Empress Liu Qian greatly admired the bravery and fighting skills of Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun. Soon, the Turks in the Mobei steppe invaded, and the Turkish cavalry reached more than 50,000. Empress Liu Qian sent Lin Wanyi to lead the 25,000-strong Right Guard as the commander, and Li Wanjun to lead the 5,000-strong Right Guard as the vanguard to conquer Mobei again!

Mobei was mostly grassland, so Li Wanjun and Lin Wanyi led their troops, primarily cavalry, supplemented by over 30,000 local soldiers and over 5,000 cavalry. They deployed a formation to engage the Turkic cavalry.

To counter the 50,000-strong Turkic cavalry, Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun devised a "pincer" formation. They divided the cavalry into two wings, while the infantry concentrated in the center, forming a solid defensive line. At the start of the battle, Li Wanjun led a swift attack with a vanguard of 5,000 cavalry, drawing out the main Turkish force. The Turkish army fell for the ruse and pursued Li Wanjun's troops. Meanwhile, Lin Wanyi led the main cavalry to flank the Turkish cavalry, trapping them in the middle. Seizing the opportunity, the infantry launched a charge, coordinating with the cavalry to divide and encircle the Turkish army. After a fierce battle, the Turkish army was routed, and Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun emerged victorious.

After their initial victory, Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun exchanged a smile, knowing full well that the ensuing battle would be even more intense. They quickly deployed their forces, disguising their 5,000 infantry as the main force of the army. These soldiers, clad in magnificent armor and holding high banners, presented a magnificent display, successfully attracting the attention of the Turkish cavalry.

The Turkish army attacked like a surging tide, the sound of horse hooves resounding through the sky, raising clouds of dust. They brandished scimitars and shouted deafeningly, as if they were ready to tear the enemy to pieces.

Meanwhile, the true main cavalry, led by Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun, lay quietly hidden in a nearby valley. Their horses stood motionless, the warriors gripping their spears tightly, their eyes revealing a resolute and courageous look.

As the Turkic cavalry advanced deep into the hinterland, Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun exchanged glances and, in tacit agreement, simultaneously issued the order to attack. Instantly, a deafening cry of killing rang out in the valley, and the main cavalry suddenly charged out like a tiger descending from the mountains.

They attacked the Turkish army swiftly from the flanks and rear, their spears thrust out like lightning, accurately hitting the enemy's vital points. The Turkish army was immediately thrown into chaos, and they were caught off guard by this sudden attack.

On the battlefield, swords clashed, blood splattered everywhere. Lin Wanyi led the charge, wielding her longsword with agility, each strike carrying a fierce momentum that struck fear into the enemy. Li Wanjun commanded the cavalry, flexibly changing tactics to prevent the Turkic army from breathing.

Under the fierce attack of the main cavalry, the Turkic army was defeated step by step. Their formation was broken, the soldiers fled in all directions, and the battlefield was in chaos. In the end, the Turkic army retreated in defeat, leaving behind a streak of corpses and tattered flags.

On the vast grasslands, the smoke of the third battle is about to fill the air. Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun lead their troops and meticulously plan this decisive battle.

On the grasslands, the infantrymen silently dug shallow trenches and set traps, their movements skillful and swift. Inside the traps, sharp wooden stakes were hidden in the grass, awaiting the arrival of the Turkic cavalry.

On the battlefield, the two armies faced each other, a tense atmosphere permeating the air. Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun, astride their warhorses, looked dashing and heroic, their eyes revealing determination and courage.

The battle began. Lin Wanyi's cavalry feigned defeat and retreated. Seeing this, the Turkic cavalry saw an opportunity and rushed in like a surging tide. The sound of their hooves echoed across the grassland, as if tearing the earth apart.

However, as the Turkish cavalry entered the trap, something unexpected happened. The horses fell into the trap one after another, neighing in pain, and the Turkish cavalry fell into chaos. The infantry quickly attacked, armed with long spears, and rushed towards the enemy like tigers descending from the mountains.

Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun led the cavalry, galloping from the flank. Their figures were like lightning, their spears flashing with a cold light. Li Wanjun's five thousand right guards were like sharp swords, piercing the flank of the Turkic army and instantly disrupting their formation.

On the battlefield, the cries of battle and the clashing of weapons intertwined to form a thrilling symphony. Blood dyed the grassland red, as soldiers on both sides fought for their beliefs and honor.

Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun moved freely on the battlefield, their command boosting the morale of the soldiers. Under their fierce attacks, the Turkic army gradually lost its ability to resist.

In the end, over 50,000 Turks were annihilated, leaving only a devastated battlefield. Lin Wanyi and Li Wanjun's fame spread far and wide across the northern desert, and their heroic deeds became legendary.

Li Wanjun, originally a Han Chinese woman from the Western Regions, was familiar with the fighting methods of the other ethnic groups on the plateaus and grasslands, so she easily cooperated with Lin Wanyi to defeat the Turkic cavalry. However, during the second rebellion, she was not yet familiar with the terrain, such as the ravines and canyons, the narrow plains and oases, and the desolate areas. Therefore, she was surrounded and annihilated by the rebels who used their superior forces and the terrain to their advantage. In the end, she was defeated and captured. Fortunately, Lin Wanyi came to her rescue in time, and she led less than 500 remaining soldiers to pretend to surrender and hold out until Lin Wanyi arrived. Finally, she succeeded in counterattacking, otherwise she would have been killed.

During the second rebellion suppression operation, Li Wanjun's 5,000-man Right Guard vanguard encountered an ambush by the rebels, who had taken advantage of the terrain and set numerous traps in the ravines and valleys.

When Li Wanjun's army entered the canyon, the rebels suddenly attacked from the mountains on both sides, and a rain of arrows fell like locusts, causing heavy casualties in an instant. Li Wanjun tried to organize a counterattack, but the rebels had a clear advantage in manpower and quickly surrounded the Youwuwei vanguard.

In the narrow oasis of the plains, Li Wanjun's army was trapped. Unable to deploy an effective formation, they could only passively withstand the rebels' attacks. Li Wanjun personally led the soldiers in a valiant resistance, but the rebels' offensive became increasingly fierce, and soldiers around her continued to fall.

Later in the battle, Li Wanjun's troops were surrounded by the rebels. The rebels surged like a tide, and Li Wanjun led her 5,000 soldiers to fight hard, but they were outnumbered and gradually divided and surrounded by the rebels.

In the fierce battle, Li Wanjun suffered multiple injuries. Her arm was pierced by a rebel spear, staining her battle robe with blood. Her leg was also slashed, the pain nearly unsteadying her. Yet, she continued to wield her sword, bravely fighting the enemy.

Ultimately, Li Wanjun's troops were surrounded and annihilated by the rebels, and nearly all of the 5,000 soldiers were annihilated. Li Wanjun herself was seriously wounded and fell in a pool of blood. The rebels swarmed over her and captured her.

In the rebel camp, Li Wanjun was severely tortured. They whipped her body with a whip, each lash leaving a deep bloody mark. Her screams echoed throughout the tent, but she gritted her teeth and refused to reveal any information about Lin Wanyi's army.

Despite the severe pain, Li Wanjun remained steadfast in guarding the secret in her heart. She closed her eyes tightly and said nothing, refusing to yield despite the torture of the rebels.

Furious and humiliated, the rebels decided to resort to even more brutal tactics. They pressed a red-hot iron against her skin, sending smoke and a burning smell into the air. Li Wanjun groaned, sweat dripping down her forehead, but the determination in her eyes remained undimmed.

Seeing how strong she was, the rebels became even more furious. They began to torture her even more cruelly, and some even raped her. Li Wanjun's eyes were filled with despair and anger. In order to gain a chance to turn the tables, she chose to pretend to surrender.

Li Wanjun endured the severe pain in her body, with an expression of submission on her face. She bowed her head to surrender to the rebels, lied about her willingness to cooperate, and revealed information about Lin Wanyi's army.

Seeing this, the rebel leader smiled triumphantly, thinking that Li Wanjun had finally surrendered. However, they did not know that this was just a temporary measure by Li Wanjun. She secretly vowed to find a chance to escape and report to Lin Wanyi, so that they could regroup and fight against the rebels together.

Fortunately, Lin Wanyi came to the rescue in time. She led the army to the scene quickly and launched a fierce battle with the rebels. Li Wanjun led less than 500 remaining soldiers to pretend to surrender, successfully confusing the rebels and buying time for Lin Wanyi's rescue.

Finally, Lin Wanyi's army successfully defeated the rebels and rescued Li Wanjun and her remnants. Li Wanjun showed her tenacious will and unyielding spirit in this battle and became a hero in the army.

The Empress was delighted and decided to personally summon Li Wanjun. In the palace, the Empress praised Li Wanjun highly and bestowed upon her generous rewards and honors.

Li Wanjun was moved to tears. She expressed her loyalty to the country to the empress and expressed her willingness to continue serving the country.

However, deep down, Li Wanjun still cared about Lin Wanyi and was grateful for her rescue. She knew that this victory was only temporary, and there would be more dangerous battles waiting for them in the future!
