The reinforcements from the Protectorate General in the Western Regions have finally arrived.
Mu Shanxue looked at the iron cavalry that would soon engulf him in a final, doomed charge, leaned on his sword, and softly smiled, saying:
"Junior Brother, those sights, you may have to see them on your own."
He said, "Senior Brother is a bit tired, this time, he might need to sleep a little longer."
The historical books recorded the events of this day like this.
Mu Shanxue of the Weiming Sect covered the retreat for 270,000 civilians in front of Dragon Gorge Valley, halting the charge of the Western Region cavalry for exactly one hour. By the end, the sky had already darkened; countless torches fell from the sky, like descending stars. These were the reinforcements from the Protectorate General. The corpses of men and horses lay in heaps on the treacherous terrain, numbering in the thousands.
