Su Hedai had already returned to Ru County in advance with most of his cavalry, and used the few remaining grain and grass in Ruyang and Ru County to replenish his men and restore a lot of combat power.

The more than 50,000 subordinate troops are his bait. He wants to defeat Tie Qingfeng's main force in one battle and make it difficult for him to stand up again. When he attacks Ruzhou again next year, he can reduce a lot of resistance and can also explain to the Khan.

At this time, Su Hedai was behind Tie Qingfeng, waiting for him to join the battle group and win the battle.

Tie Qingfeng saw that the Wudang Army and other units were progressing smoothly, and the Hu troops were fleeing in all directions, so he ordered the heavy infantry battalion behind him to also launch an attack to annihilate the tens of thousands of Hu troops in front of him as soon as possible.

The cavalry did not dare to move. After all, the enemy's most elite cavalry had not yet appeared. Preserving themselves was the top priority.

Seeing that the enemy's defeated troops were gradually decreasing, and the overall situation was decided, Tie Qingfeng was about to order the cavalry to finish, when he suddenly heard Menghu's unique attack horn sound coming from behind.

Tie Qingfeng was shocked and had no time to think about it. He hurriedly ordered the messengers to gather the infantry and return to meet the enemy. At the same time, he ordered Tie Qinglin to come to the rescue at all costs.

He led the protective cavalry back to meet them. Tie Qingfeng knew that as long as he resisted for a period of time, when Tie Qinglin and the heavy infantry battalion came up, there would still be a chance of victory.

But I already deeply regretted my decision to attack rashly. No matter what the outcome was, my strength would be greatly damaged.

Su Hedai looked at the cavalry battle in front of him and couldn't help but sigh.

If tens of thousands of cavalry had attacked such an enemy more than ten years ago, they would have broken through the enemy's formation in one battle.

There, as before, the enemy only had more than 10,000 cavalry, plus less than 20,000 infantry, but they were still able to defend and attack.

The combat effectiveness of Menghu's cavalry has indeed declined a lot over the years, but it is not a big problem to be able to defeat Tie Qingfeng's main force in the end.

Tie Qingfeng already felt that he had been injured a lot and was dizzy. But he knew that he had to resist with all his strength in order to maintain the little strength he had left.

Suddenly my eyes widened.

He knew that the enemy had begun to retreat, and Meng Hu did not dare to fight for a long time without any baggage. Tie Qingfeng couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the blood from his face, climbed up and looked around, and couldn't help but feel sad.

He saw corpses strewn all around, mostly elite members of his direct lineage.

Tie Qingfeng hurriedly sent people around to check the situation. After receiving the accurate news that the more than 10,000 cavalrymen who had been stubborn and jealous had less than 2,000 left, and the heavy infantry regiment in Qiancheng had less than 10,000 left, his throat felt sweet and he drank a mouthful of blood.

Squirted out, the injuries on his body occurred simultaneously, and he fainted to the ground.

In Ruyang County, Tie Qinglin just stood quietly in front of his eldest brother's bedside, thinking a lot in his heart. Where will the Tie family go after today?

Hearing the movement on the couch, Tie Qinglin hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Tie Qingfeng faintly woke up, with a golden-purple complexion. He seemed unable to recover for a moment, and did not respond to Tie Qinglin's call.

After a while, he seemed to have figured out something, and then he looked at Tie Qinglin and said, "Where is Su Hedai?"

"According to the news reported by the scouts, Su Hedai led less than 50,000 cavalry and retreated to Yangqu, Junzhou. Most of his subordinate troops have been defeated. Now we are in Ruyang County, and I have sent troops to capture Ruyang County."

After another pause, Tie Qingfeng cheered up and asked again: "Where is Lin Jianyue?"

"It is said that a city is being built in Jiaxian County."

"You gather your infantry. If you don't return to Nanyang for the time being, you don't have to do anything. Send people to Nanyang first to bring Lingyun to Ru County."

Tie Qinglin realized what his elder brother was planning to do, and immediately objected: "We still have a lot of strength, so there is no need to do anything else."

Tie Lingyun was only 13 years old, and Tie Qinglin watched her grow up and loved her very much, not wanting his elder brother to trade with her.

What's more, Lin Jianyue is already confirmed to be the official son-in-law of the Li family. Should he send Lingyun to be a concubine and a maid?

"We were already on the decline before. When we still had strength, the imperial court, the Li family and others took notice of us. Now that our strength has been greatly reduced, the entire Tie family will not survive."

"I don't even need to ask you. I already know that those with second thoughts like Wudang Army Baokang Army have already left us!"

Tie Qinglin was silent and very angry in his heart.

He fought desperately to rescue his elder brother from a distance. Wudang Army Liu Yingxu and others were close at hand, but they only knew how to protect their own strength. Before he could do anything, he hurriedly withdrew from the battlefield and fled far away. Otherwise, there would not have been such a huge loss.

, it’s really like feeding an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf.

Tie Qingfeng said so many words, and his spirits were not good again.

After resting for a while, he continued: "Judging from what Lin Jianyue did not long after he came to Ruzhou, he is quite capable. How can ordinary people like the Li family be so smart as to meet him? But this is not the most important thing.

Judging from his actions along the way, Lin Jianyue is kind and loyal, and is by no means a person who is interested in profit. Only when the Tie family is entrusted to him can I feel relieved."

Tie Qingfeng suddenly became excited again, took his brother's hand and said sincerely: "Lin Jianyue is uniquely blessed. We don't know where he will go in the future, but he will definitely be much better than me."

"Qinglin, I think it's not enough to just give Lingyun to him. You are still young and very capable. Lin Jianyue needs someone like you who can lead troops now. As long as you don't have second thoughts, you still have a chance to rise.

."

"We will give him the entire South Beijing Road, including Nanyang Mansion, and the remaining power in our hands. With Lin Jianyue's temperament, the Tie family's wealth can be preserved. I am sure of this."

Seeing his elder brother looking at him earnestly, Tie Qinglin couldn't object.

He knew in his heart that even if he didn't do this, one day he wouldn't be able to escape.

Lin Jianyue was promoted by the Li family to prepare for the throne. Liu Yingxu took the seizure and headed east to find Lin Jianyue.

There is also the Han Mansion and the help of Tieling Pass.

I just felt aggrieved, thinking that my eldest brother and I had worked hard for decades to get this result.

He was really dissatisfied that his gentle, beautiful and kind little niece, who he had cared for since she was a child, had to be given away.

Tie Qingfeng naturally knew his biological brother, and could basically tell what he was thinking by looking at his facial expressions and movements, so he continued:

"Qinglin, let's give Lin Jianyue one last test. You send someone to send a message to Lin Jianyue and ask him to come to Ruyang to meet me. If he comes in person, just do what I just said, and let Lingyun take a look by the way.

Are you satisfied? If he doesn't come, do whatever you want!"

Tie Qinglin finally calmed down and reluctantly nodded. At this time, he unexpectedly discovered that deep down in his heart, he was not so opposed to attaching himself to Lin Jianyue.

Tie Qinglin looked at his elder brother with red eyes and choked up: "But what should you do, elder brother? How can a hero like elder brother bow to others?"

At this time, Tie Qingfeng's energy became stronger, and he smiled quite proudly: "I thought that I, Tie Qingfeng, had been running rampant all over the world for decades, and when I was about to leave, how could I be so frustrated? Qinglin, my physical injuries don't actually matter, the pain in my heart

The injury cannot be healed. I know that I can’t live for too long, and I don’t want to live in frustration anymore. I will die in front of Lin Jianyue when I see him. Haha! A gentleman can be bullied! I will finally do it for him.

Lingyun, for you and for the Tie family, we will add more!"
