C363 Troop Divide

In his heart, he had a rough understanding of Xie Qingrong. She was proficient in martial arts, outstanding in abilities, with both intellect and wisdom, and was proficient in strategy and strategy.

Wouldn't it be even more interesting if he fought with such a person?

As Gongsun Heng's trusted aide, Yan Yi not only had outstanding abilities. Towards strong people, other than admiration, they also felt the desire to defeat them.

Xie Qingrong saw that the one who was originally leading had already been replaced, and the person who replaced it, looked like a person with extraordinary skills.

He chuckled, with an unknown meaning, and returned the bow and arrow back to the little soldier, and instructed Jiang Yizhou: "The entire army is under martial law, act according to I's previous orders."

Jiang Yizhou replied respectfully: "Yes, Crown Princess."

Xie Qingrong opened the umbrella that was originally placed on the ground, as her back faced Army of Chu.

Quite a few moments later, the umbrella was filled with arrows.

She turned to the side and saw that her soldiers were all holding up umbrellas, and like her umbrellas, they were filled with arrows.

Ye Zichen's eyes darkened, but he revealed an ice-cold smile that could barely be heard.

Yesterday, she had discussed in private with General Lin An about the temporary withdrawal of the Army of Chu. General Lin An had surmised that the Army of Chu would regroup and take advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, slowly making her way into the Jiang Zhou City.

Therefore, she and General Lin An had already prepared beforehand and specially prepared an umbrella to protect themselves from arrows. The umbrella also had an item to block off arrows.

Xie Qingrong threw the umbrella beside her hand onto the ground, and already had a hand on the violet-gold whip tied around his waist. Since the first day she had accepted it, she had kept it tied around his waist.

Yan Yi did not hear the screams of the people being shot by the arrows, he could not help but feel suspicious, and wanted to order the troops to rest at their original spots, so that he could go and have a good look.

The trusted aide by Ye Jiaze's side, along with Ye Jiaze's dictation, whispered a few words into Yan Yi's ears. Yan Yi hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he threw aside any thoughts of doubt and concentrated on groping the city gate tower.

"Is everyone ready?" Xie Qingrong observed Army of Chu's movements as she asked Jiang Yizhou who was beside him.

Jiang Yizhou said: "Everything has been prepared. When the Army of Chu arrives at the moat, he will definitely give them a good fruit to eat. "

Xie Qingrong slightly nodded her head, her right hand tightly holding onto the violet-gold whip.

Although there was a layer of fire oil on the moat, it could take advantage of the fact that Army of Chu was not on guard and injure him greatly. However, once the oil on the river was completely burnt, the Army of Chu would definitely be able to cross the river and come here.

Today's battle would surely be extremely difficult.

Although the Army of Chu was careful in her movements, there were inevitably some rustling sounds, and the light sound gradually approached the moat.

Jiang Yizhou tightly covered his mouth, a little afraid that he would make a sound out of nervousness, and attract the Army of Chu's attention.

Xie Qingrong's eyes were fixated on the Army of Chu's footsteps.

One had already entered the moat.

Very good, the first row of Army of Chu had already completely entered the moat, the second row of Army of Chu had already stepped into the river, and the first row of Army of Chu had swam to the center.

As Yan Yi followed the Army of Chu and slowly entered the moat, it was as if the tip of his nose smelled a very unpleasant odor that was extremely pungent.

He almost fainted here.

This smell sounded a little familiar, and Yan Yi's nose twitched slightly. It seemed that the answer in his heart was about to be revealed.

"Fire the rockets!"

A light, yet indifferent voice suddenly rang out from the top of the city gate tower.

Arrows rained down like rain from the sky. In mid-air, sparks of fire suddenly appeared at the tip of the arrow and fell into the water.

"Boom —"

The scarlet fire was instantly ignited.

Just as Yan Yi was about to pour out the two words "fire oil", he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

With the help of the fire oil, the fire suddenly became fierce and fierce, becoming more and more intense. If the Army of Chu in the third row weren't too far away from them and hadn't even stepped into the moat, they would probably be burnt down too.

Yan Yi shouted loudly, "Hold your breath! "Into the water!"

In the blink of an eye, all the Army of Chu sank into the water. The flames on their bodies were drowned by the water, but it was difficult to cover up the pain of being burned by the fire.

Furthermore, they were holding their breath and focusing only for half a minute. How could they continue to stay in the water without breathing?

The red light of the fire had dyed half the sky red, yet the fire continued to rise.

Yan Yi's brain was working extremely quickly, trying to think of a way to solve the problem. The moat was a bit wide, if he was swimming forward while holding his breath, it shouldn't be a problem.

Thus, Yan Yi took the lead and walked in the direction that he had originally planned. The Army of Chu behind him followed suit one after another as he watched Yan Yi's actions.

Although the fire was gradually growing stronger, Jiang Yizhou discovered that the Army of Chu on the surface of the river had disappeared. He panicked a little and said, "Crown Princess, Army of Chu is hiding in the middle of the water, what should we do if they take the chance to swim to the other side?"

Xie Qingrong slightly raised her hand and said: "Lord Jiang, no need to panic.

When Yan Yi floated to the surface of the water and felt the intense flames, he immediately flew far away from the shore. Looking at the corpses on the river, he felt a bit sad.

Although there were only a small number of casualties, it was still a bad omen for the team.

He pursed his lips and saw that the third row of Army of Chu had yet to move on the other side of the river.

Due to the rapid pace of the fire, the temperature of the water in the moat had gradually risen. On the surface of the water, there was a huge fire. It was difficult to get close to the body of the fire.

It seemed like he could only rely on them.

The Army of Chu surfaced one after another, lined up and waited for Yan Yi's orders.

"Attack the city!" Yan Yi said loudly.

On the other side of the moat, the third row of Army of Chu s immediately pulled their bows, and the ones who had already succeeded in crossing the river laid their previously prepared escalators on top of the city walls.

When Xie Qingrong heard the two words "Yan Yi's attack" resounding across the battlefield, his voice was deep and resounding. He pursed his lips, and a sense of danger swept past his heart.

The voice seemed to be channeling his internal energy, seemingly transmitting some sort of message.

Not good!

This was a message to Ye Jiaze!

The Army of Chu that had hinted that Ye Jiaze was preparing to attack the West Side Tower had successfully crossed the river and was currently preparing to attack the city, while Ye Jiaze would definitely split the remaining Army of Chu into several parts and attack the various city gates of the Jiang Zhou City in succession.

If that was really the case, then the Jiang Zhou City was in danger.

His left hand slowly tightened into a fist, his right hand was also tightly holding onto the violet-gold whip, his brain working at lightning speed.

The main tower was guarded by General Lin An, so it should not be too big of a mess. He was in charge of the West Side Tower, and there were only a few West Side Tower s in the palace.

Then, only the North City Tower and the South City Tower were left. These two locations were very complicated, Ye Jiaze would not be stupid enough to hastily enter these dangerous areas.

Firstly, it was a waste of time, and secondly, it was a waste of energy.
