After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Chapter 265 I Want to Eliminate You Early

As soon as Chu Xi climbed onto the city wall, he saw Jiang Zhenyao being attacked from both sides.

She had no one to help her.

No, she was surrounded.

It’s not that others are unwilling to help her, but that the other soldiers are isolated.

The defenders in Xi'an city were originally soldiers trained by Jiang Zhenyao's father, and they were very familiar with Jiang Zhenyao.

Jiang Zhenyao's father is the Duke of Weiguo. Although he has been stationed at the border for many years, he is not fully trusted by His Majesty.

If Chu Xi and Zhou Yichen had not planned to transfer him back to the capital this time, the lord of Xi'an City who was besieged at this time would not be Han Yaojun, but someone else.

This person must not be a brave and combative general, and is most likely on par with Wang Youren.

When faced with such a commander, no matter how brave and skilled the soldiers are, they will be surrounded by enemies.

If the commander surrenders, morale will inevitably be greatly reduced.

Coincidentally, one of the main generals sent by Western Chu to lead the troops was an acquaintance of Chu Xi!

The direct descendant of the Qi family——Qi Minsong!

Qi Minsong sat high on his horse, looking at the south gate city wall with sharp eyes, and saw a familiar figure appearing on the top of the wall.

The young man with a high ponytail, holding a silver sword, swept across with his sword, and his posture was unstoppable. He looked very familiar. Qi Minsong raised his eyebrows, the son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

Yes, I almost forgot about him.

I heard before that Chu Jiang joined the army and came to the border.

I didn’t expect it to be Xi’an.

Coincidentally, the two of them always meet each other.

"Did the General see anything?"

Qi Minsong's unusual excitement was noticed by the deputy general beside him, who couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Saw an acquaintance."

"...an acquaintance?" The deputy general was puzzled.

"It's okay. Tell them to continue attacking the city. Leave this man to me. Even if he dies, he must die in my hands!"

The deputy general followed Qi Minsong's line of sight and saw the young man swinging his sword to kill people cleanly and efficiently, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

They had never seen such a dazzling and powerful person before. Could it be that reinforcements had arrived from Xi'an City?

Jiang Zhenyao was surprised. "Why are you here? Doesn't the north gate need someone to guard it?"

"The north gate has been dealt with." Chu Xi blocked four or five spears with one sword, saved Jiang Zhenyao at the critical moment, and pulled the person to his left.

She had to deal with the large number of Western Chu soldiers on the right side alone.

Jiang Zhenyao had been fighting all night and was now exhausted, so Chu Xi’s help came at the right time.

If it had been any later, she might have been injured.

Her right arm had been scratched by the tip of a spear, leaving a wound that had not yet been treated.

After hearing Chu Xi's words, she was stunned, as if she didn't understand.

"Has it been dealt with?"

"Well, I went to look for reinforcements. The rebels at the north gate were defeated and fled. They probably won't go back." Chu Xi's words didn't affect his performance at all.

He clenched the sword in his hand tightly. With him standing in front, Jiang Zhenyao behind him would not be hurt, and even blood would not splash on her.

"Reinforcements?" Jiang Zhenyao had gone to the east and west gates a few days ago, before the war broke out at the South Gate and before the 80,000-strong Western Chu army crossed the river.

Judging from the fact that the city gates on both sides were surrounded, it should not be an easy task to get help.

Chu Xi just nodded and didn't explain in detail.

He didn't say anything, and Jiang Zhenyao didn't ask any further questions.

She was wielding a spear. As a spear player, if one didn't handle the spear well, it would only hold one back. But if one handled it well, it would be powerful and every move would be as powerful as thunder and shocking.

She did not deliberately wear armor to conceal her female identity. She was dressed in a woman's riding outfit, neat and clean.

The most eye-catching thing is her bun.

Most unmarried women in the Zhou Dynasty wore their hair down, and only married women would comb their hair up.

The enemy troops on the city wall were quickly eliminated by Chu Xi.

"Archers, get ready." Chu Xi frowned as he watched the enemy soldiers moving ladders and quickly approaching the city gate with an attitude of perseverance.

At the command, hundreds of archers immediately reached the top of the wall and aimed at the Western Chu soldiers below.

She raised her hand quickly, "Shoot the arrow."

"The leader of the Western Chu army looks familiar."

Jiang Zhenyao had some time to catch her breath. She stood behind the soldiers and looked at the Western Chu enemy troops under the city.

"How can he not look familiar?" Chu Xi half raised an eyebrow and half teased, "This person has been to your matchmaking arena."

Although he didn't fight in the ring, his master did.

The princes of Western Chu might not be targeting Jiang Zhenyao, but they definitely have bad intentions.

Jiang Zhenyao has a special identity, and behind her is the Duke of Weiguo.

Duke Weiguo has been stationed in Xi'an for many years to intimidate Western Chu. If the prince of Western Chu wins the marriage proposal against Jiang Zhenyao in the arena, they can make a lot of use of this incident!

"Do you know him?" Jiang Zhenyao was different from most women of that era. She was frank and not shy at all when talking about her marriage.

"I know. He is a descendant of the Qi family, a famous general family in Western Chu. His name is Qi Minsong."

Chu Xi also knew that in the original novel, Qi Minsong would become famous after this battle.

His record of taking four cities in a row made him quickly famous and he returned to the Western Chu court.

But his future fate will be miserable.

"That night you helped me in the capital, and he also fought with me!"

Jiang Zhenyao joined the battle very late at night, so she did not see the two of them fight.

I couldn't help but wonder, "He wants to assassinate you?"

"Could it be that he had already predicted that you would go to the battlefield sooner or later and become his enemy, so he wanted to eliminate you early?"

"No." Chu Xi thought carefully about the situation.

Qi Minsong is a proud person.

His pride made him disdain to do such a thing.

Even if you want to win, you must win openly and honestly.

"Besides, even I am not sure that His Majesty will arrange for me to go to Xi'an, so how can he know?"

"That's right." Jiang Zhenyao thought it made sense and nodded.

Chu Xi ended the topic and decisively took out the golden medicine from his waist and gave it to Jiang Zhenyao.

"Treat the wound first."

Jiang Zhenyao was stunned for a moment, then took the medicine and applied it without hesitation.

At the same time, thank you for coming late.

"Thank you very much."

"Ah."

"I thought I was almost going to die here. You showed up just in time." Jiang Zhenyao looked at her wound, sprinkled medicine on it, and bandaged it quickly.

She said self-deprecatingly, "It's because I'm not good enough in my studies."

He wanted to save others, but ended up being surrounded and unable to escape.

Looking around, there were already countless corpses piled on the city walls.

In addition to these corpses, there were also some seriously injured soldiers.

There were no more medicines in the city, and the North Gate suffered heavy losses. The wounded soldiers were almost all holding on, because before they could no longer endure, they had already died at the hands of the enemy.

Once seriously injured, it is almost equivalent to death.

Chu Xi saw the heaviness in Jiang Zhenyao's eyes, patted her shoulder and said, "You are already fine."
