C247 (1/2)
She knew that their people were no match for the The Jin Dynasty.
When she started the war, it was just a demonstration, to let the people of Da Jin know that their Easternum was not easy to bully. They were not cowards, and would not resist even if they were bullied to that extent.
She never thought that her royal father would actually be thinking the same thing as her, but he was rushing to split the The Jin Dynasty's land.
Therefore, when she was just unaware of the situation, she had already cooperated with the people of Nanke.
In the end, he was a man, a ruler. It was very normal for him to want to expand his lands, and Sima Yuzhu quickly figured out what his royal father was thinking. However, facing Ouyang Chengde, who had brought them into such a desperate situation, she was not as lenient. Her eyes seemed to be burning as she stared at Ouyang Chengde. Even Ouyang Chengde, who was far away from her, couldn't help but lower his head.
”Your Highness, let's retreat.”
The generals transmitted Ouyang Chengde's order.
”Hmph, are we really going to leave now? This is a great time, where are your people? The spy you buried in the wheat city first? ” Sima Yuzhu frowned, extremely displeased.
These soldiers had once been soldiers that she had personally brought out. She was also very sad to see them being slaughtered one by one.
She was just angry at him for saying such words.
”Pass down the order.” She didn't have any objections, she was just in a bad mood after all.
Ouyang Chengde brought the group and retreated, walking at a breakneck speed, arriving at the valley they were previously at.
”Don't go in.”
Sima Yuzhu looked up and down the trees, stopping him in time.
For a moment, Ouyang Chengde felt that the heavens wanted him dead. Otherwise, why would these people scheme against him, and then what would they do here? It was obvious that someone was waiting in ambush.
”However, if we don't go in, we'll have to face a large number of pursuers behind us.” Ouyang Chengde weakly shouted.
There were wolves in the front and tigers in the back. They were going to be forced in.
Sima Yuzhu took a look at the situation, the mountains over here were relatively flat, so the speed of logs rolling down would probably decrease, and there were a lot of rocks on the side of the slope. The vegetation was tight, and the ambush had succeeded, but the number of casualties could be reduced to a minimum, which was much better than killing those with weapons.
After weighing the pros and cons, Sima Yuzhu decisively took the lead.
”Go in, all of you. Be careful. The valley is high and they won't be able to make it down. But, you must be fast.”
If they set up an ambush in this valley, they would definitely lose some people. However, there was no other way, there was only this one road ahead.
All of the soldiers followed Sima Yuzhu and went in.
”Quick, quick, there's no need to hesitate. At this moment, we've already arrived at their hearts. If we think about it any more, we'll be dead.”
Some people shouted.
Jin Chupei, who was chasing behind them, felt great in his heart when he saw those people being forced into the valley.
Ouyang Chengde was still too inexperienced.
But unfortunately, it didn't kill him this time.
Jin Chupei was secretly worried in his heart. He had always felt that there would be a day when this Ouyang Chengde would ruin his plans.
”Your Highness, they've entered. Should we pass down the order?”
”Do it.”
There was nothing to hesitate about, Jin Chupei moved quickly, the banner in his hand moved, immediately causing the entire valley to boil.
Only now did she realize that the situation before was actually a bit too simple for her.
Although the damage from rolling wood wasn't great, they couldn't get out of here.
This valley is a natural estimating ground.
It was a pocket with holes on both sides. Once a person entered the pocket from one side, only one side would be sealed. The other side would be able to break out.
As long as they were fast enough, they could successfully break out. However, the problem now was that Jin Chupei and the rest had actually sealed up the two sides of the ravine.
They couldn't break out.
He could only ride his horse and bear the attacks of the powerful rocks and rolling logs.
The sounds of killing echoed in the valley, but there was a relaxed atmosphere on the outside.
”Your Highness, this time, if we can catch all of them in one fell swoop, I'm afraid the Easternum will be fine.”
Yes, after taking down the Easternum, he would find the antidote no matter what he wanted to do. He wouldn't have to worry about them sneaking into the capital city of the Easternum.
”This plan is very good. I have told them not to waste their time any longer. Go ahead and use what you need.”
In this valley, there was no one more familiar with the situation than him.
He already knew that the top of the mountain was extremely steep, but when he went down, the mountain slowly tilted, to the point that some of the rolling logs and rocks might not be able to display their greatest strength, thus, the pyretic oil was completely fatal.
However, Jin Chupei had been thinking about it earlier. He still wanted to keep her alive because Sima Yuzhu was inside, so he did not plan to use his pyretic oil in the beginning.
”Kill without mercy!” Jin Chupei opened his mouth.
Liu Jialin was overjoyed: Damn it, I had wanted to go to their place since long ago, but I never had the chance to, it's great now.
This wasn't just a matter of contribution, it was also a matter of a soldier's honor.
”Stay calm and kill them all, but don't kill them all. Their princess is still inside.”
Jin Chupei thought about it, and decided to keep Sima Yuzhu alive. I heard that she was still favored by the East Chu. If he hurt her, Emperor of the East Chu would probably be unhappy.
If he was unhappy, he would put on an act.
He could slowly grind and torture him, but his Qing couldn't wait any longer.
”Yes, Your Highness.”
Liu Jialin had never fought a battle that simple and easy before, but now, his entire face had blossomed into a flower.
This war continued all the way until dawn before it gradually came to a stop.
Sun Jinzi did not follow Jin Chupei out to have a look, but she had more or less predicted the outcome of the battle.
