After receiving the order, the guard turned and left. Another guard asked:

"Marshal, aren't we going to see His Royal Highness Prince Feng now?"

"First, we have to stop that old dog Yelu Dahe from making a last-ditch counterattack. Second, we have to be careful not to be mistaken for a Shiwei by the Fengtian Army and shot to death here. I've heard that the Fengtian Army's firearms are terrifyingly powerful."

The old general held up his spear and patted the head of the warhorse under his crotch: "Has the King of Feng met you, boy?"

The guard nodded: "Yes."

"Go to the Fengtian Army right now and tell Prince Feng about the situation here."

"Everyone else." The old general turned to look at the guards behind him, "Follow me, it's time to settle this with Yelu Dahe!"

"Here!"

Everyone responded and took off their tattered animal skin clothes, revealing the fine iron armor underneath, and then picked up the helmets from the side of the horse's back and put them on.

Hundreds of heavy cavalry followed the old general, braving the rain of arrows from both sides, and charged towards the Khitan army that was in chaos.

The Khitan soldiers in the front row could only hear the sound of horses' hooves, and then there were sharp weapons whistling towards them, and several heads were thrown high into the air.

Without any obstruction, the Khitan army, which had suffered repeated defeats, collapsed at the first blow.

It was not until they reached the central army that the only remaining Pi Shi army came to stop them, and only then did they encounter decent resistance.

The old general left most of his personal guards here to deal with the Pi Shi army, and he personally led more than ten personal guards to where Yelu Daha was.

Although he is only slightly younger than Yelu Daha, the old general's martial arts and energy are no less than when he was young, and the spear in his hand is wielded with great force.

Yelu Dahe's personal guards were not around, so there was no way ordinary Mohe cavalry could stop them. More than ten of them rushed to Yelu Dahe's front twenty steps in one breath!

As for Yelu Dahe himself, having lost his last chance to fight, he now sat blankly on his horse, as if his soul had left his body, with no perception of the outside world.

Fortunately, Khalhan personally led his men to block the way, so the old general did not kill them directly.

After several rounds of fighting with swords and spears, Halhan became more and more shocked. He felt that the opponent's spear skills were exquisite and methodical, and he was completely different from the barbarians who relied solely on brute force.

He couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?!"

Yelu Dahe behind him also came to his senses and shouted sternly: "Qi Yankang, how will you benefit the Shiwei people by doing this?!"

"Don't you understand? With Fengguo's fighting power, if the Khitan are destroyed by them, no one outside the Great Wall will be able to stop him. Sooner or later, he will completely wipe out your tribe one by one!"

"Hmph!" The old general blocked Khalkha's long sword. "Yelü Dahe, are you so old and deaf and blind that you really can't recognize who I am?"

Hearing the other party speaking fluent Xia language, Yelu Dahe was immediately shocked: "Are you from Qing?!"

"I'm not from Qing!" The old general sneered and looked at Halehan in front of him. "Halehan, if he doesn't recognize me, don't you recognize me either? You and I are old friends!"

Upon hearing this, Halehan stared at the old general's face. After thinking for a moment, a name suddenly popped up in his mind:

He couldn't help but exclaim, "You...you are the commander-in-chief of the Huan Guo army, Yang Zhongsi!"

"Hahaha! It's my father!" The old general laughed heartily.

When Yang Zhongsi led the Huan Guo army to fight outside the Great Wall, he fought many battles with the Khitan.

Although Yelu Dahe had been staying in Shangjing and had not fought with Yang Zhongsi, he had also heard of the name of this general of the former Central Plains dynasty.

And Halehan had fought several battles with Yang Zhongsi, but they had never met face to face.

"Yang Zhongsi!" Yelu Dahe's eyes seemed to be blazing with fire. "You are also a famous general, yet you willingly infiltrated the Shiwei and did such despicable things as sowing discord among them!"

He knew that Yang Zhongsi was trapped in Goryeo last year and was rescued by troops sent by King Li Che, but since then, the former general has never shown up again.

It was thought that Li Che secretly eliminated him in order to seize the Huan Guo army.

But I didn't expect that this person would go deep into the north and play such a big game!

"Stop talking nonsense!" Yang Zhongsi thrust out his spear, "Yelü Dahe, give me your life!"

The spear in his hand was moving faster and faster, leaving a trail of afterimages as it headed straight for Halhan's vital points.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

However, when Li Che led his troops to the outside of the valley, he suddenly heard shouting and killing from inside, and immediately ordered the entire army to stop the pursuit.

"what's the situation?"

Before long, the scouts from the front reported: "Your Highness, there is a battle between two armies in the valley ahead!"

Hearing this, Li Che was stunned.

When I chased to this valley, I considered the possibility of an ambush, so I asked the scouts to explore the way first and the armored cavalry to stay in the front to support the enemy, so that if we encountered an ambush, we could withdraw from the encirclement as soon as possible.

I didn't expect that there was really an ambush inside, and the ambushers actually started fighting among themselves!

Could it be another internal conflict among the Khitans? That shouldn't be the case. The only ones who could have followed Yelu Dahe here should be his direct descendants.

Just as Li Che was feeling doubtful, another scout came with a report: "Your Highness, we have captured a cavalryman ahead. He claims to be an old acquaintance of yours!"

Li Che hurriedly said: "Bring him here."

Soon, two scouts came over, escorting a soldier who was tied up.

The man's face was full of anxiety. He breathed a sigh of relief the moment he saw Li Che and knelt on one knee: "Greetings, Young Marshal!"

Li Che was shocked and looked at the man's face. He really looked familiar.

"Are you a soldier of the National Protection Army?"

"My name is Ge San, and I am the Marshal's personal guard. Young Marshal, you should have met me."

Li Che immediately recognized the man. He was indeed Yang Zhongsi's personal guard, and he had once stood guard for him.

"Why are you here? Could it be that the one fighting the Khitan army up there was Division Yang?!"

Li Che was surprised and delighted. Yang Zhongsi was not only his elder, but also his teacher of military tactics. He also handed the National Protection Army over to him. He could be said to be his greatest benefactor.

"It's the Marshal!" Ge San said hurriedly.

Li Che forced himself to calm down and ordered Qu Jinshan, "Go! Get General Yang, General Chen, and General Jie to come over!"

Qu Jinshan took the order and left. Soon Yang Tian, ​​Chen Pingzhi, Jie Ming and Jie Ming hurried over from the army.

The moment he saw Ge San, Yang Tian's expression changed: "Ge San, why are you here? Where is my father?!"

Ge San quickly saluted: "Miss, General Chen."

Li Che asked Yang Tian and the other two to inquire about some of Ge San's secrets. After confirming that there was no deception, he asked, "What's going on? Why is Master Yang here?"

"Your Highness, Miss. This is a long story."

"Let me make it short." Chen Pingzhi said.

"Yes."

"The Marshal led us to infiltrate the Shiwei, intending to use them to eliminate Yelu Dahe. However, we didn't expect that Yelu Dahe intended to ambush Your Highness here, so we had no choice but to resort to this last resort and strike first!"

"The Marshal has already gone to find Yelu Dahe. He is only accompanied by 800 personal guards. Your Highness, please send troops to rescue him as soon as possible!"
