And farther in the distance, even ed froe trap for hie into, a trap that involved forty to fifty thousand soldiers These forces, coupled with the returning cavalry and the reserve troops, were truly enough to have Huoshu Huicang drink his fill
But now, none of it could be used
"Pass on my order There’s no need to worry about the Tibetans behind us All troops should march at full speed We only have one day After today, Huoshu Huicang will rejoin with the Mengshe Zhao army, and their combined forces will definitely march at full speed to catch up with us This period of time is our only chance No matter what, we have to reach that place within this ti all of us will be death That place is our only chance to live!&8221;
