Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ji Xiaoying entreated Su Qing when she saw the Tartan soldiers charging over again. The crossbow bolts they shot were not strong enough to kill the Tartan soldiers and were a waste of arrows.
Su Qing expressionlessly took the bow that Ji Shuisheng had given her from her back. She aimed the bow at the general of the Tartan army. To capture the enemy, one must first capture the leader. The bows and arrows in her basket were all smeared with poison.
The Cloud-Piercing Arrow was shot out with a whistling sound. The Tartan general below heard the sound of the wind and wanted to dodge, but there were Tartan soldiers all around him, so there was nowhere to hide. The arrow pierced through his heart protection mirror, and the general fell off his horse with a loud cry. His hands and feet twitched, and white foam came out of his mouth. His face turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“It’s poisonous.”
Suddenly, he felt his scalp go numb. He looked up at the city wall and saw that the thin young man was aiming at him with a bow and arrow. The other general saw his comrade being shot and cried out in fear, telling his soldiers to be careful.
Her gaze was icy as if she was the King of Hell who had come to take his life. The general felt fear and wanted to retreat. He did so. He rode his horse back, wanting to retreat to a safe area outside the city protection bridge.
However, it was still not as fast as Su Qing’s arrow. The arrow whistled through the air, and the leader of the Tartan soldiers was so frightened that he turned around and hid under the horse’s belly.
Hiding in the stirrups was his ultimate skill, but it saved his dog life. He did not dare to come out from under the horse’s belly. He only dared to come out after running to the city protection bridge.
“Charge, capture that youth on the city wall.”
The general was so angry that he shouted and ordered his soldiers to capture Su Qing alive. He wanted to know what that powerful thing was.
Su Qing locked her bow again and aimed it at the commander. After confirming that she could not shoot at this distance, she put away her bow and turned to walk down the city wall.
“Big sister.”
Ji Xiaoying and a few other girls hurriedly followed. Their little bit of kung fu was not even enough to protect themselves. Although they had learned many killing techniques from Su Qing, they were only used against ordinary people. Now, they were facing the cruel Tartans.
“Stay up there, and don’t come down.”
Su Qing ordered coldly without turning her head. The few girls who had stepped out quickly retracted their footsteps and anxiously stood on the city wall to watch the battle below.
After Su Qing went down the city wall, she asked Cheng Yu for a horse. Cheng Yu was killing the enemy. When he heard Su Qing asking for a horse, he asked her in confusion, “Miss, what do you want a horse for?”
But there were all the Tartan soldiers outside. Could it be that she wanted to escape? Where could she run to?
“I’ll go and kill their commander.”
Su Qing’s understatement stunned Cheng Yu. Was this girl bragging?
The Tartan soldiers were all outside, and the black mass was endless. It was already difficult for men like them to charge and kill, but she wanted to rush out alone to kill the commander.
“No, it’s too dangerous.”
Cheng Yu firmly refused. How could he let the girl take the risk? There were so many men here.
Moreover, she was a divine doctor. The injured needed her, so he could not let anything happen to her.
Su Qing wasn’t someone who liked to explain. When she saw the horses tied to the posts beside the city wall, she untied one of them and jumped up.
“Make way for me.”
Su Qing shouted at the soldiers blocking the way. The bow in her hand hit the horse’s back. The horse stood up in pain and let out a long cry. The soldiers in front subconsciously made way for her.
Cheng Yu watched anxiously as Su Qing rode out of the city gate. There were Tartan soldiers outside, and only death awaited her if she went out. Why was this girl so willful? Was she not afraid of death?
Ji Shuisheng saw Su Qing riding out of the city and feared she would be in danger. He quickly mounted his vanguard horse and chased Su Qing out of the city gate.
Ji Shuisheng slashed left and right with two blades, while Su Qing only held a bow. If anything blocked his way, he would shoot an arrow. The two of them were too brave, and the speed of the horses was too fast. The Tartan soldiers instinctively dodged and made way for them.
When the general of the Tartan soldiers saw Su Qing charging at him, his expression changed drastically. He raised his scimitar and prepared to fight.
When Su Qing saw she was close enough, she locked his bow and shot an arrow at his head. The arrow whizzed past him, scaring him so much that he hurriedly raised his scimitar to cut the arrow.
However, Su Qing’s second arrow hit him again. The general blocked the first arrow and failed to dodge the second arrow. The helmet on his head was pierced, and he died from poisoning like his companion.
Without their commander, the remaining Tartan soldiers were in chaos. They were like headless flies, not knowing whether to attack or retreat.
Su Qing bent down and snatched the scimitar of a Tartan soldier. She activated her killing mode and rode her horse back and forth, killing her way out.
Ji Shuisheng followed closely beside her and fought alongside her.
The morale of the people in the city was boosted when they saw the two of them being so brave. They rushed out of the city like a tide. Zhong Yong started his favorite game again. He raised his twin hammers and smashed Tartar soldiers’ heads to open a path.
Behind them, Qu Da and the others were also extremely brave. They all had been on the battlefield for a long time. The moment they entered the battlefield, their blood boiled. Cheng Yu was greatly shaken. Wherever his crescent blade went, the heads of the Tartan soldiers would be removed.
The morale of the Tartan soldiers was high. Now that their leader was dead and they were facing these fierce generals like the god of death, they immediately lost the will to attack the city and turned to run back.
When they came, there were thousands of people. Only a few hundred people were left when they escaped, leaving behind a few hundred corpses.
“That’s great, that’s great.”
Cheng Yu was highly excited as he looked at the devastated battlefield. Their side had killed hundreds of Tartan soldiers with almost no casualties. This was impossible in the past.
Su Qing pulled the reins of her horse majestically with her bow and arrow on her back. The horse was incredibly spirited after winning. It stood up and let out a happy cry.
Su Qing seemed to have returned to the battlefield when she was the god of war in her previous life. She gave an order to the soldiers in high spirits,
“Clean up the battlefield.”
Ji Shuisheng looked at the majestic Su Qing, and the love in his eyes flooded like a tide. She was too strong, so strong that even men could not compare.
The soldiers respected the strong, and Su Qing’s bravery and invincibility shocked everyone. No one felt anything was wrong with a woman giving them orders, and they were willing to listen to her.
This time, they seized even more. Money, gold, all sorts of valuable things, dry rations, weapons, horses, cotton clothes, cotton boots …
Good heavens, after a battle, the soldiers had gathered enough cotton clothes, and all their shoes were changed into new cotton boots. They no longer had to starve.
The Great Xia Kingdom’s soldiers were not good at using the curved daggers used by the Tartans. Su Qing remembered that there was a forging skill in her upgrade, so she asked the system to activate the forging skill for her.
She wanted to melt all these scimitars and reforge them into the machetes and spears that the Great Xia Kingdom’s army was good at using.
They needed enough heat to melt iron, but Su Qing was not worried. They had coal to ensure the heat they needed.
As the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, Old General Cheng Yu came over and thanked Su Qing,
“Miss Su, thank you for helping me defend the city.”
“No need to thank me.”
Su Qing jumped off the horse and handed the reins to Cheng Yu. She was about to leave when Cheng Yu called out to her..
