Chapter 38: Han River Diving
The moment Zhu Cixuan bent his bow.

Having suffered a loss, Mang Bai hid among the personal guards, and two rows of armored warriors blocked his way like a city wall.

Just as Mang Bai expected.

Zhu Cixuan is not a god yet.

Arrows flew across the battlefield like meteors.

Shot the personal guard in front of Mang Bai.

Although the iron armor blocked the heavy arrows, the guard still groaned and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Mang Bai lifted up the bent guard and blocked it again.

Through the gap, I saw Zhu Cixuan turning around and moving away under the pressure of the Hongsha soldiers.

Feel a little calmer.

At this moment, a shout completely disrupted Mang Bai's next preparation.

"Mang Bai is dead!"

"Mang Bai is dead!"

"Mang Bai was shot to death by the Crown Prince of Ming!"

Upon hearing the sound, Hongsha’s central army camp was thrown into chaos.

The guards, who were almost exhausted, got a little respite.

The Ming army and Hongsha soldiers all looked towards the high platform in the central camp.

I only saw a group of people and couldn't tell whether the shouting was real or not.

But someone pointed at the golden wheel banner next to the central camp, and the flag that was supposed to be upright shook and fell down.

The Hongsha soldiers, who were afraid of everything, immediately collapsed.

Some soldiers who were originally going to surround and kill the Crown Prince of Ming were taken away by others.

They had no choice but to fight on their own and flee everywhere.

"The king is dead."

"The King of Toungoo was killed by the Prince of Ming. Run away!"

Mang Bai ignored Zhu Cixuan's threat, pushed aside his physical shield, and shouted:

"What's going on? The King is still here!"

"Don't fall for Zhu Cixuan's evil plan!"

A confidant with wounds on his face cried out:
"Your Majesty, the Daiqing envoy said that General Ma launched an attack for no apparent reason, killing many of our men and then severing your banner."

Mang Bai felt a pain at the back of his head, and his consciousness became clearer than ever before.

He suddenly understood everything.

Same as Ava City.

It was Zhu Cixuan's plan within the plan.

All the Qing envoys were Zhu Cixuan's accomplices.

No wonder the plan went so smoothly, and Zhu Cixuan dared to lead more than 10,000 soldiers and horses deep into the Xitang River Valley.

No wonder Tonggu's Anlai and the ambush troops in the tunnel gave the Ming army in the city the opportunity to break out.

It was not him who lured Zhu Cixuan here, but Zhu Cixuan who lured him here.

How dare Zhu Cixuan?
How can he be sure he can reach me?

If he made the slightest mistake, he would die here.

The confidant interrupted Mangbai's wandering thoughts and forcibly pulled him back to where the horses were tied.

"Your Majesty, the central army is in chaos and can't stop the Ming army. The Ming crown prince might charge in at any time."

"The army is in the front camp fighting with the Ming army. Bai Wenxuan has also arrived. We will go to the left camp and take the remaining troops to Pegu."

"We still have 20,000 troops from Bei Daiyun there. If we gather the defeated soldiers, we can negotiate with the Crown Prince of Ming with tens of thousands of troops."

Mang Bai woke up in time: "Yes, I still have a chance."

"I still have Pegu Daguang Maduba, and I can still control a corner of the country."

"At worst, I'll just go to the Malacca Peninsula."

In the chaos, Mang Bai led a dozen personal guards to seize the horses.

He mounted his horse and headed straight for the left camp.

Having lost sight of Mang Bai, Zhu Cixuan searched everywhere. When he saw a dozen fleeing riders, he shot an arrow that landed far behind them.

Zhu Cixuan called the Imperial Guards and was about to give chase.

In a flash, a rider suddenly emerged from the chaotic army and shot towards the fleeing Mang Bai like an arrow.

As flexible as a monkey.

Really flexible.

He clamped his legs around the horse's belly and leaned sideways on the horse's back, avoiding the arrows of the Hongsha soldiers who were covering Mang Bai on both sides.

Just before the horse under his crotch fell to the ground after being hit by an arrow, he swung his body slightly and jumped onto a Hongsha cavalryman.

He drew the long sword from his waist, slashed it across the cavalryman's neck, and then stabbed the horse's butt, speeding up to catch up with Mang Bai.

He raised his arms high and swung his sword with all his might, killing several of Mang Bai's personal guards in a row.

Finally, in front of Mang Bai's terrified eyes, the long sword swept across, and the blade, as if carrying a thousand pounds of force, knocked him off his horse.

It didn't take long.

Ma Bao presented Mang Bai's head, which had died with his eyes open, to Zhu Cixuan:
"Your Highness, I have fulfilled your mission."

Zhu Cixuan was speechless. I still want to be Arthas.

As a result, Lu Bu was possessed twice but failed to kill his father.

"My father said that in the past in western Guangxi, Duke Huai was there to protect the emperor and intimidate the scoundrels in the court and the country. Today, I have just witnessed Ma Sanbao's bravery."

"Duke Huai, the fighting continues. Deng Kai and Wang Qilong are still surrounded in the front camp. We must go and rescue them quickly."

Ma Bao bowed and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Gongchang has already arrived at the Hongsha Right Camp. We should first join him and then rescue the soldiers in the front camp."

Zhu Cixuan didn't say much either.

There were only a few hundred of them left, and everyone was injured.

It would not be very useful to go directly to the Hongsha front camp where tens of thousands of troops were fighting.

Bai Wenxuan arrived at the right time.

Gather the remaining troops and make arrangements for the wounded.

As soon as Zhu Cixuan walked out of the central military camp, he ran into Bai Wenxuan.

Then I realized that he divided the troops into three parts.

He led a thousand soldiers and horses and crossed the river twenty miles upstream, avoiding the flood and sand.

When we arrived at the front camp, we found that the battle here was almost over.

It’s not that Deng Kai and Wang Qilong were both killed in the battle.

Rather, it was the fire that forced the Hongsha soldiers to evacuate.

Let’s talk about Hongsha Camp.

First there was a layer of chevaux-de-frise, then a deep pit, then a wooden wall of fences, and then another wooden wall.

The Hongsha front army camp was sandwiched between two wooden walls. There were all kinds of flammable materials. In the dry winter, without any firefighting, the camp immediately became a sea of ​​fire no less than that in the ancient city.

Of course, Zhu Cixuan’s “contribution” is indispensable.

[Your fate is to offend fire. A fire broke out in the camp where you are.]

【Fire in destiny】

【Fire in destiny】

After searching for a while, Deng Kai met up with Zhu Cixuan with hundreds of remaining soldiers covered in blood and gray.

Zhu Cixuan saw the disheveled Deng Kai supporting Wang Qilong who was shot by an arrow, and even Pan Huang's left arm was still bleeding.

I glanced at the prompts that kept popping up on the system.

Obviously, this fire will not end by burning a city or a camp.

Zhu Cixuan waved his hand:
"The Hongsha army is finished. Take the wounded, gather the nearby bamboo rafts, and cross the river to avoid the fire."

……

Three days later, the fire in Toungoo was finally extinguished.

Only ashes remained of the Hongsha tribe's revival site.

Only five or six crows were jumping around on the ruins and scorched earth, pecking at the broken limbs.

After showing Mang Bai's head, the remaining Hongsha army, which had just suffered a major defeat, surrendered without any resistance.

Zhu Cixuan brought Pan Huang with him and asked the new Toungoo Houlanai to use monks to appease the defeated soldiers.

The system finally popped up a settlement prompt.

[You led 10,000 soldiers to capture Yangmiding County.]

[Burning the city, you are destined to offend fire, and you are disrupting the Hongsha army's deployment.]

Bai Wenxuan coordinated with Ma Bao, and you defeated Hongsha's army of 100,000. You also pacified Toungoo County.

Li Dingguo pacified the northwestern counties of Hongsha.

[You vassalize the Kingdom of Toungoo and expand its territory, and you gain 400 Mandate points.]

The command of military force has increased.

"Even if I slaughter 100,000 pigs and feed hundreds of thousands of people, I can still make more than 400 yuan."

"Hongsha people are weak, you are so stingy to give me such a small amount of destiny value."

Zhu Cixuan was speechless.

Even though I was pissed off by the system so many times, I quickly calmed down.

“First thing in the morning.”

The light is dazzling.

Soon a young man emerged with his head lowered and his face covered with a straw hat.

A young boy was pushing a cart selling groceries when he was grabbed and kicked by a soldier.

Zhu Cixuan looked at the screen on the system and gradually felt something was wrong.

as predicted.

In the blink of an eye, the boy turned into a man in a suit with a fierce look.
