Chapter 300 A Great Battle
In Sassinlang's camp.
What should have been a pitch-black night was now illuminated by the firelight, turning it into daylight.
The small teams sent out by Tianji City have been hiding not far from the main camp these days.
They only received the order to burn the emperor's army's provisions three hours ago.
Taking advantage of the darkness and the fact that the emperor's army had suffered repeated setbacks in recent days, they easily sneaked into the camp.
They not only set fire to the emperor's army's provisions, but also two rows of tents.
As cries for help to put out the fire rang out, Sasinlang's camp descended into unprecedented chaos.
Just as Sasinlang was about to rest, he heard the noise outside and immediately realized that it was an attack by Tianji City.
"Prepare for battle! Prepare for battle!"
His generals also shouted.
Before they could even organize their defensive ranks, a loud bang rang out next to Sasinlang's camp.
Sassin was nearly knocked unconscious by the explosion...
Outside the camp, the remaining three large fire mines, made of black watermelons, were launched while the grain and fodder were burning.
The explosion of these three fire bombs threw Sasinlang's camp into even greater chaos.
Screams, the mournful neighing of warhorses, and the scathing rebukes of the generals...
Achig, wielding a long-handled sword, also charged towards them.
In front of him was a row of soldiers with small fire bombs strapped to their bodies.
As they ran forward, they lit the small fire bombs hanging from their waists and threw them out.
They'll dump people wherever there are the biggest crowds!
This is what the strategist instructed...
By the time all the small fire bombs had been fired, Sasinlang's camp was in complete chaos.
Wounded soldiers lay on the ground, along with others who wanted to run but didn't know where to go...
Aqige led the 40,000-strong army of Tianji City and reaped the rewards along the way.
Ten thousand soldiers remained in Tianji City as a precaution.
The other soldiers, wielding long-handled swords, were frantically hacking and slashing at Sasinlang's army.
Without morale and command, Sassin's soldiers were like lambs to the slaughter, their heads chopped off one by one...
Aqig was in a bloodthirsty frenzy, brandishing his longsword while searching for Sasinlang's shadow.
Soon, a group of men escorted a figure to his warhorse...
Achig recognized at a glance that the person being protected was Sasinlang.
His sworn brother...
He was also the murderer of his family...
Without a second thought, Achig seized a warhorse that was running amok in the camp and gave chase.
Upon seeing this, his guards quickly grabbed a horse and gave chase...
The Northern Hu emperor's camp had become a slaughterhouse.
The Northern Hu soldiers, realizing what was happening, also grabbed their scimitars and engaged in a fierce battle with the soldiers of Tianji City.
Everyone was in a bloodthirsty frenzy, hacking and slashing at anyone they saw...
......
The fierce battle lasted all night, and only when the sky turned a pale white did the area gradually quiet down.
The entire camp was littered with the remains of fallen soldiers.
Black smoke could be seen rising from the camp from time to time.
Shen Huaichen frowned as he watched all of this.
The war... was still too brutal.
Except for those who fled, the Northern Hu emperor's army was basically all killed.
Even those who escaped are estimated to number no more than 30,000.
At least 20,000 soldiers were also lost in Tianji City.
The aftermath of the deaths and injuries is also a huge undertaking.
However, Shen Huaichen was certain that from now on, the border town would no longer be subject to the control of the Northern Hu and would become an independent border town...
"Where is the Prince?" Shen Huaichen searched around but couldn't find Aqige.
"The prince has gone after that dog emperor," a city lord immediately said.
Shen Huaichen frowned.
"Men, immediately send two teams to provide backup."
That treacherous emperor is cunning; it would be terrible if the prince were to fall into his trap…
Before Shen Huaichen could finish speaking, a group of people rushed over from not far away.
"The prince is back! The prince is back!"
People kept shouting along the way.
Seeing Aqige swaying on his warhorse, Shen Huaichen hurriedly went to meet him.
"Your Highness..."
Looking at the scene before them, not only Achig, but also the city lords were stunned.
Achig was covered in blood, and half of his right arm had been cut off, with blood still dripping from the wound.
That's not all; Achig also suffered a cut to his left shoulder.
The blood that had flowed out had soaked through his clothes.
Seeing Aqige's pale face, Shen Huaichen quickly had someone bring him some wound medicine to stop the bleeding.
"Your Highness... what's wrong?" Shen Huaichen asked anxiously.
Just when the border town was finally seeing a new beginning, Achig suffered such a serious injury...
Achig gritted his teeth and endured the pain of the wound medicine being applied, while laughing loudly with his head thrown back.
"That dog emperor won't live much longer!"
I chopped off one of his arms and one of his legs!
He won't live much longer...
Shen Huaichen was taken aback. It turned out that this Prince Zhan had gone to challenge that dog emperor to a duel.
Before he could ask a few more questions, Achig suddenly fell backward and landed on the ground...
The joy of winning a great victory was quickly overshadowed.
Achig fell into a coma due to excessive blood loss.
All the doctors in the border town were summoned, but they still couldn't wake Achig up.
Shen Huaichen understood.
After a night of fierce fighting, coupled with excessive blood loss from injuries, Achig's body had reached its limit.
Looking at the injuries on Achig's body, Shen Huaichen was a little worried about whether he could pull through.
After all, wound infection... that's the biggest problem.
There are no anti-inflammatory drugs these days...
As Aqige fell into a coma day by day, Shen Huaichen and the city lords became anxious.
This can't go on!
Although the city lords have already taken care of many post-war matters, they are still missing a leader.
If something happens to Achig, the remaining city lords will probably fall apart again.
Back then...
Shen Huaichen didn't want his hard work of the past few years to go down the drain again.
"Mr. Du, should we invite a shaman?" a city lord suggested.
"Huh? What did you say?" Shen Huaichen didn't react at first.
The Lord of Tianji City repeated, "We're just asking the shaman to come and take a look. Maybe the prince will be alright after the shaman prays for him!"
Shen Huaichen then realized what was happening.
Oh, the Lord of Tianji City must be talking about shamanistic rituals!
Since that's the case... then let's jump!
