The eldest son is fierce

The southern border, with its streams and ravines.

The sounds of battle echoed like thunder in the mountain stream. Du Lingfei glanced out from behind her cover and froze on the spot.

Enemies were attacking from all directions in the mountain stream. At a glance, they were everywhere, numbering two or three thousand.

"Damn it, how come there are so many people? How did so many of them get right under our noses?!"

Du Lingfei's pretty face was cold. She originally thought that there were only two or three hundred enemies following behind her, but she did not expect so many people to suddenly appear.

"They must have gotten close under the cover of darkness. The opponent has been hiding in the shadows, waiting for this moment."

Kong Shilan's pretty face turned serious. She said, "It seems that the other party has gone to great lengths to capture you and Yinyin. You and Yinyin should leave first and don't worry about us."

“The other side is getting anxious, which means that what Tang Yi did in Nanjing has touched a nerve with them. If you and Tang Yin fall into their hands, Tang Yi will be hampered in Nanjing.”

“He is in grave danger in Nanjing now; any slight obstacle could cost him his life.”

Princess Xiao Lan's pretty face turned deathly pale. As a pampered princess, she had never experienced such a scene before. At this moment, her delicate body was trembling slightly with fear, and fine beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose.

But upon hearing Kong Shilan's words, she nodded emphatically and said, "Yes, Sister Du, we'll have the special operations battalion escort you through the breakout later."

Du Lingfei clenched her fists, her pretty face alternating between pale and flushed.

The enemy, numbering in the thousands, surrounded the mountain stream, clearly having made thorough preparations and leaving them no way out.

But so what?

If there's no road, then fight your way through.

"Alright, if we can't hold out, I'll take Tang Yin with me."

Du Lingfei looked up, her pretty face now cold and resolute. Even if it meant death, she had to live to take Tang Yin out of here.

She promised Tang Yi that she would protect Tang Yin. If anything happened to Tang Yin, Tang Yi would go crazy!

Tang Yi would reason with anyone else, but if he messed with Tang Yin, then the flintlock pistol in Tang Yi's hand would be the only reason to do so, and the consequences would probably be bloodshed for miles around!

Zheng!

Du Lingfei drew her soft sword from her waist, ignoring the surrounding artillery fire and gunfire, and pinched Tang Yin's nose: "Xiao Yin, are you scared? If you are, close your eyes."

"Sister-in-law, I'm not afraid." Tang Yin shook her head slightly.

She wasn't afraid at all. She witnessed everything when Yan Shuangyu and the Qin brothers were torn apart by five horses.

I'm just a little sad that I can't see my brother.

Thinking of this, Tang Yin's eyes reddened a little, and she reached out her hand to Du Lingfei.

Du Lingfei paused for a moment, then bent down and picked Tang Yin up, slowly raising the sword in her hand at the same time: "It's good that you're not afraid. Your sister-in-law will take you to see your brother!"

Meanwhile, Kong Wu, the company commander of the Sixth Company of the Special Operations Battalion, was extremely annoyed as he watched the enemy charging towards them. Originally, he and Du Lingfei had set up a trap to lure out the people following behind and wipe them all out in one fell swoop.

At the time, we estimated that the enemy had at most two or three hundred men, enough to put up a fight, but we never expected that the enemy would come with two or three thousand men instead of two or three hundred.

They haven't made a move along the way; they've been gathering forces from all sides!

"Detonate! Detonate the outer bombs immediately!"

Kong Wu didn't hesitate for a moment and shouted coldly.

At a command, the soldier in charge of detonating the grenade immediately pulled the rope connecting the grenade, and the next second a deafening explosion rang out outside the camp.

The explosion nearly engulfed all the enemies charging ahead, many of whom were blown to pieces on the spot, screaming in agony. However, the enemies behind were not deterred, but instead charged forward wave after wave.

Upon seeing this, Kong Wu's expression changed drastically: "Fuck you, these aren't ordinary enemies, they're all suicide squads!"

"Open fire and force them back."

Upon hearing Kong Wu's words, Du Lingfei and Kong Shilan's faces also turned extremely gloomy, and they felt a sense of despair.

If it were an ordinary enemy, they would usually be scared away when the bomb went off.

But assassins are different. They only care about their missions and no longer care about life or death.

"No, it's not working. The flintlock rifle takes too long to reload."

"Stop using guns, switch to weapons and fight!"

"Kill! So what if they're assassins? I'm going to kill assassins today."

"..."

The soldiers of the Sixth Company of the Special Operations Battalion opened fire, but they were no match for the reckless enemy charging forward. In a short time, some enemy soldiers broke through the defenses and stormed into the bunkers.

Once the enemy breached the cover, the flintlock pistols became useless. The special operations battalion soldiers, who had just picked up their guns, drew their swords again and engaged in fierce combat with the enemy who had broken through the defenses!

Before being recruited by Tang Yi, they were all well-known experts in the martial arts world, so they were naturally not afraid of any assassins.

"Kong Wu, don't panic! Converge the defenses, quick!"

Du Lingfei immediately gave the order: "Move towards the center of the camp, don't get scattered, and don't break the formation."

Upon receiving the order, Kong Wu immediately drew his sword and moved closer to Kong Shilan. Just then, a tall figure suddenly emerged from among the assassins and thrust his sword at Du Lingfei.

"Miss Du, your opponent is me."

Du Lingfei's expression changed. She lightly stomped her foot on the ground and gracefully floated backward. At the same time, she suddenly raised her sword to block the woman's sword.

"Who are you?" Du Lingfei asked coldly.

The woman, holding a long sword, smiled and removed her cloak, revealing her beautiful, aloof face: "Hehe, it's only been a short time since I left the capital, and Miss Du doesn't recognize me?"

Du Lingfei stared at the woman, momentarily stunned.

"It's really you!"

……

Nanjing, Kyoto, Suzaku Street.

Zhang Laojiu now has soldiers, weapons, and powerful backers. Why would he care about Yuchi Jiong's threat?

Seeing the old man order the arrows to be fired, Zhang Laojiu pointed his carrying pole at Yuchi Jiong and coldly shouted, "Hey, General Yuchi, I advise you to think twice and not do something you'll regret."

"If you dare to fire an arrow, the thousands of soldiers behind you will suffer the consequences."

“Take the old man’s advice, get off your horse, and let’s sit down at the table and have a good chat.”

At the far end of the battle line, Yu Chi Jiong was furious. He glared at Zhang Lao Jiu and said, "Who the hell are you trying to scare? I've brought 40,000 troops here. Do you really think you can ambush me with only 2,000 men?"

"Archers, fire your arrows!"

The infantry in front immediately made way, and the archers and crossbowmen in the rear stepped forward. Zhang Laojiu sighed as he watched this scene: "Alas, those who do not heed the advice of their elders will suffer the consequences!"

"I've been preparing for so long, do you think I'd let you fire first?"

Zhang Laojiu sneered and suddenly pulled his foot back.

All the ropes connecting the grenades and explosive charges around him were tied to his old, calloused leg. His movement immediately ignited the grenades and explosive charges hidden in various corners in front of him.

"What's that? Something's smoking over there?"

"There are more behind us, and it seems like there's something smoking all around!"

"..."

Upon seeing the smoking grenades and hand grenades, the Right Valiant Guard army was thrown into chaos.
