Chapter 879: The Mongol Army Attacks

“Ding!”
After breaking through from the Mongol camp, the continuous system alerts in his ears filled Kai Xin with excitement:
“Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling have escaped successfully; the emergency mission is completed.”
“They have successfully shaken off the pursuit of the Yin Empress and the Demon Marshal, and the mission to set fire to the logistics camp’s supplies has been accomplished!”
As expected, the system would only recognize the mission’s completion after a successful escape. While maintaining the technique of merging himself with his horse to ride swiftly, Kai Xin also assessed his direction, preparing to return to the camp.
This mission not only solidified his position as camp commander but also granted him an additional 50,000 combat points!
Moreover, during this mission, he killed at least 200 Mongol cavalrymen. Those who died from fires or smoke attacks were also counted toward his combat points, adding another 5,000 points. Upon returning to the camp, he would have enough points to reach the quota of 2,000 soldiers.
“I wonder how things are going with Silver Fox.”
Thinking of this, Kai Xin suddenly remembered that there was still a flanking harassment mission assigned to Silver Fox—likely, the 10,000 Mongol cavalrymen hadn’t been wiped out yet.
He cautiously glanced back at the smoldering logistics camp. The pursuers had long disappeared, and he finally felt relieved. “I should go check. Hopefully, those guys haven’t wiped out all my cavalry…” he prayed silently.
Less than ten minutes later, as he approached the Mongol camp—
Suddenly!
Boom!!!
A deafening sound of hooves echoed in the distance.
Suddenly, the ground began to shake violently—extremely intensely and frequently. An astonishing momentum surged from the direction of the Mongol camp, accompanied by deep, passionate horns and howls like those of wild beasts.
What was going on?
Kai Xin immediately realized that this was certainly not something that could be caused by Silver Fox’s small group of cavalrymen and those 10,000 cavalrymen. His heart tightened, and he quickly pulled back on the reins. “Gallop!” He changed direction and headed for a nearby hill—somehow, a sense of unease flashed through his mind.
As soon as he reached the hill, a terrifying scene came into view, making his blood run cold…
Boom!!!
Boom…
A sea of Mongol cavalrymen covered the sky and land, like black waves crashing down from the horizon.
Thousands of soldiers led by Silver Fox and Hong Chen were being chased by over a thousand Mongol cavalrymen. They were about a mile away from the Mongol army, and Kai Xin could clearly see the fear and sweat on their faces as they fled frantically toward him.

Not far away, over two thousand Mongol cavalry riders were chasing a group of a few hundred cavalrymen, just as ferocious. Those at the front were desperate to abandon their armor and flee for their lives.
Doom!
To them, the vast Mongol army blocking out the sky was like a devil destined to destroy everything in its path; slowing down even slightly could mean being utterly devoured.
In an instant, Kai Xin realized they were in grave trouble, his face turning extremely pale.
At the same time, Yin Hu and the others racing below also spotted Kai Xin on the high ridge. Their faces lit up with joy, but it quickly turned into shouts:
“Kai Xin, run fast!!”
“The Mongol army is about to sweep through the troops on the grassland front—run! Otherwise, we’ll all die here!!”
As Yin Hu shouted to warn them, they noticed the Mongol cavalry constantly drawing bows and throwing short axes. One by one, the NPC cavalrymen, like stationary targets, fell off their horses and died during their frantic flight—the situation was dire.
The Mongol cavalry were highly skilled and moved at great speed. Those at the front had apparently encountered the full force of the Mongol army while fighting and had no time to quickly leave the battlefield or escape their pursuers, thus being steadily cut down.
Under normal circumstances, over a thousand Mongol cavalry could be dealt with in a single charge by the four hundred men below…
But now everyone knew that if they stopped even for a moment, those chasing them wouldn’t be just over a thousand—it would be countless hundreds of thousands of cavalry!!!
So no one dared to stop…
However, with thousands of cavalry against a thousand Mongol riders, at the current pace, the Mongols would soon wipe them out completely!
It might even threaten the four hundred elite warriors of the Mu Family and the Xiyi Sect…
Seeing this, Kai Xin couldn’t stand by idly:
“Go!!”
A clear sound of a whip crackled as one man and one horse rushed down from the high ridge at full speed.
“Boss Kai Xin!”
“Kai Xin!” “Lord of the Mansion!” Everyone was thrilled upon seeing Kai Xin arrive.
Some people were about to turn back when Yin Hu shouted at them to stay:
“Those who don’t want to die, keep running!”
“Come back! There are hundreds of thousands of Mongol cavalry—can you even defeat them? Kai Xin is here to cover our retreat… Brothers, run at full speed!” Hong Chen realized Kai Xin’s intention and quickly urged the men of the Xiyi Sect to keep running.
But to Kai Xin’s surprise, despite their shouts, two riders still rushed forward from the group.
“Come back… Huh?”
Kai Xin, who was about to scold them, suddenly held back his words, staring in disbelief at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling before him…
“How come it’s you?”

“Hehe, we can’t just abandon you alone without any loyalty, right?” Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling laughed heartily.
Immediately, the three of them charged forward with renewed vigor into the pack of a thousand Mongol cavalry pursuers.
In the blink of an eye, over a hundred of the Mongol cavalry were killed!
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling fought on opposite sides, swiftly slaying more than a hundred cavalrymen each.
Kai Xin took out his Dragon Slaying Sword and the “Ten Styles of Blood Battle,” slashing wildly.
The thousand cavalry were soon reduced to pieces.
But…
Two li was merely a moment’s ride for cavalry.
The overwhelming wave of cavalry rushed forward in an instant.
By now, the three of them had fought their way through most of the Mongol cavalry. Seeing that Yin Hu and his men had already fled far away, they didn’t dare delay and used the “Man and Horse Unity Technique” to race ahead and widen the distance.
“Amazing!”
With double combat experience and the killing of two thousand-commanders, Kai Xin instantly earned over seven thousand combat points, overjoyed.
However, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling’s expressions darkened:
“The entire Mongol army has launched an attack! This is trouble!”
“Mm… It must be because we burned their supplies. Kublai assumed that if our plan to burn their supplies succeeded, the Central Plains would surely take action. So he decided to attack before we could return.”
After a pause, Kou Zhong pointed upward:
“See? Even the skies are blocked. We can’t even send messenger pigeons…”
Following Kou Zhong’s gesture, Kai Xin quickly noticed several clear black dots in the blue sky—likely Mongol war eagles.
Advanced trained beasts capable of rapid message delivery, high-altitude reconnaissance, and hunting Central Plains messenger pigeons.
“If the Central Plains camp remains unaware, they’ll surely suffer heavy losses!”
“That’s right.”
Kou Zhong took a deep breath: “Kublai is indeed no ordinary person. If we can’t return in time to report, not only will the advantage of burning their supplies be lost, but we’ll also fall into an even more dangerous situation!”
