyone was looking out.

Those Turkic cavalry who had become nightmares in their hearts were now being slaughtered like a flock of sheep.

"Who are they?"

"I don't know!"

"Looking at their attire, they seem to be people from our Central Plains."

"It seems so!"

"Heavens, it's been thirty years! The imperial court has finally sent reinforcements!"

"Sob, sob, sob! Erhu, Daniu, you can go in peace! The fortress has finally been held, our imperial court has finally sent people."

In an instant, the fortress walls were filled with crying.

These iron-willed men, who feared nothing in the face of life and death...

But at this moment, they were already sobbing uncontrollably.

"Run!"

"Who are these people? Why are they so powerful?"

"Retreat! Retreat!"

Just then, the Turkic army, taken by surprise, could no longer resist and began to collapse completely.

Qin Mu looked at the fleeing enemy and ordered them to stop the pursuit...

These Turkic cavalry were not worth worrying about.

The most important thing right now was to enter the fortress and claim the check-in reward!

Also.

Who exactly were the people in the fortress?

It must be clarified!

Li Er and Fang Xuanling, who were staying in the rear, were still completely confused.

"Old Li, what should we do?"

Fang Xuanling asked Li Er in a low voice.

"Let's take it one step at a time; these people are certainly not simple."

Li Er shook his head gravely.

As the battle ended, the group also began to slowly approach the fortress.

"Quick, open the city gates!"

The leading general on the fortress walls walked out of the gate and personally led all the soldiers to welcome Qin Mu.

"Subordinate Jiang Huai, thank you for your life-saving grace!"

After speaking, Jiang Huai knelt on one knee.

The soldiers behind him also saluted Qin Mu one after another.

"No need for such formalities."

Qin Mu nodded indifferently.

He was not doing this to save these people.

It was mainly because he found the Turks unpleasant, and also because he did not want to kill each other with the people inside the fortress. A moment later.

Qin Mu and the others were invited into the fortress by Jiang Huai.

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully arriving at the check-in location, do you want to claim the reward now?】

After successfully obtaining the check-in reward, Qin Mu did not rush to claim it.

He was more interested in these people before him now.

"Mother Empress, these people are so strange."

Changle looked at the group of soldiers before her, feeling something indescribable.

Li Er, Empress Zhangsun, and the others looked at them indifferently, all falling silent.

What kind of soldiers were these!

They saw that this group led by Jiang Huai were all at least fifty years old!

Most of their hair was already gray, and their faces were already weathered by time and hardship.

The wind whistled.

It appeared even more desolate at this moment.

"Who are you?"

Qin Mu asked.

"Subordinate Jiang Huai is a participating general of the Hexi Protectorate, guarding Hexi here under the Emperor's orders!"

Jiang Huai answered without hesitation.

"How many years have you been guarding here?"

"I can't remember clearly, it's been about thirty years or so."
