Chapter 164 Father and Son Meet

Yeluya was sent to the tent.

Deputy General Chen deliberately left two personal guards to guard outside her tent and monitor her.

"Your Highness, this Princess Beimo always wants to get close to you. Is she trying to harm you?" Deputy General Chen asked vigilantly.

Xie Pingbei said calmly, "Keep a close eye on her. If she wants to poison someone, we must catch her red-handed."

She is an envoy from the Northern Desert and has a special status, so she cannot be arrested casually.

While the two were talking...

Suddenly, an arrow flew towards him from nearby.

Xie Pingbei picked up the spear beside him and blocked the arrow, then stood up and said, "Beware! Enemy attack!"

Arrows flew from all directions.

A group of masked men in black appeared, holding machetes.

Although they were masked, they were all Northern Desert people at first glance, because the way they attacked was the same as the Northern Desert Army's tactics.

"It's the Northern Desert!" Deputy General Chen shouted, "Your Majesty, be careful!"

Xie Pingbei recognized him at first sight. He was not surprised to see the Northern Desert people.

Although Beimo had submitted to him, they would definitely want to kill him if given the chance.

But it’s surprising that there are so many of them.

It would not be surprising if Beimo disguised himself as a merchant and sent a dozen people to Daxia. The total number of people in batches would be at most a hundred...

But at this time there were as many as two thousand people!

There is no way one can sneak in by hiding their identity.

Unless the border guard deliberately let them in.

Xie Pingbei knew that there were spies in Northern Xinjiang who were colluding with Northern Desert. Nineteen years ago, it was the spies who betrayed the Xie family army, and the old prince and Prince Zhaoren died in battle...

Over the years, Xie Pingbei has been keeping an eye on the movements in the northern border. But these people seemed to have disappeared without a trace, and only now did they show any signs of returning.

Xie Pingbei looked at the enemy army that was several times larger than his own, his expression unchanged, but there was a trace of bloodthirsty anger in his eyes.

"kill!"

He was like a god of war, charging into the Northern Desert Army with his personal guards.

Three hundred against two thousand, the few against the many, and not at all at a disadvantage.

"Are you just going to stand by and watch? If you continue like this, we won't be able to stop Xie Pingbei!" The masked leader shouted angrily at the nearby forest.

The next moment, iron hooves raised billowing dust.

A group of elite soldiers rushed out of the forest. Although they also had their faces covered, they were riding on fine horses and holding sophisticated weapons...

It is the standard weapon of Daxia.

Xie Pingbei stared at the army that appeared, his eyes cold, "Xun Family Army!"

Each of the four major generals left a group of elite soldiers in the northern border.

Xie Pingbei had known for a long time that someone was colluding with Beimo, but he did not expect that the Xun family would simply withdraw the 5,000 elite soldiers that were guarding the area.

Come and kill him.

The pass guarded by the Xun family is now made of paper.

The Northern Desert Army can march straight in!

It was just that Beimo reached a temporary cooperation with them. Beimo did not attack for the time being, maintaining the illusion that the Xun family army was guarding the place.

What a risk!

"Xun Chi, you are courting death and ignoring the northern border. Is this what you should do as a garrison commander?" Xie Pingbei said grimly.

Xun Chi didn't expect that they deliberately replaced the Silver Wolf Army's exclusive weapons and only used ordinary standard weapons, and wrapped them tightly. However, Xie Pingbei could still recognize the origin of this elite army at a glance.

Xie Pingbei is very familiar with the momentum and characteristics of each major army.

But that doesn't matter.

The Duke of Zhenguo has issued an order that Xie Pingbei must be killed without a doubt.

He is a dead man.

No matter how much a dead person knows, it is useless.

"Kill!" Xun Chi gave the order directly without saying much to him.

These five thousand elite soldiers were specially selected to guard the northern border and are the elite of the Xun family army.

Plus two thousand Northern Desert Army.

A total of 7,000 people surrounded and killed Xie Pingbei.

No matter how powerful he was, he was still at a disadvantage when faced with the tactic of human wave.

"Your Highness, I will cover your retreat! Please leave quickly!" Lieutenant General Chen said anxiously.

Xie Pingbei's eyes were very calm, "No need, I can't leave."

These seven thousand people were like an iron barrel, surrounding them tightly.

If the Xun family had only sent half of their elite troops to surround and kill him, he might have been able to escape. But the Xun family actually sent out all their troops and completely abandoned the defense of the northern border...

Xun Chi didn't dare to fight Xie Pingbei at all, and just relied on human lives. Spears from all directions stabbed at Xie Pingbei.

He fought a group of people alone. At first he was able to cope with it, but gradually he became powerless...

If the internal energy is consumed bit by bit, even the most powerful master will be exhausted to death.

"Puff——" A bullet pierced Xie Pingbei's calf, and blood splattered everywhere.

The others took this opportunity to stab him in the chest.

At the critical moment, seven or eight black thunder bombs flew down from the sky in the distance.

"boom!"

The group of people surrounding Xie Pingbei were blown away on the spot.

Xie Pingbei immediately raised his head and looked into the distance, only to see a group of cavalrymen dressed as guards rushing towards them aggressively on the official road in the distance.

The leaders were a man and a woman, both wearing masks.

The thunder bomb was thrown from the air with an extremely sophisticated concealed weapon technique. It was done by the leading man.

Where did this person come from?

Xie Pingbei was shocked.

…

Jiang Rong and Xie Lingxi traveled quickly and finally caught up!

Xie Lingxi gathered the people from Wanjin Commercial Bank and marched quickly to support Xie Pingbei.

Jiang Rong also specifically urged him not to take care of himself and to reunite with his father-in-law as soon as possible.

The two of them did not rest along the way, traveling day and night, and finally arrived.

Jiang Rong saw this scene from afar and knew why she couldn't find anything in her previous life.

With so many people, it is enough to kill all of Xie Pingbei and his group alive and destroy all traces of the bodies.

And who could have guessed that an army in the northern border had long been transferred from the pass it was guarding and appeared here?

Xie Lingxi brought all the manpower that could be mobilized nearby.

Ten thousand people.

Ten thousand against seven thousand.

The originally one-sided situation was immediately reversed.

…

The battle was extremely brutal.

Those Northern Desert soldiers who sneaked in were all deadly warriors. Xun Chi knew that he had been recognized, so he had no choice but to fight to the death and never surrender.

The battle lasted until midnight, and Wanjin Commercial Bank won a narrow victory.

The wilderness was littered with corpses and blood flowed like a river.

Xun Chi died in the battle, and only a captain of the Xun family army was captured alive, and a dozen soldiers surrendered.

In the tent.

"I wonder who this hero is?" Xie Pingbei limped over and asked Xie Lingxi with a fist salute.

He had multiple wounds and blood all over his body, but he didn't care and looked at the person in confusion.

Xie Lingxi's eyes swept over his injuries, and his brows under the mask frowned unconsciously. He said in a cold and unfamiliar voice, "Go treat your injuries first."

"The noble young master has hired our Wanjin Company to come and pick you up..." Xiao Nanxing threw out the excuse he had prepared long ago, trying to lower his voice and said:

"Your Majesty, let me take a look at your injuries first..."

Xie Pingbei stared at the masked man in front of him and tentatively called out, "Son?"

"We are hired...your son is in the capital!" Xiao Nanxing tried to defend himself.

"Excuse me, this young man really looks like my son." Xie Pingbei's gaze fell on Xie Lingxi for a long time.

Xiao Nanxing: ??? The young master's usual dandy appearance, how can he be like the mysterious leader of Wanjin Commercial Bank? If I wasn't an insider, I really couldn't tell the difference at all.

Do you have any illusions about your son?
