Chapter 1421 What else did the Jin people have?
"The raiding party hasn't fully returned yet?"
At the gate of the Dayi military camp, 30,000 Zhengtian cavalrymen stood ready in formation. Ren Yuan and Lin Chong stood guard at the camp gate, waiting for the raiding force to arrive that night.
"Junior brother, don't worry. Brother Ling Zhen has returned. According to his description, we gained the upper hand in this night raid, and the Jurchen night raid team was routed by us."
Lin Chong knew that Ren Yuan was under a lot of pressure, so he offered him words of comfort.
"Senior brother, that makes sense, but there are always unexpected things. I'm really afraid that something unexpected might happen."
For Ren Yuan, this was clearly the last battle to establish his kingdom. As long as he defeated the Jurchens, he could establish a unified dynasty and then slowly expand westward to conquer the entire territory.
"Don't worry, junior brother. With Military Advisor Li and Second Junior Brother leading the team, there will be no match for them among the Jurchens."
Lin Chong said that his junior brother was just worried and confused, without considering what kind of killers he was going to. Could an ordinary person stop them?
Ren Yuan calmed down a bit after being persuaded by Lin Chong. He suppressed his anxiety and continued to wait patiently.
After a while, the night raid infantry force that had withdrawn ahead of schedule appeared!
"Report! Brother, the night raid was a great success! We routed the Jin army and captured two Jin generals. Upon investigation, one of them is named Wanyan Zongwang, and the other is named Wanyan Zonghan! Both are members of the Wanyan clan!"
Before Lu Zhishen returned, Yuan Lang became the leader of those who had returned. He strode out to report the battle results to Ren Yuan.
"Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan? Hahaha, excellent! This is wonderful!"
Ren Yuan was overjoyed upon hearing Yuan Lang's report. He knew how important these two were to the Jin state, and he never expected that he would capture them alive! This was fantastic! With this, Wanyan Aguda had lost two more arms!
“Brother, that’s not all. This time, another person led the troops. He is also a member of the imperial family. It is said that his name is Wanyan Yinshuke. He had his arm cut off by Military Advisor Li and returned to camp seriously injured. His cavalry was also scattered.”
Yuan Lang continued his report.
"Wanyan Yinshu has lost an arm? Hahaha, Military Advisor Li is amazing!"
Ren Yuan didn't expect that it would be a double blessing. You know, Wanyan Yinshu is now one of the only two top experts in the Jin Kingdom. If he loses an arm, then the Jin Kingdom will only have Wanyan Loushi left.
"By the way, Yuan Lang, where are my second senior brother, the Grandmaster, Erlang, and the strategist? Why haven't they returned?"
Ren Yuan glanced at the returning troops and wondered why only the infantry had returned. "My second senior brother has so many cavalry, such a big guy like Lu Zhishen and Wu Song, and such a graceful Li Zhu. Where are they?"
"I am glad to inform my brother that Military Advisor Li has successfully infiltrated the Jin army camp and seems to have accomplished something great. The master and others have led all the cavalry to support him."
Yuan Lang clasped his hands in response.
"Junior brother, what did I tell you? Don't worry, you can rest assured about the abilities of these brothers. Look how good the results are now!"
After hearing this, Lin Chong smiled and said...
"Good, good, Yuan Lang, quickly take the brothers back to camp to rest. Everyone has worked hard tonight! The military law department will definitely reward you for your contributions tonight! They'll only give you more!"
Ren Yuan gestured for Yuan Lang and the others to rest first, while he would wait for Lu Junyi and the others to return.
"Senior brother, why don't you take 20,000 men and go to meet our second senior brother?"
After waiting a while, Ren Yuan suddenly spoke to Lin Chong.
"Junior brother, are you worried?"
Lin Chong straightened the steel spear in his hand, ready to strike.
“Military Advisor Li went into the enemy camp alone, and Second Brother led all the cavalry to provide support. I think this matter is not small. It is close to the Jin army camp, and I am afraid that they will be in danger.”
Ren Yuan said he was still somewhat worried.
"Junior brother, would you like to come along?"
Lin Chong thought for a moment, and since his junior brother was worried, he decided to go along.
"Well... I'm afraid Lao Xiao and the others will nag me."
Ren Yuan said that he really wanted to go, but unfortunately the strategists did not agree with him going to the night battle.
"So, even my junior brother has moments of fear."
Lin Chong smiled, then waved the steel spear in his hand, signaling the Zhengtian Cavalry to get ready!
"Sky Chariots, prepare!"
"promise!"
The 20,000 Sky Chariots responded almost simultaneously, and then prepared to follow Lin Chong and charge out!
But just then, they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching from afar!
"alert!"
Unsure whether they were friend or foe, Lin Chong immediately signaled for the entire army to be on alert.
All the Sky Riders took up their weapons, and the archers drew their bows and arrows, ready to attack at any moment.
"and many more!"
Ren Yuan waved his hand, signaling the entire army not to act rashly. He listened carefully to the sound of horses' hooves, and after a moment, he felt relieved.
"It's not the Jin army, it's our own cavalry."
Indeed, in the dark battlefield, the figures of the Dayi cavalry gradually appeared. Although they looked tired, everyone was very energetic.
The three leading men were Lu Junyi, Lu Zhishen, and Wu Song.
"Second Senior Brother! Master! Erlang! Hahaha! That's great!"
When Ren Yuan saw the three of them, he was very excited and immediately rode forward to join them.
"Brother (Junior Brother)."
The three of them were equally excited, and when they met Ren Yuan, they couldn't hide their excitement.
"Brother, you'll never guess what we did tonight!"
Wu Song was the first to speak.
Is this a big surprise for me?
Ren Yuan patted Wu Song on the shoulder.
"Erlang, when did you start keeping people in suspense?"
"Hehe, brother, tonight's results were indeed very good. Let me put it this way, all of the Jin Kingdom's high-end combat forces are gone."
"They're all gone?"
"Yes, brother, it's all thanks to Military Advisor Li."
Lu Zhishen continued:
"Wanyan Yinshuke had his arm cut off by Military Advisor Li, and then he was stabbed again in the camp; Wanyan Aguda was killed by Military Advisor Li; Wanyan Loushi was seriously injured by Military Advisor Li, and then killed by the wealthy man."
"What?"
Even though Ren Yuan was a man who had seen a lot, he was still stunned when he heard about Lu Zhishen.
Wanyan Yinshu was stabbed and lost an arm, and Wanyan Loushi was seriously injured and beheaded, but who was that name in the middle just now? Wanyan Aguda? The Emperor of Jin?
“Junior brother, let Strategist Li speak for himself. He is the greatest contributor this time.”
Lu Junyi smiled and gestured for the soldiers behind him to escort Li Zhu up.
"Military Advisor Li, what are you doing...?"
Ren Yuan was startled to see that Li Zhu's hair had turned several strands white and his face looked much older.
"Your Highness, I have fulfilled my mission and retrieved Wanyan Aguda's head."
Li Zhu was indeed quite weak, but he still bowed to Ren Yuan.
“Junior brother, Wanyan Aguda’s head is right here.”
Lu Junyi held up a bag on the side.
“Military Advisor Li risked his life to bring it out of the Jin army.”
"Second Senior Brother, what about Wanyan Loushi?"
"Oh, his head is here."
Lu Junyi lifted another human head from under the warhorse's neck, then spoke as if it were a trivial matter:
"Military Advisor Li fought with all his might, severely wounding him. I chased after him, found him among the Jin army, and killed him with a single shot. Junior brother, the Jin army is finished this time!"
"Brother, you don't know, the master, all by himself and on horseback, charged into tens of thousands of Jin soldiers, took Wanyan Loushi's head, and escaped unscathed. We were stunned just now!"
Wu Song looked at him with admiration and added to the story. Although his martial arts skills were also among the best in the world, Wu Song admitted that it would be difficult for him to single-handedly charge into tens of thousands of enemy troops and take the head of a general.
"Yeah!"
Ren Yuan's face showed excitement. He had originally prepared for a protracted battle, but now it seemed that this battle should be over soon!
The emperor and the two war gods are gone. Jurchens, what do you have left?
