Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 370 - 368

Chapter 370: Chapter 368

"Kill!" The soldiers of Xiyue Country, who were ambushed on the mountain, also rushed down towards the valley.

When the rain of arrows flew down, hundreds of figures swung their swords to block the incoming arrows, while leaping into the air to avoid the tumbling giant rocks.

After the rain of arrows and the bouldering attack.

Elite soldiers, swords in both hands, forward! One sword per man, they stabbed at the brave Xiyue soldiers who were directly charging down, one by one.

Because their momentum was too strong, they didn’t need to exert much force, they just had to aim at their opponent’s weak points. The swords easily pierced their bodies.

However, the elite soldiers were ultimately outnumbered, and many soldiers successfully charged down the mountain.

That’s fine, though! If they didn’t come down, they couldn’t be hit!

Down in the valley, scarecrows aer filled with arrows on each cart.

The soldiers who charged down to the valley were dumbfounded when they were ready to go on a killing spree!

Who should they kill? Who should they show off their might by taking on a hundred enemies? The scarecrows?

Why were they all scarecrows pushed on carts, lined up neatly below?

With hundreds of carts and countless scarecrows, some of the Xiyue soldiers wonder, isn’t making scarecrows tiring?

"It’s a trap; retreat, quickly!" Dalu quickly reacted.

Inside this valley, if both ends were blocked, even a bird couldn’t fly out.

"Want to retreat? In your dreams! Dalu, there’s a road to heaven but you won’t take it; there’s no door to hell, but you still want to break in! Don’t blame me!" General Li, leading a group of soldiers, blocked one end of the valley.

Just as Dalu was about to lead his soldiers towards the other end, the army of Shangguan Xuanjun arrived and blocked the road.

"Soldiers, kill! For every cut you suffered months ago, get it back double now! Let’s collect some interest today and fight big on another day, straight into the heart of Xiyue! Revenge for the fallen soldiers! Revenge for the people!"

"Revenge for the dead soldiers!"

"Revenge for the people!"

...

Xiyue’s soldiers, the people of Xiyue, suffer from harsh weather and scarcity of resources every year. They have no food during the winter. This harsh living environment forces them to fight! For a better life, they spare no effort!

Soldiers of Minze Country, because of the barbaric actions of Xiyue, have some who haven’t returned home in ten years!

The previous battle resulted in heavy loss!

New hatred added to old ones made them despise Xiyue soldiers to the bone!

Those who are revived from death use up all their strength for killing the enemy!

Want to survive? Then you have to fight harder than the enemy!

"We will not stop until we have crushed Xiyue dogs into dust!

Even if one of our limbs is gone, we still have to take out one of Xiyue dogs’ limbs!

So, another fierce battle began!

...

Xiyue only brought a few soldiers. Twenty thousand soldiers were hidden in each of the two valleys, totaling forty thousand.

Dalu originally thought that they had shot forty thousand arrows from the mountain and rolled down countless giant rocks, Minze’s army of one hundred thousand would have been mostly killed if not completely wiped out!

But now, he couldn’t help but close his eyes! It was simply unbearable!

When reality and imagination are too far apart, there is only one word to describe it; it’s called a sight too horrible to endure!

"Dalu, your life is over!" General Li arrived at Dalu’s side.

"You defeated general, never thought you would be this tough, not even dying from this!" Seeing General Li appearing in front of him alive, Dalu was actually shocked. This man had taken several blows and an arrow in his body, yet he hadn’t died. Since when did the medical skills of Minze Country reach the realm of resurrection?

"You Xiyue dogs don’t have the capability to take my life!" General Li glared at him.

"Arrogant! But I didn’t expect you, General Li, to also have such a despicable tactic. Too cunning! Even setting up a deceitful battlefield to trick us!"

General Li scoffed, "All’s fair in war! We just use their own medicine against them! If you weren’t so despicable, how would you have fallen for such a despicable trick?"

"Enough talk, come and fight!"

General Li, holding up his long spear, rushed towards him.

Another fierce battle between the two erupted.

In Yueluo Valley, the sounds of fighting and wailing echoed through the sky, and blood flowed into rivers!

The dawn gradually brightened...

When the last soldier of Xiyue Country fell, the cheers of more than one hundred thousand soldiers echoed, scaring the birds in the forest. They fluttered their wings, in groups, flying to a farther place.

This victory finally returned the lost morale to the soldiers.

"Hang Dalu dog’s head on the city gate for three days! Let the people in the border town vent their hatred, make people of Xiyue sullen!" General Li cut off Dalu’s head and kicked it to one of his men.

General Dingyuan’s clenched fists loosened and clenched, his face almost gave way.

General Li put away his long spear and came to General Dingyuan.

General Dingyuan hastily raised his cheerful smile and saluted, "Glad that you, General, are safe. Otherwise, our troops in the northwest would be leaderless!"

"I was fortunate enough to save my worthless life. I too thought it was certain death this time."

"What are you talking about, I thought your injuries were intentionally exaggerated."

I wonder who saved his sorry life.

"I received help and got a divine medicine, that’s all. Today, we annihilated Xiyue’s forty thousand soldiers in one battle. Let’s pull up some jars and celebrate!" General Li didn’t want to talk more, and changed the subject.

General Dingyuan carved a smile in his face a little bit forcibly and nodded: "General, how did you know Xiyue would ambush here?"

"It’s also because heaven helps us! The military doctor came to Yueluo Valley to collect herbs and discovered a large number of Xiyue soldiers acting surreptitiously so he snuck back to report it. The Sixth Prince in person came to verify the situation and he was the one who thought of this strategy!"

"It’s a good thing that the military doctor came to Yueluo Valley to collect herbs, otherwise our army would be doomed!" General Dingyuan said with a forced smile.

"Isn’t it! It was because Xiyue people injured our soldiers too badly, which caused us to run out of medicine. Otherwise, the military doctor wouldn’t need to go to collect herbs! Xiyue brought this disaster upon themselves!" Recalling that the grain storage was also saved by chance when their cavalry went hunting and ran into Xiyue robbers, General Li happily continued,

"Now heaven is helping us too, in this war, we’re going to give Xiyue a lesson they won’t forget, leaving none of them alive!"

Having heard this, General Dingyuan looked up at the heaven, wondering since when did heaven interfere so much.

"By the way, why did you pass through Yueluo Valley so late? I thought we were in for a tough fight tonight." General Li did some rough estimation of their journey, it’s somehow slower than he had thought.

When General Li brought up this matter, General Dingyuan’s face finally showed a bit of gloom, "Let’s not talk about this. Those bastards, they ate some roots..."

"There was such a thing? We need to be careful about this in the future! If the troops eat the wrong things before the battle, it’s certain to lead to the collapse of our army! But this time, you guys got diarrhea at just the right time."

Upon hearing this, General Dingyuan felt bitter inside.
