Your Majesty said that my life is worthless, so why are you crying when I increase my troops?

Yue Hanshan looked into the distance, his expression becoming a little serious.

"Although this batch of Huaiqing Prefecture's troops only has a thousand men, it is enough to give us a headache."

"To complete the previous plan, we'll need at least 500 people. We must contain them."

"Commander, man proposes, God disposes. Why don't we just fly kites with them? As for annihilating them, we can discuss it later when the time is right."

There was a hint of persuasion in Yue Hanshan's voice.

The enemy is numerous and we are few, so even if we have the advantage of time and place, our chances of winning are slim.

Even if we win, it may be a pyrrhic victory.

"We'll discuss it later?"

However, Xia Mingyuan just raised the corner of his mouth and showed a disdainful smile on his face.

"That little bastard Xia Lingfeng, letting him live even one minute longer would be a humiliation to me."

"He must die here today!"

Hearing this, Yue Hanshan couldn't help but tremble all over, raised his head and looked at Xia Mingyuan in disbelief.

Before he could speak, Xia Mingyuan said in a deep voice, "I will take fifty good fighters to block the enemy along the mountain road. You take the others and act according to the previously made plan."

"Remember, I'll hold these people back for you, but Xia Lingfeng has one thousand fewer guards. Even if it costs me your life, you'll have to eat them all."

"Commander!"

Yue Hanshan's face was solemn. "With only fifty people, how can we stop the attack of thousands of people? This is really too risky."

"If you insist on doing this, I will lead others to stop them, and you will command the overall situation from here."

Hearing this, Xia Mingyuan couldn't help but chuckle and patted Yue Hanshan on the shoulder.

"General Yue, I only have fifty men, but I'm confident that I can hold this mountain. Can you?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Hanshan was slightly stunned, his eyes widened, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

"Commander, please don't joke with me."

"Unless these fifty people are sent down from heaven, there is no way they can stop the attack of a thousand people."

"Excuse me, what you are doing is no different from committing suicide."

"No matter what the reason, I will never agree to this. You are risking your life."

Looking at Yue Hanshan's worried expression, Xia Mingyuan couldn't help laughing.

He shrugged and said calmly, "General Yue, how do you know that I don't have any other support?"

"There's still a trump card that I haven't used yet."

"Now that he has been forced to this point, it can only mean that Xia Lingfeng has a bad fate."

"This……"

Yue Hanshan was completely confused and looked at Xia Mingyuan in astonishment.

"Don't worry, this commander never fights a battle without preparation. Do as I say, capture Xia Lingfeng alive, and we'll have a celebration after today."

After saying this, Xia Mingyuan didn't give Yue Hanshan any chance to continue persuading him, and turned to walk down the mountain.

Not long after he walked out, Xia Mingyuan had an idea and called up the system panel.

[Ordinary soldiers: 4867.]

[Level 1 Edge Archer: 46.]

[Level 1 Vine Shield Soldier: 50.]

[Level 1 Yellow Turban Warrior: 196.]

[Level 3 Wei Wuzu: 6250]

[Level 3 Iron Shield Soldier: 900]

[Level 3 Elite Archer: 2900]

Level 3 Scout Cavalry: 4600

[Level 4 Qilin Guard: 375.]

[Level 5 Dragon Warrior: 30.]

[Level 6 Tiger Guards: 10]

With the system, he can summon soldiers anytime and anywhere.

These people combined can definitely stop the thousand people from going up the mountain.

Thinking of this, Xia Mingyuan did not hesitate at all. He immediately used up the quota of 4,000 ordinary soldiers and exchanged them for 1,000 Wei Wuzu.

One thousand people against one thousand people, very fair.

Xia Mingyuan looked at the numbers jumping in the system denomination, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Wang Gangyi, we'll bring fifty people in a moment. Once we've drawn all the enemies together, we'll use a trick on them like a mantis stalking a cicada while the oriole waits behind."

After exchanging a thousand people, he did not rush to summon them out. Instead, he looked at Wang Gangyi and gave orders in a deep voice.

As a soldier produced by the system, Wang Gangyi is extremely intelligent. He will not question Xia Mingyuan's orders and will carry them out without hesitation.

After finishing all this, Xia Mingyuan led his soldiers to meet the team going up the mountain.

"Everyone be careful, there are enemies!"

Seeing that it was getting dark, Xia Mingyuan ran into the army going up the mountain in front of him head-on.

The mountain road was narrow, and even though the opposing army could not deploy, the one or two hundred people rushing in the front immediately put Xia Mingyuan at a disadvantage.

In the valley below, the vigilant Ma Guangyuan heard the shouting and his face suddenly changed drastically.

"Oh no! There really is an ambush! Quickly retreat with His Highness!"

After hearing the order, he cursed in his heart, stomped his feet suddenly, and was about to rush forward to save Xia Lingfeng.

Xia Lingfeng was walking in front and had not yet reacted to what was happening.

At this moment, rocks fell from the mountain like rain.

"what!"

For a moment, screams were heard one after another, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Xia Lingfeng's eyes widened, and he raised his head and looked towards the top of the valley in surprise.

Seeing a huge rock about to hit him, he stood there in a daze.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Ma Guangyuan finally arrived, pulled him off the horse, and protected Xia Lingfeng behind him.

"Your Highness, we've been ambushed."

"I've left a thousand men outside to support us. Let's retreat quickly."

Xia Lingfeng was already frightened at this moment, his face was pale and his whole body was shaking.

At that moment, he almost lost his life.

At this moment, he no longer had the arrogance he had before. He hid behind Ma Guangyuan and shouted desperately in a crying voice to protect the emperor.

Seeing this scene, Ma Guangyuan shook his head helplessly.

A tiger father and a dog son. If the kingdom of Daxia is really handed over to this guy, I am afraid it will completely decline.

On the hillside, Xia Mingyuan was surrounded by hundreds of Huaiqing Prefecture troops who rushed up.

At this moment, Chen Fei, the captain of Huaiqing Prefecture, was excited and his eyes were wide open.

He never expected that he would run into the enemy's commander here again.

And judging from the situation, Xia Mingyuan has reached a dead end, with only fifty guards around him.

If we can capture him alive, it will be a great achievement when we return.

Maybe he will be appreciated and reused by the young prince, and will soar to fame from then on.

Thinking of this, Fade Chen's eyes became more excited. He quickly broke through the encirclement and rushed to Xia Mingyuan.

"Xia Mingyuan, you dare to stop me from advancing on the army with only fifty men. Since you want to die, it's best to lay down your weapons now. I can give you some dignity."

Chen Fei's words caused everyone around him to burst into laughter.

"It's a pity that our General Ma is still extremely wary of you. Your Highness is right. You are nothing more than a bandit and a reckless man. It's impossible for you to achieve great things!"
