Her intuition told Yun Zihuang that she was in danger, and she immediately blew the whistle that represented danger. Fortunately, the Iron Guards were prepared for this. Many of the Iron Guards lowered their bodies after hearing the whistle. After hearing the sharp arrow piercing the air, they hid themselves at the side of the horse, or under the horse's belly.

In a moment of emergency, they controlled the horses to turn. Even so, many of the Iron Guards that were charging in front still fell!

The Iron Guard at the back turned his horse in time, and the horse made a beautiful turn, brushing past the sharp arrow.

In the deep darkness of the night, they could only sense the direction where the arrows were coming from, but they couldn't see where the enemies were. The Iron Guard, who had been injured and fallen, stood behind the corpses of the dead horses. He took out his bow and crossbow and counterattacked, giving his comrades a chance to retreat and survive.

It was actually a trap!

Yun Zihuang coldly looked forward, giving the order for the Iron Guards to retreat.

Every time, she would divide the Iron Guard into three teams. The first team would attack, the second would prepare reinforcements and reinforcements, and the third team would stay put. Fortunately, only the first group of people were attacked. In just a few short breaths, over a hundred Iron Guards had also fallen!

The Iron Guard's eyes turned red. They really wanted to charge over and avenge their comrades, but since the princess had issued the order to retreat, they could only retreat quickly and create some distance between them and the enemy. Seeing that there were still quite a few of their comrades left in the most dangerous places, squatting behind the corpses of their warhorses and confronting the enemy, they couldn't help but ask, "Princess, please command this lowly general to rescue them and bring them back."

She did not speak, but looked through the telescope.

The scouts did not notice anything amiss, which meant that the enemy was camouflaging themselves. Furthermore, they were camouflaging themselves very well. This was a trap specially set up for her. It was impossible for it to be simple as it had been set for an unknown period of time.

How much Duke Ba Tian hated her, she knew very well that if Duke Ba Tian captured her, he would definitely not kill her, because doing that would be too merciful. She was in deep thought. The Rising Sun Empire was so patient. What kind of trap did they set for her?

It couldn't be an ambush without moving, because as long as she didn't attack, she could avoid it.

Feng Ding berated sternly, "All of you shut up, the princess will make her decision!"

The Iron Guards immediately shut their mouths, not daring to say anything else. They clenched their teeth and looked at the Iron Guards who were left in front of them. If it weren't for their rescue, those comrades of his definitely wouldn't have lasted long. They would have all been killed by the enemy forces.

As expected, rows and rows of heavy shields appeared among the enemy troops, moving forward to protect the people behind. They advanced step by step towards the Iron Guards who were hiding behind the corpses of the war horses. When these enemies arrived in front of the horse corpses, they would fight against the Iron Guard. Dozens of Iron Guards were injured, most of them were not a match for the enemy.

The Iron Guards had two choices. They immediately turned around and ran, or they could only wait for the enemies to come to them and fight to their deaths.

Yun Zi Huang said to Feng Ding in a low voice, Feng Ding's eyes lit up, and immediately led his group to rush over. They were standing on their horses, a stone's throw away from the enemy. They were shooting arrows at the enemy from high altitudes and giving orders for the Iron Guards who were hiding behind the corpses of their horses to retreat.

"Da Da Da …"

The heavy sound of hooves broke the silence of the night as they slowly approached from all directions. Their speed was not fast, but they brought about a huge pressure. It was as if they were stepping on top of one's heart!

Dozens of Iron Guards were rescued and the enemy slowly retreated with their shields raised. However, at this moment, a huge change occurred in the confrontation between the two sides.

"Reporting, there are over a thousand heavy cavalry soldiers in the west!"

"Reporting, there are over a thousand heavy cavalry soldiers in the north!"

"Reporting, there are over a thousand heavy cavalry soldiers in the south!"

The Iron Guards' expressions became heavy. There were thousands of heavy cavalry soldiers in each of the three directions. Who knew how many enemies were ambushing in front of them? They were already besieged here, the enemy was several times stronger than them, and they were also the most powerful heavy cavalry soldiers!

When the light cavalry encountered heavy cavalry, the only thing they could do was to escape, but they had nowhere to run!

Fighting with heavy cavalry in front of light cavalry was equivalent to suicide!

Even if the enemy had the same number of heavy cavalry as the Iron Guards, the light cavalry was still far from being a match for the heavy cavalry.

Danger lurked in every direction!

How many more ambushes were waiting for them in the deep night? How many tricks and troops did the enemy have left?

A flame lit up on the opposite side. A warhorse slowly advanced and appeared in the flames. A great general sat on the horse and loudly said, "Yun Zihuang, Princess Taiping, I have been waiting for you here for a long time."

"Sorry for the trouble, General."

The general sneered, "Yun Zihuang, I'll give you a chance. If you dismount and surrender, the grand duke says that as long as you surrender, I'll spare your life."

"Just spare my life. I think it's not enough yet. What should I do?"

"Do you think you have the qualifications to speak on conditions? Tonight, there are five thousand heavy cavalry soldiers. Even if you have wings, don't think you can escape! "

"Why should I run?"

She looked at the general smilingly, "Use the soldiers of the Empire of Ascension to accompany me in my death. This scale is big enough, moreover, there is the death of the Duke of Sky."

"Don't try to talk too fast. If you don't get off the horse and surrender, you and these thousand people will all die!"

"You, the dukes, will personally lead the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Rising Sun Empire to die with us!"

The general coldly raised his hand and pointed at Yun Zi Huang, his eyes filled with killing intent: "Little girl, don't even think of threatening me. If you dismount and kneel down, you can even preserve your life!"

"Sigh, even Duke Ba Tian doesn't mind letting over 10,000 officers die with me, could it be that he's willing to die with me? May I ask if your family's Grand Duke is getting more and more ill? "

The general laughed coldly, "Yun Zihuang, surrendering your horse to me is your only choice. I will give you ten breaths of time. If you exceed the time limit, kill them, and don't leave a single one alive!"

Feng Ding said in a low voice, "Princess, choose a direction to break out of the siege. This general will definitely protect the princess as she breaks out of the siege."

"Don't worry, let's get everyone ready for battle."

Breaking through was a must, but choosing a direction was extremely difficult. In three different directions, there were over a thousand heavy cavalry units. Only the situation in front of them was unknown. However, no one knew if there were any more ambushes after the heavy cavalry, and no one could believe what the enemy general had said. If the general was telling the truth, where were the two thousand heavy cavalry?

Was it in front?

Or was it in another direction?

Or were they lying in ambush in different directions?

When she had discovered that the enemies were lying in ambush, she had secretly sent Yunhai to the front to investigate the enemy's situation. However, Yunhai had not returned. Ten breaths of time passed in an instant. She wasn't sure whether this general would be threatened by her!

"Prepare to attack."

The general raised his hand and said loudly. He said with a cold voice, "Yun Zihuang, the moment my hand is put down is the time of your death!"
