Time Travel: The Foolish Lady is Forced to Become a Female General

Chapter 70: Only 5, I can defeat the enemy with 2 people!

The sneaky soldier looked carefully and saw that it was Mu Jinyu. He was panicked: "Mu, General Mu!"

Mu Jinyu's face was gloomy, and he lowered his voice: "Where are you going so late? Are you surrendering to the enemy and committing treason?"

"No, no!" The soldier immediately knelt down, "General Mu, please spare my life! General Mu, please spare my life!"

Mu Jinyu's expression remained unchanged: "You are a traitor to the country and your entire family will be executed. I will kill you now and report to His Majesty later to exterminate your entire family!"

"General Mu, please understand," the soldier trembled, "I am Wei Cheng, a general under Captain Wang, and I have been ordered to deliver a letter to Qin, the military supervisor in Mobei City."

Mu Jinyu naturally knew that he was Wang Zheng's subordinate and he had been watching him for a long time.

Wei Cheng handed the letter to Mu Jinyu with trembling hands.

"Today, Mu Jinyan and a Jianghu man escorted siege equipment to the Yancheng military camp."

Mu Jinyu returned the letter to Wei Cheng and asked coldly, "What message did you send each time? How many times have you sent it?"

"General Mu, no, not many times. I have not read the contents of the letter. I am just following the orders of Captain Wang."

"Send it over," Mu Jinyu turned and left, his tone flat, "But if you want to live, whether you send or reply to a letter in the future, let this general read it first. Otherwise, whether it's you or Wang Zheng, this general will definitely cut off the roots!"

"Yes, yes, General Mu," Wei Cheng continued kneeling, "I will obey your orders!"

Mu Jinyu glanced at his back, turned around and disappeared into the night.

In Mobei City, Qin Ruoran looked at the secret letter, and the expression on his face gradually became distorted.

Putting down the secret letter, she thought back to the past month since she came to the Northern Territory. It seemed that from the first time she saw Xia Qin in Huangshi Town, this woman had become a nuisance to her.

Her original purpose of coming to the Northern Territory was to suppress Mu Lie and the Yancheng Army as much as possible, and to meet her brother Dongfang by the way.

Not to mention that he has lost the power to supervise Mu Lie and the Yancheng Army, Dongfang Yi is obviously also obsessed with Mu Jinyan.

She was extremely angry because she had failed to kill Xia Qin after both privately dealing with Yuelan Kingdom and sending assassins to kill her. But now she has calmed down.

The mist in her eyes dissipated, and she looked at Qiu Qianshan who was kneeling beside her.

"Senior Qiu, is this Mo Ye really that powerful? Isn't your Wanjian Villa the largest sect in the martial arts world now?"

Qiu Qianshan bowed his head respectfully and said, "Miss, if it is a real head-on fight, I have nearly a thousand disciples from Wanjian Villa, and Sir Qin's support, so I am not afraid."

Qin Ruoran said indifferently: "Then what are you worried about? Does he have any power? If you are afraid, I can write a letter to the government to wipe them out as bandits."

Qiu Qianshan heard Qin Ruoran say this, looked up at her, then quickly lowered his head and said: "Miss, if it were an ordinary martial arts sect, no matter how strong or powerful they are, they would not dare to go against the government, but..."

"Just what?!" Qin Ruoran was displeased.

"This Mo Ye and some of his friends are elusive. Their whereabouts, origins, and families are unknown to us in Wanjian Villa, and the entire martial arts world."

Qin Ruoran understood what Qiu Qianshan meant: "So they have no scruples? They are committing violence everywhere?"

"Miss, they are considered as wandering people in the martial arts world. They are not violent, but they often do chivalrous things. They have a good reputation in the martial arts world."

"I see……"

Qin Ruoran suddenly realized that, indeed, this kind of people were not easy to deal with and it was best not to provoke them. No wonder the disciples of Wanjian Villa were unwilling to even take action.

However, she naturally had other ways to deal with the Mu family and Xia Qin.

On the second day, in the commander's tent, Mu Lie, Mu Jinyu, Shi Qing and other generals of the Yancheng army deployed the siege.

Xia Qin and Mo Ye were naturally among them.

Mu Lie looked at the sand table, his tone a little tired: "There is still half a month left before the time required by His Majesty. In any case, we should attack the city in the next few days."

Shi Qing lowered his head and said nothing, his face showing obvious lack of confidence.

Captain Lu Yu stepped forward to express his opinion: "General Mu, this city may be difficult to attack. I remember that Mu Zhonglang said that we can explain it by winning a few battles, right?"

As he spoke, he looked at Xia Qin with unfriendly eyes.

Mu Jinyu glanced at them coldly, and said indifferently: "Based on our observations over the past few days, the enemy has been divided into two armies. We have to face the 10,000 defenders in Yunzhong City, and we also have to be wary of the 50,000 Xiongnu troops outside Qingyun City."

Wang Zheng glanced at Xia Qin and stood up with ill intentions: "I'm afraid the chances of winning a direct attack against twice as many Xiongnu cavalry as ours are. However, Mu Zhonglang has had the craftsmen make some siege equipment these days, which will surely come in handy."

Xia Qin glanced at Wang Zheng and said with a faint smile, "Captain Wang is paying attention to the siege equipment? That's thoughtful of you."

Mu Jinyu also glanced at Wang Zheng, but a hint of murderous intent was rising behind his calm expression.

Shi Qing also looked at Wang Zheng in confusion. Although Wang Zheng was not as steady as Qi Ning, he was not as tactless as Li Gui and Lu Yu. For some reason, he had a vague tendency to attack Xia Qin today.

Wang Zheng looked at Mu Lie and Mu Jinyu, then stared at Xia Qin and said, "Whatever happens in the army, the soldiers see it all, so there's no need for me to pretend to be deaf and dumb."

"That's right!" Another lieutenant, Li Gui, also stood up suddenly and said, "The siege is imminent, and the military craftsmen are not busy making or improving siege hammers. Instead, they are busy making these rare and unique things according to Mu Zhonglang's requirements. It seems that they must be of great use. Now it's time for us to open our eyes."

Mu Lie narrowed his eyes and looked at the three people, frowning slightly.

Chu He didn't say anything this time, but just looked at Xia Qin anxiously, fearing that she would be unable to cope with it.

Mo Ye stood beside Xia Qin with his arms folded, looking at Wang Zheng, Lu Yu and Li Gui with some curiosity, a slight smile on his face.

"We need to prepare for the siege," Mu Jinyu walked to Xia Qin's side to show his support, "Besides, the 5,000 Xiongnu vanguard troops have been watching us 30 miles away. If we attack rashly without careful planning, we will be in a passive position."

Having said this, Wang Zheng still refused to give in: "General Mu, if we continue to delay like this, the situation will probably not change. I suggest that we discuss this with the Mobei Army. Only by cooperating with each other can we have a chance to defeat the Xiongnu army."

"Yes," Lu Yu followed up, "Our two armies combined have nearly 60,000 people. As long as we catch them by surprise, it is not impossible to encircle and annihilate the Xiongnu army!"

Chu He, who had been silent for a long time, obviously did not support their approach: "Everyone, the people who colluded with the enemy last time in the Mobei Army have not been found yet. It is unsafe and inappropriate to cooperate with them now!"

"Now that General Mu and his family are safe and sound, don't worry about it," Wang Zheng insisted. "Besides, that incident may not have been done by a traitor."

After these words were spoken, Mu Lie, Mu Jinyu and Xia Qin's faces no longer calmed down, and the three of them stared at Wang Zheng intently.

He felt uneasy being stared at, and quickly explained: "I don't mean anything else, but we are really short of troops, and delaying is not a solution."

Xia Qin didn't know why these captains were suddenly so aggressive today, but it was absolutely impossible to cooperate with Qin Ruoran now.

Chu He continued to refute: "Captain Wang, the number of people is not a problem. If the tactics are right, it is not impossible to win with fewer people!"

"To defeat the enemy with fewer people? In this desert?" Lu Yu said with disdain, "The Xiongnu now has 5,000 vanguards, and you are going to take 2,000 people to solve the problem?"

"Why two thousand?" Xia Qin thought that this captain of the Yancheng Army should be made to behave himself. "Captain Chuhe, bring two hundred cavalrymen with me today, and we can repel these five thousand vanguard troops!"

Two hundred? Mu Lie and Mu Jinyu looked at Xia Qin instantly.

Wang Zheng and others were also shocked by Xia Qin's words. They were speechless for a moment and only reacted after a while.

"Mu Zhonglang, there is no joking in the army. You want to attack the enemy's 5,000 vanguard troops with 200 cavalry?" Wang Zheng's eyes flickered. "Let me remind you that these 5,000 vanguard troops are the elite cavalry of the Xiongnu."
