This scene brought a smile to Ling Ba's face.
Huyan Xun snorted coldly in anger.
How come all the subordinates he carefully cultivated turned out to be useless, losing to a woman?
That's right. On the surface, she lost to a man, but in reality, she lost to Qiu Yan.
Gu Xiaoran watched the fight ahead, her eyes shining brightly.
"Mother, will you teach me martial arts from now on?"
"Little Ran has grown up and will protect her mother!"
“Mother doesn’t know martial arts,” Qiu Yan said, keeping a close watch on her surroundings. “However, Mother can teach you close combat. Xiao Ran promised to protect me, so you have to keep your word.”
"Okay, Xiao Ran keeps her word!" Gu Xiao Ran smiled and launched her slingshot into the distance.
Yuwen Xian realized that his subordinates were failing to win, and his face darkened with anger. He ordered his men to move faster and faster, but they were constantly thwarted by Xuanming and Xuanying.
Enraged, Yuwen Xian shot an arrow straight at the two men.
He never imagined that Xuanming Xuanying was a prisoner who had come with him in his prison cart.
He was furious. Why were these two always targeting him?
Xuanming and Xuanying dodged, then simultaneously leaped into the air, quickly knocking Yuwen Xian off his horse.
In an instant, the three were engulfed in a chaotic battle.
Qiu Yan helped along the way.
Gradually, the battle changed from offense and defense to a direct confrontation between the two sides.
When Qiu Yan encountered Feng Chao, Zhang Meng, and Xue Ning again, she saw them attacking together with the Western Rong soldiers, and she stopped in her tracks.
Seeing a barbarian soldier's scimitar thrust straight at Feng Chao, who was only able to block with his bare hands and unable to retaliate, she hurriedly said:
"Feng Chao, protect your head with your elbows, bend over to protect your chest, push him out, and then kick him to control him!"
As Feng Chao listened, he did as instructed. With his final kick, the man was forced to retreat a great distance, fell to the ground, and saw stars.
Then another person grabbed Zhang Meng from behind, grabbing his shoulders and struggling with him for the bow and crossbow.
That's right, Zhang Meng's own bow and arrows were destroyed, so he stole the man's crossbow bolts.
Qiu Yan galloped a few steps and quickly said, "Zhang Meng, release the bow and arrow, and give a side kick!"
Zhang Meng did as instructed, kicking the man to the ground, then snatched the bow and arrows and continued his work.
Seeing Xue Ning locked in a fight with someone again, she said:
"Kick his shin, pull his wrist!"
Because of Xue Ning, the man slid forward and fell to the ground.
Qiu Yan assisted her soldiers along the way, blocking the barbarian troops.
The soldiers were quite clever; they knew to pull the barbarian soldiers off their horses to stop them from firing arrows.
Gradually, this short yet long half-hour finally passed.
Huyan Xun raised his arm.
Boom boom boom, the barbarian soldiers at the hunting wall beat the war drums to signal the end of the battle.
The barbarian soldiers' battle in the hunting grounds, which had been going on for quite some time, came to an abrupt end.
Thump! Yuwen Xian was knocked to the ground by the combined attack of Xuanming and Xuanying.
He was disheveled, with his hair in disarray and his body covered in injuries, looking quite pathetic.
A person's fighting ability is vastly different when they are well-fed compared to when they are hungry.
Yuwen Xian glared angrily at the two men, wanting to get up and fight again, but had to stop because of the sound of the war drums.
"Just you wait!"
He was panting from exhaustion and gritting his teeth in anger.
The remaining civilians could no longer run. They knelt on the ground, deeply grateful to Qiu Yan, Ling Ba, and the other soldiers of Dongjin.
Ling Ba instructed everyone to gather together and rest where they were.
"Count the number of prisoners to determine the outcome!" Huyan Xun gave the order, and the barbarian soldiers rode their horses across the grasslands to search for them. Then, regardless of whether they were alive or dead, they dragged the Western Rong prisoners together one by one.
