Shi Lan looked at Wang Min with a pair of beautiful eyes and said indifferently, "Where are you going, general?"

"Chasing a felon!"

Wang Min said in a deep voice, "This person's name is Ding Jilin. The Northern Territory Chief Shi Luoxin was assassinated by this person. Lord Shi Lan should also know about this, right?"

"oh?"

Shi Lan sneered, "Ding Jilin is my man, and now he has turned into a knife hunter. Is the court still unwilling to let him go?"

"Please forgive me, sir."

Wang Min said, "His Majesty ordered to clean up the rebels in the north. Ding Jilin's name has long been marked with a vermilion pen, and the last general does not dare to disobey the order."

"Okay, okay."

Shi Lan folded his arms lazily and said with a smile, "If you want to kill Ding Jilin, then go ahead and kill him, but if you really kill him, huh, I will definitely accept your Wang Min's head."

"Huh, okay!"

Wang Min also had an angry look on his face, turned on his horse and said, "Lord of the Sky Tower, Shi Lan, the Withering Blade, let's just take care of each other!"

…

Wang Min led his troops away.

Ding Jilin walked out of the snow, switched to the swordsman body, came to Shi Lan and said, "It seems like there is going to be big trouble again."

"Um."

Shi Lan looked at him and said, "The trouble has actually begun. An external cavalry regiment of our Sky Tower called the 'Red Flame Army' has lost contact with us. They are trapped in the vast sea of ​​snow. I am responsible for this mission."

It has been sent to the knife hunter's bounty place, you go handle this matter and bring the five thousand Red Flame Army back to me alive."

"I know, leave it to me!"

Ding Jilin turned around and left, wearing a red cloak that looked particularly chilling in the wind and snow.

"Hey~~~"

When the old eunuch saw Ding Jilin, he immediately stood up holding the heater and said with a smile, "Little Dingzi, you are finally here again... The Withering Blade has given our bounty office a difficult task. Other knife hunters are avoiding it. It seems that only

Your boy has the ability to complete it."

"OK."

Ding Jilin smiled and nodded, "Bring it!"

The old eunuch threw him a file, and he immediately had a new mission——

"Ding!"

The system prompts you to accept the main mission to save the Red Flame Army!

Mission content: Go to an unknown valley northeast of the Sky Tower, find the whereabouts of the Red Flame Army, and bring them back to the Sky Tower safely. Remember, the total loss of the Red Flame Army must not exceed 1,000 people, otherwise the mission will be judged as a failure and deductions will be made

You have a lot of experience points and reputation points. Once you succeed, you will get unimaginable rich rewards.

…

Ding Jilin was slightly startled. It was actually an SS-level mission, which was somewhat unexpected.

However, the requirements for this SS-level mission seem to be very tricky.

, it is required that the total loss of the Red Flame Army cannot exceed 1,000, which means that there must be various harsh restrictions. Based on Ding Jilin's experience, SS-level tasks cannot be easy, and there must be all kinds of difficulties.

Forget it, let’s go over there first!

Opening the big map, a fiery red area appeared on the map in the northeast, which was the valley where the Red Flame Army was trapped.

So Ding Jilin directly pulled the reins, drove the water unicorn and galloped away, and maintained the state of following the wind into the night. He had to arrive as quickly as possible, so that the Red Flame Army would suffer less damage.

Twenty minutes later, shadowy mountains appeared in the wind and snow ahead.

On the big map, the valley was right ahead, and the valley entrance could even be seen. However, when Ding Jilin squinted his eyes, he discovered that there were corpses lying scattered at the valley entrance. They were all cavalrymen in fiery red armor.

The main war horse walked around blankly in the snow.

It’s the corpse of the Red Flame Army!

Something fishy!

Ding Jilin gently urged the water unicorn forward. Soon, he saw figures hidden in the snow forest. The Qingshuang cavalry were all Wang Min's men and horses. Most of the Qingshuang cavalry put down their spears and replaced them.

The crossbow arrows were loaded, and almost all the corpses of the Red Flame Army were shot through by the crossbow arrows.

This is an ambush.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the entrance of the valley, and then the figures of the Red Flame Army cavalry appeared, led by a thousand cavalry captain.

He held his shield in front of him and roared, "Brothers, rush out. As long as one person returns to the Sky Tower and tells Master Qinglei everything here, the brothers will be saved!"

As soon as he finished speaking, arrows fell like rain in the wind.

Suddenly, a group of Red Flame soldiers fell to the ground after being hit by arrows. Basically, those soldiers who fell to the ground were not spared. They were quickly targeted and shot, leaving no survivors at all.

These border troops led by Wang Min are so ruthless!

At this time, the number of casualties in the Red Flame Army appeared in the upper right corner, and it continued to rise. "Didi Didi" directly climbed from 623 people to 999 people. Ding Jilin's heartbeat almost stopped. If one more person died, this mission would be difficult.

It failed!

Just when his heartbeat was about to reach his throat, a group of Red Flame troops were shot back and they all retreated into the valley. The number of casualties remained at 999.

Okay, the system is powerful enough, so you can play it to the extreme, right?

Ding Jilin frowned, tugged on the reins, and suddenly canceled the state of going into the night with the wind. He raised his hand to imbue the power of the beast, and rushed into the crowd of Qingshuang Iron Cavalry with the Soaring Dragon Sword. Everyone who was watching was slashed with his sword.

Go down.

He left in a blink of an eye, leaving behind a group of Qingshuang cavalry with residual blood, all of whom were stunned.

"That's...what is that

What?"

A young cavalryman frowned and said, "The sword energy is so strong that it almost cut off my lifeblood!"

The other cavalrymen nodded.

One of the Ten Thousand Cavalry Commanders frowned and said, "Hmph, he's a knife hunter... This person is extremely powerful. He may be an eagle dog raised by the Sky Tower. I'm afraid he will be even more troublesome after entering the valley."

…

In the valley.

Ding Jilin galloped in, one by one. On the ground in front of him were hundreds of corpses of Qingshuang cavalry. It was clear at a glance that both sides had set up an ambush at the mouth of the valley, and whoever attacked would suffer.

"who?"

In the distance, a group of Red Flame Army armed with crossbows appeared.

"Don't do it, I'm from the Sky Tower!" ??

Ding Jilin raised his long sword high and mobilized the water unicorn to approach slowly.

"oh……"

A Qianqi Commander recognized Ding Jilin and said excitedly, "You are the commander of Xifeng Camp. I have seen you...Why, Master Shi Lan knows our predicament, so he photographed you to rescue us?"

"No."

Ding Jilin shook his head, "Shi Lan just knew that you were trapped outside, but he didn't know that it was the human army that trapped you. I came here to rescue you. Is there any other exit besides the valley mouth behind you?"

?”

"have!"

Qianqi Commander looked solemn and said, "But it is almost a passage that mortals cannot pass through. We have sent people to try it. 300 brothers have become the meal of that beast. It is really hateful!"

"oh?"

Ding Jilin asked, "Where?"

"Just to the west."

Qianqi Zhang stretched out his hand and said, "There is a secret passage on the west side of this valley, but it is guarded by a terrifying monster. We cannot rush out at all. In the final analysis, we can only get out through the entrance of the valley in front of us.

But a group of invisible human soldiers were guarding there, shooting our people indiscriminately, I don’t know where they came from!”

"They are from the Zhenbei General Wang Min, the frontier Qingshuang Iron Cavalry." Ding Jilin said.

"oh……"

Qianqi Commander muttered, "It's no wonder."

"Why, is there something fishy?" Ding Jilin asked.

"The control doesn't know something."

Qianqi Chang said, "The commander of our Red Flame Army was originally a famous general in the imperial court. It is said that because he was unwilling to accept the invitation, he refused in public and humiliated a minister of the imperial military department. This minister was as heart-warming as a snake and a scorpion, and he was on the same page as Zhenbei General Wang Min.

Wearing a pair of pants, so when Wang Min came to the Northern Territory, the first thing he did was to destroy the Red Flame Army and vent his bad breath."

"I see."
