The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, please send troops to save Shanhe City!"

"Shanhe City is on the verge of collapse!"

"If we don't save them now, they'll fall into the hands of someone else!"

The light cavalryman fell to his knees with a thud.

He was shouting almost with tears streaming down his face.

Instantly, Tuoba Ashina and the eldest prince felt a jolt in their hearts.

Shanhe City is the foundation upon which these barbarians have established themselves in the northern frontier, and a fortress through which they gaze towards the Central Plains. If an arrow is fired, this situation, which has been rare for hundreds of years, will be completely reversed.

"Send the order to sound the retreat!"

Tuoba Ashina gritted his teeth and said.

The eldest prince was still somewhat unwilling, feeling that Yunji City was already in his hands, and this was his chance to severely suppress Tuoba Xiangtai and greatly increase his prestige in the army!

Are you just going to give up like that?!

Can……

What's the point of not giving up?

We have no choice but to obey orders.

Soon, the barbarians who had attacked the city retreated, leaving behind countless corpses, and disappeared without a trace at an even faster pace than when they came.

On the city wall of Yunji, Sun Xiang, who witnessed this scene, was first stunned, then overjoyed: "It must be the General returning to reinforce us."

"Cloudridge City, we've held it!"

This shout ignited the soldiers who had become numb from the war, and in an instant, Yunji City erupted in clamor and uproar.

"We held on!"

"We drove back the barbarians!"

"Those damned barbarians! They dare to dream of setting foot in my Cloud Ridge City? What a load of rubbish!"

……

Su Hong was also in tears.

He repelled the barbarians and made a great contribution.

Now that he's back, the general won't make things difficult for him anymore, right?

The Su family can become a favorite of the general without relying on marriage alliances or currying favor!

Even with heavy burdens, Su Hong can still carve out a brand new world for the Su family!

……

The barbarian army galloped wildly on horseback.

With their large number of light cavalry, their advantages were fully utilized at this time, unlike the frustration they felt under the walls of Yunji City.

It moved with the speed of an arrow.

After traveling for half a day, a pair of mountain peaks appeared before us.

Like two giants, they guarded this wide passage.

However, neither Tuoba Ashina nor the eldest prince cared much.

Or, to be more precise, this place was overlooked.

After all, they arrived without any hindrance.

At the moment, I naturally didn't take it to heart.

As always, the horse galloped past at breakneck speed.

Soon, half of the army had passed through, but at that moment, a thunderous sound seemed to resound from the mountain peak, and the sound of gunpowder exploding rolled as if the sky itself was about to be blown apart.

With this earth-shattering explosion, huge rocks rolled down from both sides of the peaks in an instant, and countless pieces of rock were blasted out of the mountain.

Large and small, rained down in an endless stream.

In that instant, both Tuoba Ashina and the eldest prince's expressions changed drastically.

"We've fallen for their trap!"

"That damned Yu Ren, he's got a hundred tricks up his sleeve!"

But the realization came too late, even after two days.

A small portion of the barbarian army had already passed by, another small portion was at the foot of the left and right peaks, and the remaining small portion was at the rear.

The army was forcibly cut into two or three pieces.

Or like a giant rock or a piece of wood falling from the sky!

In an instant, the morale of the army was thrown into chaos.

The casualties were devastating.

But this is just an appetizer!

Countless soldiers surged out from both sides of the peaks, smashing things down and many of them also shooting arrows downwards.

The army's powerful bows already had a long range, and the downward arrows were even more powerful. Even if the accuracy was not good due to poor vision and angle, the overwhelming rain of arrows still gave the barbarians a good beating!

"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up..."

Under the protection of his personal guards, Tuoba Ashina barely managed to evade some attacks and couldn't wait to shout out.

After all, those running in front were all light cavalry.

It was their greatest asset as barbarians.

But Ren Tianye has been lying in ambush for a long time, how could we let him have his way?

Large numbers of soldiers had been ambushed at the entrances and exits of the left and right peaks. Seeing that the barbarians were fleeing in panic like drowning dogs, what were they waiting for?

"kill!"

"Kill these barbarians!"

"Damn it, you dare come to Northern Xinjiang? Is Northern Xinjiang a place for dogs like you to come?"

"All killed!"

……

The ambush troops were all brought out.

Despite their calculated moves, and with countless casualties among the barbarians below the left and right peaks, the barbarians completely lost the initiative in the war in less than half an hour.

It became a stray dog ​​being hunted down.

Ren Tianye directed the attack from a high vantage point, and the entire army launched a surprise attack.

They fought from dawn till dusk, chasing the barbarians for miles, until the sky darkened, blood flowed like rivers, and barbarian corpses were scattered all over the ground.

but……

Ren Tianye was still not satisfied.

Such a great opportunity is extremely rare.

He had just recruited so many new soldiers, whose combat skills varied greatly and whose morale was not necessarily united. He could use a resounding victory to completely win back the hearts of his generals.

With a wave of his hand, the great banner pressed forward!

"kill!"

The soldiers were already bloodthirsty.

The Northern Frontier and the barbarians are sworn enemies, their hatred running deep. However, because the barbarians have been blocked by the Red Beacon Army at the foot of Shanhe City and have not been able to launch a large-scale invasion, they have not been able to invade the grasslands on a large scale, resulting in relatively few brutal battles in recent years.

Now, we've finally seized the opportunity.

How can we face the brothers who have died and been wounded in the Northern Frontier over the years if we don't cut off more barbarian heads?

How can we express our loyalty to Ren Tianye, the new general, if we don't cut off a few more barbarian heads?

They roared and chased after the barbarians, fighting fiercely!

In reality, the barbarians were not very afraid of being chased.

One of their tactics is quite terrifying: when being chased, they deliberately slow down their horses and wait for the enemy to get close before shooting with arrows.

In this way, the two sides are close together, and their arrows will have a very high hit rate and greater power.

This tactic makes it easy for them to reverse the situation when the war deteriorates.

But now, the situation is completely different.

The army was routed; the soldiers could not find their generals, and the generals could not find their commanders. They were completely scattered.

The barbarians' bravery and fearless spirit were utterly crushed beneath the massive rocks of the left and right peaks.

The barbarian soldiers now had no other thoughts but to regret that their horses didn't have two more legs; they had become sitting ducks.

"Run! Run!"

Tuoba Ashina and the eldest prince ran wildly.

Looking up, I could already see Shanhe City.

A glimmer of hope welled up in my heart.

As long as they can reach Shanhe City, they can use its geographical advantages to escape the pursuit of these Yu people!

And so, things went even crazier.

速度更快。

We finally arrived at Shanhe City.

"Third brother, open the city gates quickly and come to save Father!"

"Third brother, you fucking idiot, why aren't you out saving your eldest brother? What are you waiting for?"

……

The two men ordered the cavalry to shout.

then……

Arrows rained down on the city walls!

……
