The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 539: silver armor woman
Chapter 539 Woman in Silver Armor
A thousand light cavalry pointed their bows and crossbows at the sky, and countless arrows whistled out as if they were going to break through the sky, and then flew down rapidly under the rolling black sea of clouds, piercing the heavy shield of the Nanrong. The force was so great that it almost knocked down the heavy shield bearer who was carrying the heavy shield to protect his head.
The most famous troops of Dengzhou Army are their light cavalry archers.
For light cavalry archers, accuracy is not necessary, but speed, and the momentum and strength to launch thousands of feather arrows to force the enemy to not dare to move forward, or even force the enemy to retreat.
Bai Qingyan and Dong Changlan were both clear that they were here to rescue people, not to fight. Their only goal was to rescue Princess Mingcheng of Dayan and bring her back to Dengzhou City, so they only brought their elite light cavalry with them in order to capture the person and leave.
Xiao Rongyan held Princess Mingcheng in his arms and rushed out of the encirclement while his guards were surrounding him. As arrows rained down from the rear and the Rongdi army retreated under their heavy shields, Xiao Rongyan’s guards saw hope and fought even harder with all their might, attempting to carve out a bloody path for Xiao Rongyan.
Swords collided, sparks flew, the maid was shaking, her face was pale, sweat was pouring out, she bit her lips tightly, resisted the urge to switch places with the nanny beside her, tears were flowing like broken strings but she dared not cry out loud, she just pressed tightly on the wound on Princess Mingcheng’s neck, and stuck close to Xiao Rongyan, lowering her head and not daring to look, an arrow whizzed past her ear, she didn’t dare to scream, for fear that if she showed her cowardice… Xiao Rongyan and his group would abandon her.
Seeing that the light cavalry reinforcements had arrived, the Nanrong army had no intention of fighting any longer and ran towards their commander, General Ghost-faced. Seeing this, Xiao Rongyan’s guards and the Nanyan personal guards tried their best to protect Xiao Rongyan and break him out of the encirclement.
Bai Qingyan rode alone and met Xiao Rongyan’s eyes. Seeing Xiao Rongyan, who was covered in blood, holding the Princess of Dayan in a fiery red wedding dress in his arms, she was quite surprised. Why was Xiao Rongyan here? !
Xiao Rongyan came rashly to rescue the princess of Dayan, isn’t he afraid of exposing his identity?
Before Bai Qingyan could think about it, he heard Yue Shi, who was protecting Xiao Rongyan, shouting excitedly: “Miss Bai!”
Bai Qingyan looked back at Dong Changlan, who understood and rushed out with his horse, leading the light cavalry straight to the front and suppressing the Nanrong people with bows and crossbows. Bai Qingyan led the Bai family guards to ride fast to Xiao Rongyan and his party and jumped off.
Seeing Princess Dayan who was still breathing in Xiao Rongyan’s arms, Bai Qingyan’s gaze fell on Xiao Rongyan, who was covered in blood and had injuries on his face.
It was the first time she saw Xiao Rongyan in such a state of disgrace.
Xiao Rongyan’s throat rolled and his voice was hoarse: “Why are you here?”
Bai Qingyan glanced at Dong Changlan, who was leading the team in front. Not wanting Xiao Rongyan to reveal his identity because of Princess Dayan, he reached out to take Princess Mingcheng from Xiao Rongyan’s arms: “Princess Dayan, give me to you, take your people and leave quickly!”
Xiao Rongyan did not reject Bai Qingyan’s move to take over Princess Mingcheng, but just shook his head: “I can’t leave yet, I have to see that Mingcheng is safe!”
Bai Qingyan paused before taking Princess Mingcheng’s hand, then took it back. He looked at Xiao Rongyan with his calm and deep eyes and said, “If you are not afraid of having trouble explaining to the Crown Prince of Jin and the State of Wei, then it’s up to you, but I will definitely take Princess Mingcheng to Dengzhou City! We have an agreement… Even if you are my Bai family’s benefactor, there is no room for personal feelings in front of our family and country!”
After saying that, Bai Qingyan turned around and ordered the Bai family guards: “Escort them back to Dengzhou, and quickly get a doctor to see Princess Dayan! Quick!”
For this kind of injury with heavy bleeding, the sooner it is treated, the better!
As soon as Bai Qingyan finished speaking, he grabbed the reins and jumped onto the horse: “Mr. Xiao might as well think about how to explain that Mr. Xiao is here on the way to Dengzhou. Of course… Mr. Xiao should not think about escaping! Yan State asked for help from our Jin State, and our Jin State will never let the Wei people take the Princess of Dayan away! Or Mr. Xiao is confident that he can take the Princess of Dayan away with these defeated soldiers.”
After Bai Qingyan finished speaking, he kicked his horse’s belly and rushed forward.
“Master?!” Yue Shi breathed heavily, looked back at Bai Qingyan who rode his horse into the killing situation, and then looked at his master, “Master, should we leave or stay?”
Xiao Rongyan slowly put Princess Mingcheng down, looked at her extremely distressed expression and said, “Mingcheng, can you still hold on?”
Princess Mingcheng blinked her eyes, her consciousness was already blurry, but she knew… Jin State came to help and would never let Xiao Rongyan take her away. Instead of letting Xiao Rongyan’s remaining men fight to the death, it would be better to follow the Jin army back to Dengzhou, where there might still be a glimmer of hope.
While Princess Mingcheng was in a daze, she thought of the female general in silver armor and holding a bow and arrow. She thought… that must be Bai Qingyan, the eldest granddaughter of King Zhenguo Bai Weiting, the little Bai commander of the Bai family army!
Princess Mingcheng struggled to look at the blurry figure. She envied Princess Zhenguo very much. She was a girl who fought in wars and was as brave as any man. She became a brave general who frightened other countries with her body. Unlike her…she could only help her motherland solve its problems by marrying a princess.
She also wanted to… fight alongside Xie Xun.
When Princess Mingcheng thought of Xie Xun, tears rolled down her eyes. She tightly clenched the purse in her hand. All she could see was Xie Xun looking at her with a smile on his face. A smile also appeared at the corner of Princess Mingcheng’s lips.
If she couldn’t survive this time, she hoped… Xie Xun would forget her just as she had prayed before getting married!
“We’ve found the person! Retreat!” Bai Qingyan shouted to Dong Changlan.
Dong Changlan responded and led the light cavalry to make a half circle, turned their horses around, and while firing crossbows at the Nanrong army, they galloped back in the direction they came from.
Xiao Rongyan had already carried Princess Mingcheng onto the Bai family guard’s horse. He held the reins with one hand and held Princess Mingcheng’s neck tightly with the other.
Dong Changlan took the lead and rushed to Xiao Rongyan. He was shocked to see that the person holding Princess Mingcheng was Xiao Rongyan. He also saw that Princess Mingcheng had injured her neck, so he did not dare to delay and ask more questions. He hurriedly said, “Go back to the city!”
Xiao Rongyan nodded and quickened his pace.
The Dengzhou Light Cavalry and the Bai Family Guards pulled Xiao Rongyan’s men and the personal soldiers of the wedding procession onto their horses one by one and headed towards Dengzhou City.
Under the escort of the Dengzhou Army, they galloped towards Dengzhou City.
“General!” Dong Changlan’s deputy general called Dong Changlan. Dong Changlan turned around, stretched out his hand to the deputy general, jumped on his horse and retreated.
Dong Changlan turned to look at Bai Qingyan who was still behind and shouted, “Cousin! Retreat!”
Now that they no longer have the crossbow protection of the Dengzhou light cavalry, and are afraid that the Rongdi army will shoot them with arrows, Bai Qingyan wants to buy time for the Dengzhou army.
The ghost-faced general of the Southern Rong emerged from the heavy shield, drew his sword and was about to order the Southern Rong archers to shoot arrows, but he saw the silver-armored woman riding on a tall horse, snatching the spears from the Southern Rong soldiers’ hands, and throwing them out… knocking down a group of Southern Rong soldiers.
Good luck on the first day of the new year. First update! Keep rolling around and asking for monthly tickets…
