You Broke Off the Engagement with This Prince—So Why Are You Crying?

Qin Qingxue had ambitions higher than the sky. She used Li Ye to become the first female general of the Great Yuan Empire.

After returning triumphantly, she didn’t hesitate for a second before...

Chapter 86 A Small Victory

Large rocks rolled down the slope with great force.

Even with a large shield, it is difficult to block it.

The stone hit the shield with a loud clanging sound.

The person in the front was in trouble as he and his shield were knocked over.

Being hit by a stone, there was a sound of bones breaking.

He died instantly.

The soldiers behind were still resisting with their shields.

With the cushioning of the soldiers in front, the force of the rolling stone was greatly reduced.

But more stones and logs continued to roll down and knocked the enemy down again.

Some smart soldiers ran up the slope and gradually moved forward.

All of this could not be avoided by Dayuan's archers.

He fired a volley at those people, killing many of them instantly.

Marshal Annan was no longer surprised by this, even though the road had turned into a hell and the soldiers were smashed to pieces and screaming in pain.

He stood there expressionless, looking at everything in front of him.

The slope of this road is not very steep. Once you have used up all the boulders and logs, you will no longer be able to resist the attack.

Another general led his troops to continue the charge.

At this time, Marshal Annan spoke up and said, "Ruan Jue, lead your men to find a path from the mountains on both sides and launch a surprise attack.

It would be best to block the retreat of these troops and surround them."

"Yes, I obey your command!"

A general agreed and led his troops out of the camp.

The people he led were very good at climbing, and even though the slope was steep, they climbed very quickly.

Dayuan's generals are commanding the battle with all their strength.

A soldier nearby warned, "General, the enemy has indeed sent troops from the mountain to encircle us.

Then he handed him the telescope!"

The general took a telescope and observed it!

The corners of his mouth curled up into a sarcastic smile.

He sneered and said, "A mere trifle! Your Highness has already anticipated this.

Let them experience the power of an ambush on the mountain.

Keep on beating me hard!

We must not let the enemy rush over!

Archers, look for opportunities to strike. If anyone reveals their shield, I'll shoot them."

"yes!"

Everyone answered loudly, eager to fight.

Although the enemy was numerous, they fought very happily.

The enemy is too far away for bows and arrows to be effective, and you can only passively take the hit.

As long as you have the strength, you can kill the enemy.

Especially the local recruits, who hated the Annan army to the core.

He works without any effort.

They picked up stones and rolled logs and smashed them hard at the enemy.

For a while, the enemy was beaten back step by step. Not only did they not advance a single step, but they retreated a lot, leaving corpses all over the ground.

A moment later, bursts of screams were heard from the top of the mountain.

Marshal Annan suddenly looked up and his face turned ashen.

"We've been tricked. There are ambushes on the mountain too!"

Knowing that the Dayuan army had already made preparations, a sneak attack was impossible.

He immediately drew his sword and gave the order: "All troops, listen up! Charge forward with all your might."

All the Annan troops charged online fearlessly.

Even if he was killed by falling rocks, he wouldn't even look at it.

Anyone who dared to look back or stood there in fear would be killed by the person behind him with a knife.

Only by rushing forward can you have a chance to survive.

Looking at the surging enemy, the Dayuan soldiers moved stones and threw them at them with even greater force.

After a while, all the stones and logs were used up.

The general gave a loud shout: "All troops, retreat immediately. No one can delay."

The troops were called back with a bang.

Everyone turned and ran, not even maintaining formation.

These were all ordered in advance.

Prevent being caught up by the enemy and causing greater casualties.

The Annan army struggled mightily and suffered more than 2,000 casualties before they reached the top of the slope.

I only saw the backs of the Dayuan soldiers leaving.

Marshal Annan was so angry that his face looked so gloomy that water could drip out of it.

"I will definitely annihilate this army completely, leaving no one alive!

keep going!

Scouts are stationed ahead to scout out the area and prevent any attacks."

The rest of the journey went very smoothly.

There were no more ambushes.

There were no more suitable places for ambush on the road.

Soon we arrived at where Li Ye was stationed.

A tall wooden wall has been built outside the woods.

The soldiers drew their bows and arrows, ready to stop the enemy.

When the Annan generals saw this situation, they were almost amused by the anger.

Relying on trees to build a project is simply the stupidest decision.

Without any terrain advantage, it was easy to rush over the several-meter-high wooden fence.

If we don't set a big fire, the whole camp will be burned down and we will be unable to defend it at all.

But the more this happened, the more suspicious Marshal Annan became.

They did not launch an attack immediately.

The enemy was stationed two meters away, ready to attack.

The generals under his command felt very confused.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "General, the enemy is right in front of us, and the defense is very weak. Why don't we take this opportunity to launch an attack immediately?

Our army has an absolute advantage and will soon break through the Dayuan army's defenses and annihilate them all."

"Yes! This is a great opportunity, we can't miss it!"

"What do you know? This Dayuan army dared to take the risk of invading Annan and launching a massive attack.

Their commander is definitely not a fool.

But they set up camp in a place like this, they must have set a trap long ago.

Maybe they can launch a surprise attack from the rear while we are attacking.

If it were you, would you station troops in a place like this?"

The generals present were suddenly awakened.

"That's right! The terrain here is not suitable for defense in any way! Although there is a small city in the rear, the city walls are low.

There is not much defensive capability at all.

Choosing a place like this to station troops is truly foolish!"

"Isn't this clear? If something is abnormal, there must be something fishy!

Immediately send people to search the surroundings and find Dayuan's ambush behind us."

This time, he was obviously much more cautious.

Anyway, we have a huge advantage in military strength, so we are not afraid of wasting time.

Li Ye laughed in his heart when he saw that the enemy was actually stationed there.

Anyway, there is no need to rush as the windy weather has not yet arrived.

The scouts arrived to report the news: "Your Highness, the enemy has sent a large number of scouts to search the surrounding area. Should we launch a counterattack?"

"No, just let them investigate! The enemy is just worried about an ambush.

Only after a thorough investigation will we launch an attack with confidence.

If the enemy still doesn't move at night, we'll find an opportunity to launch a surprise attack," Li Ye said.

"yes!"

The two armies faced each other from a distance, both ready to launch an attack at any time.

After searching for a long time, they didn't find any trace of an ambush.

As more and more people came to report the news.

Marshal Annan was very confused.

Thinking secretly:

"Am I overthinking it? How dare the Dayuan defenders challenge us to a decisive battle in a place like this?"

"General, since there are no ambushes, what is there to worry about?

The sooner we attack, the better!

Take advantage of their carelessness and wipe them out in one fell swoop!"

The generals under his command could no longer bear it and asked to fight.

Marshal Annan nodded slightly: "Alright, send troops to launch an attack and test the enemy first!"
