After Hoan Ky advanced to Nghi An, the remnants of the Qin army gathered enough to rise in the latest chapter of Kingdom – King of the World.
As you know, at the end of chapter 735, the story of Hoan Ky's childhood was interrupted after Hoan Ky headed to Nghi An citadel to join forces with Tin Badger. In chapter 736 of Kingdom of Heaven, unexpected content continues to take place.
Before that, when preparing to go ashore, Hoan Ky had his soldiers leave footprints in the wrong direction. In order to distract Trieu's army, buy more time to flee to Nghi An.
Return to Trieu's headquarters. While the group was speculating about Hoan Ky's direction of flight, the scout suddenly reported that Nghi An had fallen. As a result, the group that crowed a few chapters ago stood still like male ducks, not daring to say a word, not daring to open their mouths to say a word.
Ly Muc was so embarrassed that he tried to stay calm. Why did the two remaining armies capture Nghi An despite their small numbers? A general at Nhan Mon Quan lost his temper and broke the table. The whole group can only conclude, Nghi An citadel has just fallen in a few hours… and Hoan Ky may have entered the citadel now.
The scene change is the greeting between Hoan Ky and Ly Tin. Then there was an urgent internal meeting between the Qin army.
Military strategist Dieu was worried about what to do when the Trieu army arrived, and one of the solutions was to use hostages in Nghi An citadel to negotiate. But after taking inventory, the Sa Devil clan realized that the number of hostages in Nghi An citadel was very small (afraid of not having enough weight to negotiate with the Trieu army).
In the end, Dieu decided that the hostage option was the last resort. The key point now was the city of “Xich Le”. If the remnants of Hoan Ky's army advanced and captured it, the Trieu army would be forced to divide their troops to attack. Nghi An will have more time to defend.
Changing the scene, the night before, Bich led the remnants of his army (Bich Quan, Dong Bac, Hoan Ky…) towards Xich Le citadel. And surprisingly, this remnant army is still quite large. However, the morale of the three troops was lost, because everyone thought Hoan Ky was dead.
At this moment, Bich came forward and howled and confirmed that Hoan Ky was still alive. Because Hoan Ky was still alive, the Trieu army did not rush to chase us, but divided their troops to focus on killing Hoan Ky first. So General Hoan Ky escaped the siege and fled… our mission is to defend Xich Le citadel to the death, waiting for General Hoan Ky to return.
Indeed, Bich's analysis made sense, and the morale of the three troops was raised… but author Hara's closing sentence at the end of the page was a bit heartbreaking. Because tomorrow morning, almost the entire army in Xich Le will be destroyed.
It seems that the outcome of this battle is still unclear, we still have to continue to see the progress of this battle in the next chapters.
