Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress

Chapter 776: Chapter 773: Helping Hand_1

In the Qingxi Mountain Valley Road, horses trod through puddles, and mud splashed everywhere.

Rain lashed across Bai Qingyan’s face like a blade, stinging sharply. But she dared not hesitate for even a moment.

The fierce battle at the Qingxi Mountain Pass continued. The Jin Army gradually advanced, and the city gate was being battered relentlessly. Two small squads of soldiers assigned by Liu Hong within the Qingxi Mountain Pass finally drew their blades, engaging in close combat with the Liang soldiers who were using their bodies to block the battering ram.

Inside the heavy, thick iron-clad wooden gate of the Qingxi Mountain Pass… two squads of Jin soldiers fought a bloody melee with the Liang soldiers pressed against the gate. Outside, the armored battering ram violently crashed into the city gate several times, nearly breaking it down but always falling just short.

Standing on top of the war chariot, Liu Hong was burning with anxiety. This battle was much tougher than he had imagined!

The current Liang soldiers could not be compared to the Zhao family’s troops. After their previous defeat following Xun Tianzhang on an expedition, they had been coldly treated by the Emperor of Liang for some time. Now, they were fighting desperately, as Zhao Sheng had pledged his life for this opportunity at the Qingxi Mountain Pass.

At this moment, Liu Hong was even more worried about Bai Jinzhi. He had allowed Bai Jinzhi to pick her own men to take with her, but the daring young girl had only taken five hundred. Liu Hong had then dispatched an additional thousand to assist.
