The short spear that Ang Lee threw was aimed at An Qingxu at an extreme speed. If An Qingxu was hit, he would be severely injured even if he didn't die. Go!
.
"General, be careful!"
One of the soldiers saw the situation and immediately used his body to block the short spear.
"Ugh!"
The short spear pierced through the soldier's body and the huge force forced him to take a few steps back and hit An Qingxu.
The short spear that pierced through the soldier's body also pierced into An Qingxu's abdomen, causing him to feel a sharp pain in his abdomen. He couldn't control the arrow in his hand and shot it out randomly.
Looking at the tip of the spear that pierced half an inch into his abdomen, An Qingxu's face was filled with anger. He raised his head and glared at Ang Lee and the other two who were charging at him. He wanted to tear them into pieces.
"The general is injured. Quick, protect the general and retreat."
Two soldiers carried An Qingzong and turned to escape. Eight soldiers held swords in their hands and were ready to block Ang Lee and the other two.
Ang Lee had been a martial arts fanatic for more than ten years and had trained his skills well. Why would he care about the eight soldiers in front of him? In his eyes, dealing with these small soldiers was as easy as taking something out of his pocket.
"Kun Xiong, Fei Yu, leave no one alive!"
Ang Lee shouted and pulled out his sword from his waist and charged at the eight soldiers. Kun Xiong and Fei Yu also pulled out their swords and protected Ang Lee's flanks.
The eight soldiers had the advantage in numbers. At first, they still had a glimmer of hope. However, after exchanging blows, they realized that their abilities were not worth mentioning in front of Ang Lee. After a few rounds, the eight soldiers were killed on the spot by Ang Lee and the other two.
Zhang Erniu and his ten brothers rushed forward and killed all the soldiers who were lying on the ground. They also captured a man in white who was lucky enough to survive.
However, An Qingxu had already run more than a hundred steps under the protection of two soldiers. The Pinglu Army's camp was not far away. Ang Lee did not dare to act rashly and ordered them to give up the chase.
"Big Brother, there's only one left alive."
Li Kunxiong dragged the surviving white-robed man over and pulled out the white cloth from his mouth.
"Thank you for saving my life."
The white-robed man fell to his knees with a thump, his face filled with gratitude.
"Who are you? Who killed you?"
Ang Lee was expressionless and his tone was extremely cold. 8
.
"This lowly one is Zhao Si, the corporal of the Pinglu Army. Those people just now were the private soldiers of the Governor's Manor. The general leading them is the Governor's second son, An Qingxu."
An Qingxu, it was actually An Qingxu, An Lushan's second son!
Ang Lee originally thought that the young general was just an ordinary general of the Pinglu Army. He did not expect it to be the famous An Qingxu. If he had known it was An Qingxu, Ang Lee would have taken the risk to chase after him and kill him.
"An Qingxu, you're lucky this time."
"Then why did they want to kill you? What did you do wrong?"
Ang Lee stared into Zhao Si's eyes, his tone still cold.
"I don't know."
"No idea."
"I really don't know."
Seeing Zhao Si's eyes flickering, Ang Lee and Erniu looked at each other and knew that Zhao Si was the person they were looking for.
"The Pinglu Army sent two thousand elites to the north, but only twenty returned. Zhao Si, you're one of them right?"
When Zhao Si heard this, he was shocked and his body unconsciously trembled.
Ang Lee's lips curled into a cold smile as he looked into the distance, "Speak, what happened to White Wolf Village?"
"White Wolf Village, what White Wolf Village?"
Cold sweat appeared on Zhao Si's forehead.
"Okay, since you're not willing to speak, I'll help you. You brought a group of close to a hundred people into White Wolf Village and killed the villagers. After that, you encountered the Pinglu Army and lost more than half of your men. Only twenty people managed to escape. Am I right?"
Ang Lee's tone was cold, his eyes filled with killing intent.
"You, you, who are you? Why do you know so much?"
Cold sweat appeared on Zhao Si's forehead despite the cold weather. He felt that he had just escaped from Yama's palace, but the imps had already caught up to him.
He painfully closed his eyes as the fear of death appeared in his heart. Even though he acted crazily when he slaughtered the villagers, his heart could not help but tremble in the face of death. Okay.
.
"Zhao Si, we just want to know the truth. If you don't speak, hmph, it shouldn't be hard for me to find out who your parents and wife are, right?"
Erniu's tone was full of threats.
"No, I'll take responsibility for my own actions. If there's anything, come at me. I'll speak, I'll tell you everything."
In order not to implicate his family, Zhao Si told them everything he knew. Their group of two thousand elites was ordered to ambush a branch of the Nu Du Tribe. However, the main general underestimated the enemy and caused the army to suffer a crushing defeat. After that, they fled to the vicinity of White Wolf Village.
The two generals, Sun Xiaozhe and Tian Qianzhen, decided to slaughter the villagers of White Wolf Village to make up for their failure. They chopped off more than a hundred heads to claim credit for killing the enemy.
However, the sudden arrival of the rebel army completely ruined their plan. They lost another few dozen people and only twenty or so people fled back to Pinglu Army's camp.
As for how many villagers they killed, how many survivors there were, and what the rebel army did after taking over White Wolf Village, he did not know.
After returning to the camp, other than Sun Xiaozhe and Tian Qianzhen who were invited to the Governor's Office, the rest of them were imprisoned in a few barracks until they were escorted out of the camp to be executed.
"Sun Xiaozhe, Tian Qianzhen, these two bastards!"
Ang Lee clenched his fists in anger.
In order to make up for their own mistakes, they wantonly slaughtered defenseless civilians. They could even do such a heartless thing. This kind of person was no different from a beast.
Kun Xiong, Fei Yu, Erniu, and the others were also filled with righteous indignation.
"Big Brother, this is not a place to stay. We need to leave as soon as possible."
"Okay, let's return to White Wolf Village immediately."
"Big Brother, what about this person?"
"Kill him. If he lives, he will implicate his family."
"Yes, Big Brother."
Li Kun Xiong replied and killed Zhao Si with one slash.
When Ang Lee and the rest of the fourteen people put on their skis, a large number of torches appeared in the distance. Needless to say, it was the Pinglu Army that An Qingxu had sent over.
The corners of Li An's mouth curled into a sneer as he led the group away swiftly.
The wound on An Qingxu's abdomen was not deep. After escaping back to Pinglu Army's camp, he simply bandaged it and endured the pain to lead three hundred cavalry out of the camp.
"General, they escaped."
An Qingxu looked at the corpses on the ground and said coldly, "Clean up the corpses and see who is missing."
"Yes, General."
A moment later, all the corpses on the ground were gathered together in five rows of ten.
"General, not a single one is missing. They are all here."
An Qingxu sighed in relief as he looked at the twenty-three corpses of the white-clothed soldiers and the twenty-seven corpses of his private soldiers. Although he had encountered a mishap, An Lushan's mission to silence him had been completed. All twenty-three soldiers of the Pinglu Army were dead.
"Carefully verify their identities and bury them on the spot."
An Qingxu's tone was cold. He turned his horse around and galloped back to Pinglu Army's camp.
Liucheng County, Governor's Mansion.
An Lushan looked at the report sent from Pinglu Army's camp. He was unhappy and threw it on the ground.
"Governor, what made you so unhappy?"
A slightly fat middle-aged woman was massaging An Lushan's legs.
This woman was close to forty years old, but she was quite beautiful. Especially her pair of soul-stirring eyes that made people numb. They were the most charming.
"Hmph, Second Lang, this bastard, was actually injured by a thief. How embarrassing."
"Governor, Second Lang is skilled in archery and horse riding. How could he be injured by a thief? This thief is quite skilled."
An Lushan was furious and scolded, "It's all your son's fault. If it wasn't for him, Second Lang wouldn't have been injured."
"Please forgive me, Governor. Please forgive me."
The middle-aged woman hurriedly knelt and begged for mercy.
She was Sun Xiaozhe's mother, Madam Zou. An Lushan had given Sun Xiaozhe the mission of ambushing Nu Jie's troops because he had listened to Madam Zou's pillow talk. He wanted to give Sun Xiaozhe a chance to perform meritorious deeds and promote him.
However, An Lushan only saw that Sun Xiaozhe was capable and ruthless. He ignored the fact that he had no combat experience. An Lushan also had a lot of responsibility for the defeat of the northern expedition.
As for Sun Xiaozhe's massacre of the people of White Wolf Village, he had to tell the truth under Yan Zhuang's interrogation. An Lushan was quite impressed with this matter. If not for the sudden arrival of the Pinglu Army, Sun Xiaozhe's results would have been reported to the imperial court.
"Alright, get up. The floor is cold."
An Lushan loved chubby women the most. How could he bear to punish Madam Zou?
"Thank you, Governor."
Madam Zou slowly got up and continued to rub An Lushan's legs. Occasionally, she would throw flirtatious glances at him. Her seductive eyes seemed to say, "Hurry up and f * ck me, hurry up and f * ck me."
An Lushan's heart swayed. He reached out and grabbed Madam Zou's fat waist. He teased, "If not for you, I would have chopped up your useless son and fed him to the dogs."
"Governor."
In the front yard of the ancestral home, Kun Xiong and Fei Yu were making short spears. Ang Lee, Li Feishou Yu, and Zhang Erniu were leaning against the pillar with heavy hearts.
There was still a possibility that the seedlings had been taken away by the Pinglu Army.
Then, what should they do next? Should they immediately head north to find news of their family or stay and take revenge for the people of the village?
If they went north to find news of their family, it was very likely that they would find nothing. They might even receive the bad news that their family had been killed. If they stayed and took revenge for the people of the village, they might miss the best opportunity to find their family.
Ang Lee had to make a choice. This choice made him feel extremely pained and conflicted.
"You're fine. What are your plans next?"
Li Feishou Yu looked sideways at Ang Lee.
"I'll kill Sun Xiaozhe and Tian Qianzhen first. Then, I'll think about the future."
At this moment, Ang Lee had made up his mind. He still could not let go of the hatred of destroying his family and slaughtering the villagers. If he did not kill Sun Xiaozhe and Tian Qianzhen, he would not be able to swallow this anger.
"Dalang, you're right. We should kill them. Also, kill An Lushan as well. An Lushan is the one you should kill the most."
Erniu suddenly clenched his fists in agitation.
