The Year of Lihua: She Was Reborn

Hua Ye stepped on the edge of the city wall and jumped onto the eaves of the pavilion on the top of the city wall, looking down at the Tibetan army that had retreated two miles outside the city wall.

The figure was really eye-catching, and the soldiers were shouting under her.

"Come down, young lady, who are you? You are so reckless! Be careful of the archer on the opposite side!"

"Come down quickly, only those who are not in the army can come here."

"Girl, come down quickly!"

When Zuo Nian heard the sound, he walked out of the pavilion and looked up.

"Hua Ye, come down quickly, it's dangerous up there!"

"Someone from General Hua's Mansion?"

Before he finished speaking, a cloud-piercing arrow shot straight towards Hua Ye.

Her almond-shaped eyes immediately caught the direction from which the arrow came. She rolled over and caught the arrow in her hand.

He slid down from the eaves and landed steadily on the city wall. He grabbed the crossbow beside him and drew the bow and arrow in one go.

She knelt on one knee and lowered her head, drew the bow, and shot in the direction of the arrow, hitting the man directly between the eyebrows and piercing his head.

"Sure enough, I broke through the restraints and my internal energy surged!"

They all heard a wail and couldn't help but look at her in surprise and admiration.

Hua Ye threw the bow back to the archer, then looked at Zuo Nian who was full of worry.

He was wearing golden blood-stained armor that gleamed in the bright red sun, and his black undergarment was torn, revealing his strong arms.

"You haven't recovered yet, so why are you out?"

"It's almost time! My mom called Jianwu and the others away, and I didn't want to be left there alone... so I came here!"

Hua Ye, who was speaking at this moment, no longer had his previous carefree attitude. There was even a hint of shyness in his voice, and his voice sounded softer.

"Then follow me."

Zuo Nian said as he pulled her into the pavilion...

"I heard that she is the eldest daughter of the Hua family, a mysterious figure who is hard to find."

"The first day she came to our barracks, she caught a spy with a cartload of green papayas!"

"Rest a little longer now. The Tibetans may invade at any time..."

There was a man in a major-general's uniform, half of his body covered with a black robe, and a deep voice came from inside.

The soldiers who were talking immediately shut their mouths, closed their eyes and rested.

"Your clothes are too eye-catching!"

Zuo Nian searched through the cotton-padded clothes in the pavilion for a long time but couldn't find a suitable piece of clothing.

"It's okay, just wear it like this. When it gets cold later, you can put another layer on outside."

Hua Ye tugged at the corner of his clothes to stop him from continuing his search.

"Why do you like the big guys so much? My dad and the others?"

"General Hua and General Mu are stationed in the city to arrange supplies and rescue the wounded, ensuring the retreat route is intact!"

Zuo Nian sat down on the ground, somewhat exhausted, and spoke slowly and weakly.

"Oh, well, they're old after all, so it's okay for them to do some support work."

She also sat down with him, and the two of them were quite far away from each other, with some distance between them.

"It's only been a few days, how come they've already reached the city walls?"

"The Tibetans are brave and skilled in warfare, yet full of cunning tactics. They prefer to wage war in the dark. They are not as familiar with desert nighttime combat as we are. Our ambush in the Stone Forest was wiped out by them!"

As he spoke, Zuo Nian, who had always been very dignified, began to back down. He looked like an eggplant hit by frost, wilting.

"Are we from the Weihua Army?"

"Half of them are from the Mu Family Army and half are from the Weihua Army. They sent out signal flares before they died and made deployments in advance. Otherwise, this city would have been lost long ago!"

Zuo Nianru's eagle-like eyes were bloodshot at the moment, and the tears that were about to fall were forced back.

"Has the body been brought back?"

"No, their men took turns guarding the stone forest without any slackness, leaving our men no chance to take advantage."

Hua Ye's eyes also turned slightly red, and he was annoyed as to why he had to practice at this critical moment.

"I knew they were cunning, but I didn't expect them to be so powerful!"

Hua Ye moved closer to him and patted his broad shoulders. The difference in their body sizes formed a sharp contrast.

"No, since I'm here, I'll deal with them myself. If I don't beat them into a corner, I won't call myself Hua Ye!"

Her determined look of revenge made Zuo Nian laugh.

"Those military books and storybooks of mine weren't read in vain. You can rest for a while. When you're well rested, go to my father to discuss deployment."

She pushed Zuo Nian down onto his cotton coat.

"Just sleep peacefully, I'll take care of it here!"

Her determined eyes revealed a calmness and composure that was inconsistent with her age.

Zuo Nian saw her almond-shaped eyes and closed them peacefully. In less than a minute, he fell into a deep sleep, his breathing gradually becoming even...
