The Western Region army was surrounded and encircled by the Lanhai army. In just a moment, the originally evenly matched situation on the battlefield was completely reversed.
The Lanhai army was unstoppable and defeated the Western Region army, leaving them with no chance of resistance.
However, even their route of escape was completely blocked.
The Western Regions army had only 20,000 to 30,000 men, but the Lanhai army had a full 50,000 men.
Especially when the army in the city appeared, the entire morale of the Western Region army began to shake.
How could the general in the Western Regions be willing to accept this?
"Cunning Central Plains man!"
He rode his horse angrily and rushed forward with a knife in hand.
Look at the tall figure wearing a mask with a green mouth and fangs, who is also killing the enemy in the front line.
Is that King Lan Hai?
It looks nothing special!
They don’t have the same sturdy bodies as the warriors from the Western Regions.
The face is hidden under the mask, and it looks like a shameful thing!
He will kill King Lan Hai today and destroy the prestige of these 50,000-strong army!
It’s time to restore the morale of their Western Region army!
The face of the Western Regions general was filled with the ambition to win. He quickened his pace, passed through the crowd, raised his sword and shouted: "King Lan Hai, give me your life——"
As soon as the man with green face and fangs in the mask raised his head, the knife was swung away like an afterimage.
After just two moves, the general covered his neck with his hands, his eyes wide open.
How...how is it possible...
While his look of horror was still on his face, his entire head fell off his neck with a "gurgle".
Then a spear lifted up its head and held it high above the spear.
The blood was still flowing, and the spear was raised to its highest point.
Then someone shouted: "The Western Region General has been beheaded by King Lan Hai himself - you Western Region people, why don't you surrender quickly -"
"The Western Regions' General has been beheaded by King Lan Hai himself—"
"Western Region Army, surrender immediately—"
Soon, the roar spread throughout the entire battlefield.
All the Western Region soldiers saw the head held high.
Even the general is dead!
Once the general dies, who will lead them?
This group of Lanhai troops killed them all the way from the city of Da Chu to the border. The original army of 300,000 was now reduced to less than 30,000.
Are we going to completely slaughter them today at this border crossing, which is only a hundred days away from home?
As the Lanhai Army's cheers became more and more passionate, the morale of the Western Region Army completely collapsed at this moment.
The dropped sword.
Fallen flagpole.
And beneath the splashing horses' hooves, the Western Regions' ambitions for the Central Plains have been vigorous for nearly a hundred years...
Leng Dian was still reaping the fruits of the Western Regions troops who were resisting to the death, when suddenly a familiar long sword came out and snatched a head.
Leng Dian looked up in surprise: "Zhui Yu!?"
Zhui Yu chuckled and said, "It's me, the young master!"
"Leng Dian, I haven't seen you for a few months. Have you missed your brother?"
Leng Dian's usually stern face also showed a smile: "Kill him first, talk later!"
After Zhuiyu and Lengdian cleared out this area, they returned to the main force together.
Leng Dian led Zhui Yu through the crowd and upon seeing Po Feng's figure, he immediately shouted, "Po Feng! It's Zhui Yu, Zhui Yu is back!"
Pofeng also raised his face full of surprise.
"Chasing the rain?"
"Zhuiyu is back? Doesn't that mean——"
The three of them looked at the tall figure in the crowd, and saw that the back of the man who was killing the enemy also froze noticeably.
He slowly turned around and took off the green-faced, fang-covered mask on his face.
A stunning face, without a single speck of blood, showed a slight emotion: "Zhuiyu, you're back."
Who else could this person be but Duan Rongshi?
He is Prince Su.
It is the King of Yue.
He is also the King of Lanhai.
It was Duan Rongshi who defeated the people of the Western Regions to the point that they couldn't even retreat to the border.
Zhui Yu's eyes filled with tears: "Yes, Your Highness, I and the young lady... no, it was the princess. I have fulfilled my mission and brought her back safely!"
Duan Rongshi: "Where is she?"
"Take me to see her!"
Zhui Yu thought about the hardships along the way, and how hard it must have been for the princess to carry the little master in her belly, and how she had braved all the hardships and dangers along the way, and she suddenly choked up.
But he didn't tell the truth right away.
He just said: "Your Highness, I deserve to die."
"I will take you to see the princess right away."
He said damn it because he knew that His Highness would punish him severely for concealing the truth.
However, this time, even if I have to be beaten with a hundred boards, I will be willing to do it!
Because he understood that if the girl had not made the right decision, if the girl had not concealed the fact that she was pregnant, His Highness would not be here killing the enemy at this moment.
The overall situation in the world will change completely as a result.
Da Chu and Mantuo City will also be caught in an absolutely dangerous dilemma.
It can be seen from the fact that His Highness gave up the throne that was within his reach for the girl that in his heart, the girl is the most important person in the world.
That's why Zhui Yu risked his life to agree to keep this matter secret with Li Qingluo.
But now that the end has come, it is impossible for Zhuiyu to say that he is not weak-kneed and guilty.
"Wei Zhaolie!"
Duan Rongshi shouted in a low voice.
A young figure then rushed forward on horseback, gun in hand.
"Your Highness."
This person was none other than the former crown prince of Wei Wuhou.
After he was rescued by Duan Rongshi and Li Qingluo, he had been waiting for the opportunity to turn things around and even take revenge on the entire Wei Wuhou Mansion.
So on the eve of the expedition, Duan Rongshi personally brought him to see the Emperor of Chu.
