The enemy soldiers began to retreat quickly.
The morale of the army led by General Huang continued to rise with the addition of Mu Yansong.
Seeing the enemy retreat, they continued their efforts and killed many more people.
It was not until the Liang King's army had retreated far away that General Huang shouted, "Don't chase the desperate enemy! Come back!"
King Liang's troops retreated, and General Huang also led his troops back to the city.
The soldiers knew Mu Yansong's identity, and as soon as they entered the city gate, they knelt down in unison.
"We pay our respects to the new emperor!"
"You've worked so hard. Get up!" Mu Yansong extended his hand and helped General Huang to his feet. "General Huang, you are all heroes. You will take your men and bring the fallen soldiers back and bury them properly. When the war is over, you will comfort their families for me."
"On behalf of the soldiers who died in battle, I thank the Emperor!"
General Huang clasped his hands together and saluted Mu Yansong.
Su Xiaoxiao ran down from the city wall and saw that Mu Yansong, Lu Ye and others were all fine and uninjured. She finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Song, the King of Liang is rebelling and will surely lead his troops to attack again. There will be no peace in the world until the King of Liang is eliminated. I want to leave the city and launch a surprise attack on their camp. Only by taking the King of Liang's head can this matter be put to an end!"
"No, this is too dangerous!"
Mu Yansong frowned and disagreed with Su Xiaoxiao's proposal.
General Huang looked at Su Xiaoxiao and felt that what she said made sense.
"Your Majesty, I believe Miss Su is right. I will immediately send someone to investigate the location of King Liang's camp. At night, I will lead a group of elite troops in a surprise attack to take King Liang's head!"
"Mu Tou, I want to go too. If King Liang doesn't withdraw his troops, we won't be able to return to Huacheng."
"Yes, I am willing to join this elite raiding force!"
Lu Lian looked at Mu Yansong, her eyes filled with determination.
General Huang looked at her and nodded silently.
The girl in front of me looked young, but her eyes and eyebrows revealed a heroic spirit.
Those eyes were even more determined.
He has been marching and fighting for many years and has seen countless people.
But he had only seen such a determined look in her eyes when he was young, in the eyes of the great general of that time.
"Brother Song..."
Su Xiaoxiao's voice brought General Huang back to his senses.
He turned to look at Mu Yansong and saw that his brows were getting tighter and tighter, as if he was hesitating.
He was about to open his mouth to persuade him again when he saw Mu Yansong nodded.
"Okay, I'll go with you!"
"Your Majesty, you cannot..."
"General Huang, please don't try to persuade me." Mu Yansong interrupted him. "My friends, for the sake of Beiyuan, risked their lives to raid Prince Liang's camp. Regardless of whether I am their friend or the new emperor of Beiyuan, I should go with them."
“Okay… okay!”
General Huang sighed and compromised.
He turned to look at the soldiers behind him and sent two spies out of the city to investigate the location of King Liang's camp.
In the afternoon, the spy returned with news.
As expected, King Liang's army did not retreat too far.
Their main camp was located less than ten miles away from the city gate.
In the early morning, General Huang led a group of elite soldiers and, together with Mu Yansong and others, ambushed near King Liang's camp.
Su Xiaoxiao climbed up the tree and used her eagle eyes to explore the terrain of the military camp.
Soon, she slid down the tree trunk again.
Her movements were so gentle that she didn't alert the enemy.
"Wait here for me. I'll sneak in and take King Liang's head. Once he's dead, there'll be chaos in the camp. Then you can take advantage of the opportunity to launch a surprise attack and rescue me."
"What do you mean, you...you want to go in alone first?"
Luye looked at Su Xiaoxiao, confused.
Didn’t they agree that they would raid together?
Why did Su Xiaoxiao want to go in and take risks alone when she got here?
Mu Yansong was also worried about Su Xiaoxiao, but he knew how fast Su Xiaoxiao was.
If they rushed in as a group, King Liang would get the news and would definitely have his soldiers drag them away while he himself rode away on horseback.
But if Su Xiaoxiao went in alone.
With her speed, she would not alert King Liang and could kill him by surprise.
Thinking of this, Mu Yansong nodded.
"Xiaoxiao, be careful!"
"Um!"
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and slowly stood up.
Luye didn't expect Mu Yansong to agree, and reached out to grab Su Xiaoxiao's wrist.
But he was a step too slow and missed.
Su Xiaoxiao rushed out so quickly that only a shadow could be seen.
"Mu Tou, are you crazy? How could you agree to let her take risks alone?"
Lu Ye growled, stood up and was about to chase Su Xiaoxiao, but was stopped by Mu Yansong.
"With your strength, you can't catch up with her. Besides, Xiaoxiao is very fast. If she sneaks into the military camp, she will definitely catch King Liang off guard. As long as King Liang is dead, his soldiers will become scattered. I am also worried about Xiaoxiao, but among us, she is the best candidate."
"Crazy, I think you are crazy!"
"You're the only one who talks too much, brat!" Lu Lian slapped Lu Ye on the back of the head. "Since the little girl said that, it means she's sure. Just stay here honestly and don't follow her and cause her trouble."
"Auntie, why are you also..."
Shikano frowned and touched the back of his head.
He could see that this group of people were all worried about Yunshui City being forced to flee.
He was the only one who was worried about Su Xiaoxiao's safety.
Under the cover of night, a figure quickly entered the military camp.
The soldier guarding the entrance to the military camp felt a gust of wind blowing and scratched his head in confusion.
"Strange, why did the wind suddenly pick up just now?"
"There's no wind! Why can't I feel it?" Another soldier slowly walked up to him and waved his hand, "Let's go! It's my turn to take over."
"Okay, then you stay here and I'll go back to rest!"
The soldier turned and left with a smile, instantly forgetting the wind that had just blown.
According to the terrain she had just seen, Su Xiaoxiao quickly found the main tent.
She quickly opened the tent curtain and walked in, and immediately saw a man sitting on a chair with a worried look on his face.
The man has a handsome appearance, but his eyes are very sharp.
Su Xiaoxiao saw him when she was standing on the city wall. He was the rebellious King Liang.
"who?"
Feeling someone coming in, the man just raised his head and found a wound on his neck.
He was so shocked that he covered his neck with his hands and widened his eyes.
With his last breath, he shouted, "Come...someone!"
Seeing that he was still alive, Su Xiaoxiao stabbed him again in the chest.
Seeing him fall, she raised her hand to check his pulse.
After making sure that he was completely dead, he turned and left.
However, as soon as she lifted the tent curtain, she saw a line of soldiers running towards her quickly.
"There's an assassin, catch her!"
