As the bugle sounded and the afternoon sun shone, Su Yan mounted her warhorse and rode out of the city gate.
She had barely stepped out when Li Dabai rode out on his warhorse in pursuit.
He held a spear and followed beside Su Yan.
"My life was given to me by you, little brother. If you need me, I'm willing to fight for you!"
His voice was rough and bold, and it sounded quite heroic when he shouted it out at the city gate.
This also inspired the soldiers who were closest to them.
"Leading by example!"
"Leading by example!!"
The soldiers raised their spears and shouted repeatedly.
Su Yan gazed at the thousands of soldiers standing atop the city wall.
A strange feeling welled up inside me.
She had no country to protect.
However, there are things that need to be protected.
Perhaps they are like her.
Her voice was earnest.
I'll try my best.
She did her best to help them protect the country.
Sunlight shines on this vast land.
Su Yan stared into the distance, her eyes stinging from the light.
An hour has passed.
Two hours have passed.
The general's order was delayed.
The enemy forces on the other side were pressing in.
It was pitch black, yet imposing.
I thought the prelude to war was about to begin.
The other party stopped about 100 meters ahead.
It did not move forward another step.
Then, a soldier in black armor rode up on horseback.
Holding the Black Knight.
He arrived before Su Yan, exuding an air of grandeur.
"May I ask, which soldier is Su Yan?"
Su Yan pulled on the horse, while Li Dabai beside her spoke.
"What do you want with your grandfather?"
The black-clad cavalryman paid no attention to Li Dabai's words.

"His Highness has decreed that the decision to stop the war or continue it rests with you, the generals."
Su Yan injured the prince; this grudge must be avenged.
"If you hand over Su Yan, this battle can be avoided."
His voice was loud enough for the people on the city wall to hear.
After listening, Li Dabai angrily rebuked
"Bullshit!"
After hearing what this person said, Su Yan was portrayed as a sinner for all time.
It's clear that if Su Yan hadn't done that last time...
This city had long been annexed by others.
Where are these people now, standing here so peacefully?
Li Dabai understands this, but not everyone does.
Or perhaps they all understand, but compared to the benefits Su Yan brought in the past.
They are more concerned about the war at hand.
If Su Yan is handed over, this war can be avoided.
That sounds like a good deal.
Not everyone in the military camp knew about Su Yan's feat of single-handedly holding off an army of thousands.
The general intended to suppress the matter.
It wasn't even reported to the imperial court.
What I fear most is being surpassed by Su Yan, whose achievements overshadow the master.
By then, won't Su Yan have climbed over his head?
Upon hearing this news, everyone turned to look at Su Yan.
Su Yan didn't speak; she was waiting for the people on the city wall to give the order.
It took about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Finally, a general reached the city wall.
"The general has given the order, approved!"
The sound spread in all directions.
Li Dabai's face turned red with anger.
I was both angry and nervous.
Su Yan spoke to the black-armored soldier.
"I am Su Yan."
Upon hearing this, the black-armored soldier looked him up and down.
"you?"
After saying that, he spoke without any expression.
“Our prince cannot tolerate being deceived. If your Shengyuan Kingdom deliberately tries to fool someone else, then…”
Just wait for the prince's wrath.
After saying that, the black-armored soldier turned around and gestured for Su Yan to follow.
Su Yan rode ahead on horseback, and Li Dabai followed.
Su Yan looked at him
"how?"
Li Dabai patted his chest.
"I'm not afraid, I'll stay with you."
