The Slender Waist

The day the city fell, Feng Yun was treated by her father as a spoil of war and presented to the enemy general. Everyone pitied her, soon to be a captive, plunging into a fiery pit. Yet she veiled the little donkey cart that took her out of the city tightly, daring not to let anyone see the secret delight in her heart… As a child, she behaved oddly and spoke startling words, once predicting a war in which the whole army was wiped out, nearly being burned to death by her clan as a demon. When she grew up, her beauty was out of the world, but she was rejected by her husband's family. In the period of chaos and disorder everywhewe, where could a female captive go? "I do not seek a devoted partner to grow old with; I merely wish to rule unrivaled in this life." In her previous life, Feng Yun was always the one being scorned by others; in this life, she decided to strike first, turning the tables on each and every one of them, those so-called unreachable flowers and beasts in gentleman's clothing, those degenerates… all to be scorned in return.

Chapter 168: General to the Rescue_2

Deng Guang was launching a full assault.

It seemed they had discovered a weak point in the south wall, sending even more soldiers there, climbing atop each other to scale it.

Feng Yun's gaze swept to the corner of her eye before she summoned a few guards.

"Release arrows!"

Why wait until now to release arrows? Because weapons were limited, and so were arrows.

She needed to use them when the enemy was frantic and enraged to affect their judgment.

Feng Yun then took out a small horn, projecting the presence of an enormous army with just a handful of men.

"First team of archers, advance."

"Second team of archers, prepare!"

"Third team!"

"Shoot those dog thieves full of holes!"

The rebels confronting the enemy watched the arrows, as if they had eyes, fly towards them, accompanied by torches doused in tung oil descending from above, which scared them into retreating.

They didn't understand how many soldiers the villa actually housed.
