The two commanders who once fought fiercely to the death, King Jin of Western Xia, Wei Ming Anhui and Liao's Northern Academy Chief of Staff, Xiao Wuna, at this moment dismissed their attendants and sat face-to-face in the valley that had just witnessed a bloody battle.
Both of them bore traces of the campaign and fatigue on their bodies.
Wei Ming Anhui's armor still had remnants of blood from the Stone Bridge of the Huang River, while Xiao Wuna's complexion bore the pallor of long-term hardship.
After a long silence.
Wei Ming Anhui could no longer contain himself and spoke in a deep voice: "Chief Xiao, you and I both understand the current situation. The Song Army attacks my Xia Territory, and my country is in danger. I... need to lead my troops back west."
His words were very direct.
Indeed, at this stage, there was no need for either side to keep up appearances.
By no means, he must immediately return to Western Xia.
