Chapter 338 Next Target: The Royal Court

"Bang bang bang bang!"

"Shhhhhhh!"

Muskets and arrows fired simultaneously, three volleys of fire before the slow-moving infantry could react. After a large number of men fell to the ground, cavalry charged down from both sides, and the infantry were almost instantly scattered by their iron hooves, making it easy to kill them.

Facing the shocked cavalry, Shen Li abandoned her previous panicked demeanor, flicked the general's saber away with her spear, knocked the man off his horse, and ordered, "Tie him up."

Standing on the corpses of nearly ten thousand people, Shen Li ordered the flags to be waved, and eight thousand people headed towards the Right Wise King's tribe under the cover of darkness.

Although the tribe was large, it had deployed all its elite troops, and the troops were caught completely off guard when they set out that night. They were easily overwhelmed by a single charge from the cavalry.

Screams and the cries of frightened children soon filled the tribe. Shen Li led her troops into the camp to burn their stockpiled grain, some of which had been sent by the Great Liang and others stolen from the Great Zhao.

The Rongdi soldiers were all disheveled and completely unprepared for this large-scale attack, and were all captured alive.

Shen Li has keen senses. She heard the screams of women in the military camp. After the Rongdi soldiers were dragged out, she also found many naked women in the main tent.

The women were covered in wounds and initially looked terrified, but when they saw that it was the army of the Great Zhao, they seemed to see their saviors.

Shen Li knew that these clothes were looted from Da Zhao by the Rongdi people, so she quickly ordered someone to send them over.

"General, we are all respectable women from the Great Zhao Dynasty. Please save us and send us back." The women knelt before the horse, weeping.

The flames of the burning grain supplies illuminated the tragic faces of the women, and the soldiers of the Great Zhao were filled with rage and fury.

"Kill." Shen Li glanced at the disheveled Rongdi soldiers kneeling on the ground, her voice cold.

"But sir, they have surrendered. We cannot kill them, lest it cause a mutiny," Chen Su advised.

"Kill." Shen Li repeated the word again: "Leave no one alive!"

Archers on all sides simultaneously drew their bows, and thousands of defenseless surrendered soldiers fell instantly, their blood flowing like a river.

The twenty-odd women were quite frightened, but they all looked at Shen Li as if she were their savior.

"I've avenged you." Shen Li looked at the women, her expression compassionate yet resolute: "As for you, I don't have enough troops to escort you back. If you want to leave, then come fight with me."

These words surprised not only the women, but also Ma Zheng, who was following them.

"My lord, this woman..." Ma Zheng started to say, but then looked at Shen Li's face and abruptly changed the rest of his sentence: "How can this weak woman fight a war?"

Shen Li ignored him and instead took off her helmet and patiently said to the women, "War is tough and involves life and death. Have you thought about whether you want to leave?"

“We’ll die here anyway, let’s go.” A woman kowtowed to Shen Li: “We’ll go to war with you, sir.”

"Yes, we'll kill those damned Rongdi people. Killing one is enough, and killing more is a bonus."

“We follow the adults. If men can fight, so can we women.”

The women all spoke out indignantly.

Shen Li's expression was both gratified and complicated. She really wanted to save these people, but although she seemed to be invincible as she ventured deep into enemy territory, once word got out, there would inevitably be pursuers on all sides.

She had only one path: to move forward, to continue the advance into the enemy's lair, and to penetrate deep into their territory.

She and the other eight thousand people only had one chance to survive, let alone these unfortunate women.

"Miss, where do we go next?" Peony asked softly.

Shen Li gazed at the dawning sky ahead and slowly said, "The Chanyu's Royal Court."
