I summoned all the famous generals of history in another world.

Chapter 314 Apology

Zhao Fengyun fought two opponents alone, yet he held his own and grew stronger with each battle.

His archery skills were unpredictable and impossible to defend against.

However, at that moment, dust rose in the distance, and the Night Sha army's follow-up cavalry had arrived one after another.

Upon seeing the situation on the battlefield, he immediately joined the battle and engaged in fierce fighting with the Qian army brought by Fengxue and Shandian.

Seeing that the Night Fury soldiers were numerous and powerful, and that Zhao Fengyun was too brave to defeat, Fengxue and Shandian knew that today's events were beyond saving.

This makeshift checkpoint is already indefensible; continuing the fight will only put us in an even more passive position.

Seeing that things were hopeless, Wind and Snow and Lightning exchanged a glance, a hint of helplessness flashing in their eyes.

They knew that continuing this protracted fight would be detrimental to them.

So, they tacitly chose to retreat.

"Zhao Fengyun, today's battle is still undecided."

"There will be plenty of time in the future, we'll meet again!"

Lightning's aura suddenly surged upwards, and he unleashed several slashes in an instant. After leaving behind a single sentence, he flashed away from the battle and turned to leave with Wind and Snow.

The two figures quickly disappeared from the battlefield, leaving only a cloud of dust, and sped off towards Minglong Pass.

"Haha, if you two have no desire to fight, why didn't you say so earlier?"

Zhao Fengyun laughed heartily.

The wind and snow, along with lightning, ran off the battlefield without looking back, leaving behind only a scene of devastation and the cheers of the Night Fury.

Zhao Fengyun stood on the gate wall, gazing at the two fleeing figures in the distance. After hesitating for a moment, he still did not pursue them.

The most urgent task now is to take down all the checkpoints outside Minglong Pass before the Night King's army arrives.

Without knowing the current situation of Minglong Pass.

It would be a bad idea to waste time chasing after them rashly.

Gongsun Yang has already paid the price for his carelessness.

Zhao Fengyun didn't want to be tricked again.

Moreover, although this battle was brief, it was of great significance, greatly boosting the morale of the Night Fury army.

That's enough.

At Minglong Pass, Fengxue and Shandian looked back at the Nightshade Army in the distance with solemn expressions.

Although today's defeat was not due to a lack of fighting skills, but rather to a lack of numbers and strategy.

However, judging from the Night Fury's cautious fighting style this time...

With just Minglong Pass, it's unlikely that the Nightshade Army can hold off the Nightshade Army for long.

...

The night was as dark as ink, the moon hung high in the sky, and its silvery light flowed down.

Gongsun Yang, disheartened by the defeat, spurred his horse onward, galloping through layers of tents. The sounds of armor clashing against weapons and the low murmurs of the soldiers' conversations were drowned out by the thunder of his galloping hooves.

At this moment, his heart was filled with anxiety and self-blame.

Despite being a war god, he was stopped by two peak-level generals after this defeat on the front lines.

I haven't beaten them both yet!

This made Gongsun Yang feel that he had lost face.

He wanted to report to the Night King immediately and apologize.

At this moment, the central command tent was brightly lit.

The Night King sat upright before his desk, a cold light flashing in his deep eyes, as if he were deep in thought.

As soon as Gongsun Yang entered the tent, he felt an aura of majesty wash over him.

"This humble general, Gongsun Yang, begs forgiveness from the Night King."

"The reason why General Zhao had to help us in this battle was due to my own lack of strength. I beg the Night King to punish me."

He took a deep breath, knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice.

"General Gongsun, victory and defeat are common occurrences in war. This defeat is not solely your fault."

"However, you must understand that as a general, the responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai."

"Rise and tell me the details of the battle."

Night King frowned slightly, staring intently at Gongsun Yang, before slowly speaking after a moment.

Gongsun Yang stood up and reported the battle situation at the front to Night King in detail.

"Although General Gongsun suffered a defeat this time, it was only because those two generals were too cunning."

The Night King spoke slowly, his voice carrying an undeniable authority.

Gongsun Yang lowered his head and remained silent, his hands clenched into fists, as if blaming himself for failing to capture the two generals.

He was filled with guilt as the vanguard general of the Night Fury.

He was well aware of the weight of his responsibilities, and this defeat was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him.

"The fact that this combination technique is still preserved is not the fault of the general."

The Night King's voice rang out again, his words carrying a hint of comfort and understanding.

The battlefield is unpredictable, and victory or defeat can often be decided in an instant.

Upon hearing this, Gongsun Yang looked up at the Night King, his eyes gleaming with gratitude.

He knew the Night King's magnanimity and ability to recognize and appoint capable people, which strengthened his resolve to serve the Night Fury.

"General, please rise."

Night King continued, his eyes revealing his trust and expectations for Gongsun Yang.

Gongsun Yang stood up, straightened his back, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

"Thank you, Your Highness. This humble general will certainly do his utmost to atone for his crimes!"

He took a deep breath and bowed deeply to the Night King.

"I have always seen General Gongsun's loyalty and talent."

"This defeat is not your fault. On the battlefield, victory and defeat are common occurrences for soldiers. General, you need not blame yourself too much."

After listening, the Night King pondered for a long time before slowly speaking.

After listening, the Night King pondered for a long time before slowly speaking.

These words immediately dispelled the gloom in Gongsun Yang's heart.

They regained their confidence and fighting spirit, determined to avenge their previous defeat in the upcoming battles.

At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the tent, and a middle-aged man dressed in brocade robes walked in. It was Ye Yun, the Night King's capable strategist.

"General Gongsun, you've worked hard."

After bowing to the Night King, he turned to look at Gongsun Yang and nodded slightly.

"General Gongsun, do not be discouraged. The battlefield is ever-changing; who can predict the future?"

"The important thing is that we can learn from this and continuously improve ourselves."

He then turned to Gongsun Yang and said.

"Lord Yeyun is absolutely right. This humble general will certainly remember this humiliation."

"The next time I see those two bandit generals, I will make sure they die a horrible death under my Purple Gold Hammer!"

Gongsun Yang nodded, then said fiercely.

"Excellent. I am confident that General Gongsun will shine in the upcoming battles."

Ye Yun smiled slightly as he looked at the menacing Gongsun Yang.

The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere in the tent immediately became much more relaxed.

"Ye Yun, you've come at the right time. What are your thoughts on the upcoming battle?"

The Night King looked at his own brain, Night Cloud, and said in a deep voice.

"Your Highness, if our hundreds of thousands of troops are simply piled up at Minglong Pass, I'm afraid we'll reach a stalemate."

"In my opinion, we should send a detachment to conquer or defend against enemies coming from the east of Qianzhou and Hengzhou."

"This will both disperse the forces of the Great Qian Dynasty and create opportunities for our main force to fight."

Ye Yun lowered his head and pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

"That makes sense. So, in your opinion, who is capable of undertaking this important task?"

The Night King thought for a moment and nodded.

"General Gongsun must be feeling resentful after his defeat at the front."

"I have a plan that can allow General Gongsun to atone for his crimes through meritorious service."

Ye Yun glanced at Gongsun Yang, understanding that the general's fighting spirit had not been diminished by the temporary setback. He turned to Ye Wang, smiled slightly, and said:

Upon hearing this, the Night King raised an eyebrow, signaling Night Cloud to continue.

"Why don't we have General Gongsun and Qifeng lead a detachment to Hengzhou?"

Ye Yun slowly revealed his plan: "General Qifeng is both wise and brave. With her and General Gongsun working together, we will surely be able to hold our heads high and wipe away our shame."
