Chapter 437 Asking for a Fight

People generally believe that women are inherently weak, but are they really weak?

Many people simply don't understand that even children are capable of killing enemies; they just lack the courage and determination.

The Red Eagles Army has no shortage of the belief in victory.

Besides, they also harbor hatred.

With the fate of our comrades from Dongzhou before us, who wouldn't want to devour the flesh of the people of the Brown Kingdom?

Okay, that's a bit disgusting.

But who wouldn't want to chop off a few brown-skinned people to vent their frustration?

Jianyang proceeded with extreme caution.

She knew that even if she gained the upper hand in this battle, it wouldn't be an easy fight.

She couldn't allow Urisu any chance to turn the tide, nor could she let the sisters who died in the war sacrifice themselves in vain.

Instead of breaking up and reorganizing the familiar troops, she assigned them to different positions based on each general's characteristics, so as to ensure that when a breach was made in any area, the surrounding two sides could support each other.

This requires extremely strong adaptability and teamwork.

However, this is precisely what the Red Eagle Army excels at.

Urisu was highly skilled in martial arts and incredibly brave, but half of his subordinates had been poached by Mo Sheng, so naturally he wouldn't bring out those he didn't trust.

Therefore, the pressure on the Red Eagle Army was somewhat reduced.

At least in terms of numbers, the two sides are evenly matched.

Jianyang did not let its guard down because of this.

“Mo Sheng is not the type to sit idly by and wait for death; we must be wary of him colluding with Wu Risu from the inside.”

She was besieging Urisu, not wanting to be attacked from both sides.

If they want to achieve great results with minimal investment, then they must not let Urisu regain her senses.

The key to this battle lies in speed.

Therefore, the arrangement of gunpowder is very important in this process.

After being relentlessly bombarded by the Red Eagle Army, Urisu, who had initially been dismissive, was finally forced to face reality.

Mo Sheng hadn't lied to him after all.

He stepped into the Red Eagle Army's trap, and within half a day, he had lost half of his men.

His intuition told him that he couldn't continue fighting like this.

He would never be able to break through the siege of these lunatics using his usual methods.

Because he can't outdo them in their craziness.

But now he is no longer in control of his own destiny, and the battle situation is no longer under his control.

Times have changed, and he has become a trapped beast, seemingly with no other choice but to struggle desperately.

"General! You should run!"

Hearing his subordinate's words, Urisu said viciously, "Do you want me to be a coward like Zhuo Mu, despised by everyone?"

Now the news of Dayong and Heguo has spread far and wide; who doesn't know how Zhuo Mu survived back then?

Although the Emperor and Zhuo Mu vehemently denied it, claiming it was a smear campaign by the Dayong Dynasty.

But Da Yong has even produced witnesses, so who doesn't know the inside story?

"General, how can you be like Zhuo Mu? You have never betrayed us! If you die, wouldn't you be handing over your position to Mo Sheng?"

These words struck a chord with Urisu.

"Besides! Your sister is gentle and weak-willed. If you die, she will be all alone and who will protect her?"

Urisu's eyebrows twitched: "That's right, I can't abandon my sister."

He cast an admiring glance at his subordinate.

They've already set a step for him, so it's perfectly normal for him to take it.

But things weren't as easy as he had imagined.

No matter where he is, the Red Eagle Army can find him.

Even though his trusted confidants were all handpicked by him, he couldn't help but suspect that there was a traitor among them.

Is it really that he's not smart enough to recognize whether his confidant is a human or a ghost?

Just as he decided to ruthlessly part ways with these trusted confidants, the Red Eagle Army had already silently surrounded him.

Three days had passed, and Urisu now had only two hundred men left.

He gritted his teeth.

Since we can't survive, we might as well die a glorious death.

"My good lads, to die here today would be a disgrace to our entire lives. Are you willing to accept this? Come, follow me and take a few more of you down with you!"

Urisu had many fierce generals under his command. These people admired his reputation and were impressed by him. They had nothing else but the courage of ordinary men.

Upon discovering that the remaining soldiers were beginning to put up a fierce resistance, Jianyang became increasingly cautious.

Fortunately, she didn't let her guard down and finally intercepted Urisu.

Facing each other head-on, Jianyang stood in front of the horse and said, "Wurisu, surrender now."

Urisu grinned: "Your Red Eagle Army is nothing special. So many of you are fighting me, yet I still managed to take over a hundred lives."

He pulled off the towel from his head, wrung it out with both hands, and a gush of blood came out.

Jianyang gripped the reins tightly.

She knew what this meant, but she couldn't be weak or lose her composure.

She looked down into Urisu's eyes, seeing the undisguised provocation in them, and leaned down: "Urisu, I'm curious, have you always been this stubborn?"

She raised her spear and slammed it hard into Urisu's shoulder.

It wasn't that Wurisu didn't want to dodge, but Jianyang was too fast, and he simply couldn't avoid it.

His eyes widened: "You! You've been hiding your true abilities!"

Jianyang straightened his back again.

Are we hiding our talents? No.

He had provoked her quite effectively, and if she didn't make him bleed a little, her anger would cloud her judgment.

But she didn't deny it.

"It's normal that someone with your uncivilized mind can't understand. That's not important. In short, you've lost completely today, and you can't escape it either."

Urisu laughed loudly, "Then let's see how many lives you're willing to pay to capture me."

Lu Mengying tightened the reins: "General, Mengying requests to fight."

Zhang Dairong, standing beside Jianyang, also stepped forward: "General! Dairong requests to fight!"

Zhang Dairong and Lü Mengying exchanged a glance.

"You go first," Lü Mengying said nonchalantly.

Her politeness wasn't because she had a good temper, but because she was confident that no one here could beat Urisu except her.

However, being too proactive may be seen as taking credit for others' work.

She is His Highness's woman; we cannot allow the Red Eagle Army to harbor resentment towards His Highness because of this.

After all, His Highness seems determined to take over the Red Eagle Army.

To everyone's surprise, Jianyang did not agree immediately, but instead looked at Zhang Dairong.

Zhang Dairong bit her lip reluctantly: "Lord Lü, please."

She also knew that she probably didn't stand much of a chance against Urisu.

Moreover, Lü Mengying's performance in this war was nothing short of remarkable.

Zhang Dairong also admired her.

But giving this opportunity to Lü Mengying would be like admitting that she and her Red Eagle team are inferior in skill.

How could she accept this?

Didn't the general say that His Highness didn't want to steal the limelight from their Red Eagle Army?

Why send Lü Mengying out of the blue?

She couldn't figure it out.

But Jianyang knew the reason very well.

If Yuanjia wanted to become emperor, he would need a personal guard like the Azure Dragon Guard to carry out the emperor's will.

Yuan Jia hoped to select this team from the Red Eagle Army.

How could an empress be without female guards?

Selecting directly from the Red Eagle Army is much faster than training them yourself.

At that time, even if the world is at peace and there are no battles to fight, the Red Eagle Army will not have to worry about where to go.

As for Lü Mengying, she will likely be the leader from now on.

From this perspective, Lü Mengying can hardly be considered an outsider.
