Chapter 375

~7 min read 1,261 words

Various sounds mixed together, rushing straight into the clouds.

Inside Great Chu, the heavy sound of war drums resounded across the sky, the beats rapid, while on the walls of Changan, hundreds of musicians played the "Prince of Qin Breaks the Ranks" together, their fingers flying fast, making one's blood boil.

Wu Zhao brought her saber down, beheading a Chu soldier who was blocking her path.

Blood stained her dragon robe red, and she cast her eyes toward the Great Chu's commander flag in the distance, a touch of madness surging in her eyes!

"Gao Yang, be crazy with me!"

Gao Yang, while holding his saber and aiming at a Chu soldier, actually fired a sleeve arrow that pierced the soldier's eye.

Hearing Wu Zhao's words, Gao Yang's face turned green.

"Your Majesty, you are a bit too crazy!"

"You cannot charge forward anymore!"

Wu Zhao, however, felt the blood in her whole body boiling bit by bit.

Iron armor and icy rivers, charging the formation to kill the enemy, taking the enemy general's head amidst ten thousand troops—who said women couldn't do it?

Chu Qingluan looked at the direction the Da Qian dragon banner was moving; if she hadn't seen wrong, the direction the dragon banner was moving forward was exactly the direction she was in.

"This Da Qian Empress wants to take me down amidst ten thousand troops?"

Chu Qingluan looked annoyed, even feeling that this Da Qian Empress and the Living Yama were crazy.

"A mere Changan cavalry, things like ants, also dare to overestimate themselves?"

"There is a path to heaven, but you don't take it; there is no gate to hell, but you insist on breaking in. Chu Kuang, you personally lead the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, pierce through them, and capture that Da Qian Empress alive!"

Chu Kuang revealed a ferocious grin.

The Great Chu Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was one of the top elite cavalries among the seven kingdoms.

Not only were they clad in heavy armor, but their horsemanship was unparalleled; each one was a top-tier elite, costing the Chu Emperor a massive amount of silver every year.

You Changan bunch of old, weak, sick, and disabled—how many elites can you have? You don't even have many warhorses, yet you dare to charge the formation?

Chu Kuang looked disdainful as he led the Great Chu Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to kill toward the direction of the Da Qian dragon banner.

The smell of blood on the battlefield stirred the bloodlust in his heart!

"Da Qian only has so many methods!"

"When it comes to cavalry, my Great Chu Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is invincible!"

"Follow me and charge toward the place where the Da Qian dragon banner is!"

"Whoever captures that Da Qian Empress alive will be enfeoffed with ten thousand households and rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold!"

As the words fell, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry beside Chu Kuang all revealed bloodthirsty expressions.

Crazy!

Such a reward was enough to make people forget life and death!

The distance between the two sides arrived in an instant!

The Great Chu Tiger and Leopard Cavalry looked disdainful, looking with extreme contempt at the elite cavalry guarding the Da Qian Empress.

What kind of trash is this, and they dare to clash with them?

Just standing there, if they let Da Qian slash them a dozen times first, could they break the leather armor on their bodies?

But if they slashed once, could Da Qian withstand it?

"Come, slash at your grandfather here!"

A Great Chu Tiger and Leopard Cavalry soldier looked disdainful, pointed at his chest, and sneered at a Da Qian soldier holding a Mo saber.

The next second.

The blade light flashed, bringing up the bright red blood of this Great Chu soldier!

This Great Chu soldier was very young; one slash later, he fell down and went to sleep.

His eyes were wide open, as if he died with a grievance.

He didn't understand why the leather armor that could withstand a dozen slashes before couldn't withstand one slash now?

This Da Qian strong man looked disdainfully at the corpse on the ground and couldn't help but spit.

Ptooey!

"This is the first time in my life I've seen such an excessive request!"

And scenes like this were everywhere.

The Great Chu Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the elite cavalry led by Wu Zhao had just collided, and the result was shocking.

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was actually being killed and forced to retreat step by step!

Chu Kuang was stunned!

Chu Qingluan was also stunned!

"How is this possible!"

"This is my Great Chu Tiger and Leopard Cavalry; how could they not kill the cavalry inside Changan?"

Chu Qingluan couldn't figure it out, until she saw the Da Qian cavalry slash through the sabers in the hands of her Great Chu Tiger and Leopard Cavalry!

Her eyes widened, and she had a moment of realization.

"This saber!"

"This saber is not right!"

Her face looked ugly; clearly, she hadn't expected that a battle that was clearly a sure win would be fought so unsmoothly.

But Chu Qingluan knew in her heart that she had to win this battle, even if she had to pay a heaven-sized price!

Otherwise, once defeated by Da Qian, the army would collapse all the way, and that would be dangerous.

In an instant, the entire battlefield was plunged into miserable slaughter.

Both sides could be called fighting to the death; no one could retreat a single step!

Although Da Qian had the upper hand in the early stages, as time passed, Great Chu, relying on numbers and combat power, began to gradually turn the situation around!

But just at this moment!

East of Changan.

Three miles away.

On a hilltop.

Nangong Tian looked at the battle situation outside Changan, his face full of shock.

"Good heavens!"

"The army has marched outside the Nine Gates, and the dragon banner has moved forward—shouldn't this be a city defense battle?"

Nangong Tian was stunned.

But now was not the time to dwell on it.

He drew the saber at his waist, his face stern!

"The whole army, listen to the order: kill into the battlefield from the flank!"

"Protect the Emperor and serve the king, slaughter the Chu army!"

Nangong Tian charged out on his horse, roaring with his loudest voice.

"Your subject Nangong Tian leads the Changning Army, specifically here to save the Emperor!"

Following Nangong Tian riding at the front, first a dozen riders followed and killed their way down, and then it was the tens of thousands of Changning Army elites under the hilltop!

They also climbed over the hilltop and followed to kill their way down.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

In an instant, the sound was heaven-shaking.

The Changning Army was like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, charging toward the Chu army!

Chu Qingluan subconsciously looked over; originally, seeing Nangong Tian and the dozen riders behind him, she still looked disdainful.

Just a dozen people—what use could they have? On this battlefield of nearly two hundred thousand people, could they stir up even a ripple?

But the next second, Chu Qingluan's face changed wildly!

Within her line of sight.

Tens of thousands of Changning Army troops were a black mass, climbing over the hilltop and killing straight toward her.

They held Da Qian's sabers high, their faces filled with extreme coldness.

The warhorses galloped all the way, carrying extreme killing intent, the sound echoing across the entire battlefield.

"Save the Emperor!"
