Under Han Gang's lead, a thousand private soldiers charged towards Yuzhou City. This news quickly reached the ears of the County Governor's Manor's matriarch. The matriarch was not too muddle-headed, but she was too old. Even if she knew what was going on, she could not make any decisions. She could only sigh: "Chaos, this is chaos! I've already told Ping 'er that this land does not belong to the Teng family, but no one listened to me. Now, retribution has come, retribution has come! "
The County Governor's Manor was in chaos. Within Yuzhou City, the spies that Feng Yu Heng had placed outside the Ji 'an County quickly reported back, explaining the movements of the thousand private soldiers.
After Feng Yu Heng heard this, she quickly got up and left three hidden guards in the manor to protect the people who stayed behind. She then ordered Li Zhu to gather the troops. She then brought Wang Chuan and Huang Quan to the government office. Qian Fengshou also received the report and was anxiously waiting at the manor's entrance. Seeing Feng Yu Heng arrive, he quickly went forward to receive her orders. Feng Yu Heng only said: "Ordinary officials stay in the city to calm the people. City guards gather and follow this Princess to face the enemy!"
As she said this, the gates of Yuzhou City had already been broken through by the private soldiers. Under Han Gang's lead, they arrogantly charged into the city. According to their style, they would have started smashing things up as soon as they entered the city. However, it was currently late at night and there was no one on the streets. Even if they wanted to smash things up, there was no place to start. Han Gang simply ordered everyone: "Save your strength and deal with that Princess Ji 'an with everything you have."
Finally, the two sides met on the main street of Yuzhou City.
Compared to the thousand private soldiers of the Teng family, Feng Yu Heng's men were pitifully few. Even with the addition of the five hundred city guards of Yuzhou City, it was still not enough. Practically the moment that Han Gang met with Feng Yu Heng's troops, he could not hold back his laughter. Reaching out, he pointed at Feng Yu Heng's side and loudly laughed, saying: "Imperial Daughter Ji An, you're prepared to use these few people to fight against my troops? Hahahaha! You're really a little girl who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. These people aren't even enough to fill the gaps between our teeth. You little girl who's still wet behind the ears, you'd better hurry back to the capital and stop making a fool of yourself here! "
These boorish people didn't know how to control their words, and each sentence was worse than the last. However, Feng Yu Heng wasn't angry, because she knew that the other party had to pay the price for saying such words. Moreover, this price wasn't on credit, and had to be paid immediately.
Sure enough, just as Han Gang finished his last word, blood suddenly gushed out of his mouth that he didn't have time to close. His teeth were knocked out one by one by the hidden weapon and all of them entered his throat. He swallowed them into his stomach along with the blood. And the person who had acted was none other than Ban Zou, who could not bear to hear an outsider speak ill of his master.
Han Gang's teeth had suddenly been knocked out, but he didn't know who had hit him. All of his teeth had been swallowed into his stomach, causing him to feel both pain and nausea. There was even one last tooth that was stuck in his throat, causing him to cough.
Feng Yu Heng was amused until she giggled, "I'm truly sorry, but my subordinates can't bear to see this imperial daughter being bullied. This time, you're lucky and only lost a tooth. Normally speaking, they would directly take the head. However, you also saw that although we have fewer people, when it comes to war, victory isn't decided by having more people. Elite soldiers don't fear shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Teng Family, have you prepared your coffins? If not, then we'll have to clean up the battlefield and drag you outside the city to burn your corpses. "
She spoke with a smile, but each word was shocking. The heads of the private soldiers swelled when they heard this, and when they saw that Han Gang's teeth had been knocked out in the blink of an eye, they suddenly felt that they had been too rash in charging into Yu Zhou City. A sense of fear spread into their hearts, causing many people to have thoughts of retreating at this moment.
Han Gang had lost his teeth, but it wasn't life-threatening. However, when he spoke, he sounded like a toothless old woman, which was strange no matter how one listened to him. He pointed at Feng Yu Heng and loudly shouted: "Bold little girl, daring to touch your Grandpa Han, today, Grandpa Han will have your head fall to the ground and your people will have to collect your corpse!"
He spoke such fierce words, but they did not scare Feng Yu Heng in the slightest. Instead, he heard Feng Yu Heng say: "Have my head fall to the ground? Then you'll have to ask my future husband, the Ninth Prince, if he's willing or not! "
Han Gang was filled with anger, and his mind became heated. How could he care about the Ninth Prince or the Ninth Prince? He didn't even notice the faint trace of fear on the faces of his brothers as he continued to shout: "Bring it on! Fight to the death with Grandpa Han! "
Following Han Gang's shout, a chaotic battle broke out between the two sides. Li Zhu had even led his men forward a few steps, but at this moment, they heard a commotion among the Teng family's private soldiers. A scout quickly ran forward and said to Han Gang: "Marshal Han, not good, we've been surrounded!"
Han Gang was stunned: "What surrounded? There are only a few hundred people on the other side, how can they surround us? "
"No, no!" The scout anxiously said: "It's not just a few hundred people, they have tens of thousands of people! They've already surrounded Jade State City, and the person leading them has already entered the city and is heading this way! "
"Tens of thousands of people?" Han Gang was a little confused when he heard this. He didn't care about a few hundred people, and he could fight a few thousand people, but the difference between tens of thousands of people was too great! The Teng family's informants had never said that this Princess Ji An had a backup plan. They had never heard of tens of thousands of people coming out of nowhere, so what should they do? "Did you see it clearly?" He asked the scout again, "Since it's tens of thousands of people, they must have come with banners. Did you see where they came from? What was written on the banners? "
The scout scratched his head, "It seemed to have the word 'Feng' written on it! I don't know which side they're from, but they're definitely not helping us because the moment they entered the city, they killed the brothers we left at the city gates! "
"Hiss!" Han Gang sucked in a breath of cold air, finally realizing that the situation was bad. However, it was already too late for him to retreat now. Dense masses of people were surging onto this street from all directions of Jade Prefecture City. Those banners with the word "Wind" were so conspicuous in the dark night that they stung his eyes even more than if his teeth had fallen out. But Han Gang could not understand, what did the word 'Feng' mean?
At this time, Feng Yu Heng also noticed the foreign soldiers that had suddenly poured in from outside Jade State City. The word 'Feng' also entered her eyes, but her heart was moved. Although she felt that it was not very likely, there was no one else in Dashun who could command troops, other than that person, who was worthy of the word 'Feng'. But why had that person come to Jade State City? And with an army of thirty thousand?
For a moment, both sides were puzzled. But at this time, a person riding a handsome horse calmly came out of the army with the word 'Feng'. He stood at the front of the army, dressed in a grey robe, and had a strong scholarly aura. He seemed to be incompatible with the army behind him. But the moment he opened his mouth, the words he spoke caused Han Gang and the thousand Teng family soldiers to fall into despair. He said, "Ji An's County Governor Teng Ping has rebelled. I have led troops here today to quell the rebellion for Imperial Father!" With that, he waved his right hand and thirty thousand soldiers from the Northeast attacked. In the blink of an eye, the thousand Teng family soldiers were drowned out without a trace.
With such a large army pressuring the border, it was fortunate that it was at night. Otherwise, the citizens of Jade State City would have been scared half to death. However, the 'Feng' army was strictly disciplined and moved quickly without any hesitation. Soon, the thousand private soldiers were completely wiped out.
Blood flowed all over the ground, and the entire street was dyed red with blood. One could faintly hear the cries of the private soldiers who were not completely dead, but they did not receive the slightest bit of sympathy. Soon, they died in pain.
Jade State's Prefect, Qian Fengshou, was a civil official. Although his son was a deputy general on the battlefield, he had never seen the blood of the battlefield. At this moment, looking at the blood that had flowed to his feet and breathing in the bloody smell of Jade State City, he almost vomited. However, the advisor beside him helped him up and said in a low voice, "Sir, you must bear with it! You are the Prefect. If you faint or vomit at this time, it would be beneath your status. "
Qian Fengshou also understood this. Moreover, he had already recognized the person who had brought thirty thousand soldiers to Jade State. His forehead was covered in cold sweat. He did not know what kind of wind was stirring up in Jade State these days to attract such important people!
He hurriedly led the people on his side forward. He didn't care about the blood on the ground. He knelt down and kowtowed to the young master in blue. At the same time, he shouted, "This humble subject kowtows in salute to Your Highness the Sage King. Long live Your Highness the Sage King!"
The person who had come was none other than the Sixth Prince, Xian King Xuan Tianfeng.
He glanced at Qian Fengshou. His face was still filled with a scholarly aura. He raised his hand and said, "Sir Qian, please rise."
Qian Fengshou stood up. His body was covered in blood. He swayed and looked very weak.
Xuan Tianfeng did not pay attention to him. Instead, he urged his horse to walk towards Feng Yu Heng. The two's horses faced each other. Xuan Tianfeng smiled calmly, "Sister-in-law, Sixth Brother did not come late, right?"
Feng Yu Heng smiled and replied, "Not late, not late. But, Sixth Brother, why did you come?"
While the two were talking, Qian Fengshou felt awkward standing there. Thus, he found some work for himself and ordered the soldiers of Jade State City to clean up the battlefield. Behind Feng Yu Heng, Li Zhu also took the initiative to organize a retreat and return to their original residence. The thirty thousand soldiers of the Northeast Army did not stay. Instead, they were led by a deputy general to Ji 'an County. Even Wang Chuan and Huang Quan followed Li Zhu's group back. In the blink of an eye, aside from the soldiers cleaning up the street, only Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianfeng were left, as well as their respective hidden guards.
Xuan Tianfeng had no intention of looking at this bloody scene. He subconsciously turned his head away, but he could not avoid it. Feng Yuheng took the initiative to suggest going to the residence that she was temporarily living in, Xuan Tianfeng naturally did not have any objections. The two spurred their horses back. Along the way, Xuan Tianfeng said to her, "In fact, two months before the new year, the Northeast Army had already quietly retreated under Imperial Father's secret decree. The army dispersed without alerting anyone. Originally, they wanted to hide in the suburbs of the capital for the time being, but they were afraid that there would be sudden movements in the capital. Imperial Father and Ninth Brother would not be able to deal with it. However, I was worried about the situation here, so I spoke to Imperial Father in private and brought my men here to help you. " He saw Feng Yu Heng's expression change and could not bear to see her feel burdened, so he said, "This was all approved by Imperial Father. I am just following orders. You don't need to thank me. If you want to thank me, then wait until you return to the capital to thank Imperial Father."
Feng Yu Heng nodded, but she still said, "No matter what, Sixth Brother's great kindness will be remembered by Heng!"
