Chapter 797: Fighting Northern Yan

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Little Phoenix Mountain where the Northern Yan army was stationed was in a special geographical location. It was easy to defend and difficult to attack. There were two ways to fight the Northern Yan army. One was to lure the Northern Yan army out, and the other was to attack from the canyon.

The former was unlikely. The Northern Yan army was not stupid. How could they come out easily? This was unless Helian Ye’s army arrived and ordered them to cooperate with him.

Then there was only the second way.

In the tent, Qin Canglan pointed at the map on the table. “Northern Yan must have set up an ambush on the mountains on both sides of the canyon. We have to deal with them first to ensure that the soldiers can successfully enter the canyon. General Leng, do you have any objections?”

Leng Kui said, “No objections!”

How could he not have any objections? Who was the commander? These plans should be formulated by him.

Qin Canglan pretended not to notice his unhappiness. “If you don’t have any objections, decide on the candidates for the surprise attack on the two mountain peaks. ”

Both sides had to send out a surprise attack team. They could not let either side take the risk alone, nor could they let either side monopolize the credit.

Leng Kui chose the mountain peak with the easier terrain on the west. Qin Canglan was not picky, and so the rest was his.

Xiao Duye was not too biased towards Leng Kui. He was more at ease with Qin Canglan as the commander.

‘l’ne tmal outcome ot tne discussion was tnat Qin canglan and Leng Kul’S trusted general, Kou Jun, would lead 20,000 troops to attack head-on. Su MO and Leng Kui’s eldest grandson, Leng Hua, would lead 20,000 troops to detour to the back of the Northern Yan army to surround and kill them. Leng Kui and 10,000 troops would stay in the barbican to prevent the Northern Yan army from coming to snatch the city after losing.

The remaining 10,000 troops split into two groups and were led by Su Xiaoxiao and Leng Kui’s second grandson, Leng Jue, to attack the east and west peaks.

In short, Leng Kui was worried about handing all his troops to Qin Canglan and the others. He had have his own people in the lead.

Qin Canglan was not as scheming as he was. He did not care about military merits. He only wanted to defeat Northern Yan.

After everyone received their missions, they immediately set off.

The surprise attack team went first.

Their mission was to attack the east and west peaks and then split their forces to support the attack below. The mission was quite heavy.

Su Xiaoxiao brought her 5,000 Crimson Shadow Army troops and arrived near Little Phoenix Mountain with Leng Jue and the others.

Leng Kui and Qin Canglan were of the same generation. His grandson was only a few years older than Su Xiaoxiao. Leng Jue was 18 years old this year and had followed Leng Kui to eliminate bandits at the border a few times. Leng Kui had once written to the Imperial Court to invite battle achievements for him, and he relied on the fact that he had battle achievements recognized by the Imperial Court to look down on Su Xiaoxiao.

He glanced at Su Xiaoxiao indifferently. “Don’t be a burden later!” Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “You should mind your own business.”

“Hmph.”

Leng Jue left with the elites of the Leng family without looking back.

“Jing Yi, let’s go.”

Su Xiaoxiao, Jing Yi, and their army quietly climbed up the mountain to the east.

They were very cautious along the way. They walked for a full two hours. The effect was immediate. The Northern Yan army really did not notice them.

Su Xiaoxiao and Jing Yi hid behind a thorny bramble.

Su Xiaoxiao asked softly, “Jing Yi, did you see it clearly? How many of them are there?”

“On our side, 2,000.” Jing Yi whispered and pointed opposite. “Leng Jue’s side has at least 6,000.”

His biological grandfather had chosen this for him.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Has Leng Jue gone up the mountain?”

This was a cooperation. No one could act alone because no matter who moved first, the opposite mountain would immediately be vigilant.

“Wait a little longer.” Jing Yi stared straight at the commotion opposite. After a moment, he said, “They’ve made their move.”

Su Xiaoxiao made a prompt decision. “Let’s attack too!”

Both sides immediately attacked the Northern Yan army on the mountain.

The Northern Yan army was caught off guard. At first, they were clearly flustered. However, the Northern Yan army, who had already suffered two defeats, would not be as careless as before. Those who could be despatched here were all elites.

They quickly adjusted themselves to receive the Great Zhou’s attack.

Su Xiaoxiao had always pursued the strategy of capturing the leader first to capture the bandits. She specialized in killing the powerful ones. Not only did this require extremely high martial arts to allow her to be at ease in the battle, but it also required extremely strong observation skills.

When she went to fight, Jing Yi would be her eye. When she went to observe the situation, Jing Yi would be her weapon.

“Found him! He’s there!”
