The empress took action to kill the entourage, and Long Chen immediately broke into the tent at a very fast speed. Guitai was slightly startled, while Feng Erniang was completely shocked.
Guitai thought that the empress was not here to defend Xianhe City, and Feng Erniang thought the same, so he didn't expect Long Chen to make a sneak attack.
Something unexpected happened. Gui Tai shot back a ghost energy and retreated sharply. Feng Erniang instinctively blocked the front. Long Chen pierced Feng Erniang with his sword. The empress killed her entourage and followed immediately. Gui Tai had already exited the tent.
.
Long Chen split the tent open with a sword and chased after the shadow of the ghost fetus. The empress was also chasing after him.
Everything happened so quickly that the surrounding soldiers did not react.
The ghost fetus fled in front, while Long Chen and the Empress chased him from behind. After chasing for some distance, the Empress stopped and lit the tent on fire, and then pursued him again.
Guitai was furious, he knew he had been tricked, the empress did not defend Xianhe City at all, both of them were inside the city.
Apart from Gui Fei, there were only two masters here, Feng Erniang and his entourage. Both of them were killed, leaving Gui Fei alone and had to flee.
The three of them were all very fast, and they rushed out of the camp in a few seconds. They fled eastward like ghosts, and Long Chen shouted: "The ghosts are like bereaved dogs!"
Gui Fei was angry, but he didn't dare to stop.
After chasing for more than twenty miles in one breath, Long Chen finally stopped.
"Aren't you going to chase me anymore?"
When the empress saw Long Chen stopping, she also stopped immediately.
"Can't catch up."
Long Chen was a little helpless. The three of them had similar cultivation levels. They couldn't defeat the ghost fetus, so they had no problem escaping.
The empress said regretfully: "It's a pity that he ran away."
Long Chen looked back to the west, and saw that the fire was already burning, and the Long family troops in the city came out to fight.
"Let's go back."
Long Chen turned back to the west, and the defeated troops of Nanliang dispersed to the east. Long Chen fought all the way back.
When Han Ziping and others saw the enemy camp on fire, they immediately led their troops to fight out.
After the day's fighting, the Nanliang soldiers had no intention of resisting and were quickly killed throughout the barracks.
In the darkness, the soldiers were either killed or surrendered. If they had the strength, they would run away in the darkness. The scene was very chaotic.
When daybreak came, all the battalions returned to the city. The barracks in Nanliang had been destroyed.
Long Chen stood on the city tower and watched countless prisoners being gathered together.
"Your Majesty, there are too many prisoners, how should we deal with them?"
Luo Qiwei was in a bit of trouble. Her Beida camp captured hundreds of thousands of prisoners last night, more than their own troops.
Several barracks in Han Ziping also encountered the same problem, and too many prisoners were captured.
The empress said: "According to the previous rules, we will temporarily imprison them until Xianhe City is destroyed and send them all to the rear to farm."
Guitei's army has been defeated, and now it's time to deal with Xu Feng's black armored army.
Long Chen asked Han Ziping to quickly imprison the prisoners, and the Long family army took the time to rest.
The mountains outside the city were bulldozed, and all the prisoners were imprisoned outside the city.
Long Chen returned to the room to rest. There was a human head on the table, which belonged to Yan Xi.
Underneath was a piece of paper that read: Yan Xi's head is presented.
The signature is Ji Zhang.
Long Chen secretly thought: Ji Zhang and the others have gone to Beiling City? Yan Xi's head has arrived, and Di Luoxi and the others are arriving soon.
After changing his clothes, Long Chen took a short rest and then heard the news that Beiling City soldiers and horses were coming back.
Outside the east gate, Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi arrived with soldiers and horses. The empress was making out with her two daughters.
Wu Jian rushed over and said: "I wanted to rush over to help, but I didn't expect that the young general had already broken the ghost."
Long Chen said: "The battle was easier than expected. The ghost fetus abandoned the army and ran away."
Wu Jian said with some pity: "Wu Hongying was killed by the formation, and Yan Xi ran away."
Long Chen shook his head and said: "No, Yan Xi did not run away, Ji Zhang killed him and his head is still in the house."
Wu Jian said in surprise: "Ji Zhang? He is in Beiling City? Why didn't I find it?"
Long Chen said: "This guy disappeared for a while, and he's back again."
Wu Jian frowned and said, "Ji Zhang appears and disappears. He has his own agenda."
Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "I know."
Di Luoxi was chattering around the empress, and so was Emperor Lingyi. Mother and daughter looked very happy.
Wu Jian took a look and laughed in a low voice: "Major General, now the Holy One will not specifically trouble you."
Long Chen whispered: "You are not serious, don't talk nonsense."
Long Chen returned to the house, and Wu Jian asked the soldiers to rest.
Di Luoxi surrounded the empress and said, "Mother, my son and I are late. We can catch up if we come earlier."
Emperor Lingyi said: "It's a pity that we only killed Wu Hongying when we were in Beiling City, and Yan Xini ran away. It was dark at night and we couldn't catch up with him."
The empress smiled and said: "It would be good to defeat Nanliang. Killing the general before the battle is already very good."
"Both of you have contributed to this battle."
Li Xiannan was by the side and waited for the princess to finish speaking before he came forward to pay her respects.
"Xiannan has been guarding the southern border for many years. This time he broke through Beiling City and then defeated the Nanliang General. You have made outstanding achievements. I will confer you the rank of second-grade Zhennan General."
Li Xiannan has fought very hard these years, and has accumulated enough merit to be canonized.
Li Xiannan was overjoyed and worshiped: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for this gift."
The empress looked back and said, "Okay, you two go and have a rest."
Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi entered the city smiling and went straight to the courtyard where Long Chen was.
After entering the door, Long Chen was sitting inside, pouring two cups of tea.
"Two princesses have worked hard. Let's sit down and have a cup of tea."
Long Chen greeted him with a smile. Di Luoxi glanced at Di Lingyi and said, "Third sister, please go out first. I will replace you later."
Emperor Lingyi refused and retorted: "Why should you go first? I'll come first, you go out, and I'll replace you later."
The two sisters couldn't argue, and Long Chen felt like he was a bitch.
"You two, why don't you stop arguing?"
Di Luoxi looked at Di Lingyi and said, "No, first come, first served."
Emperor Lingyi took off his armor, threw the shirt on the ground, lay down on the bed, and said, "I've already laid down, you can do whatever you want."
Di Luoxi said angrily: "Third sister, you are so shameless!"
Emperor Lingyi smiled and said, "So what, you can take it off if you can."
The two sisters started arguing as soon as they arrived, and Long Chen secretly thought something was wrong.
When they were away, the empress was looking for trouble every day, and now that they are here, there is even more trouble.
outside the door.
Gongsun Linglong happened to be passing by, and she wanted to come over and talk to the two princesses.
Hearing the quarrel in the room, Gongsun Linglong immediately slipped out of the door.
Yingfeng saw Gongsun Linglong laughing as he walked and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
Gongsun Linglong said in a low voice: "The two princesses are fighting and jealous in the room. No one will let the other go. I think it will be difficult for the eunuch to die."
Yingfeng smiled and said, "Let's go and listen to the excitement."
Gongsun Linglong shook his head and said: "Forget it, be careful of being implicated."
...
Xianhe City.
Xu Feng has been in the city for two days. Hou Qi has been making inquiries, but there is no sign of Long Chen.
Xu Feng felt that the situation was not good and immediately sent someone to inquire about Linhu City.
Finally, the spies brought back news about Linhu City.
"Long Chen and the Empress attacked the Holy Son at night. The military camp was in chaos. The Eastern Zhou army took the opportunity to leave the city. Our army was severely defeated, with numerous casualties. The Holy Son has returned to Qingren County."
