While Fang Zinan was still worried, Xiao Tianyuan had already arrived outside of the city, not too far away from the reserve army camp.
"General Xiao, we're right in front of the Northern Moon Army's base. What should we do?" The Lieutenant General whispered to Xiao Tian Yuan.
Xiao Tian Yuan brought his soldiers and hid within the forest to observe from afar. They saw the military camp of the reserve troops in a neat and orderly manner. The soldiers standing guard outside the camp and a few soldiers making breakfast. After observing for a while and feeling that there were no problems, Xiao Tianyuan said: "Let's rush into the camp now." As he spoke, he led his men towards the enemy camp.
The soldiers followed Xiao Tian Yuan into the camp. The soldiers who were cooking in the campfire were caught off guard, unable to resist and were killed by Xiao Tian Yuan. Xiao Tian Yuan took the lead and rushed into the main tent. Opening the tent flap, he saw that there was no one inside, he knew what was going on, and his face changed greatly: "Everyone quickly retreat, there's an ambush in your heart!"
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard someone shout, "Xiao Tianyuan, today is also the day you will die!"
Xiao Tian Yuan raised his head to look, the person who spoke was the Great General Li Qiming of the Beiyue Kingdom.
Xiao Tianyuan said to the deputy general, "Let's quickly withdraw."
"You can't leave!" Li Qiming shouted coldly. A large number of soldiers rushed out from beside him and surrounded the group of soldiers led by Xiao Tianyuan. They were holding longbows in their hands.
"Quick, retreat!" Following Xiao Tianyuan's command, he took the lead and led the soldiers to rush out.
Li Qiming shouted, "Fire!" They were not aiming at Xiao Tian Yuan's soldiers, but at the camp's tents. Just from the sound of the explosions, it seemed like the camp had set up an ambush, waiting for Xiao Tian Yuan's army to arrive and kill all of them!
Everyone, get down." When Xiao Tian Yuan saw that the situation was bad, he ordered everyone to lie down on the ground. The sound of an explosion was heard and smoke was instantly sent in all directions, scattering sand into the sky! ))!) Many soldiers had been killed and injured by the gunpowder explosion. Xiao Tian Yuan raised his head slightly, feeling heartache. These were all soldiers that had been with him for many years. Who would have thought that countless people would die in the blink of an eye? He looked around and saw a river to the left of the camp. Xiao Tian Yuan shouted, "Everyone move to the left." "Take advantage of the enemy's second attack, and lead everyone to the left.
Even though explosions could be heard everywhere, Xiao Tianyuan knew that if he didn't bring the soldiers and escape, they would be completely annihilated today. Thus, no matter how dangerous the situation was, he had to escape! Only by escaping would they be able to save everyone's lives, and only by escaping would they have a chance to call Fang Zinan to retaliate!
Ignoring the smoke, saltpeter and the sound of explosions, Xiao Tianyuan finally led the remaining troops to the left side of the camp to a small river. There was a dense forest close to the river, and the dense forest was shrouded in smoke.
"General Xiao, are we escaping into the forest?" the deputy general asked.
"Don't be impatient! "Earlier, we were already caught in the enemy's trap, if we rush into the forest now, there might be an ambush!" After the lesson just now, Xiao Tianyuan was no longer willing to take the risk. As he was speaking, he heard Li Qiming shout out, "Where are they? Let's chase after them."
What should he do? There were pursuers behind him and a dense forest in front of him. What should he do now? Xiao Tian Yuan thought for a moment, then said to Vice General Chen Fei, "Vice General Chen, send a few soldiers to scout the forest, I will deal with the enemy first." As he spoke, he drew out his sword and began to fight with the pursuers.
Xiao Tian Yuan's sword techniques were exceptional. Although he had lost a battle, for the sake of his soldiers' survival, his subordinates were merciless and wanted nothing more than to kill all of his enemies. All of the enemies that were close to him had lost their lives to his sword.
Li Qiming knew that Xiao Tianyuan would not be easy to deal with, so he personally fought with Xiao Tianyuan.
Both of them were generals, so their martial arts were naturally extraordinary. Xiao Tianyuan and Li Qiming could tell from their exchange that this person's martial arts were pretty good! It had only been a few exchanges, but he already knew that his opponent had come prepared. He wanted to take him down, but how could he, Xiao Tian Yuan, be so easily captured? With a flip of his wrist, he stabbed out several times, each move approaching Li Qiming's vitals. Li Qiming was in deep combat, and he had the upper hand in this battle. Although he was not flustered, Xiao Tian Yuan's mind was in a mess. Originally, he had led 50,000 troops to ambush the enemy, but after giving them gunpowder to attack, he only had half of his troops left. Now that he was being attacked, he was afraid if he continued to fight, he was afraid that he would lose a lot of soldiers.
Li Qiming was not in a hurry. He did not try to kill Xiao Tianyuan, nor did he make any excessive moves. He was clearly trying to stall for time and wanted to destroy all of Xiao Tianyuan's troops! Of course, Xiao Tian Yuan was also aware of this and was secretly anxious in his heart. He saw Chen Fei charge out of the forest with his soldiers and shouted loudly: "General Xiao, there is miasma in the forest and we cannot enter. Several of the brothers that followed me in have already died."
Xiao Tianyuan's calm face turned pale with fright. Right now there was a pursuer, and there was miasma in front of them. There was no way out! Just as he was hesitating, Li Qiming laughed out loud, "Xiao Tianyuan, you have nowhere to retreat to. Why don't you quickly surrender?"
"You're delusional?" Xiao Tian Yuan roared as his Ink Sword shone with a golden light as he unleashed a heaven-shaking sword attack!
Li Qiming saw that Xiao Tian Yuan was still able to unleash such an imposing sword attack in a situation like this. He was shocked and almost got hit by Xiao Tian Yuan as he retreated a few steps back. He then ordered the soldiers behind him, "Release the arrows!"
This time, they really did shoot. Most of the soldiers under Xiao Tianyuan's command had already been killed, so the remaining soldiers could only use their shields to block the arrows. Even so, the enemy had more arrows aimed at them, causing more of them to die. This caused Xiao Tianyuan's anger to rise. He took his sword and leapt in front of Li Qiming, determined to kill him.
Li Qiming had been prepared for this move. When he saw Xiao Tian approaching, he flicked his wrist and shot out three darts. They split into three different directions as they flew towards Xiao Tian Yuan. Xiao Tian Yuan was in midair as he attacked with all his might. When he saw the darts shooting towards him, he was unable to catch his breath. Furthermore, he looked like he was about to be hit by three darts.
Seeing this, Chen Fei and the rest of the soldiers shouted out in shock, "General Xiao …"
Xiao Tian could not dodge, so he could only prepare to be hit by the flying darts. He did not expect to see a red figure appear out of nowhere. The long sword in his hand knocked away all the flying darts, which landed beside Xiao Tian Yuan. Xiao Tian Yuan was both surprised and happy. This red clothed man covered his face with a veil and had a long sword in his hand. If that wasn't South Yulan, then who else could it be? His mind was in turmoil as he said, "Miss Nan!"
He thought that he would definitely heavily injure Xiao Tian Yuan this time around, but who would have thought that someone would appear in the middle of the road and ruin his good fortune. This made him angry and resentful, as he roared: "Everyone listen, don't let any of the enemies go, we must cut them down by their roots!"
