Chapter 788: Victory in the First Battle

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There was no unnecessary nonsense, not even a word of galvanization. However, it was this simple sentence of killing that raised everyone’s morale to the peak. The blood in their bodies was boiling, and the anger in their hearts was burning. There was only one thought in everyone’s minds: Kill.

The sudden change made the well-trained Northern Yan soldiers panic!

They could not help but wonder if this group of people were really scattered soldiers who had gathered halfway. Why did they have tactics, martial arts, and morale?

That was only natural.

Su Xiaoxiao wouldn’t let new recruits who had never been to the battlefield take the lead. The vanguard camp was filled with elites she had selected, many of whom had been under Lord Wu An and Wei Xu. They had been to the battlefield with real weapons.

They were all brave and good at fighting, fearless of death. More importantly, they hated Northern Yan!

The two sides fought.

Su Xiaoxiao’s army went berserk.

Su Xiaoxiao raised her hand and slashed down, reaping countless heads in the blink of an eye. A deputy general of Northern Yan saw that the situation was bad and fled. Su Xiaoxiao raised the golden bow on her saddle without a word and shot mercilessly at the back of his head!

An arrow pierced through the head!

The deputy general did not even have time to scream before he fell off the horse. He was trampled by the Northern Yan soldiers in the chaotic battle, and even his sternum caved in.

General Lu saw that in a few short moments, two deputy generals had already died in this little girl’s hands. He immediately wanted to kill Su Xiaoxiao.

While Su Xiaoxiao was surrounded by three Northern Yan soldiers, he quietly found his way behind Su Xiaoxiao and stabbed toward her back!

Su Xiaoxiao had just blocked the attack of the person in front of her with her sword. General Lu’s shadow was reflected on the blade. She leaned back and lay on the horse’s back before raising her leg to kick his saber away!

General Lu did not expect her to be so fast and powerful. His arm went numb.

When he went to draw another saber from his waist, Jing Yi leaped down from the city tower and cut off his hands!

Blood splattered across Jing Yi’s face.

JingYi did not turn around when he cut his throat!

With the commander and deputy general dead, the Northern Yan army in Jia County was completely defeated. They finally stopped resisting and fled with all their might.

But how could Su Xiaoxiao let them escape?

In a woodshed in the county office, County Magistrate Yuan was tied up and had a cloth ball stuffed in his mouth.

Suddenly, the door was kicked open.

His body trembled. He thought that the people of Northern Yan were going to torture him again.

“County Magistrate Yuan.”

Hearing a familiar voice, County Magistrate Yuan thought that he had heard wrongly. He opened his eyes uncertainly and was blinded by the dazzling sunlight.

When he adapted to the light, he saw Su Xiaoxiao standing at the door in armor and holding a blood-stained sword.

Su Xiaoxiao entered and took the cloth from his mouth.

“Physician… Physician Qin?”

He asked in disbelief, “Have you been captured by the Northern Yan people too? No, you’re wearing armor. They forced you to go to war!”

A bearded man walked in. “What nonsense are you talking about? My boss snatched Jia County back!”

The bearded man’s name was Li Da. He was once a sergeant under Wei Xu and was also a brother of the scar-faced man, Zhang Yong.

County Magistrate Yuan was even more surprised. “You took back Jia County? You chased away the Northern Yan army?” “They didn’t get chased away,” Su Xiaoxiao said. “They were all killed.” County Magistrate Yuan was speechless.

Su Xiaoxiao got someone to untie County Magistrate Yuan. His family had already been rescued and sent back to their rooms.

“Where’s King Liang?” she asked.

County Magistrate Yuan hurriedly said, “I hid His Highness Liang in the cellar and didn’t let the people of Notrthern Yan discover him!”

It was mainly because Xiao Duye had a high fever. He was in a daze like a limp shrimp and kept quiet in the cellar.

County Magistrate Yuan thought that Su Xiaoxiao was here to denounce him and said fearfully, “I’ll get someone to carry His Highness out of the cellar!”

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “There’s no need. Let him stay in the cellar. Watch him carefully. Don’t let him be discovered or come out to cause trouble.”

County Magistrate Yuan was at a loss. That was the King Liang. Was it really fine to treat him like this?

Just as he was about to say this, he saw everyone in the courtyard staring at him, as if they would rush in and hack him to death as long as he made this little girl unhappy. He swallowed. “Don’t worry about that. I’ll definitely take good care of His Highness Liang according to your request.” Su Xiaoxiao left his house and came to the courtyard.

Fu Su led everyone back from cleaning up the battlefield.

“A soldier from Northern Yan wanted to burn the rations just now. Fortunately, I caught him!” Fu Su snorted. “All the yearly tributes that the people of Northern Yan haven’t paid in the past few years have been used as military pay, right? He’s really rich!”

Wei Xun smiled and said, “We collected a lot of rations! In addition, we have armor. All the soldiers in our army can wear armor and equip themselves with weapons!”

This was how zero to hero came about!

Su Xiaoxiao was quite satisfied with her gains on this trip. “Remember to return the people’s things that have been plundered by Northern Yan.”

Wei Xun instantly felt deep veneration. “Yes!”

Su Xiaoxiao continued, “How are the casualties?”

Wei Xun said seriously, “About a hundred people were slightly injured, more than ten were pierced, and five were killed.”

To be honest, this was the least casualties Wei Xun had experienced.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “The families of the buried will be paid three times the standard of the Imperial Court. I’ll go see the injured later.”

Wei Xun bowed deeply to Su Xiaoxiao.

If everyone had followed her previously because of her coercion and temptation, after tonight’s battle, they admired her from the bottom of their hearts.

If there was a war, she would really fight. If there was a need for money, she would really pay.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t know what everyone was thinking. Anyway, it didn’t matter to her whether it was her personal charm or her money.

Zhang Yong came over. His scar was stained with the enemy’s blood, looking cruel and bloody.

Su Xiaoxiao’s expression was calm. “Have you investigated the situation at the border?”

Zhang Yong nodded with a complicated expression. “The Northern Yan army focused their forces on attacking the barbican. Leng Kui took 50,000 troops from the border and went to the barbican to fight.”

Su Xiaoxiao frowned. “Doesn’t that mean Zi Town only has 10,000 troops left?”

Zhang Yong said, “A few days ago, Leng Kui gave Su MO 5,000 people to quell the chaos in Wan City. Therefore, there are actually only 5,000… less, including supplies and logistics soldiers.”

Li Da exploded. “This is too much! How can these people guard Zi Town? Who’s guarding it?”

Zhang Yong glanced at Su Xiaoxiao. “Qin Canglan.”

Li Da fell silent.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Even my grandfather won’t have it easy to defend Zi Town with 5,000 troops.”

Zhang Yong nodded. “Northern Yan sent 20,000 troops to attack the city for three days and three nights. There’s another thing. When Leng Kui left, he took all the rations with him. The soldiers of Zi Town have probably been hungry for three days.”

Killing intent flashed across Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes. “Pass down the order. All soldiers, rest on the spot.. In two hours, force the army! Head to Zi Town!”
