C289 Su Xie, who had seen through everything with just one look …

Hearing Zhao Mingzhe's words, Zhao Shenglong, Zheng Qiuyue and the others all subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.

"Damn, I thought you ran out of energy, you scared me to death!"

Zhao Mingzhe revealed his white teeth and shook his head.

"Not yet. When I was rushing forward, I already thought about it. Even if I can't stop them and can't buy you guys too much time, the life that I have left isn't too much of a problem.

Zhao Shenglong dismounted from his horse and patted Zhao Mingzhe's shoulder.

"He's my brother after all, he's way too strong!" The day before yesterday, when I heard that the old man of leisure stood alone with his sword in front of the army of the Kingdom of Yue, no one dared to make any unusual movements, so I was impressed. But today, brother, you ride on your own, even if you are stronger than the old man of leisure, it is not bad! "

Smiling, Zhao Mingzhe shook his head again.

"Compared to old man of leisure, I am naturally still far off. However, after witnessing the battle strength of all the old generals today, I do feel that we might really be able to obstruct the Western barbarian army and even force it to retreat! "

General Tong frowned slightly and continued,

"My lord, this is only the vanguard of the Western barbarian army. Although we have a great victory, it's too difficult to force the Western barbarian army to retreat by relying on us!"

Zhao Mingzhe lowered his head, thought for a bit, and said:

"What if we choose to hide in the open and attack Huang Long secretly?"

With that said, most of the people did not understand what Zhao Mingzhe meant.

After taking a deep breath, Zhao Mingzhe continued to explain:

"The reason why the barbarians would engage in bloody battles to varying degrees throughout the year was because of the lack of resources in the areas where the barbarians were located. They wanted to rely on plundering to maintain their normal development." However, the barbarian army doesn't have a small cavalry force like ours, so it's self-sufficient. Once we destroy their most important possessions, then wouldn't we be able to force them to retreat? "

Glimmers danced in General Tong's eyes. He had obviously understood the deep meaning of Zhao Mingzhe's words …

= = = = = = =

Three days of time passed in the blink of an eye. Under the protection of his personal guards and the dozen or so experts that old man of leisure had commanded, Su Xie secretly rushed to the front of the The Kingdom of Heaven's army!

Night had fallen and everyone was resting in a city. Su Xie was in his room, constantly writing something, and beside him, a man was bowing and speaking.

Three days ago, Divine General of the West, Zhao Mingzhe, approached the city of Lingyun. He started fighting with the Western Barbarians' vanguard troops on the third path.

Su Xie was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Great! The essence of your words lies in the word 'followed'. In Gu's eyes, Ming Zhe must have been concentrating his forces and attacking the barbarians along the way. He could be said to have broken through the enemy lines. "Okay, go on."

A strange expression flashed across the man's face. After hesitating for a while, he continued,

"However, these are the only meritorious deeds of the Western Divine General. Two days ago, Lingyun City was under an emergency attack. The City Lord of Ningkang had personally led his personal guards to assist them. However, Lingyun City was breached by the vanguard army of the barbarian race in the end. "

Frowning slightly, Su Xie asked:

"Didn't Ming Zhe and the three thousand veterans go to reinforce him?"

"We're going, but we might as well not go. Over three thousand cavalrymen, however, had launched a probing attack. After encountering resistance, they immediately retreated, not having the slightest bit of effect. "Now, there's a rumor that …"

At this point, the speaker hesitated.

"If there's any rumor, just say it directly. You don't have to worry if Ming Zhe is a sworn brother of Gu!"

"It's like this, the rumors said that Zhao Mingzhe and Zhao Shenglong, along with the three thousand soldiers, were still in Big Mo. Their hearts were still in Heavenly Light Nation, and they did not truly wish to die on the battlefield.

After he finished speaking, the man sneaked a glance at Su Xie's face and realised that Su Xie's expression was somewhat gloomy.

The room went silent for a moment. Su Xie continued to write something, and said with an ice-cold voice.

"Keep going!"

"The barbarian army has surrounded Ningkang once again. The City Lord of Ningkang had already sent the Blood Cavalry messenger to deliver a letter to the capital. The letter stated that he had decided to live and die with Ningkang! However, the Mayor of Ning Kang City had also severely rebuked the Divine General of the West. He said that Zhao Mingzhe, the Divine General of the West, had not only refused to retreat to the city of Ning Kang to defend it, the three thousand cavalrymen had also retreated without a trace after fighting the barbarian army to the best of their abilities. "

Su Xie's expression was somewhat complex as he coldly asked:

"Are you sure Zhao Mingzhe is still in the cavalry army?"

"That is certain. Zhao Mingzhe was definitely afraid that if he were to escape, he would be killed, so he stayed within the three thousand cavalrymen formation. He did not think about fighting again, nor did he have the intention to escape.

"Lonely, I know. You can leave!"

When the man retreated, Su Xie's originally gloomy face instantly became twisted.

"Zhao Shenglong, three thousand soldiers, should be killed! Even if you do not understand, how could you not understand? After all, you have followed the Godly General Zhao Chengxin, how could you not understand.

As soon as Su Xie finished speaking, a figure appeared beside him. It was the expert who bore the brunt of Yue Wuxia's attack, Taoist Wu Chenzi.

"Great King, you mean to say that Zhao Mingzhe is not afraid of the war, but is just setting up a trap. His goal is to take a detour and burn down the food of the Western barbarian army?"

Looking at Su Xie's expression, it was obvious that he knew Wu Chenzi had been hiding in his darkness the entire time.

"Even if they are, how can I not trust Zhao Mingzhe! The three thousand veteran soldiers definitely did not fight the barbarian army head on because Zhao Mingzhe was not in the formation, but had found someone to disguise himself as him. Moreover, Ming Zhe had an extremely intelligent small beast by his side. With this small beast leading the way, Zhao Mingzhe could bring several hundred people away, and completely avoid being discovered by the barbarian race. His goal must have been to destroy the food of the Western barbarians. However, he didn't know much about formations. Destroying the enemy's food was no different from courting death! Dao leader, you should make a trip to the Western Barbarians right now, I hope there's still time to stop Zhao Mingzhe. "

Wu Chenzi frowned, from the looks of it, he was not willing to leave.

"Great King, you are personally in danger. If I am not by my side …"

"Dao leader, whether or not you are here is actually not too big of a difference! If you can speak of moving the The Kingdom of Heaven's army, then there will definitely be no danger. If you can't convince them, then even if you stay by my side, there won't be much hope for me escaping back to Great Mo Nation. However, even though the The Kingdom of Heaven's army had gathered, it did not move for a long time. Gu Jue still felt that there was a need to take a risk to persuade the enemy. Dao leader, in the future, Zhao Mingzhe will definitely reach the same level as the old man of leisure. Furthermore, he is the sworn brother of Gu Ye, I can't just watch him walk into death's door, you should take a trip to the Western Barbaric Nether Domain! "

It's just that, the road to the Western Barbarians is too far, I'm afraid I have no time to stop Zhao Mingzhe.

"I can only do my best, and listen to the will of the heavens …"
