Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1480

Chapter 1480: Chapter 1475: Kill

The sound of the wind stopped, and even the low chirping of summer insects came to an abrupt halt. The world seemed to quieten the moment this woman appeared under the moonlight.

The woman’s cloak fluttered behind her, her long hair tied up atop her head, clad in silver armor that gleamed with a piercing chill. Under the moonlight, her cold and stern face was smooth and fair, her forehead shining with a pearl-like luster. Her entire presence exuded a piercing and restrained murderous aura, her gaze sharp and steady.

"Huying Army, hear my command!" Bai Qingyan slung the Sun-shooting Bow over her back, pulled up the silver spear planted at her feet, the menacing spearhead pointed skyward, her voice resonant, "Those who pass this road, kill!"

Bai Qingyan’s confident and powerful steady tone struck fear into her enemies and greatly boosted the morale of the Bai family’s Huying Army soldiers.

With Bai Qingyan’s command, the ambushed Huying Army on both sides emerged in unison, shooting a rain of arrows towards the Dongyi Army who had just broken out from the Bai family’s encirclement.

The elite soldiers of the Huying Camp beside Bai Qingyan were all battle-hardened warriors. Upon Bai Qingyan’s command, continuous firing of crossbows had worn down most of the defeated soldiers, and then they unsheathed their blades and charged swiftly. Before the fleeing Dongyi soldiers had time to react, they were already brandishing their butchering knives, leaving no room for mercy, everywhere they passed... was filled with screams and blood, giving the Dongyi Army no chance to retaliate.

Bai Qingyan’s white horse reared and neighed, charging into the Dongyi Army. With her silver spear piercing, stabbing, and pulling back to kill, the splattered blood soaked the white fur of her steed below her, the drops of blood trickling down.

Shen Liangyu had been guarding Bai Qingyan all along, but after fighting for a while, he realized that their Young General Bai didn’t need his protection at all. Even after ascending the throne, the Young General Bai’s skills hadn’t waned.

By the time Bai Qingyan and Shen Liangyu had wiped out the fleeing remnants of the Dongyi Army, Cheng Yuanzhi finally dealt with the ambushed Dongyi soldiers and caught up. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Cheng Yuanzhi, seeing Bai Qingyan’s bloodstained silver armor and the ground littered with Dongyi soldiers’ corpses, hurriedly dismounted and clasped his hands in salute towards Bai Qingyan, sighing, "Despite our rush, we still couldn’t catch up!"

"Regroup, bring the wounded back, it’s almost dawn, and now with the Huying Army responding inside the city, they will open the city gates with fireworks as the signal. We must take Liuguan City before dawn!" Bai Qingyan glanced at the Bai family’s soldiers who were carrying the wounded.

"Yes!" Cheng Yuanzhi responded, coordinating with Shen Liangyu to arrange for the wounded to be sent back first.

"These Dongyi Kingdom soldiers are truly too fragile. Before coming, I was prepared for a fierce battle, who would’ve thought... this was too easy!" Cheng Yuanzhi seemed dissatisfied with the lack of challenge, "With this level, it really wasn’t necessary to trouble our Young General Bai to lead personally. We’ve really given the Dongyi Kingdom too much credit, the juniors should be the ones to practice against them!"

"The Dongyi Kingdom has always focused on naval forces, and ever since becoming a vassal state of Daliang, they haven’t fought a war in over forty years. Faced against the battle-hardened Bai family army, defeat was inevitable!" Shen Liangyu stepped on a stone, chewing a rice stalk as he instructed for the quicker transportation of the injured.

Cheng Yuanzhi, hearing Shen Liangyu’s words, nodded in realization, "That’s why Young General Bai dares to claim that upon landing in the Dongyi Kingdom, we will capture the Dongyi capital in three days!"

Soon, the Bai family army regrouped, marching swiftly towards Liuguan City.

Bai Qingyan rode at the front, and as the army was about to reach Liuguan City, she called out loudly, "Launch the fireworks!"

The guards on Liuguan City’s gate saw a red light suddenly shooting into the sky in the dark night. Before they could react to what was happening, someone covered their mouths, and blood spurted from their necks. They fell silently to the ground, not knowing what happened till their last breath.
