Cheng Xiangrong is not a reckless man.
On the contrary, he has experienced many battles and will think twice about many things because he is afraid of making mistakes.
Just like when he was hunting down the Shenji Camp now, he did not give the order to chase them at will, but instead had the troops line up and attack in an orderly manner.
As for the Zhenyuan Army, they also have rich experience in chasing and killing the enemy.
There is a vast buffer zone between Dagan and Yanyun Kingdom, which is an area that neither side can control.
This two-world city is one of them.
In this buffer zone, due to its special terrain, there are many bandits and horse bandits. There are too many groups of bandits who have become bandits.
They robbed the merchant caravans traveling between the two countries, and sometimes even dared to steal the army's food and fodder.
It was common for the Zhenyuan Army to hunt down bandits two or three times a month.
Therefore, when the Zhenyuan Army heard the order to hunt down the 40,000 deserters in front, they were calm and experienced.
At the same time, Cheng Xiangrong also sent a team to Liangjie City. He didn't want an enemy soldier to suddenly burst out of the city while he was chasing.
"General—the Shadow Guard's sword slave leader is here!"
Cheng Xiangrong's chariot had not rushed far around the city when he heard the soldiers in front of him loudly report.
In fact, there was no need for the soldiers to report at all.
In front of the chariot, a slender figure descended, enveloped by a powerful light.
With a bang, it landed heavily fifty meters in front of the tank.
This distance is definitely the distance that the guards need to defend, so the guards drew their swords and unleashed powerful energy.
"who--"
"Enemy attack!! Protect the General!"
Ssssssssss!!
The guards around also burst out with powerful light, and two of them turned into two afterimages, one on the left and one on the right, and attacked directly.
"presumptuous!"
A clear and cold rebuke was heard, and the two guards seemed to have hit an invisible wall of light. They were bounced back by a terrifying force and rolled on the ground.
"I am the leader of the Shadow Guard, personally appointed by His Majesty Chi Ling - who dares to be so presumptuous?"
Dao Nu took a step forward, and her terrifying aura crushed the enemy directly. At the same time, she slowly took out a badge in her hand to prove her identity.
"So it's Lord Dao Nu—I wonder what you mean by forcing your way into our army and intercepting our Zhenyuan Army?"
Cheng Xiangrong didn't seem to be afraid at all. He had two old men beside him, who were his personal bodyguards.
These two people are both from Yuxu Palace and their cultivation level is at the seventh level.
Dao Nu glanced at the two old men and said loudly, "Since you know me, it will be easy. What are you, the Zhenyuan Army, doing in Liangjie City? Do you really not take His Majesty's decree seriously? If you retreat now, I can plead for your Zhenyuan Army in front of His Majesty."
"Hahaha. What imperial edict? Why not take it out and have a look?"
Cheng Xiangrong stood on the chariot, looking down from above, and shouted angrily, "Can't you take it out? Humph. You Shadow Guards can't control our Zhenyuan Army—troops, don't stop. We must kill all of that damn Shenji Battalion."
Dao Nu's eyes widened. It seemed that Lin Che was right again.
This Zhenyuan Army was simply crazy. Even if she tried to stop them, they couldn't stop shouting. The hatred between Lin Pojun and Lin Che had indeed reached the point of no return.
"Stop!! If you dare to continue pursuing the Champion Marquis, the entire Zhenguo Mansion will surely bear the wrath of His Majesty! Do you, the Zhenguo Mansion, truly have no fear of Heaven's might and do not take His Majesty seriously?"
Cheng Xiangrong had no intention of stopping at all. He ordered the team to move forward and said loudly:
"Master Daonu, please don't scare us. The Marquis of Guanjun is the son of our Zhenguo Mansion. Now he is on a diplomatic mission to the Kingdom of Yanyun. If we meet him, we will naturally escort him for a while. It's that simple!"
"You think you can stop us by yourself? Sure, you can try and kill all 30,000 of us by yourself. But I have to remind you that without His Majesty's order, it would be a grave offense if you kill even one of our soldiers!"
"Pass the order, speed up and chase them! I want to personally bring back Young Master Lin Che from the Zhenguo Mansion!"
Boom!
The dense cavalry began to speed up, like a mountain torrent flowing past Dao Nu.
Dao Nu was so angry that her whole body was shaking, but she really couldn't take action. Firstly, she couldn't act recklessly without the imperial edict, and secondly, if she really took action against the Zhenyuan Army, things would become even more complicated.
The Shadow Guard has never been involved in any conflicts. As long as the Zhenyuan Army takes action, she will definitely be attacked.
Dao Nu suddenly discovered that she was a very powerful person in Tiandu City, and even the first-rank officials in the court had to show her respect.
But after leaving Tiandu City, without the majesty's presence, no one took her seriously.
She watched the Zhenyuan Army roar past her, and she suddenly thought of Lin Che's words. The Zhenyuan Army appeared. Does that mean the imperial edict is about to arrive?
However, the Zhenyuan Army's cavalry is now chasing Lin Che. Can Lin Che really hold on until the imperial edict arrives?
I hope that by stopping the Zhenyuan Army just now, I can buy Lin Che a little time.
But Dao Nu didn't expect that because of her interception, Cheng Xiangrong not only did not slow down, but instead sped up directly.
Cheng Xiangrong stood in the chariot and gave the order with a domineering look:
"Go—pass the order and have the team speed up and catch up! Don't let these lambs get away."
The staff officer beside him said quickly, "We are not familiar with the terrain ahead. Don't chase too closely. Be careful of an ambush."
"Hmph, what kind of ambush could there be? Even the leader of the sword slaves has shown up, proving that Lin Che is truly helpless. They can't escape!"
