Rebirth of the Prime Minister's Daughter: Not to be Trifled With

One day, Shen Shi stood on a high place, gazing into the distance, pondering his next plan.

Just then, his subordinates rushed over, bringing with them an imperial edict from the capital.

It turned out that Emperor Changwen was greatly pleased after seeing the battle situation. He praised Shen Shi's bravery and bestowed upon him a generous reward.

After expressing his gratitude, Shen Shi became even more determined to serve his country.

At this moment, Su Nanxuan and Shen Tianyi walked over. Su Nanxuan spoke first, asking, "Sixth Uncle, what are your plans next?"

After hearing this, Shen Shi turned around, looked at Su Nanxuan, and said with a firm gaze, "I will continue to stay on the frontier to protect the territory of Tianyue Kingdom, in order to repay the Emperor's kindness."

After hearing this, Shen Tianyi looked at Shen Shi and nodded in support.

However, Su Nanxuan looked at Shen Shi and said thoughtfully, "Sixth Uncle, you have made great achievements in this battle. Why don't you return to the capital to receive your title and reunite with your family?"

Shen Shi also longed to go home and reunite with his family, but he knew that the situation on the border was still very serious, and leaving at this time would not be a wise move.

Therefore, Shen Shi politely declined Su Nanxuan's suggestion, saying, "Nanxuan, as your sixth uncle, I am a general and have a responsibility to protect the territory of our Tianyue Kingdom. It's not too late for me to return home after the border is at peace!"

After listening, Su Nanxuan looked at Shen Shi and understood his decision, so he stopped trying to persuade him. The three of them then discussed future strategies and decided to strengthen border defenses to prevent enemy attacks.

Just then, a soldier rushed over and reported, "General, we have spotted a group of unidentified people approaching our camp."

Upon hearing this, Shen Shi's expression changed, and he spoke with murderous intent, "How dare they come to our camp to cause trouble? Are those people tired of living?"

"Immediately have our men open a gap and let them in, so they won't come back alive. We absolutely cannot let them escape."

After hearing this, Su Nanxuan and Shen Tianyi looked at Shen Shi and couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected, experience is the best teacher! No wonder he's so amazing!"

Seeing this, Shen Shi glanced at Su Nanxuan and Shen Tianyi and smiled. Then, at Shen Shi's command, the soldiers quickly sprang into action.

The camp gate slowly opened, and it seemed as if there was no one there; it was exceptionally quiet.

The group first sent one person in to investigate the situation, but found nothing unusual.

The man waved his hand, signaling the others to follow. Seeing this, the others followed without hesitation.

However, what they didn't expect was that this was a trap deliberately set by Shen Shi. At this time, a large number of soldiers had already been lying in ambush in the camp, waiting for the enemy to walk into the trap.

As soon as the group entered the camp, soldiers from all directions rushed out and surrounded them.

Shen Shi, mounted on his horse, stared at the trapped enemy, a resolute glint in his eyes.

"Kill!" He brandished his longsword and led his soldiers in a fierce attack.

A fierce battle ensued, with swords clashing and shouts of battle rising and falling. Under Shen Shi's command, the soldiers fought bravely, giving the enemy no chance to catch their breath.

After a fierce battle, the enemy was finally wiped out. Shen Shi looked at the corpses scattered on the ground, feeling a great sense of accomplishment.

He turned to look at Su Nanxuan and Shen Tianyi, and said in a low voice, "This time, thanks to everyone's concerted efforts, we were able to defeat the enemy so smoothly."

"However, we cannot let our guard down and must strengthen our defenses to cope with any further challenges that may come."

After hearing this, Shen Tianyi and Su Nanxuan looked at Shen Shi and said in unison, "Yes, we will obey the general's orders!"

Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye. One evening, the enemy troops, 600 li away, were banging drums and gongs and shouting, "Shen Shi inside, you listen to me, get out here and face your death!"

Hearing the commotion outside, Shen Shi realized that the group was after him, but he still didn't want to pay any attention to it.

Seeing that there was still no movement coming from inside, the people outside shouted loudly again, "Shen Shi, why don't you get out here and face your death? Do you want your grandpa to go in and arrest you personally?"

Shen Shi glanced at his subordinates and said in a low voice, "Those people shouting outside are probably here for me."

After hearing this, the subordinates glanced at Shen Shi and nodded without saying a word.

Immediately, Shen Shi called over Deputy General Li and whispered, "Deputy General Li, send a few men to investigate the background of those people outside. Be sure to be careful!"

After receiving his orders, Lieutenant General Li turned and left. He selected several capable and shrewd scouts. A short while later, the scouts returned with news.

Lieutenant Li glanced at Shen Shi and said with a grave expression, "General, you guessed correctly, those people outside are indeed after you!"

"General, do you still remember the enemy marshal from last time?" Upon hearing this, Shen Shi suddenly remembered the marshal he had killed last time.

Shen Shi looked at Lieutenant General Li with a puzzled expression and asked in a low voice, "Lieutenant General Li, what does this have to do with anything?"

"General, this is a very serious matter!" Lieutenant General Li said thoughtfully, "The enemy marshal outside is the younger brother of the marshal from last time!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Shi understood. His eyes sharpened, and he said with a cold smile, "This general isn't even afraid of his brother, why would I be afraid of him?"

Immediately, Shen Shi turned to Lieutenant General Li and ordered, "Pass down the order: all soldiers, prepare for battle!"

A tense atmosphere filled the camp, soldiers sharpening their swords and standing ready for battle. As night fell, the enemy camp was brightly lit, and the drums thundered.

Shen Shi, clad in full military attire, stood at the forefront of the army on horseback, resembling a god of war, awe-inspiring and inviolable. With his command, the two sides clashed in close combat, the sounds of battle deafening.

Shen Shi took the lead and charged into the enemy ranks. His long sword gleamed coldly, and with each swing, he took a life.

Under his leadership, the soldiers were greatly encouraged and forged ahead bravely.

The bloody battle lasted for several hours. The enemy marshal led his remaining troops in a desperate fight, but ultimately failed to turn the tide and abandoned his troops to flee.

The remnants of the enemy army were utterly disheartened upon seeing this. They had risked their lives for their marshal, braving countless dangers. Yet, the marshal had disregarded their fate and fled on his own.

Thus, the remnants of the enemy forces abandoned their fearless resistance and surrendered one after another. Shen Shi assigned Shen Tianyi to receive the prisoners of war, while Su Nanxuan was responsible for helping to clean up the battlefield.

After making these arrangements, Shen Shi took out paper and pen and wrote down the battle situation. It read that he had successfully led his troops to repel all the enemies and would soon be able to return to the capital.

After Shen Shi finished writing, he instructed his most trusted subordinate to send the battle report back to the capital as quickly as possible to present it to the emperor.
