Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

The Qin army's retreat stunned the entire Chu army.

The Qin army clearly had the upper hand, so why did they suddenly retreat?

Even Guan Yun and Ran Ming were puzzled, but they did not dare to waste time and immediately rushed to the front line.

Coincidentally, they arrived at Chu Ning's location at the same time as Feng Anguo.

When they arrived at the woods and saw that Chu Ning was safe and sound, the three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The bloodstains on the road just now made them very worried, and they were afraid that Chu Ning might have an accident.

Fortunately, it didn't turn out as they expected in the end.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The three of them bowed and saluted.

Chu Ning nodded slightly: "Thank you for your hard work, the Qin army that blocked your way should have retreated, right?"

Feng Anguo smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, what is going on?"

"Also, why is Lord Zhang Xuan here too?"

As the Governor of Liangzhou, he should have returned to Liangzhou after attending the ceremony of enthroning the Crown Prince. Why is he appearing here?

Zhang Xuan laughed: "Then let me tell you the truth!"

"Your Highness has long anticipated that this battle with the Qin army will be a fierce battle, but if we can capture the leader first and take down Bai Qi, this battle will be a great victory."

"So, Your Highness used himself as bait to make the Emperor of Qin think that he could be surrounded and killed here, and even lured Bai Qi here."

"But secretly, His Highness ordered me to bring 5,000 white horse cavalrymen who were going to participate in the enthronement ceremony here."

"When the war was at its most tense, my five thousand soldiers played a crucial role."

After these words were spoken, Feng Anguo and others suddenly realized.

"I see. But I wonder how Bai Qi and the others are doing now?" This is what Feng Anguo was most concerned about.

Henry Zhang smiled and told the deal between Chu Ning and Bai Qi.

Suddenly, Feng Anguo and the other two opened their eyes as wide as bells.

After a long while, Ran Ming touched his huge bald head and said helplessly: "In that case, I'm afraid I won't be able to fight this time."

"Hard to say!"

Chu Ning said calmly: "Bai Qi is willing to withdraw his troops and even cede the city, but the Emperor of Qin may not be willing."

"So, we have to take over Yuji City immediately before the Emperor of Qin receives the news!"

"Everyone listen up, set off immediately!"

There was no time to lose. The two sides had already gathered their troops together, and the Qin army had also decided to retreat. They had no fear at all and immediately rushed to the front line.

Three days later, Chu Ning finally arrived at the important frontline city - Haoming City.

Han Xing and Su Tingmei came with all the generals to welcome the emperor.

On this day, the sky was clear and cloudless, and the north wind blew the dragon flag slowly towards Haoming City.

"See His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"No gift!"

Chu Ning looked at the crowd, who were full of enthusiasm, and laughed, "Come here, take Bai Qi and the Qin prisoners into the city."

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of Han Xing, Su Tingmei and others changed drastically. None of them could believe that Bai Qi was actually captured alive.

Amid the surprised gazes of the crowd, Bai Qi and the Qin army prisoners were brought up.

Su Tingming was filled with excitement and took the lead in shouting: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is wise and powerful!"

The Chu army immediately shouted: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is wise and brave!"

But amid the shouts of the crowd, changes occurred in the Qin army camp outside the city. The Qin army came out in full force and headed straight for Haoming City.

Han Xing's expression changed slightly: "Your Highness, could it be that the Qin army wants to take this opportunity to rescue Bai Qi?"

Bai Qi frowned and said, "Impossible! They dare not disobey my orders!"

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Be prepared for battle, I will meet them!"

Seeing such a large-scale Qin army for the first time, Chu Ning did not dare to be careless and immediately ordered his troops to form a defensive formation.

At the same time, the Chu army on the city wall also drew their bows and arrows, ready to go to war at any time.

After all, they have captured Bai Qi, and no one can guarantee that the Qin army will not resort to desperate measures.

The Chu army got ready to fight the Qin army.

But at this moment, the Qin army that was charging stopped in unison and formed several square formations outside the city.

Immediately, the Qin army recognized a road, and Sima Cuo rode out with several generals.

Soon, Sima Cuo and others arrived at the front of the battle.

Chu Ning waved his hand and said, "All the generals, please follow me!"

At the command, Ran Ming, Guan Yun, Zhao Yu, Han Xing, Su Tingmei, Zhang Xuan and others rode their horses and followed Chu Ning, leading their troops to meet the enemy.

At this moment, Chu Ning is surrounded by civil and military officials, who are his strongest team!

Chu Ning rode his horse to the front of the battle array with confidence, looked at Sima Cuo not far away, and laughed, "General Sima, we meet again."

Sima Cuo's eyes flashed with caution: "The last time we met, you were still a prince, this time you are already the crown prince of Chu!"

"I heard that you reached an agreement with our great general Bai Qi, but I wonder where General Bai Qi is now?"

He made his intention clear as soon as he opened his mouth!

It seems that this person is really anxious.

Chu Ning smiled and said, "General Sima, why are you so anxious? Before we have discussed how to withdraw our troops, I will not let you see Bai Qi."

As soon as these words came out, the general behind Sima Cuo suddenly changed his expression and roared:

"How dare you speak to General Sima like that!"

After he finished speaking, the man rode his horse towards Chu Ning.

Ran Ming smiled grimly, swung the axe in his hand, and rushed forward on his horse.

"Qiang!"

The two sides clashed with their weapons, and the Qin general was actually pushed back several steps.

Sima Cuo's expression changed slightly: "General Wei, retreat!"

The man knew he was no match for his opponent, so he rode his horse back with a gloomy face.

Ran Ming still wanted to chase after him, but Chu Ning said calmly, "No need to chase after him, business is more important."

Ran Ming looked bored, but he didn't dare to disobey Chu Ning's order, so he had to ride back.

At this time, Sima Cuo said in a deep voice: "Since you have agreed to withdraw our troops, we will naturally withdraw, but we must confirm the general's current situation!"

This is because they are worried that Bai Qi will be killed.

Chu Ning smiled and said, "Your general is still alive, but before I show you him, you must promise to leave all the baggage and food supplies behind, and let our army take over Yucheng."

This was originally a condition of the agreement with Bai Qi, so Sima Cuo naturally had no objection and said in a deep voice, "Okay!"

Chu Ning waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him brought Bai Qi, who was tied up, to the front of the battle.

This scene greatly stimulated the Qin soldiers. Many of them were furious and were ready to rush forward to rescue people.

But Bai Qi snorted coldly: "No one is allowed to make a move. Since you lose, you have to admit it!"

"Now, leave your baggage and food supplies behind and send someone to notify the Yucheng garrison to retreat with you!"

As soon as Bai Qi opened his mouth, the Qin army suddenly quieted down.

Sima Cuo was relieved when he confirmed that Bai Qi was still alive.

"General, don't worry, we will definitely follow the agreement between you and the Crown Prince of Chu!"

Sima Cuo said loudly: "However, Your Majesty will soon know about this matter. I don't know what Your Majesty will do next."

The meaning was clear, he could compromise for Bai Qi's life.

However, this is not necessarily the case for the Qin Emperor Ying Zheng.
