Chapter Nine

Outside the city of Xiliang City, Zi Chen was wearing a black suit, with black hair tied behind his head, revealing a handsome face, and carrying a huge black longbow on his back. A pair of black eyes, like gems, swept across a long dragon composed of slaves in front of him running to the north. Each slave had a slave's mark on his face, but because there were too many people, they did not put chains on these people, but tied their hands with ropes.

Under the supervision of the three thousand iron cavalry, the more than 20,000 people walked heavy steps and advanced towards the north step by step.

"General, you gave me three thousand green cavalrymen, what should you do?" Zi Chen felt moved when he saw the energetic green cavalrymen.

Zi Lie asked Ximen Zhan to prepare manpower for him. When he thought, it would be nice to not give those miscellaneous soldiers to him. Who would have thought that Ximen Zhan would give him the three thousand green iron cavalry in his hands?

According to the military level of the empire, a magistrate can carry up to two thousand soldiers, and these three thousand are already over.

"Haha, now there are 10,000 Xuanyi Iron Cavalry guarding Xiliang City, and 50,000 reinforcements on the road. My three thousand green iron cavalry are optional, but you are different. The journey is dangerous. With these three thousand iron cavalry here, you will always have a better chance of survival!" Ximen Zhan shook his head with a smile.

"General, you are so nice to me..." Zi Chen looked moved.

"Haha, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid Xiliang City had been destroyed. What's this? You have to take care of yourself along the way. If there is really an emergency, saving your life is the most important thing. As long as you are alive, there will be a chance, do you understand?" Ximen Zhan shook his head bitterly.

Zi Chen was originally a great hero who saved Xiliang City. He should have accepted the reward from the court with supreme glory, but because of Zi Lie's arrival, he accepted this almost dead task. As the lord of a city, he had no choice but to do anything, which made him feel full of guilt.

"Don't worry, if I really meet the Demon Iron Cavalry, I will definitely be the first to take the lead in running away..." Zi Chen smiled.

"Haha, you guy is still so naughty. OK, it's getting late, so get on the road quickly..."

"Wait a minute, there's one more thing..."

"What's up?"

"Look, you have given me your beloved Green Iron Cavalry, why not marry your beloved daughter to me?" Zi Chen leaned closer.

"..." Ximen Zhan was speechless again. He never thought that it was this time, and this guy was still thinking about his daughter.

"Although she is a little younger, I don't mind at all..."

"Get out..." Ximen Zhan was angry again. You don't mind, what else do I mind? The angry Ximen Zhan put it hard on Zi Chen's horse. The carefully selected horse neighed and left. On the horse's back, only Zi Chen's laughter came.

Seeing Zi Chen's long-distance back and hearing the hearty laughter from his mouth, Ximen Zhan's eyes slowly filled with tears.

"Little guy, you have to remember that you are the son of General Ziyang, and you must not have anything to do..." He murmured, and then Ximen Zhan turned back to the city with his deputy general.

However, Zi Chen did not look at all depressed and led the three thousand iron cavalry to run north.

After about a day of travel, Zi Chen and others had arrived at the edge of the Western Wilderness. A little further west was the territory of the grassland demon.

Looking at the setting sun on the edge of the sky, an iron cavalry rushed over quickly and came to Zi Chen's side. He lifted off the mask of his helmet and revealed a rough face. It turned out to be Luo Yun, who had always looked down on Zi Chen before.

"Sir, it's getting late. Are we camping here?" Luo Yun's face was filled with respect.

Seeing Luo Yun's rough face, Zi Chen did not answer him immediately, but instead sighed: "General Luo, why are you doing this?"

Luo Yun was already a side general, and with his achievements in killing the grassland demon this time, he had full hope of being promoted to a major general. However, after hearing about the tasks he accepted, he voluntarily resigned from his side general position and became the most ordinary cavalry in Qingyi, following Zi Chen.

"Sir, I, Lao Luo, is a rough man, but I also know how to repay kindness. If it weren't for your two arrows that day, I, Lao Luo, would have made any contributions, and whether I, Lao Luo, could have saved my life. Now that you have been harmed by a traitor and have accepted such dangerous tasks, how can I, Lao Luo, be at ease to receive the credit? Not only me, but if it weren't for the concern that Zi Lie's bastard, Lin Hu and Liang Yin would like to resign from their military posts and follow the adults..." Luo Yun said with a solemn look on his face.

Seeing Luo Yun's solemn expression, Zi Chen felt another touch. Even though the guy in front of him was offended by him in the past, he knew that these soldiers on the border had always been straightforward and said whatever he wanted.

"General Luo..." Zi Chen wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Luo Yun.

"Sir, Lao Luo is no longer a general, but a small soldier under his command. If you have anything to do, just give me orders and go up to the mountain of swords and seas of fire and fire."

"Okay, Luo Yun obeys the order..."

"I'm here..." Luo Yun immediately clasped his fists.

"I am now appointing you as the Qingyi School Captain and commanding the Third Brigade of the Qingyi Iron Cavalry."

"Sir, thank you..."

"Now, gather the prisoners up soon, I have something to say." Zi Chen said solemnly.

"yes……"

A quarter of an hour later, all 20,000 prisoners were summoned and gathered in the center. None of the three thousand cavalry in green dismounted, and they rode war horses around the 20,000 people. As long as there was any abnormal movement, the group of cavalry would cut into it without hesitation and kill them.

They would not be lenient with these prisoners.

Zi Chen rode his horse to the mound and looked down at the densely packed 20,000 prisoners below. With the help of the light shining from the setting sun, Zi Chen could clearly see the expressions of frightened, angry, unwilling, humiliated and other expressions on the faces of these prisoners.

"I think you all should know the news that your Prince Wanyan Gu died. That's right, your Prince Wanyan Gu, including the immortal master you invited, was shot to death by me..." Zi Chen suddenly raised his voice, and a sound like a roar of thunder echoed on the grassland. The prisoners below heard his roar, and all their eyes showed surprise. Obviously, they didn't expect that this young and inconspicuous boy who looked even weaker than the women in the clan was the archer who killed Prince Wanyan Gu?

"I know you don't believe it, but it doesn't matter. I just want to tell you that Wanyan Gu is dead. You should know better than me about the position of Wanyan Gu in your Khan's mind. The prince is dead. You so-called warriors who protect the prince are still alive. You, what do you think, will your Khan punish you?"

As soon as Zi Chen's voice fell, a noisy sound came from below. Obviously, these 20,000 prisoners knew that with the Khan's long-standing style, even if they returned to the grassland, they would inevitably be severely punished. At the least, they would be cut off with one knife, or at the worst, they would be dismembered by five horses, and even implicated their families.

Thinking that his family might be implicated, these people looked at Zi Chen with hatred. If it weren't for him, how could he be captured?

Some people even had fierce lights in their eyes.

I was already wondering whether to fight these Han people in my heart.

"You hate me very much, right? But I want to ask you, what qualifications do you have to hate me? You are the one who killed my compatriots, you are the one who slaughtered my Tang village, and you are the one who attacked Xiliang City. If you want to kill me, can't you resist?" Zi Chen roared, and the slaves who were already a little restless below immediately became quiet.

Yes, the invader is himself, and he is just a counterattack. What qualifications do you have to hate him?

"The battlefield is ruthless, the sword is eyeless, I am strong enough, so I killed your prince, and my army defeated you. Whether you are convinced or not, you are all a group of losers. The losers are not qualified to say hatred. Now you are just my prisoners, but I don't want prisoners..." Zi Chen roared again. As soon as these words came out, the faces of more than 20,000 people present turned pale. Not to mention those prisoners, even Luo Yun and others looked at Zi Chen with disbelief.

Don't want prisoners? Could he be ready to kill all of these prisoners?

Even if you want to kill, you don’t have to yell like this? Once these prisoners riot at this time, even three thousand iron cavalry may not be able to withstand it?

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. If it weren't for me, you would have died long ago." Seeing everyone's drastic changes, Zi Chen sneered.

Regardless of whether these prisoners admitted it or not, they all breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. If they could live, who would be willing to die?

"Not long ago, the new commander of Xiliang City, my elder brother, Major General Zi Lie, decided to secretly execute you. It was me who saved you, just because I think you are warriors on the grassland and the most brave warriors. You can die, but you shouldn't die under the butcher's knife, and you will never die in the prisoner's camp. Your destination should be the battlefield. Now, I give you two choices, one, immediately go back to your grassland from here to welcome the anger of your sweat, and the other, follow me peacefully and peacefully..." Zi Chen roared, his handsome face with a ferocious face.

As he finished speaking, the huge scene became quiet, including Luo Yun and others, looking at Zi Chen with shock. They never expected that Zi Chen would release these slave soldiers. If Zi Lie knew, he could be charged with collusion with him.

As for the prisoners in the center of the field, they were all staring at each other, and it seemed difficult to believe their ears?

This person who once killed the prince, the person who killed the mysterious immortal master, the person who determined his life and death, actually wanted to let him wait for him to return to the grassland? Isn't this a dream?
