After regaining his composure, Xie Xun gasped for breath, his fists clenched until they cracked. Seeing more and more soldiers dying, he had no choice but to order the Xie family members protecting him, "Hurry! Run!"
Xie Xun made a prompt decision, turned around quickly, and drove the soldiers off their horses with his followers. He mounted his horse without caring about his image and galloped away first.
He had to run! Ji Wan had already reached the nearby camp. If he couldn't kill Ji Wan instantly, he had to run. A hero never suffers a loss in front of him! After all, the troops charging in front of him were not his own, so it wouldn't be a pity if they all died!
Ji Wan's expression clearly indicated that he already knew his plan. If he didn't run away, he would be the one to die! So, who on earth was the spy who actually revealed such a meticulous plan?
It must be Yao Cheng! Who else but him knows his plan from beginning to end!
Xie Xun had no idea that this was a perfect match between Ji Wan's and his conspiracies. Not only did he want to take the opportunity to get rid of Ji Wan today, but Ji Wan also wanted to get rid of Xie Xun tonight.
Both families had the ultimate goal of killing the enemy, but they didn't expect that Ji Wan would still use the teleportation array to transport 15,000 people directly to the door of Xie Xun's tent.
Xie Xun's action seemed to send a signal to his soldiers, many of whom shouted in fear: "The commander has escaped!" "The commander has left!" "The commander doesn't want us anymore!"
In an instant, the morale of the army collapsed, the soldiers stopped fighting, and fled towards the surrounding snow-covered woods.
If they were lucky enough to escape now, they could still take the opportunity to sneak back home, quickly pack up their things and run away to seek refuge with their wives and children. After all, these soldiers were forced to serve in the military. If they died, there would be no compensation for their wives and children.
Why work so hard?
Seeing this, Ji Wan's army's morale was boosted, and they kept tearing open gaps on the front line and sending their comrades in.
The ten thousand soldiers guarding the camp were no match for Ji Wan's elite troops armed with improved weapons. Within an hour, Ji Wan had killed everyone in the camp except the captives.
Only a few siege vehicles remained, lying quietly on the ground like giant beasts.
When they got close and were about to start fighting, Ji Wan realized that the number of people was wrong and acted decisively, sending a telepathic spell to Lou Shao.
Let him send troops urgently to quickly eliminate the 10,000 soldiers at the city gate, and then go to find the remaining 50,000 soldiers.
On Ji Wan's side, the remaining enemy soldiers were fleeing in all directions. She led a small team to pursue them, making sure that all those who could be caught up were captured before turning back to reunite with the main force.
Before he could even sit down in the tent, his soldiers came trotting in with a report: "Report! Your Highness, we've captured two prisoners!"
"Bring him up!" Ji Wan waved her hand, knowing that the captives who could be notified to come here must not be ordinary captives.
Two men in gorgeous clothes were escorted in. Ji Wan narrowed her eyes, raised her head and looked carefully. It was Xie Xun and his attendants.
"Oh, it's Mingyu. Mingyu, how did you become a prisoner~" The tone was so infuriating that it could only make one die.
Xie Xun gritted his teeth angrily upon hearing this, his eyes bloodshot: "Ji Wan, what did you give Yao Cheng to make him pass on information for you like this!"
"What do you mean by passing on information? Why does Mingyu think I bribed Grand Commander Yao Cheng? Hahaha, that's ridiculous. Mingyu, he's been following you for how long? Don't you even have the most basic trust? I just figured you wouldn't let this piece of fat meat like me pass you by so easily."
During a banquet with Xie Xun, Ji Wan found out what kind of person Xie Xun was.
Even when he was fighting and his head was about to be chopped off at any second, he still brought a band of dancers with him. This shows that in his heart, he believed that this battle would not be difficult at all, and would even be quite easy.
Moreover, if Lou Shao had not brought his troops here and stopped this man from attacking Ji Wan, Ji Wan might have already started a life-and-death battle with him.
People who underestimate their enemies are definitely the easiest people for Ji Wan to deal with.
From beginning to end, this person never sent out troops to test or study the immortal magic in Ji Wan's hands.
The only battle was just a robbery when the thunder was coming.
This shows that this person is definitely not a professional and powerful military strategist.
Of course, Ji Wan is not either.
They were all complete outsiders, outsiders fighting outsiders. But Ji Wan, an outsider, had a vast amount of spiritual power and countless formations with great lethality!
The fact that he was able to get involved in the rebellion to seize the throne also proves that Xie Xun and Ji Wan are both greedy jackals and tigers.
Putting herself in his shoes, if Ji Wan knew that the enemy only had 10,000 soldiers to cooperate with her 70,000 troops, she would definitely take the opportunity to take the risk and eat them up.
"Ji Wan, don't be so complacent! Lou Shao is no pushover either! He was personally appointed as a First-Rank General of Cavalry by the late emperor. He will definitely not let you go! Xie Shi won't let you go either! You'll soon have to come to the prisoner camp to accompany me! Hahaha! You'll have to come and accompany me sooner or later!"
Turning his head to look at Ji Wan's retainers sitting around him, Xie Xun sarcastically said, "With all these good-for-nothing friends you've acquired by spreading your legs, you still want to fight for that position?
Ji Wan, forget it! There has never been a precedent for a woman ascending the throne in this world. Fighting for power and profit is nothing more than making wedding clothes for the Ningxi Kingdom!
Xie Xun did not hesitate to curse him viciously. He was now a prisoner. If Xie Shi could not threaten Ji Wan, he would die anyway. He might as well satisfy his desire to talk and be happy before dying!
Even though he was pinned down and tied up, unable to move, and kneeling in front of Ji Wan, Xie Xun's neck was still straight.
Not only did he not keep his promise, Ji Wan also did not keep her promise to join him in dealing with Lou Shao. She, Ji Wan, had indeed outmaneuvered him, giving him a severe defeat.
The subordinates in the tent all frowned. The scholars were really disgusted by Xie Xun's blunt and dirty curses.
"As the legitimate son of the Xie family, you are so unmannerly. It's really a disgrace to the entire Xie family!" Pinching his nose in disgust, Cui Min retorted without any hesitation.
Not only Cui Min, but all the subordinates looked unhappy and turned their eyes to Xie Xun at the same time.
Insulting the lord they are loyal to is no different from pointing at the noses of these subordinates and scolding them!
This was because the hot-tempered Lin Chanhua and Mr. Lin were not present due to matters related to the academy, and the tent was filled with men. Otherwise, this guy would have been beaten long ago for humiliating his mistress, who was also a woman. They all wanted to beat Xie Xun...
"Bang!" Oh no, he was indeed beaten, it was Yang Guan. Jin Lie and Gong Xu, who was also "burning his buttocks", stood up at the same time, but neither of them was as fast as Yang Guan.
