“Report! Report!”

A Northern Yan soldier rode on a horse and dashed all the way to the county office. He couldn’t even stabilize his horse and couldn’t wait to get off.

The few generals guarding Jia County were sitting in the backyard and letting the women in the county office set up a grill to roast meat. One of them even used the back of a woman as support for his feet, forcing her to kneel in the cold snow while trembling.

“Report—”

The Northern Yan soldier staggered into the courtyard. When he saw this scene, he did not have time to be stunned. He immediately panted and said, “General! There’s an enemy attack!”

The person he called General was the man who had stepped on the back of the woman. His surname was Lu, and he was the leader of the garrison in Jia County.

Not only did he not panic when he heard this, but he also glanced at the panicked soldier indifferently. “Where did the enemy attack from?” The two deputy generals at the side teased.

“Qin Canglan and Leng Kui can’t even take care of themselves. They’re surrounded by our Northern Yan army. Who will attack us at night?”

“Yes, did you make a mistake?”

The Northern Yan soldier said anxiously and fearfully, “It’s absolutely true!

They’re holding the flag of the Great Zhou and wearing the armor of the Great

Zhou. They’re soldiers of the Great Zhou!”

General Lu’s expression turned serious. “How many people came?” The Northern Yan soldier stammered, “I… Initial estimate… is 10,000 troops.”

They didn’t discover it in time. They would be punished if they were questioned. They was scared to death, afraid that they would be beheaded in anger.

The courtyard was silent for a moment. After a moment, a few generals laughed.

It was one of the deputy generals. “What did you say? 10,000? The Great Zhou border can’t even mobilize 2,000 troops now. How can they take out 10,000 troops? It must be some trick!

General Lu’s expression changed. “What?”

Outside the southern city gate of Jia County, Su Xiaoxiao put on her shining armor and rode on a mighty and strong warhorse.

Beside him were Jing Yi and Fu Su, who were also fully armed.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the city tower in the darkness as if it had been swallowed by a huge beast. She raised her hand with determination. “Attack!”

With her order, the horn sounded and the war drums beat. The quiet world was instantly filled with a surging killing intent.

Jing Yi led the first group of people to cover the charge and hit the city gate. Fu Su led another group to build a ladder to climb the city tower.

The Northern Yan soldiers discovered it late. Be it the charging carts or the scaling ladder, they had already successfully entered a safe range. The arrows on the city gate tower could not be shot, and the catapults had lost their effectiveness. They could only carry rocks down with their bare hands. Su Xiaoxiao said as she rode on her horse, “Archers, get ready!”

The first row of archers quickly got into position and drew their bows in the direction of the city tower.

“Fire!”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The arrows that covered the sky and earth formed an indestructible rain of arrows that shot towards the Northern Yan soldiers on the city tower.

Countless Northern Yan soldiers were shot. Some fell to the ground, and some fell off the city tower.

In order to let their arm strength reach ths optimum state, Su Xiaoxiao only shot three arrows per round. After three arrows, the first row of archers retreated, and the second row of archers calmly and orderly went forward to take their positions.

There were a total of three rows of archers who listened to her orders and took turns seamlessly.
