He looked up at the window: "It seems it's true."
"What do you mean, really?" Qi Guze asked.
The Ghost Doctor withdrew his gaze and looked at Qi Guze: "The Kingdom of Dongsang is doomed."
Qi Guze sneered: "It would be best if they were destroyed. I want to see how they destroy their country."
“It wasn’t the fall of the country, it was annexation,” the Ghost Doctor corrected him. “It was annexed by Bei Ye.”
"Annexation?" Xu Yuehuai retorted, "What does that have to do with me?"
“It’s very important,” the Ghost Doctor said. “There’s no more fighting in Dongsang now, and next up is Beiye’s army.”
"Why are they attacking?" Qi Guze asked.
“Naturally, we should occupy Wuling first,” the Ghost Doctor said. “Then, we can use Wuling as a springboard to attack the Great Zhou.”
Xu Yuehuai also realized the seriousness of the situation, "You mean Bei Ye's target is the Great Zhou?"
The Ghost Doctor nodded: "Now Bei Ye is using everything from Dong Sang Kingdom to threaten us, making us bring an army to fight against your Great Zhou, exhaust your vanguard army, and then he will lead the army of Ming Yue Kingdom to annex Great Zhou."
Qi Guze and Xu Yuehuai were both somewhat surprised, not expecting that Bei Ye would have such a big appetite!
While they were dealing with the chaos in the Great Zhou Kingdom, they secretly attacked Dong Sang, and now they are using Dong Sang to deal with their Great Zhou Kingdom!
A fierce battle is inevitable, and the people of these countries will suffer the most.
Qi Guze said, "Actually, there is another good way."
Upon hearing this, Ghost Doctor and Xu Yuehuai immediately turned to look at him.
"What do you want?" the Ghost Doctor asked.
Qi Guze knew that the Ghost Doctor was just going along with the flow, and that he must have come here tonight for that very reason.
"Actually, our two countries can cooperate to put on a false show for Bei Ye."
"Then our two countries each sent their own soldiers to merge into one army, and then when the soldiers of the Mingyue Kingdom passed through the wasteland between Dongsang and Wuling, we besieged them there."
The Ghost Doctor said, "Your idea is really good. I'll go back and tell His Highness Bai Yu!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuehuai felt uneasy: "Is this really a good idea? If Bei Ye discovers our scheme, we'll be in danger."
Qi Guze smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Bei Ye won't see through it. Because he's too arrogant, so arrogant that he never doubts our plans."
Seeing Qi Guze's confident demeanor, Xu Yuehuai's worries lessened slightly.
The Ghost Doctor nodded: "Then it's settled. I will discuss it with His Highness Bai Yu as soon as possible, and then organize an army to go to the agreed location."
Qi Guze said, "Alright, our Great Zhou Kingdom will also make preparations as soon as possible. Remember, it must be kept secret, and no one can know about our plan."
The Ghost Doctor nodded: "Understood, I will be careful." After saying that, he leaped out of the window and disappeared into the night.
Qi Guze gazed out the window, his eyes deep and resolute. He knew the road ahead would be extremely difficult, but he was confident he could lead the Great Zhou Kingdom to victory.
Xu Yuehuai looked at him, her heart filled with respect and trust. She knew that as long as Qi Guze was there, the Great Zhou Kingdom had hope.
In the days that followed, Qi Guze and the soldiers of the Great Zhou Kingdom began to make preparations in earnest.
They fortified the city walls, adjusted the deployment of their troops, and formulated a series of detailed battle plans.
At the same time, Bai Yu and the Ghost Doctor maintained close contact with the Great Zhou Kingdom, exchanging updates on progress and situations.
Despite the complex history of grievances and conflicts between the two countries, they gradually put aside their prejudices and contradictions as they jointly resisted the threat of foreign enemies.
Finally, on a dark and windy night, the allied forces of the Great Zhou Kingdom and the Eastern Sang Kingdom quietly assembled on the wasteland. They lay in ambush in the grass, waiting for the arrival of the Northern Ye's Mingyue Kingdom army.
Qi Guze rode a tall horse, his eyes shining brightly.
He stared intently into the darkness in the distance, silently yearning for victory and for the soldiers' hopes.
Xu Yuehuai followed beside him, her hand gripping her longsword tightly, her eyes resolute and determined. She knew she was about to face a life-or-death battle, but she was fearless.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves shattered the silence of the wasteland. The army of the Northern Moon Kingdom charged forward like a torrent. They were unaware of the danger ahead, overconfident in their own strength and strategies.
However, everything changed when they entered the encirclement of the allied forces of the Great Zhou Kingdom and the Eastern Sang Kingdom.
The allied forces charged towards the army of the Dark Moon Kingdom like tigers descending a mountain, engaging in a fierce melee. Swords clashed, shouts and screams rose and fell.
Qi Guze brandished his longsword, leading the soldiers of the Great Zhou Kingdom in a charge. His swordsmanship was sharp and precise; each swing of his sword claimed the life of an enemy.
Xu Yuehuai followed closely behind, her figure darting across the battlefield, her swordsmanship agile yet ruthless.
Bai Yu and the Ghost Doctor also demonstrated outstanding combat skills and leadership abilities. They led the soldiers of Dongsang Kingdom to fight alongside Da Zhou Kingdom, jointly resisting the attack of Mingyue Kingdom.
Under the fierce attack of the allied forces, the army of the Dark Moon Kingdom gradually lost its advantage. They were divided into small groups and surrounded on all sides. Bei Ye's plan was completely thwarted.
However, Bei Ye came to the front from the rear of the army.
He held a long sword in his hand: "I never expected that your two countries would join forces to resist me!"
"Today, none of you will leave here alive!"
He then ordered his bodyguards to bring out their secret weapon—a bunch of explosives!
Xu Yuehuai sensed something was amiss when she saw the contents of the wooden barrels; she seemed to smell gunpowder.
"Oh no, everyone retreat—!"
She was utterly shocked. She never expected that a time traveler would defect to Bei Ye and give him the formula for explosives!
Explosives are highly lethal weapons on the battlefield!
If Bei Ye and his group used all their explosives, they would probably blow up half of this wasteland.
Amidst the panic, Xu Yuehuai turned to Qi Guze and said, "Run!"
Qi Guze also realized the danger. He suddenly pulled Xu Yuehuai up and ran wildly backward.
Bai Yu and the Ghost Doctor also realized what was happening, and they led their soldiers to stay as far away from the explosives as possible.
Bei Ye watched the allied soldiers fleeing in all directions and burst into maniacal laughter: "Hahaha! You think you can defeat me? Today is your doomsday!"
He brandished his longsword and shouted, "Light the explosives!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the barrels filled with explosives were instantly ignited. A huge explosion rang out, and the entire wasteland was enveloped in flames and smoke.
