Chapter 378 The debt of favor is the hardest to repay!
"I didn't kill the Queen Mother!"
Fan Xian's expression was complicated, and he no longer had the confidence to respond.
"Even if you didn't kill the Queen Mother." The eldest prince approached step by step, "Do you really dare to say that you don't have such thoughts? If you answer that I don't, then please explain your actions when you appeared in front of the palace that night!"
Fan Xian couldn't answer because what Li Chengzong said was true.
Is it right to avenge your mother?
Of course it is right.
But Fan Xian's every move also brought great harm to the country called "Nanqing", consuming countless resources and strength.
Due to the terrain, the mixed cavalry of about 2,000 people was just a test, the vanguard, and the subsequent forces were approaching and rotating.
The real battle has not yet begun.
It usually takes a long time for the direction of a war to be seen with the naked eye.
"You can't answer?"
Li Chengzong pointed at the scene in the field and said, "You were an envoy to Northern Qi before and made contributions to the country, but today is the first time you actually fought with Northern Qi, right?"
"Have you ever calculated how many Qing people have died at your hands directly or indirectly? Even if all the Northern Qi soldiers here are dead, can they catch up?"
"Is this your attitude towards Qing now?" Fan Xian said to Li Chengzong worriedly. The two of them had officially fallen out, and the friendship they had in the past had disappeared without a trace today. "You know the purpose of my trip and the effect it can have. This is a respite for Qing, and it is also the best way to bring stability to the people of all countries! If you still refuse to give way, it only proves that you are no longer a person of Qing."
"Qing Kingdom? Haha, are you talking about the Qing Kingdom that is now headed by the Second Brother?"
"Concubine Yi and the Queen are still in her hands!"
"He and Cheng Qian have opposite personalities, but their natures are the same. If I were such a person from Qing Country, I would not have been one long ago!"
"You should think about how to explain to Chengping. He is still young, but Cheng Qian is the one who trusts you the most. How is he now?"
The atmosphere in the field right now is very subtle. The leaders of the two opposing sides are actually a pair of half-brothers. I don't know what the deep meaning of Li Ang's arrangement is.
But the soldiers on both sides attacking each other don't care about that.
Fan Xian led the Black Cavalry of Qing Kingdom and the Cavalry of Dongyi City.
Except for the one hundred or so personal guards who served as grassroots officers, all those led by Li Chengzong were people from Northern Qi!
And how much did the people of Northern Qi hate the people of Qing?
This can be seen from the fact that they suffered more damage than the enemy, but they fought to the death.
"Cheng Qian is now in Dongyi City. He tried to commit suicide, but I stopped him."
Facing Li Chengzong approaching with a gun, Fan Xian gradually turned his horse to meet him.
The two of them fought with real swords and guns!
Under normal circumstances, Fan Xian's ninth-rank strength would be enough to defeat the seventh-rank Li Chengzong in two rounds. But now that he was missing an arm, even his skills were greatly reduced. If he hadn't started practicing the "Four-Guo Swordsmanship" mental method, he wouldn't even dare to use his domineering true energy easily.
In addition, spearmanship is a battlefield weapon, and he is not as proficient as Li Chengzong.
Only then can the two of them fight back and forth!
However, the enemy had roughly figured out his marching route and strength. Although it could ease the pressure on the border troops of Qing State and attract part of the strength of Northern Qi State, defeat was inevitable sooner or later.
Just as he is gradually losing to Li Chengzong now.
"Then you should really let Cheng Qian commit suicide successfully, why stop him!"
Li Chengzong's spear skills were very powerful, unlike Fan Xian's cautiousness, and he integrated his sword skills into his spear skills. With the burst of true energy, he hit Fan Xian's waist with a powerful spear, forcing him and his horse to retreat two steps, and also knocked the spear out of Fan Xian's hand. He was cautious in his heart, knowing that Fan Xian's real strength was those endless tricks, not his spear skills.
Taking advantage of Fan Xian's weak stance, he quickly spurred on his horse and chased after him!
"Do you really think so?"
Fan Xian smiled bitterly: "Cheng Qian looks a lot like my father. I killed my father, but I didn't want Cheng Qian to die in front of me."
He drew out the soft sword from his waist, and with the infusion of true Qi, the sword tip became straight. He planned to use the true Qi to burst out his ninth-grade strength for a short period of time to defeat Li Chengzong first!
He didn't know what Li An was going to do to him if he was captured. Thinking about his broken arm, Li An's move was too dark and too heavy.
Fan Xian shook his head violently, and three steel needles hidden in his hair jumped out and stabbed towards Li Chengzong's face!
Following closely, Fan Xian thrust his sword straight forward!
"Piercing the sky and the earth!"
"Well done!"
Li Chengzong raised his spear and swung it around, knocking three steel needles away. He then gathered his remaining strength to meet Fan Xian's sword!
But is it so easy to stop the ninth level of cultivation?
Fan Xian jumped on his horse, and the long sword in his hand mixed with true energy and kinetic energy, splitting the spear in Li Chengzong's hand in two, and finally stabbed Li Chengzong's shoulder. At the last moment, Li Chengzong only had time to lean his body, but could not completely avoid the attack.
The true energy surged into the body and then exploded.
Li Chengzong felt as if his shoulders were being scraped by countless knives, the pain was unbearable.
He lay down on the horse's rump.
He loosened his hands, threw away the broken gun, and took out another thing from his clothes. It was this thing that made Fan Xian open his eyes wide!
That's a pistol!
The hammer hit the machine gun, sparks flew out, and a bullet exploded in the air with a loud bang. The bullet also hit Fan Xian's chest and then fell to the ground.
Has Fan Xian become indestructible?
No. He was wearing a 'bulletproof vest'!
This is the way to survive in Dongyi City!
Even so, Fan Xian spat out a mouthful of thick blood. The huge pressure in his chest made his eyes turn black in an instant, and his legs went soft and he fell off the horse.
The previous forceful burst of true energy had caused him to suffer even more injuries, and he looked extremely uncomfortable.
Lost!
Who would have thought that he would be defeated by a pistol?
Also, where did Li Chengzong get the pistol? Did Li An give it to him as well?
Li Chengzong dismounted, picked up an ownerless spear on the ground, and slowly walked towards Fan Xian.
The Black Cavalry on the side wanted to rescue him, but they were held back by the chaotic army in front of them and could not move forward. They could only watch Fan Xian dying.
The tip of the spear stopped at Fan Xian's neck, and Li Chengzong shouted: "The enemy general has been captured! The others must surrender and will not be killed!"
"Give up, it's useless!"
Fan Xian's weak voice was heard. As expected, no one, whether from Dongyi City or the Black Cavalry, stopped fighting.
It is understandable that the people of Dongyi City did not care about Fan Xian's comfort.
But did the Black Knights even ignore their leader?
Li Chengzong didn't know that the Black Cavalry would only carry out the initial order. If the leader died, the deputy leader would take over. If the deputy leader died, the junior officer would take over again, and this would continue until the last person completed the established order.
Even Fan Xian is no exception!
This is also the reason why the Black Knights can become the strongest force in Qing Kingdom and the most feared existence.
"I'll spare your life, and then you can order a retreat to Dongyi City in the name of the leader!" Li Chengzong said coldly as he looked at Fan Xian lying on the ground, unable to even get up.
"In this way, Ye Qingmei's friendship and the favor of the princess have been repaid!"
