ng he couldn't ask a single word about. He bowed deeply and said, "Yes, sir."He went to the study and saw a letter on the desk. The steward only saw the words "Personally written by Yelü Shenxuan, Pri...Chapter 1454: It's a Pity Such a Fine Beast Was Wasted

A chaotic management style led to the Prince of Ning being sent to Moonlit Pass to offer a humiliating apology, leaving the 150,000 soldiers of the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry with their faces slapped red.

It was dead silent. No one dared to speak a word.

Even the body of Ye Wang, still warm from death, lying on the ground, is the best example.

Li Chen finished speaking and swung himself onto his horse.

Thus, he stood above them, looking down at Li Songru and the army behind him.

His gaze swept over the sprawling military camp before settling on Li Songru. "That Ye Wang may be reckless," Li Chen said calmly, "but he did say one thing right."

"Soldiers defend their homes and country, and the stability of the mountains and rivers depends on warriors offering their heads and shedding blood."

Changing the subject, Li Chen's tone rose slightly, and he said: "But, a martial artist's duty is to protect their home and country. These four words, 'protect one's home and country,' refer to protecting one's family and safeguarding the nation, not using the imperial court's military pay to become someone's private army. No one can do that."

"The Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun are renowned throughout the land. What I see today leaves me deeply disappointed. This camp is unworthy of its name, let alone any advancements."

After saying this, Li Chen did not look at Li Songru's dark face. He glanced at the corpse of the magnificent war horse on the ground and said lightly, "It's a pity for such a good animal."

After finishing his words, Li Chen pulled on the reins, turned his horse's head, and rode away.

Li Chen went first, followed by Xu Wei, Wu Ban Shan, and then the Jinyiwei guards, bodyguards, and monks, leaving in order.

Come and go in a hurry, Li Chen left, leaving behind two people, one horse, and three corpses.

The northwest wind whipped up sand, and Li Songru stood still, staring blankly at the corpse on the ground.

Finally, someone couldn't hold back any longer and came to Li Songru's side, gritting his teeth and saying, "General Li, today's events have completely ruined the reputation of the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun!"

What's wrong with being clean

Li Songru turned his head and stared at the general who was speaking, his face expressionless.

He said coldly, "Ye Wang didn't heed the warnings, charged at His Highness, and was killed on the spot for the crime of looking up to one's sovereign. Such a rebellious person deserved this fate! What could possibly be ruined about the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun!"

A shout, made the already sullen and oppressive atmosphere even more silent.

Gritting his teeth, Li Songru roared, "Collect the bodies and send someone to inform King Ning immediately. Request King Ning to arrive as soon as possible to handle the aftermath. To all soldiers present, before King Ning arrives, whoever dares to leave the camp will be killed without mercy!"

Leaving behind such a sentence, Li Songru strode into the camp without looking back.

On the other end, Wu Banshan was communicating rapidly with Li Chenfei.

"Your Highness, this humble servant believes that it is necessary to dispatch someone to keep a close eye on the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun. Should any disturbance arise, we must be prepared to respond promptly."

Li Chen nodded and said, "General Wu makes a good point."

Wu BanShan said again, "Although King Ning deliberately arrived late, once this happens, at most half a day he will be able to meet up with the Sixteen Riders of Yan Yun. We must guard against it."

"What are we protecting against"

Li Chen glanced at Wu BanShan and said, "Don't worry, King Ning won't rebel."

Wuyan Shan urgently said: "There is nothing absolute in the world."

"Then, is General Wu's statement itself absolute" Li Chen countered.

Wu Ban Shan said helplessly, "In terms of eloquence, I am no match for Your Highness."

But I still insist on guarding against King Ning, just in case.

Li Chen said: "According to what you say, how should we defend With 150,000 Yan Yun cavalry attacking Yueya Pass from behind, and another 600,000 Liao troops attacking head-on, General Wu, how can we defend"

Wu Ban Shan said quickly: "Immediately mobilize troops from Gansu and Shaanxi. If necessary, troops can be mobilized from the Jing Province, Nanhe and other Central Plains regions." eye of the storm, was the most relaxed.He stood there nonchalantly, as if he wasn't worried at all that the Prince would actually kill him.Zhou Changshou sat beside him, feeling increasingly uneasy....
