To be honest, just imagining that scene made Qin Zhaoyue's heart pound.
If it were her, she definitely wouldn't do something like putting herself in a life-or-death situation to survive.
This trip to the Suzaku South Road may seem like a lone expedition, but in reality, they are quite well-prepared.
With the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man gathered together, the three of them working together were enough to put up a fight against a master approaching the first-grade realm, so they naturally dared to go all out.
However, the eldest sister only has a third-grade guard named "Liu Yan" by her side, who excels in speed but is relatively mediocre in other aspects.
Given these conditions, two thousand against fifty thousand... it's almost unimaginable how brutal and desperate the situation must have been.
Qin Minghuang saw through the perfunctory tone in Xiao Liu's answer, but she wasn't about to let the matter rest so easily, and pressed on:
"Just the word 'powerful'?"
Qin Zhaoyue secretly rolled her eyes slightly, but still didn't get up.
"Isn't that amazing enough?"
Why don't you, sir, try leading the troops yourself and see if you can achieve the same results?
Despite hearing Xiao Liu's blunt complaints, Qin Minghuang remained unperturbed.
She already knew the details of the Battle of Zhenbeiguan by heart.
At that time, the barbican gate was breached in an instant, and strange phenomena occurred frequently. Even the main city gate developed huge cracks, which must have been the work of the sorcerer named Yan Wujiu.
If Zhao Qiong hadn't acted decisively, using herself and the Phoenix Feather Camp as bait to create an excellent opportunity for the Shence Xuanjia Army to counterattack, Zhenbei Pass would have been in grave danger.
Just as Xiao Liu thought, even if she were to personally direct, she might not be able to do a better job than her eldest daughter.
With his keen eye for opportunity, decisive courage, and bravery in leading from the front, Qin Zhaoqiong can be considered the best among all the imperial heirs.
However……
"Don't try to fool me," Qin Minghuang said calmly, looking at her. "Sixth Sister, you know that's not what I'm asking."
Qin Zhaoyue subconsciously snuggled closer to Chu Xinglan, hugging him even tighter, and mumbled:
"What is Mother Queen saying? I don't understand."
Qin Minghuang, however, did not give her a chance to play dumb, her tone carrying an unquestionable authority:
"I command you, you must speak!"
Just now he was referring to himself as "I," but now he's putting on airs like "I, the Emperor."
She may look younger on the outside, but inside she's still that same old mother, tsk...
The light filtering through the gaps in the carriage curtains cast subtle shadows on Qin Minghuang's suddenly clenched fists.
Since she had already adopted an imperial demeanor, what could Qin Zhaoyue do? She could only tell the truth.
She lazily adjusted her leaning posture, her voice carrying a hint of nonchalance.
"Eldest sister may be a qualified general, but she may not be suitable to be the commander-in-chief of the three armies..."
