After the separation, the family had a lot of fish and meat every day, and the best was furious

A disdainful smile appeared on Bartel's lips.

"Xiao Jingchuan wants to offer this city to me, so I won't refuse it, hahahaha..."

Everyone, listen up! Take over the border town and garrison both inside and outside the city.

Ah Ying, lead the vanguard to check on Xiao Jingchuan's army and see where they are resting."

The Dongxia Kingdom didn't want the border town, but Bater did. He occupied the border town and pursued Xiao Jingchuan. This was his first step to attack the Dongxia Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, the border town has become an empty one, but we just occupied it like that. It was too easy. I feel uneasy. I always feel like I've been tricked."

Lin Ting is too powerful. She always plans everything in advance. Now she is giving a city to Xiluo. Xiao Chu really can't figure out what their plan is?

"Even if I'm being plotted against, I'm determined to take this city. Humph!"

Bater gave Xiao Chu a cold look. As the seventh prince of Dongxia Kingdom, he was so timid, what great things could he accomplish?

After entering the border town, Bater first went to see where the border army was stationed. Apart from traces of life, there was no one there.

The mud in the army's training ground was trampled smooth and not a single blade of grass grew. There were people here a few days ago.

It seemed that the people and the army had just moved away less than three days ago.

After visiting these places, Bater rode his horse onto the street, and the team stopped at the plaque of Weirui Pavilion.

This was the shop where Mrs. Weirui did business back then.

There was interest in Bater's eyes. He dismounted and asked someone to break down the door of Weirui Pavilion.

The door was kicked open, and inside the shop there were a few pieces of clothing hanging on the wall, as well as a counter and an abacus.

Except for some important account books, everything is here.

There are still traces of Lin Ting's life in the backyard, including tea sets that women like, and the room is decorated with things that women like.

He couldn't see that the food and accommodation were no different from those of ordinary women. He didn't know why the witch father made the statement that whoever wins Lin's attention will win the world.

At night, Bater rested in Weirui Pavilion. Late at night, Aying came back to report.

"Your Majesty, the Dongxia army has retreated back to Shangu Pass."

Shan Gu Pass is located in a dangerous area, easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is indeed the most difficult place to attack and the only place where Dongxia Kingdom can defend themselves.

"Shan Gu Pass. Xiao Jingchuan knew that I was personally leading the battle, so he retreated inside the Shan Gu Pass. So what? The Xiluo army was once afraid of a small Shan Gu Pass."

Knowing where the Dongxia army was, Bater felt relieved.

"A Ying, prepare for defense. Tomorrow, the entire army will march to the Valley Pass and catch Xiao Jingchuan off guard."

"Yes!"

At night, Aying went to patrol the city wall and met Xiao Chu. He nodded to Xiao Chu.

"Seventh Prince, why don't you go and rest? The King has ordered us to go to Shangu Pass tomorrow. Seventh Prince, you should find a place to sleep so as not to fall behind the army."

Xiao Chu couldn't sleep. His heart was beating wildly and it felt terrible.

"Master Aying, can you improve the defense tonight? Or should we go out of the city to rest and stay out of the city?"

"Seventh Prince, Ah Ying only obeys the orders of the King. If you want to go out and sleep, please do so!"

There is a place in the city, which is much better than outside the city. Since Bater is here, Aying will naturally stay with him.

But Ah Ying didn't know that he thought he had laid a good ambush. When he found out that the Dongxia army was at Shangu Pass, it was General Han who deliberately let him go.

He also deliberately let him and his men see the Shan Gu Pass army. Half an hour after they retreated, Han Yan's army followed behind them.

Now General Han’s army killed the Xiluo soldiers patrolling the periphery.

The shield army is in front and the musketeers are behind, and they are about to surround the entire border town.

In the middle of the night, the first gunshot in the border town resounded throughout the sky, and the sound of war drums outside the city woke up the entire Xiluo army in the border town.

Xiao Chu, who had trouble sleeping to begin with, was immediately made to sit up by the sound.

He climbed onto the wall and looked at the outskirts of the border town. Tens of thousands of soldiers were holding torches and densely packed together. The leader was not Xiao Jingchuan, but Han Yan.

Bater also rushed over from Weirui Pavilion. Their people were surrounded in this empty city, and outside were Han Yan's Dongxia army.

"Bater, long time no see, but do you still remember me?"

Before Bater became the King of Xiluo, General Han had already fought with him. He was quite strong and was a qualified opponent.

Bater turned to look at A Ying: "What's going on, A Ying? Didn't they say that Xi Luo's army is at the Valley Pass? What's going on outside the city now?"

Ah Ying bent down and said, “Today, Shen did see the army of Dongxia at Shangu Pass, and Han Yan was also there.”

It was obvious that Bater had fallen into a trap. The Dongxia Kingdom did not give up the border town, but wanted to use this city to trap them.

They were supposed to be on the outskirts, but now they are inside the city. Damn it.

The two armies were far apart, and Bater stepped forward with a stern face.

"General Han, it's been a long time since we last met. After being poisoned, you didn't die. Why didn't you go home and farm? Did you come here to die?"

Han Yan sat on horseback, holding a spear in his hand and speaking in a loud voice.

"It's not like you're sending yourself to die. I'm here to see how you die."

The two armies were in a stalemate. General Han simply surrounded the border town and did not attack. He just guarded the border town and did not let a single person out.

After waiting for a long time, Han Yan still didn't make any move. Bater couldn't help it and sent a soldier out of the city gate to challenge him.

Han Yan looked at the people coming out of the border town gate and trotted on his horse, before the person who challenged him could start cursing.

General Han waved his hand, and the deputy envoy of the vanguard raised his musket and shot the man directly in the head.

The blow was fatal. He had no power to resist and fell straight off his horse.

Bater and Aying took a step back. They only heard a loud bang and didn't see what weapon Han Yan used. He killed his soldiers just like that.

And it’s still a fatal move.

General Han gave orders in his rough voice.

"All Han family soldiers, listen to my order. Anyone in the city who dares to go out more than ten steps, like this man, will be killed."

General Han did not say this to the Dongxia army, but to Bater and others on the city wall.

Seeing that Dongxia Kingdom had such powerful weapons, Bater was filled with anger. He turned around and went behind the wall and picked up Xiao Chu.

"Xiao Chu, you didn't tell me the truth. What weapon did Han Yan just use? Tell me quickly."

Since it is a weapon from the Dongxia Kingdom, no one here knows it better than Xiao Chu.

"Your Majesty, I...I don't know either..."

Xiao Chu was also watching secretly in the corner just now. The man who challenged the enemy died too quickly. There was only a sound and a bloody hole on the forehead of the Xiluo soldier. Nothing else could be seen.

Xiao Chu had never seen or heard of a weapon that could cause such damage in Dongxia Kingdom, and he really didn't know what it was.

"Aren't you the Seventh Prince of Dongxia? There's something you don't know. If you dare to lie to me, I'll make sure you die miserably!"
