"Young General, quickly leave. This lowly general will stop him for a while."

Tao Zheng turned around and was about to stop Fu Mengxiong. Helian Manqiu grabbed his arm, "Are you going to stop him or are you going to throw your life away? I have my ways to prevent him from catching up to us. Let's go."

Lowering his head to look at the slender jade hand holding onto his arm, Tao Zheng was stunned for a moment. His eyes suddenly lit up, his eyes concealing endless love as he lifted his eyes to look at Helian Manqiu's side profile.

Helian Manqiu had already released her hand. "Accelerate. Use the fastest speed possible."

"Yes."

Someone gave the order, and the several thousand light cavalry soldiers retreated at the same time. Finally, they shot out a round of crossbow bolts, and let out firecrackers.

Under the orders of Fu Mengxiong, the Iron Buddha had also retreated from the battlefield. They had been attacked by the army and their mounted war horses had been pacified.

Fu Mengxiong led a cavalry unit and quickly caught up from behind, wanting to keep Helian Manqiu.

Between the two sides, Fu Mengtian kept brandishing his sabre, and the soldiers of the General's Prefecture were chopped down.

Helian Manqiu gave the order that no one was to confront Fu Mengzhong. They were to retreat as fast as they could and use concealed weapons and crossbow bolts to stop the pursuit of Fu Mengzheng and his men.

No one was a match for him. When they fought, all the soldiers of the military state fell to the ground dead when they met him.

The infantrymen jumped onto the backs of the light cavalry and followed them out. Some of the men outside watched the horses and gave the horses in their hands to the infantrymen. The infantrymen quickly mounted up, turned into cavalry, and galloped north, dodging all the way through the sky.

He commanded several people to advance from different directions in order to avoid being chased and killed by Fu Mengzheng. Fortunately, he only stared at Helian Manqiu and did not pay any attention to others.

She purposely slowed down her pace so as to lure Fu Mengxiong to chase after her. She wanted to give the other soldiers a chance to leisurely retreat. Not far away, he allowed Fu Mengxiong to follow behind him, retreating towards the north.

Fu Mengtian's underlings not only had the Iron Buddha Pagoda, they were also leading a light cavalry unit. Although they were not many, they were the most elite light cavalry unit under the king's throne, and their combat power was equally astonishing.

Helian Manqiu had been leading the light cavalry of Fu Mengxiong all the way back, scheming on how to trick Meng Xiong into following her. Otherwise, how could she go to Mokang City when the number one warrior of the low and fresh clan followed behind her like a ghost?

After all, he couldn't possibly bring this great general all the way to Mo Gan City, right?

They met the other armies of the King of Freshmen midway. Wasn't she tired of living?

Looking at the road on horseback, she noticed that the sky had turned white and the surrounding scenery gradually appeared in front of her eyes. She recalled the map of this generation from the horseback but realized that she knew very little about the nearby road.

She had already delved too deep into the Great Western Continent, so she was not very familiar with the topography here.

"Tao Zheng, invite our General Na Ke Yu over."

"Yes, Young General."

When Tao Zang ordered his men to bring that person over, Helian Manqiu looked at that man, who was tied up like a dumpling and had a dazed look in his eyes. She could not help but laugh.

"Then, what are the unique features of the terrain around here?" Are there any mountain valleys, dense forest, or ravines? "

"Wilderness. Most of this area is boundless wilderness. There are very few places within a hundred miles that can hide from ambushes."

He used a respectful and incredulous gaze to look at Helian Manqiu. In response to Helian Manqiu's slightly cold gaze, he could not help but slightly lower his head, not daring to meet the eyes of this young general.

"Oh, is there no place for an ambush? Not even a ravine or a dense forest? "

"Young General, there is no need to deceive the Young General. Along the way north, there are only low hills and sparse trees within a hundred miles. The dense forest couldn't be said to be lacking, but the vast forest didn't. "There doesn't seem to be any deep gorges."

"What about the other direction?"

"The direction of the south is in the direction of the great general Fu Meng Tian. There is a small river fifty miles away in the west. It is not enough to cross the river and stop the great general Fu Meng Xiong Tian's pursuit." There are no tall mountains within two hundred miles to the east. They are all rugged roads and thorny grasslands. "

"Rivers? What kind of rivers?"

"It is only a small river, not more than ten Zhang wide and not much deeper than the belly of a horse. "The young general can send people to scout the nearby terrain, and if they find anything, it would be a lie. If they do, the young general can just cut off that person's head."

Helian Manqiu did not say anything. She gave a faint smile as she looked at Kuafu and said, "Men, release that general. If he wants to leave, then there is no need to run. This general will not stop you from leaving." "For the sake of your fifth prince's deep gratitude towards this general, I shall let you leave safely."

Hearing these words, Yu's lips twitched, and she said in a dejected tone: "That would allow me, under the orders of Your Highness, to come here and guide the young general. Now that the young general has defeated the Iron Buddha, how could I be the one who went back on my word, I will definitely guide the young general's path with my heart."

"This is for the best. Don't have any thoughts that you shouldn't have if you follow me. Don't think of playing any tricks by yourself. You are also a smart person, so naturally, you won't treat you unfairly by bringing me to Mo Gan City."

"Yes. That's something you can do as you wish. The young general uses troops like gods, and his thoughts are meticulous. In front of the young general, what tricks can he possibly play?"

This time, he personally witnessed the defeat of the Iron Buddha, and from the bottom of his heart, he admired Helian Manqiu.

"Besides, that would mean saying something that you shouldn't have. If the young general defeats the Iron Pagoda, my prince can return and report back, so he won't be heavily punished."

That could be said for a moment before sighing and saying dejectedly.

Someone had untied the rope, but there were still two soldiers who kept close to the man's side, watching over him.

Grow!

However, he didn't know what Helian Manqiu's order was that they were supposed to head towards the north. Could it be that these people had taken a detour to the west because they wanted to borrow the small river to stop the pursuit of Fu Mengxiong?

He did not think that such a small river could stop the footsteps of Fu Mengtian. Behind him was a group of light cavalry and tens of thousands of Iron Pagodas.

"Young General, this humble general has discovered something strange. It seems like there are less than ten thousand Iron Pagoda's worth of people."

Helian Manqiu, upon hearing Tao Zheng's words, turned around and looked behind her. She could not tell that there were many people in the Iron Buddha Pagoda which had been densely packed in a place far away. Fu Mengxiong led a group of light cavalry soldiers and chased after them relentlessly.

"Oh, how many do you think they have?"

"It seems that even with the addition of the light cavalry, there are less than ten thousand people, about seven or eight thousand."

He had not paid much attention to this during the battle, and now that he thought about it, he realized that Fu Mengxiong had brought ten thousand Iron Pagodas to kill them. The number of trees did not seem right.

These words reminded Helian Manqiu that she had overlooked something. And what she had ignored might very well bring about a great crisis for them.

"Immediately send out scouts to investigate the vicinity for several tens of kilometers or even hundreds of kilometers. If they discover the situation, report it immediately without error!"

"Yes, this general obeys."

"Inform Uncle Yi, send out scouts to investigate carefully. Don't be careless. I suspect that there is another ambush from Fu Mengtian, but I don't know where it is located." Order the scouts to investigate all the forest ravines, and to report back to the place where the enemies can be hidden. "

"Yes."

The personal guards continuously gave out orders, and the eagles and the fast horses simultaneously sent out orders to Helian Manqiu. Helian Manqiu's latest invention, the fireworks, rose in the air as a warning to carry her orders.

The different colors of the smoke represented a different meaning, and the two colors of the smoke and flame rising into the sky represented a more complicated meaning. The secret of these orders was understood only by the officers and soldiers of the Military Region. Helian Manqiu, without any scruples, used this method to issue orders, which meant that she was bullying those who were inferior to her.

"General, they seem to be up to something. Could there be an ambush ahead?"

Fu Mengtian shook his head, "This general has already arranged everything along the way. It's impossible for them to set up an ambush here. His Highness said that they only have less than five thousand people, and the people who were attacking the Iron Buddha earlier also don't seem to be more than four thousand.

"Great General, what kind of trick did Helian Qingyu use to defeat our Iron Pagoda? Tie Fu Tu has never been defeated before! "

"Helian Qingyu is truly amazing. He uses weapons like a god, the rumors are not empty. No wonder our King made us capture him alive and bring him back."

Fu Mengtian was galloping along on the horse's back. He stared at the slim figure on the red steed in the distance and couldn't help but ponder. Even if it was against the Iron Buddha, it had never lost. It was merely a tie.

But now, this young general had won more than just a few, and with less than four thousand light cavalry, not only had he severely injured his Iron Pagoda, he had also caused severe damage to it, causing countless deaths. Even more so, this young general had forced Iron Pagoda to retreat, and the light cavalry that could not even lead four thousand people, had almost no losses as they rushed out of his encirclement.

It was a pity that he had already made other arrangements. Fortunately, he had already made other arrangements.

Helian Manqiu glanced back at Fu Mengtian from afar. This general must have some sort of plan, right?

Unfortunately, she could even clearly see the appearance of this First Warrior. She did not dare to let Fu Mengxiong get too close, this Great General was not Duan Zhanchen, he could probably split her into two with one slash, and she would not even have the chance to fight back.
