C713 Chapter 713

Barbarian Clan, retreat!1

The Trooper Lord looked proudly at the soldiers beside him, then looked at Greed, who was floating in the sky, as if he was showing off. The thing that made the Trooper Lord the most proud of his troops wasn't the combat strength of the Barbarian Army. It was the extreme loyalty of the Barbarian Army to the country, as well as their fearless spirit when killing enemies.

However, after the Trooper Lord finished his words, he turned around and looked behind him. What he saw shocked him. Regarding the words that Tan Lang had just said, although the dozen or so Trooper Lord present maintained a dubious attitude, however, they knew that they should think of a way to return to Barbarian Country before that. However, that was because they knew that even if the Great General really surrendered to the Great Wei as Tan Lang had said... Even if they did surrender to the Great Wei, not to mention whether they could win the trust of the Great Wei Imperial Court and the army, after coming to the Great Wei, it was impossible for him to retain his position in the Barbarian Country.

However, to these soldiers, their considerations were obviously different from those of the Trooper Lord. From the time the spectral cultivators attacked the capital, to when they were ready to attack, to when they attacked the Falling Blade Cliff in one breath, it had been half a month. During this half a month, the only thing that accompanied them was endless shouting and killing. And... An endless battle of attrition.

After so many battles, even iron men would feel tired. Not to mention these living people. Furthermore, before they attacked the Falling Blade Cliff, the army had already spread all kinds of rumors. Now that their spiritual leader, the Great General, had suddenly disappeared, Ator had ordered everyone to retreat without saying anything about the Great Trooper Lord. Moreover, these soldiers had also suffered a huge setback in the Guard of Lo Capital in front of Iron Ridge Pass. It was already considered very good that the Barbarian Army's soldiers did not lose their morale because of this. The scene that Tan Lang threw out now became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"Clang! Clang!"

The sound of weapons falling to the ground could be heard from all directions. Many soldiers threw their weapons to the ground. They raised their hands. As the saying goes, the power of an example is limitless. The role model in this sentence is not just a positive image, even if the negative example is in this sentence, it is also applicable.

After someone took the lead, more and more Barbarian Clan soldiers dropped their weapons. They raised their hands. Fourteen Trooper Lord's faces were ashen, and there were even people with bad tempers or who had accumulated prestige in the army. When they charged into the army, they gave two slaps to the soldiers who had raised their hands to surrender.

However, that was all they could do. As more and more people raised their hands to surrender, many soldiers who were originally wavering also joined their ranks. Although the Trooper Lord of Barbarian Clan could boast that the soldiers under its banner were not afraid of death, there was no one in this world who didn't want to live. Seeing their comrades who had fought side by side with them for a long time start to raise their hands and surrender, they no longer put up a stubborn resistance.

It was the fifth day of the first year of the new year. Since the night of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, the ghost cultivators launched an all-out attack on the capital. Because the leader of the spectral cultivators, Kuan Shu, had already colluded with the Barbarian Clan before the attack, and under the cooperation of the spectral cultivators and the Barbarian Clan internally and externally. The Barbarian Clan had pinpointed the lifeline of the Profound Gate Pass's garrison and destroyed the Profound Gate Pass. They slaughtered their way from the Profound Gate Pass all the way to the Falling Blade Cliff, which was the most important place for the army in the north of the Great Wei. This place had already been pointed out by the militarists since the founding of the empire. In the future, it would be the life-saving talisman of the Great Wei. Fortunately, it was not a disgrace. It helped the defending troops of the Profound Gate Pass block the crazy attacks of the Barbarian Army for a full five days.

In the end, the logistical support of Barbarian Clan was unable to keep up. Plus, Falling Blade Cliff was unable to attack for a long time. Also, after Yang Xuan captured the general of the Barbarian Clan, Saltus, with a scheme, the army of the Barbarian Clan finally lost their patience. They retreated towards the direction of the Profound Gate Pass.

However, what puzzled Barbarian Clan was that after the general Saltus was captured alive, Zhou Fengmiao, who had guarded Profound Gate Pass for many years and was hailed as the guardian god of the Great Wei. At this moment, there was no trace of him. After that, it was as if the army of the Great Wei had an expert secretly attacking them. A series of schemes had caused the army of Barbarian Clan to suffer terribly.

Outside the Iron Ridge Pass, the sudden appearance of the Guard of Lo Capital had caught the army of Barbarian Clan off guard. It also made the Barbarian Army who came from the northern grasslands choose to surrender in the end. However, behind this victory, few people knew. This was the legendary Yang Xuan in the eyes of the later generations. Ever since he showed off his strength in Profound Gate Pass, he had once again shown his strength.

After the victory was announced, the Guard of Lo Capital and the defending troops of the Profound Gate Pass joined forces. They were responsible for sending the prisoners of the Barbarian Army back to the Barbarian Country. However, when the army and civilians in the north of Great Wei were celebrating the victory of the war, the biggest contributor to this war was Yang Xuan. At this moment, he had just woken up from his coma.

"Where am I? Eh, Black Panther?"

Slowly opening his eyes, Yang Xuan raised his head and looked at the top of his head. It was a pure white ceiling. Yang Xuan turned his head to look at his side and found the Black Panther lying quietly beside his head. It was sleeping soundly. The Black Panther opened its eyes when it sensed Yang Xuan waking up. He said, "Country bumpkin, you finally woke up. I thought you were going to die!"

"You're the one who's going to die!"

Yang Xuan unhappily raised a hand and pressed it on the Black Panther's head to rub it. He said to the Black Panther unhappily. The Black Panther shook its head with all its strength and broke free from Yang Xuan's devil claw. It licked its claws with its tongue and combed the fur on its head.

"Where am I? Didn't I fight at the entrance of Iron Ridge Pass?"

Yang Xuan ignored the Black Panther that kept waving its little claws in protest and asked doubtfully. The Black Panther opened its mouth and was about to speak when the door of the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside. A black mass of people walked in from the outside.

Yang Xuan was startled and only calmed down after a moment. Only now did he see the people who just walked in. Ning Ziwei, who was guarding the Profound Gate Pass, and General Tan Lang. The leader of the Guard of Lo Capital, Chen Zhihu, and even those who had been injured outside the Profound Gate Pass. The general of the Tiger Army, Qi Yulong, was pushed to Dragon Tooth Mountain to recuperate.

The expressions on these people's faces were very nervous.

Being stared at by more than ten pairs of eyes, Yang Xuan suddenly felt a little awkward. He couldn't help but scratch his head and ask, "What's wrong? Is there a flower on my face?"

As Yang Xuan spoke, he suddenly realized something. His eyes were wide open, and his originally listless expression suddenly became excited. He looked at Ning Ziwei, who was the closest and most familiar to him, and asked, "Mr Ning, shouldn't you be in Falling Blade Cliff now? Why have you suddenly appeared here? Could it be that you have already forced the barbarians to retreat?"
