Chapter 229

Da Qian borderlands.

Pingcheng!

This is a small city adjacent to Great Chu and Da Qian; the city walls are rammed with solid earth, and although most of the people in the city wear coarse cloth robes, they all have smiles on their faces.

For a small border city, no war means the best days and the best times.

On the city wall, a middle-aged man wearing black armor and having a thick beard was guarding the city as usual.

The middle-aged man is named Zhao Tian; he joined the army at sixteen and, without any connections, climbed his way up to become a general of a city.

Although it is only a small border city, he patrols every day, not daring to have the slightest slack.

"My Lord, Great Chu and Da Qian have had peace for ten years; you don't need to come every day. The border is boring; with this effort, it's better to go to the brothel and have some fun."

"The brothers are watching on the city wall."

Seeing Zhao Tian arrive, a deputy general with a scar on his face immediately joked.

Guarding the city is boring, so dirty jokes are a common occurrence.

Zhao Tian didn't have any airs, and he was just about to laugh and scold him a few times.

But just at this moment.

The earth trembled, dust flew, and for a time, even the people in the city were filled with terror.

On the city wall, Zhao Tian's expression changed instantly; he raised his head abruptly and saw a scene he would never forget in his life.

Within his line of sight, a black torrent of steel was charging forward in a grand manner, and one couldn't even see the end at a glance.

A rough look showed at least one hundred thousand!

In the very center, a black military flag with the character 'Chu' written on it fluttered in the wind, rustling as if it had come alive!

Zhao Tian felt as if needles were pricking his back!

He roared hysterically.

"Enemy attack!"

"Eight-hundred-mile urgent report, quickly send it to Changan!"

He drew his large saber, his whole body tensed.

The deputy general also drew his saber, and looking at the scene before him, he couldn't help but say, "Has Great Chu gone mad?"

Separated by dozens of miles, they saw the dense cavalry of Great Chu; they were filled with murderous intent, their eyes ferocious.

A sky-high murderous aura permeated from their bodies, as if it wanted to make the heavens and earth change color.

They were just like purgatory cavalry from hell!

Zhao Tian's face was pale, and he didn't say much, just gripped his large saber tightly.

But he knew clearly in his heart that with such force, Pingcheng's strength would likely not be able to hold for even half a day!

A catastrophe had arrived!

Now, it all depended on whether the intelligence could be sent out.

At the very front of the one hundred thousand Great Chu cavalry, there was a tall, date-red horse, on which sat a woman wearing soft armor.

The woman was heroic and spirited, with a sharp aura permeating her body.

Behind her, a middle-aged war general rode his warhorse forward.

"Second Princess, give the order!"

"Past Pingcheng, our army can head south all the way; the defender of Longguan, known as Da Qian's number one majestic pass, has rebelled. After Longguan, Da Qian is flat as a pancake, and with our Great Chu's one rider and two horses, we can completely kill our way to the foot of Changan with lightning speed!"

The middle-aged war general was full of excitement, his gaze filled with ambition.

Chu Qingluan, the Second Princess of Great Chu, had studied military strategy since childhood, mastered the essence of military strategy, and was deeply trusted by the Chu Emperor.

The middle-aged man was also not simple; his name is Chu Tianfeng, known as the War God of Great Chu, having experienced seventy victories and one defeat in his life!

Chu Qingluan pulled the reins, her gaze looking at the Pingcheng city wall, her cold face filled with murderous intent!

"This time, let our Great Chu give the Da Qian Empress a heaven-sized surprise; we must thank this Da Qian Empress. If she weren't a female emperor, how would the feudal princes of Da Qian trade with our Great Chu, causing that Longguan defender to rebel, and where would such a heaven-sent opportunity come from!"

Chu Qingluan suddenly drew her large saber; the cold saber emitted a heart-palpitating cold light, the tip of the saber pointing in the direction of Pingcheng.

She said loudly.

"The Da Qian Empress has ascended the throne; this is a once-in-a-lifetime moment!"

"Invade Da Qian, there are countless gold, silver, and jewelry!"

"There are women with skin so tender you could pinch water out of it!"

"Do you want them!"

Accompanied by Chu Qingluan's words.

The soldiers of the Chu Kingdom had red eyes, and they let out earth-shaking roars.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Chu Qingluan's face was cold, and she suddenly swung her large saber down, "Kill for me!"

In an instant, the one hundred thousand Chu army, like a torrent of steel, crushed towards Da Qian's Pingcheng.

For a time, as the horses' hooves trampled, the earth trembled!

Chu Qingluan's face was cold, her eyes full of murderous intent, as if she had already seen the blood and rain in Changan; she said coldly: "Trying to cut off the rivers of the Canglan River and the Yarlung Tsangpo River to make our Great Chu lack water—that really is a vicious scheme!"

"This time, if I don't grind you, Gao Yang, into dust, I, Chu Qingluan, might as well die by crashing into something!"
