"Why not? If they didn't get out now, everyone would die in this tunnel!”Hearing Huo Du's words, Yang Xiong immediately refuted.
At this moment, Yang Xiong was not in the mood to be respectful to Huo Du.
" Yes, Your Highness, I think Yang Xiong is right this time," Arada chimed in.
Huo Du shook his head." There's only a dead end if we go out of the tunnel now. If we retreat the way we came, we might have a chance of escaping!" Whether you want to rush out to die or retreat to escape, you decide!”
Hearing Huo Du's words, Arada's eyes lit up and he said excitedly,""How could I have forgotten about this? Fortunately, Your Highness reminded us in time. Let's retreat and return to the grassland directly!”
" General Arada is right," Huo Du said with a smile after Arada finished speaking.
"I'll go and order my brothers to retreat now!”Hearing this, Arada turned to Huo Du and Yang Xiong and ordered the Wala soldiers to retreat.
These Wala soldiers couldn't take the attacks of the Thunderbolt Fireball anymore.
Hearing Arada's order to retreat, everyone naturally had no objections.
Under Arada's lead, the Wala soldiers immediately turned around and headed toward the other exit of the tunnel.
However, hundreds of unlucky corpses were left in the tunnel.
Arada, Yang Xiong, and the others, who were focused on retreating, did not notice that when they were halfway through retreating, Huo Du's figure disappeared.
When Arada led the remaining 2,000 Wala soldiers to retreat from the other side of the tunnel, they saw a group of cavalrymen in fiery red armor surrounding the tunnel entrance.
This army was undoubtedly the Golden Fire Cavalry led by Meng Tian.
Zhuan Po brought Zhu Qizhen's token to Meng Tian's army and conveyed Zhu Qizhen's orders.
Following that, Meng Tian led the army to the other end of the tunnel exit in the north of the city under the guidance of Zhan Zhuan Po.
As for the Soul Reversal, it was based on the mark left behind by the Wangliang to know this location.
"This general has been waiting for you for a long time!”Looking at the Wala soldiers fleeing from the tunnel, Meng Tian spoke indifferently.
Arada, Yang Xiong, and the 2,000 Wala soldiers under their command saw this scene and their expressions changed drastically. They couldn't help but feel despair.
"All troops, attack! Leave no one alive!"
Meng Tian pointed her spear in the direction of the Wala soldiers and spoke coldly.
"Yes, sir!"
When the Golden Fire Cavalry under Meng Tian's command heard Meng Tian's order, they responded respectfully. Then, they held their spears and charged at the Wala soldiers.
"Brothers, let's fight it out with them!"
Arada gritted his teeth and shouted angrily.
As soon as he finished speaking, Arada and the Wala soldiers under his command instantly started fighting the Golden Fire Cavalry crazily!
……
On the other side, at the north gate of Xuan Manor, the commotion in the tunnel gradually weakened.
Chen Ying immediately ordered them to stop using the Thunderbolt Fireball. He then sent out a team of soldiers to take protective measures and enter the tunnel.
Their mission was to clean up the tunnels and eliminate any Wala soldiers that might be alive.
An hour later, the soldiers who had entered the tunnel to investigate all returned to the north gate of Xuan Manor.
"Are there any Wala soldiers alive in the tunnel?”When those soldiers came out, Zhu Qizhen looked at everyone and said indifferently,
"Your Majesty, there are no longer any living people in the tunnel. Moreover, we went all the way to the other end of the tunnel and saw General Meng Tian leading the army to wipe out the Wala people who had escaped!”
Hearing Zhu Qizhen's question, the leading minor school officer hurriedly replied respectfully.
Swoosh!
Yang Hong's face turned ashen when he heard the answer.
He had never thought that Zhu Qizhen would have such a clear understanding of the situation in the tunnel. He had even sent out an army in advance. He had even set up an army to surround the tunnel exit outside Xuanfu City!
The other ministers were also shocked when they heard this.
"The Emperor has already sent General Meng Tian to guard the other end of the tunnel.”
Marquis Taining Chen Ying walked to Zhu Qizhen's side and bowed towards him with cupped hands as he spoke respectfully.
"Your Majesty's strategy is far-sighted, we admire you!”
As soon as Chen Ying finished speaking, the other officials present hurriedly bowed to Zhu Qizhen and greeted him respectfully.
"Alright, everyone, there's no need to flatter me. What Zhen needs is for you to do your best to do more practical things for Great Ming!”Zhu Qizhen looked at everyone's appearance and waved his hand.
"We will remember Your Majesty's teachings!"
Hearing Zhu Qizhen's words, everyone once again greeted him respectfully.
Zhu Qizhen shook his head slightly and did not continue this topic.
"Report! General Meng Tian was outside the city gates, requesting an audience!”
At this moment, a messenger quickly walked over and knelt on one knee three meters in front of Zhu Qizhen. He spoke respectfully.
" Pass down my order. Open the city gates and let General Meng Tian in," Zhu Qizhen immediately ordered.
"Yes, sir!"
The messenger replied, then turned around to pass on the order.
Not long after, Meng Tian brought a few personal guards and came in from the north gate of the Xuan Manor, arriving in front of Zhu Qizhen.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Seeing Zhu Qizhen, Meng Tian immediately knelt on one knee and bowed respectfully.
"Rise!"
Zhu Qizhen looked at Meng Tian and nodded in satisfaction.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Meng Tian thanked Zhu Qizhen and stood up.
After getting up, Meng Tian's eyes flickered slightly. She then cupped her fists at Zhu Qizhen and said,""Your Majesty, when I was destroying the Wala soldiers, I received news that a Dayuan envoy was hiding among them. However, when I ordered people to clean up the battlefield, I didn't find the corpse of the Dayuan Envoy!”
Hearing Meng Tian's words, Zhu Qizhen's eyes flashed. He turned his head abruptly and looked at the position of the soldiers who had just come out of the tunnel.
