The morning wind was still a bit chilly. Nalan Xuyan's army had already arrived under Jiangcheng. The army was pressing down on the border. This first battle was particularly important. Nalan Xuyan was still thinking about how long this battle would last.
But Nalan Fengjin looked at the towering city wall and smiled strangely. Then he said softly: "Order your troops and go to war. The Ai family will fight in person."
When she arrived in front of the formation, facing the deafening shouts of tens of thousands of soldiers, Nalan Fengjin not only did not shout out the heroic spirit that she had been brewing for a long time, but was also shaken by the loud voice. The child is buzzing. Only then did I realize that going into battle to kill the enemy was no fun at all.
Nalan Fengjin stood in front of the formation, raising her spear and waving it in front of the formation to boost her morale. A large roar behind her made her tremble and she almost couldn't hold the spear. I couldn't help but feel depressed. I was used to using short weapons, and this long spear was really a burden.
She breathed calmly and stared at the opponent's camp from a distance. A gap opened and a person came out. The man was riding a horse, holding a long knife in his hand. He stretched it out in the air and roared loudly. Even the drummer seemed to have an extra pair of hands.
Nalan Fengjin could tell who was coming just from the big sword, and her heart trembled. It was Xiang Shuran who was fighting against her.
Just when she was about to ride forward to fight, there was a sudden roar behind her. She was startled. When she looked back, Nalan Xuyan appeared behind her.
She rode up to him and whispered, "I'll come."
Nalan Xuyan said: "Can you really do it? You are good at fighting alone, but this is your first time to go on an expedition after all."
Nalan Fengjin said: "Trust me. Prepare your bow and arrows."
Nalan Xuyan's eyes darkened and he murmured: "My indulgence towards you scares even myself."
Nalan Fengjin smiled and said: "Then continue to indulge."
Nalan Xuyan said: "Be careful, if you can't beat him, run away."
Nalan Fengjin smiled and said: "As a prince, you run away from the battlefield? How do you want me to deal with myself?"
Nalan Xuyan said: "It's okay. Even if he runs away, it won't affect your reputation. Why do you have to kill him? How about capturing him?"
"For teasing my future sister-in-law, I can only pay with my life." Nalan Fengjin replied.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and they understood each other without words.
Nalan Fengjin turned his horse's head sideways, raised his gun and ran toward Xiang Shuran. After running a few feet, she turned back to look at Nalan Xuyan. She found that every time she walked far away, she could always catch his gaze when she subconsciously looked back. Just like this moment.
She suddenly had a feeling that if he was always behind her in this world, she might not be afraid even if there were thorns in front of her. Thinking of this, Nalan Fengjin was refreshed. When he turned back to look at Xiang Xuran, he was already confident and calm.
Nalan Xuyan ordered someone to get a bow and arrow and hold it in his hand.
Xiang Xuran would not hurt her, but he would probably capture her alive. From the moment Xiang Xuran suddenly appeared on the battlefield, Nalan Xuyan knew it in his heart.
His eyes followed Nalan Fengjin for an instant, not knowing whether what he did was right or wrong. After all, the battlefield was different from other places. Xiang Shuran had never lost a single fight on the battlefield since he was young. He was "No. 1 in the world". The title of "fierce general" is by no means unfounded, and it is difficult even for him to match him. He looked at the two people in the field, and the horse seemed to feel his uneasiness, and took a few steps in place manically.
He didn't want to take her under his wings and protect her blindly. He didn't want to restrict anything she wanted to do. Not only would he not restrict it, he would fully support her.
Sometimes she was confused, but never willful, sometimes reckless, but never irrational. At this moment, her confidence and light on the battlefield made him raise his lips, and she made him trust her.
He tightened his grip on the bow and arrow, believing her.
Rushing to the front of the formation, Nalan Fengjin abandoned his horse and threw his spear. Upon seeing this, Xiang Shuran also dismounted, and the two of them drove their horses back.
Nalan Fengjin already held the Youlan Sword in his sleeve and said with a smile, "I can finally fight you."
Xiang Zhuran was still puzzled just now, but when he saw the sword in her hand, he already understood. But he didn't expect that the real her was more beautiful, and then said: "I can't wait anymore."
Nalan Fengjin blinked and said, "It's embarrassing if you can't beat a woman."
Xiang Shuran said: "I will capture you alive."
Nalan Fengjin said: "You are still the first person who wants to capture me alive."
Xiang Shuran said: "Why not?"
Nalan Fengjin raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Not only are you lustful, you are also very thick-skinned."
Xiang Shuran smiled and said: "How about asking Her Royal Highness the Princess to accept me into the harem?"
"You want me to be included in the harem. Who do you think you are? The most powerful general in the world. What a pity."
Xiang Xuran was startled. Then there was disdain.
Nalan Fengjin had already taken action, and the Youlan Sword in his hand produced a beautiful sword flower. In an instant, it was filled with brilliance.
When it comes to martial arts, Xiang Shuran is no match for Nalan Fengjin. When it comes to physical strength, Nalan Fengjin is no match for Xiang Shuran. But when it comes to weapons, Nalan Fengjin's weapons are too overbearing.
In the world, apart from Nalan Xuyan's Nine Heavens Soft Sword and Chu Tianyou's Yun Tian Sword, which are comparable to her Youlan Sword, Xiang Shuran's long sword cannot take advantage of her at all.
In the first battle in Yecheng, Xiang Shuran would be injured when facing the Youlan Sword, but not this time. Xiang Shuran already had a strategy to deal with Nalan Fengjin’s Youlan Sword, so Nalan Fengjin couldn’t hurt Xiang Shuran for the time being. However, Xiang Shuran was looking for Nalan Fengjin's flaws and patiently waiting for the opportunity. The situation was not conducive to Nalan Fengjin.
This was the first time that Nalan Xuyan's lieutenant Wuying saw Nalan Fengjin fight with someone. Her martial arts and strength were truly astonishing. What's even more astonishing is that she faces the invincible number one general Xiang Shuran on the battlefield of men. Wuying's heart was once again shocked by this princess who was too beautiful, acted too weird, had a weird personality, and was extremely courageous.
Except for Wuying, all the soldiers behind Nalan Xuyan took a breath of air, sweating profusely, thinking that they should try to stay away from her when they see her in the future. This eldest lady is so terrible.
Just after a dozen moves, Xiang Shuran started to turn from defense to attack, when Nalan Fengjin suddenly shouted: "I won't fight."
Xiang Zhuran saw Nalan Fengjin turning around and trying to escape. He was not willing to let go easily, so he chased after him with a knife. One flew in front and the other chased behind. The distance was getting closer and farther away. All the officers and soldiers were stunned when they saw the two men running around the circle in front of the two armies and chasing each other. The situation was extremely ridiculous.
Only Nalan Xuyan saw the fleeting look in Nalan Fengjin's eyes.
At this time, Nalan Xuyan had bent his bow and set an arrow, and the bowstring was full. Nalan Fengjin ran towards the direction of Nalan Xuyan, Xiang Shuran was chasing after her, the two of them were very fast. Nalan Fengjin lowered his head suddenly, and Xiang Shuran felt something coming towards his face and subconsciously lowered his head to dodge. But the helmet fell down with a crash.
Xiang Xuran stopped, his loose hair flying in the wind, and an arrow was clearly stuck on the helmet that rolled down on the ground. He narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly looked at Nalan Xuyan.
Nalan Xuyan's second arrow has been fired. As Xiang Xuran dodged, he suddenly felt a chill on his cheeks and neck. It was Nalan Fengjin's Youlan Sword that cut his cheeks and neck. Xiang Xuran jumped back a few steps and was already out of the attack range of Nalan Fengjin. Traces of blood seeped out from his face and neck, forming blood beads and dripping down drop by drop.
Nalan Fengjin turned around and smiled at Nalan Xuhui.
Xiang Xuran was shocked, knowing that he could not get any advantage today, so he decided to withdraw his troops and think of countermeasures.
But when he looked at Nalan Fengjin, he saw that she had sheathed the Youlan Sword and the arrows in her hand were full: "Xiang Shuran, goodbye." As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Ling's feather arrows came through the air.
Xiang Xuran dodged awkwardly, and was furious. This woman was not fighting, she was playing a trick on herself. So he came to fight with his sword. Nalan Fengjin fired three arrows in succession but none of them hit Xiang Shuran. Seeing that Xiang Shuran was approaching, Nalan Fengjin flew up and flew away from Xiang Shuran. At this moment, Nalan Fengjin's alluring face passed by Xiang Shuran with a beautiful smile. Xiang Shuran was stunned for a moment, and the Youlan sword passed by.
Xiang Shuran was stunned on the spot. Nalan Fengjin stood still on the battlefield, looked at Xiang Shuran's army in front of him, slowly raised his right hand and waved it gently.
The next moment, even Nalan Xuyan was stunned. As Xiang Shuran's body crashed to the ground, countless arrows flew from all directions, flying straight towards Xiang Shuran's army. From the back of Nalan Xuyan's army, countless figures flew out like ghosts.
Nalan Fengjin flew back to his horse, and four figures landed beside Nalan Fengjin. Nalan Fengjin smiled and said: "Kill, take Jiangcheng."
The four of them nodded and a firework exploded into the sky, causing shouts of death. And the gate of Jiangcheng suddenly opened at this moment.
"I'll leave the rest to you. King Jin's troops have already attacked Jiangcheng from behind. One hundred and eight Yanyun are riding in the city to support you." Nalan Fengjin returned with a smile on his horse and swayed leisurely. military camp.
Nalan Xuyan stared at her blankly for three seconds and then gave the order.
The shouts of killing were already shaking the sky. One hundred and eight Yan Yun cavalry bloodbathed the Xiang Mansion according to Nalan Fengjin's order. All the forces belonging to the Du family in Jiangcheng were cut off on this day.
By the time Nalan Xuyan Mingjin retreated his troops, it was already evening.
"Jiangcheng has been cleaned up, what are your next plans?" Nalan Xuyan asked.
"Jiangcheng is under your control. I will immediately issue an edict to confer your father the title of Prince of Seven Pearls, canonize you as Prince Xuan, and grant him the crown of Five Pearls. You must step up efforts to clean up the chaos around Jiangcheng. Also, open warehouses to release grain. Stabilize Jiangcheng, reduce taxes, and recuperate." Nalan Fengjin said.
"My father said that it would be right to follow you. I was still doubtful at first, but now it turns out that it is true. Our Zhennan Palace now has a lot of troops, and the power is overwhelming." Nalan Xuyan said.
"Well, just hold on, I'm very relieved about your family." Nalan Fengjin smiled.
In the fifty-eighth year of the Qianming Dynasty, Princess Phoenix regained Jiangcheng. From then on, southern Xinjiang was peaceful for a generation.
