Chapter 1915: The Road to the Capital
overed Shuang Shuang, both An Xue Tang and Mo Yun Jing speculated that she might be the biological daughter of Mo Yun Jing's mother. They also wondered about Dong Gu Gu, who raised Shuang Shuang, and...Watching An Xue Tang and the others leave with her five thousand soldiers, Xizi Ke'er clenched her fists.
Her bloodshot eyes followed their departing figures, her teeth grinding together.
At this time, the strategist stood beside Xizi Ke'er, his face also very grave.
After a moment's hesitation, he whispered, "Your Highness, the most important thing right now is to let those generals recover. The Empress's army will arrive soon, and we don't have time."
As expected, after the strategist spoke, Xizi Ke'er came to her senses and immediately handed him the porcelain bottle in her hand. "Make them drink this."
The strategist cupped his hands and said, "Yes."
After taking the porcelain bottle from Xi Zi Ke'er, the strategist immediately turned and entered the camp, not daring to delay for a moment.
He went into the tent and immediately told the army doctor to give all the medicine to the several generals.
However, the medicine didn't take effect that quickly. These generals were still lying in bed at this moment, limp and unable to do anything.
The strategist ordered the army doctor to take good care of those generals, then he stepped out of the tent and stood beside Xi Zi Ke'er again.
He didn't dare to breathe, having followed West Lady for many years. Of course, he could feel the intense anger emanating from his Highness at this moment.
Following Xizi Ke'er's gaze, he also saw the mess on the ground.
Just now, the people from Princess Bei Jiang's place used that terrifying dynamite, and this place almost changed in the blink of an eye.
Those soldiers had no time to escape and were brutally torn apart, the air thick with the stench of blood.
The strategist's dark eyes watched the scene, and after a moment, he looked up at Xizi Ke'er, speaking very carefully, "Your Highness, this matter, I have already explained it to the generals, asking them to keep their mouths shut."
Xizi Ke'er's icy eyes stared at the severed limbs on the ground, an uncontrollable wave of rage surging within her.
Her crimson eyes were filled with growing anger, her voice almost a growl as she spat, “An Xuetang really thinks she’s invincible, doesn’t she”
She turned her head, her crimson eyes fixed on the strategist, "Immediately send several trusted and skilled men to Beijang City. The news that An Xuetang and others are about to enter Beijang City must reach Mo Yunchen's ears."
Xizi Ke'er curled her lips into a sneer, "This palace wants to see how An Xuetang and the others will escape danger after leaving Xiliang Country and entering Beijiang City Hmph! They still think that Beijiang City can still obey King Beijiang"
The strategist understood Xi Zi Ke'er's meaning. She wanted to use Mo Yun Chen's hand to deal with the King of Beijiang and others. He immediately clasped his hands together and said, "Yes, Your Highness."
……
Mò Yún Jǐng and others were indeed right, the empress of Xī Liáng country had indeed sent a small force to lurk in various places within Xī Liáng country.
It's all a ploy to lure in people like Mo Yunjing.
On the third day after Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang left Xizi Ke'er's military camp, as they were about to enter the borders of Beijiang City, they encountered the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Empress of Xiliang.
Seeing that the soldiers opposite them were clearly at least half as many as the five thousand they had brought, Feng Ming and Han Yun exchanged glances. The depths of their eyes narrowed slightly.
If they relied only on numbers, they might not stand a chance.
But Fengming had already informed Xizi Ke'er's five thousand soldiers that during their battle with the Empress of Xiliang's army, the brothers from Tanggu and Qingyun Pavilion would use explosives on a small scale to help them.
As long as you work in pairs, you'll be able to eliminate the enemy force of tens of thousands very quickly.
With Feng Ming's promise, the five thousand soldiers of Xi Zi Ke'er were no longer afraid.
While Mo Yunjing rode a horse, still holding An Xue Tang in his arms, they both looked at Han Yun.
After making eye contact, they both understood each other's intentions and rode their horses back a few steps together.
And Fengming, at this point, had already ridden his horse to the front of the line. He stood before his soldiers and acted as their vanguard general.
Without a word, he held his sword aloft and pointed it towards the heavens. With a roar, he commanded, "My soldiers, charge!"
As Feng Ming was shouting, the general on the opposite side also roared a commanding "Kill!" with great ferocity.
The next moment, both sides charged towards each other with lightning speed.
The brothers from Qingyun Pavilion and Xuntang Valley are currently on either side of the team.
They all rushed forward with great effort, but their light skills were extraordinary, certainly faster than those soldiers.
The soldiers across the way were still dumbfounded, wondering how these few dared to charge forward so recklessly.
Just as this group of people were about to ridicule the brothers from Qingyun Pavilion and Xun Tang Valley for being reckless, they suddenly saw them leap into the air and appear above them.
And every leader of their teams possessed light agility. At this moment, they also took up their weapons and leapt into the air, intending to have a duel with the brothers of Qingyun Pavilion and Xuntang Valley.
Immediately after, they saw that these several people in plain clothes who had flown over merely circled above them once before turning around and going back, their speed was astonishingly fast.
Even the few leaping generals weren't able to exchange blows with them.
But as they flew away, something smoky fell from them.
Just as everyone was baffled, the smoke-filled thing exploded before it even hit the ground.
Amidst the deafening roar came the soldiers' agonizing screams.
Immediately, a thick metallic scent of blood filled the air, staining the ground red.
Those soldiers who couldn't escape were killed or wounded.
The other soldiers, one by one, showed panic and helplessness. Desperation flashed in their bloodshot eyes instantly.
There were still some soldiers who clung to life, but their limbs had been shattered and torn apart by the blast.
They all involuntarily let out pained moans from their throats.
And those soldiers who had not been caught in the chaos, looking at the devastation before them and the limbs scattered on the ground, only felt a shiver run down their spines.
With the actions of their brothers from Qiong Yun Pavilion and Xun Tang Valley, Xi Zi Ke'er's five thousand soldiers felt a surge in morale as they charged forward.
They clenched the weapons in their hands and began to fight with the remaining soldiers.
While the two armies were clashing, Mo Yunjing and Feng Ming, Han Yun exchanged glances, nodded at each other, and then rode their horses away.
When they reached the mountains, everyone dismounted.
Feng Ming then turned to look at An Xue Tang, “After passing through this mountain range, you'll be on the territory of Beijiang City. However, if we return from here, we'll have to enter first through the eastern gate of Beijiang City.”
"After entering through the Hucheng Gate, it would still take at least half a day's journey to reach the east gate of Beijang City."
An Xuetang nodded. She had been to Beijang City before, so she was familiar with the terrain of Beijang City.
She understood what Phoenix's call meant. Returning from here meant they wanted to hurry back to the capital, which meant entering through the North City Wall Gate first.
Then find a way to enter Beijang City. After entering Beijang City, leave from the West Gate of Beijang City. That is the way to the capital city.e Mo Yunchen disappeared, he even met and married An Xue Tang. An Xue Tang was not only highly skilled in medicine but could also craft powerful weapons.Especially when considering that An Xue Tang's...
