Chapter 206 Reunion
"The general is mighty!"
Seeing this, the soldiers behind Jiang Qingning burst into thunderous cheers and chased the Beidi soldiers even more fiercely.
Jiang Qingning met up with Qin Xiu, who also led his troops to pursue Murong Feng. The two of them tacitly understood each other and did not immediately capture and kill Murong Feng. Instead, they played like a cat and a mouse, constantly compressing Murong Feng's escape space, consuming the last of his personal guards, and forcing him to become mentally and physically broken and in a miserable state.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
Murong Feng was like a lost dog, and he desperately ordered his troops to protect him and rush south.
Right at this moment.
Just as they were about to break out of the encirclement, a highly prepared army suddenly appeared from the front, led by Pingjiang Marquis Yu Lin and his third son Yu Sheng.
"Murong Feng! Where are you escaping to!"
Yu Lin brandished his sword and shouted loudly. Although his martial arts skills were not top-notch, he was full of momentum at the moment because of his large numbers.
Murong Feng was so frightened that he dared not fight anymore. He turned his horse around and fled for his life towards the east, the only possible way to survive.
The number of Beidi soldiers behind him was getting smaller and smaller, and they were constantly divided, surrounded, and wiped out by the pursuing Dagan army.
"Turn around! Quick!"
Murong Feng no longer cared about anything else. He just whipped his warhorse madly and galloped towards the east for his life.
I don’t know how long I ran, but the shouting and screaming behind me seemed to gradually fade away.
He looked back in shock and saw that all the pursuing Dagan soldiers had stopped where they were and no longer chasing him.
They all faced east, then knelt on one knee like a tide, their faces filled with excitement and reverence, and shouted earth-shakingly:
"Welcome General Jiang back to the court!"
"Welcome back to the court, General Jiang!"
The shouts were like a tsunami, shaking the entire battlefield.
Murong Feng's heart seemed to stop beating suddenly, and a feeling of despair instantly froze him completely. He looked back stiffly at the front.
The heavy and orderly sound of horse hooves, which seemed to crush the mountains and rivers, came clearly from far away, like a death-prompting war drum.
On the horizon, the first thing that appeared was an enormous black flag with the word "Jiang" on it fluttering in the wind. Under the flag was a densely packed and well-organized elite cavalry.
At the front of the team, two riders rode side by side.
The man on the left is about fifty years old, with a little frost on his temples, a resolute face, and a gaze like lightning. He is intimidating without even being angry. He is none other than General Zhennan, Jiang Baichuan.
The young general on the right is heroic, with eyebrows very similar to Jiang Baichuan and eyes as sharp as an eagle. He is his son Jiang Qinghuai.
The father and son of the Jiang family finally arrived, and they just happened to block Murong Feng's last way to escape to the east.
Jiang Baichuan's sharp eyes swept over the disheveled and pale Murong Feng and the panicked remnants of the defeated army behind him. Without any nonsense, he pointed the long sword in his hand forward, and the sound was like thunder:
"All soldiers, listen to my orders! If the Northern Barbarians invade our territory, they will be killed without mercy!"
"Capture Northern Di Commander Murong Feng for me!"
"kill!"
"No! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Murong Feng roared unwillingly. He couldn't accept that he had been defeated so completely.
A trapped beast will still fight.
"I'll kill you! Kill you!"
A final burst of madness flashed in his eyes, and he desperately kicked his horse's belly, brandishing his long sword and rushing back towards Jiang Baichuan and his son, trying to make a last stand, even if it could only replace one person.
However, just as he rushed out.
"call out!"
An extremely sharp sound of a weapon breaking through the air suddenly came from behind him.
Three black-feathered arrows shot fiercely into Murong Feng's back.
Murong Feng's forward figure suddenly froze. He lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the blood-stained black arrowhead sticking out of his chest. The huge force almost lifted him off his horse.
Murong Feng turned his head with difficulty, his vision had begun to blur. Before he completely fell into eternal darkness, the last thing he saw was a golden figure still in the posture of drawing the bow and shooting arrows.
Jiang Qingning slowly put down the strong bow in his hand, his cold eyes passed through the battlefield, and met his dilated pupils for a moment, with no ripples in his eyes.
"Jiang, Qing, Ning..." Murong Feng opened his mouth, and large mouthfuls of blood gushed out of his mouth. The madness and unwillingness in his eyes completely solidified.
The next moment, his body tilted and he fell heavily off his horse, splashing a cloud of dust.
Murong Feng, commander of the Northern Di army, died.
Those Beidi soldiers who resisted stubbornly saw their commander being killed with their own eyes, and then saw the father and son of the Jiang family who were like divine soldiers descending from the sky. The last bit of fighting spirit in them completely collapsed.
"Surrender! We surrender!"
"Don't kill us! We are willing to surrender!"
Cries and pleas for mercy were heard one after another, and the remaining Beidi soldiers threw down their weapons and knelt down to beg for surrender.
The battlefield gradually calmed down, only the smoke and smell of blood still filled the air.
Jiang Qingning rode his horse slowly towards the east, while Jiang Baichuan and Jiang Qinghuai also rode their horses forward at the same time.
The father and daughter, the brother and sister, looked at each other from afar across the gradually calming battlefield and the surrendered Northern Di soldiers kneeling on the ground.
Jiang Baichuan looked at his daughter's blood-stained golden armor and resolute face. A flash of light flashed in his tiger eyes, and finally turned into incomparable pride and relief.
Jiang Qinghuai was so excited that he could hardly control himself and nodded vigorously at his sister.
Jiang Qingning reined in his horse, looking at his father and brother who were finally reunited, and looking at the land that their Jiang family had restored with their own hands. The corners of his lips, which had been tense all the time, finally slowly lifted up, revealing a light but extremely real smile that was enough to make the world pale in comparison.
The Northern Di were destroyed, the mountains and rivers were safe, the country was still there, and the families were reunited.
All these sacrifices and calculations are worth it in the end.
In the Dagan military camp, the officers and soldiers were making their final preparations. Now that they had captured 100,000 Beidi soldiers and horses, they had destroyed Beidi's blood and energy. It would take at least 20 years for them to recover their current combat power.
"Ning'er!"
"Sister!"
Two excited male voices sounded at the same time, causing the people standing in the middle of the military camp to shudder violently.
"Father, big brother!"
Jiang Qingning turned around, looked at the two of them, ran forward excitedly, and was hugged by the person in front of him.
"Ning'er...you have suffered..." Jiang Baichuan hugged his daughter tightly, his nose was sore, and his heart was full of joy and emotion.
"Sister, for all these years... no, my brother and father know everything you've been through. Don't worry, when we return to the capital this time, my brother and father will definitely seek justice for you!"
Jiang Qinghuai looked at the girl, whose expression was full of determination and who was no longer the childish face she used to be. He turned his head fiercely and wiped the moisture from his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Baichuan immediately let go of Jiang Qingning, looked her up and down, and couldn't help but burst into tears: "Ning'er, I'm sorry for you. For so many years, you haven't made any achievements and returned to the capital. It takes my daughter's hard work to help me, your brother and mother return to the capital. I..."
A dark light flashed in Jiang Qingning's eyes. He looked around vigilantly, and then pulled Jiang Baichuan and Jiang Qinghuai back to his tent.
Qin Xiu paused and wanted to catch up, but was blocked by Ye Xiao and An Yi who appeared on both sides of the tent door.
"General Qin, please don't disturb my master's family reunion." Ye Xiao's voice was cold.
"Hey you!" Qingzhi stared in disbelief.
"Qingzhi, go back." Qin Xiu shouted, looked deeply at the tent, turned and walked towards the middle tent.
Inside the tent.
Jiang Qingning knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Father and brother, please listen to Ning'er's words."
