Chapter 87. Spring and Autumn, Warring States Period (26) The Fiery Female General (II) Part 1

     Under the beautiful moonlight, the woman in red jumped off the city wall as light as a swallow, with the red flag in her hand fluttering in the wind. This bright and eye-catching red color made her a sitting duck in the eyes of the enemy.

     The gates of Chuyang City were clearly open, but in Zhao Lie’s eyes, there was only a hint of red. He could not wait to point forward and said, “Shoot!”

     There was no need to even mention the name, Zhao Jun’s crossbow team and archery team all knew who their general was talking about.

     In a split second, crossbowmen and archers from eight miles away fired almost simultaneously in the same direction. Countless arrows, numbering in the tens of thousands, rained down from all sides, targeting the lower-middle section of the right side of the city wall.

     Ye Mo pursed her lips slightly. A small, hard iron block fell from the long sleeve of her left arm. With a tap of her right foot, her body swayed and she moved a distance to the lower right, narrowly avoiding the densest cluster of bronze arrows.

     Switching to a two-handed grip on the red flag, she swept it up and down to disperse the remaining arrows. Finally, she successfully touched the ground, crouching slightly to reduce the impact on her feet. A second later, she leaped up again, once more deftly avoiding the countless arrows

     After six or seven such volleys, Ye Mo was certainly not unscathed. As she blocked arrows, only the thought of survival kept her going. Persistence was victory!

     Given the sheer number of arrows, she invested 3 points in Constitution, 4 points in Agility, and 2 points in Strength. In such critical moments, free attribute points had to be used wisely

     Compared with her, Zhao Lie’s commando suffered heavy casualties.

     After Ye Mo jumped down, flying axes and countless arrows were fired in dense volleys, as if they were inexhaustible. Even the enemy’s shield soldiers suffered significant casualties, and the ordinary soldiers were struck down with precision.

     When the army’s morale is in chaos, only those with strong wills continue to fight, while the others run around and hide like headless flies.

     All of this proves that the enemy’s crossbow carts are far inferior to the array crossbow carts that Ye Mo and her Mohist brothers have repeatedly improved upon in terms of firing speed, quantity, and multifunctional attributes.

     The system sound continues——

   【Congratulations to the survivor Ye Mo for assisting our army in killing enemies (100/100) in the “Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period” copy, completing side quest 7, and the free point attribute +2. 】

   【Complete side quest 8: Assist in killing enemies (500/500), free point attribute +2. 】

   【Complete side quest 9: Assist in killing enemies (1000/1000), free point attribute +2. 】

   【Survivor Ye Mo has broken through the Mental threshold! Mental attribute +1】 ×3.

   【Survivor Ye Mo has broken through the Agility threshold! Agility attribute +1】 ×3.

   【Survivor Ye Mo has broken through the Strength threshold! Strength attribute +1】.

……

     Zhao Lie was so angry that his liver nearly exploded and his whole body was shaking. Where on earth did this woman in red come from? Their elite Chu army’s crossbowmen and archers couldn’t do anything to her!

     Even the usually rational military advisor clenched his fist, wishing he could cut off the red-clad woman’s legs and make her stop jumping all the time.

     The crossbowmen and archers on the walls of Chuyang City did not dare to look down, while the other generals were so frightened that they almost had a heart attack. Not to mention clapping and cheering, those densely packed arrows seemed to hit their bodies.

     Ye Mo dodged nimbly under the city wall, while they on the wall seemed to be pierced by thousands of arrows.

     How is this feeling different from that of Zhao Lie and the others?

     The local officials finally understood. The young lady had lied when she said she couldn’t escape. With her unparalleled martial arts skills, fleeing Chu was never a difficult task. In fact, every country would welcome her as a general, so she would never be at a loss for where to go.

     But the young lady stayed. What could be her reason for staying? Of course, it was for the Lord of Yangcheng! For the Mohist leader! For Chu Yangcheng, and for the people who lived there.”

     The officials covered their hearts with their hands and tears welled up in their eyes.

     Ye Mo was such a successful living target that both the Chu army and the Zhao army ignored the wide-open gate of Chuyang City for a quarter of an hour, and only some stray arrows shot in.

     City gate: “…”

     The grass wall behind the city gate: “…”

     The army behind the grass wall: “…”

     The difficult plan one failed, and the hell plan two is underway. Perhaps the young lady had anticipated this when she chose to wear red clothes, and used the city gate to distract attention just to appease people.

     “Hahaha! Sister Jing! Well done!” After Wang Xue laughed loudly towards the sky, she picked up the drumstick and rhythmically beat the last military music she had played before going to battle on the city wall.

     Red flags are waving and war drums are beating.

……

     The military advisor looked at the commandos who had suffered heavy casualties, and at the distance between the commandos and Chuyang City. He then remembered the city gate and Ye Mo who had been jumping in front of the city gate, and reminded Zhao Lie.

     So Zhao Lie immediately gave an order, letting the remaining tens of thousands of elite commandos rush forward to attack Chuyang City. They were fighting a team battle, not an individual battle!

     ‘Oh, he finally reacted. ’

     Ye Mo stopped jumping in place. She waited for about three seconds, then started running forward waving the red flag, facing the Chu army commandos. At the same time, the archers of Chuyang City stopped shooting arrows and flying crossbows.

     Zhao Lie’s eyebrows twitched and he had a bad feeling.

     Seeing that she was about 8 meters away from the assault team, Ye Mo threw the red flag in her hand towards the oncoming Chu army, then leaped in place and drew her bronze sword inlaid with jade (Strength +10, Agility +12, Constitution +12), and plunged straight into the heart of the confused Chu army.

     With a flick of her hand and a drop of her knife, she harvested the heads cleanly and neatly. When the red flag fell to the ground, she had killed the lives of more than fifty soldiers.

   【Complete side quest 5: Kill enemy soldiers (100/100), free point attribute +2】.

     Those who were severely wounded by flying axes and swords couldn’t escape the sweep of Ye Mo’s spiritual power. There was no need for finishing blows, light footwork alone was sufficient to eliminate them, preventing them from creating obstacles or crises for herself

     “Kill her! Whoever kills this woman will be rewarded with 100 coins and 100 steps, and promoted one level.” Zhao Lie was almost crazy.

     It was the military strategist who ordered his archers to cease fire and allow the general to finish off the enemy. After all, they were shooting their own troops. However, he was too afraid to voice his opinion to the furious Zhao Lie.

     The military advisor looked at the distance between the assault team and the city wall, and the distance between them and the support team. The Chu army was now in a very awkward position, which might have been calculated by the other side.

     If the Chu army took a step forward, he bet that the army of Chuyang City would also come out of the city gate.

     The number of troops in the battle between the two armies is not a problem, but now the Chu army is completely exhausted. What is even more unknown is how many people like the woman in red and unknown traps the other side has.

     Advance is not right, retreat is not willing.

     From the beginning to the end, they were fooled by the Chuyang City. The Mo Sect was indeed very powerful.

     The military advisor frowned: ‘Who is this woman in red? ’

……

     Upon hearing Zhao Lie’s order, the Chu Army commandos reacted quickly. They had no formation now and no longer cared about their war horses, but they had a common target, the enemy.

     Knives, swords, sticks, guns, hammers, arrows, hooks…all kinds of weapons are available.

     Ye Mo has learned martial arts for more than half a month and has learned more than 30 kinds of sword techniques, but now there are only two ideas in her mind – hiding and killing. All the sword techniques and footwork are for killing the enemy and protecting herself.

     Either she shuttles through the crowd, or she leaps over people’s heads. Her kicks can kill, and her sword can injure.

     What was even more terrifying was that there were also soldiers cooperating in the sneak attack, but Ye Mo seemed to have eyes all over her body, so their sneak attack was extremely difficult. Finally, they succeeded in the sneak attack with more people, but what they faced was the opponent’s intact arm. .

     And then, nothing happened. All the attackers were killed.

     Ye Mo, clad in red robes with matching armor, was stained with layer upon layer of blood. They couldn’t tell if it was her blood or that of the soldiers. With each fallen soldier, despair consumed them.

     That touch of red never left the sight of both armies. They witnessed a miracle, not one against a hundred, but one against a thousand, one against ten thousand. Such a scene may be unforgettable for a lifetime.

     Wang Xue: “Boom boom boom clang!”

     Wang Qi: “The boss is advances a thousand li a day, while I only manage 10 meters, please tell me the distance between me and the boss.”

     Reserve fanboys and fangirls: “Look up to the big big big boss!”

     If the reservists who had joined the army before still had a wrong understanding of the boss, now they can no longer look down on her. Those who have spoken ill of the boss even feel that her knife is slashing their own necks. Now they have nothing to do but Look up and have no other thoughts.

     Agents Zhang San and others were speechless.

     This Li Jing may be much more powerful than Lani Shannon in the Irish town copy. We can’t help but pay more attention to the survivor APP. In modern times, Li Jing is also capable of fighting against thousands of troops alone!

     Li Si emphasized: “Li Jing is Chinese.”

……

     Zhao Lie had been fooled too many times and was so angry that there were deep blood grooves on his hands. He finally realized that he couldn’t go on like this. He looked at the gate of Chuyang City and the 180,000 to 190,000 soldiers around it.

     “Zhao swears that one day I will massacre the entire Chuyang City with blood to avenge today’s bloodbath!”

     After struggling hard for a while, he finally gave the order to retreat.

     There were more than 20,000 people left in the commando team. They also received the order to retreat, but Ye Mo stepped forward and chased them for two or three miles.

     Seeing this scene, Zhao Lie hesitated again, but was persuaded by the military advisor, “General, this is a trap.”

     At this moment, Ye Mo flew forward a hundred meters with all her strength. A flying axe flew out towards the fleeing commandos. The target was none other than Zhao Lie. The target of the assassination this time was single and clear, which was – Zhao Lie.

     “General!”

     “General!”

     “General!”

     Zhao Lie was hit on the head by an axe and fell off his horse. Now, the Chu army was leaderless.

     Although Ye Mo did not hear the system prompt, she still took out a wooden whistle from her sleeve and blew it.

     “Shuu——”

     A clear whistle broke through the sky. After Ye Mo landed, she pointed her sword forward and uttered one word: “Attack!”
