The smoke of the battlefield swept every corner, and the blood of soldiers stained every dust.The battle that should have been easy to win, but due to the secret collusion between the court and the enemy, the soldiers who should have become heroes fell one by one, so that they only got decapitated.

But at that time, Mu Shaotang, who didn't know that there was anyone collaborating with the enemy, only knew that the Mu family army he led was in an ambush. While he was leading the soldiers to fight the enemy army, he was secretly blaming himself for his incompetence.

"Young Marshal, if you don't want to find a way to break out of the encirclement, our army may have no way out." After killing two enemy soldiers on the left and right, Liu Chen finally came to Mu Shaotang, who was also fighting to kill the enemy with his armor on at the moment. Take the time to say.

Mu Shaotang wiped the neck of the man lying between them with the sword in his hand, and quickly faced Liu Chen, who was leaning towards him, facing the enemy back to back: "There is a "concave" shape after about a stick of incense. The valley, you take some people there first."

As soon as Liu Chen heard it, he knew that Mu Shaotang wanted to stay to delay the enemy to buy time for their evacuation, so he shook his head decisively: "Young commander, take the brothers there, I will stay."

Mu Shaotang's long sword pierced an enemy's chest: "This is a military order, Liu Chen, as a soldier, are you going to violate the military order?"

"This subordinate dare not." Liu Chen hastily denied it.

"Then hurry up and execute it." After saying that, Mu Shaotang greeted another group of enemies who came to fight again.

The war lasted until the night fell. When Mu Shaotang dragged his heavy body and led the remaining Mu's army to the valley to join Liu Chen, it suddenly rained in the sky.

"Fortunately, there is this rain, otherwise we might be buried here collectively." Mu Shaotang wiped his face with his hands, and the blood that had dried up all over his face was fainted by the rain.

"Yes, if the weather is fine, it will be troublesome for the other party to attack us with fire." Liu Chen replied while tearing off his shirt and bandaging the wound.

Mu Shaotang nodded, and stood quietly watching the rain scene in the dark night.He knew very well in his heart that although this valley was easy to defend and difficult to attack, due to the terrain, as long as they firmly guarded the entrance, the enemy would not be able to enter.But in this way, it is very difficult for them to get in and out, and the opposing enemy can't move as long as they guard the exit.Even if the advantages of the two sides are equal at this time, the disadvantages of their side will be reflected after a long time. In any case, they will lose in a protracted battle without food and water.

"Young Marshal, what should we do next?" Liu Chen asked behind Mu Shaotang after simply bandaging his wound.

Mu Shaotang didn't turn his head back, and only said three words 'stick to it' and 'wait'.He only hoped that Bai Qixuan, who had successfully broken through, could arrive in time with reinforcements before they ran out of food and grass...

However, this wait really lasted for several days, and the rain for several days made the already low temperature in the valley even lower. Although the enemies outside did not dare to attack by force, the situation on Mu Shaotang's side was also Pretty pessimistic.Except for a group of people who are always preparing for battle at the entrance, the rest are more or less traumatized, and after the cold weather, in addition to the wounds not being treated effectively, leading to inflammation, there are also many soldiers who caught cold and fell down. .

Sitting in the temporary canopy, Mu Shaotang talked about his decision with a few soldiers with a serious expression: "It's been five days, and I don't know if Qi Xuan has found reinforcements, we can't wait like this any longer .”

As soon as Liu Chen felt that it made sense, he hurriedly said: "Young commander, tell me, what do you do? We all listen to you."

The rest of the people agreed, after all, waiting to die is not what a soldier should do. As a soldier, they would rather die in battle wrapped in horse leather than just die in vain.

Seeing this, Mu Shaotang was relieved and said: "We have too many wounded at this time, and if we are outnumbered, our chances of winning are very slim, so I decided to come here to die and choose a group of quick-witted soldiers. Come with me to take advantage of the night to raid, and come and defeat them one by one."

Hearing this, Liu Chen rolled his eyes and was the first to take the case: "Okay, I'll go with you, Young Marshal."

Mu Shaotang thought for a while and nodded, and then saw that the others nodded, he took a branch and began to draw on the mud floor while talking about the battle plan that he had thought about N times...
