Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

Wen Ruosheng's expression remained unchanged as he said lightly, "If we win, then Yancheng will belong to Yun Country, and we can avoid a war between the two sides, which would not only waste time but also cause a large number of casualties."

Jiang Li looked at him with surprise in his eyes: "I didn't expect that you would also consider the issue of casualties of soldiers. However, this condition is indeed good. Fighting back and forth is a waste of time. It is better to fight with a few people."

"Take a gamble to avoid too many casualties among the soldiers."

"That's exactly what I was thinking. In every war in the past, both countries had a huge consumption, wasted time and food, and lost too many lives. Now that you are here, then using you to decide the outcome is also a solution."

Jiang Li glanced at Mo Yuan, and the two exchanged glances and nodded in tacit understanding. They obviously thought this method was good and better than going into battle directly. Perhaps it could delay some time and allow the people in the dark to come out.

"Okay, I promise. If you win, I'll give Yancheng to you. If we win, you have to postpone the attack for three months. Can you do that?"

Wen Ruosheng paused with his folding fan in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly: "I thought the princess would ask Yun Country to withdraw its troops, but I didn't expect it to be postponed for only three months. Why is that? Is it to plant crops in the early spring?"

"...Yes, it is for the purpose of growing crops. If the war really breaks out, it will be endless. What will the people eat and drink? They will starve. We can fight, but we cannot let it interfere with farming."

"If you agree, let's sign the contract."

Jiang Li looked at him calmly, without any flaws. Even if the people behind him had patience, they would not be able to hold back for three months, so three months would be enough. If they really proposed to withdraw the troops, the bet would definitely fall through, so it would be better to postpone it for three months.

She can also free up her hands to deal with other things, and catch the dead Zongzi and get the person behind it out. She doesn't have to worry even if there is a war. Otherwise, if the war continues like this, even if she can win, the loss is not what she wants to see.

Wen Ruoshen stared at her intently, unable to see anything wrong. He suppressed the confusion in his heart and nodded in agreement. Yun Kingdom could not suffer any more losses, otherwise, even if they could defeat Qi Kingdom, what would they use to fight Yu Kingdom later?

His Majesty's intention was to reduce the losses. With so many of them, they cannot lose against two people and a bird. What they want is to take Yancheng for free without losing a single soldier.

Both parties signed the contract and each kept a copy.

Jiang Li flexed his wrists, his eyes sparkling frighteningly, and clapped his hands: "Let the eagles fly up, let them experience the feeling of taking off, it's fun."

When Diao Diao heard this, he flapped his wings hard at the Venerable who was running towards him. The wind that suddenly rose was very strong and icy, and it blew the man away. Some of them came closer, raised the long sword in their hands, and stabbed at Diao Diao.

He was grabbed by sharp claws, thrown away and smashed to the ground.

Wen Ruosheng frowned upon seeing this and casually swung out a few wind blades, but before they hit the eagle, it was as if they were blocked by something. He turned his head to look at the person who was smiling at the side.

"Princess, what is this thing? Why did the attack fail?"

Jiang Li touched his nose, looking innocent: "You asked me, how could I possibly tell you that we are enemies, okay? Wen Ruosheng, you are so smart, just guess it yourself."

Hey, in her domain, she is the king who controls everything, so why should she take action? Pretending to be cool quietly is the most deadly. It makes it hard for people to see through her and naturally unable to find her weaknesses. How can she not panic?

Yunshan raised his hand, mobilized his body strength, and prepared to use the earth thorn, but he couldn't move it. The piece of earth was confused, and he heard the woman utter a few words lightly: "Ten times the gravity."

My body felt like a mountain was suddenly pressing down on me. With a bang, I fell heavily down and fell flat on my face. When I wanted to get up, I found that my head was so heavy that I couldn't even lift it up. My whole body was being held down.

Seeing this, the others stepped back subconsciously: "My Lord, what kind of power is that? Why would we be controlled when we get close to it? We can't even move. This is too scary. Isn't the eldest princess a thunderbolt? What the hell is this?"

Wen Ruosheng glanced at Jiang Li and Mo Yuan, and finally landed on Mo Yuan, with suspicion: "Everyone has one ability. The eldest princess is undoubtedly lightning, but this strange power, could it be that General Mo has it?"

Mo Yuan curled the corners of his mouth, his expression normal, he didn't say yes, nor did he say no, he just looked at him, his eyes calm.

"Good, very good, you two really have hidden a lot of things. It looks like a barrier that prevents them from getting close to you. Am I right?"

"...!!"

Guess, guess hard. It doesn’t cost money to show off.

Seeing this, Diao Diao rushed over and knocked everyone to the ground. He raised his foot to step on them, and a familiar voice came from behind: "Stop, Diao Diao, I told you before that you can only hurt people but not kill them. You have a bird-like brain and don't remember anything."

Jiang Li took a step forward and swung the electric whip in his hand: "Wen Ruosheng, you will definitely lose, so you still have to continue fighting. If you don't fight, don't forget to fight again in three months."

"…But, we'll fight again in three months. Let's go."

The two men and the eagle looked at their backs. Jiang Li frowned and said, "A Yuan, do you feel that Wen Ruosheng is a little bit abnormal? He seems to want to postpone the battle. Why is that?"

Mo Yuan's eyes flickered, and he said softly, "I don't know. There are only a few reasons. They are short of food and want to avoid too many casualties. Or they are just waiting and waiting for the Yu Kingdom and Qi Kingdom to fight, so that they can reap the benefits."

"If that's the case, why would they send troops? They can just wait until we fight Yu Country. It won't be too late then. Isn't this a contradiction?"

"It's different. If they wait, the initiative may be taken away by Yu Country. The battlefield is changing rapidly. We have to come here first. If we find a flaw in Yancheng, it would be best to take it down directly, but we can't have too many casualties."

Jiang Li thought for a while and felt a little headache. Forget it, she didn't want to think about this brain-consuming thing anymore. A Yuan said yes, then it was fine. There was a three-month contract, so it was okay to stop for the time being. She wanted to do other things.

"Three months is enough for us."

Mo Yuan nodded: "Yes, we can go back to the city. My wife must get away as soon as possible and go to the southern border to stop the Yu Kingdom from attacking the border. As for the news about the black robe, your husband will keep an eye on it."

"Okay, let's divide the work and work together to get things done as soon as possible."

The two men returned with their soldiers. Gu Yi was dumbfounded when he saw this. He didn't expect that the first battle would end in such a disillusioning way. It was really unexpected, but he could understand it after thinking about it.

The goal of Yun State is to unify the world, so it naturally cannot fight with Qi State to the death. I'm afraid they are still thinking that when Yu State loses the upper hand, they can take the opportunity to kill Yu State and eliminate some threats in the future.

In short, they are wary of each other now. They want to fight but dare not. I am afraid they are all waiting and watching. Whoever starts the fight first will be passive...
