In the afternoon outside Leshou City, the sun in the sky is no longer unbearable, but the autumn wind says it is cool and the sky is so cold.

Dou Jiande was wearing light armor and crossed a dark horse, with a big Hebei gun in his hand. He was sitting on the horse like an iron tower, with a majestic figure and a determined look in his eyes. In front of his horse, Gao Yaxian, Fan Yuan, Dong Kangmai, Liu Ya, his wife's brothers Cao Bao, Cao Zhan, Liu Bin, Ling Jing, Shaode, Cheng Mingzhen, and Hu Daen and other civil and military generals were all listed in front.

Dou Hongxin was also covered in a red battle robe and stood behind Dou Jiande's horse. Behind him were Dou Jiande's thirteen adopted sons, known as the Thirteen Taibao of Hebei. Hebei rebels had Hu Feng, and adopted sons were popular among the rebels. Not only Dou Jiande, as the leader of the first army, had adopted sons, but also his subordinates, the generals also had adopted sons. Su Dingfang, who was left in Beijing by Chen Pojun, was the adopted son of General Dou Jiande Gao Yaxian.

As the generals of the army, even the small leaders who led dozens of people and hundreds of people also had adopted sons. Even for general Fan Yuan had adopted sons of more than a hundred people, and he was named the son camp. Dou Jiande had no biological sons, so he selected thirteen outstanding young men as adopted sons in the army, all of whom were called the Thirteen Grandmasters. At this time, these thirteen young men all carried guns and carried arches and stood behind Dou Jiande.

Fan Yuan looked at the two thousand cavalry gathered behind him, and there was a worry between his eyebrows, "General, there are too few two thousand men and two thousand men. It is better for us to lead our troops to advance together. Even if it is one o'clock in the evening, why should we care?"

"God's will cannot be violated!" Dou Jiande swept over his subordinates and said slowly, "This battle is God's will. I hereby make an oath with you brothers. If we do not arrive at Xue Shixiong before we leave tomorrow morning, then we will follow the will of heaven and surrender to Chen Pojun. If God gives us mercy, let us fight Xue Shixiong before sunrise, then we will win this battle."

Ling Jing was a strategist. He was ordered by Dou Jiande to join Fan Yuan and Cao Zhan together. When Dou Jiande personally led 2,000 cavalry to fight Xue Shixiong, they then gathered and led all the troops to follow. He understood in his heart why Dou Jiande was so anxious that he only took 2,000 cavalry and had to leave first. Time was too tight.

It was because of the witch's divination that Dou Jiande could convince his brothers to start a war with Xue Shixiong. But at this time, it was only about eight hours before the sunrise and one hundred and seventy miles away. It was impossible to arrive quickly in a large army. Only by taking only two thousand cavalry to find Xue Shixiong to start the war first, and then most of the troops followed, would it be considered as if they were not against the will of heaven.

Seeing Dou Jiande insisting on bringing the only two thousand cavalry to fight Xue Shixiong, everyone was silent. Xue Shixiong's reputation in Hebei was too great, which made them all feel boundlessly afraid. Two thousand people attacked Xue Shixiong's 30,000. This was purely a strike of stones with eggs.

The autumn wind rusts, rolling up the dead grass and fallen leaves all over the sky.

Outside Leshou City, thousands of people gathered here, but they remained silent in unison.

Two thousand men attacked. This was a battle of death. Ling Jing suddenly remembered a poem, the wind was slight and the water was cold, and the hero never returned as soon as he left. Looking at Dou Jiande's determination to die, he couldn't help but feel excited and sighed in his heart that he finally found a lord with the spirit of overlords. But in his heart, even he didn't believe that this battle could be successful.

Dou Jiande turned his head, from left to right, from front to back, slowly looked at one brother after another before the battle. These two thousand people were suicide squads, and it was obvious that everyone was nervous. But no one was afraid of quitting.

Standing in the autumn wind, Dou Jiande said in a deep voice. "Brothers, I know that I will die for a lifetime, but none of my brothers abandon me Dou Jiande. Here, please accept my bow first." Dou Jiande bent down immediately and saluted the two thousand horses.

"I know what my brothers think, and I also know the fear in my brothers' hearts. But I want to say that although I, Dou Jiande, are not a top-notch alliance, are not a fool. If it is really a situation of death, I would never bet with the lives of so many brothers. Today I will lead my brothers to fight Xue Shixiong, not only because this is the will of heaven after the divination, but also because I am sure to defeat Xue Shixiong in my heart."

"Sixty percent sure?"

The two thousand soldiers who died of death all lit up their eyes and were amazed. They seemed to be a little unbelievable, but they remembered that General Dou had never deceived them in the past. They were shocked and worried.

When Dou Jiande saw everyone's surprised expression, he smiled and continued to shout, "I think Xue Shixiong was born in a military general, and he has been in Hebei for a long time, and his reputation spread all over the world. Although we have been in trouble for several years, in Xue Shixiong's eyes, we are just a group of mobs, a group of country houses covered with mud. Xue Shixiong has never taken us seriously when facing the grassland people outside the border and Chen Pojun from Liaodong. How could he take us seriously in his heart?"

"Lu Mingyue's momentum was unparalleled at that time, but Xue Shixiong's power made Lu Mingyue retreat from Zhuo County and never dared to set foot in Zhuo County again. The 400,000 supreme king's troops were not in Xue Shixiong's eyes. We were all unknown people a few months ago, how could he take a serious look at him?"

Dou Jiande blew his fist and hit the armor in front of Xiong and shouted loudly, "Yes, Xue Shixiong looked down on us, he would not take us seriously as his opponents. He would despise us and look down on us! However, this time we will let him, who was once arrogant, know that even if we do not have strong armor, sharp weapons, and complete training, but we have a fanatical heart, and we have the belief that Hebei people never give up. Xue Shixiong is old, and he surrendered to a young man under 30 years old. The courage and blood in his heart have long faded. He is no longer a Hebei warrior, he is just a coward who has been defeated. He has nothing to fear. This time, we real Hebei people will knock him to the ground and let everyone in the world know what the real Hebei hero is!"

Dou Jiande's words raised the blood of the two thousand soldiers below, and the blood in everyone's heart rose. Everyone waved their powerful fists and hit hard on their exquisite armor stripped from the corpse of Guo Xun's cavalry. At this moment, they were extremely brave and passionate!

He swished out the long sword from his waist, and Dou Jiande waved his sword and pointed, "Set out!"

Two thousand cavalrymen went down the mountain like tigers, galloping one after another, bringing waves of smoke and galloping towards the east. The galloping cavalry frightened the birds in the mountains not far away. However, no one noticed that there was a flying pigeon mixed in the birds and flapping their wings and flying.

Since the afternoon, two thousand cavalrymen rushed wildly and advanced eastward. The war horses marched at high speed of thirty miles per hour. After three consecutive hours, when the sky was completely dark, they had to temporarily stop marching, drink horses on the spot and feed them, and rest on the stamina.

"Dad drinks water!" Dou Hongxin handed the water bag to his father.

Dou Jiande took the water and took a few sips, but his heart still looked grim. Before dark, they had already run nearly a hundred miles, and according to his prediction, Xue Shixiong's troops must have marched for thirty or fifty miles during the day. In short, their distance was not far away.

However, there are several roads in the middle from Jingcheng to Leshou, and the distance between the mountainous mausoleums is difficult to walk. It is estimated that Xue Shixiong will not march at night, so he must have camped for rest. It is dark now and it is not easy to march, but it is given a chance to find Xue Shixiong's men first. Otherwise, even if Fan Yuan arrived with the army, it would be impossible to find Xue Shixiong's men in the mountain mausoleums as prepared before sunrise.

After half an hour of rest, Dou Jiande asked someone to leave a sign for Fan Yuan along the way and immediately led his troops again. However, it was dark at this time. In order to march in secret, he did not dare to let the troops mount torches. He could only march through the dark moonlight along the way, and the roads in the mountain tombs were difficult, so the march was extremely slow. There were even a few times when he went in the wrong direction, which delayed a long time.

When it was dark, Chen Kefu's temporary troops stationed in Jingcheng, a carrier pigeon flew into the night. The special service officer who was responsible for contacting took off the tube from the feet of the carrier pigeon, looked at the Yan sign on it, and found that it was a red flame sign, and was immediately shocked.

He did not dare to stop at all, so he immediately rushed to the tent with the letter. He was not qualified to dismantle the letters of the flying pigeon marked by the flames. This was a tight military situation and could only be checked by the commander in the army, and it was burned after reading.

"Your Highness, the red flames speed up the military information and secret reports!" After passing through the cordons and after layers of inspections, the liaison officer entered Chen Pojun's tent under the leadership of Chen Lei.

Chen Kefu raised his head from a pile of documents and took the secret from Chen Lei.

When he opened it, Chen Kefu changed slightly. The letter came from Leshou. Since Dou Jiande defeated Zhang Jin first, and then Guo Xun, the Special Service Department raised Dou Jiande's level by several levels and sent many secret spies to reconnaissance and surveillance. As soon as Dou Jiande's troops came out of Leshou, the spies from the Special Service Department had already sent the military information.

"Dou Jiande led two thousand cavalry to hurried eastward."

Seeing this sentence, Chen Kefu was already surprised. He thought that a hero like Dou Jiande would be very unstoppable in the face of the army's pressure, and he was unwilling to surrender and led his troops to flee westward. However, he never thought that in the current situation, Dou Jiande actually dared to lead his troops to take the initiative to fight.

He smiled a few times, but he felt more and more interesting in his heart.

Even he didn't expect that Xue Shixiong, who had been dark all day long, would have never expected that Dou Jiande was in such a dangerous situation, and maybe this time he would really teach Xue Shixiong a hard lesson.

Do you want to inform Xue Shixiong? After all, if you have a plan but no intention, Xue Shixiong might repeat Guo Xun's mistakes.

After thinking a little, Chen Pojun raised a cold smile on his lips, picked up the secret report, and approached the butter candle and ignited it in an instant.

If you cannot use it for yourself, it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible!
