Who put the yellow robe on me?

Jiang Chen looked in the direction of Princess Thirteen, who was chatting animatedly with Zhong Xiaodan, looking very interested.

Jiang Chen smiled helplessly, "Don't worry, General. Although Thirteenth Sister is naughty in small matters, she knows her limits in big matters."

The general's mind was filled with complex thoughts. Thinking of the Thirteenth Princess' countless mischiefs since she was a child, he couldn't help but think to himself, "Not mischievous? She has always been synonymous with mischief!"

Jiang Chen noticed the general's hesitation and asked, "General, is there anything else?"

The general nodded, his expression grim. "I just received a report from our scouts ahead. We will reach Liang Province in five days. However, the official road is severely damaged. It seems someone is trying to prevent us from providing support."

Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed when he heard this. "Someone is deliberately trying to stop us? It seems the Western Regions are truly afraid of the might of our army."

The general said in a deep voice, "That's right. They're clearly well-prepared, intending to slow down our march and buy time."

Jiang Chen frowned, thought for a moment, and asked, "General, do you have any solution?"

The general smiled slightly, his eyes filled with anticipation. "That's why I've come here specifically to ask for your advice. What are your thoughts?"

Jiang Chen's heart moved, and he realized that the general was testing him.

He smiled softly and said, "In this case, we need to have a response plan to resolve this crisis."

The general nodded without saying anything, obviously waiting for Jiang Chen's answer.

Jiang Chen pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I think we should send two people to lead 10,000 elite cavalry to quickly reinforce Liangzhou City.

Speed is key. It will not only quickly stabilize the situation in Liangzhou, but also bring great confidence and encouragement to the people in the city."

The general smiled with satisfaction, clearly quite pleased with Jiang Chen's answer. "Your Highness is absolutely right. This is exactly what I was thinking. In that case, I will appoint Your Highness and Xiao Shan'er to lead the troops. Da Lu'er and I will stay behind to ensure the safety of the subsequent reinforcements."

Jiang Chen nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, General, I will definitely fulfill my mission."

The general nodded in satisfaction, a look of determination on his face. "However, Your Highness, please remember that this journey will certainly not be peaceful. Spies and saboteurs from the Western Regions will surely set traps along the way. You must be extremely careful."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, his eyes revealing a firmness. "General, rest assured, we will be extra careful. Please take good care of us from behind. However, I'll trouble you to interrogate the assassin we just captured!"

The general said, "This old minister naturally understands. However, whether it's the people from the Western Regions or our spies from Daliang, I'm afraid our actions have been monitored by the enemy."

Jiang Chen shook his head helplessly: "When two armies fight, knowing both yourself and the enemy ensures victory! It seems that the Western Regions are not so easy to deal with! General, then the Second Young Master and I will go first!"

Just as everything was being arranged, the Thirteenth Princess, Jiang Sirou, suddenly stepped forward and shouted, "No! I want to go with you too!"

Jiang Chen turned to look at her helplessly, and said in a low voice, "Thirteenth Sister, this journey is bound to be full of dangers. It is safer for you to stay with the General."

Jiang Sirou shook her head stubbornly, her eyes firm: "I said no and it means no! I will go with you and will never be a burden!"

Jiang Chen sighed inwardly, knowing that the Thirteenth Princess was stubborn and that it was useless to persuade her. He looked at Zhong Xiaodan, seeking his help: "Xiao Dan'er, come and persuade the Thirteenth Princess."

Zhong Xiaodan smiled and teased, "Princess Rou, you really love to join in the fun. However, this mission is indeed dangerous and not a joke."

Princess Thirteen glared at him and said dissatisfiedly, "Who wants to join in the fun? I didn't come to the battlefield to play. I also want to contribute to this war!"

Her tone was firm, her eyes gleaming with tenacity, and she showed no intention of backing down.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but admire her courage even though her martial arts skills were not that good.

Jiang Chen took a deep breath and was about to say something else when a sudden idea flashed through his mind. He decided to find another way and said, "Okay, since Thirteenth Sister is so determined, then come with me. But you have to wear the gold silk soft armor!"

Princess Thirteen nodded without hesitation, her face full of seriousness: "Okay, I promise you!"

Jiang Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, having already made a plan in mind. He knew that although the Thirteenth Princess was naughty, she would not easily go back on her word.

Then Jiang Chen took off the gold silk soft armor, and Princess Thirteen went into the tent and put on the gold silk soft armor.

The next morning, on the pipeline to Liangzhou City.

Ten thousand elite cavalrymen led by Jiang Chen and Zhong Xiaodan galloped on the official road. The wind was whistling and the iron hooves of the war horses made heavy sounds on the ground.

The woods on both sides of the road looked particularly dark in the morning light, and the leaves swayed in the wind, as if they would pounce on them at any time.

The Thirteenth Princess followed closely on horseback, followed closely by Dianzhang and other personal guards. She looked focused, her eyes fixed straight ahead, showing no sign of fatigue.

"Your Highness, be careful of an ambush ahead!" Suddenly, Zhong Xiaodan rode his horse close to Jiang Chen and whispered a reminder.

Jiang Chen nodded, tightened his grip on the reins, and scanned the surroundings with eagle-like eyes. He knew in his heart that the spies from the Western Regions would never let them go easily.

At this moment, a strange noise suddenly came from the woods ahead. Jiang Chen's eyes flashed, and he immediately raised his hand to signal to stop.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!" he shouted in a low voice, and the elite cavalry immediately drew their weapons and prepared for battle.

In the woods not far away, dozens of Western assassins suddenly rushed out, holding long swords and with fierce light in their eyes. It was obvious that they had been lying in ambush here, waiting for the arrival of Jiang Chen and others.

"There's an ambush!" Jiang Chen sneered, already prepared. He raised his sword high and shouted, "All troops, be on guard! Fight the enemy!"

The two sides engaged in battle in an instant, and the flashes of swords and shadows of sabers intertwined in the morning light.

The four great guards took off at the same time, the swords in their hands were like thunder and lightning, and every sword they swung was filled with endless murderous intent.

Although the assassins were fierce, they soon became overwhelmed by the attack of Daliang's elite cavalry.

Thirteenth Princess Jiang Sirou watched from the side, her eyes sparkling with excitement and curiosity.

Although she agreed to Jiang Chen's conditions, she was still eager to try it out in her heart and wanted to experience the feeling of fighting for herself.

The battle lasted for a while, and the assassins gradually lost and began to retreat!

Jiang Chen's gaze swept across the battlefield, looking at the Thirteenth Princess, Jiang Sirou, standing at the rear of the team. She was wearing golden soft armor, her face solemn, but her eyes couldn't hide the eagerness to fight.

She gripped the dagger tightly in her hand. Although she didn't rush into the battlefield, she was still full of desire to fight. Jiang Chen felt helpless and secretly thanked himself for letting her wear this armor before.

"Your Highness, the enemy's momentum has weakened. It seems they are just conducting a tentative attack." Zhong Xiaodan reminded from the side, his eyes sharp as he stared at the front.

Jiang Chen nodded in response: "Yes, they just want to delay us and consume our manpower and physical strength. We can't let them lead us by the nose."

Just as Jiang Chen was about to order a counterattack, a sharp whistle suddenly came from the woods, and then a more elite team of enemy troops quickly rushed out from the depths of the woods.

These people were wearing light armor and moving swiftly. They looked to be elite troops from the Western Regions who had received rigorous training.

"Oh no! They have backup!" Zhong Xiaodan's face changed, he gripped his spear tightly and quickly took a defensive stance.

"Everyone, the enemy is attacking! Prepare for defense and don't disperse!" Jiang Chen ordered loudly.
