Fifty miles west of Dongshan Pass, Bocai Daying.

Since learning that Han Sui and Ma Teng's coalition forces had broken through the Dongshan Pass, Bo immediately dispatched troops and transferred all the 5,000 infantry stationed in Wuwei County to the Dongshan Pass. He also set up two camps, east and west, fifty miles away from the Hanma coalition camp, and supported each other with a supportive force, and strictly prevented the Hanma army from attacking the hinterland of Wuwei County.

Bo Cai had only 10,000 infans under his tent, and Li Li put all the defenses of the whole county on his shoulders. However, 10,000 infans had to divide their troops to garrison the thirteen counties in the county, which was obviously too short and insufficient. Therefore, Bo Cai suggested that each county recruit some young and strong men to defend the city, distribute a small amount of food, defend the city in wartime, and return home to farm in daily life. Li Li agreed to his suggestion and asked each county to recruit three hundred young and strong men to serve as county soldiers.

In this way, the infantry under Bocai's tent only had to send thousands of troops to guard various passes, and the remaining troops were stationed in the hinterland of Wuwei County. If there was a sudden war, they would rush to various passes at any time.

Be prepared for any trouble.

Bocai's previous defense arrangements have indeed shown initial results this time.

The Han-Ma coalition forces raided Wuwei, and Bo Cai immediately led his troops to rescue, intercepted the Han-Ma enemy at the front line of the Dongshan Pass, set up camp to defend the enemy to the death, and confronted the enemy from afar.

Originally, the only five thousand infantrymen under Bocai's tent and more than a thousand defenders near each county were like a mantised mantised chariot in front of the Hanma army, and could not resist it at all. Fortunately, the Hanma army did not seem to be in a hurry to conquer the city and land. After capturing the Dongshan Pass, they actually camped on the spot, posing in a steady manner.

Bocai Camp, inside the Central Army's tent.

Bocai and Li Dian gathered together and summoned the generals under the tent to discuss strategies to fight the enemy.

In the past four days, Bo had only led 3,000 troops to guard the Dongdaying. Li Dian and more than 2,000 infantry guarded the Xidaying. The two battalions were only 200 steps apart, guarding the main traffic route leading to the hinterland of Wuwei County.

In the past four days, the two battalions repelled more than ten tentative attacks of the Han-Ma coalition forces and strictly guarded the camp, which made the Han-Ma coalition forces temporarily station troops and remained within a radius of dozens of miles of the pass.

"Mancheng, we are in a dangerous situation at the moment. Our army has suffered more than 2,000 casualties in recent days. If this continues, our army will inevitably be defeated within three days. Can Mancheng have a countermeasure?"

In the big tent, Bo Cai frowned, looked solemn, his face was tired, and he said to Li Dian in a low tone.

Li Dian's expression was the same as that of Bo Talent. During these four days, he strictly guarded the camp day and night, and had a rare rest. He was exhausted both physically and mentally.

"Don't worry, commander. Two days ago, we sent a fast horse to ask for help from the lord. I believe the lord has personally led a large army on the way and will be able to reach the camp in the next two days. Although the Han Sui and Ma Teng coalition forces have been fierce, they have been attacking a small group of infantrymen of thousands of people, and have not dispatched the entire army. In this way, we can still defend the lord's reinforcements for several days, and we should be able to wait for the lord's reinforcements."

While speaking, a trace of hesitation flashed in Li Dian's eyes, his tone was squinting, and he seemed to be inconfident.

This is not to say that he does not believe that Li Li will lead his army to aid, but is quite worried about the current war and does not know if he and Bo Cai can wait for the day when Li Li's reinforcements arrive.

In the past two days, the offensive of the Han-Ma army has become more and more powerful, and the attack has been very fierce, resulting in a sharp increase in casualties between the soldiers guarding the camps of Li Dian and Bo Cai. Now Li Dian has only more than 1,000 infantrymen left under Li Dian, while Bo Cai has only two thousand men. The soldiers guard the camp day and night, exhausted both physically and mentally, and have low morale.

If this continues, how many days can the two camps in the east and west be able to hold on to each other? Bo Cai and Li Dian are unsure.

Bo Cai saw the generals in the tent bow their heads, looking anxious and confused, and suddenly realized that he had lost his composure just now.

As the commander of a military, no matter how unfavorable the situation is, you cannot lose your fighting spirit. Otherwise, the entire army will be completely collapsed.

How to stick to the camp if the army is disintegrated?

In an instant, Bo suppressed his worries, smiled and laughed: "What's wrong with everyone? Our army resisted the fierce attack of the Han-Ma coalition forces with five thousand infantrymen. The camp is still there and its military strength is still there. This is all the achievements of you to fight the enemy bravely!

Now the lord's army is on the way to rescue, and we will arrive here soon and reinforce us. In four days, we have resisted the enemy's attack for four days. There are still more than 3,000 people and sufficient food. If we resist the four days of attack from his Hanma army, our army will not be defeated!

You may not know much about the speed of the lord leading the army to rescue. In the battle of Heilongling, the lord personally led tens of thousands of troops to chase Han Sui for more than 300 miles at night. He chased Han Sui from Heilongling to the city of Jincheng in one breath, killing Han Sui's 60,000 troops scattered and fled! Our army's camp is only a few hundred miles away from Guzang City. Two days ago, our scouts rushed to the county magistrate's office. With the lord's decisive marching speed, this commander can conclude that within two days, the lord will lead the army to the front camp before the touchdown!"

Bo Cai's words shocked the generals in the tent. Everyone, including Li Dian, raised their heads to look at Bo Cai, who was full of confident smiles, and their fighting spirit quickly returned.

In a moment, the gloomy and depressing aura in the tent swept away, and the frustrated expression on the faces of the generals dissipated, and instead, the expression was filled with unyielding fighting spirit.

"News........."

"Report to the commander, two hours ago, Lord... Lord, Lord, personally led six cavalry battalions into the small town of Dongshan, more than ten miles behind our army, and are now rushing to the camp!"

As the generals gradually recovered their confidence, a dusty scout rushed into the tent and said loudly with excitement.

"What? Say it again!"

Bo Cai, Li Dian and other generals were shocked when they heard this. They stood up and ran to the scout quickly. Bo Cai stretched out his hand and raised the scout, asking inexplicably.

"Cough, cough cough! I... I'll say this again. Please spare my life. I'm so embarrassed that I'm so embarrassed that I can't breathe. Cough..."

Bocai grabbed the scout who was lifted up with one hand, and his feet flew into the air. The armor on his body instantly strangled towards his neck, causing his face to flush, cough violently, and shouted in panic.

"Oh? Well, I'll let go, you can say it!"

Bo responded subconsciously, gently lowered his scout, and looked at him with a burning look.

"Well... Report to the commander, the lord led his army to Dongshan City two hours ago, and all the armies and supplies were stored in the city, and then he took a rest. After going to the county government to deliver the letter, he went with the lord's army. When he arrived at Dongshan City, his subordinates wanted to go back to the camp first to report to the commander, but the vanguard of the front army commander Huan Fei said that the battle in the camp was finished today, so there was no need to hurry to rush, so that his subordinates could rest and report.

This is the case. My subordinates dare not hide it at all. Please observe clearly!" The scout reported in detail.

Bo Cai laughed loudly when he heard this, patted the scout on the shoulder, and laughed: "Hahaha! Don't be nervous, this commander has not blamed you. You just said that the lord brought all the six major cavalry battalions, what do you mean seriously?"

"Hahaha! Could it be that the Commander Bo Cai would not believe it? Huan Fei was eager to fight. He was unaware of it and entered the big tent without reporting. He also asked Bo Cai, don't blame him, Li Dian!"

Before Bocai finished speaking, the scout had not answered yet, and saw Huan Fei's tall and majestic figure strode into the tent, and said loudly with a laugh.

"Huan Fei?" Bo suddenly shouted.

Then he suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Huan Fei, you came so quickly. My scout under my tent came in and you arrived. I had heard that the Jinniu divine beast ran thousands of miles a day, running like flying, crossing mountains and rivers, and rifts and streams as if walking on flat ground. I had been half-believing before, but now I do believe it. The scout set out earlier than you, but you still arrived with him. The Jinniu divine beast is indeed well-known! Hahaha!"

Huan Fei laughed and said, "Bocai has commanded the award. This is the first time Huan is driving the golden beast to fight. He is excited for a moment and can't control himself. He is eager to fight. The lord on the road has already said to me several times. The scout was indeed superb riding skills just now, and he leaned over and ran all the way, otherwise he would be left behind by me!"

While talking and laughing, Huan Fei suddenly said seriously: "Bocai, Commander Li Dian, the lord has arrived at the gate. Let's go out to the camp to greet you!"

"Oh? The lord has arrived too, so soon?" Bo Cai immediately followed Huan Fei out of the tent and asked in surprise.

Huan Fei kept walking and laughing, "Did the commander Bo Cai forget that his lord's mount is the King of Golden Beasts, which is even better than my lord's mount. How can he be slower? I just heard the low roar of the mount Golden Beast, which means that the lord has arrived! The two lords are originally brothers, and their hearts are connected. They are dozens of miles apart. Both beasts can accurately find each other."

"Oh, it's so magical. It's really eye-opening, it's incredible!" Bo Cai said in amazement. Behind him, generals such as Li Dian rushed to follow and headed straight to the gate.

"roar---!"

A huge roar from the Beast King shook the wilderness within a radius of more than ten miles, which shocked the war horses in Bocai's camp, panic and neighed, and stomped on their four hooves, and were restless.

"Jin Qi, don't scream! This is our military camp. Your screaming will scare the horses in the camp to a great extent. If you accidentally hurt the soldiers in the camp, I will definitely forgive you!"

Outside the gate, Li Li's mount, the Golden Beast King, roared loudly, and the war horses in the camp suddenly burst into a terrifying shock.

The Beast King of Jinzhang loves to show off so much that he yells twice whenever he goes, as if he announces that the Beast King is coming.

Li Li was helpless about this. He said the King of Jinniu several times along the way, but it didn't work very well. At this moment, seeing it tilting its head and yelling again, Li Li had to scold it lustfully and impolitely. Let's not talk about whether it works or not, just consider it self-comfort.

"I'm waiting to see my lord!"

Outside the gate, Bo Cai, Huan Fei, Li Dian and other generals walked to Li Li and bowed to him.

"Everyone, get up. Teng Xiao immediately ordered the rear army to set up camp and connect the two camps in the east and west. Let the fight be on hold today, and the entire army will fight the Hanma army tomorrow!"

After Li Li finished the order, he waved his hand and more than 30,000 combat cavalry behind him slowly passed through the gate and entered the Bocai Camp. (To be continued)
