The Sishui Plain is a rare sight in the flat northern region, with some low-lying hills.
"General, the scouts report that the Southern Jiangsu army has not yet shown up."
"No rush, our falcons have been following them all along. Set up an ambush for this general."
Asule also ordered his soldiers to extinguish the torches, and Ma Fengjiao quietly lay in ambush on the hillsides surrounding the Siping Plain.
The Khan ordered him to fight and retreat, but he wanted to gain more military merits. If he could defeat the Southern Jiangsu army, he would surely become a hero of the Northern Barbarians.
He admitted that the Southern Jiangsu Army was indeed formidable twenty years ago.
But now, they are all old, and they are the army of the previous dynasty. He is confident that he can defeat them, and he does not want to let go of this tremendous achievement.
He is the Third Prince's man. Once he takes control of the Southern Jiangsu Army, the Third Prince will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with Xiao Chi and Xiao Long, and in the future...
Envisioning a glorious future, the young Asule grinned and instructed his deputy,
"Be careful, they might disguise themselves as my Northern Barbarian soldiers. Have everyone tie white cloth strips to their arms to distinguish them. Heed my orders, once the battle begins, kill them to death! Wealth and glory are within your grasp!"
"Yes, General!"
At the same time, "Xiao Long" also began to issue orders:
"We received a secret report that the Southern Jiangsu Army is disguising themselves as our Northern Barbarian soldiers to launch a sneak attack. To distinguish them, we have tied dark blue cloth strips to our arms. If you encounter anyone who doesn't look like us, don't think twice, just kill them. Understand?"
"clear!"
Xiao Zhixing took the lead, subtly shifting his direction slightly to align with the Southern Jiangsu Army behind him, and marched ahead of them, heading directly towards the Sishui Plain.
From a bird's-eye view, it is clear that "Xiao Long's" unit has taken the lead over the Southern Jiangsu Army and is about to enter Asule's encirclement.
"Bai Feng".
"We've been keeping an eye on them for a while." Bai Feng, hidden in the clouds, glided past like lightning, and the Northern Barbarian's scout falcon vanished in an instant.
On the other side.
"General Asule, they're here! A large force of cavalry is heading our way!" the scout reported excitedly.
Huh? How come it's so fast? As expected of the Lightning Southern Jiangsu Army.
"All troops, prepare!"
Asule had little doubt, because in this northern state, apart from the entire Sunan Army which was composed entirely of cavalry, only his Northern Barbarian Iron Cavalry was present.
At this time, none of our own people would come here; even the Sixth Prince's troops wouldn't be able to appear so quickly.
"General, something's definitely wrong. They've also put out their torches, and there seem to be blackish-blue strips of cloth on their arms. There are also people ahead signaling with Great Sheng flags!" the scout reported again.
"Alright! Soldiers, prepare to charge!"
On Xiao Zhixing's side.
Gu Na looked ahead and said, "Your Highness, we are almost at the Sishui Plain. We must be careful of ambushes."
There are mountains and forests here, and it's nighttime, so the Southern Jiangsu Army is best at ambushes.
"Don't worry, the scouts and White Eagle King are both here. There's nothing unusual. Look, they're signaling with flags. Let's go quickly."
As he watched the spies duck and disappear, a smile flashed in Xiao Zhixing's eyes.
Gu Na squinted and only saw a few blurry figures disappear. "Your Highness has excellent eyesight. This humble general is not so good; I can't see very clearly at night."
The "Xiao Long" troops charged into the Siping Plain, a small plain surrounded by mountains on three sides, without stopping.
"kill!!"
Asule's 40,000 men charged out from three sides in an instant, giving them no time to react. The two cavalry forces collided in the dim moonlight of the night.
Gu Na shouted, "Your Highness, be careful of an ambush!"
Xiao Long charged forward fiercely, shouting, "All soldiers, listen to my command! Kill them all!!"
"kill!"
The moonlight was bright on the night after the rain.
The great battle broke out instantly, with each side regarding the other as a blood feud, and the moment they clashed, they began to fight.
Gu Na vaguely saw the enemy general. "Your Highness, let this humble general go and meet him!"
Before even hearing "Xiao Long's" voice, he excitedly rushed forward.
However, the next moment, he looked down blankly at the arrow that had pierced through his chest from behind, and the powerful impact caused him to tumble off his horse.
He turned around in terror and saw that the prince, like him, had also been assassinated, falling off the back of the Akhal-Teke horse and instantly being swallowed up by the impact of the horse's hooves.
"Your Highness!!!"
Guna roared in terror and tried to get up.
Unfortunately, the enemy's blade ripped through his chest, and darkness and resentment completely engulfed him.
If he were awake, he would have noticed.
Asule was also attacked at the same time and was decapitated. Most of the young leaders on both sides were also beheaded.
"Kill! The enemy leader is dead! Charge with me!"
The sound, seemingly coming from nowhere, energized both sides, causing them to charge forward with frenzied ferocity, their eyes bloodshot as they stared at the strips of cloth on their arms to distinguish friend from foe.
At this moment, even if someone notices something is wrong, such as why the enemy looks so much like one of their own,
But it was too late. Driven by murderous intent, all they could do was kill. Only by annihilating the enemy could they survive.
Xiao Zhixing quickly retreated after leaving the battlefield, returning to her original appearance. Behind her was a bloody battlefield like a meat grinder, and the deaths of nearly 70,000 people could not move her.
Her eyes shone like cold stars in the darkness.
He waved to the twenty-odd men in black who had followed him out, and they returned the gesture with a bow, leaving silently as they had come.
One of them carried a familiar, bewildered figure on horseback—Guna.
Xiao Zhixing leaped onto the top-tier horse king he had secretly summoned and was waiting there, Blood Night, black as blood, and said, "Baby, let's go."
Without her command, Blood Night let out a long neigh, its four hooves whipping up the wind as it headed southwest, leaping nearly five meters in a single bound, almost skimming the ground.
Before they had run far, Bai Mei and Mo Mei appeared, "Princess!"
