Lu Yinheng, whom Ji Yunshuang was thinking about, was standing on the high city wall of Beiguan with night vision binoculars in hand.

Through the binoculars, one could see a dark mass of soldiers moving rapidly toward their position.

At this moment, Su Zimu couldn't care less about anything else.

Whether Ji Yunshuang is truly a savior or not, he can wait until later to verify.

But now, we absolutely cannot let the people of Canglan Kingdom invade.

Even if King Jing of Qi were to fall completely, and the state of Qi were to be renamed Da Qi and Ji Yunshuang honored as emperor, the people on the border would not necessarily be unable to survive.

But if the Canglan Kingdom were to invade, the people on the border might not survive.

He gave orders to his confidants, forbidding them from having any other thoughts and to focus all their efforts on fighting the enemy.

He then told the soldiers that Lu Yinheng and General Yao had long known that Canglan Kingdom was going to attack Beiguan, so they brought men to help them guard the pass.

There should be no resentment towards the new soldiers joining the army. The most important thing now is to unite and fight the enemy together.

With a formidable enemy at hand, and given Su Zimu's words, the soldiers naturally obeyed him.

The main problem is that you can't ignore it.

The Canglan Kingdom must have heard the news of the great chaos in the Qi Kingdom and felt that this was a good opportunity to take over the Qi Kingdom, and made preparations to take it over at all costs.

This time, 200,000 troops were mobilized.

The North Gate only had 50,000 soldiers, and even with the troops brought by Lu Yinheng, it was only a mere 60,000.

Sixty thousand soldiers fighting against an army of two hundred thousand is an extremely difficult task.

Su Zimu felt a tightness in his heart as he thought about the Canglan Kingdom army he had seen using the divine artifact in Lu Yinheng's hand.

Can they really withstand an army of 200,000?

His gaze fell on Yao Guangji, Zhu Qi, and other people dressed in strange clothes.

Not only were they dressed strangely, but the things they carried were also very strange—things they had never seen before.

At that moment, they were holding that thing up, aiming it at the Canglan Kingdom soldiers who were constantly moving towards them.

It is said that the weapons they wield were given to them by their revered divine ruler, and that they can fight off a hundred men, each capable of holding off thousands of archers.

But he hadn't seen them use it yet, so he didn't know if they were exaggerating.

When the Canglan army was one kilometer from the city wall, Lu Yinheng said, "Everyone, get ready!"

Yao Guangji and the others all had slightly sweaty palms.

They cherished the weapons Ji Yunshuang gave them. They avoided using them whenever possible throughout the journey.

As for the machine guns they're holding now, they've learned how to use them, but they haven't actually used them many times.

At this moment, everyone was a little nervous. Some even unconsciously recalled the method Ji Yunshuang had taught them.

After watching the Canglan Kingdom soldiers move several hundred meters further in their direction, Lu Yinheng shouted, "Begin firing!"

At his command, Yao Guangji and the others pulled the triggers in unison.

Suddenly, a series of rapid, violent "rat-a-tat-tat" sounds rang out from the city wall. At the same time, screams of agony echoed from afar.

The king, generals, and all the generals of Canglan Kingdom were stunned by this sudden change.

As early as when he decided to launch a sneak attack on Beiguan tonight, Emperor Xuanzhao of Canglan Kingdom had prepared for the possibility that the general of Beiguan would discover him.

After all, the Su family had three generations of generals, and Su Zimu was no coward.

He will discover their intentions and prepare in advance, as they had anticipated this.

Shield soldiers were deployed in advance to guard against the Qi army's archers.

They assumed the shield bearers would only begin their defense when they were about 100 meters from the city gate. But now, when they were still 300-400 meters from the city wall, the Qi army suddenly launched an attack on them.

Moreover, their soldiers were all hit.

This sudden turn of events caught both the soldiers of Canglan Kingdom off guard and the king himself, who was personally leading the army.

In an instant, the Canglan Kingdom's army was thrown into chaos.

Some soldiers were so panicked that they dropped their weapons and fled in haste. But they hadn't even taken two steps before they collapsed to the ground.

Emperor Xuanzhao, his eyes blazing with fury at the sudden chaos of the ranks, roared, "Don't panic! Shield bearers, raise your shields!"

The shield bearers then realized they still had shields. They hurriedly raised their shields.

But these shields were completely useless.

The bullets pierced their shields, and the soldiers hiding behind them were hit, instantly bleeding from their heads.

Soldiers hiding behind shields fell in droves, and the Canglan Kingdom's soldiers were in complete panic. Emperor Xuanzhao also stared wide-eyed at the scene in disbelief.

how come?

How could this be?

"Your Majesty, let's retreat quickly!" Ling Yixiao, protecting Emperor Xuanzhao, advised, "The Qi army has used some kind of demonic weapon, making them incredibly fierce. If we continue fighting rashly, our losses will be even greater. Let's retreat to a safe area first and discuss it later."

Emperor Xuanzhao originally thought that with his personal expedition and an army of 200,000, he could capture Beiguan in just one battle.

To their utter surprise, they didn't even reach the city gate of Beiguan.

He was unwilling, but he also understood that Ling Yixiao made sense.

"Retreat!" he ordered, and fled in a sorry state, surrounded by his guards.

Seeing that the soldiers of Canglan Kingdom had withdrawn from firing range, Lu Yinheng also ordered, "Stop!"

Upon hearing the order, Yao Guangji and the others ceased firing.

Su Zimu, along with the archers on the city gate who were waiting to fire their bows, were stunned and didn't come to their senses for a long time.

And so, the soldiers of Canglan Kingdom withdrew?

With just over thirty men, they repelled the soldiers of the Canglan Kingdom, causing their 200,000-strong army to flee in disarray.

They drove off an army of 200,000 without suffering a single wounded.

What kind of amazing weapon is this?

so amazing!

It's amazing.

Su Zimu suddenly remembered what Yao Guangji and Zhu Qi had said. They said that Ji Yunshuang was a celestial being descended to earth, a very capable person, and that she could take over the Qi Kingdom fairly and squarely on her own merits.

She would never resort to such despicable means as the plague; her character prevents her from doing so, and she disdains it!

At that moment, he suddenly believed what they said.

Perhaps it really was King Jing of Qi's men who lied.

Given Ji Yunshuang's strength, she could easily conquer the entire Qi Kingdom. Why would she need to resort to other insidious methods?

He finally understood the deeper meaning behind what Lu Yinheng had said to him before.

They certainly had the ability to take Beiguan by force. But they didn't, because they already considered them as their own people and didn't want their own people to harm each other.

Su Zimu's heart was churning with emotions, a myriad of thoughts rushing into his mind. Finally, he excitedly said "good" several times to Lu Yinheng.

Yao Guangji and his men with machine guns were also filled with excitement. The weapons His Majesty had given them were truly excellent, and this battle was incredibly exhilarating.

They had fought on the battlefield for many years, but never had a battle been fought so smoothly as today.
