Chapter 181: The Duel

Chapter 181

After everyone left, the tent was left with only Qin Chuyuan and Gong Xiaohua. The tent quieted down.

After a while, Qin Chuyuan took the initiative to speak first, worriedly said: "The battlefield is unpredictable, you must be careful in this battle."

Gong Xiaohua was sitting in the main seat, her hand turning the book stopped for a moment, and softly responded: "Um." She actually didn't read a single word in.

After speaking, the tent regained its calmness.

While Qin Chuyuan sitting below was looking at Gong Xiaohua, wanting to speak but hesitated. After a while, he seemed to have gathered great courage.

"Xiaohua, I have something to tell you."

Only then did Gong Xiaohua raise her head to look at him: "What's the matter?"

"Cough, after this battle I want to ask if we could reconcile?"

Seeing that Gong Xiaohua didn't respond, he went on to say: "The last time you said those words, I know you were doing it for my own good. But now the Princess of Liang Country is dead, Ye and Liang countries are now mortal enemies, there are no more obstacles between us."

"Speaking of the death of the Princess of Liang, did you have anything to do with it?"

"How is that possible? Although I really want to be with you, I won't joke about Ye Country's future and people's lives."

"Are you sure you didn't do something about it?"

Faced with Gong Xiaohua's questioning, Qin Chuyuan said somewhat uneasily: "I did do something, but I only asked Lin Zhiyuan to approach the Princess of Liang Country and take the opportunity to create some scenes of a hero saving a beauty. But I never thought about killing her."

"You really have good means, you even thought of using your good friend to seduce a girl. I now know that Qin Chuyuan's serious appearance on the outside, but there are so many schemes and twists and turns inside." Today she finally knew that Qin Chuyuan had an upright appearance on the outside, but there were actually many small ideas and tricks inside.

"I had no choice!"

Gong Xiaohua ignored him and stood up and walked out of the big tent to a place where Qin Chuyuan couldn't see her. The corner of her mouth slightly raised up.

Qin Chuyuan didn't get the answer he wanted. He also quickly stood up and followed Gong Xiaohua.

"Where are you going?"

"Inspection."

The two walked one after the other silently towards the stationing place of the Xiyuan Army.

On the second day, at dawn, the Xiyuan Army broke camp and left. This time they had to pass through a primitive virgin forest in a no man's land before they could detour around the back of Liang Country.

No man's land, as the name suggests, no one had ever entered or left before, the dangers inside were unpredictable, which was also why the Liang army chose to camp not far away.

As soon as the two sides reached the battlefield, they picked up their weapons and the horses rushed forward quickly under the urging of their masters.

Ding, ding, ding. The sound of metal collisions came, and the two exchanged positions, turning around their horses, the first round was to probe each other.

In the second round, King Runan took the lead, raising the spear in his hand and stabbing straight at General Chen’s throat. General Chen lowered his body, narrowly avoiding it, while slashing at his opponent’s horse’s limbs with his horse-chopping blade.

King Runan retracted his spear as his horse leaped up, and the two exchanged positions again.

Although the opponent was a battle-hardened veteran, General Chen was not weak either. He had participated in the army since he was young, and now had more than ten years of experience.

The two clashed with each other again. After an unknown number of rounds, General Chen was finally speared off his horse by King Runan.

King Runan pressed step by step, the moment General Chen fell off his horse, he had already fallen into disadvantage. Facing the opponent's killer moves, he could only retreat step by step, defending on every step.

Soon, his body was pierced by several spears, blood flowing from the wounds, his hair was disheveled, and his face was full of dust. He looked very embarrassed.

The Ye generals were worried about General Chen, while his deputy general rushed out of the city gate on horseback to meet him when General Chen was kicked off the horse.

When the deputy general was about to get close to General Chen, he saw the opponent's spear piercing towards the main general's chest. His eyes were filled with fright and shouted loudly:

"General!"

Too late to say, too fast to act. General Chen rolled to the side to avoid the opponent's killer move.

The deputy general jumped off his horse and stood in front of General Chen with a meteor hammer in his hand, anxiously said: "General, ride my horse back to the city quickly. I will hold him off for you."

"You are not his opponent, go back quickly!" General Chen shouted loudly.

"General, if not for you nurturing me, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today. Today I will repay your grace even if it costs me my life. Hurry up and go!"

After saying that, he picked up his meteor hammer and attacked King Runan. But as soon as he got close, he was speared under the horse by King Runan.

King Runan pulled out the spear, preparing to stop the opponent's main general, but failed to do so. It turned out that the person he stabbed was tightly holding onto his long spear.

Only after hearing the galloping sound of the horse in front did he let go, while revealing a smile before falling to the ground.

King Runan looked at the fallen man and said, "Quite a good lad indeed."

Then he turned his horse around and returned to the front of his army.

"Attack the city!"

The confrontation between the main generals of Liang and Ye ended in Ye's defeat. When the commander-in-chief ordered, the morale of the Liang army was high. Like a violent storm, they charged and killed. It was like a black torrent.
