After listening to the advice, I rebelled and became an emperor of all ages

Highland Ranch.

As thousands of horses galloped, the earth shook as if a tidal wave was overwhelming.

The war continued, the air was filled with smoke, and the entire ranch seemed to be shrouded in a thick haze. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood and scorched earth.

At this time, the Northern Barbarians, led by Huyan Zhong, launched repeated attacks on the imprisoned rebels.

Huyan Zhong was wearing heavy armor, holding a spear, with a sharp gaze, like a ferocious beast, leading the northern barbarian cavalry, rushing towards the rebel army's defense line like a tide.

Even though the rebels were fearless and brave, they could not hide their declining trend and their defense line was shrinking step by step.

Although the rebel soldiers fought desperately, their defense line was gradually torn apart by the fierce offensive of the northern barbarians. Soldiers fell one by one, and their blood dyed the ground red.

At this time, anyone could see that the northern barbarians would soon break through the last line of defense and the rebel army would undoubtedly be defeated.

The rebel generals had solemn expressions on their faces, their hearts filled with despair and unwillingness, but they still gritted their teeth and tried their best to resist the attack of the Northern Barbarians.

"Your Highness, what should we do?" A young general rushed to Lin Zhongyun, his face full of anxiety and uneasiness. There was a hint of despair in his voice, as if he was worried about the impending failure.

However, at this moment, facing the attack of thousands of troops, Lin Zhongyun looked determined, took a deep breath, and said with a sharp gaze: "We can't give up now, even if there is only a glimmer of hope."

Although his voice was weak, it revealed an unquestionable majesty.

He said this not only to his subordinates, but also to himself.

"From now on, pile all the baggage in front to form a ditch." He thought about it and decided that only this idea could delay the attack of the Northern Barbarians to the greatest extent.

Now they are surrounded. Without external help, it would be extremely difficult to break out.

Now he can only place his hope on Li Zhongwu, hoping that Li Zhongwu can bring his troops as soon as possible.

However, he also knew in his heart that hope was just hope. He could only hold on until night at best, but definitely not until tomorrow.

"Brothers, we must not let the iron hooves of the northern barbarians break through our defenses!" Lin Zhongyun's voice was firm and resolute. Now they had reached the point of a fight to the death. "We must use our courage and blood to prove to the enemy that we will never surrender easily!"

The soldiers nodded one after another. Although they were exhausted, there was still a determination in their eyes.

Although they knew in their hearts that this glimmer of hope was so slim, they could only pin their hopes on it.

This is the only way they have now, there is no other way.

In the desperate situation, anger and a determination to never surrender erupted from the bottom of everyone's heart.

The flame of revenge ignited in their hearts, as if injecting an invisible force into the upcoming battle.

……

At the same time, this whole scene was seen by Li Zhongwu who was on a high place.

"Your Highness!" Li Zhongwu was extremely anxious and pounded the grassland hard, feeling even more guilty.

He slammed his fists heavily on the grass, as if he wanted to pour out all his regret and self-blame.

His eyes were filled with resentment, and his heart was filled with worry about His Highness and guilt towards his brothers.

He hated himself for not having investigated more carefully at the beginning. He would not have known nothing about the Northern Barbarians' plan. If he had been a little bit more vigilant at the beginning, he, His Highness, would not have fallen into this state.

Then those brothers would not have sacrificed themselves to cover his breakout.

"This shouldn't have been the case!" He shouted in self-blame. There was a hint of despair and helplessness in his voice, as if he was worried about the impending failure.

His heart was filled with regret and self-blame, as if he was worried about impending failure.

However, despite his remorse, he knew that now was not the time to wallow in self-blame. Taking a deep breath, he quickly adjusted his mind and examined every corner of the battlefield, looking for a turning point that could turn the tide of the battle.

He understood that at this moment, every decision was related to the survival of countless lives, and he must take responsibility and find a glimmer of hope for the rebels.

Various tactics flashed through Li Zhongwu's mind quickly, but he quickly shook his head to deny them one by one. Just as he had worried before, if his small force forced its way in, it would have no impact on the entire battle situation at all.

Before he saw the Northern Barbarians' battle formation, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. Perhaps the Northern Barbarians did not have that many troops, and they could force their way in and bring His Highness back.

However, now that he saw the mighty Northern Barbarian Army in front of him, he felt a chill in his heart, knowing that it was almost impossible to break through. His heart was filled with despair and helplessness.

"Your Highness, you must believe that I will find a way to rescue you." Li Zhongwu's voice was low and firm, and his eyes looked particularly sharp under the night sky.

He looked around, searching for any clues that could be used. Suddenly, his eyes fell on the scattered armors of the Northern Barbarian Army on the battlefield. These armors stood out in the huge battlefield, but no one paid any attention to them.

They were all ignored by the charging Northern Barbarians and hid under the pile of corpses.

"Got it!" Li Zhongwu's heart moved, and a bold plan gradually took shape in his mind. He immediately summoned several loyal soldiers and whispered a few words to them.

"Listen, this plan is very important for us to save His Highness. You must complete this mission."

Although Li Zhongwu's voice was low, every word was full of determination. "Of course, the most important thing is that we must not be discovered by the Northern Barbarians."

Although the soldiers were nervous, they knew that this was their only hope, so they nodded one after another, expressing their willingness to carry out this dangerous mission.

Li Zhongwu personally selected ten soldiers who were agile, loyal and reliable, all of whom were elite soldiers who had undergone rigorous training.

After finishing his instructions, he took a deep look at Lin Zhongyun who was surrounded, and said in his heart: "Your Highness, please wait for a moment, I will definitely rescue you." Then he resolutely shouted: "Retreat!"

Now he could only hope that His Highness could hold out until evening. Only then would his plan work and he would have greater confidence.

……

As time passed, every minute and every second passed quietly and silently, the sun began to slowly sink towards the western horizon, and the afterglow in the sky gradually became dim.

When Li Zhongwu heard the latest news brought by the scout, his clenched fists loosened involuntarily, and the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

This made him feel unprecedented relief. He took a deep breath, adjusted his expression, and prepared to face the coming night and those unknown challenges.

For Li Zhongwu, every moment of the past few hours was an unbearable torture, but now, he clearly realized that his carefully prepared plan was about to play its due role.

Although the current situation has become very serious, fortunately, His Highness has persisted until now and has not been defeated directly. This is enough for him to have an opportunity to counterattack.

The night fell like thick ink, and the sky was dotted with sparse stars. He knew that victory tonight would be the key turning point in this war.

At this moment, he was extremely nervous, and any tiny mistake could lead to their total loss.

If it was just him who failed, it would be fine, but this failure not only meant his personal failure, but also the failure of the rebel army and the destruction of His Highness' grand cause.

He couldn't let this happen, even if it cost him his life.

The night wind was cold, blowing on his stern face. His eyes were firmly staring into the distance, so he could only succeed and must not fail.

"General, we have completed all the tasks you assigned to us." At this time, the scouts who had been sent out by him to carry out the mission had returned. They returned with a full load, having collected a large number of Northern Barbarian armor.

However, most of these armors are already tattered and covered in blood, and their defensive capabilities are much weaker than before. It seems that they can no longer provide effective protection for the soldiers.

"General, these are all we have collected. The spies from the Northern Barbarians are also keeping a close watch, so it is difficult for us to get any closer to their camp." The leading scout captain reported helplessly.

In fact, he was a little confused. In his opinion, these armors were not even as good as those they were wearing. It was not worth it for them to take such a big risk just for these few pieces of armor. It did not seem to be in line with the efficiency and value they were pursuing.

However, Li Zhongwu smiled slightly. He had expected this situation. These tattered armors were the key to creating an illusion in his plan. He turned to the scout captain and said in a firm and confident tone: "That's enough. You did a good job. Next, we will make these tattered armors a nightmare for the enemy."

"Now all of you put on these armors and wait for my final orders." Li Zhongwu said with his hands behind his back in an unquestionable tone.

Although the soldiers were doubtful, facing Li Zhongwu's firm gaze, they quickly put on the worn-out Northern Barbarian armor.

As night fell and the wind was cold, Li Zhongwu stood at the front of the queue with a determined light in his eyes, as if foreshadowing an impending storm, a storm that they had carefully planned.

After explaining everything in detail, General Li Zhongwu slowly walked back to his spacious tent.

Inside the tent, two of his most trusted confidants were waiting anxiously, their eyes filled with anticipation and eagerness.

As soon as they saw the general coming back, they immediately asked eagerly: "General, do you have any important tasks for us to complete?
No matter what kind of difficulties and obstacles we face, we will carry them out without hesitation, even if it means going through fire and water."

General Li Zhongwu responded in a calm and firm tone: "I have no doubt about your loyalty and courage."

He picked up a carefully prepared piece of parchment from the table, his expression serious and solemn, "Tonight, I need you to lead an elite force and secretly go to the vicinity of the Northern Barbarians' camp.

Your mission is to light a fire at the location clearly marked on this parchment, and there must be no mistakes in this matter."

He paused, his eyes revealing a determined cold light, "You must remember that the importance of this operation is extraordinary.

Whether we can successfully rescue our Highness from the heavy siege of the enemy army depends entirely on you."

"Arson?" The two confidants looked at each other. Although they did not fully understand the meaning behind this action, they knew clearly that this mission would definitely be related to the success or failure of the entire battle.

They took the parchment, carefully studied every location marked on it, and then answered in unison: "General, please rest assured that we will complete this task."

"very good!"

General Li Zhongwu nodded with satisfaction. His gaze was deep and far-reaching, as if he could penetrate the curtain of the tent and see the battlefield in the distance.

He knew very well that this fire, which they had started with their own hands, would be the prelude to their victory, and every move he made was a key foreshadowing carefully laid out to rescue His Highness.

He concluded, "All our hopes rest on this action of yours.

In order to ensure that you can successfully complete the mission, I have decided to give you the few northern barbarian war horses that we have in our army."

"I don't care what method you use. I only ask for one result. That is, the fire must be as loud as possible and cause chaos in the entire Northern Barbarian Camp."

After receiving the order, the two confidants turned around and left the big tent. Under the cover of night, their figures gradually disappeared into the darkness, leaving General Li Zhongwu alone in the big tent to ponder.

He slowly walked to the huge map, his fingers gently running over the locations marked in detail, and prayed silently in his heart: This night, we must plunge the Northern Barbarian Camp into unprecedented chaos so that our operations can proceed smoothly.

This battle was the most difficult one he had ever fought, because their troops were too small, and the difference between them and the Northern Barbarians' army was simply huge.

Therefore, he had to admire the perfect preparation of the rebel army. It can be said that Chagan Uli had thought of everything, from strategic deployment to material supply, all of which showed their careful planning.

I'm afraid that their whereabouts had been revealed since the first day they set foot on this grassland. From the beginning to the end, they were completely led by the northern barbarians, and every step seemed to be expected by the other side.

At this time, the greatest advantage of the Northern Barbarians as the masters of the grassland was revealed. No movement could escape the Northern Barbarians' eyes. Their understanding and control of this land was simply amazing.

However, despite all the difficulties, he still firmly believed that as long as they could seize this opportunity and make good use of every detail, they would be able to find a ray of hope in this contest of unequal strength. (End of this chapter)
