C157 The News of the Sky Wolf's Retreat Spread like Wildfire

General Xin's order increased the number of enemies Qingyun faced by several times, instantly increasing the pressure on him. Just when Qing Yun was already in a hopeless situation, countless arrows shot out from behind him and killed the enemies surrounding him. In an instant, Qing Yun's side became a vacuum state. There was no one alive anymore.

He turned around and saw that General Qu had already arrived in time with his troops. He also ordered the archers to help Qing Yun out. Qing Yun saw the opportunity and quickly turned his horse around to run towards General Qu.

"Your Royal Highness, are you alright?"

"I'm fine. Fortunately, the Marshal came in time. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have lost my life here today. "

"It's all my fault for erroneous deployment. I nearly caused your Highness's death. Your Highness, please punish me. "

"Marshal, there's no need to blame yourself. Am I not fine? Besides, the battlefield is ever-changing. I can't blame you for being so crafty. "

"Sigh! I never thought that I would fall into their trap after countless calculations, resulting in my army being defeated here. "

"Alright, Your Highness. Although we have suffered heavy losses this time, Celestial Wolf Kingdom has also suffered heavy losses. I think with our current military strength, we can still fight him for a period of time. "

"En. All soldiers, fight back with all your strength. We must avenge our lost friends and family. " General Qu gave the order and the entire army began to fight back.

Just as Commander Xin raised his hand and was about to give the order to attack, the messenger beside him suddenly stopped him and gave the order.

"Commander Xin, the chief commander has ordered you to retreat immediately without any mistakes. "

"What!? Retreat? What kind of joke was she playing? Retreat at this time. . . Didn't I just beat them up for nothing? Get out of my way, I'm going to kill them all today. " When Commander Xin heard this, he was so angry that he almost went crazy. He furiously ordered the messenger to get the hell out of his way.

"Commander Xin, the Yanshun and the Sand Lake Country have already withdrawn their troops. The Chief Commander said that if you don't withdraw your troops, you will be punished by military law. " The messenger was not moved at all and was only warning him.

"Are you threatening me?" After Commander Xin heard what he said, he gritted his teeth and looked at him.

"I dare not. I am just passing on the orders of the chief commander. " The messenger cupped his hands and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.

"You are ruthless. Men, call the gold and withdraw your troops. " After saying that, he rode back on his horse. After the Celestial Wolf Kingdom soldiers received the order to retreat, they quickly retreated like a receding tide. This made General Qu and the others confused again.

"What are they doing? Why did they retreat?" Qing Yun looked at the retreating army of Celestial Wolf Kingdom with a look of disbelief.

" Who knows what kind of tricks they have up their sleeves. Forget it, since they have already withdrawn, let's return to the city as well. Our losses this time are not small. It would be safer for us to retreat and defend Antian Prefecture. " After saying that, General Qu ordered his men to retreat immediately.

At this moment, a soldier riding a fast horse ran over from afar in a panic. When he arrived in front of General Qu, he jumped off the horse and knelt on one knee.

"Marshal, the grain in the city has been burned. The loss is huge. "

"What? The grain has been burned? What do you think?! Did the fire extinguish?" When General Qu heard this news, it was like a bolt out of the blue. This news was undoubtedly bad news to the current General Qu. Celestial Wolf Kingdom had already cut off their grain supply. Now that their grain was burnt, it was already too late to call for reinforcements from the Emperor. The enemy did not need to attack at all. As long as they trapped the Great Ming of Antian Prefecture, they would be defeated without a fight.

"General, I did not extinguish it when I left. "

"Return to the city immediately. " General Qu turned his horse around and ran towards Antian Prefecture. Qing Yun also followed closely behind. After walking for about half an hour, a black shadow flashed out from the grass beside him, and a shining big blade chopped directly at General Qu.

"Marshal, be careful. " Seeing that General Qu was in danger, Qing Yun hurriedly threw out the Coiling Dragon Halberd to stab at the person who came. He jumped up and followed closely behind the treasured halberd.

When the incoming man saw the halberd flying towards him, he hurriedly pulled back his saber and leaped backwards, easily dodging the attack and standing on the ground. When the halberd approached the incoming man, Qing Yun also caught up with the halberd and grabbed it. When the halberd missed its target, it fell to the ground.

Only now did General Qu and Qing Yun see the face of the man clearly. However, it shocked them greatly. This man was none other than the soldier who came back to inform them of his injuries.

"Who the hell are you?" Qing Yun said furiously.

"Mu Qingyun, so it's you. " The killing intent on this man's face intensified when he saw Qing Yun.

"That's right, it's me. Who exactly are you? Why did you assassinate the Marshal?"

"Hahaha, who am I? Mu Qingyun, oh Mu Qingyun, I didn't expect that after we parted in Shuntian Prefecture, your martial arts had improved a lot. You even got the position of Pingyun Prince, and you even got the Double Winged Coiling Dragon Halberd. You are really lucky. Should I congratulate you?" The person who came had a look of contempt on his face as he teased Qing Yun.

"Shuntian Prefecture? You knew His Royal Highness a long time ago? You are from the Nanzhou? " General Qu calmed down a lot when he saw the man say goodbye to the Shuntian Prefecture.

"Haha, General Qu, I heard that you are brave and good at fighting, and you always win with fewer strategies than others. How do you feel about today's battle?"

"All of this was arranged by you?" General Qu looked at this man in surprise and asked.

"Even if it is, this is just the beginning. " The man replied indifferently.

"You were the one who set the fire in the city?"

"Yeah, of course it was me. Otherwise, who else would have set the fire? It was not only me who set the fire. These idiots. . . They only knew that they were busy putting out the fire and didn't even know that the people around them had been killed. I say, General Qu. What's the use of having such a group of trash? Do you think you can defend Antian Prefecture with just them? "

" You impersonated our people just to burn my food? "

"Yeah, I didn't think it would be so troublesome. It's a pity that the city gates of Antian Prefecture are tightly shut and the city walls are heavily guarded. I can't go in easily. That's why I thought of such a method. You underestimate us too much. Will we leave you alive even if we kill? Yes, I didn't think it would be so troublesome. But unfortunately, the city gates of Antian Prefecture are tightly shut and the city walls are heavily guarded. I can't go in easily. That's why I thought of such a method. Hahaha. "

"You are so vicious. "

" Thank you for the compliment. I think if you knew about my entire plan this time, you would be even angrier, right? Actually, the attack of the three countries this time is only a part of my plan to burn the grain. It's to bring you and your soldiers out of the city. I can attack you and make it convenient for me to do things. And there won't be too many people to put out the fire, so your losses will continue to increase. This is killing two birds with one stone, hahaha! "

"What!! It was just a segment! Do you know how many people have died in today's battle? You're too cruel. " General Qu gritted his teeth and said.

"Ai! General Qu, you are not the first person to lead an army. There are no people who are not dead on the battlefield. Sometimes, those who have achieved great things should not care about small details. When it is necessary to win, they must also use extraordinary means. "
