With a light tap, Zhang Liyang's palm landed gently on a tree trunk. The tree trembled slightly before falling silent again. However, Zhang Liyang was quite pleased with this. He then turned and...Und..."Sir, we go to stop them!"

"Come, follow me and charge! Delay for the prince!"

"Attack the Pianshan camp! Charge!"

Boom boom boom~

The warhorses surged across the wasteland, a mere dozen strong yet their presence shook the very earth. They seemed to devour mountains and rivers!

Watching the soldiers charging forward, Zhang Liyang's eyes were bloodshot. These cavalrymen would undoubtedly be stepping into hell once they went. However, Zhang Liyang had no other choice but to wave his whip again, urging his horse to run faster!

Last night, Zhang Liyang led Mu Yinghua and those cavalrymen on the run all night long until dawn arrived. Only then did Zhang Liyang allow the troops to stop for a brief rest.

Looking at Mu Yinghua, whose face was slightly pale due to the all-night ride, Zhang Liyang felt a pang of sympathy. However, for his own safety, he still ordered a break of only one hour.

During times of great hardship, a single hour could only be used for a brief nap, giving both man and horse a moment to rest.

But after only about half an hour, Zhang Liyang, who was meditating to recover his strength, was awakened. A scout reported that figures were approaching them.

"Everyone, mount your horses immediately!"

"Your Highness, you and your men should leave first. I'll go scout ahead!"

Although Mu Yinghua still couldn't bear to part with him after last night, she nodded nonetheless. Ignoring her fatigue, she clambered onto her horse and said, "Be careful, I'll be waiting ahead."

"Rest assured, Your Highness."

Seeing Mu Yinghua leave under the protection of the remaining cavalry, Zhang Liyang led the remaining ten cavalrymen to a better hillside.

Under the dawn, sunlight bathed the surroundings. Moreover, this was a barren wasteland with almost no mountains or forests to obstruct the line of sight. Thus, Zhang Liyang saw at once several figures appearing on the horizon.

Only after seeing it clearly did Zhang Liyang's face turn serious.

Although there were only five figures, their speed was extremely fast. What made Zhang Liyang's heart sink even further was that the other party wasn't riding horses; they were chasing them on foot!

"Masters, there could be a tenth-level expert in the first ring or even a second-ring expert!"

Although the other person was still quite far away, Zhang Liyang, through their movements and the system's mission prompts, immediately realized that his side was not a match for them.

The cavalry of Panshi Camp were undoubtedly very strong, but their strength lay in collective warfare.

If Zhang Liyang had two or three hundred cavalrymen at his disposal at this time, he wouldn't even have to think twice. He would lead the cavalry straight at the enemy, crushing them completely, regardless of whether they were a tenth-rank warrior from the First Ring or a second-rank master, they would all die!

But standing there was impossible. Zhang Liyang only had ten cavalrymen on his side. If they charged, it would be like delivering a meal to the enemy - a one-way trip with no return!

"Let's go!"

Having made up his mind, Zhang Liyang turned his horse around and rode after Mu Yinghua and the others.

Although the following cavalrymen were puzzled, after yesterday night's battle, they had mostly developed a sense of trust in Zhang Liyang, so they didn't ask any questions and directly followed behind Zhang Liyang to retreat.

"Big brother, they ran!"

"Don't worry, they can't run far."

Zhang Liyang could see them directly across the unobstructed wasteland, and they could naturally see Zhang Liyang as well.

I thought Zhang Liyang and the others would come directly to stop us, but who knew they just ran away This ignited a wave of anger in our hearts after running all night. If it weren't for our leader holding us back, I bet we would have let it out.

But in their hearts, these people have already thought about how to torture them when they catch them later.

"Huh Zhang Liyang, those pursuers were resolved so quickly"

Seeing Zhang Liyang catching up, Mu Yinghua was a little surprised, after all, she had just left Zhang Liyang.

"No, we're the ones who are causing trouble this time"

What's wrong

"

"The opponent has brought in a master, a really high-level one!"

"

Hearing Zhang Liyang's words, Mu Yinghua fell silent. She knew that everything might have been because of her, but she couldn't do anything about it.

Now she represents the royal family of Great Qin, it's impossible to retreat, she can only bite the bullet and continue!

Boom!

The warhorse galloped across the wasteland, but the plume of white vapor growing thicker from its nostrils filled Zhang Liyang's eyes with worry.

Yesterday, I had been running all night long. Although I rested for half an hour, I have to continue running now. Even a warhorse would find it difficult to keep going.

"For how much longer can the warhorses hold out"

"Sir, I estimate that by noon we'll be unable to hold on!"

The cavalry's reply left Zhang Liyang silent, his heart racing with worry but finding no good solutions.

Until the warhorse's speed slowed, until those five figures reappeared behind the horse, that was when the scene at the beginning unfolded.

Those five figures were masters, and everyone knew in their hearts what would happen if they stepped forward to block them. Everyone understood!

But they still stood up without hesitation, forgetting their own life and death, steadfast in their loyalty, for the sake of Great Qin, for their faith, they offered their heads and shed their blood!

"Haha... finally caught by us!"

Behind them, seeing the dozen or so cavalry charging in, someone burst into laughter instantly. At the same time, they stomped their foot on the ground with a dull thud, then leaped up and swooped down towards the oncoming horsemen!

"Loose the arrow!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

Sharp arrows, ripped through the air under a powerful bow. The specially designed spinning arrowheads aimed to pierce their target directly!

Slap, slap~

The arrow struck the figure in mid-air with pinpoint accuracy, but instead of piercing its target as it should, it was like hitting the hide of an incredibly tough ox. The arrow only grazed a bit of skin before shattering completely.

Seeing the broken arrows falling from the sky, all the cavalry fell silent for a moment, then bent their bows and nocked arrows, aiming them at the other side.

A bunch of ants, daring to defy me, courting death!

With a roar, the figure crashed heavily into the cavalry, like an iron statue, crushing a rider and his horse directly into a bloody mess!

Here we go!

The battle knife whirled, landing on the opponent but emitting a faint clang of metal against metal. The opponent seized this opportunity and with a wide sweep of their hand, slapped hard at the side of their own warhorse.

Hiss, hiss~

Amidst the mournful neighs of the warhorse, the entire steed along with its mounted rider were sent flying by a colossal force. They crashed heavily to the ground afterward.

"Ah~"

Under the weight of the warhorse and the force of gravity, a cavalryman's leg was crushed directly. The immense pain caused him to cry out involuntarily.

No sooner had the sound left his lips than a boot appeared above the rider's head and came down upon him.

Let me know if you'd like any other text translated!

With a light sound, red and white liquid splashed! lack of response, Feng Zhen seemed more satisfied and nodded. "You are pretty good."As eunuchs, we should do more and speak less. That's how we please our master, don't you think"What the elders said...
