When Tan Zong took the lead and walked around the foot of the mountain, he saw a group of people wearing alien costumes attacking the Dashun Border Defense Army in the middle. The surrounded Dashun Border Defense Army was in an unfavorable situation and retreated while fighting.

"Kill!" Seeing this, Tan Zong pointed the Northern Barbarians in the valley with the Tang sword in his hand, clamped their legs and rushed towards the Northern Barbarians. He decided to attack them unpreparedly and destroy the Northern Barbarians' defense line in one fell swoop. Only in this way can the Northern Barbarians defeat the Northern Barbarians with the superior number of people be defeated.

"Follow General Tan, if he has something to do, we can't afford to leave." Liu Panji saw Tan Zong rushing straight towards the Northern Barbarians, and suddenly felt very anxious. He roared at the soldiers behind him and chased after him. As the saying goes, swords have no eyes. If Tan Zong has a few big or two shortcomings, how can he explain to Wang Shuang?

The Northern Barbarians discovered the Dashun army that suddenly appeared. The leading barbarian general waved his hand, and a tall barbarian general with a small braid on his head carried the two axes in his hand and led his barbarian soldiers to meet them with great momentum.

The tall barbarian general found out from Tan Zong's armor that he was a general in Dashun, so he waved his axe and ran towards Tan Zong with a fierce look.

Tan Zong couldn't help but sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He tightened the Tang sword in his hand slightly, and rushed towards the tall barbarian general with a small braid. It seemed that the tall barbarian general was the first enemy he used to sacrifice his sword since he came to the northern border.

When the tall barbarian general saw Tan Zong rushing towards him, he showed a ferocious smile on his face. He waved his axe and slashed at Tan Zong's head. In his opinion, Tan Zong could not resist his powerful axe at all. If he was hit, he would be seriously injured even if he didn't die.

To the surprise of the tall barbarian general, Tan Zong did not dodge, but waved the Tang sword and chopped him towards his axe.

Seeing this, a relentless sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of the tall barbarian general's mouth. Tan Zong wanted to use the knife in his hand to fight against his axe, which was simply seeking death.

"Not good!" With a sound, when the axe in the hand of Gao Daman General collided with Tan Zong's Tang sword, a crisp sound was made. Then Gao Daman General felt a lighter in his hand, and was shocked in his heart and called out inwardly.

Before the Gao Daman General could react, the Tang sword in Tan Zong's hand had already cut through his axe like cutting tofu, easily cutting his axe, and then took advantage of the moment when the two of them had their mounts wrongly, and passed through his neck.

Then, Tan Zong didn't look at the tall barbarian general and rushed straight to a barbarian cavalry behind him.

Liu Panicong, who was following Tan Zong, saw the tall barbarian general and Tan Zongcuo rushing towards him, so he raised the spear in his hand and prepared to face the enemy.

Unexpectedly, after the tall barbarian general rode out a few steps, his head tilted and rolled down from his head. A blood column spurted out from his neck. The body with his eyebrows then fell off the horse with a plop, and he pulled it out a few times and then disappeared.

"What a quick knife!" Liu Pianjiang looked at the scene in front of him in a daze. It was not until this time that he realized that the Tang sword in Tan Zong's hand had already struck the neck of the tall barbarian general.

The leading barbarian general was always paying attention to the situation here. When he saw that the tall barbarian general was chopped off his head without even a move under Tan Zong's hands, his eyes suddenly showed a look of surprise. He knew the bravery of the tall barbarian general. He was also a good player in the northern border, and he also knew very well about the Dashun Border Defense Army. He didn't know where the young general appeared in front of him.

Under the shocked gaze of the leading barbarian general, Tan Zong waved the Tang sword in his hand, and like the tip of a sharp knife, he led the soldiers behind him into the team of the Northern Barbarians. The Northern Barbarians along the way screamed and fell down.

"Hurry, stop him!" At the speed of Tan Zong's advancement, they would soon meet the besieged Dashun army. In this way, their intention to wipe out the Dashun army will not only fail, but also likely to fall into a passive state because of the two Dashun army. The leading barbarian general frowned tightly, waved his hand and shouted to the people behind him. The barbarians who looked like generals behind him immediately waved their weapons and rushed towards Tan Zong.

Seeing this, Tan Zong refused everyone. The Tang sword in his hand ruthlessly reaped the lives of those barbarians like the sickle of the god of death. He was killed by him, and there was no room for resistance in front of him.

At the same time, after learning that reinforcements arrived, the Dashun army in the encirclement desperately broke through in the direction of Tan Zong, which made the Northern Barbarians suddenly become chaotic under the attack of the two Dashun army.

"Let's go!" When Tan Zong killed the barbarian generals, the leading barbarian general knew that the situation was hopeless. He looked at Tan Zong unwillingly, issued an order to retreat, and ran towards the other end of the valley under the protection of his personal guards.

The Northern Barbarians who received the order immediately left the battlefield and rushed to escape with the leading barbarian generals. As the saying goes, the defeat was like a mountain. How could Tan Zong miss such a good opportunity to annihilate the enemy? After joining forces with the besieged Dashun army, he pursued the escaped Northern Barbarians, killing the Northern Barbarians so that they threw away their armor and ran to the storm.

After chasing until night fell, Tan Zong stopped, gathered his team, set up camp, and after the pursuit along the way, they not only killed many Northern Barbarians, but also captured many people. This battle was a complete victory.

"General Tan!" Just as Tan Zong was sitting on a stone drinking the water from the water bag handed over by the guards, a strong captain covered in blood and bandages wrapped around his head followed Liu Pianjiang, bowed to Tan Zong, and bowed, "If General Tan had not arrived in time today, we would have been made dumplings by those barbarians."

"This is Luo Yiluo Captain Luo from Baiyun City." Tan Zong didn't know who this person was, so he looked at Liu Pian General, who quickly explained.

"It's all my brothers, so what's the point of asking?" Tan Zong smiled at Luo Yi indifferently and asked in a deep voice, "How could you be ambushed? This is the territory of Dashun. The northern barbarians are so brave that they dare to come to our territory and run wild?"

"Report to General Tan, these Northern Barbarians are cruel and greedy. They sneak into our Dashun territory and burned and robbed them whenever they have the chance." Luo Yi had already learned Tan Zong's identity from General Liu. He knew that Tan Zong was about to take over Baiyun City and was his immediate boss. So he said, "A few days ago, we received news that a group of Northern Barbarians with more than a thousand people flew into our territory to loot towns and villages. So General Zhao ordered Beizhi to lead two thousand troops to meet the enemy. Unexpectedly, the person who brought him this time was Domuer, with more than 10,000 people, and set up an ambush here to lure the Duojiang into the trap."

"So that's how it is." Tan Zong nodded when he heard this, and then asked curiously, "Who is Domuer?"

From Luo Yi's words, Tan Zong felt that he seemed quite afraid of Domure.

"Domur is the number one general of the Tutuobuhua Empire and one of the few brave and resourceful barbarians among the Northern Barbarians. We suffer a lot of losses in his hands." Luo Yi's eyes suddenly flashed with hatred, and he said to Tan Zong that many of his brothers died at the hands of Domure.

"Tutuobuhua Empire." Tan Zong couldn't help but frowned slightly. He had learned about the situation in the northern border and knew that the Tuotuobuhua Empire was one of the several powerful countries in the northern border. He had the most rigorous relationship with Dashun and often entered Dashun to burn, kill and loot. After he took office as the garrison of Baiyun City, his first thing was to face the harassment of the Tuotuobuhua Empire.

If Tan Zong read it correctly, the leading barbarian general who was escorted by a group of personal guards this afternoon was Domuer. They dared to cause trouble when they took office as Baiyun City. If he did not fight back, the Tutuobuhua Empire would probably become more unscrupulous.

The next morning, under Luo Yi's guidance, Tan Zong went to the villages and towns that were looted by Domuer people. The place where he saw it was full of devastation, almost every family was mourning, and every household was crying, and in a miserable time.

After seeing Tan Zong and others arrive, the people cried to them about their misfortunes: some wives, girls and sisters were humiliated by the Northern Barbarians, some fathers, brothers, and nephews were killed by the Northern Barbarians, and some people and property were plundered.

Listening to the people's accusations against the Northern Barbarians, Tan Zong's face looked very solemn. If measures were not taken to reverse the current passive beating situation, then Baiyun City would never have peace.

Two days later, Tan Zong arrived at Baiyun City, which was the last city in the northwest of Dashun and a military center in the northwest border. The transit station for Dashun and Beibarbarian commerce was as tall and thick as Dala City, but the knife wounds and arrow marks on it were far more than Dala City, indicating the frequent and tragic wars.

Baiyun City brings together the cultures of Dashun and the northern border. The entire city is full of strong exotic culture. On the street, you can then see the Northern Barbarians dressed in exotic costumes and speaking various dialects living in harmony with the Dashun people in the city.

General Zhao, the garrison of Baiyun City, was a middle-aged man in his forties. He didn't know that Tan Zong was coming to take over his post. When Tan Zong and his group entered the city, he realized that he was leaving Baiyun City, and he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

According to Dashun's convention, once a general like him is transferred from his post, it means that he will return to the Central Plains to serve as an official and say goodbye to Baiyun City where he has lived and fought for twenty years. Although this way, he can live the rest of his life safely, he is a little reluctant to leave this place where he has dedicated his youth.

General Liu had a high prestige in the defenders of Baiyun City. If it were someone else, he would definitely be resisted by the border guards of Baiyun City. However, because Tan Zong defeated Domuer with a small number of enemies halfway through the road, although he took over General Liu's position, he did not cause any emotional fluctuations in the army.

Besides, Tan Zong expressed that he recommended General Liu to work in the wealthiest Jiangnan in Dashun to find a good place for General Liu, which was a good thing for General Liu.

After completing the handover procedures, General Liu was preparing to leave Baiyun City to Dala City. Wang Shuang's memorial to ask General Li for merit was already on the way to the capital. If there was no accident, the transfer order for the Ministry of War to transfer him back would arrive soon, and he could go to retire safely.

"Brother Liu, I hope to do my best before you leave." Tan Zong then held a banquet to invite General Liu. After three rounds of wine, he smiled and picked up the wine glass to General Liu.

"Brother, just talk if you have something to say." General Liu smiled and raised his glass to Tan Zong. He also heard about some things in Dashun. He knew that Tan Zong was a popular person in front of Emperor Ping of Qing. Since Tan Zong said he wanted to recommend him to go to Jiangnan, which is as colorful as a official, he was almost certain that he would definitely go to Jiangnan. This is something that many people dream of.

"Before my brother leaves, I hope I can help me stay in Baiyun City for a few days." Tan Zong said with a glass of wine and smiled.

"Stay to defend?" General Liu couldn't help but be stunned, and he was a little confused about Tan Zong's meaning.

"I decided to sneak attack Nava City and teach Tuotuo a lesson!" Tan Zong's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said in a deep voice.

"Sneaking the City of Nava!" General Liu's face suddenly showed a look of shock when he heard this.

Nava City is the royal city of the Tutubuhua Empire, six or seven days away from Baiyun City, and is separated by Lua City, a southern military city in Tutubuhua.

Rua City is the southern gate of the Tutubuhua Empire. If you want to sneak attack Nava City, you must first pass the Rua City. Rua City has 30,000 troops, and the defending general is Domuer mentioned by Luo Yi, which caused considerable trouble to Dashun's official army.

"Brother, I'm going to secretly bypass Rua City. The people in Nava City would not expect that we would attack them in a sneak attack, and we would definitely take them down in one fell swoop." Tan Zong smiled slightly and expressed his thoughts.

"Brother, before we get the orders from the court, we cannot act rashly and start wars!" General Liu was startled by Tan Zong's bold idea. Not to mention whether Tan Zong can succeed, just sending troops alone has violated military rules.

"Brother is wrong. I just want to rescue the people who were kidnapped by Domuer. They are all my great-shush people. How can I watch them wandering to a foreign country to be slaves?" Tan Zong shook his head seriously when he heard this.

Upon hearing this, General Liu was stunned. Indeed, what Tan Zong said was right. Dashun's army had the obligation to protect Dashun's people. If Tan Zong used this as a reason, it would be a waste.

"General Liu, then the matter of Baiyun City will be left to my brother." Seeing that General Liu stopped talking, Tan Zong knew that he was having a fierce ideological struggle, he raised his wine glass to General Liu again and said with a smile.

"Don't worry, brother, I will return the jade to Zhao at that time and hand over the original Baiyun City to you." Seeing that Tan Zong had made up his mind, General Liu pondered for a moment, holding the wine glass and said to Tan Zong.

Over the years, Baiyun City has suffered from the invasion of the Northern Barbarians. Because the Dashun military law stipulates that the Dashun Border Defense Army cannot cause trouble on the border, and cannot go out to attack the Northern Barbarians, the border defense army is basically in a passive situation of being beaten. If the Northern Barbarians can beat them, they will fight, and if they cannot beat them, they will escape from the Dashun Border, which makes them tired of dealing with them.

General Liu had long thought of going out to the border to teach the arrogant Northern Barbarians a lesson, but because of the military rules, he could not do that. Now Tan Zong launched a raid on Nava City under the pretext of rescuing the captured people, which really made him moved:

Tan Zong’s analysis made sense. Nava City is now loosely prepared and if it is raided, it is likely to succeed. This will not only make you feel a sigh of relief, but also shock the barbarians in the northern border, and it is also a great achievement.

Therefore, General Liu decided to take a risk. Anyway, Tan Zong was a celebrity in front of Emperor Ping of Qing, and he had a high-sounding excuse. Even if the raid failed, he would not be punished. At the same time, he could leave a favor, so why not do it?

"Do it!" Tan Zong smiled slightly when he heard this, and stretched out his hand and collided heavily with General Liu's wine glass. The defenders of Baiyun City were all General Liu's subordinates. If he could obtain General Liu's support, his plan would be half successful.
