Chapter 146 Return to the Legion
Sixty miles away, Xianhe Pier, the south bank.
The broken bridge was restored, and the soldiers of Zhennan Pass had crossed the river. In addition, General Luo Kai died in battle and the news of the large-scale defeat of the Nanfeng defenders spread here.
The main general shivered, and without hesitation, he left his baggage and took his subordinates to flee south along the coastline, completely ignoring the densely packed ships on the sea surface preparing to dock.
If they don’t leave, once Yunchui people who have crossed the Xianhe River arrive and complete the encirclement. Not to mention that they can’t stop the ship from landing, the 20,000 people will have to be left at the entrance of the Xianhe River.
This general is worthy of being from Huchouguan. He is already quick to make decisions and willing to give up the hero. However, they ran south for less than fifteen miles. The spy who was exploring the way forward ran back with a look of despair.
"General, the main force of Xingluo Legion suddenly appeared twenty miles ahead and stopped us."
Xingluo Legion, still the main force?
The main general was dizzy.
After coming back to his senses, he didn't care about asking where the other party came from. He glanced at the map quickly, and finally closed his eyes and pointed in the direction of the capital with difficulty.
Twenty thousand people quickly turned west.
Before they could walk twenty miles away, the sound of horse hooves sounded in front of them.
The Lord of Nanfeng took a look through the Chaoyang.
There were not many people in front of them, only two thousand. But the flying military flag made them unable to help but despair.
One sword and one sword block the stars.
Another star-fall military flag?
The commander of the Nanfeng general stared at the word "Ren" next to the Xingluo Army Flag, and his teeth were almost bleeding.
The enemies looked at each other and were very jealous.
It turned out that it was the bastard who touched the Huchou Valley and the bastard who guarded the opposite of the river last night.
Ren Ning had long expected that the defenders at the dock could not stay there, and the group had already rode their horses and rushed over to block the front.
The dust and smoke rolled on the post road farther away, and the soldiers of Zhennan Pass and Baihua County that followed him.
"General." The tall Feng Hu rushed over on a horse. He glared at Ren on the flag: "I'll wait for a while for this Xingluo's surname to be Ren."
The chief general of Nanfeng pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Go."
Although there are few people in front of you, the army is uniform and all are cavalry, so you can tell at a glance that it is not easy to mess with.
As long as they are targeted by them and harassing each other hard, the team's speed will be difficult to increase.
It’s also good to send someone to slapp their spirits.
drive!
Feng Hu rushed over while running, shouting in his crappy clouds, "I heard for a long time that the generals of the Xinglu Legion are like clouds. General Ren dares to come out to fight me, Feng Hu!"
Hold!
Beside Ren Ning, Lei Er's voice sounded, "These bastards are dead, do they still want to fight one-on-one?"
At dawn, he finally returned to the team. He just had some colors on his body and was chewing broad beans coldly on Ben Lei's back.
Ren Ning glanced at Lei Er and said nothing.
"General, I'll go and meet this Feng Hu for a while!" Xiao Gang's hands were itchy and he volunteered.
Ren Ning looked at the changed silver spear in his hand and smiled and said, "What are you involved in? He called me by name."
After saying that, Ren Ning rode the chasing wind to meet him.
Compared to the imperial capital, Xiao Gang's martial arts did make great progress at this time, but he was still a little far from Lei Er who had been working hard for many years, let alone him.
The distance between the two sides was a bit far, and the two horses ran for a while before they could see each other clearly.
Feng Hu looked at Ren Ning's young face under the helmet and was a little disbelief: "You are General Ren?"
"It's me!" Ren Ning nodded.
He stopped talking, drove his horse and rushed forward and pulled his bow and shot arrows.
call out!
clang!
The loud noise rang out, and the first arrow, Feng Hu, quickly blocked it. However, before he could react, the second one had already penetrated deeply into his neck.
"You..." Feng Hu, who was waving his big sword, was so angry that he fell to his horse and died with his eyes closed.
"General is mighty! General is mighty!" The Xingluo soldier, who was less than two thousand, cheered with his weapons.
口张!
Two thousand horses and war horses felt the joy of their masters and neighed together.
hey-hey!
Ren Ning picked up his black arrow, turned around and ran away.
The people of Nanfeng behind him looked at each other, looking at Xing Luoren who were cheering and cheering opposite him, and could not believe that his general was dead like this.
Back to Lei Er and his men, Ren Ning did not order an attack.
The opponent is already desperate, so there is no need to fight the trapped beast!
Liang Rushi knew Ren Ning's archery skills well, and was not surprised at all.
He leaned over and reminded: "General, if you destroy the group of people in front of you, there will be only the last forty thousand left in the 200,000 people in Huchou Pass."
Ren Ning nodded.
The initial goal set by the Xingluo Legion was to destroy the garrison in Huchou Pass and destroy the grain-producing areas near the capital. The goal is almost achieved.
"Lao Liang, what you said is wrong!" Lei Er smiled and raised a finger, "To be precise, there are only ten thousand left."
He told the story of the Nanfeng Prince Nanfang's fishing tax, and Zhang Fu brought 30,000 troops to protect him.
"According to the general and General Guan, we Yunchui is responsible for eliminating the living forces near the Nanfeng Capital. As for encirclement and suppression of the prince far south, it is the two small countries of Wanxiang and Baoxiang in the west."
In this way, unless the three countries can completely give up prejudices and hatred, or one of them destroys the other two, there will be no peace in the south.
"What a despicable plot." Xiao Gang chuckled his mouth, "But I like it."
Ren Ning glanced at the western sky lightly, not surprised at all.
Even if there are no two countries in the west, Wanxiang and Baoxiang, Yunchui can easily teach Nanfeng a lesson.
Their troops were just icing on the squat.
Moreover, with this letter of fame, the two countries can at least scrape some good things from Nanfeng, such as the iron ore on Mount Xian to the west.
But if the two countries had turned a blind eye to Wei Junqian's request, Yun Chui would not have minded slapping them a few times after teaching them a lesson.
Because the journey is long, their country may not be destroyed, but it will never feel that it is better to be at the gate of the city.
After all, they will send people north to take advantage of the clouds over the years.
Several people were chatting while alert.
It was just blocked on the road, neither attacking nor giving way.
Soon, people from Zhennan Pass and Baihua County finally arrived and quickly blocked the surrounding area.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Just after sending people to negotiate, and after learning that surrendering can save one's life, the Nanfeng army gave up resistance one after another.
Ren Ning looked at it quietly and thought of a sentence in his mind: A soldier who defeated others without fighting.
Ren Ning and others did not need to care about accepting surrendered troops and guarding prisoners. After he asked his subordinates to rest and feed the horses, he took a few personal guards to the beach.
It's time to return to the main force.
The speed of chasing the wind was very fast. In a short while, Ren Ning saw several other dusty military flags floating in front of him.
After revealing their identity, several of them were taken to Guan Luping and several other generals.
Ren Ning turned over and dismounted, bowed and shouted loudly: "I have met all the generals!"
"No need to be polite." Guan Luping stepped forward and patted his shoulder with satisfaction, "You guys, we have heard about you in Huchou. Sure enough, I'll read it right."
The central generals and several deputy generals next to him nodded in admiration.
"I am young, but this time I have made great contributions to breaking the Huchou Pass. When I write a letter of merit, I must not be humble for him."
"That's natural." Guan Luping smiled.
He only felt that his hands were itchy. If the army hadn't been rushing to go, he would have wanted to take out his erhu and play a song.
"What is the most important thing in this era? Talent! This kid is one of the most outstanding talents under my command. He will never treat him badly in the battle report."
"Dear generals are joking." Ren Ning shook his head quickly, "The reason why Huchou Pass was broken so smoothly is more because we have the right time, place, people and the plan of all parties before the war is appropriate."
"In addition, the generals and the divine weapons came from the sky to make a big fuss in the capital of Nanfeng. The King of Nanfeng was scared and summoned most of the garrisons back. In addition, the soldiers from Zhennan Pass and Baihua County siege to attack the city with great utmost mercy, and then they succeeded."
"The boy has no credit, he just does his best."
Several generals looked at each other in surprise.
Ren Ning's soberness made them more satisfied.
The chief general of the central army, Mo Dingshan, spoke: "Ren Ning is right. The reason why he was able to break through Huchou Pass so smoothly is that all parties are indispensable, and everyone has tried their best."
He changed his words: "But you don't need to be too humble, either. Everyone sees it. If you can, it's OK, it's OK."
Ren Ning laughed awkwardly and stopped talking.
The few people made a few more noises before they dispersed and prepared to lead their troops to Nanfeng Capital.
After they walked away, Guan Luping said concernedly: "Lei Er was a little injured, are you okay, kid?"
Ren Ning slapped his chest with a bang, "Thank you for your concern, most of his subordinates are commanding or avoiding the arrows, and they are not injured."
"That's good." Guan Luping smiled and nodded with satisfaction.
He is one of the people who know Ren Ning's archery best. With that bow with a very long range, as long as he is targeted by this kid, he probably won't know how the other general himself died.
As he spoke, Nanfeng Capital was already far away.
