Chapter 613 Su Gaiwen enters Xun'an
"how come……"
"But General Qin Qiong?"
Niu Gao stood up directly and asked loudly below.
"It's Qin. Who are you?"
Zhang Xian and Niu Gao looked at each other. The two led their troops directly out of the jungle, rode their horses to the front of the Xuanjia Army, and immediately dismounted and saluted: "Zhang Xian, pay homage to General Qin!"
"Why are you two here?"
"General, we are ordered by Commander-in-Chief Yue to ambush Su Gaiwen's army here!"
"What!"
Qin Qiong's expression changed slightly, she looked at Zhang Xian suddenly and asked, "Didn't Su Gaiwen lead his army here?"
"Never!"
"I have been waiting here for a whole day and night, and I have not found any trace of the enemy!"
"not good!"
Qin Qiong's expression changed slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "Is it possible that they really marched eastward, passing through Xun'an and attacking Donghuai?"
"General Qin, what's going on?"
"His Highness guessed that Su Gaiwen might march eastward and take Donghuai directly, so he ordered us to pursue him all the way. However, Su Gaiwen's men were all light cavalry, and my Xuanjia Army was marching slowly, and I lost track of it!"
"So, they indeed led their army eastward and entered Xunan County!"
"Xun'an..."
Both Zhang Xian and Niu Gao realized the seriousness of the matter. Xun'an was the fiefdom of the sixth prince, Wang Ningxun, and had no troops to defend it. If Su Gaiwen really moved eastward, hundreds of thousands of people in Xun'an would be destroyed. I'm afraid something will happen.
"General Zhang, General Niu, please lead your army back quickly. I will lead my army eastward. There is no room for loss in Changyan City."
"promise!"
…
Northern Territory.
A battle that lasted for two days and nights finally ended. The Zhenguo Army combined with Lan Yu's 20,000 cavalry, defeated the main force of more than 100,000 people in the northern desert, and captured the desert army general Ami Khan!
After a battle, Li Jin seemed to have aged more than ten years, with his mottled hair messily covering his forehead, adding to his old appearance.
"Commander!"
Seeing Li Jin walking over, the generals around him saluted.
Li Xiuning sat withered on the ground, holding a corpse in his arms, his face full of grief.
"Father!"
"Here, put Yan'er on my back, and you guys can help me."
"Commander, let the end come!"
"Master, let me come!"
Wu Zhou also came forward, but Li Jin shook his head and said with a smile: "Since I was a child, I have never carried this kid on my back. He was not at home when he was a child. Every time I went back to Beijing, he would complain to me that someone bullied him. ”
"Later, when I grew up, he was taken by my side when I was twelve or thirteen years old, and he followed me through hardships on the border."
"Why!"
Li Jin sighed sadly, with a bit of guilt on his face, but he smiled again: "Come on, daddy will carry you and take you home!"
"Hey!"
Li Jin grabbed Li Yan's arms and struggled to lift him up. Wu Zhou and several generals followed closely behind him to support him, their faces full of sadness.
"Commander!"
"I brought this thief back."
"Kneel down!"
A burly man suddenly kicked Ami Khan in the leg, and several men nearby swarmed him, punching and kicking him and killing half of his life.
"Commander, the last general failed to protect the young general, please punish him!"
Hundreds of old soldiers came forward and knelt in front of Li Jin, their faces full of self-blame.
Li Jin shook his head slightly, shook his arms, and lifted Li Yan's body up.
"Everyone get up!"
"Destiny is determined by God, I don't blame you."
"General, what should I do with this officer?"
Li Jin looked at the dying Ami Khan. The latter's face was covered with blood stains, his eyes were staring at Li Jin, and he suddenly laughed: "Li Jin, your son was killed by me myself!"
"Do you feel good?"
"Hahahaha, I originally planned to capture your daughter alive, but I didn't expect that your rescue would come so quickly. Now, if I kill you, the only son of the Li family, I will cut off your Li family bloodline. How about that?"
"Hahahaha, come on, kill grandpa!"
Ami Khan's face was filled with a ferocious smile, but Li Jin shook his head and said calmly: "Over the years, more than 300,000 Mobei barbarians have died at the hands of my commander, and I, Da Yu'erlang, have also killed countless people. One hundred thousand people were buried in this desert border."
"So what if my commander's son died in the battle? He was just one of the tens of millions who died on this border!"
"Commander, I am proud of my son. The ancestors of my Li family are also enough to smile under the Nine Springs."
"Ami Khan, I, Dayu's cavalry, will eventually step into the desert one day and massacre you, the Eight Barbarians of Mobei, just like they did three years ago!"
"I will not kill you, but will let you live well. One day, you, the king of the Eight Barbarians in Mobei, will kneel down in front of my son's grave with you!"
"We'll see."
Li Jin's tone was very calm, but also unusually firm, and there was a hint of hope in his eyes.
"Take him down, keep him under strict supervision, and let him live well."
"promise!"
…
Xunan County.
At night, the spring night is not as lonely as the autumn night. Instead, all things compete and grow quietly.
The dull sound of horse hoofs resounded on the dark ancient road, and knights holding torches waved their whips again and again.
"Su Shuai, Xun'an is ahead."
"We will run out of food tomorrow."
"Let's take action tonight."
A general's eyes were filled with excitement and he spoke to Su Gaiwen beside him.
"Um!"
"The damn white-robed army has been chasing us all the way for the past two days. In order to cut off the rear, I gave up Wanqi again!"
"I led 150,000 troops to attack the city, and lost more than 80,000 soldiers under the city of King Yu. Now there are only 60,000 remnants left!"
"Today's shame, I will definitely repay a hundredfold."
Looking at Su Gaiwen's indignant face, the generals beside him also felt a burst of anger burning in their chests.
"General, there is no need to be angry. 40,000 cavalry are enough to sweep across the land of Xun'an County."
"Tonight, let Dayu pay the price."
"Pass my order, divide the troops into three groups, and bloodbath Xun'an County within one night!"
"Yes!"
...
Xun'an Palace.
The moonlight entered the house, but Ning Xun was sitting in the pavilion in the courtyard, served by a beautiful maid, holding grapes brought back from the northern frontier, and his expression was particularly comfortable.
"Your Highness!"
The middle-aged man with a goatee strode out of the pavilion, with a solemn look on his face.
"Scouts report that Su Gaiwen's cavalry has split into three groups and is heading towards Xun'an County."
"Yes!"
"Let's move our people!"
"I have arranged everything. We will use assassins this time and we will be able to take Su Gaiwen's head tonight."
"I don't want Su Gaiwen's head!" Ning Xun's eyes fell sharply on the middle-aged man, and he said coldly: "Xun'an is my territory, and the people of Xun'an are all my subjects. No matter how many people come to Xun'an without permission, I don't want anyone to get out alive."
"Yes!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, we have set up ambushes and traps on various important roads in Xun'an. Tomorrow morning, there will be a victory report!"
"Go!"
