Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1479

Chapter 1479: Chapter 1474: Vigilance

Shen Liangyu followed Bai Qingyan and didn’t ask much. Glancing at the distance from here to Liuguan City, where the city gates’ lights could already be seen, he understood what Bai Qingyan intended to do.

The distance from here to Liuguan City only allowed visibility of a cluster of lights. Liuguan City couldn’t see this place unless a fire was started here; otherwise, Liuguan City wouldn’t know anything.

Their Young General Bai was planning to block those soldiers from Liuguan City, ambushed by the Bai family army led by Cheng Yuanzhi, who were trying to return to Liuguan City to report.

Shen Liangyu watched Bai Qingyan, who had ascended to the throne yet still lay in ambush with these soldiers, and felt that their Young General Bai belonged on this battlefield, rather than in the scheming royal court.

It wasn’t that Shen Liangyu thought Bai Qingyan was a poor emperor, but he knew that their Young General Bai surely preferred the battlefield, as did all the sons and daughters of the Bai family.

However, as the eldest daughter of the Bai family, Young General Bai wanted to become the protector of the Bai family’s descendants, the Bai family army, and every soldier of Zhou. Hence, she chose the royal court, allowing them to gallop to their hearts’ content, preventing the patriotic soldiers from being harmed by plots and suspicions from their sovereign.

He had seen Young General Bai on a fast horse with a silver spear, leading the charge, and he knew that Young General Bai was born for the battlefield.

"Send ten people to guard the east gate; do not let people from Liuguan City report back to the Dongyi Capital!" Bai Qingyan turned and said to Shen Liangyu.

"Yes!" Shen Liangyu responded.

Soon, the gates of Liuguan City opened, and the general leading the troops galloped out, followed by soldiers in armor, holding golden spears, marching quickly towards Guadu City.

Bai Qingyan and Shen Liangyu’s men stayed put, allowing reinforcements to pass, with Shen Liangyu already itching for action.

She glanced at Shen Liangyu, smiling, and said, "Don’t worry, you’ll have your battle to fight..."

Shen Liangyu chuckled, "Following Young General Bai, of course there will be!"

Bai Qingyan smiled and then asked, "I heard from Cheng Yuanzhi that you envy Liu Pinggao for having someone close to serve him. After this battle is over and we return to Dadu City, I will personally handle the marriages for those of you who haven’t taken wives yet."

If his father were still around, he would surely worry about their marriages; the upheavals over the years have delayed them.

"I’ll follow whatever Young General Bai says!" Shen Liangyu awkwardly scratched his head.

Soon, the Bai family soldiers stationed to monitor Cheng Yuanzhi’s ambush returned and said to Bai Qingyan: "Young General Bai, the Dongyi army was caught off guard by us. The combat readiness of the Dongyi soldiers isn’t great, not even as good as the most ordinary Zhou army. Our Bai family army finds it easy to deal with them!"

The soldier spoke with a tone of pride, although somewhat exaggerated, it wasn’t far from the truth.
