southwest.

Jiannan Road.

Under Anrong City.

More than 500 Tang troops, dragging the cinchona tree as tall as a man, were rushing towards the city gate.

Behind him, more than ten thousand chieftains and wolf soldiers were chasing after him.

After chasing down the Tang troops, they massacred them with swords.

On the top of the city, Liu Lan looked at this scene and was so angry that her whole body was shaking.

"Li Wan! Good job you did! More than five hundred men were lost! How are you responsible? Did you tell the general?"

Liu Lan knows that now is not the time to hold people accountable.

"Open the city gate and let me counterattack!"

A low horn sound sounded.

On Anrong City, the drum beat gradually became more intensive.

Boom!

The black Tang army swarmed out.

There were no red cannons this time.

The two armies were fighting hand-to-hand.

The southwest chieftain wolf soldiers were strong and fierce in combat.

This Even the Tubo people were afraid of the wolf soldiers.

But when they faced off against this group of desperate Tang troops, their momentum was actually weakened by three points.

"Kill me!"

The Tang army was arrogant and outnumbered the chieftain wolf soldiers.

Not long after the two armies clashed, the chieftain wolf soldiers were suppressed by the Tang army and retreated frequently.

"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw!"

The leader of the Tusi Wolf Soldiers shouted repeatedly.

This was the first time they saw the bravery of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in a real sense.

The formations of all parties were in an orderly manner and surrounded the Mo Dao team.

The Mo Dao team was like a meat grinder, and the Tusi Wolf The light cavalry of the soldiers were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered in front of the Mo Dao team.

The flanking phalanx was like a falcon, in the shape of an awl, constantly attacking the chieftain wolf soldiers.

The infantry gave way to the heavy cavalry.

The earth was shaking.

The sky and the earth seemed to change colors, and there was a harsh sound. The sound came from under the hooves of the heavy rider, like thunder

"kill! kill! kill!"

"war!"

All the square formations on the Tang Army's side were orderly and uniform.

The Tusi Wolf Soldiers were good at individual combat.

Comparing the two sides, the Tusi Wolf Soldiers quickly suffered a dull loss.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of people were defeated by the Mo Dao Team and the Heavy Soldiers. The cavalry reaped their lives.

This time, the chieftain wolf soldiers were originally a small team hunting for the stragglers of the Tang army.

They had no intention of actually fighting with the Tang army.

Seeing this scene, the chieftain wolf soldiers immediately fled,"Retreat! Escape!"

The battlefield became quiet. Corpses of enemies and comrades could be seen everywhere under Anjong City. This group of soldiers was used to seeing this kind of scene. Not to mention too sad. It was impossible to say that they would be like this in the next moment, and their bones would lie there forever. A foreign country. Since you have become a soldier, you should think about your destiny. The Tang army fought fiercely and was ranked high in history. Why? Because they are not afraid. They are not afraid of death. What else can defeat them? Fortunately, they are alive. , returning to Guanzhong, I can see the respectful and adoring eyes of my fellow villagers. This is worth more than anything else. Even if they die in battle, their family members will be greatly respected. Why be a soldier? Maybe this is the reason. Anrong City Camp. Li Wan looked at the more than 500 soldiers who had returned. She felt uncomfortable:"You have worked hard. This achievement will be remembered by you." No one said anything. The more than 500 living soldiers, since they followed Li Wan, should obey orders. They can die, but before they die, at least they can be soldiers in an upright manner. But what about now? Now the remaining 500 people , all died in such an unexplained manner, who would be willing to do so? Is it worth it to lose the lives of 500 people for these trees? More than 500 soldiers had a big question mark in their hearts. They did not dare to talk back to Li Wan , but it does not mean that they agree with Li Wan. If he actually fights with the opponent, he will die. But if he died in such a cowardly way, what does it count? And Li Wan said that this was meritorious service? What does this count? Merit? The Ministry of War needs to know that more than 500 of our brothers were killed by the enemy in order to find the cinchona tree. The Ministry of War will show us merit? Impossible! The military camp tent. General Manager Cheng Yaojin, Deputy General Manager Liu Lan, Niu Jinda's face was ashen. Li Wan stood silently in front of the three people. Cheng Yaojin was impatient.

"Niece Li! Tell me, how am I going to report this to the court?

Li Wan said:"Report it truthfully."

Cheng Yaojin said angrily:"You are confused!""

"Tell the truth and you will receive military punishment! Li

Wan said lightly:"Uncle Cheng, I can't explain to you the use of this cinchona tree now, but since Li Yi told me, I know that this tree must have its function.""

"It's Li Yi again!"

Cheng Yaojin spat:"I admit that this boy is as smart as a demon and can fight in the army. This is not nonsense."

"Everyone has only one life. Once you die, you die. This is irreversible! Do you understand?

Li Wan nodded:"Understood."

Cheng Yaojin said angrily:"You know nothing!" If you understood, you wouldn't have sent troops to find this Lao Shizi tree without permission, causing five hundred brothers to lose their lives for nothing! Is this cowardly?

Li Wan shook her head:"I'm not cowardly!""

"……"

Hopeless!

I fell into the trap of that brat Li Yi again.

Damn it!

How could he still be related to a brat like Li Yi when he was thousands of miles away from Chang'an.

Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said:"Okay! It's not urgent to continue the southern advance. I will inform the court immediately about your guilt. Don't blame Uncle Cheng for being ruthless. War is not a child's play. No nonsense is allowed. I, Old Cheng, don't have this. Power!"

Li Wan nodded:"Okay! Wan'er has a clear conscience."

……

Li Wan leaves.

In the military tent, Cheng Yaojin and the other three shook their heads.

Cheng Yaojin was a little suspicious and asked,"What do you two think?"

Liu Lan and Niu Jinda couldn't figure it out, at least not now, what are the functions of these trees?

"Chief Steward, please report to the court."

It is impossible to suppress this matter.

Cheng Yaojin sighed:"I hope the punishment from the court will not be too severe."

On the other side.

Li Wan also returned to her military tent.

How could she not see that the soldiers who followed her at first looked at her a little differently now. More than five hundred brothers and sisters died, and they had grievances. Li Wan understood.

She entered the big tent alone.

She sat on the couch, holding her chin in her hands.

"Langjun, Langjun, Wan'er... I feel uncomfortable."

Outside, Li Wan is stronger than men.

But five hundred soldiers died like this, and Li Wan feels more uncomfortable than anyone else.

But as a pioneer officer, she can't show emotional fluctuations!

But it doesn't mean that Li Wan doesn't have feelings.

"Does this cinchona tree really have any effect?"

Li Wan was also a little unsure.

But then she thought of Li Yi's words again:"Are you insulting me?"

"Doubt is an insult……"

"Why! Lang Jun, Lang Jun, I really don’t want to doubt you, but... people are dead, five hundred people’s lives are gone, how will Wan’er face the families of these people?"

Li Wan breathed a long sigh of relief and calmed down.

"Someone come!"Li Wan said crisply

"Grind the cinchona tree into powder and dry it!"

The soldier nodded.

Even if he was unwilling in his heart, he still had to obey the order.
