"According to what you said, then Hong Lie's death, I'll just let it go?" King Ji Wu's voice became incomparably cold, like a gust of cold winter wind.
The iron masked man said indifferently, "Of course not. If the prince wants to cause trouble for Ping Xi Wang, it's not impossible, but you have to change to another method."
"Tell me."
The iron masked man stood up and whispered a few words in King Ji Wu's ear. King Ji Wu nodded repeatedly and said, "Alright, let's do as you say."
On the third day of the Battle of Bauhinia City.
After retreating that day, Ping Xi Wang's army camped in the wilderness thirty kilometers away from Bauhinia City. It took three whole days for the morale of the soldiers to recover a little. Ping Xi Wang's face had been gloomy for the past three days. Even his trusted aides didn't dare to provoke him at this time. Ping Xi Wang was indeed very angry. Originally, Hong Lie had been killed by the other party's experts, which was exactly what he wanted. After that, everything went smoothly. As long as he took care of that crazy woman, there would be no other experts in Bauhinia City who could stop him. But at this time, that surprise attack appeared in the sky. Every time those extraordinarily powerful beams of light fell, a large number of his soldiers would be harvested. So far, Ping Xi Wang had not figured out whether it was the ability of a certain expert or a secret weapon of Bauhinia City.
If it was the former, if there was a hidden expert in Bauhinia City, why didn't he use it to deal with him? After all, it would be much more cost-effective to kill him than to bombard the soldiers. If it was the latter, if the enemy had such an overbearing weapon, they should have used it during the battle of Ark Harbor. Then, the one who would have lost now would only be him.
After thinking about it, there was no answer. Ping Xi Wang waved his hand, not in the mood to listen to the musicians' music, and drove them all out of the tent.
After the musicians left, a general came in with a troubled expression. Ping Xi Wang glanced at him and asked, "Is there a message from King Ji Wu?"
"I just received news that King Ji Wu will arrive at our camp this evening."
Ping Xi Wang frowned, "That old thing is coming personally? Isn't he besieging a barbarian city? "
"Yes, it is said that King Ji Wu handed the task of besieging the city to one of his generals, while he brought his personal guard commander, Yu Miao, and an army over."
"He even brought an army?" Ping Xi Wang shouted, "Pass down the order, let everyone get ready, the old thing is probably looking for trouble."
"Yes, Prince."
In the evening, the setting sun was like blood.
Under the scarlet light, a blood tide appeared on the horizon.
Regardless of whether it was the people or the horses, they were all dressed in red armor. This was the most elite trump card of the Martial King, the Blood Cloak Army! It was said that wherever this army went, rivers of blood flowed. The armors of these soldiers were dyed red with the blood of their enemies. Seeing the red tide, Ping Xi Wang narrowed her eyes and said, "Sure enough, this old fellow came with ill intentions, unexpectedly bringing his main force. I'd like to see if he really dares to risk universal condemnation and declare war on me. "
When he passed the news of Hong Lie's death to King Ji Wu, Ping Xi Wang had already thought that this Old Prince would come looking for trouble. However, he did not expect that King Ji Wu would bring the Blood Cloak Army over so openly. However, he did not believe that King Ji Wu would dare to use force against him. After all, he was also a noble of the empire. If King Ji Wu used force against Ping Xi Wang because of a foster son, he would definitely be impeached by all the people in the imperial court.
Before sunset, the murderous army arrived at Ping Xi Wang's camp. The Blood Cloak Army stationed themselves outside the camp and set up tents. King Ji Wu, along with the commander of his personal guards, Yu Miao, and a group of trusted guards, went straight into Ping Xi Wang's tent. Without notifying anyone, they just barged in. Ping Xi Wang almost lost his temper, but in the end, he restrained himself and said with a forced smile, "King Ji Wu, what is your purpose in coming here? If you have something to say, just let me know. There is no need for you to come here personally."
Unexpectedly, King Ji Wu did not respond, but sneered and said, "Ping Xi Wang, you really put on airs. You should know that when your father, the Prince of Anyang, sees me, he has to respectfully call me Prince Nian. But you, you call me by my title. Awesome, awesome. For the Prince of Anyang to have such an outstanding son like you, he should be happy in the underworld. "
He especially emphasized the word 'outstanding'. How could Ping Xi Wang not hear the hidden meaning behind his words? He sneered and said, "If this is the Empire, in the imperial court, then calling me Prince Nian is not too much. It's not too much to call him Prince Nian, but don't forget, King Ji Wu, we are on the battlefield of a foreign country. The Empire has always been a battlefield, regardless of seniority, only based on merit. So, I will save those red tape. What do you think, King Ji Wu? "
King Ji Wu laughed and said, "Well, since you are talking about merit, then I will discuss it with you. It has been three months since you arrived in this Western Continent country, but you, Ping Xi Wang, seem to have stagnated. You have failed to live up to His Majesty's Ping Xi title. Seeing that you are fighting so hard, I kindly sent my son Hong Lie to help you, but you are good. In just one battle, you have killed my most favored son. May I ask how Ping Xi Wang explains this matter? "
Ping Xi Wang narrowed his eyes and said, "At that time, it was Commander Hong who insisted on being the vanguard. All the soldiers in my camp can testify to this. If Your Highness does not believe me, you can find someone to ask. "
"Forget it, this is in your camp. If you say black, do your subordinates dare to point white? If you say it is a horse, do they dare to call it a deer? Do you really think that I am a fool! "King Ji Wu's arrogance was overflowing, insufferably arrogant.
Ping Xi Wang nodded and said, "Then what do you want?"
"It's very simple. This time, I came to avenge my son Hong Lie. My son Hong Lie actually died in that enemy city. Then I will slaughter everyone in the city and let them be buried with my son Hong Lie! "King Ji Wu took a step forward and said," This is a personal grudge. It has nothing to do with Ping Xi Wang here. Why don't you ask the Great Victory King to see if there are any barbarian cities that have not been captured and let you join in the fun. You can also accumulate some military merits and go back to see your father in the underworld. "
"You!" Ping Xi Wang finally couldn't help but roar, "King Ji Wu, don't go too far! I have lost more than ten thousand troops from the Ark Harbor to here. I was the one who attacked that Bauhinia City first, how can I give up halfway? You are just openly robbing me of my military merits under the guise of avenging Hong Lie! You're being unreasonable! "
