Chapter 52: A Sword for the Hero, the third update!
Xie Lang couldn't help but be stunned.

This deposed Crown Prince only has less than ten people left by his side.

Could it be that he actually wanted to take off Wugutuhan's head and then return to Tiangu Pass?
"Your Highness..."

He thought again and again, and said:
"In this battle, you defeated the Barbarian King's cavalry. Although you didn't get the Barbarian King's head, it's already a great achievement!"

"so……"

Li Mu smiled faintly and said:

"Since we are going to take Wugutu's head, I can't return empty-handed, otherwise the two generals at Tiangu Pass won't let me go!"

Xie Lang frowned and said:
"We will report the truth when we return, and I'm sure the old general will understand!"

Li Mu shook his head:

"A real man should be a hero when alive and a hero even after death!"

"How can one survive by relying on others for shelter?"

Xie Lang's heart was shocked, and there was more admiration and respect in his eyes when he looked at Li Mu.

What a great saying: Live as a hero and die as a heroic ghost!

A real man should be like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

After a long silence, he turned around, took a long sword from the horse's back, and then held it in front of Li Mu with both hands.

"I see that your Highness's moves are more like sword techniques, but you are using an iron knife."

"This sword was given to me by a friend before I joined the army. Although it is not expensive, it is a good sword made of fine iron!"

"A sword is given to a hero. This sword is given to Your Highness!"

Seeing Xie Lang's sincerity, Li Mu did not refuse. He took the sword with both hands and put it around his waist.

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Bai!"

Xie Lang was very happy to see Li Mu accept it, and a smile appeared on his usually cold face:
"Since Your Highness is determined to continue to go deep into Mobei and kill the Barbarian King, then we will not transport him."

Why does he need to supervise and spur on such a person?

"Someone, bring some wine!"

A Tiger and Leopard Rider brought a few wine bags and placed them in front of Li Mu and others.

"I'll have a drink with His Highness, and then I'll go back to the city to report!"

"it is good!"

Li Mu raised his wine bag and thanked Lang:

"You and I will drink to our heart's content, and then we'll go our separate ways!"

"Cheers to the Chief!"

"To His Highness!"

The two men raised their wine bags, took a long drink, and then smiled at each other.

Wang Bing and others also raised their wine bags and followed the two men in drinking.

"Your Highness, if you can come back, regardless of whether you can chop off the Barbarian King's head or not, I will urge the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to invite Your Highness to serve in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry!"

After this battle, Xie Lang admired Li Mu very much.

He also knew that Li Si was the uncle of the Third Prince and the younger brother of the new Queen, and that this man would definitely not let the deposed Crown Prince go.

Therefore, he already had a plan in mind. After returning to the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry camp, he would report the truth and ask the old general to recruit Li Mu into the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

Without Fang Sheng and Li Si, this prince could only display his full abilities.

"If we can return alive, we will certainly have another round of drinking with Captain Bai, but we can discuss joining the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry later!"

Li Mu said with a calm smile.

The old general of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had not shown up for such a long time, so naturally he did not want to choose sides in such a struggle for imperial power.

Sometimes, if you stand on the wrong side, you will bring unnecessary disaster!

……

In the training ground, the old general with white beard stood upright on the high platform like a spear. In the distance, hundreds of elite tiger and leopard cavalry holding longshou were practicing the method of breaking the formation.

Looking at the soldiers who were training, the old general's expression was calm, but there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes.

The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead!
Unexpectedly, the deposed prince defeated the barbarian king Wugutuhan with only a few hundred soldiers and dozens of death row prisoners around him, forcing him to flee in a panic.

It seems that I am really old!

So much so that, even though he had thousands of Tiger and Leopard Cavalry under his command, he did not dare to do what the deposed crown prince did!
He also thought, if he were to fight this battle himself, would he be able to annihilate thousands of barbarians and force the enemy chief to flee in embarrassment?

After thinking carefully for a long time, he couldn't help but shook his head.

Hard!

This kind of fighting style not only requires extremely effective command, but also requires indomitable courage, and more importantly, it requires several troops to work closely together like hands working with arms.

Even the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry would probably find it difficult to do so!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head and look towards the land outside the Great Wall and in the north of the desert.

There was both joy and worry in his eyes.

Talented people emerge from generation to generation!
The country of Qian actually produced such a rare young hero.

But this deposed prince was not liked by the emperor. Not only did he lose all his power, he was also exiled to the death row of Tiangu Pass!
If he could really return safely from Mobei, what should I do?

Should he continue to sit back and watch Li Si and his men press forward step by step, and finally force this young man into a dead end...

Or will you take action to stop their reckless behavior?
Thinking of this, the old general couldn't help but frown.

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry of Tiangu Pass never took sides, and were only loyal to the Qian Kingdom and His Majesty himself, and never intervened in the dispute over the crown prince.

Once he chooses his side, the entire Tiger and Leopard Cavalry will inevitably be affected by the power struggle!
God has given me a difficult problem!

……

"What! The barbarians actually retreated!"

"What kind of power does the deposed crown prince have that he can actually repel tens of thousands of barbarians!"

Li Sigao was sitting in the lobby, his handsome face twisted by anger and unwillingness, becoming extremely terrifying.

He couldn't help but feel a little regretful at this moment.

If I had known earlier, I should have killed the deposed prince on the first day he arrived at Tiangu Pass.

It was also because of my own carelessness. I thought that the deposed prince had arrived at Tiangu Pass, but he was like a rat in a cage, and he was at my mercy.

But no one expected that he would survive one after another and achieve such a brilliant record!

If he comes back, he must not be allowed to live!

"Don't worry, General!"

Fang Sheng was silent for a while, then smiled coldly and said:

"The deposed crown prince has not returned. He seems to know that although he has taken advantage of the situation to drive the barbarian soldiers away, he still hasn't got the head of the barbarian king Wugutu Khan. We will not let him go!"

"According to our insider in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, the deposed crown prince is determined to go deep into Mobei and continue the decapitation operation!"

"There are less than ten people around him now, and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are no longer supervising. It is questionable whether these people can come back alive, let alone get the Barbarian King's head back!"

When Li Si heard this, his expression finally eased:

"You mean, just wait and see?"

Fang Sheng nodded:

"That's right, General!"

"He has a team of less than ten people, deep in the freezing cold of Mobei, surrounded by barbarians. Even if he survives by chance, he will never be able to come back!"

"But this great achievement of repelling the barbarians can be regarded as a gift from him to us!"

Hearing this, Li Si's eyes changed and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

Yes!

Who says they get nothing?
This victory was brought about by the criminal soldiers.

And he is the commander of the death row camp!
He could have just continued to sit back and watch Li Mu die, but he could have taken the credit for repelling the barbarians!
