But Chengtian swordsmanship is all about speed. If you want to compete in attack speed with Chen Yunxuan, who was a disciple of Chengtian Academy, you will undoubtedly hit a wall.
The barbarian leader was about to attack Chen Yunxuan's right side, but was quickly blocked by the other side.
The spear was quickly retracted, and then attacked Chen Yunxuan's other side, but was also blocked by the opponent.
After several rapid attacks in succession, the barbarian leader's offensive finally eased due to fatigue.
Chen Yunxuan seized the opportunity and stabbed the opponent's weak spot with a sword.
The barbarian leader noticed Chen Yunxuan's intention, but it was too late to dodge, so he had to block it with his spear.
But Chen Yunxuan's attack was extremely powerful, obviously beyond the level of a ninth-grade martial master!
The spear failed to block the attack and instead injured its owner.
The barbarian leader quickly retreated, and his deputy stepped forward to protect the leader.
Just as the leader was about to advance and continue the attack, a barbarian soldier reported bad news to him.
"Report to the chief, there are new Xia troops over there!" the soldier reported.
"What!" The barbarian leader was surprised. What was Zhang Yi doing?
"Where is Zhang Yi?" The barbarian leader asked about the situation of his allies, but the soldier didn't know.
Instead, it was the enemy leader, Chen Yunxuan, who gave the answer: "Oh, Zhang Yi's army has been defeated by another army from Wangchen County. Don't count on them anymore. Just surrender!"
The barbarian leader clenched his fists, he didn’t expect Zhang Yi to be so incompetent!
Moreover, Zhang Yi actually lied to him, saying that the Xia army had a loose style and was vulnerable.
But the fact is that he led an army with extremely strong combat capabilities, and even the enemy commander was stronger than him!
"Retreat!" The barbarian leader immediately changed direction without caring whether this move would sell out Zhang Yi and the others.
Lin Tongxi also rushed over at this time, concerned about Chen Yunxuan's situation: "Brother Yunxuan, how is it?"
"We are fine, Brother Tongxi, don't worry. Has Zhang Yi been defeated?" Chen Yunxuan asked Lin Tongxi.
"Zhang Yi? He walked right into the trap we set for him. It's a pity we haven't caught him yet." Lin Tongxi lamented, then added, "But Brother Yue has already led his troops in pursuit."
"Although we haven't caught Zhang Yi yet, at least we have won this battle, and we have an explanation to our superiors." Chen Yunxuan breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Zhang Yi's forces would be too powerful, so that the Wangchen County army would be defeated again.
If they are defeated, all the efforts of Chen Yunxuan and his team will be in vain.
Chen Yunxuan and Lin Tongxi returned to the tent to rest and sent part of the troops to pursue the barbarian leader.
After a while, the two of them waited for the general who had returned from the pursuit.
Wang Shenghan captured the barbarian leader, and Xiaojiu returned with Zhang Yi.
"Damn it! Let me go! Otherwise, our tribe will not forgive you Xia dogs!" the barbarian leader roared.
Lin Tongxi sighed helplessly. The enemy has already become very powerful, yet you are still so stubborn.
The most straightforward way is naturally to kill the barbarian leader, but this will undoubtedly intensify the conflict between the two tribes.
Lin Tongxi and Chen Yunxuan whispered a few words, and then on behalf of Chen Yunxuan, he announced the solution for the barbarian leader: "Temporarily lock up the barbarian leader and use him to negotiate with their tribe later."
The problem of the barbarians can be left to be solved later, but Zhang Yi’s problem must be dealt with as soon as possible.
According to Xiaojiu's description, the barbarians from Lingwu County did not come to cause trouble, so he took some soldiers to block Zhang Yi's way.
This interception actually saved them some trouble!
Lin, Chen and Yue did not expect that Xiaojiu was so capable that he could capture Zhang Yi with only dozens of soldiers.
"If you want to kill me, just kill me! Don't waste time here!" Zhang Yi shouted loudly.
In response to this, several people decided to detain him temporarily.
However, unlike the barbarian leader, Zhang Yi will be handed over to Ding Nanjing for trial.
After all, the rebels organized by the Zhang family once led the four counties of Xiangnan to revolt, and only Ding Nanjing could handle this matter.
What's more, Ding Nanjing is the number one person in Xiangzhou and Chen Yunxuan's immediate superior, so it is most appropriate to let Lord Ding make the decision.
After resting for a while, the army of Wangchen County planned to return home.
But just in case, Lin Tongxi still sent Xiaojiu to patrol the border between Wangchen County and Lingwu County.
This investigation revealed a piece of information worth noting.
"Reporting to the three lords, I have found a mountain with a cave inside. There seems to be light in the cave."
"I was curious, so I took people in to check it out."
"But I discovered... there's actually a village behind the cave!"
