Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The rations that Long Ling had brought from the capital were between the north and west gates. He initially thought the two teams would be able to protect the rations safely, but when he suddenly heard someone charging from behind the army, he thought this person was there to burn the rations.

What would his soldiers eat and drink if they ran out of food? Without food or water, he would lose combat strength in a few days.

Therefore, Long Ling could not be bothered to arrange for people to attack the city. Protecting the rations was more critical.

Who is it?¹

It was Zhong Yong. Zhong Yong had rushed to Luo City from Mo City and saw Luo City surrounded by the Wan Family Army. He had to kill his way in if he wanted to enter the city. Zhong Yong was brave and angered by the Wan Family Army, who bullied him to the gate. He rode alone towards the city gate.

His strength was extraordinary, and his iron hammers danced with the wind. At first, many Wan Clan soldiers surrounded him, wanting to capture him alive, but they could not stop Zhong Yong, who was like a fierce tiger descending from the mountain.

Zhong Yong was in high spirits. He rode his horse and charged through the Wan Family Army as if he had entered an uninhabited land. He ran to the city gates several times before turning around and charging back. The Xiao Family Army on the city walls reported the situation to Xiao Zeyu.

Just as Xiao Zeyu was about to lead the too suicide squads to burn the rations, he heard the soldiers report that someone was attacking the Wan Family Army camp from behind. Worried that it was a trick from the enemy, he brought his men to the top of the city wall to look down. It was dark, and he couldn’t see clearly but heard Zhong Yong’s voice.

“Bastards, eat Grandpa’s hammer!”

“My good brother is here.”

Xiao Zeyu’s lips curled into a smile, but he immediately became worried. No matter how brave Zhong Yong was, there would be times when he was outnumbered. At that time, his good brother would be in danger.

“Men, open the city gates.”

The plan didn’t change as quickly. They had initially planned to take advantage of the Wan Family Army’s relaxed defenses during the new year, and Xiao Zeyu would bring his men to burn the Wan Family Army’s rations. Starving them for three to five days would make them lose their ability to resist. Then, he would bring the Xiao Family Army out to wipe them out in one fell swoop.

He hadn’t expected the Wan Family Army to choose tonight to attack, but this didn’t affect Xiao Zeyu’s plans. Attacking the city meant their attention was focused on attacking, and the rations would be lax. This was an excellent opportunity to sneak attack and burn the rations.

Who would have thought that Zhong Yong would arrive at such a crucial time and fight fiercely? He would attract the attention of the Wan Family Army. Xiao Zeyu had to end this quickly and not give the Wan Family Army time to react.

“Open the city gates.”

Xiao Zeyu quickly walked down the city walls, leading a hundred suicide squad members to mount their horses and rush out of the city gates. In the city, Xiao Zeyu gave the order only to bring three suicide squad members to burn the rations and the rest to help Zhong Yong.

Zhong Yong’s arrival also had an advantage. Xiao Zeyu could take advantage of the chaos to burn the food secretly.

At the same time, Long Ling sent out a large group of soldiers to protect the rations, but there was still a small time gap between them and Xiao Zeyu. When Xiao Zeyu and his men arrived, the Wan Clan Army guarding the rations hurriedly rushed to meet the enemy. To end the battle quickly, Xiao Zeyu threw a grenade at the Wan Clan Army guarding the rations. With an explosion, Xiao Zeyu rode his horse into the rear and splashed the tung oil in his hand on the camp and carriages filled with rations. The three soldiers following closely behind him quickly threw the torches in their hands.

Whoosh! The grain that had been soaked in the tung oil instantly caught fire. In an instant, the flames soared into the sky. Xiao Zeyu did not stop. After burning the grain, he immediately led three soldiers back. As he ran, he brandished the spear in his hand. As he galloped, he picked up the soldiers who had come to stop him and threw them out. The warhorse also had intelligence. When it saw its master throw someone to the ground, it would step on them twice. These three people were like hot water, and no one could stop them.

Just as Xiao Zeyu led his men out of the encirclement, he saw the Wan Family Army rushing over from the east side to provide support. There were many of them, and fighting shook the sky. Xiao Zeyu took out a grenade and threw it over. The explosion sent the Wan Family Army running in front, flying into the sky.

Xiao Zeyu led his men and quickly retreated to the main entrance to meet with Zhong Yong. They saw Zhong Yong being surrounded by the Wan Clan Army. Someone threw a metal net at him and pulled Zhong Yong down from his warhorse. The situation was highly critical.

He was a fierce general, after all. Even though the net covered Zhong Yong, he did not lose half his strength when he pulled down the horse. With force, he pulled the soldier who was grabbing the corner of the iron net to the front and tore the net apart with a struggle. Those soldiers did not want to capture him alive when they saw how fierce he was. They raised their weapons and rushed forward, wanting to stab Zhong Yong to death.

Seeing that Zhong Yong was about to lose his life on the battlefield, Xiao Zeyu rushed in with his men. The spear in his hand flipped back and forth, knocking off the soldiers’ horses surrounding Zhong Yong, saving Zhong Yong.

“Big brother.”

Zhong Yong saw that Xiao Zeyu was grinning from ear to ear. His cotton robe was already dyed red with blood, and his face was also covered in blood, causing Xiao Zeyu’s heart to skip a beat. ‘Was his brother seriously injured?’ “Don’t linger in battle. Return!”

However, he had no time to worry about it at this moment. Xiao Zeyu loudly ordered, and with a backhand spear, he threw off the horse of the Wan Clan Army beside him, ordering Zhong Yong to mount his horse and kill his way back.The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Seeing a suicide squad member getting stabbed and falling off his horse, Xiao Zeyu went over and swung his spear in a circle to beat back the Wan Family Army general. He pulled the injured suicide squad member onto his horse and shouted for them to retreat.

Those dare-to-die squad members who were entangled in the battle fought desperately. Xiao Zeyu and Zhong Yong charged forward to rescue them. When they reached the city gates, the Wan Family Army also rushed over. Opening the city gates at this moment was extremely dangerous, so they pitifully let the Wan Family Army into the city.

But Xiao Zeyu and Zhong Yong would die without a burial place if they didn’t open the city gates. The situation was extremely urgent.

The Xiao Family’s army in the city had received Zhang Jinglin’s orders. When the young master returned, they had to immediately open the city gates and bring troops out to rescue him. Therefore, even when the Wan Family’s army was at the city gates, the Xiao Family’s army still bravely opened the city gates to rescue Xiao Zeyu.

Xiao Zeyu rode his horse at full speed. Seeing that the Wan Family Army had arrived, he threw out another grenade. The Wan Family Army had already seen the power of the grenade. They were so frightened when they saw something flying in the air that they hurriedly fled in all directions. However, in the end, many of them were still injured.

Xiao Zeyu threw out a real grenade, and the rest of the Xiao Family Army’s suicide squad threw stones. When they saw something flying over, the pursuers were scared and ran around. Xiao Zeyu and his men successfully returned to the city. A small portion of the Wan Family Army chased them into the city, and the gates closed behind them. These people were so scared that their expressions changed.

Wasn’t this like closing the door and beating the dog?

“Kill them.”

Xiao Zeyu sat on his horse with a cold expression as he gave the order not to leave a single one alive. The city did not have any extra food to feed these beasts, and those Wan Clan soldiers who struggled desperately could not escape the fate of being beheaded.

This battle was a narrow victory, but Xiao Zeyu’s back was already drenched in cold sweat. If it weren’t for the grenade that Qing’er had given him, he wouldn’t have been able to survive today.

Out of the too members of the suicide squad, only 80 or so remained, with 16 of them dead. The surviving soldiers thanked Xiao Zeyu for risking his life to save them and swore eternal loyalty to their young master.

Xiao Zeyu brought Zhong Yong back to the main tent.. The first thing he did was to check his injuries!
