"I haven't read a book, and I'm not as educated as you, but I just don't understand. After guarding the Crescent Gate for so many years, how can I just say I don't want it?"
"I don't understand this. I only know that Crescent Gate is my life. Wherever Crescent Gate is, I will be there."
"I listen to the Commander-in-Chief, and even more to His Highness the Crown Prince."
"I swear to defend Crescent Pass to the death, and to protect His Highness the Crown Prince to the death!"
"Everyone has it, fight to the death!!!"
The strong wind roared past Li Chen's ears, leaving behind the sounds of fighting and shouting.
Wang Dazhao led the last remaining soldiers and decided to stay and fight to the death in order to protect Li Chen from leaving the country safely.
In the past, Wang Dazhao's words popped up in Li Chen's mind one sentence after another.
He suddenly realized that he was wrong.
What I made wrong was not the strategy, but the deliberate neglect of countless generals and ordinary soldiers like Wang Dazhao, who had defended the Crescent Pass and the northwest gate of Great Qin for decades, and their feelings.
People all have feelings.
He completely ignored their feelings, but they still fought for him at the last moment.
Maybe this is their fate.
They are destined to live and die with Crescent Gate.
As Wang Dazhao himself said, if the Crescent Gate is there, he will be there; if the Crescent Gate is not there, he will die.
He chose to be loyal to the promises he made and fulfilled them.
In Li Chen's heart, for the first time, he truly felt inferior to his so-called machinations and strategies.
He felt inferior to the fact that so many of his thoughts and calculations were so filthy in front of a pure person like Wang Dazhao.
After Wang Dazhao, Chen Tong and Xu Wei did not speak. They had neither time nor energy to speak.
Although the Xiaoqi camp was held back by Wang Dazhao and the others with their lives, the shouts of killing behind them were getting smaller and weaker, and it was only a matter of time before their entire army was annihilated.
But the south city gate has not arrived yet.
The two of them unleashed their full potential, exerted all their strength, and took turns leading Li Chen to the south gate as quickly as possible.
With such a desperate dash, the South City Gate was within easy reach.
Finally, they saw the long-lost flag of the Qin army and the roaring shouts of killing.
Chen Tongyun took a deep breath and roared out from his throat: "Sergeant Da Qin, help me!!!"
A word of rescue made the entire Qin garrison excited.
"It's the Crown Prince! His Highness the Crown Prince!!!"
"Hurry!!! Welcome His Royal Highness!!!"
Amidst the shouts of countless people, the soldiers did not need any orders at all, and they all rushed towards Li Chen's location spontaneously.
Seeing the familiar faces, familiar armor, familiar flags and language, Chen Tong and Xu Wei looked at each other, so excited that they burst into tears, and they ran out anyway.
Wu Banshan personally led the team and immediately retreated after receiving Li Chen.
"retreat!!!"
When Wu Banshan received Li Chen, his whole body relaxed.
Although Li Chen insisted on it himself, if His Highness the Crown Prince really confessed that he was at Yueyang Pass, then not only Yueyang Pass would be killed today, but also the entire Great Qin State Zuo.
Fortunately, with the blessing of God and the blessing of the God of War, His Royal Highness the Prince has returned safely.
Following Wu Banshan, he rushed out of the south city gate under heavy protection. The scene in front of him instantly opened up, with a flat river connecting Gansu and Shaanxi.
"General Wu."
Li Chen spoke.
"The end will be here."
Wu Banshan was attentive and waiting for orders.
"Retreat immediately, the Liao army will chase you out soon."
As if to confirm Li Chen's words, there was an earthquake-like sound of footsteps and horse hooves coming from the south city gate.
On the top of the city gate, Yelu Shenxuan rushed towards him.
Li Chen raised his head and stared at Yelu Shenxuan.
