Jiang He delivered a spinning kick, sending Sun Chi sprawling face-first into the mud.
"So what if I hit you? I'm still going to kill you." Jiang He really wanted to kill him at this moment.
Those are two cities!
The people there are suffering terribly.
The Nanning Kingdom has always been ruthless in its burning, killing, and looting.
It's all because of that beast, Sun Chi.
Sun Chi was dazed and confused from the beating, his eyes bloodshot. "Jiang He, even with Prince Yu as your backer, you can't go this far."
Jiang He said, "Think about why the prince wants your life?"
Sun Chi was shocked. "What did you say?"
The chill emanating from behind made him uneasy.
He turned around and saw Prince Yu holding a sword, looking at him with icy eyes.
“Your Highness…” Sun Chi’s eyes widened.
He was filled with unease. Had the prince found out about that matter?
No...impossible...
When he fired the arrows, his trusted men were surrounding him, and he killed several soldiers who saw it.
It's impossible for the information to leak out.
With this in mind, Sun Chi felt relieved.
"What does Your Highness mean by this?" Sun Chi asked, trying to appear calm.
"Sun Chi, you have some nerve! How dare you betray your comrades on the battlefield!" The Prince of Yu's voice was filled with undisguised anger.
Sun Chi was trembling with fear. How could the prince know?
He calmed himself down; without evidence, the prince could not easily convict him.
"Bring him up!" Lin Muheng ordered.
Five burly men were brought in bound.
Sun Chi was dumbfounded.
“You…you all…” Sun Chi stammered.
These were all his personal guards.
They provided cover for the sneak attack that Sun Chi suddenly unleashed.
At this time, Sun Yuan was also invited.
Completely different from the appearance Lin Muheng saw when he first arrived, Sun Yuan was unshaven and looked dejected, without a trace of the spiritedness of a soldier.
Lin Muheng frowned.
Sun Yuan looked at Sun Chi, and almost didn't recognize Sun Yuan with his bruised and swollen face.
He looked at Sun Chi suspiciously, then at Lin Muheng, "Your Highness, what is the meaning of this?"
After all, we are family, so naturally we are of the same blood and lineage.
The prince has already demoted them to soldiers, isn't the punishment over yet?
"Speak!" Jiang He kicked his personal guard.
The guard glanced at Sun Chi, kowtowed, and said, "Master, I'm sorry."
Sun Chi's eyes widened in fury, "How dare you!"
The guards stopped looking at him. When their master pulled out an arrow and pointed it at General Sun, they were all stunned.
But they only follow their master's lead.
The master must have his reasons for doing this.
They spontaneously surrounded their master, blocking the view of others.
But someone still saw it.
Those men were so shocked that they forgot to fight.
The guards, without hesitation, killed those men.
At this point, the scene became chaotic.
Those behind naturally assumed that enemy troops had infiltrated their ranks.
Those people were mistaken for spies from an enemy country.
General Sun was lucky; he was wounded in the shoulder. At this point, the tide had turned, and Sun Yuan led his troops in a disarray, retreating over a hundred li and losing two cities.
They watched helplessly as flames soared into the sky over both cities.
This was a spontaneous act by many civilians to burn grain, preventing the enemy from looting it.
The guards explained the whole story in detail.
Sun Yuan stood there, stunned.
He couldn't believe that Sun Chi could be so ruthless.
This is a battlefield. You can settle any grudges behind closed doors. In that battle, Daqing suffered a crushing defeat, with countless soldiers killed or wounded, and the people in the city living a life worse than death.
Sun Yuan looked around, then rushed to Ye Feng, trying to draw the sword from his waist.
He had only one thought in his mind: Sun Chi deserved to die, and he wanted to kill him.
The night wind pressed down on the sword hilt.
With Your Highness here, dealing with Sun Chi is Your Highness's business.
Sun Yuan had no choice but to rush up and punch and kick Sun Chi.
"If Grandfather knew he had a grandson like you, he'd turn his coffin open and beat you to death. Die! Do you know how many people you've killed? No wonder you wouldn't let me charge; you wanted to kill me yourself! You beast! How could the Sun family have such a heartless and insane person like you..."
Sun Yuan beat and cursed at Sun Chi, who then fled in terror.
"Alright! Drag him away and deal with him according to military law!" Lin Muheng ordered.
Sun Yuan cried like a child, "I was blind, I'm guilty. I should have killed him long ago, then this disaster wouldn't have happened."
Having lost two cities, Sun Yuan felt guilty all along.
The people there were suffering terribly, and he always thought it was because of his own poor decisions.
Little did they know that it was Sun Chi who was behind it all.
Sun Chi knelt down with a thud, "Your Highness, spare my life!"
Prince Yu glanced at him and snorted coldly, "Drag him away and behead him as a warning to others."
The soldiers immediately stepped forward and dragged Sun away.
Sun Chi's howl echoed in the sky, making everyone's heart skip a beat.
Lin Muheng sighed inwardly. The Sun family had become so corrupt, with constant internal strife. How could such an army possibly win a battle?
At this moment, Sun Yuan stood like a wooden statue in the tent, shouting, "Give him fifty lashes, and execute him after the battle is over!"
Lin Muheng spoke.
Sun Yuan misjudged people and failed to conduct a thorough investigation afterward, which constitutes serious dereliction of duty! Fifty lashes are not unjust.
"Drag them out and behead them!" Lin Muheng pointed at the five guards. Unlike Sun Chi, they didn't beg for mercy; they were true men, and not one of them pleaded for mercy.
