Wanyan Aguda never thought that he would be intercepted while galloping in the fertile Liaodong.
On this land, only the Wanyan clan had always committed murder, arson, vandalism, looting, but today, when they walked through the important road, arrows suddenly rained down.
Wanyan Aguda even thought it was a nightmare, until a sharp arrow knocked the leather helmet on his head sideways, and he finally realized it.
Soon, the more than fifty elite members of the Wanyan tribe fought back hard while trying to stay away from the ambush area.
However, on the road behind them, the rolling and falling rocks cut off their retreat.
With a cruel smile on his face, Xiao Jing looked at the Wanyan tribe members who were in a mess on the road at the moment.
However, after the other party reacted immediately, all members of the team immediately launched an attack towards the forest on one side.
The next moment, there were sounds of fighting in the forest over there, and the Wanyan tribe actually gave up fleeing immediately.
He rushed directly into the forest and engaged in a melee with the ambush soldiers, causing other ambush soldiers to throw rat weapons because they were fighting against the Wanyan tribe.
Xiao Jing saw that there were only a few Wanyan tribe members lying on the road, and then heard the tragic sound of fighting on the opposite side.
Xiao Jing knew very well that if he could not complete the task entrusted by His Highness the County Prince, he would not end up much better than those straight women who died tragically on the traffic thoroughfares.
He only hesitated for a few breaths, then raised his hand and waved, and the over-a-hundred Khitan elite shooters who were originally at a loss rushed out of the forest without hesitation.
Rushing towards the other side, each feathered arrow, with a harsh scream, penetrated deeply into the mountain forest on the opposite side.
Accompanied by those screams and wails, although the warriors of the Wanyan tribe were brave and good at fighting, they still suffered heavy casualties in the face of an ambush that was several times larger than the enemy.
While the sounds of fighting in the distance were still coming one after another, Wanyan Zhonghan, who was covered in blood at this moment, helped Wanyan Aguda, who had several arrows stuck in his body, and pushed him onto the horse's back.
Looking back, Wanyan Zhonghan no longer hesitated and got on his horse. There were two knights following behind him. The four of them silently headed deeper into the dense forest.
At this moment, the Wanyan tribe, which had no way out, launched a fearless counterattack, causing the Khitan archers to suffer heavy losses as well.
The scene lasted for almost an hour, and then the sound of fighting stopped completely.
#####
Xiao Jing's face was livid, and he was looking at the corpses of the Wanyan tribe's dead that his men had brought back from various parts of the mountain forest.
One arm was now covered in a bleeding bandage. This was when he had just received the news and went to inspect the body said to be Wanyan Aguda.
The "corpse" with its face covered in blood suddenly jumped up and injured someone. If he hadn't been wearing strong armor, he might not have been able to save his entire arm.
After carefully counting it twice, Xiao Jing couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.
Only the corpses of Wanyan Wu Begging and Wanyan Husai were found here, but the corpses of Wanyan Aguda, Wanyan Yanmu, and Wanyan Zonghan were not found.
These are the leaders of the Wanyan tribe who came to participate in the head fish feast this time.
In such a well-prepared ambush, only two big shots were killed, and Wanyan Aguda, who really wanted to beheaded, had already escaped.
Xiao Jing, who was very angry, raised his eyelids and shouted to his subordinates.
"Together with the few people who were shot to death on the road at the beginning, we have only collected the bodies of thirty-seven people. Let them keep looking!"
"You want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you're dead, do you understand?"
Following this angry shout, all the Khitan archers had no choice but to accept the order, bite the bullet and continue searching.
However, everyone knows that in such a mountain forest, trying to find the remnants of the Wanyan tribe who are determined to escape is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
News of the successful ambush reached Xiao Fengxian that night.
When it was heard that Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Zonghan were seriously injured and fled away without trace, Wanyan Wu begged for money and Wanyan Husai was killed on the spot.
In addition to searching for the remnants of the enemy, Wanyan Yanmu, another brother of Wanyan Agu, was found twenty miles away. The other brother resisted stubbornly and was eventually killed.
This made Xiao Fengxian's face darken, and he cursed "trash" several times in his heart. After being ambushed several times, he actually allowed Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Zonghan to escape.
Fortunately, Wanyan Aguda was not unscathed after all. Whether he could return to Wanyan's department alive remains to be seen.
After receiving the news, Xiao Fengxian stood up and strode straight towards Yelu Yanxi's golden tent.
#####
Two days later, news came that Wanyan's tribe was ambushed and suffered heavy casualties.
Wanyan Aguda's three younger brothers, Wanyan Wu Qingbu, Wanyan Husai, and Wanyan Yanmu, all died.
Only Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Zhonghan are missing and their whereabouts are unknown.
This news immediately angered the emperor of Liao State, who summoned all ministers to discuss the matter. After that, he ordered Xiao Feng, the king of Lanling County, to investigate the matter thoroughly.
After several days of careful reconnaissance, Xiao Fengxian came to the conclusion that it was because of the fish feast and hunting.
The talented people from the Wanyan tribe received awards from the Emperor of Liao and were promoted to high positions.
This made them the envy, jealousy and hatred of many tribes, and they suffered such misfortune.
Of course, there is evidence for this. The arrows on the dead of the Wanyan tribe were all inferior iron arrows, and even bone arrows.
It is impossible for the officers and soldiers of the Liao Imperial Army to use such inferior arrows, and such arrows are very popular among the female straight tribes.
As soon as this investigation result came out, the tribe of straight women who still stayed in Changchun Prefecture and had not yet left were in an uproar.
After some time, news came from the Wanyan tribe that Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Zhonghan finally returned to the Wanyan tribe.
#####
Fortunately, the Wanyan tribe not only sent an envoy immediately to inform Yelu Yanxi of the news.
They also donated a large amount of fur goods and implored the Emperor of Daliao to make decisions for their Wanyan tribe.
When the news reached the ears of Yelu Yanxi, for the sake of those gifts.
Now that the other party has surrendered, Yelu Yanxi has put the matter behind him, otherwise how can he show his mercy?
He even sent an envoy to send some money and silk to Wanyan Aguda as a token of appeasement.
Wanyan Wu Yashu, who has been bedridden for many years and has a withered face, looked feebly at Wanyan Aguda who was sitting next to her.
The second brother, who was originally strong and brave, now looked pale and his lips were white.
"Since the Emperor of Liao Kingdom sent you to give a reward, it means that the matter has been revealed."
"Next, second brother, you have to take good care of your injuries. After you recover, you can make further arguments."
"As for me, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the day when the Wanyan clan becomes the whole of Liaodong and replaces Liaodong..."
Wanyan Wu Yashu's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally became silent again.
Wanyan Aguda coughed several times in succession, and finally managed to control his coughing. He raised his hand to wipe the bloodshot eyes from the corner of his mouth.
Those eyes that turned red looked toward the southwest. That direction was Changchun Prefecture...
