When the Northern Army returned, everyone hung their heads.

Bei Yanming was furious. He was the Northern Dark Emperor, but he hadn't conquered the border city of Wu Kingdom in a day and a night. Moreover, the other side's commander was just a nobody! It was so shameful!

Qu Liu walked forward carefully and served tea and water, fearing that he would anger him. Even so, Bei Yanming still threw the teacup at his forehead.

"As a commander who is servile and submissive, no wonder you can't win the battle!" Bei Yanming couldn't help but get angry at Qu Liu.

Qu Liu covered the big bump on his forehead and retreated, but he was not convinced. Even the mighty Hades Emperor couldn't beat him, so isn't it normal for him, a new general, to be unable to beat him?

At this time, Yao Shang was much smarter. He didn't say much and just waited for Bei Yanming to calm down.

On the contrary, the border town of Wu State was completely quiet, and the soldiers were recuperating after the great battle.

As night fell, the border town was bustling with people singing and drinking, probably celebrating their success.

It is indeed worth celebrating. Although Yuanfeng has served as the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard for some time, this is the first time he has led troops to fight.

"You were able to fight the Hades to a draw in your first battle. The young are truly to be feared! Hahaha!" General Jiang patted his shoulder, looking pleased.

Yao Meng, who was sitting in the armchair at the side, glanced at him disdainfully and said, "Young men are to be feared? Girls are to be feared too! Who told you to replace my disciple? Otherwise, she would have fought even better today!"

The bonfire reflected Yuanfeng's face. Maybe it was because he was roasted or something, but his face turned a little red.

Yun Rou, who was not far away, seemed to glance at him, then went over to pinch Yao Meng's shoulders and said, "Yesterday I saw the moves of the Dark Emperor clearly on the city wall. If we fight again, we should have a 50% chance of capturing him."

"Fifty percent?" Yao Meng curled his lips. "I think you've been playing around lately and haven't studied hard. Others haven't learned my special moves, but they can still fight to a draw. It took you so long to learn and you can only get a 50% chance?"

Yuan Feng suddenly felt ashamed. To be honest, it was really hard for him to fight to a draw, all thanks to the military tactics he learned at Baichuan Academy. But he had seen Yao Meng's moves that day, and even if Yun Rou only learned 10% or 20%, she would still be able to crush him.

He glanced at Yun Rou secretly. He used to think she was a man, so he thought she was effeminate. But now that he found out she was a woman, he realized that Yun Rou was more masculine than many men.

When she found him secretly looking at her, the originally calm Yun Rou suddenly became uneasy. She didn't know whether she was provoked by Yao Meng's words or annoyed by his gaze, so she turned around and left.

"This kid!" Yao Shang smacked his lips, then stood up and left.

Under the light of the bonfire, Yuanfeng looked at the soldiers singing songs and drinking, and did not speak for a long time.

In the main tent, Xiao Baozi and Xiao Tangyuan were already fast asleep, while Chu Younan was deep in thought under the lamp. His black hair was loose like black satin, and his satin robe of the same color made him look as cold as frost.

Su Bei helped him pick out the wick, but he hugged her in his arms, "Your hands are cold, why don't you wear more clothes!"

As he said this, he stuffed her hands into his robe.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Su Bei knew that he had been holding back for several months. Coupled with this action and posture, he was afraid that some person who looked fair on the outside but yellow on the inside couldn't help himself.

"Be careful not to be seen by others!" Su Bei rolled his eyes at him and tried to pull his hand out but was held even tighter.

"Who dares to trespass into the emperor's tent?" he said, and then kissed her.

Love is as strong as wine, intoxicating the heart.

Chu Younan had just pulled out her hairpin and was about to take a step further when someone actually broke into the emperor's tent.

"Your Majesty! The people from the north have really launched a sneak attack!" The person who came in was Yun Rou. She felt suffocated after she walked away, so she walked around and found the people from the north who launched a sneak attack.

She thought that since she knew Qinggong, she should be able to inform Chu Younan faster, but she didn't expect to see such a scene as soon as she came in.

Chu Younan turned around subconsciously and protected Su Bei tightly, "You go and deal with it!"

"Yes!" Yun Rou agreed, not daring to look directly at him. She was so shocked that our emperor actually liked men! Yun Rou felt sorry for Su Bei no matter how she thought about it. It seemed that the emperor didn't take concubines because he had a special liking for them. It was just because our emperor liked men!

The queen was just a tool for the emperor to continue his family line! If that was the case, then the queen's death was strange! It was terrifying to think about it!

Because her mind was full of this matter, Yun Rou was unable to react for a moment and just stared blankly at the Northern attack without giving any orders.

The Northern Army's sneak attack tonight was an accident. Chu Younan had originally planned to have a three-day banquet to push Bei Yanming's anger to the extreme. By then, Bei Yanming would have been unable to tolerate it anymore and would definitely launch a sneak attack.

However, he didn't expect that Bei Yanming had predicted his prediction, so he launched a sneak attack immediately without leaving them any breathing space.

However, Bei Yanming did not predict that the border town was quiet during the day, not because the entire army was resting, and that the singing and drinking at night was not all soldiers.

Yun Rou had already set up formations around them, so even though she was in shock and had no orders, the people from the North were like headless flies and couldn't get in no matter how hard they tried.

Of course, she was not as proficient in formations as Yao Meng, so she only used a formation that would make people disoriented. The soldiers from the north could clearly see a door in front of them, but as they walked, the door ran as they went, and they could not get in.

The Ukrainian soldiers easily captured another 50,000 soldiers from the north.

Both sides suffered losses in yesterday's battle, with each side losing about 50,000 soldiers. Now Bei Yanming only has 700,000 troops left.

I have to say, although there was no direct combat, Yun Rou's defense was still very beautiful, which made Yuan Feng convinced.

When she was cleaning up the mess at dawn, she suddenly heard a voice that seemed to say, "I admire you!"

Yun Rou turned around and seemed to see a back view of Yuan Feng, but he seemed to be in a hurry and did not look like he had just spoken.

"I must be possessed by a demon..." Yun Rou knocked her head.

Little did he know that Yuan Feng, who hurried away, had already blushed. As for calling her sister, he already had a sister at home, so it was nothing. But for some reason, when he called Yun Rou, he just felt something was wrong.

"Commander Yuan?" General Jiang came forward and saw that his face was red. "Are you feeling unwell? Are you tired these two days? Go back and have a rest!"

When General Jiang said this, Yun Rou happened to walk over. Hearing this, Yun Rou glanced at Yuan Feng, and there were only two words in her eyes - weakling.

Yuanfeng almost collapsed. He is not a weakling! Not a weakling! He can be shirtless in the coldest days of winter. He is a real man!

He had to prove this to Yun Rou! He couldn't let her look down on him!
