Chapter 667: Chapter 649: Battle_1
Su Pan’er and the others were on horseback, quickly reaching the front of the crowd and leading the magnificent host of refugees towards the mountains.
Most of them, with their families in tow, had panic-stricken expressions on their faces.
The family member of a general at Su Pan’er’s side hesitated and finally, unable to bear her unease, asked, "Mrs. Qin, what do you think the outcome of this great war will be?"
Su Pan’er turned to look at her, a teasing smile in her eyes, "With General Qin and his soldiers present, what is there to worry about?"
"Then, then... then why are we still fleeing to the mountains for shelter?" The family member of the general asked, baffled.
"The ravages of war are merciless and armies slaughter each other relentlessly. It’s inevitable that innocent lives will be lost. The reason for everyone fleeing to the mountains is to minimize the number of innocent souls involved," Su Pan’er said casually, "If death doesn’t scare you, it’s not too late to go back."
"No, no, no, you got it wrong. I am just a little worried," the family member of the general hurriedly explained. "I was just over-worrying and failed to appreciate Lord Qin’s deep concern for us. I truly feel remorseful, please forgive me, Mrs. Qin!"
Su Pan’er smiled lightly, "As long as you understand."
The general’s family member nodded repeatedly, "I was indeed worried and that’s why I took the liberty to ask Mrs. Qin. I hope you wouldn’t take it to heart."
"With the war at hand, some worry is unavoidable. How could I blame you?"
Su Pan’er smiled, she raised her voice to say, "Rest assured, with my husband and soldiers present, Hezhong Prefecture will remain impregnable. Everyone should take refuge in the mountains for the time being and soon my husband will send people to get everyone back to the city."
The family members of the nearby soldiers who overheard their conversation, their tense countenances relaxed considerably.
Upon seeing this, Uncle Xiao gave Su Pan’er a thumbs up.
Su Pan’er gave a small smile, but her thoughts drifted to Qin Yi at Hezhong Prefecture, she secretly prayed for victory to come swiftly in this battle.
Once Qin Yi received the news that Su Pan’er had already led everyone into the mountains, he heaved a sigh of relief and immediately started arranging his troops in preparation for the decisive battle against the huge army led by Jun Ruochen.
Six hours later, a scout reported that Jun Ruochen’s army of 50,000 was less than ten miles away from the county city.
Qin Yi immediately took his generals to check the enemy’s situation.
Before he even climbed the city tower, he could hear the brisk sound of galloping horses in the distance, and the ground trembled faintly.
As he got up to the city gate tower, he looked up. The sight before him was a swirling storm of dust that seemed to block out the sky.
Jun Ruochen’s team approached the city like a giant winding dragon.
Qin Yi, with a solemn face, ordered, "All generals, take your respective positions according to the original plan and prepare for battle!"
"Aye!"
The generals responded in unison and immediately followed the orders.
After a while, Jun Ruochen, surrounded by his generals, arrived at the foot of the city.
Looking up to see Qin Yi standing on the city gate tower watching him, Jun Ruochen immediately shouted, "Qin Yi, surrender quickly! You and I were once good friends. Why must we resort to weapons? Rather, let’s turn our weapons into gifts and work together to support His Majesty. Before coming here, His Majesty already personally promised me that as long as you surrender willingly, all past grievances will be forgotten, and your former rank will be restored. You can be the carefree champion!"
"Where interests differ, there can be no common ground."
Qin Yi sneered, "The late emperor left an imperial edict behind for Fei’er to inherit Datong. Zhao Zitong, however, took advantage of this situation to plot a coup. Jun Ruochen, it’s a pity that you learned the rites of the sages yet couldn’t distinguish between right and wrong. It’s disappointing! Given our past friendship, if you abandon your wrong ways and join the right path, I assure you I can protect you and even help you retain your former glory!"
"Hahahahaha!"
Jun Ruochen laughed heartily, "Qin Yi, I didn’t expect you to be so stubborn! The general trend is set, why do you insist on resisting to the death? What benefits does it bring you? They say that a wise man gives in when circumstances dictate. Even if you don’t consider yourself, shouldn’t you consider Su Pan’er and your daughter, or think about your subordinates? Why let your foolish loyalty risk your lives? Moreover, how innocent are the common people? Why involve them in this, and make them endure the pain of parting from their loved ones?"
"Well, it’s a hypocritical Jun Ruochen!"
Qin Yi looked at him coldly, "I didn’t expect that after such a long time, you’ve changed so much for power that you can’t distinguish between right and wrong. Don’t you know who made the commoners suffer? Since you insist on being headstrong, you and I will break off our friendship today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he drew the waist sword at his side and swooped his robe corner.
Swoosh.
A corner of his white robe was cut off.
Jun Ruochen shook his head and sighed longly, "You are indeed a stupid man who doesn’t appreciate kindness!"
"Cut the crap and fight!"
Qin Yi raised his sword and yelled.
"Battle!"
The soldiers in the city raised their weapons in response.
The archers already positioned on the city walls drew their bows.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
An innumerable shower of arrows, gleaming ominously, shot out towards the army outside the city.
At the same time, there was suddenly a wave of arrows shot from the woods on both sides of the city.
Arrows from the city wall and the woods covered the sky as they fell on Jun Ruochen’s army.
The army of Jun Ruochen hurriedly lifted their shields to block.
"Attack!"
With a loud shout, Qin Yi gallantly leaped from the city tower, heading straight towards the front.
Simultaneously, the city gate opened and the morale-boosted soldiers surged out like a tidal wave, following Qin Yi into battle.
The troops ambushed in the woods on both sides also charged at Jun Ruochen’s army from two flanks, their killing intent surging.# TOO MANY ’ALSO’S FROM BEFORE AND AFTER
Jun Ruochen’s pupils contracted. He originally thought Qin Yi didn’t have enough soldiers and would defend to the end. He had never dreamed Qin Yi would be so unconventional, and despite the imbalance in military strength, he directly entered a fight to the death as soon as they met!
After his team was attacked, it immediately fell into chaos.
Qin Yi led from the front, moving swiftly, and was at the forefront of the team in the blink of an eye. Every time his sword swung, an enemy soldier fell dead.
A Bama pig, not knowing when it appeared behind him, occasionally sprayed a thick fog towards the enemies in front of him.
In a flash, Jun Ruochen’s men who touched the mist started hacking each other as if they had gone mad, some of them even being generals.
This sudden change further plunged the team into chaos.
Jun Ruochen quickly shouted out orders to try to stabilize their line, but the deafening noise of battle made his commands ineffective.
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Qin Yi’s mouth. His figure moved and he almost broke through to where Jun Ruochen stood. He attacked and stabbed Jun Ruochen’s mount with his sword.
The horse let out a mournful cry, its body rearing up.
Caught off guard, Jun Ruochen was thrown from his horse.
His men fell over each other rushing to form a human barrier in front of him, covering his retreat.
Qin Yi led his soldiers in hot pursuit.
