Chapter 540 - 540 537 The Silver Armored Woman_1
?Chapter 540: Chapter 537: The Silver Armored Woman_1 Chapter 540: Chapter 537: The Silver Armored Woman_1 A thousand light cavalry crossbowmen aimed at the sky. Countless arrows whistled as they shot out, seemingly about to break through the heavens, then quickly descended under the billowing black clouds, striking the heavy shields of the Nanrong soldiers with such force that it nearly knocked down the shield-bearers.
The Dengzhou Army was most famous for its light cavalry crossbowmen.
The light cavalry crossbowmen did not need precision but rather speed, and the ability to fire thousands of arrows to force the enemy to retreat and hesitate from advancing.
Bai Qingyan and Dong Changlan were both clear on their mission: they were here to rescue, not to fight. As long as they could bring Princess Mingcheng of Yan back to Dengzhou City, that would suffice. Hence, they only brought elite light cavalry for a quick snatch and escape.
Xiao Rongyan, holding Princess Mingcheng, charged through the encirclement surrounded by his guards fighting fiercely. Taking advantage of the arrow rain coming from behind, the Rong army retreated under heavy shields. Xiao Rongyan’s guards saw hope and fought even harder, attempting to carve a bloody path out for Xiao Rongyan.
Blades and swords clashed, sparks flying. The maid trembled, her face pale and sweating profusely. She bit her lips hard to resist the urge to switch places with the nanny nearby. Tears streamed down her face, but she dared not cry out. Instead, she pressed tightly against the wound on Princess Mingcheng’s neck, staying close to Xiao Rongyan and keeping her head down. Arrows whizzed past her ears, making her even more afraid to scream, fearing that if she showed fear… Xiao Rongyan and his men might abandon her.
The Nanrong army saw the reinforcement of light cavalry had arrived and began to retreat towards their commander-in-chief, the Ghost-faced General. Xiao Rongyan’s guards and the Yan Wedding Escort Guards, seeing this, put all their remaining strength into protecting Xiao Rongyan and breaking out.
