Chapter 1696: Heaven Net and Earth Web

, "But he's so fast, wouldn't he have been caught before he even reached here"Su Pingbei sneered coldly, "So this is why I need everyone's help. We still have over 2,000 people here. The Liao army in...Chapter 1696: Heaven Nets and Earth Traps

One character, wielding a murderous intent.

Su Pingbei's men were already the elite among elites. After this period of fighting side-by-side, experiencing both hardship and glory, their trust and understanding had become undeniable. So when Su Pingbei roared that one word "charge," everyone almost reflexively drew their weapons and then followed Su Pingbei as they ran wildly.

The sudden change did not cause the Liao army to panic.

The soldiers at the city gate post obviously didn't want to risk their lives against Su Pingbei. They calmly ran to pull the drawbridge, intending to close the city gates.

Not only that, but on the surrounding city walls and in the nearby streets which just moments ago were deserted, ghostly hordes of Liao soldiers materialized.

Su Pingbei just glanced and confirmed that his previous guess was right.

But now, it's pointless to say anything.

The key is to keep the city gate open, otherwise you'll become trapped like a turtle in its shell and won't be able to escape.

Brothers, carve a path with blood! Take one and it's a profit, two is a windfall! If we survive this, I will personally petition for the fallen brothers! Tell the court, tell the people of Qin, we have not disgraced our nation!

Su Pingbei's roar ignited the blood of the hundreds of soldiers behind him.

By this point, they had all mentally prepared themselves for the possibility that they might never return. Now that the mission was going smoothly and casualties were minimal, it should have been the best possible outcome. But now, an accident had occurred. Even so, no one was afraid. They were facing death anyway; killing one enemy was a good thing, killing two was even better.

These hundreds of people actually burst forth with an earth-shattering killing intent. The roars and war cries were so loud that they even startled the Liao army swarming in from all directions, causing them to change color.

On the battlefield, it's ultimately a contest between brave warriors when paths converge. Even the most brilliant strategies devised by commanders can only be realized on the battlefield. In the midst of clashing armies, what truly prevails is the soldiers' fighting spirit and combat proficiency.

Within the walls of Yueya Pass, most of the Liao army were wounded soldiers. The elite troops had already been taken away by Yelü Shenxuan, leaving behind only second-rate soldiers. Their fighting spirit was not strong to begin with, and now encountering Su Pingbei's hundreds of men, who were so fierce and formidable, their morale had weakened by a full one percent.

While Zhao Tailai was grabbed by Su Pingbei and dragged along as he dashed towards the city gate.

Zhao Tailai's face turned green.

"What are you dragging me into!"

Su Pingbei was too lazy to answer him. At this time, he had already rushed to the guard post, grabbed Zhao Tailei with one hand, and slashed down the soldier operating the gate with a knife in the other. Then he stood alone at the city gate, roaring at his brothers who were still entangled with the Liaoning army chasing after them: "Go! Go quickly!"

Having said his piece, he shoved aside the several soldiers who were tugging at him, urging him to leave first. He pushed them out of the city gate and shouted in a fierce voice, "Those who can leave, leave now!!!"

The soldiers no longer hesitated, immediately broke free from the Liao army's pursuit, and rushed frantically towards the city gate.

But just when they thought they were going to escape, the sound of thundering hooves came.

Beyond the city gate, a fully armed cavalry force appeared in full view.

This cavalry watched the disheveled Qin army, but didn't attack proactively. They simply surrounded them.

Upon seeing this, Su Pingbei's heart turned cold.

He knew he was done for today.

The cavalry parted, and a man in the armor of a Liao general rode out on horseback. He came to the city gate and looked at Su Pingbei standing inside, chuckling softly: "Are you the commander of this Qin army How capable are you"Chapter 1405: Please Cooperate, My Prince
