The reason why Mu Qingyun was in a hurry to provoke the people of Cang'ao Country was because many people in the military camp looked down on him.
Everyone here gets promoted based on their own abilities, but Mu Qingyun is not capable enough. He acts arrogantly in the military camp simply by virtue of his status as a prince.
Even the people he brought with him didn't like him very much.
They had more or less heard that Mu Qingyun was the former son-in-law of their general Mu Fan, but he abandoned Mu Fan's daughter because of his own selfish desires.
How could they tolerate this? Although they couldn't do anything to Mu Qingyun, they often looked at him with contempt whenever they saw him.
Mu Qingyun knew that they disliked him, and he wanted to win the battle to slap the faces of those who looked down on him.
He waited for night, planning to launch a surprise attack on the military camp of Cang'ao Kingdom at night.
Night is approaching as I wait anxiously.
Mu Qingyun led a small group of men, avoided Mu Fan's sight, and sneaked out of the military camp.
They took a longer route to besiege the army of Cang'ao Kingdom.
It was already late at night when we arrived at the enemy camp.
"Your Highness, we have already investigated clearly. At this point in time, the soldiers of Cang'ao Country have fallen asleep." A soldier spoke in a low voice.
Before coming, Mu Qingyun sent soldiers to inquire about the news. This time point happened to be when they were resting.
There are only a few patrolling soldiers left, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
Mu Qingyun looked at the tent not far away, with an inexplicable light in his eyes.
"Go find their warehouse in the back, and remember to destroy their food secretly." Mu Qingyun gave the order.
Food and fodder are crucial in a battle.
Once the enemy loses their food supplies, it will be difficult for them to survive the battle.
Among the group of people brought by Mu Qingyun, those with strong and agile skills led the way.
He quietly followed the patrol team and killed them when they were not paying attention.
After all the people waiting for patrol were dealt with, Mu Qingyun gave an order and the soldiers rushed out excitedly.
Suddenly, a group of people surrounded Mu Qingyun and his friends.
It turned out that General Ling of Cang'ao Kingdom had long known that Mu Qingyun would launch a sneak attack, so he deliberately hid and waited for them to take the bait.
"Oh no, Your Highness, retreat quickly." The soldier who went to the front shouted loudly after discovering that something was wrong.
At this time, the two teams were in close combat and it was difficult to retreat.
"kill."
Suddenly, flames broke out and a battle was about to break out.
The soldiers of Nanzhao knew that Mu Qingyun's fighting power was not high, so in order to protect Mu Qingyun, they surrounded him in the center.
Seeing the chaotic battle around him and the strong smell of blood in the air, Mu Qingyun's little heart almost couldn't bear it.
He didn't expect that the other party had seen through their plan and ambushed them with people.
He carefully hid behind the soldiers, fearing that he would lose his life.
The continuous sounds of weapons and horses' hooves mixed together, and the soldiers' bloodshot eyes were filled with killing rage.
The number of troops of Cang'ao Kingdom is increasing, and the small team led by Mu Qingyun is far inferior to them.
"Your Highness, please escape while there is chaos." A soldier was covered in blood, and his pale face could not hide his panic.
He knew that it would be difficult for them to escape this time. It didn't matter if they died. The most important thing was to escort His Highness out.
When Mu Qingyun saw this scene, his legs began to tremble with fear. He rarely encountered such a horrific scene.
In every previous battle, he always shirked his responsibilities and only showed up at the last minute to clean up the mess.
Mu Fan knew that this was his nature, so he didn't push him too hard.
"How can you escape? I order you to escort me back." Mu Qingyun scolded.
When the soldier heard this, he immediately became furious. His own life was in danger, so he naturally had no ability to escort him out.
With a "swish" sound, a sharp arrow cut through the air and whizzed past Mu Qingyun's ear.
He was startled and quickly pulled the soldier next to him to block the arrow for himself.
The soldier was caught off guard and was stabbed to death by an arrow before he could react.
Then he threw the body of the soldier who blocked the arrow on the ground, and the surrounding soldiers were shocked by his action.
Mu Qingyun glanced around and found the person shooting the arrows.
He stared at the man closely, trying to dodge when he shot the second arrow.
The person who shot the arrow was General Ling of Cang'ao Kingdom. He looked at Mu Qingyun, who was running away in the crowd, and shot the arrow at him.
You know, General Ling's archery skills have always been very accurate, and the arrows he shoots rarely miss.
Although his arrow was successful this time, he did not achieve his goal.
When he saw Mu Qingyun using someone to block the arrow, he felt quite disgusted by his behavior.
Then he drew his bow and shot the second arrow.
Mu Qingyun suddenly squatted down, and General Ling noticed his intention and changed the direction of the arrow.
The arrow flew towards Mu Qingyun. Mu Qingyun was unable to dodge and was pierced through the thigh.
Suddenly, blood started flowing from his legs, and pain followed. "Ah, my leg."
The arrow was shot with such force that he couldn't straighten his back due to the pain.
"The general is a great archer." People around General Ling flattered.
General Ling benefited greatly from the flattery of his men.
He had suffered several losses at the hands of Mu Fan, but this time he was finally able to make a comeback.
He teased Mu Qingyun like a cat teasing a mouse, and he was very amused by the fear in his eyes.
The soldiers around Mu Qingyun saw that he was seriously injured, so they tore a piece of cloth from their bodies and bandaged him simply.
They thought the sneak attack would be successful and didn't even consider bringing medicine to heal the wounds.
"Your Highness, bear with it, it will get better."
Mu Qingyun was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. He prayed silently, hoping that Mu Fan would notice that they were missing and send someone to rescue them as soon as possible.
This time, he finally realized that fighting a war was not that easy and that it required adequate preparation to win a battle.
On the other side, Mu Fan was shocked when he heard the soldiers report that Mu Qingyun had gone to attack the military camp of Cang'ao Kingdom.
He knew that the soldiers of Cang'ao Kingdom were not easy to deal with. If Mu Qingyun lost his life, he would have a hard time explaining to Emperor Hui.
He quickly gathered everyone and set off towards the military camp of Cang'ao Kingdom to rescue Mu Qingyun.
General Ling looked at Mu Qingyun's painful expression and felt a sense of pleasure in his heart.
The prince of Nanzhao Kingdom is nothing more than this.
"General Ling, Mu Fan is on his way here, why don't we get rid of them quickly?" a soldier reminded him.
General Ling paused, his eyes darkened, "Pass the order down, kill all the people from Nanzhao."
He whipped the horse hard and rode towards where Mu Qingyun was.
My prince, I am responsible for ending your life.
The horse ran desperately into the crowd, and General Ling waved his sword, killing those who blocked his way.
Relying on his own strength, he fought his way out and finally stopped in front of Mu Qingyun.
At this moment, Mu Qingyun was shocked by his actions.
