The Empress traveled through time and space, and she fought for supremacy in the troubled times

Looking at her two children standing in front of her, Lin Huixin opened her sleepless eyes and forced a smile on her face.

"Mingmie, Jingxian, you must return safely. Mom and Dad will be waiting for you at home."

Yun Zhi nodded and said, "I will bring my brother back safely."

"Yes, my sister and I will come back safe and sound, don't worry."

Yun Youde, who was standing with Lin Huixin, looked at them deeply.

"Let's go, we won't keep you any longer, the sooner you go, the sooner you can come back."

"Okay, then my sister and I will leave first."

Watching the carriage slowly disappear from his sight, Yun Youde sighed silently.

"Let's go back. Maybe Meimei and the others will be back soon."

"Ah."

Except for a few people, most people don't know about Yun Zhi's departure.

Even the soldiers led by Chen Yuanshu were unaware of this and just thought they were moving to another place to continue occupying the territory.

After all, if the people in the county knew about it, there would be chaos for a few days.

Three days later.

Just before sunset, the carriage finally arrived in Lin'an County.

Chen Yuanshu and Li Shun, who received the news, were already waiting outside the city gate.

Seeing Yun Zhi and Yun Jingxian jump down from the carriage nimbly, they immediately came over.

Looking at Chen Yuanshu's face, which had obviously become much rougher, his eyes were becoming more and more confident.

"My lord, you are here. The accommodation has been vacated for you. I will take you there."

"Well, how long have you been here?"

"Half a day earlier than the Lord."

Chen Yuanshu and Li Shun rushed here without stopping after receiving the imperial edict that was delivered at full speed.

The soldiers also set up camp outside.

As for Yunzhi, she was relatively close to here and left after finishing all her official business, so she was half a day late.

On the road.

"What's going on over there?"

"The scouts just came back and said they're starting to prepare to attack Nanzhao County. I think they can take it in two days."

"Okay, notify the soldiers and let them get ready."

"Yes."

Two days later.

The scouts sent out to investigate reported back that Marquis Anding's troops had already attacked the county town and were now sweeping the area.

at this time.

Yun Zhi stood at the front of the team wearing a suit of armor weighing nearly 30 kilograms.

Now, she is nearly five feet two inches tall, and the helmet on her head covers half of her forehead, leaving only her facial features exposed, making it difficult to tell whether she is a man or a woman.

Only then did the soldiers standing here realize that it was their lord who led them into battle.

When they were chatting before, they always heard General Chen and Lieutenant General Li talking about how powerful their lord was.

It has been a long time since Yun Zhi and Zhou Yifeng's fight, but Chen Yuanshu and the others still can't forget the shock they felt at that time.

So when we were marching and fighting, we would always talk about Yunzhi.

This also made the group of soldiers below very curious about her, as she was the one who could make such powerful people like General Chen and Lieutenant General Li talk endlessly about her.

Today, I finally met him in person.

Yun Zhi looked at the excited people below, among whom more than 30% were women.

Each of their eyes was hotter than those men.

Because it takes a lot of resources and time, many of the people below are not fully armed. They simply wear helmets and sternums to protect their heads, chests and backs.

Facing their gazes, it seemed that there was no need to say anything more at this moment.

Besides, the truth will be revealed on the battlefield.

"Set off."

After he finished speaking, he mounted his horse, followed closely by Chen Yuanshu and Li Shun, and they headed towards Nanzhao County in a mighty procession.

As for Yun Jingxian, he was standing in the rear of the archer team.

By then, there was no time to send out patrols on the city walls.

From the wide-open city gate, one could see the chaotic scene inside the city.

Many of the attacking soldiers were searching houses for valuables, and some were even preparing to do things worse than beasts.

Didn't realize the danger was coming at all.

Yun Zhi was the first to charge into the city on horseback, drawing his sword and shouting, "Kill!"

Seeing this, the soldiers rushed in after her.

For a moment, shouts and cries of killing were heard everywhere.

Yun Zhi held a sharp sword in his hand and kept swinging it at the enemy.

With her agile posture on horseback and sharp swordsmanship, anyone who rushed over and tried to pull her off the horse would become a dead soul under her sword.

After a while, they fought their way out.

Yun Zhi fought in the front, while Chen Yuanshu and Li Shun led other soldiers to encircle the two wings and cut off the enemy's retreat.

General Wu Zhong, who led the troops on the side of Marquis Anding, saw the group coming in with great momentum.

"Damn it, retreat."

We had taken this city with great difficulty, and so many people died, but it was still taken away by this group of people.

Before escaping, he carefully looked at Yun Zhi and the other two who were rushing in front of him several times to make sure he had never seen them before.

Could it be the rebels?

When did they have this rebel army? It is roughly estimated to have 30,000 people.

It's hidden deep.

We can only retreat first and ask the Marquis to send troops to support us.

Yun Zhi looked at the people fleeing in panic, "Archers, get ready."

The words fell.

The archer standing at the back stepped out from the team and took out his bow and arrow.

"shoot."

At the command, all the arrows were fired.

Because they were busy escaping, the team became a little confused, and the dense arrows took away hundreds of lives in an instant.

After a while, the enemy disappeared from sight.

Chen Yuanshu rode up to Yun Zhi and said, "Lord, we must catch up."

"Don't chase poor bandits."

Yun Zhi estimated the strength of both sides. The other side had just made a prompt withdrawal, and the death toll was less than a thousand, so there was not much loss.

Although they had ten thousand more soldiers than them, they had one advantage;

I am more familiar with the terrain here than they are.

If we pursue them rashly, we might fall into the enemy's trap, and then the result will be more harm than good.

It is also better not to show too much strength in the early stage, in case Marquis Anding becomes depressed and seeks help from outside.

"Clean up the battlefield first and treat the wounded."

"Yes."

The soldiers began to take action, clearing the battlefield and rescuing the wounded.

As for Wu Zhong who escaped, he was lying in ambush in the valley, but saw that no one was chasing him for a long time.

"Retreat, they probably won't come."

After returning to a city he had captured some time ago, he began to write letters to report to the marquis and request support.

After writing down everything that happened today, hesitate for a moment and write it down at the end.

This rebel army is not a cause for concern.

In his opinion, they were able to win simply by taking the enemy by surprise and having more people.

Moreover, he did not pursue the enemy even though he had more troops than them. It seems that he is a coward.

After the ink dries, place it in an envelope.

"Ride as fast as you can and deliver it to the Marquis."

"Yes."
