Although they are in the same camp, they are now under different leaders and commanders. With disagreements arising between the two sides, they have no choice but to go to war.
Wang Jian charged through the crowd, his spear flashing, and a terrifying pressure swept out, causing many cavalrymen to stagger backward and fall to the ground.
Many people coughed up blood and lay motionless on the ground. Although they were seriously injured, their injuries were not fatal.
Wherever he went, the cavalrymen were all injured and fell to the ground, completely powerless to fight back.
Ying Ye also fought fiercely in the crowd, and soon carved a path through it.
Although these are all very powerful military units of the Qin Dynasty, their strength is still somewhat lacking compared to Wang Jian and Ying Ye.
The crowd naturally parted to make way, and Ying Ye sized up Wang Jian, who was standing not far away, his eyes slightly cold. "You are old, so don't make a futile struggle. It's best to just let him pass."
In his view, Wang Jian was old and his strength was not what it used to be, so he was no match for him after he returned from his studies.
He couldn't bear to hurt such a veteran. If Wang Jian listened to his advice and stepped aside, it would be good for everyone.
Faced with Ying Ye's advice, Wang Jian's eyes turned cold. "The best choice for this old minister is none of your concern, young master. You should be more concerned about yourself. To attempt to oppose the Great Qin is an extremely foolish decision!"
"The Great Qin Dynasty of today is far beyond the power to shake!"
Wang Jian was well aware of how powerful the Qin Dynasty was. Not only were there several powerful princes, but even Ying Zheng had awakened the Tai'a sword, making them a force capable of overwhelming any side.
Now, let alone Ying Ye alone, even if he were to unite with several other powerful forces to attack Qin, Wang Jian wouldn't panic.
Upon hearing this, Ying Ye sneered, "I am well aware of the strength of the Great Qin, and I would not be foolish enough to fight alone. So if you are worried, you should worry about the capital, since the troops there are currently weak and there is no telling what might happen."
Seeing Ying Ye's appearance, Wang Jian guessed that this guy must have some backup plan, and it must be something he was planning to do against the imperial city.
Wang Jian sighed softly, "You still don't understand the Great Qin."
The Qin Dynasty of today is not something that can be stirred up by a little wind and clouds.
Ying Ye was unimpressed by Wang Jian's appearance, saying, "Don't waste time, General Wang. The defeat you're meant to suffer will come sooner or later!"
Just as he was about to make his move, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Another group of soldiers rushed over, their leader dressed in Qin military uniform, holding a scroll of imperial edict in one hand. "Urgent edict! His Majesty's urgent edict! Obey the decree immediately!"
The chieftain reined in his horse and shouted.
Seeing the imperial edict was like seeing His Majesty. Upon hearing this, many soldiers stopped what they were doing and bowed in the direction of their leader.
Even Wang Jian bowed to the general.
Ying Ye frowned deeply, a bad feeling creeping over him. After all, the imperial edict came suddenly, as if it had been prepared in advance, and it certainly didn't seem to be in his favor.
The leader picked up the imperial edict and said, "His Majesty has decreed that all soldiers must obey General Wang Jian's command, and all orders from anyone else must be ignored!"
After speaking, the leader bowed slightly. "This is His Majesty's personal decree. General Wang, please accept the order."
Wang Jian bowed and accepted the imperial edict, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Seeing this, Ying Ye's eyes turned cold, and he shouted, "Impossible! This is impossible! This must be a fake edict, none of you should believe it!"
His soldiers looked at him without saying a word.
They didn't go all out in the battle just now, after all, they were facing former comrades-in-arms. If the two leaders hadn't disagreed and had to fight for their respective camps, they would never have started the war.
But now that the imperial edict has arrived, they have seen a glimmer of hope for a truce, so they will naturally not easily take action again.
The leader's eyes were cold and brooding. "The imperial edict bears His Majesty's seal and cannot be forged. Young master, you'd better not struggle!"
Holding the imperial edict, Wang Jian shouted, "All generals, listen to my command!"
At the command, soldiers from both sides responded in unison, "Here!"
"exist!"
Wang Jian stared intently at Ying Ye, his gaze calm. "Take down the criminal general!"
After he finished speaking, the soldiers raised their weapons and aimed them at Ying Ye. The large number of soldiers surrounded Ying Ye, and the huge difference in numbers immediately became apparent.
Upon seeing this, Ying Ye's expression froze, and he stared blankly at the scene.
He still had the upper hand just now, and he was determined to win against a veteran like Wang Jian.
But when an imperial edict arrived, the situation changed instantly. All the soldiers who had been facing him raised their weapons and turned against him, becoming his enemies.
Everything happened in an instant, leaving him completely unable to react.
After a moment of silence, Ying Ye's lips twitched, and he raised his longsword, pointing it at them. "Do you think I'm afraid just because there are more of you? Come on! Even if you kill me, the imperial city will not be safe!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Jian looked at him and said, "Nothing will happen in the capital."
Ying Ye snorted coldly, "Stop comforting yourselves. The imperial city only has so few troops. If it is attacked, it will have no chance to resist."
Wang Jian's eyes were indifferent. "Young Master, you've returned from your studies abroad. You must be very confident in your martial arts skills, right?"
Ying Ye stared at him. "What do you mean?"
Wang Jian replied, "You don't understand the strength of Great Qin, just as you don't understand my strength. You think you can overturn all ideas just because you have a little strength. I will make you realize how foolish you are in the future."
Ying Ye snorted coldly, "Stop spouting nonsense. The fall of the capital is beyond doubt, don't try to fool me!"
Wang Jian's eyes turned slightly cold. "Since that's the case, then before you learn about the strength of the Great Qin, you should learn about mine first!"
After he finished speaking, a violent aura surged around him, making him extremely tyrannical.
Sensing the power of that aura, Ying Ye's expression changed slightly.
