The golden dragon banner swayed like a candle in the wind, which could go out at any time.

The two sides in the fierce battle will not stop until one dies!

One of them fought hard to kill the Empress of the Great Zhou!

One is to protect the Queen of Great Zhou and fight to the death!

The screams of killing, mixed with the smell of blood, interweave to create a scene of hell on earth.

Seeing that the Queen of Great Zhou was not far in front of them, the Qin soldiers were like chicken blood, charging forward recklessly.

The imperial guards around the Empress of Great Zhou knew that the enemy had more people and more power, but they still risked their lives to protect her in the middle of the opponent.

But the main force of the Great Zhou was transferred to the main streets by Xue Huaide, and they had no reinforcements at all.

Wu Zhao looked at the imperial guards who kept falling, and a look of determination appeared on her delicate face.

She knew that she had to take action, otherwise she would die here today!

If she could hold out until reinforcements arrive, maybe she would still have a chance of survival!

"Qing'er, fight with me!"

Ignoring Shangguan Qing'er's persuasion, Wu Zhao spun around and turned into a shadow before rushing into the battle group.

Chu Ningsong swung the Yuchang sword in his hand, and the magical weapon that could cut through iron like mud actually cut off all the Qin army weapons in front of him!

With another swipe of his backhand, six Qin soldiers fell to the ground and died with screams.

Seeing this, Chu Liji sneered: "If you can kill six people, can you kill sixty or six hundred people?"

He spun the sword in his hand, and with a burst of momentum, he roared, "Personal soldiers, follow me and kill her!"

Suddenly, a group of people rushed towards Wu Zhao.

But Wu Zhao was not afraid at all. She waved her sword and attacked proactively.

Seeing this, the imperial guards behind him immediately rushed forward to protect their empress.

For a while, the two sides fought fiercely.

Wu Zhao was well aware of the importance of this battle. In order to find a strategy to defeat the enemy as soon as possible, she deliberately sought out Chu Liji and wanted to kill him first.

But Chu Liji, holding a sharp sword, seemed to see through Wu Zhao's intention. While avoiding fighting with Wu Zhao with weapons, he continued to cooperate with the imperial guards to attack Wu Zhao.

He had already seen the power of the magic weapon in Wu Zhao's hand and did not dare to clash with it easily.

However, as the number of imperial guards around Wu Zhao continued to decrease, Wu Zhao was also in danger.

At this critical moment, a cavalry suddenly rushed in from the city gate!

"Kill!"

"Come on!"

The sudden appearance of the cavalry disrupted the Qin army's formation, catching them off guard and causing them to fall down in an instant.

"Where...where did these cavalry come from?"

Chu Liji was horrified. He thought that the Qin cavalry and the Chu cavalry had decided the winner, and the Chu cavalry sent troops to support.

But on second thought, the Qin cavalry was very powerful, even if it was not low, it was impossible for them to be eliminated so quickly by the Chu cavalry.

Surprised, Wu Zhao actually asked, "Whose subordinates are you?"

The leading Chu general Chen An laughed loudly and said, "Your Majesty the Queen of the Great Zhou, I am a subordinate of the Crown Prince of Chu, and I am here to protect you on the orders of the Crown Prince."

When Wu Zhao heard that it was someone specially arranged by Chu Ning, she finally felt relieved.

"very good!"

Wu Zhao's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and she pointed the sword in her hand at Chu Liji: "Kill this man immediately!"

Chen An laughed: "If we can kill the Chu army, I will have made a great contribution!"

After he finished speaking, he waved the spear in his hand and charged forward with the cavalry.

Although this cavalry unit only has about a thousand people, they are cavalry!

Even though the terrain inside the city is not wide, it is wide enough for cavalry to charge.

Although the Qin army was powerful, they could only be slaughtered when facing cavalry.

The cavalry rushed out and the Qin army formation collapsed instantly.

Chu Liji had a gloomy face, he knew that his plan had failed.

But he was unwilling to fail like this.

He still wants to give it a try.

"The front troops will stop them, and the personal guards will follow me to kill Wu Zhao!"

Of course he couldn't stop her, but as long as he could delay the time, he could take his personal guards to kill Wu Zhao.

But at this moment, when the imperial guards around Wu Zhao saw that they had reinforcements, they immediately burst out with powerful fighting power.

For a while, the two sides fought bloody battles and reached a stalemate.

Although Chu Liji and his men charged several times, they still found it difficult to break through the defense of the imperial guards.

On the other hand, Chen An outside had led the cavalry to break the Qin army's formation into pieces, and had already killed Chu Li Ji.

"Damn it!"

Chu Liji was furious: "Gather the troops, quickly gather the troops and stop them!"

At the same time, he did not forget to urge the soldiers around him: "There are not many people around Wu Zhao, rush over and kill her!"

Unexpectedly, Chen An sneered when he heard this: "If you want to kill the Queen of Great Zhou, ask the spear in my hand first!"

The cavalry rushed forward like a torrent of steel. Even though the Qin army fought desperately to resist, they were still overwhelmed by them.

Chu Liji's personal guards, who were in a fierce battle, suddenly felt a murderous aura coming from behind them. They turned around and saw that the cavalry had already arrived.

Amid the shouts and cries of killing, dozens of guards fell.

Chen An rushed to Wu Zhao and saluted: "I am sorry to have frightened Her Majesty the Empress of the Great Zhou!"

Wu Zhao shook her head slightly: "It doesn't matter, as long as I can kill Chu Liji and destroy the Qin army, what does it matter if I suffer this little?"

"However, how could your prince have predicted that I would be in danger and specially arranged for you to come and rescue me?"

Although she felt a little touched that Chu Ning was still thinking about her even though he was poisoned, she was very confused.

Chu Ningyuan was in Hecheng, how could he possibly know the battle situation here?

But Chen An explained: "His Highness didn't know you were in danger, but he felt uneasy about you leading the army in person, so he specifically instructed me to protect you in secret."

That's it!

Chu Ning had indeed made arrangements in advance, but he didn't know the situation here and was just simply worried about her.

At this moment, the softest part of her heart was touched, and for the first time in her life she felt Chu Ning's love for her.

In the past, she was the empress and Chu Ning was the crown prince of Chu. Although they had physical contact and had children, she could never feel Chu Ning's feelings for her.

But at this moment, she felt it.

However, now is not the time for sentimental things!

He narrowed his eyes, looked at Chu Liji who was still directing the battle not far away, and said coldly: "The Crown Prince of Chu is thoughtful, I will thank him in person next time!

But now, let's kill this man first!"

But Chen An smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, General Xue has already sent someone."

As soon as he finished speaking, shouts of killing were heard in the distance.

Xue Huaide rode his horse and led a group of soldiers to charge forward.

Amid the whistling sound of sharp arrows, the Qin army was shot and killed one after another.

At the same time, Chen An also led his troops to attack the Qin army. The two sides, one on the left and one on the right, actually trapped the Qin army in the middle.

In just one hour, the eight thousand Qin soldiers were attacked by two armies, and only Chu Liji was left!

Wu Zhao hated this man so much that she waved her right hand and said coldly, "Ten thousand arrows pierce my heart!"

Suddenly, archers shot arrows at Chu Liji!

Amid screams, Chu Liji was shot into a sieve.

But even so, Chu Liji still pierced his body with a spear before he died, nailing himself to the street.

He would rather die than fall!

Before he died, he stared at Wu Zhao and roared, "If you follow Chu Ning, the Great Zhou will be annexed by the Chu State sooner or later!"
