Chapter 97 Reversal
Zhao Fangye dismounted and stood in the middle of the open space where the two armies were fighting, his eyes fixed on Song Huaixi.
The two armies were facing each other, with soldiers standing in neat rows behind them, and the situation was tense.
The fear in Song Huaixi's heart was finally calmed down the moment he saw Zhao Fangye. His hands were tied.
There was a pain in the wrist. My arms became a little stiff after being tied behind my back for a long time.
Song Huaixi's mind is still in a mess. I don't quite understand what it means to be kidnapped.
He had never been kidnapped before and was still a little dazed.
I just hope I can get back to Zhao Fangye as soon as possible, the people here are so fierce. Song Huaixi kept struggling to get to Zhao Fangye.
However, the person holding him from behind held him tightly with his hands like an iron clamp and warned him in an impatient tone: "Behave yourself!"
Zhao Fangye, who was in the distance, looked in the direction of Song Huaixi and seemed to see Song Huaixi's uneasiness.
The subordinates brought the prince to the front of the two armies, and Zhao Fangye pushed the prince out almost without hesitation.
The prince's hands were also tied tightly with hemp ropes, and he was pushed so hard that he staggered. He stumbled a few steps before raising his head.
The moment his eyes saw General Xiao, excitement immediately burst out in them. A hoarse voice called out, "Grandpa!"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Seeing him, General Xiao excitedly dismounted from his horse and wanted to run over to greet him.
Zhao Fangye immediately turned around, pulled out the spear from a soldier beside him and threw it forward. The spear flew through the air and pierced in front of General Xiao with a whoosh.
Commander Xiao paused in his steps as he looked at the gun barrel that was almost piercing him, the end of which was still shaking.
General Xiao suddenly raised his head and glared at Zhao Fangye: "Zhao Fangye!"
Zhao Fangye stood like a pine tree with a cold expression. His pale eyes stared at Captain Xiao: "Hand over my men. Otherwise..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Fangye put the long sword at his waist against the prince's neck.
The cold sword blade was chilling, and Zhao Jingshuo immediately showed a terrified expression and hurriedly shouted to General Xiao: "Grandpa! Save me! Save me!"
"Bring the person up!" Zhao Jingsuo was afraid that he would get hurt accidentally. Commander Xiao immediately ordered someone to bring Song Huaixi up. Push the person out.
Zhao Jingshuo and Song Huaixi moved quickly towards each other.
Song Huaixi wanted to return to Zhao Fangye, and the prince, who had been imprisoned and tortured in the dungeon by Zhao Fangye for so long, finally had a chance to regain his freedom.
Without stopping, the troops on both sides kept their eyes on the two people running in the open space. The soldiers on both sides drew their bows and arrows and kept an eye on the movements of the two men.
If there is any thought of sneaking around, both sides will kill the other side's hostages without hesitation.
Zhao Fangye stood in front of the formation, his eyes closely following Song Huaixi who was running towards him, his lips unconsciously tightened.
Lan Feng stood behind Zhao Fangye with an equally solemn expression, watching Song Huaixi's movements closely.
Song Huaixi had his hands tied and he ran towards Zhao Fangye with all his might. The short open space felt extremely long to Zhao Fangye.
Finally, when Song Huaixi threw herself into his arms, Zhao Fangye felt his body become real. I hugged Song Huaixi tightly with both hands, and my heart finally settled down.
"Zhao Fangye...I'm so scared..." Surrounded by the familiar breath, Song Huaixi's fear suddenly came over him like an overwhelming force.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Reaching out and holding Song Huaixi, Zhao Fangye touched his forehead. Looking over his body, he saw no obvious wounds. Only then did Zhao Fangye feel relieved.
Song Huaixi's eyes were moist and he wanted to say something to Zhao Fangye, but Zhao Fangye untied the rope on his hands and carried him onto General Lanfeng's horse.
Lan Feng and Zhao Fangye met each other's eyes and nodded. He turned around, stepped on the horse's pedal, jumped on it, and hugged Song Huaixi in front of him.
"Sister Lanfeng?" Song Huaixi turned to look at Lanfeng, his eyes confused: "Why are we riding horses?"
"No time to say more, Huaixi, sit tight." Lan Feng pulled the reins and the horse neighed suddenly.
The soldiers behind them consciously made way for the two of them to retreat. At the same time, each soldier had an unusually resolute expression on his face, and his eyes were bright.
His posture was tense, ready for a fight at any time.
General Lan Feng did not answer Song Huaixi's question, and turned his horse around with Song Huaixi. Run towards the direction of the tent.
"Zhao Fangye..." Song Huaixi didn't know why he did this, but he vaguely sensed something.
Zhao Fangye stood where he was, watching the backs of Song Huaixi and Lan Feng gradually disappear into the distance, then he turned his gaze towards the enemy camp.
Commandant Xiao untied the rope on Zhao Jingshuo's hands.
He was checking the scars on Zhao Jingshuo's body, but hadn't gotten close enough to take a closer look. Then I heard the neighing of horses from the opposite side.
He couldn't help but look towards Zhao Fangye's camp, and saw that as soon as Zhao Fangye rescued Song Huaixi, he hurriedly escorted him back to the tent. A scornful smile appeared on his face.
"I didn't expect that Zhao Fangye is still such a lovesick man." As he spoke, Captain Xiao reached out and patted Zhao Jingshuo on the shoulder.
"Fortunately, as long as you come back, Your Highness, I will have no worries. I will be able to lead the army to wipe out the rebels."
Zhao Jingshuo looked at him, and the expression on his face suddenly became strange.
Without the joy of being rescued, he turned his head to look at the opposite camp, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face: "Well said, then this prince will not have any worries anymore."
Seeing that he was acting very abnormally, General Xiao stared at him and asked in a puzzled tone, "What did you say?"
Zhao Jingshuo suddenly turned his head and looked at him, his hair disheveled. A pair of sharp eyes are very cold. Commander Xiao was frightened by the cold light in his eyes.
Something is wrong. Why does the prince have such a look? No....
"Prince, you...no...you are not..." General Xiao reacted suddenly and the words came to his lips, but suddenly a large mouthful of blood gushed out.
"cough!"
Commander Xiao looked down at the dagger in his abdomen in disbelief, and tremblingly grabbed his hand: "You... ahem... you are not the prince!"
The fake prince smiled and said, "That's right, but it's a pity that you knew it too late."
After saying this, he grabbed the defenseless General Xiao and stabbed him in the abdomen several times. General Xiao opened his eyes wide, full of unwillingness.
He didn't expect that Zhao Fangye would play dirty tricks on him.
Reaching out to desperately grab the fake prince's sleeve, General Xiao's face was full of reluctance: "No... No..."
The soldiers behind them were still some distance away from the two of them, and the first to discover that something was wrong was General Xiao's confidant. Seeing him collapse on the ground, I immediately realized what happened!
"General! Someone is trying to assassinate me! Someone, kill the assassin!"
By the time everyone reacted, the fake prince who had attempted the assassination had already succeeded and retreated.
All of a sudden, the troops behind him surrounded him and saw General Xiao twitching on the ground and spitting blood. Suddenly, everyone was in a panic and had no leader.
Zhao Fangye saw that the time had come and immediately gave the order: "All soldiers! If you are determined to break through the enemy lines, you will die! Follow me and attack!"
