Lu Shengji's body was shocked. Where did this villain come from? This person's name was not on the list of officials and generals given to him by his brother Lu Shenghe. How dare he kidnap and kill his people? Was he trying to wipe out their entire clan?

Lu Shengji knew very well that this person was closely related to Xie Chibei and Mu Jinan, and that he must be here to help Mu Jinan enter the city. Since he had already lost his relatives, he could not let Mu Jinan enter the city. He looked at Mu Jinan from afar with hatred under the tower:

"Prince Xi is a princess who was married to a foreign king. He has returned to the country secretly. He is a traitor who is causing chaos in the world. I will take your head on behalf of His Majesty."

"Open the city gates and meet the enemy!"

Mu Jinan looked up at the impregnable Youzhou city gate. She could kill the deputy general on the grassland, so she could also fight her way out here. Otherwise, it would be a shame for the hardships she had experienced this year. She pointed the cold sword at Lu Shengji:

“Lu Shengji, I will make it known to the world that Princess Huaixi and Prince Shengguo are traitors who are trying to quell the rebellion and save the people. Even if the gods and ghosts deceive me and the imperial power blocks me, I, Mu Jinan, will kill the enemies with my bloody sword and will not abandon my own body. I will not abandon my people even if the sick are in my arms. In Youzhou, I will march through the city and take your head!”

Xie Chibei felt relieved to hear that she didn't say anything risking her life this time. The two of them smiled at each other. How could they not know that the gate of Youzhou city was raised? They were afraid that Lu Shengji would not be willing to go out of the city gate to meet the enemy.

Both the Shiyan Army and the Youzhou Army heard Mu Jinan's killing cry that broke through the sky. The Youzhou Army had the "momentum" to retreat without even fighting. This was a female official who survived the hands of Emperor Ming, killed several deputy generals, and was conferred the title of prince. She was superior to Lu Shengji in both courage and ability. How could they not be afraid?

A brave man joins the army, one reason is to serve his country, two is to return home, and three is to obey a good general. After all, the general is incompetent and the army is exhausted.

Next to Lu Shengji stood a deputy general. He felt that since the city gate had been raised, it would be difficult to break through easily. Now all they had to do was close the city gate and wear down Xie Chibei. The Shiyan Army would eventually run out of food.

A low voice rang in Mu Jinan's ears. She saw tall dark blue city walls protecting two black gates. The moment the gates opened, overwhelming sunlight penetrated through the clouds and shone into the dark ancient city, awakening countless passionate soldiers, just to stop their compatriots from returning home.

The sunlight at the city gate entrance was blocked by the dark armored army, and shields, halberds and swords suddenly surged towards Mu Jinan like a tide.

Mu Jinan, Xie Chibei, Gu Wenxuan and others all drew their swords to meet the enemy, only to hear Xie Chibei encouraging the soldiers in the camp:

"So it's the defeated soldiers outside Sheng'an City. The Shiyan Army, listen to my orders. You have defeated 70,000 grassland warriors. Why are you afraid of the defeated soldiers? Kill them for me!"

Among the Youzhou soldiers were some defeated soldiers who had escaped from Sheng'an City. They knew Mu Jinan and Xie Chibei. Chen Xuan's words about Mu Jinan's support in front of 50,000 soldiers were still echoing in their ears.

Moreover, this matter had already spread throughout the Youzhou military camp, and they were indeed a little afraid when facing the Shiyan Army.

During the time when Mu Jinan was in a coma, Gu Wenxuan deliberately spread the news that the 5,000-strong Shiyan Army had defeated the 70,000-strong army on the grassland to the world.

Many soldiers in Youzhou knew that the Shiyan Army was surrounded by many troops on the grassland. They killed Fan Zheng and his deputy Jiang Chen, captured Fan Zhaoyang and Yuan Ming, and signed a contract with their enemy, Qi King Li Jie. The two armies started fighting.

The Shiyan Army had gained experience since the last battle and their morale was greatly boosted. After Fan Zheng and Yelu Chang were defeated, they seized a lot of good armor and weapons.

During the past three months, the Shiyan Army has not slacked off at all, and their martial arts are even better than before. It is not difficult for one person to kill thirty or forty Youzhou soldiers.

The two thousand warriors that Li Jie left for Mu Jinan were extremely powerful. The leader, Xuan Heye, wore armor made by Gu Wenxuan at a huge expense. No armor-piercing crossbow could penetrate his armor.
