When Xia Jian slashed out with his sword, this Tata warrior was destined to die!
Xia Jian leaped off his horse with sword intent that filled the sky. He ran toward the fleeing Tata warrior and slashed at him.
The Tata warrior sensed danger and turned around to block with his scimitar.
The Shang Fang Sword was incomparably sharp, and with the addition of the Disorder Conquering Sword Technique, how could his ordinary scimitar block it?
The knife broke, the man died, and the Tata warrior fell from his horse.
? After Xia Jian killed the Tartar warrior, the Mongolian cavaliers suddenly fell into chaos and lost their ability to fight.
It turned out that the Tartar warrior that Xia Jian had killed was the general of this army, Mao Li Qiu, the younger brother of the Mao Li Child King!
With their commander killed, the so-called valiant Mongolian cavaliers instantly panicked. Their first thought was to escape.
Mao Li Qiu had been killed, and the Mongolian army was in chaos. The three thousand Ming soldiers who had followed Xia Jian out naturally fought even harder.
Three thousand against ten thousand. A moment ago, it was like an egg hitting a rock, but now it had become a paper wall that could be broken by the Ming army with a single stab.
The more the Ming army killed, the more excited they became. Naturally, the more the Mongolian army fought, the more afraid they became. They threw away their armor and fled, afraid that they would be caught up by the Ming army if they were too slow.
The horses of the Mongolian army were much stronger than the horses of the Ming Dynasty. As they chased and fled, the distance between the two sides quickly widened.
In the beginning, archers could still shoot with bows and arrows, but later on, only musketeers could shoot with guns.
The archers and musketeers did not ride horses because there were not many warhorses left in the city.
In the end, after the defeated Mongolian army had run far away, Xia Jian gave the order to stop the pursuit.
A great victory, an unprecedented victory!
Since the end of Ming Cheng Sect's era, the Ming army had basically been unable to defeat these foreign races. They had basically sent several times the number of troops each time, but in the end, they had been f * cked to tears.
Then, the Daizong and Yingzong eras ended. In the current Chenghua Emperor Xianzong era, the Ming border guards basically couldn't help but want to escape when they saw foreign troops.
This was a phenomenon that would only happen when one was afraid of being beaten.
Now, under Xia Jian's leadership, he had defeated 20,000 Ttar soldiers and killed 8,000 of them.
There were also some who had lost their combat ability and were captured. There were about 5,000 of them.
Thus, only six thousand Ttar soldiers managed to escape.
When they escaped, they would definitely return to Guyuan Town. That place had almost become a den of Tartar thieves. However, when they returned, they would find that Xiang Zhong had already brought the Ming army and was waiting for them with their long swords.
[Ding-dong. The host has completed the mission and received a system mission gift bag. Would you like to open it?]”
Xia Jian led the Ming army to defeat the enemy. After more than ten hours, the system's mission completion notification finally arrived.
Since the mission was completed, it meant that Xiang Zhong had successfully recaptured Guyuan City. Perhaps even the fleeing Tartars had been wiped out by the Ming army led by Xiang Zhong.
"Open the gift bag!"
Xia Jian was currently in his temporary room. He was the only one in the room.
[Ding-dong. The host has successfully opened the gift bag!]”
"Reward obtained: 1 Origin Returning Pill, 2 Heavenly Yuan Pills, 4 Heavenly Spirit Pills.”
"Reward obtained: one chance to draw the Super Lucky Wheel!”
"You have received a reward, a copy of the Demon-slaying Sword Art!”
This time, the grand prize was much more generous than before.
Not only did he have the chance to draw the Super Lucky Wheel, but he also had the Returning Essence Pill, Heavenly Essence Pill, Heavenly Spirit Pill, and so on!
However, what was this Demon-Slaying Sword Art? Could it be that there were really monsters in this world?
Forget it, he couldn't be bothered with this. He would just accept whatever the system gave him. Anyway, it was something given by the system, so it definitely wouldn't be too bad.
[Ding-dong. System Notification. The same pill will only have 50% of the effect of the first time. The third time will have 50% of the effect of the second time, and so on.]”
"I suggest that the host can give the pills to his loyal subordinates as a reward.”
Just as Xia Jian was about to swallow it, he did not expect the system to pop up this notification.
Giving it to his subordinates? Loyalty?
Xia Jian shook his head and still consumed the Origin Returning Pill.
The most important thing now was naturally to increase his own strength. As for his subordinates, he could just give them a Heavenly Spirit Pill.
Name: Xia Jian
"Level: LV2 (Eunuch).
Race: Chinese Han
[Skills: Easy to capture, superb cooking skills][Six Pulses Divine Sword],[Disorder Conquering Sword Art],[Omniscient Mirror] Demon Slaying Sword Art "
" Attributes: Agility 34, Strength 34; Speed: 27."
As expected, the effect of this Origin Returning Pill was much worse than the last time he took it!
Holding the other two bottles of Heavenly Yuan Pills, Xia Jian was considering whether to take them.
"The effect of the Origin Returning Pill is already so bad. Forget it, I'll keep this Heaven Returning Pill.”
Xia Jian thought about it and put down the small jade bottle in his hand. Now that he had added a little more attribute points, it had little effect on him.
After a while, Xia Jian had someone write a letter and report it to the imperial court in the capital.
Of course, Xia Jian would definitely only write about himself in the content this time. As for Xiang Zhong, Xia Jian only mentioned that he had led an army of 10,000 out in one sentence.
Xia Jian didn't say what he was going to do with ten thousand soldiers. He would let the officials of the imperial court guess.
In any case, Xia Jian said in the letter of divorce that he had led 3,000 Qingyang City border guards to defend the city and finally defeated the Tartar cavalry with fire.
Great victory. The Ming army had obtained such a great victory for the first time against the Mongolian cavaliers. Xia Jian naturally wanted to claim credit from the Imperial Court.
This was different from killing treacherous officials. Even if you were to kill treacherous officials of the Ming Dynasty, even if you were in the right, you could still be said to be deliberately inciting internal strife by those empty talkers. Then, they would say that you were defecting to the enemy and betraying your country. Anyway, the mouth was on them, so they could say whatever they wanted.
Xia Jian did not expect Xiang Zhong to write a letter at the same time. The news of the two of them arrived in the capital almost at the same time.
The only difference was that Xiang Zhong's letter clearly explained the sequence of events and exaggerated the number of enemy troops, unlike Xia Jian's report which was based on the actual number of enemy troops.
In ancient times, civil officials and generals had a tendency to exaggerate. For example, Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period liked to say that his army of more than 500,000 soldiers was an army of 800,000 soldiers.
Xiang Zhong was no exception. Twenty thousand enemies were actually said to be hundreds of thousands by him.
When the officials of the imperial court put the two reports together, they thought that Xiang Zhong had led more than ten thousand Ming soldiers and killed more than eighty-six thousand Tartar soldiers.
However, this was not the most shocking thing. The most shocking thing was that the Imperial Court actually believed it!
Because the imperial court didn't need to know how many enemies you killed. They only cared about victory.
Even if you lost 100,000 troops and killed 1,000 of the enemy's troops, it would be fine as long as you won.
Of course, this was just an analogy. In reality, it definitely wouldn't be like this.
In the battle of Qingyang City, the original three thousand soldiers were reduced to less than two thousand.
As for the Tartar captives, Xia Jian was annoyed and killed them all.
"Sir, the celebration banquet has begun!" His trusted aide stood respectfully at the side and reminded Xia Jian.
The eunuch was very lucky. He was kicked off the city tower by Xia Jian and hit the Tartar soldier. Not only was he fine, but he also smashed an enemy soldier to death.
Although he was kicked down by Xia Jian, the eunuch did not dare to complain. He only respected Xia Jian.
This was the advantage of being in a high position. Even if you ordered your subordinates around like dogs, they would still have to think of ways to kneel and lick your boots.
