Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 80

"Whoosh!" Suddenly, two feathered arrows shot towards each other.
The dark guard stretched out his hand and knocked down one, but the other was blocked by the soldiers on the side because of the angle and position.
"Ding!" Lan Chenyan's sword swept past like lightning, cutting the feather arrow into two pieces neatly.
"Not bad." Su Hanxiao glanced at him in surprise.
It's no wonder that the dark guard commented that "martial arts are good", his swordsmanship, no one can't reach this speed after more than ten years of hard training.
Clean, fast, without any extra fancy movements, just a few basic sword moves, after a lot of practice, back to the basics, in the final analysis, it is just one word... fast.
This is the swordsmanship that the Lan family learned from the battle!
"Of course, I said long ago that my sword is not a decoration!" Lan Chenyan raised her chin proudly.
"I'm just praising you, and I'm turning my tail up." Su Hanxiao tapped him on the head amusedly.
"The enemy is about to withdraw." Lan Chenyan suddenly became serious.
"How do you know?" Su Hanxiao was taken aback, but couldn't see any signs.
"I can't say it, it's like a kind of intuition?" Lan Chenyan thought for a while, then said distressedly, "There is no specific reason, and there is no way to explain why such a conclusion was drawn, but knowing is knowing."
Su Hanxiao couldn't help falling silent.Although Lan Chenyan was not clear and confused, she understood that it was a kind of sensitivity to the battlefield. Originally, only experienced veterans would have such experience, but Lan Chenyan... Should it be said that he is worthy of being the only descendant of the military god Lan?
"Smiling?" Lan Chenyan called out.
"It's okay." Su Hanxiao smiled at him.
At this moment, there was a clear sound of gold clanging from behind the enemy army, and the bloody enemy army on the city wall began to retreat like a tide.
"It's over." Lan Chenyan sighed, looking up at the sky.
The sunset is all over the sky, red as blood.
Between life and death, no one noticed the passage of time. After this slack, they felt that they were already hungry. However, this day's offense and defense must finally be over!
Su Hanxiao couldn't help but smile wryly, it's only been one day, the soldiers are already very tired, and there are still ten days to defend, maybe even longer, can they really make it through?There are 30 enemy troops, and they can take turns to fight, but they can't rest.
"Your Highness." Shui Chuan said while wiping the blood stained on his forehead.
"Thanks for your hard work." Su Hanxiao pressed her shoulder, glanced over, and saw the soldier leaning against the wall gasping for breath. Suddenly, there was a slight warning in her heart. Think first and shout out: "Get up! The whole army is ready for war! It's not over yet!"
Everyone, including Shuichuan, couldn't help being stunned.However, out of trust in the princess, Shui Chuan subconsciously turned around and shouted: "The whole army is ready for war, hurry up!"
Before the words fell, another attack horn sounded from the city.
The retreating soldiers spread out to both sides according to the flags, circled back to the rear army, and tens of thousands of fresh troops rushed forward.
Fortunately, Su Hanxiao reminded him early, the soldiers who had already sat down to take a breath just had time to fill the gap again, and a new round of bloody battle began immediately.
"It's so dangerous!" Lan Chenyan let out a breath, and said in confusion, "How do you know that the enemy will attack again?"
"You guys are so excited about repelling the enemy, you're all slack!" Su Han snorted coldly, "Didn't you see that those ladders weren't taken away? The situation is that they have the upper hand, so there's no reason to send these equipment to us to destroy , the grassland is not so rich!"
"Careless." Lan Chenyan said after choking.
"The one who laughs last is the winner." Su Hanxiao muttered to himself.
"En." Lan Chenyan replied.
Perhaps it was because the strategy was seen through, and if it continued, it would turn into a war of attrition again, and the morale of one's own side was still plummeting. This time, after a short fight, the Chinese army sent another signal for Ming Jin to retreat.
The soldiers on the city breathed a sigh of relief until it was confirmed that the enemy had really withdrawn their troops. This time they were so tired that they couldn't even lift their arms.
"Take a break, and then we will clean up the battlefield." Shuichuan said with a sigh of relief, "This time, I really want to thank Your Highness for the timely reminder."
"Deputy General Shui took the lead in carrying out such an order without reason. I dare not take all the credit for it." Su Hanxiao said with a smile.
"This... Actually, I don't know what's wrong with me, so I did it out of nowhere." Shui Chuan said with some embarrassment.
Hearing this, the generals who heard it around laughed loudly, and the city was relaxed, and the dull atmosphere not long ago was swept away.
"Anyway, it took another day to deal with it," Shui Chuan said.
"By the way, what about the corpses under the city?" Su Hanxiao asked, looking at the militiamen who had already begun to carry the corpses and wash away the blood.
"Wait a while, we and the enemy will each send dozens of people to clean up the battlefield and remove our own corpses." Shui Chuan replied, "This is a common practice in continental wars. Both sides are not allowed to attack the soldiers who clean up the battlefield. Firstly, it is the spirit of humanity. , you can’t let your soldiers expose their corpses to the wilderness, and secondly... if so many corpses are not arranged properly, it will easily cause plague and other diseases. This has been done for thousands of years.”
"Really?" Su Hanxiao frowned, walked away to the city wall, and looked down.
I saw sporadic flames that hadn't been extinguished, broken and damaged siege equipment and rolled logs and stones thrown down from the top of the city were in a mess, and there were many corpses in disorder, including many Dayong soldiers who fell from the city or were dragged down, but there were more They are all prairie coalition forces.After all, those who attack the city suffer much more than those who defend the city.
"What is Your Highness looking at?" Shui Chuan followed her gaze, but found nothing strange.
