Your Majesty said that my life is worthless, so why are you crying when I increase my troops?

Hearing this, Xia Mingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Somehow, in Meng Tian's mouth, I became the villain.

It's obvious that this guy blatantly stole something.

Xia Mingyuan grinned and said calmly, "If that's the case, then there's nothing more to talk about."

"Come on, form a formation and charge!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the more than 3,000 cavalrymen behind Xia Mingyuan moved out quickly without any delay. In an instant, the entire area outside Yangning Pass was filled with flying dust and a solemn atmosphere.

Meng Tian saw this and was dumbfounded.

Although he had already expected in his heart that the 3,000 cavalrymen in front of him should not be underestimated.

But when these cavalrymen dispersed and revealed their armor and weapons, a layer of cold sweat still broke out on his forehead.

The 3,000 cavalrymen under Xia Mingyuan's command are definitely the elite among the elite.

Judging from the momentum, even if it is not as good as the invincible heavy cavalry of Daxia, it is not much worse.

At least... the more than a thousand cavalrymen at Yangning Pass can never be their opponents.

"Meng Tian, ​​I'll give you one last chance. Will you hand him over or not?"

Xia Mingyuan was sitting on his horse, surrounded by Wang Gang and others, pointing his long sword at Meng Tian.

For a moment, the defenders of Yangning Pass couldn't help but change their expressions.

"General Meng, the enemy looks tough. Maybe they are really the elite of the royal family. Why don't we just forget about it?"

"Let him go, and then we'll bow our heads and be soft-hearted. Maybe it's just a misunderstanding."

Several deputy generals came forward and whispered admonitions to Meng Tian.

Meng Tian's face turned grim as he turned back to look at Yangning Pass. "It's easy to release the people, but now the city is full of plague, and the imperial court has been slow to send support. If this continues, the entire Yangning Pass will fall without those barbarians even attacking."

"The rest of the convoy can be returned, but those doctors must not be released."

Hearing this, Li Baoan, who was beside Meng Tian, ​​understood.

He waved his whip, rode to the front of the army, and bowed to Xia Mingyuan.

"Commander Xia, our General Meng said that the plague is rampant in the pass now, and those doctors cannot be let go now."

"Yangning Pass doesn't want to damage relations with you. If you wish, you can release those Kunlun Security guards. You can also take all the cargo in the vehicle, except for the medicine."

Li Baoan's words softened a bit, but Xia Mingyuan sneered and said lightly: "Kunlun Anbao sent these doctors and medicines."

"We take money from people and help them get rid of disasters. Since we have accepted the task, we must take these people with us."

"There is a plague in Yangning Pass. It has nothing to do with me. Just seek help from above."

"Bastard!"

Meng Tian was furious and rode forward.

"I was going to have a good talk with you, but you guys are so ungrateful!"

"This is a matter of national importance. If the imperial court truly has support, would this general still need to rob it?"

"Since you are unwilling, then come and fight. I have been guarding the border for decades and have never known what it means to surrender!"

"Take it!"

There was a cold glint in Xia Mingyuan's eyes. He was too lazy to talk any more and immediately waved his hand and gave the order.

Wang Gangyi did not hesitate at all. Two of the thousand-man cavalrymen dispersed from the left and right wings, and the remaining central army, under his leadership, rushed directly towards Mengtian.

"Archers prepare!"

As the defender of Yangning Pass, Meng Tian is no pushover.

At his command, hundreds of archers on the city wall of Yangning Pass drew their bows and aimed their arrows at the charging cavalry.

The number of cavalry at Yangning Pass was not as large as Xia Mingyuan's, but this was a pass after all. Relying on the advantage of the city wall, Meng Tian was not afraid at all.

The two sides were on the verge of a war.

At this moment, the ground outside Yangcheng Pass suddenly trembled.

Meng Tian, ​​who had been confident at first, suddenly changed his expression.

"Oh no! The barbarians from the north are taking advantage of this opportunity to attack us!"

"Everyone return to the city quickly."

After Meng Tian finished speaking, he quickly led the cavalry behind him to retreat.

Wang Gang, who was about to have a big fight with him, was startled when he saw this scene and turned to look at Xia Mingyuan.

Xia Mingyuan's face was solemn. He turned his head to look at the Qiang cavalry approaching here not far away. They were howling like ghosts and wolves, baring their fangs and claws, and the sound of killing was deafening.

Looking around, there must be at least nearly ten thousand people.

"Don't chase them, turn around and prepare to meet the enemy!"

Xia Mingyuan pondered for a moment and quickly gave orders.

Wang Gang and his companions carried out the orders without any compromise.

The 3,000 cavalrymen quickly changed direction and formed a battle formation to meet the enemy.

Wang Gangyi quickly came in front of Xia Mingyuan, looking a little hesitant. "Commander, if we charge into battle with the barbarians now, if the defenders of Yangning Pass behind us launch a surprise attack, we will suffer heavy losses."

"Why didn't you let me lead my men to charge into the city earlier?"

"As long as we enter the city, there will be a place to defend it."

Xia Mingyuan looked solemnly, turned around to look at the defenders of Yangning Pass and Meng Tian who was climbing up the city wall, and shook his head slightly.

"The enemy is so close. If we retreat now, we will be hunted down. Then forming a battle formation will be extremely difficult!"

"What's more, there is absolutely no such thing as an invasion by a foreign race preceded by internal fighting."

"No matter what, there is only one battle now."

After Xia Mingyuan finished speaking, he immediately rode his horse forward, and with a thought, he opened the system panel.

[Ordinary Soldiers: 4256]

[Level 3 Elite Cavalry; 3300]

The fighting power of those barbarians is not low, at least equivalent to that of second-level cavalry.

If all of them were converted into cavalry battles, with 5,000 men against 10,000, there would be a chance of winning.

No matter what, Meng Tian was a general of Daxia.

Whether Xia Mingyuan was rebelling or engaging in internal strife, it was all Da Xia's internal affairs.

Now that foreign races are invading, why should we fight among ourselves?

On the other side, on the city wall.

Meng Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Xia Mingyuan who turned around, he was slightly stunned, and a hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes.

Just now, if Xia Mingyuan had led his men to attack, Yangning would have been lost today.

"Hurry, while the enemy is still some distance away."

"Open the gates and let them in!"

Before Meng Tian could even catch his breath, he hurriedly gave orders to his subordinates.

As soon as these words came out, the other generals beside him looked at each other in surprise.

"General Meng, this group of people came with ill intentions and wanted to seize our Yangning Pass."

"If we let them in like this, what if this person has evil intentions? We will be left with no defenses and will suffer a great loss..."

Meng Tian's face turned grim and his voice suddenly rose.

"You bastard, it's already late, and these people under the city are soldiers from Daxia."

"If they have no strategic locations to defend and are caught off guard, how can they possibly be a match for tens of thousands of people?"

"Let the people in quickly. We can talk about anything else after we drive the barbarians away."

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Li Baoan gritted his teeth, quickly ran down the city wall, and ordered his soldiers to open the pass.

"Commander Xia outside the gate, our general wants you to enter the pass quickly!"
