Chapter 631: Release The Supreme Commander From His Post, I’ll Do It (VIII)

Jiang Pengji wore red clothing and silver armor. She was an obvious target in the snow.

If the Red Lotus Group did not target her, who would they target?

But to Jiang Pengji, those thinly spread arrows that rained down on her seemed to be dozens of times slower.

She was fast, why could she not get away from them?

Yang Si found that Jiang Pengji was under the collective attack of the arrows and was so frightened that he nearly fell from his horse.

However, Wei Ci was proved right.

If Jiang Pengji fought him, Yang Si could have the use of both legs, one arm, and four fingers, and she could still choke him to death with just one finger.

Jiang Pengji brandished the long spear with great vigor. The dense shadow of the spear had almost turned into a shield, as she deflected the arrows. Watching her, Yang Si’s emotions went up and down as if he was riding a roller coaster. Little White rushed forward wildly. As a steed of the highest quality, he had a strong explosive power as well as endurance. He quickly left the rest of his species in the dust as he sped forth like a silver-white streak of lightning. The wall of the small town quickly approached.

Jiang Pengji’s goal was too obvious She had attracted almost all firepower onto herself.

Little White carried her along through the rain of arrows. Occasionally, one or two tricky arrows drew near, but Little White could quickly change direction to avoid them.

Such a scene caused a commotion in the livestreaming room.

Their viewing perspective was rather special. It was as if there was a camera suspended on Jiang Pengji’s head and they could adjust the angle of the lens by 360 degrees, as well as zoom in and out. This time, the camera gave them a long-range, high-angle shot. Not only could the viewers see the back of Jiang Pengji and the dust kicked up behind her horse, but also how she shot down the arrows. The speed was so fast that there were after-images!

Goddess Pengji: Husband, husband, you came to marry me on a big white horse? Don’t be anxious, I’ll go downstairs and open the door for you.

The College Entrance Examination Went Well: Oh no, she’s so handsome she could fly. Can I dump my husband and marry the host?

Cheers, Tomorrow: Love rival? Let’s fight!

To avoid any influence on her mood, Jiang Pengji had long ago turned off the bullet screen in the livestreaming room.

No matter how loudly the loser audience screamed, for the time being, she could not see the comments.

Carried by Little White’s long strides, Jiang Pengji easily fought her way to the town’s gate.

The town wall was only two zhang, which converted to six or seven meters in height. How could it stop the combination of Jiang Pengji and Little White?

About thirty meters away from the wall, Jiang Pengji stowed her long spear away, moved sideways, and bent to avoid the arrows. Then she raised his hand and pulled out a longbow and several arrows of her own. Without even looking, she pulled taut the bowstring with her right hand and several arrows shot out.

The dull sound of sharp weapons piercing flesh rang out. Several splatters of blood blossomed angrily. The Red Lotus members on the town wall fell at once.

The Vanguard Battalions caught up from behind and provided support in two wings.

In less time than it took to breathe in, Jiang Pengji had already fired several more arrows. Every arrow hit its mark. For each arrow that left the bow, a life was taken. By the time she had fired four waves of arrows, Little White had halted. Jiang Pengji used the opportunity to get down from the horse.

She took out the long rope secured to her waist and flung out the end with the metal hook. It wrapped around the battlement like a celestial snake.

Seeing more than 10,000 soldiers, under the wall, the Red Lotus members were so frightened that their knees went weak. There were only some hundreds of their members at this sentry outpost, less than a thousand.

Jiang Pengji had always liked fast-paced offenses. She never gave her enemy the chance to catch their breath.

After the long rope was wrapped around the battlement, she stepped firmly on the surface of the wall. As she pulled on the long rope, she tilted her body and pumped her legs to climb straight up the wall.

Before the Red Lotus Group could respond, she had quickly and efficiently ascended the town wall. What they faced head-on was the gleaming silver gun in her hands.

The soldiers below did not have such dashing movements as Jiang Pengji, but with her attracting the firepower from the top of the wall, it was not difficult for them to climb up. The Red Lotus Group had naively thought that a small town could stop Jiang Pengji and her army and buy them half a day.

Facts had proven that even a 30-minute estimation was too long.

Faced with the aggressive momentum of Jiang Pengji and her army, the Red Lotus Group was so scared that they had peed their pants earlier.

That was the skill that Jiang Pengji had shown in their very first confrontation. The Supreme Commander of the enemy’s Vanguard had already ascended the town wall and suppressed all of her enemies on the wall with outstanding skill. She had directly destroyed their momentum, shattering it like fragments of glass. After this, soldiers climbed up the wall. Each one of them was ruthless.

Before the Red Lotus Group could organize an effective resistance on the side, it was all over.

The main army had not even arrived, yet they had already taken down the small town and won. Their efficiency could be ranked first in the industry.

Yang Si wore a complex expression. Looking at the opened town gate, he could understand why Jiang Pengji had wanted to lead the Vanguard Battalion.

As the saying went, “An incompetent soldier is only one incompetent soldier, but an incompetent commander leads to an incompetent army.”

Only a ruthless commander could lead the fiercest elite soldiers. Jiang Pengji spoke little when fighting in a battle, for she disdained to fight with words.

To use the words of the viewers of the livestream…

“I’m the boss of society. I don’t talk much, but I’m ruthless.”

No need to put things nicely, she would confront you directly!

Jiang Pengji got Dian Yan to lead the Vanguard in cleaning up the battlefield, taking stock of the soldiers who were injured or shot dead by the arrows.

When the main army arrived, the gates were already opened, and the arrows under the town wall had all been cleaned up by the soldiers. If not for the bloodstains that could not be cleaned up in time, it would have been impossible to tell that a small-scale siege had broken out. Even though Qiguan Rang had been mentally prepared for this outcome, he was still shocked.

“We’ll take a day to rest and reorganize. As soon as day breaks tomorrow, we’ll go onto the mountain road.” Jiang Pengji squinted her eyes slightly. She was still in the red and white attire, but she no longer gave off the feeling of warmth that she had before. Instead, she exuded a terrifying and murderous air. “I’ve determined that it’s more or less the right time. ”

Qiguang Rang said, “The mountain road is very long, will you be taking minimal supplies and men?”

“Yes.”

Yang Si frowned and proposed, “It’d be better to bring two or three days’ worth of dry food. Although the Red Lotus Group is just a disorderly mob, they’re not completely brainless. It would not be fatal to us if they attack our grain transportation team, but it could still cause us some trouble… ”

Jiang Pengji sneered. Yang Si really overestimated the IQ of the Red Lotus Group.

“Well, we’ll do things according to what Jing Rong said.”

Some distance away, under the suggestion of his trusted aide, the scholar, the chief of the Red Lotus Group had transferred out most of the guards in Jinmen County. Now, the army in the county consisted of merely 3,000 men and the soldiers who were all old and weak. Coupled with the freezing temperatures, the fighting power that they could muster up was almost zero.

An Cui had already made preparations to support the battle. While contacting his informants, he urged his fellow brothers, who were guarding the city of Jinmen County, to be quick-witted.

After making these preparations, An Cui planned to create another series of troublesome events.

Through his informants, he passed on the information of the scholar’s location to Jiang Pengji. Everyone looked at the information, speechless.

Yang Si said disdainfully, “His brains are average, but his heart is certainly vicious.”

As it turned out, this 007 spy was very good. His acting was off the charts.

“We’ll do it according to plan. Send scouts into the mountain road first. Once the scouts find out that the troops at Jinmen County have been withdrawn, they are to report back to us immediately.”

Communication was inconvenient in that era. If they expertly played on the gap between the time the enemy received information and when they acted, they could toy with the enemy in the palms of their hands.

Jiang Pengji intended to take down Jinmen County as fast as possible, attacking one more city before the Red Lotus Group could respond.

No, Jiang Pengji’s appetite could not be satisfied with just one town. She planned to take down all of Chengde County in one burst of energy!

They found a simple thatched cottage that could shelter them from the wind and rain. There, everyone put their heads together to discuss how the troops should be deployed later on.
