At this moment, Wu Yue shouted, “Retreat!”
Instantly, the soldiers of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom hurriedly retreated. Seeing that the Eastern Imperial Kingdom had retreated, how could the Nanxuan Kingdom allow them to retreat so easily? Immediately, the army charged over.
“Change the formation!”
Instantly, the formation changed. The front merged together, and the back separated, forming a swallow-tailed formation.
At this moment, Wang Siqi had already led his soldiers to charge over. Endless power erupted.
Kill!
Wu Yue saw that the soldiers of the Nanxuan Kingdom were already red-eyed from killing. He knew that the time had come.
“Retreat!”
With an order, Wu Yue led his soldiers to retreat into the pass. Seeing that Wu Yue was about to escape, Wang Siqi immediately led his soldiers to charge forward and directly charge into Changfeng Pass. At this moment, there was no one left in Changfeng Pass.
At this time, Wang Siqi stopped warily.
“General! What’s wrong?” The deputy general asked.
Wang Siqi said warily, “Isn’t there 100,000 soldiers in Changfeng Pass? Why are there only 50,000 soldiers coming out? Where’s the other 150,000?”
The deputy general quickly said, “Maybe they were scared out of their wits by my army and escaped!”
“Impossible!” Wang Siqi shook his head.
“Be careful, there might be a trap!”
“General, are we still going to chase after him or not?” At this moment, a soldier asked.
At this moment, a figure dressed in white appeared within the army of Wu Yue. He looked to be around fifteen or sixteen years old and was none other than the young Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom, Ye Chen.
Ye Chen looked at Wang Siqi and asked, “General Wang, do you dare to fight?”
As soon as he spoke, he instantly understood that he was the young Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom.
At this moment, Wang Siqi immediately gave an order, “Chase, capture the little Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom alive!”
Wang Siqi knew that as long as they captured the little Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom, they would have won half of the battle. Once they captured the little Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom, the Eastern Imperial Kingdom would be able to collapse on its own, and at that time, their losses would be greatly reduced.
This was a great temptation.
Therefore, Wang Siqi had to give chase!
Ye Chen led his 50,000-strong army and Wu Yue as they rushed toward the Changfeng Meadow. The hooves of their horses broke through the rolling yellow sand, and Ye Chen and the others directly stepped into the Changfeng Meadow.
At this moment, Wang Siqi stopped in his tracks, alarmed.
“General, why aren’t we giving chase again?” The deputy general looked at the vast grassland and asked.
At this moment, Wang Siqi said calmly, “In this vast grassland, if we chase after them and they attack us with fire, we will definitely suffer countless casualties.”
“Then what should we do?” The deputy general asked immediately.
Wang Siqi said calmly, “What wind is it today?”
“Reporting to general, it’s the west wind today!”
“West wind?”
Wang Siqi thought for a few seconds and said, “If it’s the west wind, they won’t set the fire.”
“Why?” The deputy general asked.
“If it’s the west wind, the fire is directed at them. If they set the fire, they will only harm themselves.”
“The little Emperor will personally go into battle. This is an opportunity that will never come again. We will fight and capture the little Emperor alive!”
Following Wang Siqi’s order, the 300,000 strong army immediately charged toward the Changfeng Meadow. At this moment, Ye Chen had already arrived at the place where Yang Xuan was lying in ambush. He looked at the 300,000 man army charging toward him, Yang Xuan hurriedly asked, “Your Majesty, can we set the fire now?”
Ye Chen shook his head and replied, “It’s not the time yet. Let’s wait for them to arrive.”
The 300,000 strong army was densely packed like ants as they charged into Changfeng Meadow. The grass was very deep and could submerge half of their bodies.
However, they did not care so much. What they wanted to do was to charge over and capture the little Emperor of the Eastern Imperial Kingdom alive.
Ye Chen looked indifferently at the people charging over and could not help but shake his head.
At this moment, the 300,000 man army had already sunk into the Changfeng Meadow.
At this moment, Ye Chen flew into the sky, and powerful True Qi instantly erupted.
He turned the divine ability he had signed in and obtained, the Imperial Wind incantation, and in an instant, a violent gale blew over from Ye Chen’s side toward Wang Siqi’s side.
The flames in Ye Chen’s hands were instantly released, and the Nanming Li fire instantly erupted.
At this moment, Wang Siqi’s deputy was instantly shocked.
“Not good, general, there’s suddenly an east wind!”
“What?” Wang Siqi was shocked.
He hurriedly shouted, “Everyone retreat!”
But at this time, it was already too late. Ye Chen’s 200,000 man army suddenly rushed out from the bushes. They lit up their rockets and shot toward Wang Siqi’s side.
The rockets danced in the sky like fireworks. They scattered and fell from the sky!
Sparks fell from the sky!
The sky looked like fireworks blooming. It was extremely beautiful.
However, this was a dangerous beauty. To the soldiers of Nanxuan Kingdom, this was their nightmare!
The grass had long been covered with oil by the army led by Yang Xuan. As the rockets fell, they lit up the grass!
Boom!
Instantly, a raging fire started burning.
The fire instantly engulfed the 300,000-strong army of the Nanxuan Kingdom. The 300,000-strong army was in the midst of a raging fire. At this moment, they had nowhere to hide and nowhere to run.
One had to know that the surroundings were filled with dry grass. It would catch fire with a single touch and then be filled with oil.
This was the true meaning of adding fuel to the fire.
Instantly, tongues of fire surged up. Like demons from hell, they devoured the army of the Nanxuan Kingdom.
In an instant, the raging flames surged upward like a demon devouring, a volcano erupting, and lava devouring, scaring them into fleeing in fear.
The raging flames seemed to have gone mad as they scattered in all directions with the wind, devouring everything without restraint. The crimson flames also seemed like an arrogant painter who used the brush in his hand to paint everything black.
At this moment, endless wails could be heard coming from the army of the Nanxuan Kingdom.
They were wailing, they were wailing!
Wang Siqi shouted for them to retreat as if he had gone mad. However, at this moment, the 300,000 man army had already turned into a pot of porridge.
They fled in all directions, wanting to escape from the engulfing flames.
However, at this moment, they could no longer go anywhere. It was too late.
The fire continued to spread, and endless tongues of fire devoured them.
The 300,000 man army seemed extremely small in this fire.
“Ah –”
“No –”
Ye Chen stood on one side and could hear the wails coming from the other side.
A few vice generals found Wang Siqi in the crowd and shouted, “General, let’s go!”
Under the protection of the vice generals, Wang Siqi put out the fire.
He looked at the soldiers in the fire and shouted, “Everyone, don’t panic. Retreat in an orderly manner. Retreat first before putting out the fire!”
In fact, Wang Siqi’s idea was correct. If they could retreat, they might not die. At most, they would be burned.
But now, his voice was so small in the endless fire that no one could hear him.
Even if someone could hear him, they would not care.
Because they were all on the verge of death. Everyone was focused on putting out the fire, but they were in the middle of the grass. No matter where they went, they would ignite the nearby hay, so they could not put out the fire at all.
Unless they were all burned to death...
Wang Siqi looked at all this and could not believe his eyes.
How could this be possible?
