This person turned out to be the general of the Goryeo Kingdom and the second-in-command in the Goryeo Kingdom’s army.

Ever since Goryeo General Jin Hui was accidentally captured, the Goryeo Kingdom has repeatedly requested to rescue him, but Yin Ruoshui has been reluctant to act.

The plan ultimately used a traitor in the Yancheng Army to capture Xia Qin and then exchange her, but it also failed.

The operation failed, and they didn't want the Great Xia Kingdom to know Jin Hui's true identity. So there was only one option, which was to break into Huangshi Town to rescue him.

The Goryeo Kingdom was getting impatient, and the Xiongnu Kingdom was becoming more and more impatient. The Xiongnu Kingdom was not good at attacking and defending cities. It had always relied on swift attacks and retreats, and was obsessed with plundering materials.

Ever since Yuelan Kingdom joined the coalition, the Xiongnu army has been very uncomfortable with the slow-paced urban attack and defense method, but they can still accept it as long as they have won battles along the way.

But after Mu Lie's reinforcements arrived, the situation became stalemate. The Xiongnu Kingdom also repeatedly requested to take the initiative and use its advantage in mobility to attack the Daxia army, but Yin Ruoshui did not agree.

Moreover, Yin Ruoshui’s days as head coach may not last long.

Yunquan, the Right Wise King of the Xiongnu Kingdom, is about to arrive, and by then the command of the coalition forces will probably change hands.

Yin Ruoshui never trusted anyone, including his relatives, let alone a foreign general. Now he is also thinking about his next plan.

Of course, compared to this boring battlefield, what interests him most now is the woman, Xia Qin, with whom he has fought twice.

The first time they fought, Xia Qin's skills and eyes left a deep impression on him.

The second time, he felt Xia Qin's calmness and composure. He knew the court of the Great Xia Kingdom very well, so why did such a person suddenly appear? He heard that he was a fool before. Xia Qin aroused his great interest.

"Your Highness," a masked woman walked into the tent while he was deep in thought, "I have some urgent matters to attend to."

"explain."

"His Majesty wishes you to return to Yuelan Country to attend the New Year celebrations."

Yin Ruoshui snorted softly.

"Next thing."

"There's news from the Great Xia Kingdom again. This time, the fish they're offering us is even bigger. This is their secret letter."

"Hmm?" Yin Ruoshui opened the letter and read it. As smart as he was, he asked in confusion, "They didn't mention any conditions?"

"No." The woman whispered, "Your Majesty is afraid of fraud?"

"It's worth a gamble. This time, I will personally lead 200 Yuelan light cavalrymen! I won't let the Xiongnu and Goryeo interfere. Is there anything else?"

"There is one more small matter. Last time, the prince asked us to investigate the martial arts master who saved Miss Mu's family, but the Great Xia Kingdom said they had no information."

"Well, let's go down."

Yin Ruoshui looked at the secret letter in his hand, an evil smile appeared on his face, and then he burned it with fire.

Five days later, an unwelcome guest came to the Yancheng military commander's tent.

Qin Zhengran came to the general's tent, looked at Mu Lie and the others, raised his head and said, "The war is imminent, my sister asked me to invite General Mu to go to Mobei City to discuss military affairs with Dongfang Yi."

Mu Lie thought that Qin Ruoran and Dongfang Yi had come to Huangshi Town to discuss things with him on previous occasions. Although he held a higher official position, Qin Ruoran was the military supervisor, so it was normal for him to go to Mobei City.

However, Mu Jinyu was puzzled and asked, "Does it require General Qin to personally go there for such a small matter?"

Qin Zhengran heard him say that and complained, "General Mu thinks so, too. I think so too, but my sister said that it wasn't long since Miss Mu was attacked, so we must be extra careful. She's afraid that there are spies in the Mobei Army like in the Yancheng Army, so she asked me to bring a few trusted people to escort her to avoid any more accidents."

Shi Qing looked a little unhappy after hearing this, and immediately said, "Bring more people with you, just in case."

Mu Lie shook his head: "It's okay. It will only take a few people half an incense stick of time to get there. There is no risk."

Mu Jinyu looked at Shi Qing and said, "I will accompany my father. General Shi, we should be back in half a day. I will leave the military affairs to you for the time being."

"Don't worry, the enemy won't make any moves. Just be careful."

Mu Lie looked at Qin Zhengran and said, "Let's go, Qin joins the army."

As they spoke, Mu Lie and Mu Jinyu, along with ten bodyguards, followed Qin Zhengran to Mobei City. The two places were only twenty miles apart, and the dozen or so people quickly walked half the distance.

Although the round trip was only a few dozen miles, Qin Zhengran was obviously a little impatient. After all, he was a soldier and a well-known figure in the army. He was extremely reluctant to be a bodyguard.

Thinking of his sister's attitude towards him every day, he couldn't help but complain again: "I said, in broad daylight, even if these people had a hundred courage, they wouldn't dare to run to our hinterland. Besides, I'm the only one who came to pick up the old general, how could they..."

"Swish!" Before Qin Zhengran could finish his words, two flying knives flew past him and directly knocked the two guards off their horses.

"There is an ambush! Protect me, protect me quickly!!!" Qin Zhengran's face turned pale in an instant and he shouted at the top of his lungs.

Mu Jinyu immediately dismounted and stood in front of Mu Lie to protect him. In this situation, it is best not to act rashly.

"Gee!" While asking the guards to cover him, Qin Zhengran spurred his horse to break out quickly. However, he fell to the ground with his horse before he had run thirty steps.

"Ouch! Ouch!" Qin Zhengran held his waist, barely got up and shouted, "Who dares to attack Grandpa? Get out now! Stop being suspicious."

While Qin Zhengran was hysterical, Mu Jinyu had already ordered his personal guards to take Mu Lie to a big tree and put on guard with Mu Lie as the center.

"Buzz! Buzz!" There were a few more arrow sounds. All the soldiers led by Qin Zhengran had been killed. At this moment, he began to get scared. Seeing Mu Lie hiding in the woods, he wanted to run towards them, but the constantly flying arrows made him dare not move. In desperation, he simply chose to lie on the ground motionless and pretend to be dead.

Mu Lie and Mu Jinyu looked around vigilantly. Now there were only six guards left with them.

It was quiet for only a moment, and then the dry leaves around began to creak, and from the sound of the creaking, there were no less than fifty people.

"General Mu, long time no see, come out."

When Mu Lie heard the familiar voice, he frowned and stopped hiding. He understood that if the other party wanted to kill him, there was no need for him to show up.

"Yin Ruoshui?" Mu Jinyu was very surprised to see him, because if it was an ordinary enemy soldier, they might have been unlucky to meet him, but Yin Ruoshui's appearance here meant that he was betrayed by a traitor just like Xia Qin before.

The people of Yancheng Army just found out about this. Even if there was a traitor, they didn't have time to inform Yin Ruoshui. The traitor could only be in Mobei Army and a high-ranking general.

He looked at Qin Zhengran, who was still lying on the ground and shivering, and knew it couldn't be him.

Yin Ruoshui in front of him had learned from the last lesson, and this time he was accompanied by nearly twenty martial arts masters and more than thirty death warriors.

"General Mu, Master Mu, it's true that we meet everywhere in life. We met in Liangzhou City only half a year ago, and I didn't expect to meet again."

Even though it had come to this, he couldn't surrender without a fight. Taking advantage of the moment when Yin Ruoshui was speaking, Mu Jinyu unexpectedly rushed towards him and slashed at him with a golden scimitar.

Ding! The two masters beside Yin Ruoshui blocked his attack, and two more masters came from behind to block his retreat. For a while, the flashes of swords and sabers flashed and intertwined. Although Mu Jinyu was not afraid, he could not win against four masters for a while.

Since there was no possibility of breaking out, Mu Jinyu used all his strength to push the four people back two meters and quickly retreated to his father's side.

Yin Ruoshui looked at the people surrounded and said with some regret: "Like father, like son. The Emperor of Daxia is so incompetent. It would be better for you to submit to my Yuelan Kingdom. You will definitely be more trusted and respected. Oh, and your eldest daughter, I would like to kindly remind you that you may not have a good ending if you stay in Daxia."
