Chapter 89 Pursuit

Chapter 89 Pursuit
Wang An could tell at a glance that the little prince and his two companions were dressed in gorgeous clothes and were not ordinary Eastern barbarians. Even before he had time to communicate with Chen Huaian, Wang An had already instinctively identified the other party.

When Xu Huang rushed to his side, he called out, "Call the two generals to follow me to capture the chieftain alive!"

After saying that, he waited there for a while.

Xu Huang quickly gathered two teams of troops, and Wang An then led Xu Huang and others to charge towards the little prince.

However, the little prince and others were riding on horses, and since they were nomadic people, they had excellent riding skills.

Most of the Jizhou guards were infantry, except for Wang An and Xu Huang who were on horseback. The distance between the two sides was quickly widened.

Seeing that the other party was about to escape, Wang An shouted anxiously: "Where is Yu Nu!"

Yu Nu was riding a horse following the army, but no one knew what tricks she used. She was clearly there but had no sense of existence.

At this time, as soon as Wang An called her, she immediately appeared beside you.

Seeing Yunu appear, Wang An pointed at the little prince who was being protected by Beimanggurtai and Longkodo and said, "Don't worry about the others for now. The most important thing is that young man."

After a pause, Wang An added: "It would be best if he can cooperate, but if not, he cannot be allowed to return alive!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Nu said nothing, but squeezed her legs against the horse's belly and immediately disappeared beside Wang An.

At this time, the little prince looked back frequently and looked at Wang An and others who were chasing him.

Seeing the golden figure getting closer and closer, the little prince was so scared that his legs went weak and he could hardly keep his feet on the stirrups.

"Mother! Didn't the prince and his men say that the people of Jizhou were weak and could be bullied like sheep that couldn't move? Why did they suddenly become so fierce and invincible?"

Seeing that the little prince was about to fall off the horse, Longkodo was startled and hurriedly reached out to hold him. If he fell off the horse while running at high speed, he would definitely break bones and tendons.

If the little prince died, he and Manggurtai, as close guards, would surely be killed along with their entire family by the Dongnu Khan even if they were able to escape back to the Donglu.

Rather than that, Longkodo felt that it would be better for him to die in Jizhou. At least his family would not be implicated.

After supporting the little prince, Longkodo hurriedly warned him: "Don't be afraid, little prince. You are riding a Ferghana horse. As long as you concentrate on escaping, you will definitely be able to escape back to the Eastern Tartars!"

Manggurtai, who was standing by, almost vomited blood in anger when he heard this.

As one of the Eastern Nubaturu, Manggurtai had never been so embarrassed no matter how powerful the enemy was.

At this time, the person he was protecting was actually persuaded by others to concentrate on escaping, which made him want to draw his sword and chop Longkodo to death, and then return to the forest to fight the enemy to the death.

However, Manggurtai could not do so, because the little prince was the favorite youngest son of the Donglu Khan. Manggurtai could ignore himself but could not ignore his family.

However, after running for several miles in one breath, the enemy was still following closely behind and showed no sign of giving up.

But the good news is that the shortcomings of the Jizhou guards have been overcome, and the only ones still following closely behind are the man in golden armor, who is suspected to be the prince of Jizhou, and a small number of guards in black armor.

Seeing this, Manggurtai turned his eyes and advised: "Don't panic, little prince. You see, there are only a few horses chasing us. Why don't we turn around and fight back now? If my guess is correct, the man in golden armor must be the legendary Prince Xin of Jizhou!"

"As long as we can capture him alive or kill him, then today's battle will not be considered a failure!" However, the little prince was already frightened and shook his head desperately when he heard this. He set up his wife to scold him: "You dog slave, do you want to kill this prince?"

"If we stop and get entangled by that man, won't the soldiers of Jizhouwei catch up with us immediately?"

Seeing that he could not persuade the little prince, Manggurtai sighed and looked at Longkodo and said, "Longkodo, do you also want to escape like this?"

Manggurtai said this, blinking and winking.

Although Longkodo was known for his flattery, he was not a fool. When he saw Manggurtai trying to please him, he came to his senses after a moment's hesitation.

Because the little prince had just come of age, he was not qualified to have a private guard according to the tradition of the Eastern Tartars, so the guards they brought this time were all the Khan's personal guards.

He originally wanted to catch a big shot and have some fun at the same time, but he didn't expect that he would fall into the gutter.

If they escaped back like this, even if the two of them could keep the little prince safe, the loss of three hundred guards would be an irreparable mistake.

Although Ke Han would not do anything to the little prince, he would definitely kill them both to vent his anger.

By this time, most of the Wei troops were already deeply trapped by the enemy, and it was impossible to recover.

But the only good news is that it is suspected that the men of Prince Xin of Jizhou are pursuing us alone without knowing the consequences.

At present, there are still dozens of elite cavalrymen on his side. Although they are frightened by the defeat, Longkodo is still confident that he can defeat the enemy if he turns around and engages in battle.

If the other party is indeed Prince Xin of Jizhou, capturing him alive and presenting him to the Khan of the Eastern Lu might be able to make up for the loss of 300 personal guards.

Thinking of this, Longkodo also advised: "Little prince, think about it. If we just run back in disgrace, the older princes will definitely make a fuss about this and speak ill of you in front of the Khan!"

"It doesn't matter if Manggurtai and I are punished by the Khan, but if you, the little prince, are implicated and cannot inherit the Khanship in the future, we will be guilty of a great sin!"

Hearing that his brothers might take advantage of this matter to make a big fuss, and even cause his father Khan to be prejudiced against him, and he would have no chance of becoming the Khan of Subu Town in the future, the little prince was immediately caught in a dilemma.

Don't be fooled by his usual arrogance and domineering behavior, but that is based on the absolute advantage he has.

But once he loses power, like today, he immediately becomes anxious and uneasy like a dog that has lost its home.

Moreover, he was already frightened to death when he saw with his own eyes that the Jizhou Guards, who were said to be weak, suddenly became so fierce and warlike.

Although there were indeed only a few people chasing him at this time, the little prince was still panicked. What would he do if he could not quickly deal with the enemy and was surrounded by the enemy's reinforcements?

However, Longkodo was indeed a master of flattery. Although he stopped flattering at this time, his words were still very persuasive.

After being persuaded by Longkodo for a few more words, the little prince still had the Khan's throne in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, you two remember to fight quickly and decisively. If the enemy pursuers catch up with us, we will flee immediately!"

Manggurtai was overjoyed and immediately called out, "Stop, follow me and kill the enemy immediately!"

Slowly, the remnants of the Eastern Tartar soldiers who were originally running at high speed trying to escape from Jizhou slowly tightened the reins and turned their horses around.
