157 Border Town Crisis

A sword cut off several thrusting spears. Although the white horse was seriously injured, it still maintained its former glory. A powerful charge knocked several Hun infantry to the ground.

Ji Jie grabbed a spear and threw it towards the White Mountain King who was about twenty meters away.

King Baishan pulled out his scimitar and knocked the spear away. He was about to show off how powerful he was in front of his men, but before he could take a good posture, another spear was already approaching.

It was impossible to follow the same pattern, because the spear was about to pierce his body.

The King of Baishan didn't care about losing face and fell directly from his horse, barely avoiding it.

Ji Jie kicked off his legs and jumped up high, like an eagle fighting a rabbit, crossing the defense line composed of King Baishan's guards, and before they could turn around, he put the sword on his neck!

"Don't move, or I'll kill him!" Ji Jie yelled, and those Huns who subconsciously wanted to rush over had to stop, holding onto their weapons tightly and not knowing what to do.

Pulling the White Mountain King to his feet, he was frightened. It felt very bad to have a sword put on his neck. White Horse threw himself to the ground and slowly closed his eyes.

"Tell them to retreat and put down their weapons!" Ji Jie moved the long sword in his hand and cut a gash in his neck, and blood immediately flowed out.

"Okay, you all stand back and put down your weapons!" King Baishan was very cooperative.

The nearby Huns soldiers reluctantly put down their weapons and moved out of the way. Ji Jie sneered and said: "I would like to advise those who want to shoot cold arrows to give up your thoughts, otherwise your master will definitely be hit by the arrow! Baishan King, tell your people to stop, do you hear me?"

With the order from King Baishan, the Huns who were fighting with the guards stopped.

The Hun King and Rou Yue saw clearly that Ji Jie captured the Baishan King alone, and they were saved, and everyone began to cheer.

Rou Yue's eyes changed greatly when she looked at Ji Jie.

Ji Jie led King Baishan to the camp and kicked him in the crook of his leg. King Baishan knelt on the ground obediently, lowered his head and said, "King of the Huns, I am defeated!"

Rou Yue pulled out her sword and was about to behead him, but the King of the Huns stopped him and said, "Rou'er, don't make any mistakes! King Baishan, I think I treat your Baishan tribe well, why do you want to kill me?"

King Baishan sighed and said: "When people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. The reason is that simple! I lost, and I am convinced that I lost. The King of the Huns has such brave warriors. Of course I am no match. I want to kill him." Please do as you wish!"

"He is not my warrior!" Ji Jie, the leader of the Xiongnu Dynasty, bowed respectfully and said, "Warrior, can you leave King Baishan to me?"

"Of course!" Ji Jie nodded.

The King of the Huns stepped forward and made a move that surprised everyone. He helped the King of Baishan and said: "You and I are both Huns and we are brothers. Why do we kill each other? When you and I fight, it is the enemy who is happy. In this way Don’t you understand the simple truth? I won’t kill you, and that’s the end of the day. What do you think?”

"Father, how can we let him go?" Rouyue asked sharply.

The Hun King glared at her, and Ji Jie quickly pulled Rou Yue aside and whispered: "Although we have captured the Baishan King, there are still more than two thousand people on the other side. If we kill him, his men will not be crazy." Fight with us all the same! Your father used this trick well, making the people of King Baishan feel that the King of Huns was a magnanimous monarch. King Baishan would also be grateful for his kindness of not killing and retreat with his men. In a short time There will be no rebellion inside!"

Rouyue suddenly realized that she finally understood her father's good intentions.

King Baishan was shocked. He already felt that he was destined to die. Unexpectedly, the King of the Huns not only refused to hold him accountable, but also let him go.

"Really?" King Baishan looked confused.

"I, the King of the Huns, always mean what I say!" The King of the Huns raised his voice and said to the people of the Baishan tribe: "The reason why the Huns are strong and the reason why our enemies are frightened is because the Huns are united. If we Our people are fighting all day long, and foreigners will definitely take the opportunity to invade. When the time comes, what will we do to fight the enemy? I solemnly swear here today that what happened today is over. If I mention the old thing again in the future, I will be struck by lightning from the sky!"

"The King of the Huns is wise!" The people of the Baishan tribe shouted in unison, and they all knelt on the ground.

Ji Jie also looked at the bearded Hun King with admiration. Not only did he know how to judge the situation, but he was also good at winning people's hearts. In this way, even if King Baishan wanted to rebel in the future, his men would not be willing!

"My king, the guilty ministers will disband the team now!" King Baishan vowed: "And I am willing to personally accompany you back to the Shanyu King's City to show my loyalty!"

What King Baishan means is that I will personally accompany you back, and as your hostage, I will never make a comeback.

The King of the Huns waved his hands and said with a smile: "No need, I believe that King Baishan is also a man of his word, and his words always count! After this battle, both sides lost a lot of soldiers, so we should hurry up Go back and rest for a while, and distribute the pensions to the fallen soldiers!"

"The guilty minister obeys the decree!"

At this moment, a knight with a white feather on his head came on horseback. After dismounting, he knelt down in front of the King of the Huns. He held up a letter with both hands and said: "Greetings to the King of the Huns. I am the messenger of King Rongdi. My master invites you." Lead the troops to attack the border city of Yan State. After the city is broken, the property in the city will be divided equally. There are tens of thousands of stones, grain and grass hidden there!"

"What? King Rong Di wants to attack the border town of Yan State?" Ji Jie asked quickly.

The messenger nodded and said, "That's right. A few days ago, King Chi Di and King Rong Di joined forces and a total of 20,000 people surrounded the border city. However, the person guarding the city was Ji Lin, the eldest princess of the Yan Kingdom. Several attacks on the city were in vain. I have come back, so I came here to invite the King of the Huns to join us!"

Damn it, there are only 4,000 defenders in the border city, and the total number of new soldiers brought by Ji Lin is less than 5,000. Moreover, the city defense specifications and the defenders' equipment are very poor. Facing the repeated attacks of 20,000 enemies, they cannot hold on. How long.

"Princess, King of the Huns, lend me a horse!" When Ji Jie finished speaking, he had already climbed onto the horse, cupped his hands and said, "I still have something to do, so I won't bother you. See you later!"

"Don't leave, brave man. I haven't had time to thank you properly..." When the Hun King shouted these words, Ji Jie had already urged the horse to gallop towards the east with four hooves, and a white shadow came from his chest* * came out and got into Ji Jie's clothes.

The White Mountain King could see clearly that it was the Snow Toad that he had longed for day and night.

"Why did that man look like a Central Plains man just now?" the messenger said in a daze.

The King of the Huns smiled bitterly and said: "Not only is he a Central Plains man, but he is also my savior! You go back and tell King Chidi thank him for his kindness. I am not interested in the border town. Let him pay attention to himself and don't eat the meat." Finally, a few teeth fell out!”

Rou Yue looked at Ji Jie's retreating back, with complicated expressions in her beautiful eyes.
