The protagonist travels back to the time when Ying Zheng just ascended the throne. This scoundrel discovers that his strength increases dramatically every year.
Thus, the Great Qin gains a ki...
Just as Erniu was patiently waiting for news, the sound of thunderous hooves came from behind him. Judging from the frequency and sound, there didn't seem to be many people coming.
"Be on alert! Form ranks!" Erniu decisively gave the order.
Before Erniu could speak, his deputy immediately drew his sword and roared the order.
The hundred-plus Black Dragon Armored Army soldiers showed no panic or fear, and instead formed an orderly battle formation, their eyes flashing with astonishing killing intent as they stared intently at the end of the distant road.
The Yan army on the city wall was also dumbfounded. They had not received any news and did not know whether the visitors were their own people or enemy reinforcements.
Meanwhile, the assassin who was guarding the city walls had already entered the palace to meet the king. Without their leader, they could only be more cautious and vigilant, and repeatedly dispatched troops to the city walls to guard them.
Erniu's disdainful gaze fell on the distance, and he sneered, "So, the Yan Kingdom... wants to send troops to kill me?"
He mistakenly believed that the Yan general was using delaying tactics, but in reality, it was a well-prepared cavalry attack.
However, as the people approached, Erniu realized that they were not enemy troops, and the familiar figure leading them was none other than Chun Ning.
"Chuning, what brings you here?" Erniu asked suspiciously, then his heart skipped a beat. "Could it be that the Grand Commandant sent Chuning to arrest me?"
He acted without orders, which was a major taboo in the army. Given his wicked ways, he would surely be severely punished. How could he not be afraid?
Chun Ning arrived quickly and stopped her horse in front of Er Niu in the blink of an eye. "Er Niu, you're getting bolder and bolder. Are you prepared to face the Grand Commandant's wrath?"
Erniu was speechless for a moment, then showed a hint of fear and laughed awkwardly, "Brother, you can't possibly kill me, can you? Even if you want to take me back, you'll have to wait until I see Prince Dan's head."
Chun Ning chuckled and shook his head. As a brother who had grown up playing in the mud, how could he not know Er Niu's nature? He said helplessly, "Physical suffering is inevitable. I didn't come here to take you back. It's because my elder brother is worried about your safety and asked me to come and protect you."
A hint of emotion flashed in Erniu's eyes. "This...sigh, I didn't think it through. I'll accept the punishment later."
Since his debut, he has gone through bloodshed and turmoil with his wicked husband, and his personality has been unknowingly influenced by him, becoming domineering and tyrannical.
At the time, he didn't think about all that. He only wanted to witness the death of Crown Prince Dan to vent his hatred. He also felt that given the current situation, King Xi of Yan was already deeply afraid of the Qin army, so how could he dare to disrespect him again?
"Even if you're not afraid to die, don't drag your brothers down with you."
Chun Ning's voice was cold and stern as she reprimanded him with a sense of disappointment: "How many times has your elder brother said that if you don't use your brain, our future achievements will be limited to this? Yet you still do things your own way, and you don't even know the consequences, putting yourself and the brothers in trouble."
Erniu was speechless after being scolded. He lowered his head in shame and secretly glanced at his comrades who had come with him. He was immediately filled with fear.
The Black Dragon Armored Army is the elite of the elite, and the culmination of the villain's efforts. From the rigorous selection process to the brutal training, and countless life-or-death trials, they have achieved their current status. How could they possibly risk their lives in vain?
Chun Ning is right. Each of these comrades is a treasure, hard to come by, and losing any one of them would be a huge loss, let alone more than a hundred at once.
"Brothers...I..." Erniu opened his mouth, wanting to apologize but felt it was too pale, so he didn't know how to express his apology.
"How can we say we have no clothes? We share the same robes with you!" The hundred men who came with him shouted in unison, their faces full of laughter, without the slightest complaint about his brainless behavior.
"How can we say we have no clothes? We share the same robes!" Erniu took a deep breath and roared out these words that the evil man had said since the very beginning of the Black Dragon Armor Army.
Chun Ning and the others laughed and roared, startling the Yan army on the city wall, who were also envious of their camaraderie in the face of death.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves rang out from inside the city. The garrison commander jumped off his warhorse and quickly climbed the city wall. "General Erniu, my king has ordered that you be invited to the palace for an audience."
But when he saw the Black Dragon Armored Army suddenly increase in number, his heart skipped a beat. "This... are they here on a mission? How come the entire Black Dragon Armored Army has appeared in the blink of an eye?"
The Black Dragon Armored Army is renowned, and its power is equivalent to facing 100,000 elite troops, or even more!
Their achievements are nothing short of miraculous; some victories were even beyond the reach of 100,000 elite troops.
"Open the gate, that's true. Do you think I can't fly in if you don't open it?" Erniu said angrily when he saw that the city gate was not open for a long time.
The city gate guard frowned and asked in a low voice, "What just happened? Why are there so many more people in the blink of an eye?" His eyes kept lingering on the Black Dragon Armor Army.
Erniu approached step by step, his gaze sharp and his voice cold: "The Prince of Yan said he wanted to meet, but you won't open the city gates. Are you playing with me?"
A clever-looking soldier standing next to the general immediately stepped forward and briefly described what had just happened.
The commander suddenly realized what was happening, and a bitter smile appeared on his face. The Black Dragon Armored Army was afraid, but he was even more afraid!
Helpless, he took a deep breath and tried his best to remain calm: "General Erniu, the Prince of Yan has ordered you to come to the palace for an audience. So many Black Dragon Armored Army soldiers want to enter the city... I hope you understand."
He had tried his best to imply to Erniu in a conciliatory tone that it wasn't that he wouldn't let you into the city, but that he was afraid you would cause trouble in the city!
Erniu sneered, "Stop talking nonsense. We destroyed both your Lingshou City and Rao City. If you really wanted to cause trouble, why would you send us?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chun Ning actually pulled out the heads of Lord Changguo and the Prime Minister of Yan. The two heads had undergone special preservation treatment and were covered with a layer of white frost, making their originally livid and ferocious faces even more terrifying.
The garrison commander's heart tightened, his face turned deathly pale, and he almost collapsed to the ground.
"If you don't believe me, take a good look at who these two heads belong to!" Chun Ning smiled coldly, which made the city gate guard feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
"Gentlemen...could you wait for me to enter the palace one more time..." This time, the city gate guard lost his composure, and his voice trembled.
Go!
Erniu was about to lash out when Chun Ning interrupted him in time.
The garrison commander wiped the cold sweat from his brow, turned and gestured for the quick-witted soldier to help him up, then staggered down the city wall.
Time passed slowly, and just as Erniu and the others were losing all patience, a commotion broke out among the Yan soldiers on the city wall.
"We pay our respects to Your Majesty!"
Oh ho?
Erniu and Chunning exchanged a smile; it turned out that it was Prince Xi of Yan who had come in person.
At this moment, King Xi of Yan also looked unwell, his pale complexion mixed with a trace of lingering shock. He peeked out from the city wall and forced himself to remain calm, saying, "The two armies are currently engaged in battle. I wonder what business the two generals have with me?"
