Chapter 1450 You Called for Backup in a One-on-One Duel?
ld."The three of you are the top three scholars of this year's imperial examination. This palace has high hopes for you, so today I summoned you here to have a few things to make clear to you, and sec...Chapter 1450 You actually called someone to help during our agreed-upon one-on-one duel
Wu Ban Shan served as the commander of Yueya Pass for many years and was a man who commanded respect.
Moreover, who among those guarding the Moonlit Pass could be a meek and timid person
Seeing Ye Wang so dismissive of himself, Wu Ban Shan was also provoked into anger. He sneered coldly: "Good, this general will see how you take this general's head."
As soon as the words left his mouth, the two of them clashed like wild bulls.
Li Chen seeing this, a slightly bored expression appeared on his face.
It seems to him that it's all just a trivial farce.
Nodding slightly to Xu Wei, Li Chen said in a cool tone, "Spare his life."
On receiving the order, Xu Wei didn't hesitate for a moment. He immediately raised his hand and clenched it into a fist with a swift motion.
This is a code word between him and the monks protecting Li Chen in secret.
Receiving the signal, ten Shaolin monks appeared without warning. They remained silent, sprinting towards Ye Wang. Each carried a staff strapped to their backs, moving with swift strides, kicking up dust particles as they raced like cheetahs.
You said we'd have a one-on-one duel, but you brought backup!
This scene caught Li Songru's eye, and he immediately frowned, feeling that Li Chen was not playing by the rules.
And behind him, those horsemen stirred again.
It seems that as soon as a monk enters the fray, they immediately join in to help Ye Wang.
After all, they outnumbered the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry. They shouldn't lose at their camp gate.
Li Chen seemed to sense something, he looked at Li Songru and said faintly: "Control your soldiers well. Moving a weapon before the lord is treason punishable by death."
"You!"
Li Songru uttered the single character "you," but the words that followed were stuck in his throat. A surge of anger rose within him, threatening to make him lash out.
The current game situation, our side is winning.
Behind him were 150,000 Yan Yun cavalry. Even with just a small force like the Prince's before them, let alone facing him at Yueya Pass, Li Songru would have been confident in capturing the Prince.
But the difference between Li Songru and Ye Wang lies in this: Ye Wang doesn't consider the consequences when doing things, but Li Songru does.
He knew that if he really did it, even the King of Ning wouldn't be able to save him.
Perhaps the King Ning could escape unscathed, but he, as well as the entire high command of the Eighteen Riders of Yan Yun, would be slaughtered.
The emergence of this thought sent a shiver down Li Songru's spine. He looked at Li Chen with a complex expression, pondering a question in his mind: Was all of this intentionally orchestrated by the prince Was it a scheme to find a pretext for purging the ranks of Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry officers, not necessarily to seize control of the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry, but at least to significantly weaken King Ning's influence over them
At present, the Yan Yun Sixteen Riders are almost Ning Wang's private army, but that's just almost.
In name, the supreme commander of any army nationwide is only one person, the emperor of the Qin Empire.
Since the Emperor is now unable to rule, the Crown Prince naturally assumes the regency.
Ning Wang's control over the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry relied on the support of a large number of high-ranking generals like himself. But if this group of generals were to be massacred, the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry would no longer be the impenetrable force it was.
"Anybody!"
Gritting his teeth, the words came out almost like a hiss from Li Songru's clenched jaw, "Don't act rashly!"
"General Li, General Ye he···"
A cavalryman spoke urgently, but before he could finish his words, Li Songru interrupted him.
Gazing intently at Li Chen, Li Songru said in a glacial tone, "Didn't you understand my words No one is allowed to move without orders! Otherwise, don't blame this general for being ruthless!"hy man, leaving them too angry to speak.But that's not all.Su Jin's eyes turned cold, his expression even more icy as he spoke, "Now, no matter the industry or its profitability in the Great Qin, a un...
