Suo Chao exchanged the first few moves with Alangni. Strength trumps skill, and the mace held the upper hand in a power duel. His spearmanship was known for its agility. Considering the enemies still behind, Suo Chao decided to make a quick decision.

In a flash, Suo Chao unleashed the first move of his "Nine Divine Astonishing Skills": a stunning spear. The spear's swiftness was lightning, the sound of wind piercing through the air echoing. The force of the spear was unstoppable, its force heavy and powerful. Caught off guard, Ah Langni hastily raised his mace to block.

Suo Chao's spearmanship was agile and erratic. By the time the enemy general reacted, the spear had already pierced his chest.

"How could this be?"

"Who else?"

The young Xianbei general was shocked. He didn't expect that our second bravest warrior was no match for this kid.

"Men! Attack together! Don't just serve food one by one! This guy is pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger! How cruel!"

"Kill them! Let's go together and crush them into pieces!"

The Xianbei army divided its forces and surrounded them from both sides. Suo Chao and Huang Gai fought and retreated, retreating to a rocky forest. Here, the cavalry's impact was limited.

However, the enemy was still too numerous. In a blink of an eye, Suo Chao was surrounded by more than a dozen Xianbei troops. Suo Chao used the second move of the Nine Wonders of the Godly Astonishment:

"Total Annihilation!"

Suo Chao swung the Nine-Glory Thunder Spear with both hands, the sharp tip tracing circles in the air. The spear flashed in a continuous stream, swift as the wind. In the blink of an eye, the second spear technique mowed down a large number of the surrounding enemy troops.

As one wave of enemy soldiers was wiped out, another wave was about to arrive. Suo Chao charged back and forth over a dozen times. Fortunately, the terrain was not conducive to long-distance enemy charges and heavy advances. During this period, the Xianbei army could only charge a dozen or so at a time.

Suo Chao used the third move:

"A glimpse."

Suo Chao's spearmanship was as swift as the wind, as fast as lightning. Each strike was faster than the last, like a hundred spears working together as one, slashing through the enemy ranks without a single mortal left. The ground beneath his feet was already stained with blood.

Seeing his army losing, the young Xianbei general's morale dropped. He raised his sword and shouted loudly.

“Human power has its limits, and this boy is about to run out of energy!

"With so many of us, we can wear him out to death!"

"My men! Charge with me!"

Suo Chao saw this and realized that it was best to capture the leader first. He spurred his horse and headed straight for the young Xianbei general.

Suo Chao charged forward, spear in hand. The Xianbei soldiers on his left and right were felled one by one. The young Xianbei general became increasingly anxious.

"Let's shoot him to death!"

Arrows rained down like rain, and Suo Chao used another move to sweep across the enemy lines, blocking the incoming arrows. When the rain of swords had stopped, Suo Chao activated his divine movement and flashed in front of the young Xianbei general.

The enemy general's eyes were bloodshot, and he raised his sword to chop at Suo Chao. Suo Chao used the fourth move:

"Thunder!"

The spear tip flashed with purple sparks, carrying a devastating force. The young Xianbei general was no pushover.

"Flame Knife!"

The blade was flaming and making a whirring sound as it charged towards Suo Chao.

Thunder pierced the flames, the spear tip piercing the enemy general's heart. Blood gushed out as Suo Chao's spear finished the young Xianbei general off with a single blow. The Xianbei army was thrown into chaos.

"The general is dead! I don't want to die!"

"Run away!"

The remaining Xianbei soldiers were thrown into disarray and scattered. Suo Chao and Huang Gai, unwilling to let them go, pursued the fleeing Xianbei army. They even switched horses mid-flight, fearing their own mounts would not be able to sustain the heavy loads of their long-distance assault.

The two fought to keep all the enemy troops. When they could no longer see the enemy, they rode back to Zhao Village. Their clothes were already stained with blood. Suo Chao looked at the blood-soaked Huang Gai and said.

"Brother Gongfu! We've gained something from this battle!"

"Young Master's fighting power is unparalleled, I am not as good as him!"

"If you hadn't reminded me to retreat to the rocky forest, I would have died here today!"

Suo Chao checked Huang Gai's strength value, which reached 75 points, which was not low!

"Alright! Don't underestimate yourself! Your martial arts still have a lot of room for improvement."

"Practice the Yue Girl Swordsmanship diligently from now on! The principles of attack and defense, strength and weakness, movement and stillness, sequence, speed and slowness are infinitely profound. You can also integrate into the military formation."

"Okay, sir! I'll take note!"

Zhao Village.

At dusk (around 7-9 p.m.), bright moonlight streamed into the gray village. After the great battle during the day, the atmosphere was thick with a heavy sense of war, and the air was filled with the faint smell of blood.

Suo Chao found Zhao Liang, who was sitting on a rock outside the courtyard with his head drooping and a look of despair on his face. Puzzled, Suo Chao walked over and asked.

"Brother Zhao, what happened?"

Zhao Liang looked up at Suo Chao and sobbed softly.

"Not long after you left, five Xianbei soldiers sneaked into the village and took my wife away!"

"Isn't Sister Xiaomei hiding?"

"Alas, there's a Xianbei spy in our village! It was the spy who led people to take my wife away. The wives of several other families were also taken away."

We wanted to resist, but several of our fellow villagers were killed and we couldn't stop them at all.

"When the Xianbei saw their army was defeated, they took my wife and others hostage and left!"

"Which way did they go?"

"They're heading northeast!"

"Brother Zhao, don't worry! I'll go after them." After activating the Eye of Truth, Suo Chao searched the area within a hundred miles using the system map. He quickly found the whereabouts of the Xianbei soldiers.

Suo Chao ordered Huang Gai to stay behind to deal with the aftermath, while he mounted his horse and pursued the enemy. Traveling at full speed, Suo Chao quickly approached the enemy. The Xianbei soldiers, believing they had escaped, celebrated wildly.

"Mmmm, what kind of disaster did we encounter today? Even the young general is dead!"

"Who says it's not true? Over three hundred cavalrymen were slaughtered by a kid."

"Haha, we caught three bitches. Let's go and vent our anger on them together!"

"Don't come over here!"

"No, you will die!"

Xiaomei and the other two were in despair, their eyes filled with tears. Their hands and feet were tied, and they couldn't even commit suicide.

These five Xianbei bandits pounced on the plump rabbits like wolves that had been hungry for seven or eight days, tearing off their clothes piece by piece.

"Niguli, little Manni! I'll go first, you wait!"

"WC, why do you get to go first?"

"Why? Because my father is friends with Prince Lian!"

"What? You have such connections, yet you still join the army?"

"Of course I do it for the thrill! Killing people, setting fires, and robbing women—how exciting is that!"

"I just love their helpless and desperate cries!"

"You're welcome, please do as you please!"

The four men were speechless and began to fight over the remaining two women.

......

Suo Chao took out his Nine-Glory Thunder Spear. Taking advantage of their unpreparedness, he leaped behind the Xianbei army and first dispatched the two who posed the greatest threat, one small shrimp at a time. He then killed the remaining three Xianbei soldiers. Suo Chao untied the ropes that bound them.

Sister Xiaomei, with a face full of shame and anger, her clothes torn and her hair disheveled, was about to throw herself at the stone. The two sisters behind her did the same.

"Alas! Did women in ancient times still value their reputation? It's just that my body was seen, and I didn't succeed."

Suo Chao was speechless, but after thinking about it, it was normal. He quickly stopped them from committing suicide.

"Three sisters! Please think twice. Your families are still waiting for you! Don't do such a foolish thing as sending your loved ones off!"

After some persuasion, Suo Chao finally convinced the three of them and put an end to their suicide plans. Suo Chao then safely escorted them back to Zhao Village.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host! Defeat over 300 Xianbei troops! Reward: 2 years and 1 month of life!]

"Life? It's still okay!"

......

Suo Chao arranged for his fellow villagers to dispose of the bodies of the Xianbei soldiers to prevent an epidemic. To prevent retaliation from the Xianbei, Suo Chao practiced medicine while keeping tabs on the Xianbei army's movements. During this period, he engaged in over a dozen skirmishes, both large and small, and gained a reputation in the northern counties.

Huangfu Song, the governor of Yanmen, remembered the contributions of Suo Chao and Huang Gai and hosted several banquets in their honor. Huangfu Song reported to the court, praising Suo Chao and Huang Gai's bravery and wanting to retain Huang Gai as the General of the Central Guards. Suo Chao did not express his opinion, believing this was his opportunity.

Time flies. The two men stayed on the border for three full years. Over thirty battles, both large and small, were fought, and the Xianbei army no longer dared to enter and plunder. Under Suo Chao's true eyes, the Xianbei army's movements were untraceable.

Meanwhile, Suo Chao had cured thousands of patients. The people were deeply grateful for his kindness, and at their departure, the streets were deserted, bidding Suo and Chao a lasting farewell. Huang Gai did not stay, and the prefect Huangfu could only express regret.

"Little Miracle Doctor! Welcome to Yanmen County often!"

"Young General! Thank you for defeating the Xianbei army! Our lives have been getting better and better in the past two years!"

Suo Chao was very moved and bowed to everyone in turn to say goodbye.

"My fellow villagers! Please take good care of yourselves. I will be back soon!"

"Of course!"
