Upon hearing this, Prince Wei Ping'an of the Great Wei Dynasty also stood up angrily.
"Heggie, you are the real piece of trash!"
"Didn't you say that Qin Yuezhao was infected with the plague and the Liangcheng army was in chaos? Is this the chaos you were talking about?"
"Heji, you've been surveying the outskirts of Liangcheng for months, yet you haven't even figured out the situation inside the city. You've wasted so many of my Great Wei's troops. How are you going to explain this to my father?"
Hegel's face was grim.
The news of Qin Yuezhao's illness was indeed sent by a secret agent in the city; there's no way it could be false!
But given the current situation, he truly has no way of explaining it.
When Deputy General Heji saw the prince being humiliated, he immediately expressed his dissatisfaction.
"What does the Third Prince mean by this? Since it's a joint attack on the city, isn't it normal for there to be casualties?"
"Since we haven't figured out the enemy's strength, let's temporarily cease hostilities and make further plans. Why be so aggressive?"
Wei Pingan gave the person who spoke a cold look.
"Who do you think you are, daring to interrupt?"
Seeing this, Heggie quickly suppressed his anger and forced a smile.
"Third Prince, don't get angry with a brute. It was my oversight. However, there are still many Northern Barbarian spies in Liang City. How about we discuss the aftermath after I've gathered some information?"
Given the current situation, the Northern Barbarians cannot afford to break with the Great Wei.
Wei Pingan lifted his eyelids slightly.
"Heh, I'll give you one more chance. If you still can't take Liangcheng, I'll petition my father to withdraw the troops!"
"By then... I hope you will settle the debt that the Northern Barbarians owe to the Great Wei."
After saying that, he didn't even bother to look at Heji, and left with his deputy.
Watching the angry figure leave, Heggie slammed his fist hard on the seat.
"Clang!"
The carved wooden nine-dragon chair shattered instantly.
"Sound the horn to cease fire, order the secret agents to destroy Qin Yuezhao's explosives and magical weapons, and then launch a full-scale attack!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The lieutenant clasped his hands in a respectful gesture and retreated with a cold expression.
Before long, a loud and high-pitched howl rang out from the Northern Barbarian army.
Upon hearing the bugle call on the main battlefield, the Northern Barbarian army, relieved of a great burden, laid down their weapons and recklessly turned their horses around, fleeing towards the Northern Barbarian camp.
Huo Tingye drove the armored vehicle and crushed Mog's mangled body into the sand.
Hearing the bugle call signaling the retreat of the Northern Barbarians, he felt a sense of resentment.
"Damn it! We were having a really tough time fighting, and they actually backed down?"
Huo Sanbao and the others, still savoring the experience, held the oversized nail gun with disdain on their faces.
"Damn! If we had known they were this weak, we should have sent out the whole army and wiped them out!"
"That's right! Er Gouzi's father and brother were killed by the northern barbarians, and they've been clamoring to leave the city for a long time."
"General Huo, we have armored vehicles, shall we just storm their stronghold?"
Huo Tingye raised his hand to stop him, saying, "No, we shouldn't pursue a desperate enemy!"
"Besides, if we march that far, what if the Wei army launches a surprise attack on Liangcheng?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Sanbao immediately nodded.
"The general is right. We should know when to stop! Let's clean up the battlefield, collect the enemy's armor and weapons, and bury the corpses."
"Give our fallen soldiers a proper burial!"
"After three great victories, we are no longer the Liangcheng that was bullied by the northern barbarians!"
Along the way, they were overjoyed, and whenever they saw any soldiers of the Northern Barbarian army who were not quite dead, they would drive over and crush them.
Blood splattered, turning the armored vehicle red.
When they drove back to Liangcheng, Huo's army and Nan's army were already waiting on both sides of the road.
"They're back! General Huo has returned with the divine chariot!"
"We won! We won! The Northern Barbarian army has been crushed into mud!"
"Long live the gods! Long live Your Highness! Liangcheng has been defended!"
Everyone was circling around the armored vehicle, completely ignoring the sticky bloodstains on its body.
Some foundry craftsmen even wanted to go inside to see the structure and learn the forging techniques of the gods.
But Huo Tingye stopped them all.
After all, there's only one of these amazing cars in the whole world. If he accidentally touches it and causes a problem, it could hurt someone, or even if he damages the car, there won't be anyone to repair it. He doesn't dare to take that risk.
Just as everyone was chattering away, a joyful and excited voice came from behind: "Report—"
"General Huo, His Highness has awakened!"
