Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Su Qing blew up the city gate when she and Ji Shuisheng had agreed on and began a massacre.

The few remaining soldiers of the Wan Family Army in Luo City had been on the run for the past few days. They could not get a good rest during the day or night. The reinforcements sent by the general would arrive tomorrow. Today was the last day. They had waited until the third watch with incredible difficulty. They thought they could survive the night safely, but the explosion blew up their fantasies. They all took their weapons and ran down the city tower.

They saw a masked woman standing at the city gate, looking down at them proudly. Smoke rose from the city gate, and the corpses of the soldiers guarding the city gate lay on the ground. They did not hear the sound of fighting on the city gate tower, but these soldiers guarding the city gate had died silently.

The remaining Wan Clan Army soldiers felt more fear towards this person than any other person. It had even surpassed their fear of the general. Their fighting spirit had collapsed for the first time, and for the first time, they wanted to escape.

How was this a woman? This was the King of Hell!

When the explosion sounded, Ji Shuisheng rushed over with Guo Longjiang and the others. On the way, they went to the Wan Family Army’s camp to rob horses and weapons, then armed themselves with the enemy’s weapons before attacking the enemy.

Ji Shuisheng and Su Qinghui started slaughtering the Wan Family Army in the city. Guo Longjiang and the others had eaten their fill and had the strength to fight, but they were still a motley crew and were not a match for the Wan Family Army.

Fortunately, Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing had blocked most of the Wan Family Army, leaving only a dozen or so for Guo Longjiang and the others to train their actual combat ability.

Su Qing’s spear could destroy thousands of troops, and it could pierce through armor and pierce through the heart. No one survived wherever the spear passed.

Faced with such a powerful opponent, the remaining troops no longer had the heart to resist and began to flee. Ji Shuisheng shouted,

“Traitor, leave your life behind!”

“All thieves die!”

Guo Longjiang and the others also shouted,

“To avenge the late emperor, the old thief of the Wan family is a traitor that everyone should kill!”

These were all taught to Guo Longjiang by Ji Shuisheng while they were eating. His goal was to numb the Wan Family Army and make them think that they were the remnants of Great Xia to avenge their emperor.

Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng shouted as they killed, but they did not kill them all. They wanted to leave some alive to prove that the royalists in the city had left.

Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng brought Guo Longjiang along as they rushed out of the blasted city gates. The fleeing Wan Clan Army watched as the dozens of troops left, but no one dared to chase after them. Even if they did, they would be courting death.

Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng did not run toward Mo City. Instead, they headed towards the capital. They lay in ambush on both sides of the official road, waiting for the Wan Family Army to arrive.

Su Qing had made six bundles of detonators last night. She had cut half of the bamboo in the Su family’s old residence. There was no reason for her to escape to Mo City in a sorry state with these explosives.

Before they left, they had to blow up half of the Wan Clan army that came to attack Mo City to make them feel fear and delay the time to attack Mo City.

On the silent official road, the Wan Family Army marched at full speed, the sound of hooves shaking the earth. The powerful Wan Family Army cavalry was getting closer to Luo City.

“Hurry up, speed up.”

The smell of gunpowder could be smelled from afar. The lieutenant leading the troops gave a loud order. His eyes flashed with a gloomy light. He was determined to kill all the rebels of the previous dynasty.

Su Qing stood on a tree and looked down at the troops running on the official road. When a small part of the troops had passed, she lit the detonators and threw them down. Ji Shuisheng, standing on the opposite tree, also lit the detonators and threw them down. Two bundles of detonators were thrown into the troops of the Wan Family Army, one after the other. The long line of soldiers was blown into two. Corpses flew into the sky, and the horses cried out in shock. The Wan Family Army, who had been arrogant just a moment ago, instantly fell into chaos.

“Don’t panic, don’t panic.”

This was a sneak attack by the enemy. The lieutenant leading the team tightened the reins of his horse and shouted at the chaotic team.

Ji Shuisheng was sure that he was the leader of the army. He took the bow from his back and aimed at him. He shot from above. The lieutenant heard the sound of the wind and hurriedly dodged. He dodged the first arrow but did not dodge the second. The sharp arrow immediately pierced his left shoulder. He fell from the horse in pain, and before he could get up, he was stepped on by a horse’s hoof from behind. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

Su Qing lit another bundle of detonators and threw them at the place where the lieutenant had fallen off his horse. It just so happened that this was a crowded place. Once it exploded, it would affect a large area. No one could escape.

The Wan Family Army suffered consecutive explosions, and their general was missing. They were like flies; some smart ones went to the roadside woods to avoid the blasts. However, there were also ambushes in the roadside woods. Guo Longjiang and the others pulled the traps that Ji Shuisheng had set up beforehand. The Wan Family Army that had just escaped into the woods was shot into a hornet’s nest by the arrow rain that filled the sky.

How many people were there in the forest? The rest of the Wan Family Army dared not charge in, so they could only retreat. The main force threw away their armor and ran back and forth.

Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng threw two bundles of detonators after them, sending these arrogant soldiers to hell.

This battle was a complete victory. They only had a few dozen people but could force back thousands of soldiers.

It was almost dawn. Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing did not linger on fighting, leading Guo Longjiang and the others to retreat.

As the sun rose, the Wan Clan Army that had been forced to retreat was replaced by a deputy general and reorganized. The deputy general led the troops cautiously toward the official road. This time, they were divided into three teams, and they all nocked their bows and arrows. Two teams searched for the rebels hiding in the forest, while the other team raised their bows and arrows and looked at the trees, constantly on guard against the great killing weapon that fell from the sky.

When they arrived at where they had been ambushed last night, they saw the ground filled with corpses and pieces of corpses. This made the remaining Wan Clan Army feel a lingering fear. This was the first time they had fought such a fierce battle, and they were filled with fear of killing weapons.

The team walked slowly because they had to be careful of being ambushed along the way. When they arrived at Luo City, they looked at the destroyed city gate with hideous expressions.

Only a dozen soldiers of the Wan Family Army guarding the city left. They ran down the city wall excitedly when they saw the reinforcements coming.

Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng had already brought Guo Longjiang and the others to Jin City Boundary. Guo Longjiang and the others were highly excited. They had fought the battle last night and felt proud. In the past, they were chased by the Wan Family Army. Last night, they chased after the Wan Family Army.

Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing completely convinced them. That terrifying killing weapon made them fear and feel proud. With this, was there any battle that they could not win?

After entering the Jin City Boundary, Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng brought Guo Longjiang and the others to take a small path to Pearl Mountain. A rebellion required a strong army and strong horses. Weapons were an essential part.

They were going back to Mo City anyway, so they directly brought two carts of weapons back to arm their troops and prepare for a tough battle.

What made Ji Shuisheng feel strange was that Su Qing wanted to bring two carts of iron ore back?

“Qing’er, what do you want iron ore for?”

“It’s useful.”

Su Qing was a person of few words and did not elaborate on her plan with Ji Shuisheng.

With weapons and iron ore, they had to rest during the day and travel at night. When they arrived at Mo City, the large group of people sent by the imperial court had just arrived at the city..
