"No!"

Meng Hu suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "Old Qi, you are wrong. This is not a question of whether it is worth or not, but a question of whether it is trust or not! If I don't save this time, I let Ma Sifeng's cavalry division be destroyed and lead the main force of the Tiger Legion to escape alone, then next time a similar situation happens, who else would like Ma Sifeng to try his best to lead the enemy's pursuers to cover the transfer of the army? If Meng Hu breaks his trust this time, what will the entire army of the Tiger Legion think? Will they think their leader is a coward who is greedy for life and afraid of death and believes in everything?"

"These are two different things." Qi Diaozi said anxiously, "There is priority and cannot be confused."

"No, that's the same thing!" Meng Hu said decisively, "Old Qi, don't persuade you anymore. I can tell you clearly that even if you pay the entire Tiger Legion this time, I must go to save Ma Sifeng's cavalry division. It can be said that if Ma Sifeng's cavalry division cannot be saved this time, even if the Tiger Legion retreats back to Xiling safely, it will be equivalent to the destruction of the entire army. If Ma Sifeng's cavalry division can be rescued, even if Ma Sifeng's cavalry division is left, even if only a few people are left in the Tiger Legion will escape back to Xiling, it will be a victory, because although the soldiers of the Tiger Legion are gone, their military souls are still there. As long as the Tiger Legion's military souls are still there, the legion will never collapse, and there will definitely be a day of rising again!"

"Military soul?"

Qi Diaozi said sternly, "As long as the Tiger Legion's military spirit is still there, this legion will never collapse, and there will definitely be the day when it rises again?"

Meng Hu smiled at Qi Diaozi and turned around and shouted, "The soldiers of the First Division, get on the boat!"

Near noon, Ma Sifeng's remnants of cavalry and Xiong Batian's barbarian cavalry were finally forced to the west bank of Baisha River by Yan Shisan's Shuozhou cavalry. At this time, the trapped place of Ma Sifeng's remnants was less than forty miles from Fenglingang Naval Village, and the three Mingyue army led by Qiu Yutang were only more than a hundred miles away from Fenglingang Village.

There was a big river blocking the road in front and heavy troops blocking the road behind. Ma Sifeng made an immediate decision to order the horses to kill them, slaughtering all the remaining more than 4,000 war horses. Then the beach surrounding the Baisha River was stacked into temporary fortifications. In the end, the remaining more than 4,000 cavalry all became infantry, and dense defensive formations were set up behind the fortifications stacked by the corpses of war horses.

Almost as soon as the remnants of Ma Sifeng and Xiong Batian set up their defensive formations, Yan Shisan's Shuozhou cavalry drove to the Baisha River in a mighty manner. Seeing the enemy's posture, Yan Shisan couldn't help but clamored in his heart, raised his right hand high, and ordered the entire army to stop advancing. The Shuozhou cavalry behind him stopped advancing one after another, and then slowly spread to the two wings, surrounding the river beach where Ma Sifeng's remnants was in a fan-shaped formation.

Yan Shisi rode his horse to Yan Shisan and gasped, "Father, it seems that the enemy is planning to fight his life!"

"Um."

Yan Shisan said with a key point, "The enemy is now at a loss. An army faces such a situation, but only two reflections: one is the collapse of morale and surrender of weapons, and the other is to burn the boat and prepare to fight to the death. Our enemy is obviously the latter, not the former!"

Yan Shisi asked again: "Father, what should we do now? Should we launch an attack immediately, or wait first, and then launch an attack after the enemy loses its desperate spirit?"

Yan Shisan frowned and pondered: "Starting an attack immediately may help you solve this group of enemies in one go, but our army's casualties must be quite large. Besides, the main force of Meng Hu's Tiger Legion has arrived at Fenglin Port now. If the naval warships in Fenglin Port cannot be sunk in time, then no one can stop Meng Hu from crossing the river south. If the naval warships in Fenglin Port have sunk, Meng Hu's Tiger Legion will not be able to fly even if it has wings. In other words, we don't have to rush to Fenglin Port anymore, so we should postpone the attack. It will not be too late to launch an attack after the enemy loses its desperate spirit."

"Father!" Yan Shisan finished speaking, and his second son Yan Chongtian suddenly rode his horse in front of the horse and shouted loudly, "Reward the left-wing guards, there is a navy fleet ten miles downstream of the Baisha River, and is heading against the current!"

"Naval fleet?" Yan Shisan changed his sarcasm, "Can it be Meng Hu's Tiger Legion?"

"No way?" Yan Shisi asked in surprise, "Aren't all the 50,000 paddling slaves from the Navy Legion going on the expedition? Even if Meng Hu seized the Navy's village in Fenglin Port, and even if he seized the Navy's warship, he would not have enough paddling slaves. If the soldiers of the Tiger Legion were paddling, it would be even more impossible. They had been marching for two consecutive days and three nights, and fought fiercely with the Zhuozhou army in the Sad Ridge in the middle of the night. How could they still have the physical strength to paddle at this time?"

Yan Chongtian said in a deep voice: "Father, brother, according to the description of the left-wing guard, there seems to be no paddling slaves in this navy fleet."

"There are no paddling slaves?" Yan Shisan frowned, "How did the navy warship drive? You won't run by yourself, right?"

"It was dragged by people." Yan Chongtian replied with a serious expression, "The Tiger Legion captured tens of thousands of people, tied them to the warship with cables, and forced them to lead the warship upstream. There were also many spies from the Tiger Army among the people. If the people were slacking off, they would whip at each other, and even draw swords to kill people. The left-wing guards wanted to get close to rescue the captured people, but the Tiger Army on the warship fired arrows at all, and our army could not get close at all."

Yan Shisi said angrily: "Will the left-wing guards fight back with bows and arrows?"

"No, brother." Yan Chongtian said sadly, "The Tiger Army captured many women and children on the side of the ship. If the left-wing guards fight back with bows and arrows, they will inevitably accidentally hurt the women and children on the ship."

"Damn it."

Yan Shisan cursed viciously, "Meng Hu is so cruel to use his heart. If he orders to block the father, he will inevitably bear the name of harming the people. But if he does not order to block the attack, we can only wait for them to go upstream and pick up the trapped remaining cavalry on board, hey!"

"Father, then order the attack."

Yan Shisi roared with a grim voice, "For the reputation of the Yan family in Shuozhou and the dream plan for our Dayan Kingdom to restore the country, my father must not order the killing of the people of the empire, but we can immediately attack the trapped remnants of the Tiger Cavalry and destroy them before the Navy fleet of the Tiger Legion arrived!"

"Okay." Yan Shisan gritted his teeth and shouted sternly, "Send an order and immediately launch an attack on the remaining cavalry of the trapped Tiger Legion!"

Baisha River Beach.

A cavalry corps captain was holding a tent and was looking anxiously towards the southeast. While muttering, he said, "General, we have retreated to the west bank of Baisha River according to General Meng Hu's military orders, but why haven't the reinforcements of the Tiger Legion appear yet? They won't come, right?"

"What did you say!" Xiong Batian was furious when he heard this, and he pulled his sword to hold the cavalry captain's neck, shouting, "The general said that he would come to pick him up with the main force of the Tiger Legion, and he would definitely come!"

The face of the Cavalry Regiment Captain turned pale in an instant, and it was not very pleasant to be held on his neck with a knife.

Ma Sifeng frowned and glared at the cavalry captain with displeasure, and then said to Xiong Batian: "General Batian, you are not a hero when you use a knife to look at your brother like this."

"Hmph!" Xiong Batian angrily withdrew his sword and groaned, "If it weren't for General Sifeng's sake, I would have to kill you!"

“Woo woo woo woo…”

As Xiong Batian finished speaking, a continuous sound of horns suddenly sounded from the Shuozhou army opposite.

Ma Sifeng and the dozen officers behind him changed their faces suddenly. Is the Shuozhou Army finally going to attack? Is the final decisive battle finally about to begin?

Taking a deep breath, Ma Sifeng pulled out the sword that had been curled up, jumped onto the fortifications made of war horses, and shouted sternly: "Brothers, the Tiger Legion has a slogan called "As strong as a rock, never give up! This time we will suppress this river beach like a solid rock. If the Shuozhou Army wants to destroy us, it is a delusion!"

The organic cavalry captain suddenly yelled: "As solid as a rock, never give up!"

Then more than a dozen soldiers shouted loudly, and then more soldiers shouted. In the end, almost all the soldiers from the north shouted loudly, and the originally chaotic shouts gradually gathered into a uniform sound of horns until they resounded throughout the sky.

"Share life and death, never abandon it!"

"Share life and death, never abandon it!"

"Share life and death, never abandon it!"

Before the sound of the soldiers from the north could stop, a faint sound of the soldiers in the lower reaches of the Baisha River suddenly sounded. The two shouted and responded, and in support of each other. All the soldiers from the north who heard the sound turned around and saw a huge fleet of naval ships appeared on the surface of the Baisha River, which was originally vast.

Although the two were still far apart, Ma Sifeng and all the northern soldiers could still vaguely see the deck of the warships full of people. The loud horns of "Share life and death, never abandon them" were clearly issued by those people. There was no doubt about it. It was the Tiger Legion, the main army of the Tiger Legion led by General Meng Hu. They really did not abandon the northern remnants who had lived for the rest of their lives. They really came to pick them up!

At this moment, Ma Sifeng, who was as firm as iron, couldn't help but burst into tears. He waved his sword and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Brothers, have you all seen it? General Meng Hu really came, the main army of the Tiger Legion really came, they didn't abandon us, they didn't, they didn't, they didn't, they didn't, they didn't!!!"

"Aowu..."

“Wow…”

In the end, the remaining more than 2,000 northern soldiers all roared hysterically, like wild beasts that were seriously injured. They were about to die, but suddenly they saw the same kind who came to pick them up and developed a strong desire to survive. But they understood more clearly that if they wanted to survive in the end, they had to withstand the upcoming attack of the Shuozhou Army!

"Come on, hahaha..."

Ma Sifeng suddenly turned around and faced the swarming army of Shuozhou. He held a knife in his right hand and suddenly pulled the robe on his body with his left hand. A large cluster of thick chest hair was exposed to the air without any concealment. Then he spread his arms and shouted, "The despicable Shuozhou native dogs, let the horse come over!"

"Xilulu..."

Amid the loud neighing of the horse, a cavalry of Shuozhou arrived.
Chapter completed!
