Chapter 948 The Acropolis is lost, King Ding returns (1)

It was another hard battle. When it was getting late, I finally finally repelled the Xiling army again. Even Murong Shen was slightly injured. The two stood on the city tower and looked at the gradually retreating Xiling army, and finally showed a tired but pleasant smile.

Before his smile fell, Nan Hou couldn't help but frown again and said in a deep voice: "General Murong will have a good rest tonight. I will take care of everything." Murong Shen worked hard for days and was injured. If he didn't rest, he would really fall down. Murong Shen frowned and looked at the Xiling camp in the distance and said: "I'm afraid that the Xiling army will attack again tonight." In the past two days, the attack of the Xiling army has become much more violent and impatient. After days of hard fighting, the pressure the defenders of the Acropolis have been at their limits. As long as the Xiling army attacks a few more times, they are afraid that the Acropolis will not be able to bear it.

Nan Hou smiled calmly and said, "Don't worry. Is this Hou still guarding me? General Murong can rest with confidence."

Murong Shen also understood the kindness of Nan Hou and nodded and said, "In this way, there will be a blessing in the Marquis."

Nanhou nodded, smiling faintly.

In the tent of the Xiling Army, Lei Tengfeng frowned while checking the injuries on his arm, "I didn't expect that Nan Hou and Murong Shen could fight so well." Today's fierce battle was not only Murong Shen was injured, but also Lei Tengfeng suffered a little bit of minor injuries among the chaotic army. However, it was nothing to do with serious damage.

Lei Zhenting was not surprised and said calmly: "Mr. Nan was also a famous general in the Great Chu, and was named Marquis for his military achievements. When Murong Shen was a young man, he was one of the best generals under Mo Liufang. The two of them joined forces, with your ability, it is not possible to break the acropolis in a short time."

When Lei Zhenting said this, Lei Tengfeng's face was a little uncomfortable, and he said, "Please give advice from his father."

Looking at Lei Tengfeng, Lei Zhenting sighed helplessly. Although he only had Lei Tengfeng, he obviously didn't know how to teach his son compared to Mo Liufang. It was not that Lei Tengfeng was not outstanding, but he was not excellent enough than Mo Xiuyao. But it was precisely this that made people feel even more dissatisfied and depressed. Lei Tengfeng was also not easy to live. His age was similar to Mo Xiuyao, but there were very few people in the world who compared him with Mo Xiuyao. It was just because... he did not have that qualification.

Lei Zhenting said: "Nan Hou and Murong Shen are now at the end of their strength. As long as you step up your attack, you will definitely be able to capture the acropolis before Mo Xiuyao comes back. You don't have to worry about this. But... do you want to subdue Nan Hou and Murong Shen?"

Lei Tengfeng's heart was thunderous and he lowered his head and said, "Son... I just think these two people are rare talents..."

Lei Zhenting smiled helplessly and waved his hand and said, "The father does not agree to you to subdue some capable people for your own use. But... you should see who you want. Nanhou and Murong Shen, you can't suppress them."

Lei Tengfeng raised his eyebrows, and a look of dissatisfaction appeared on his face. Lei Zhenting said calmly: "These two people can be called famous generals in a hundred battles. Murong Shen is arrogant and wants to suppress him unless you have the ability to be absolutely stronger than him. He is still Mo Liufang's old subordinate and is born with more affection for the Mo family army. Now he will only be more loyal to the Mo family army again. What's more, Murong Shen's only daughter married Leng Haoyu, Leng Haoyu. Leng Haoyu is a confidant next to Mo Xiuyao after Feng Zhiyao. In this case, do you think Murong Shen will be loyal to you? As for Nanhou, he is even more difficult to deal with than Murong Shen. Although he has been silent for many years and has not made a name for himself, his arrogance when he was young is no less than Murong Shen. Therefore, the incident of surrendering to the enemy at the last minute will never happen to them."

Lei Tengfeng's uninjured hand was tightly clenched. In fact, he didn't understand what his father said so much. But it was a different meaning in his ears: he was not capable enough, so he could not conquer Murong Shen and Nanhou. Hearing his father say this, in Lei Tengfeng's heart, it was like his father saying in person that he was incompetent.

"The child is incompetent, please forgive me for your sins." Lei Tengfeng lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice.

Seeing him like this, Lei Zhenting could only sigh. After a while, he said, "It's not your fault, don't think so much. The most important thing at the moment is to take down the Acropolis." Lei Tengfeng made a scheming look and nodded, "Don't worry, Father, my son knows what to do."

Late at night, the Acropolis stood in the empty field and looked a little lonely. Under the night, soldiers of the Mo family army stood up on the city tower, firmly guarding the small city. In the darkness, all the people quietly approached the city wall. The man in black quietly climbed up the city tower.

"Swoosh!" An arrow shot out from the darkness, and the man in black who was crawling onto the wall groaned and fell to the ground. A light ignited on the top of the city, and the originally silent town immediately became lively again. For a moment, the sound of fighting and blood filled the entire wilderness.

This night attack lasted until dawn. The soldiers of the Mo family who had been fighting hard for several days finally couldn't hold on. The heavy giant tree knocked open the gate of the acropolis. After a hard battle, both sides suffered serious losses. By dawn, the Nanhou finally ordered the soldiers of the Mo family to withdraw from the acropolis.

Lei Tengfeng, who led his troops into the city, looked at the sound of the Mo family leaving, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, and ordered in a deep voice: "Chase! Obtain the heads of Nanhou and Murong Shen, and reward ten thousand taels of gold."

"Criminal, the prince gave orders..." The generals who followed Lei Tengfeng hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but whisper. Lei Tengfeng's eyes looked like a knife and said coldly: "Now I am the king leading the army! I will naturally explain to my father later. The Mo family army fled in panic, and our army should take advantage of the morale to pursue the victory."

"But……"

Lei Tengfeng said sternly: "Stop your mouth! This is my order!"

In desperation, the general had to nod and said, "The last general was responsible for the order."

Lei Tengfeng took the lead and led the Xiling army through the acropolis and continued to pursue the withdrawn Mo family army. Not long after, Lei Zhenting, who was following behind, arrived at the acropolis, but did not see Lei Tengfeng's people. His expression sank and asked, "Where is the prince?"

The generals below looked at each other for a few seconds before one of them left and reported, "Your Majesty, the prince led his army to pursue Nanhou and Murong Shen."

Upon hearing this, Lei Zhenting's face changed, and he slapped the desk with a palm, and said angrily: "Rareless! I have told him not to act rashly!" The general said in embarrassment: "But the prince..."

Lei Zhenting looked at the slightly helpless generals below and sighed helplessly. Lei Tengfeng is the prince of Zhennan and the only heir of Zhennan Prince's Mansion. These generals naturally dare not ignore his instructions. If he insisted on doing something, he naturally dared not really stop him. Lei Zhenting is a genius of a generation. As long as he thought about it, he understood the reason why Lei Tengfeng was suddenly so impulsive, because of his advice to him before. I am afraid that Lei Tengfeng did not listen to the advice at all, but instead thought that his father's ability was underestimated.
