Chapter 303 Brothers and Sisters
I am the eagle defending my country, and they are the cheerful and beautiful larks.
Without them, I don’t know what the point of defending our country would be.
It is because of those beautiful, precious and happy people that I feel that all the bloodshed and sacrifices are worth it.
I fought on the vast battlefield, just as they did in their small courtyard, facing the same sky and the same earth, fighting against countless invisible enemies with gleaming gold and silver threads in my hands.
To confront a world that despises them, mistreats them, and yet demands more from them.
The day is tilled by men, and the land is woven by women.
If the sharp arrows of the world pierce the men's bodies and pierce their skirts, they will not just retreat crying like lambs.
They would put down the looms that were supposed to never stop weaving, pick up the shuttles that were supposed to only weave beautiful things, and stab the enemy fiercely.
Thinking of these words in his mind, Yun Chen felt that he had endless energy.
The colorful bracelet wrapped her wrist warmly, giving her unprecedented confidence and courage.
There are 100,000 enemy troops ahead.
Behind her are her brothers and sisters.
She rode forward without hesitation, holding the Blood-Drinking Sword high.
Luojiang's army of 100,000 launched a surprise attack.
The Beijing army was completely routed, with only 40,000 soldiers left after being killed. However, under the powerful command of Huo Gannian, who was in charge of all four directions, they were able to quickly gather together with the 10,000 imperial guards that could be mobilized, and integrate into an army capable of fighting.
The 50,000 troops were led by Huo Gannian, Yun Chen, Cao Fang, Meng Jianyun and Duan Jie, and attacked from the north of the city in five directions.
As a pioneer, Yun Chen led the team and took the lead, fighting in the front.
No matter whether the front is the Luojiang guerrillas who are as tall and strong as bears, or the thorn shield camp that is capable of both offense and defense.
Wherever Yunchen went, he charged forward recklessly, without looking back, breaking up all the enemy's defenses and creating extremely powerful offensive conditions for the rear troops.
Su Zhengyang and the 10,000 imperial guards who were guarding the palace and who must not be mobilized, as well as the noble ministers, stood on the imperial city to watch the battle.
Outside the north of the city, the sound of killing shook the earth and the horses galloped like thunder. Everyone felt their internal organs trembling, and their bodies were covered with goose bumps. They were so terrified that they could not speak.
Su Zhengyang's eyes were always looking at Yun Chen from afar.
The distance was too far to see clearly, but he saw that the pure black dragon in the water was really like a swimming dragon, shaking its head and tail, charging fiercely in the Luojiang army, and breaking up the phalanxes one by one.
The pink skirt fluttered on the black dragon's back, and heads fell to the ground wherever it went. In the end, it frightened the Luojiang soldiers so much that they formed a circle and dared not move forward.
Su Zhengyang couldn't describe the shock in his heart.
This battle lasted from dusk to dawn.
Although the Luojiang soldiers were brave, they fought recklessly and without any rules. They were quickly defeated by Huo Gannian's deployment and fled in panic to the snow-capped mountains.
The people of Kyoto City stayed awake all night.
Listening to the deafening cries of killing outside the city, people huddled together in their homes, trembling.
When the trumpets of victory sounded outside the city, people finally breathed a sigh of relief and cried bitterly as if they had survived a disaster.
People spontaneously walked out of the city gate to greet the soldiers who had fought all night to protect them.
Originally, people wanted to cheer and applaud.
But when people saw those soldiers, who were not much older than their own children, passing by covered in blood, carrying their dead comrades in their arms, they could no longer cheer.
Because he killed the most enemies, Yun Chen rode in front as usual.
As we walked from the city gate to the palace gate, people stopped on the street to watch. Everyone's face was filled with excitement, gratitude and heartache.
Yun Chen saw Song Qiaoqiao and Lan Qian standing in front of the Earl Song Lu’s mansion and waved to her happily.
She saw a long string of firecrackers hanging at the door of the Huo Gang, which showed that they were waiting for a celebration.
At the gate of the Major General's Mansion, the guards and servants who had rarely seen their master gathered together, pointing in her direction and proudly saying to others:
"See? That's our general! Our general is busy fighting! He doesn't mean he doesn't want us anymore!"
Yun Chen saw that Miss Cao was also in the crowd. She seemed to have suddenly forgotten the etiquette and rules, and stood in the street with the servants and maids in the mansion, looking at Yun Chen with tears in her eyes.
Beside Miss Cao, a little girl who looked only ten years old gently shook her hand and asked:
"Sister, who's walking in front? It looks like a woman."
Miss Cao swallowed the sob in her throat, straightened her chest slightly, and said seriously:
"That was our Nan Country's first female general. Remember, her name is Yun Chen."
