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

"What, Ying Zheng escaped?"

Half an hour later, Zhao Yu led the white horse cavalry back to Yucheng and reported the matter to Feng Anguo.

Feng Anguo's face turned ugly when he heard this: "If we miss such a good opportunity, it will be difficult to kill Ying Zheng again in the future."

Zhao Yu was also full of self-blame at this moment: "It's all my fault that I was too careless at the time. I thought that the Qin army's banner would definitely follow Ying Zheng."

"I didn't expect the Qin army to do the opposite. Ying Zheng is on the side with more people, and the one on the big banner is his stand-in."

If it weren't for the Qin army's banner, he wouldn't have transferred all his troops to chase the fake Ying Zheng.

But a command error is a command error, and he has no excuse.

At this moment, Zhao Yu was dejected, and his face no longer had the high spirits he had at the beginning.

I thought that with Chu Ning's plan, I could capture Ying Zheng in one fell swoop and advance into the heartland of the Qin Dynasty.

However, because of his affairs, Ying Zheng escaped and all subsequent plans could not be implemented.

Feng Anguo saw what Zhao Yu was thinking, sighed, put away the anger on his face, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice:

"General Zhao cannot be blamed for this. After all, no one dares to believe that Ying Zheng would give up the dragon banner and even give his armor and golden helmet to others."

"Don't mention that it was General Zhao who led the pursuit this time. Even if I led the army myself, I would still be fooled."

As soon as he finished speaking, several people came riding over. Everyone turned around and saw that they were Su Tingmei, Guan Yun and Ran Ming.

At this moment, Ran Ming's face was filled with ecstasy, and he laughed loudly, "Lord Feng, I have accomplished a great feat this time. I chased the enemy for more than ten miles and killed them all without leaving a single piece of armor!"

Feng Anguo did not spoil the fun and forced a smile, saying, "With a brave general like General Ran Ming, the Qin army will surely suffer heavy losses in this battle."

Guan Yun on the side was not to be outdone, and laughed loudly: "Lord Feng, the enemy troops in the south of the city have been cleared out. Although they were tenacious in this battle, they were still defeated by our army. We are currently counting the casualties."

By this time the sky had darkened and the two sides had been fighting for a day and a night.

Feng Anguo was quite satisfied with the other battlefields, and nodded, saying, "This battle will be very troublesome for you generals."

After a pause, he looked behind everyone, but did not find any trace of Chu Ning, which surprised him.

"Strange, why hasn't His Highness returned to the city yet?"

Logically speaking, the Qin army in the south of the city has been eliminated, and Chu Ning should have returned to the city.

But Guan Yun had returned, but Chu Ning was nowhere to be seen, which surprised Feng Anguo very much.

Su Tingmei's heart moved, and she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Did His Highness do something else without telling us?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a horse came galloping over.

"Your Highness, Lord Feng, your Highness has led a team of white horse cavalry to pursue the Emperor of Qin!"

Everyone's face changed slightly when they heard this.

Although the Qin army was defeated, many of them were still retreating in an orderly manner. Chu Ning only had 500 white horse cavalrymen with him. It was too dangerous to chase after them with such a small number of people.

Zhao Yu immediately got on his horse without saying anything and said in a deep voice, "Sir Feng, I will take people to meet His Highness immediately."

"I'll go too!" Ran Ming would certainly not hesitate when encountering such a thing.

Before Guan Yun could say anything, the two men had already ridden their horses and led a team of cavalry to rush out of the city.

Su Tingmei reached out to stop Guan Yun who was still trying to leave the city, and said in a deep voice: "General Guan, the city must be guarded by a general. Your Highness can have Ran Ming and Zhao Yu to support you."

Seeing Su Tingmei speak, Guan Yun had no choice but to give up.

Then, Su Tingmei turned to look at the cavalryman who came to report, frowned and asked:

"When did Your Majesty go in pursuit? Why didn't you come and report immediately?"

The cavalryman quickly explained: "At that time, the Qin army's personal guards were divided into two, and General Zhao led all the cavalry to pursue the Qin army's dragon flag. His Highness said that he was going to be in trouble, and then he led the other brothers to chase the other Qin army's personal guards."

"Your Highness didn't want you to stop him from pursuing, so he didn't send anyone to inform you, but only left me to report this after dark."

These words left Su Tingmei speechless.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not only good at scheming against others, but he is also very good at scheming against his own people.

"Now I just hope that General Zhao and others can meet His Highness as soon as possible!" Su Tingmei had no choice but to wait in the city.

Now all they can do is count the damage from this battle.

On this side, Chu Ning, who had been chasing for an hour, looked at the sky which had completely darkened and his expression looked a little grim.

When Zhao Yu led his troops to pursue the Qin army's dragon flag, he realized that something was wrong. Then, regardless of everyone's advice, he led the cavalry to chase after them.

However, there were too many Qin troops retreating along the way, and they encountered several groups of Qin troops. Although they were still defeated by them, their speed was also affected.

As a result, now that we have chased here, we have completely lost our way.

"Your Highness, let's go back first. What if General Zhao is chasing Ying Zheng?" suggested a centurion.

But Chu Ning shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Ying Zheng has Zhang Yi by his side. He is extremely talented and will never let Ying Zheng fall into danger."

Glancing at the dim sky, Chu Ning gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Keep chasing. Now that the sky is getting darker, they must think they have escaped the pursuit and their speed will slow down. Besides, they also need to light torches to move forward!"

"Pass the order down, pay attention to the torches around!"

If you want to travel at night, it is impossible without a torch. As long as you find a place with a torch, you may be able to find Ying Zheng.

The sound of horses' hooves whistled past, and under the dark night, they kept running wildly in search of the Qin emperor's trace.

After half an hour, the White Horse Cavalry galloped for who knows how many miles, and finally saw the light ahead.

"Your Highness, look, there's a fire over there!"

"dash forward!"

Chu Ning sneered and rushed forward with his cavalry.

At this moment, Ying Zheng, with a dejected look on his face, was riding his horse slowly with his remaining troops.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves behind them startled them and they all turned to look.

I saw flickering fire in the distance, illuminating a large group of snow-white war horses!

"Oh no! It's the White Horse Cavalry!"

Zhang Yi was horrified: "Your Majesty, please leave quickly. I will take some people to stop them!"

At this point, Zhang Yi no longer thought about escaping, he just wanted to protect Ying Zheng from danger.

But Ying Zheng snorted coldly: "Look at the firelight, they are only a few hundred people, and I have more than 2,000 people on my side. Am I still afraid of them?"

"Come here, form a defensive formation, and prepare your soldiers to fight the enemy!"

At the command, the Qin cavalry immediately lined up in front, and the shield bearers and infantry behind also immediately formed a formation.

Chu Ning led his men on horseback to a place not far away. Seeing the Qin army on full alert, and the torches in the distance were obviously several times more than theirs, he could not help but raise his eyebrows and said in a deep voice:

"Stop!"

The white horse cavalry stopped in unison, and the soldiers of both sides faced each other head-on!

Chu Ning rode forward and sneered, "Ying Zheng, come out, I know you are in there!"
