Chapter 114 I send the prince to the battle array, and let General Huangshi go out
Ying Luo looked at Liang Qiyuan with a smile on his face: "Master Wuliang, if you are free, you can come to my Prince Gu's mansion and have a visit. My father has always respected you."

Liang Qiyuan narrowed his eyes slowly, and a faint aura of energy surged through his body.

As long as this master entered the army formation and was a hundred feet away from the commander of the Rolling Cloud Cavalry, no one could stop him.

Whether entering the battle and killing the commander of the Rolling Cloud Cavalry or taking the commander of the Rolling Cloud Cavalry hostage, Toyota County can be saved.

Unfortunately, the plan that was about to be completed was discovered by Ying Luo.

Ying Luo had seen him before.

The cavalry on both sides of the carriage galloped, with swords and spears pointed at the frame.

The army formation in front gathered its fighting spirit, the strength of thousands of soldiers became one, and the shadows of tigers and wolves gathered to confront the master.

Behind thousands of soldiers, Ying Luo wanted to roar to the sky.

After leaving Yuntaiyuan, he knew that there was nothing he could do in Toyota County.

But he didn't give up.

He rushed to the Zhenbei Army camp overnight, used himself as a hostage, and led the Zhenbei Army to kill the Yellow Lion and the Blue Wolf.

Yang Dingyuan took his handwritten letter and the seal of the Prince Gu's Palace and traveled 600 miles at night to Gubei City to meet Xiao Renguang, the governor of the northern border.

The final result was that Xiao Renguang sent the Rolling Cloud Cavalry to Toyota County.

Now, as long as Xiao Tonglin returns to the northern border, Xiao Renguang will directly declare his submission to the Qin Dynasty.

As long as Xiao Tonglin returned to the camp safely, he and Yang Dingyuan would leave. If anything happened in Toyota County later, it would be the garrison commander and the prince's venting of anger, and it had nothing to do with him.

Princess Fengming is courageous and resourceful, so how is Ying Luo any worse than her?
He didn't lose this game at all.

Even though Princess Fengming had the help of a master, Ying Luo still managed to make a comeback and win!

In the carriage, Zhang Yuan reached out and grabbed Xiao Tonglin's clothes, stepped out of the carriage, and unsheathed the long sword in his right hand.

The blade pressed against Xiao Tonglin's neck, and Zhang Yuan looked forward.

"Where is General Huang Shi of the Great Qin Crimson Scale Army?"

Zhang Yuan's blade was sharp as it pressed against Xiao Tonglin's neck, leaving traces of blood.

Xiao Tonglin gritted his teeth and said nothing.

There was surprise in Ying Luo's eyes.

He has met Zhang Yuan.

It’s in Yuntaiyuan.

If it weren't for Zhang Yuan, and the powerful men of the Red Scale Army that Zhang Yuan brought with him, Princess Fengming would have fallen into his hands.

He didn't expect to see Zhang Yuan here at this time.

Just an insignificant person.

Be it a commoner or a humble military officer, he, the prince, never took them seriously.

Everything Ying Luo did often involved hundreds of thousands of soldiers and millions of civilians.

A mere brave man has no influence on major events.

"If you dare to hurt my young general in the slightest—"

Before the general could finish his words, Zhang Yuan slashed the long knife in his hand, and with a "swish" sound, a long scar was left between Xiao Tonglin's neck and chest, and blood instantly soaked his clothes.

The general who was shouting paused.

Ying Luo frowned slightly.

Zhang Yuan's cruelty was beyond his imagination.

Zhang Yuan retracted the blade and pressed it against Xiao Tonglin's neck again, his eyes fixed on the front.

"Where is General Huang Shi of the Great Qin?"

His blade was slowly pressing down.

On Xiao Tonglin's neck, blood flowed along the blade and blood beads rolled down.

Xiao Tonglin didn't even dare to breathe hard.

He was afraid that the blood vessels in his throat would be torn open by the blade in Zhang Yuan's hand.

The general in front of the army twitched his face, but did not dare to say a word.

Not only is his own young general on the verge of life and death, but there is also a martial arts master ahead.

They are not qualified and dare not make any decisions.

"Master, please retreat a thousand feet. We will escort the Yellow Lion out of the battle."

A voice was heard among the army.

The commander of the Rolling Cloud Cavalry was Captain Qian Lichang of the Cloud Cavalry.

Grandmaster retreats?
If Liang Qiyuan retreated, exchanged Huang Shi in front of the formation, and then the Rolling Cloud Cavalry attacked directly, Huang Shi would still die in front of the formation.

The Qin Dynasty has already planned for the Grandmaster to sacrifice his skin and enter the camp, so how could the Rolling Cloud Cavalry still abide by any rules?
When two armies clash, they will use every possible means. If they really believe that the other side will abide by the rules they casually set, they will die without knowing how they died.

As for what Ying Luo said about the Zhenbei Army being willing to surrender, that had nothing to do with the Chilin Army, Toyota County, or Princess Fengming.

Killing Huang Shi and breaking into Toyota County did not affect the surrender of the Zhenbei Army at all.

"No need to send General Huangshi out into battle." Zhang Yuan shouted loudly, grabbed Xiao Tonglin's shoulder with his left hand, pressed his neck with a long sword in his right hand, stepped off the carriage, and strode forward while dragging Xiao Tonglin.

"I will send the prince to the battle line and let General Huangshi go out in his place."

Send the prince into battle and replace the yellow lion with the other one!
This time, Ying Luo looked at Zhang Yuan again, whose figure was half hidden behind Xiao Tonglin.

Even though it was still just the courage of a common man, when Ying Luo looked at Zhang Yuan again, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Sending the prince into battle and replacing the yellow lion means that Zhang Yuan will die.

Once the yellow lion goes into battle, Zhang Yuan’s chance of survival will be cut off.

Unless he is a master, it is impossible for him to break out of the crowd of thousands of soldiers.

There was silence in the army formation ahead.

Zhang Yuan pressed Xiao Tonglin forward with the blade.

"Zhang Yuan."

From behind, Liang Qiyuan called out.

Zhang Yuan paused for a moment, then continued forward.

Liang Qiyuan sighed softly and slowly clenched his fist.

No matter what harsh words you say or what you confess, it is meaningless.

Between two armies, it’s nothing more than life or death.

All he could do was to kill more Zhenbei soldiers to avenge Zhang Yuan.

Another thing is to keep these war cavalry here for a longer time to buy more time for Toyota County to strengthen its defense.

Although the Grandmaster is powerful, he is not as omnipotent as imagined before the army.

It's a pity for Zhang Yuan, a descendant of the Shanyue Sect who is extremely talented in martial arts, has great potential, and even has extraordinary talent in leadership.

"Your name is Zhang Yuan?"

When Zhang Yuan pressed Xiao Tonglin with his blade to the front of the army, Ying Luo spoke loudly.

"I remember you."

Regardless of his cultivation level or combat power, or his stance, Zhang Yuan's generosity in joining the battle was something Ying Luo would remember.

For a low-ranking military general or warrior, it would be a lifetime honor to have a prince of a royal palace say this.

Zhang Yuan kept walking and pushed Xiao Tonglin forward.

The army formation in front was slightly shaken, making way for a small path.

Zhang Yuan squeezed into the military formation, and the military formation closed instantly.

"Let's go." Ying Luo whispered softly, turned around and left on his warhorse.

There's no need for him to stay here.

What happened next had nothing to do with him.

Yang Dingyuan nodded, looked at Zhang Yuan again, followed closely behind Ying Luo, and left from the side of the army formation.

Zhang Yuan's blade remained motionless as he pushed Xiao Tonglin through layers of military formations until he stopped in front of the chariot pulled by four war horses.

On the chariot stood five armored generals. The first one was a big man with an iron crown, a short beard, and wearing mountain-shaped armor. He stared at Zhang Yuan like an eagle stalking a rabbit.

All around, teams of war cavalry were stampeding their hooves, and the cavalrymen at the controls held their swords and spears low, ready to charge forward at any time.

Zhang Yuan ignored these people and looked at the yellow lion in front of the frame, whose body was exposed and locked by an iron chain, with one arm broken and hanging down.

There were sword and gun wounds and arrow wounds on the yellow lion's chest and abdomen. A cut mark ran from the forehead to the jaw and connected to the arm. One of its eyes was cracked.

"Zhang Yuan..."

Seeing Zhang Yuan, Huang Shi's voice became hoarse and he struggled hard, causing the iron chains to rattle.

"What are you doing here?"

"I was covering Qinglang and the others' retreat, and I never thought about returning alive."

He growled softly, a hint of red appeared on his pale face, and excitement was revealed in the yellow lion's only remaining eyes.

"Go back, go back—"

Zhang Yuan looked at the yellow lion, then slowly raised his head, looked at the generals on the chariot, and took a deep breath.

"Substitute!"

As he pressed down with the blade, the blood on Xiao Tonglin's neck rolled down the blade.

The vanguard general on the chariot frowned but said nothing.

Zhang Yuan pulled back his long sword and slashed Xiao Tonglin's thigh, causing blood to splatter.

Xiao Tonglin groaned in pain, his legs went limp, and he knelt on one knee.

Zhang Yuan held the blade horizontally, pressed it against his neck, and raised his head.

"Change people—"
