Chapter 626: Chapter 52 Under the Iron Cavalry, See Breaking Army Again_4

Li Guanyi personally led the bridle forward, the soldiers of the Qilin Army bowed their heads, offering sufficient respect to the mother of their strategist, while Zhao Jiao cursed in his heart, "Which band of mountain robbers or chaotic army is this?! Or a warlord, or some General?!"

How could they possibly be here?!

He shrank back, hoping he wouldn’t be noticed.

Indeed, Li Guanyi paid him no attention.

Because, the sound of a second wave of iron cavalry was already approaching.

Li Guanyi raised his eyes, saying, "Form ranks."

Ling Pingyang followed the military order, and the entire Qilin Army remounted. Li Guanyi had the little donkey of Shaking Light and Xu Huilan’s horse ride side by side, then he personally mounted his warhorse. The sounds from the warhorse were deep and solemn, faintly resembling the roar of a ferocious tiger.

It was also a thousand iron cavalry, but this time, the cavalry that arrived were fully armored, their armor engraved with patterns resembling the traces of tigers, being one of the three great Heavy Cavalry of the world, the Tiger Barbarian Cavalry of Ying Country!

The leader, although young, was dressed in luxurious clothes, his hair crowned with golden threads.

Surrounded by officials in court attire, these were all high-ranking officials from the entire province and county. Zhao Jiao stared blankly, recognizing one of them as someone whom he had to kowtow to during meetings, always with utmost respect, his face turning white.

But now, this eminent person was standing at the very back, bending and scraping.

Where was his usual calm and control, his demeanor that suggested everything in the world was within his grasp? Such a person stood at the back? Then who... who could be at the front?

Zhao Jiao’s face went ashen.

The Crown Prince of Ying, Jiang Gao, looked at the calm familiar figure in front of him. Since the Qilin Army had entered Ying Country, intelligence had been continuously sent to the Court of Ying. As the Prince, he had to personally come to welcome them, just as he heard Li Guanyi’s Heavy Cavalry of the Qilin Army suddenly speeding towards a location.

Thus, the world’s top Heavy Cavalry quickly followed suit.

They arrived almost immediately one after the other. Li Guanyi saw among the officials one acquainted figure, in a brocaded robe, with features handsome enough to rival those of women, yet exuding a distinct air of masculine vigor. His eyes shone with a purple light because of extreme excitement.

Of course, his expression remained composed.

Not just composed, but also indifferent, he said to the person beside him, "Hm? So that’s the person, doesn’t seem anything special."

The person beside him turned pale with shock, saying, "That’s the Qilin, the Marquis Qin Wu..." commenting on how heroic and formidable he was, not to be underestimated in the slightest.

Yet that man’s expression remained unperturbed.

Truly, not a hint of a smile.

Breaking Army!

One year later, they met again.

Breaking Army was calm and detached, seeming very indifferent.

Li Guanyi made no show of familiarity with Breaking Army, his gaze paused briefly in greeting before turning towards the Prince. The erudite Prince grew silent, bowed slightly, his gaze lowered in a proactive gesture of respect, speaking softly,

"Jiang Gao has seen the Marquis Qin Wu."

At his words, the area fell silent as dead.

The Crown Prince offering a salute?!

The valiant young man wearing ordinary clothes made all the county officials, clothed in fine silks and satins, dismount to salute. Li Guanyi returned the gesture, saying,

"Brother Jiang Gao, it has been a long while."

This was on the basis of personal friendship.

The Crown Prince of Ying nodded with a smile, saying, "It has indeed been a year since I’ve seen the Marquis Qin Wu. May I ask why the Marquis, instead of going to the city, has suddenly come here? For what reason?"

Because it was Jiang Gao, Li Guanyi answered candidly,

"For the mother of my strategist."

This was a recognition and assurance of identity.

Then, as if something had just come to mind, he said casually, "I did hear that someone here claimed to enjoy life more freely and comfortably than the Emperor. Since this person is an official appointed by the Court, it’s not my place to say anything."

Jiang Gao said, "Oh? There’s such a person. I wonder what his name is."

A certain individual stiffened, but was surrounded by the cavalry.

Li Guanyi held the bridle.

For his own sake, he couldn’t be bothered to deal with these matters.

But this was for Yuan Zhi, about the ten years of severed ties between Yuan Zhi, his mother, and his aunt and uncle, about the uncle who taught him the heart of a knight and lost a leg. Li Guanyi didn’t care about so-called loss of dignity; he still had the air of a heroic outlaw about him.

He held grudges, was small-minded, yet had a grand spirit.

To vent for Yuan Zhi was indeed the more satisfying, the better!

Li Guanyi gestured with his riding whip towards the man frozen in place, saying leisurely,

"His name is Zhao Jiao."
