"Just keep an eye on the princess! I'll be back soon!"
Seeing that the red tassel spear blocked the sharp arrow, Jiang Qianruo could no longer hold back and rushed towards the fighting area in the center of the battlefield.
When she saw the arrow heading towards Zhou Yue just now, her heart was pounding fast and her hands reacted before her brain.
She moved so quickly that Song Ruqing had no time to reach out to stop her.
Mr. Huang was not surprised by this result at all. He sighed and said, "You are still so impatient!"
Ten guards formed a circle and protected Tang Qingfeng, Song Ruqing and Huang Lao in the middle, and each of them was covered in blood.
Song Ruqing sat on a chair, holding a bow and arrow and shooting with a serious face.
He looked extremely calm on the surface, but in his heart he was anxious and wanted to stand up immediately and carry his sword to the battlefield.
Although the Red Sleeves Army had far greater perseverance and endurance than ordinary soldiers, the enemy had too many people. These barbarians were also strong and their endurance and perseverance were not much inferior to theirs, and their numbers far exceeded theirs by several times.
It would not be good for them to continue like this.
Even if they fight to the death in the end, how many of the Red Sleeves Army will be left?
The more anxious she was, the colder her face became. She watched Jiang Qianruo grab two people with his bare hands and knock their heads together.
The two human brains were like ripe fruits, with brain matter and blood spurting out at the same time.
Song Ruqing had seen all kinds of disgusting scenes on the battlefield, but he still shifted his gaze and looked at the nearby back mountain and the village with flames everywhere.
If the reinforcements did not arrive in time, they could only find a way to lure all these barbarians together and set fire to the mountain.
"vomit!!!"
Tang Qingfeng is now regretting it so much that his intestines are turning green.
He didn't expect that he would encounter this incident just after arriving at the border and before he had time to rest for two days.
That would have been fine, but he didn't expect that with just a casual glance, he would see that his uncle's methods were so... so bloody.
Huang Lao kicked him in disgust. "What are you vomiting for?! I think you've had too much of a good time in Kyoto. You're being so pretentious! Hold it in!"
He frowned as he watched more and more Red Sleeves soldiers get injured. Even the bravest Zhou had inevitably been stabbed twice. "We can't go on like this. We have to find a way to save them!"
If this continues, won’t the Red Sleeve Army be wiped out?
What's the point even if reinforcements arrive?!
Song Ruqing knew she couldn't wait any longer. Just as she was about to stand up and give orders, her legs fell down again weakly. A trace of hatred flashed across her face.
She blew the whistle around her neck.
Upon hearing this order, the Red Sleeves Army all moved towards Song Ruqing. Zhou angrily glared at Wang Yitian, who was completely protected by a wall of people. "Bah! Coward!"
Jiang Qianruo grabbed two knives from someone else and quickly rushed to Zhou's side. He looked at her with concern and asked, "How are you?"
Zhou watched her chop and slash with the knife, the knife in her hand moving like an arm, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "You are really good with the knife!"
A hint of smile appeared in Jiang Qianruo's eyes: "I'll cover you, you retreat."
"Together!"
After saying that, the two men attacked together, fighting and retreating at the same time, one with a knife and the other with a hammer, their momentum was surprisingly similar.
Wang Yitian gnashed his teeth as he looked at Zhou and Jiang Qianruo: "These two must be eliminated!"
Tielan quickly retreated back to Song Ruqing's side: "What should we do next?"
"How's things going in the village?"
"They are all at the Ji family! There are two groups of people over there. Aying captured the young Khan of the Tatars and went over there to confront the Oirat people."
Song Ruqing's heart sank. "She won't hold out for much longer. Gather at the Ji family! Lead all the barbarians to the mountain!"
"yes!"
Tielan wiped the blood off her face, carried Song Ruqing on her back and retreated.
She blew the whistle again, and a group of people fought and retreated as they rushed towards the Ji family.
When Zhou saw that it was the direction home, she suddenly became alert and a look of joy appeared on her face. She held the hammer in her hand harder and looked at the six spears coming at her. She pressed it down with one hammer and smashed the heads of the people around her with her other hand.
Suddenly my brain flew everywhere.
Jiang Qianruo held two big knives in his hands. Looking at the spears that were coming at him, he pressed them down and turned to stab them in the air. He rolled on the ground and slashed in a circle with the knives in his hands, separating the surrounding barbarians from their upper bodies below the waist.
If she had a little less strength, the knife in her hand would not be able to do this.
However, the blade of the knife in her hand soon became blunt.
Zhou couldn't help but feel a bit fond of her, but also a bit competitive. She eagerly swung the sledgehammer at the next wave of people, wanting to prove that she was stronger: "I'm also very strong!"
Wang Yitian saw this and said sullenly: "Let go!"
Dense arrows shot towards them.
"careful!"
Jiang Qianruo's face changed drastically when he saw the rain of arrows flying towards him. He grabbed a man and strangled him to death. He grabbed the corpse's waist and spun around like a shield to block the two men.
Seeing this, Zhou quickly grabbed someone to block the other side, looking at Jiang Qianruo with some fear: "Thanks to your quick eyes and hands! Otherwise, I would have become a sieve!"
Jiang Qianruo's face was stern: "The enemy's arrows are too powerful, let's retreat!"
The same went for Song Ruqing and the others. At this point, everyone was only concerned with the arrows in front of them and couldn't pay attention to others at all.
“Da da da!!”
The clear sound of horse hooves and the slight vibration of the ground were now clearly heard by everyone.
From the direction they came from, Song Ruqing judged that it was reinforcements.
She perked up: "Reinforcements are here!"
The sound of horse hooves distracted Jiang Qianruo briefly, but Zhou saw something flying towards the two of them out of the corner of her eye. Without thinking, she pulled Jiang Qianruo behind her and used the corpse to block herself.
But unexpectedly, the power of these three arrows was far beyond that of the previous arrows.
"puff!"
Zhou's face turned pale. Because her head tilted, an arrow brushed past her face and shot the person next to her, killing him.
The other two arrows pierced the body in front of her and continued forward, piercing her shoulder and ribs.
Jiang Qianruo looked at this scene in disbelief and shock, and with trembling arms he stepped forward to support her: "Zhou... Yue?!!"
“Senior Brother!! Senior Brother——”
Jiang Qianruo embraced Zhou's fallen body and turned his head to frantically look for Mr. Huang.
Zhou's face was as pale as paper, and the wound on her shoulder made her feel that the hammer, which was usually as light as a feather, now seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
Her grip loosened and the hammer fell to the ground.
