"Since he is a sentimental person, I have no objection to helping him achieve his goal."

The Empress is also a decisive person. Most importantly, the outcome of the Wuya Dynasty being able to gain or lose the support of Marquis Yu is worlds apart.

Therefore, the Queen will not give up any assistance she can secure.

Furthermore, Ji Weiran's presence also signifies the Empress's approval of this collaboration.

"Haha, in that case, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

Lord Yu smiled slightly and stepped forward to extend his hand to the Empress.

"It's a pleasure to work with you."

If the Wuya Dynasty wins this time, Marquis Yu will become the new ruler of Western Zhou. In that case, the Empress shaking hands with him would not be considered lowering her status.

"Your Majesty, now that we have decided to cooperate, there is one more thing we hope to obtain your cooperation on."

Lord Yu withdrew his hand and smiled, saying, "The commotion you've caused this time is too great. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to hide my situation any longer. So I hope you can have the people open the city gates to cooperate with our act. Rest assured, I guarantee that I will not commit any offenses."

"Can."

Having chosen to cooperate, the Queen trusted those she employed and, after a moment's thought, nodded in agreement.

She wasn't afraid that Lord Yu would deceive her. She knew that Lord Yu's actions were essentially leading his troops deep into enemy territory. If he really had any other intentions, he would definitely not be able to escape from her.

The higher a person's status, the more afraid they are of death.

Because they already have the right to live longer and better than ordinary people, there is no need for them to pay with their lives for it.

Therefore, the fact that Lord Yu has come in person shows that we can expect sincerity from him.

Time was of the essence, and the two sides immediately signed an alliance agreement. The Empress then personally went to Yuancheng to make arrangements.

Before long, Yuancheng opened its city gates to allow Lord Yu's army to pass through.

Neither side committed any offenses against the other; the scene was so harmonious that it resembled a military parade.

Before long, Lord Yu's army had all stationed themselves on the same battle line as the other routes.

This is to better conceal our intentions and seize the best opportunity to launch a powerful counterattack.

As for whether Lord Yu will betray us at the crucial moment, the Empress has already sent someone back to the country to verify this with Ji Weiran.

What happened after that was only natural.

The situation at the border changed significantly with the arrival of the Empress.

The attacks by Bu Jiang and Xi Zhou immediately slowed down.

No, it should be said that progress has basically stagnated.

Because no matter how many generals the enemy sends, they will all be killed by the Empress immediately.

Furthermore, given the Empress's current speed, she can quickly travel between five battlefields within a single day.

With her in charge, the border city was practically impregnable, and the two sides entered a stalemate.

To be precise, it seems that the Wuya Dynasty is now even more superior.

However, this situation did not last long.

"You have your clever plans, I have my countermeasures." The people of Bu Jiang and the Western Zhou were not fools. After several generals were killed in battle, they quickly came up with a solution.

"Your Majesty, we are unable to ascertain the specific identity and location of the enemy's commander."

Previously, secret guards were always the first to spy on military intelligence, but this time the secret guards returned empty-handed.

He said remorsefully, "They not only concealed the identity of their commander, but also dispatched multiple decoys. Furthermore, we cannot be certain whether the real commander is among those decoys."
