From the time King Nan Feng turned around and prepared to go to the east exit of the city, and now four of the five Imperial Guards were dead and one was injured, it only took two cups of tea.
Ren Ning led the ashen-faced King Nan Feng and more than a dozen ministers Pei Ruhai out of the ground.
The battle outside had just ended, and the Starfall Legion was shouting orders to collect prisoners and clean up the battlefield.
The exit of the secret passage is in the center of the bamboo forest. Although the bamboo forest is not big, it somewhat blocks the view, so no one noticed it for a while.
Boom!
Ren Ning was too lazy to shout and directly knocked the bamboo with his saber.
The strange noise quickly alerted the people outside.
"Whoever is inside, please abandon your weapons and surrender. Otherwise we will set fire to the bamboo forest."
They first asked the question in Yunchui dialect, and then stammered again in Nanfeng dialect.
Ren Ning quickly replied loudly: "It's me. Starfall Army's 5th Forward Battalion, Ren Ning! I captured several Nanfeng officials."
There was an uproar outside, and the voice became cheerful: "General Ren, it really sounds like General Ren."
Ren Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
These voices are all a bit unfamiliar, but the one who calls him General should be the first or second battalion of soldiers forward.
After a while, more than ten Xingluo soldiers rushed into the bamboo forest and surrounded the prisoners Ren Ning had captured.
When they saw the prisoner's attire in Dingqing, they were stunned.
"Damn it! General, do you think this is King Nan Feng? He has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks."
"These clothes belong to the Prime Minister of Nanfeng. It turns out Pei Ruhai, the traitor, looks like this. Look, I'll knock out his old teeth with one punch."
"These are at least second-grade officials."
…
Seeing the ferocious-looking soldier, Pei Ruhai and others were so frightened that they spoke quickly.
"Several generals all say that Yunchui is a country of etiquette. My king is the lord of Nanfeng, and his status is equivalent to the title of the prince of the Yunchui Empire. You must not come here randomly, and you must treat me with courtesy."
"That is, a gentleman uses his words but not his words. Oh, bah! A gentleman uses his words but not his words. You must not do anything random, lest you insult the elegance of scholars."
…
However, the soldiers looked at each other in confusion and had no idea what they were talking about.
Ren Ning laughed: "Don't do anything yet. These old men are heinous guys. You have to keep an eye on them. We have to arrest them and bring them back to the country for trial."
"You're lucky." The soldiers cursed a few times, and then they forced themselves not to take action.
However, when they were tied up, they were tied up one by one without any courtesy, so much so that King Nan Feng and the others almost couldn't breathe.
The prisoners were escorted all the way back to the western suburbs camp happily.
Only the army general Wei Junqian was sitting in the camp.
As soon as he heard that King Nanfeng had been captured by Ren Ning, he quickly walked out of the Chinese army's tent.
"Are you okay, kid?" As soon as he came up, Wei Junqian ignored Prince Nan Feng and others on the side and punched Ren Ning's shoulder unceremoniously.
This kid has been causing trouble in the city. If it weren't for him, I don't know how much blood of the good man Yun Chui would have been shed if he wanted to break through Song Ding City.
Especially when breaking through the northern city head, Ren Ning's every move was watched by Li Hebai of Zhennan Pass.
After Ren Ning jumped off the city wall, Li Hebai was busy killing the enemy, and Wu Xia paid attention to his whereabouts. All he knew was that Ren Ning was chased by countless Nanfeng Forbidden Army who were gnashing their teeth. It was not clear whether he was alive or dead in the end.
After finally breaking through the city, theoretically Ren Ning should be safe. However, after so long, there is still no news about him.
Guan Luping was so anxious that he had just dispersed the Nanfeng Central Army who had abandoned the city and fled. He quickly led people into the city to search for Ren Ning's whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, it would appear in the south of the city now.
"Thank you, General, for keeping in mind that everything is well with Ren Ning."
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back." Wei Junqian couldn't help but look at the strapped-up King Nan Feng next to him coldly, "Ignore other things, you go back to the camp to eat and have a good rest. We'll talk about everything after you wake up.
.”
"Yes!" Ren Ning nodded, but still whispered in Wei Junqian's ear the news about the secret passage of Nanfeng Palace.
"Very good." Wei Junqian nodded, "I'll send someone to get it right away, and I'll bring your bow and arrows back with me."
After thanking Wei Junqian, Ren Ning returned to the forward camp.
But instead of going to the barracks to eat and sleep, he moved to the stables.
"General Ren? It's really you!" The head of the forward nutrition horse limped out to greet him: "Great, you are finally back!"
"You don't know how bad Zhui Feng can be. He has seen all the war horses go out frequently these days, and only he and a few other horses were left behind. They kept making trouble. Later, when I went to feed..."
"Look!"
The trough pulled up the trousers, revealing a bruised calf, "If it hadn't recognized me and stopped its strength in time, otherwise I would never have thought of standing up in this life."
Ren Ning comforted the butcher in a funny yet embarrassed manner, gave him some money as compensation, and then entered the stable.
There were only a few war horses in the huge stable, most of them standing there dejectedly.
Except for Ren Ning, their owners were either killed in battle or seriously injured and dying, and most of them could no longer fight on horseback.
"Chasing the Wind!" Ren Ning waved his hand.
The tall dark horse perked up.
It suddenly raised its head and saw the familiar face of its owner.
咴咴咴.
Zhui Feng raised his hooves and screamed, as happy as a child.
Ren Ning ran over laughing, holding the horse's head and stroking it lovingly over and over again.
"Come on!" He gave the mount a carrot as a snack: "Stop it, I'll take you out for a spin."
One man and one horse walked happily outside the camp.
As soon as we arrived at the gate of the camp, we met Guan Luping, who was sweating profusely and hurried back.
"General!" Ren Ning moved out of the way.
Call!
Before the horse could stop, Guan Luping jumped off his mount, pointed at Ren Ning and yelled: "You won't return to camp after completing the mission, and you won't be willing to send the news back. Are your wings stiff?"
While he was cursing, he looked up and down at the subordinates in front of him, and then he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ren Ning was no different.
Surrounded by Guan Luping's personal guards, Ren Ning had no choice but to explain his whereabouts in detail.
At the end, he said with a sad face: "General, Zhui Feng has been exhausted since he hasn't been able to go out with everyone these days. I have to take him out for a walk first, and I'll be back soon."
Guan Luping was stunned and couldn't help but look at the dark horse next to Ren Ning.
Zhui Feng has received strict training, and he works hard to control himself when he knows that his master is in trouble.
Just because of its nature, it couldn't help but pull its neck hard, and its front hooves unconsciously dug into the soil.
"Go." Guan Luping is also a horse lover, so he patted Ren Ning on the shoulder: "Be careful, don't go too far."
When Song Ding City was first broken, the surrounding area was in chaos. Yun Chui's soldiers from the brigade were still searching everywhere for the whereabouts of Nanfeng's senior officials.
In addition, I don’t know how many Nanfeng soldiers took off their clothes and fled among the people. Anything could happen.
Ren Ning knew this well and nodded: "My subordinates will definitely pay attention to it."
Despite this, Guan Luping still sent a dozen personal guards to follow.
An hour later, after Zhui Feng had finished his run, Ren Ning rode it back to the western suburbs camp.
King Nanfeng committed suicide out of fear of crime.
As soon as he stepped into the forward camp, he heard such news.
