The next day, the gates of Dingxiang were opened, and Ni Heng led a group of soldiers out of the city in a mighty manner.

Although there were not many soldiers and horses, they were all cavalry, riding all white war horses. They were the white horse cavalry led by Zhao Yu.

Ni Heng, who had just been granted an official title, looked very proud and arrived outside the Zhao army camp under the protection of everyone.

Looking at the Zhao army that hung up the banner of no war, a look of contempt appeared on Ni Heng's face.

"Go, call out your deputy commander Murong Zhu!" Ni Heng looked very senior.

The Zhao army looked at each other, not understanding the other party's purpose of coming here, so they could only send someone to inform Murong Zhu about this.

Inside the camp, Murong Zhu was thinking about how to defeat the enemy.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the camp, and a soldier shouted, "General, the enemy is outside the camp and wants to meet you."

Murong Zhu frowned, opened the curtain and came out, and asked in a cold voice, "Who is coming?"

"It's you who's the boss!"

"It's him?"

Murong Zhu looked a little ugly.

Ni Heng has always been famous for his eloquence, and because of his master's relationship, no one wants to offend him.

If I leave the camp at this moment, I will definitely be scolded by this person.

Humph, Chu Ning really has a good trick up his sleeve, trying to force me to leave the camp and be scolded, so as to undermine the morale of our troops!

"Tell him that our army has already hung up the banner of no war, and this general does not want to talk to him!"

"Yes!" the soldier responded and immediately turned and left.

Soon, Ni Heng, who was far away from the camp, heard the answer and immediately became furious: "Murong Zhu, you are a cowardly villain!

Your Zhao army has nearly 300,000 soldiers and horses, but you dare not attack a small city like Dingxiang. You are unworthy of being the deputy commander, and you are disloyal!

Your army's commander Tuoba Yan was killed, but instead of seeking revenge for him, you swallowed your anger and chose not to fight. You wasted Tuoba Yan's promotion of you, which is unkind!

How can a disloyal and unkind person like you be qualified to command 300,000 troops?

If you don't dare to fight, then take your troops and return to the Great Zhao Dynasty with your tail between your legs!"

As soon as Ni Heng opened his mouth, he hit Murong Zhu's sore spot.

The soldiers of the Great Chu State at the scene burst into laughter and mocked Murong Zhu for being timid and cowardly.

The soldiers of the Great Zhao in the camp were extremely angry, but they dared not disobey Murong Zhu's orders, so they could only stare at Ni Heng and the soldiers of the Great Chu in the camp!

Ni Heng looked at the Zhao army who were full of anger but couldn't do anything to him, and couldn't help laughing.

"What are you looking at? You have such an incompetent commander who can only hide in the camp. What can you do to me?"

Such an arrogant attitude, a haughty tone, and a contemptuous look made the Zhao army soldiers so angry that they wanted to rush up and tear this guy's mouth apart immediately.

However, they did not dare to disobey Murong Zhu's orders and could only watch Ni humiliating them in front of the formation!

However, just when everyone thought that Ni Heng would continue to humiliate them, they suddenly heard a roar from the camp:

"Damn you bastard, how dare you insult my Great Zhao? Come and die!"

I saw a general holding a spear, riding his horse over the fence and heading straight for you.

This person came very quickly. Before the soldiers of Da Chu could react, he had already rushed in front of Ni Heng.

The Zhao army in the camp was overjoyed and shouted angrily: "Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!"

At this moment, Ni Heng seemed to be frightened and stood there motionless.

The Zhao army general had a ferocious look on his face and was extremely ecstatic, thinking that his surprise attack would definitely kill Ni Heng!

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a sound of breaking through the air was heard from the Da Chu camp.

Immediately afterwards, a spear came out with violent momentum!

"Qiang!"

The spear knocked the spear away, and the tip of the spear pierced the heart of the Zhao general.

"Humph, you dare to attack with just this little strength?"

Ran Ming, who came out of the camp, snorted coldly, and brought the man's body to the front of the formation. Under the gaze of everyone, he nailed the body to the ground with a shot.

Looking up at the horrified Zhao Jun, Ran Ming had a murderous look on his face: "Who else dares to come out?"

Zhao Jun was so frightened by this scene that his face turned pale. No one dared to go out, and no one even dared to speak.

Ni Heng laughed loudly upon seeing this: "As His Highness expected, you are only able to resort to such despicable tactics and dare not engage in direct combat with our army!

Murong Zhu, ah Murong Zhu, you are a hypocrite!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Murong Zhu, who was secretly observing in the camp, became so angry that his face changed drastically.

It was clearly that bastard Chu Ning who deliberately sent Ni Heng to the front to provoke our army, but now it turns out that I am using despicable means!

It's really the thief crying "stop thief"!

Murong Zhu, who was so angry that he clenched his hands suddenly, immediately rode his horse to the camp gate.

The other generals who received the news also arrived one after another at this moment. Seeing you standing outside the camp and insulting the deputy commander, they were all very angry.

"General Murong, I am willing to lead the army into battle!"

"This man is extremely arrogant. I must kill him myself!"

"We can't let him die so easily, he must be cut into pieces!"

"General, let me fight!"

The generals were furious, and none of them wanted to allow you to continue shouting like that.

Although there are enemy cavalry outside the city, their number is small. As long as they fight quickly and decisively, they will be able to kill Ni Heng on the spot!

But Murong Zhu suppressed his anger and held out his hand to stop the generals: "Shut up!"

"Don't you see that he is deliberately provoking us and waiting for us to send out troops? If my prediction is correct, the enemy must have an ambush!"

The generals suddenly quieted down.

Although they were angry inside, they also understood that Murong Zhu's analysis made sense.

In such a large-scale military battle, we cannot lose our minds because of anger.

But they were unwilling to just let you stand outside the camp and shout.

"General, are you going to just stand outside the camp and insult us and do nothing?" a general asked indignantly.

Murong Zhu narrowed his eyes, a hint of cruelty flashed across his face: "Hmph, don't worry, I have received news that a grain transport team has set out from the capital of Da Chu!

It just so happens that our army is short of food. We can take this opportunity to intercept this food transport team and replenish our food!

In addition, His Majesty has sent an order that I will be the commander-in-chief and have full command of this battle to kill Chu Ning to avenge General Tuoba Yan!

For this reason, Your Majesty has mobilized food and grass, and will be resisting soon!"

The generals were overjoyed upon hearing this and asked for orders one after another.

But Murong Zhu shook his head and sneered, "Don't worry, their food transport team will arrive in a few days. Our army should rest and recuperate in the next few days. Once we seize their food and grass, we will see how arrogant they are!"

"Pass on my order. No one is allowed to go into battle again. Anyone who disobeys my order will be executed!"

After saying this, Murong Zhu turned his horse around and left.

The other generals looked at each other and then dispersed.

Seeing that the other side had no intention of fighting, Ni Heng returned to the city with a look of regret.

"Your Highness, Murong Zhu is too tolerant. He dares not go into battle even when being insulted by an inferior!" Ni Heng said with regret on his face.

Chu Ning chuckled: "It doesn't matter, I have killed an enemy general, so this trip is worthwhile!"

"Next, it's the real beginning. Wait, the fun is about to begin!"
