The number one spendthrift woman in the capital actually brings glory to her entire family?

Li Ji, who had been anxiously waiting with deep sorrow, finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and then turned to give a passionate rousing speech to his 50,000 soldiers: "Brothers, the Liao army oppresses our border people, persecutes and plunders our Dayong people, and destroys the peace of our Dayong border. Their crimes are heinous. You are all loyal and brave men of Dayong. To protect our homeland and establish merit..."

Before Li Ji could finish speaking, the Minister of Works strode over, blocking his path. She drew her Moon Soul sword, its crimson light shooting obliquely into the night sky like the aurora borealis. Her face was filled with a fierce and terrifying killing intent as she roared angrily at the soldiers below, "These Western barbarians have gone too far! They not only killed our General Zhang, but also slaughtered all three thousand of my brothers! If I, Sikong Jin, don't avenge this, I'm a spineless coward! And you are his subordinates! They think I, Sikong Jin, am a spineless wimp? They dare to bully me! I'll see if only the men of the Great Liao have guts and courage! I've tolerated them for too long; I've long since grown tired of them!"

"Listen up! This battle is to avenge our fallen brothers. Fight them well! Western barbarians, kill them all! If you win, the same rules apply! Remember, whoever captures Qihar must leave him alive. That son of a bitch, if I don't skin him alive, I, Sikong Jin, am finished. You can all go home and eat your own food!"

"Long live! Long live! We'll storm Tashe City and capture Qihar alive!"

"Kill them! Beat those damned Western barbarians to a pulp and show them the might of our Four Banners Army!"

"Let's go crazy! We can finally beat those bastards to a pulp! Scream, brothers! Avenge our fallen comrades! Kill them!"

The soldiers below began brandishing their swords, howling wildly. Stimulated by Lord Sikong's words, their blood boiled, and they roared like wolves, "Long live the Lord! Long live the Lord! Kill! Long live the Lord!"

"The army moves out!"

The crimson sword flashed as it was sheathed. With a graceful leap, Lord Sikong accurately mounted a nearby horse. Immediately afterward, a resounding bugle call rang out, and in response to the stirring morale, Li Ji led the singing of a military song—

If our motherland is invaded, patriotic men should stand up for themselves.

Drink this bowl of hometown wine dry, for the brave warrior will never return.

The mighty Yellow River, its sacred waves surging forth...

Give me life, give me strength

……

The thunderous roar of hooves shook the entire earth as the horses surged towards Tashe City like a tidal wave.

What happens next will be like a thunderclap in the sky above the Fengyun Continent, and like a spring thunderclap in the heart of every Dayong person. The entire Dayong, which has been suppressed for so long, will be invigorated!

A historic turning point began to occur on the continent of Fengyun, and a glorious moment was forever recorded in history!

……

Sikong Jin's army set off from Malan City with Tashe City as its destination. His 50,000 troops were all agile light cavalry.

No one knew the terrain of Malan City better than Sikong Jin. She often wandered around and was already familiar with the terrain and environment. Her 50,000 troops had been trained into a new elite force after nearly three months of grueling training by Sikong Jin.

They possess iron discipline, robust physiques, high vigilance, quick reflexes, and agility. Among them are many veteran soldiers of the original Four Banners Army, who are highly experienced, and the entire unit maintains excellent unity.

Instead of taking the official roads, the Minister of Works chose shortcuts. To avoid being exposed, they dared not linger in the same place, marched at a fast pace, and sent out many scouts to explore ahead.

The army marched day and night, and three days later, they unexpectedly appeared in a dense forest less than 20 miles from the east gate of Tashe City. The unprepared Tashe City had no idea where Sikong Jin's army had come from. By the time they received the report from the scouts, Sikong Jin's army had already approached Tashe City.

The city's garrison general, Qihar, was so enraged that he beheaded all the scouts who had gone out to investigate!

"Useless! All of you are useless!"

Inside the study of the general's mansion in Tashe City, the robust and burly Qihar overturned a teacup on the table and roared angrily, "You only just realized the enemy was at the gates? Were all the scouts we sent out useless? Were those Dayong soldiers heavenly soldiers descending from the sky? A bunch of idiots! What use are you to me? Get out of here!"

He kicked the kneeling scout away, then slammed his hand on the coffee table beside him. The coffee table shook violently and shattered instantly, with teacups scattered all over the floor.

"General, let's not rush. We don't know the enemy's current situation yet. Besides, we have nearly 150,000 troops at our disposal. There's no need to be afraid of the Dayong army!"

The strategist Hari, who was standing nearby, quickly offered some advice.

"Haven't you figured out the enemy's situation yet?"

Qihar roared angrily.

The moment the voice faded, a report came from outside, and a scout rushed in!

"How is it? Have you found out the enemy's situation?"

The strategist, Hari, hurriedly asked anxiously.

"Reporting to Your Excellency, we have investigated thoroughly! This army is none other than the army of Sikong Jin of Malan City in Dayong, numbering a full fifty thousand men, all light cavalry, under the command of their commander Sikong Jin. The army is now only twenty li away from our Tashe City!"

The scout replied.

"Fifty thousand men? Are you sure?"

"Yes, my lord!"

Hari nodded and waved, "You may leave!"

As he spoke, he turned to look at Qihar, whose face was cold and gloomy. After thinking for a moment, he said, "General, there is no need to worry. It's only 50,000 troops. They probably don't know how many troops we have in the city."

"Sikong Jin of Malan City? Who is he? How dare he have such audacity to attack my Tashe City with a mere 50,000 troops? Has he been kicked in the head by a donkey? He's truly courting death!"

A disdainful sneer flashed in Qihar's eyes as he coldly said.

"General, we must not underestimate this Sikong Jin. His Highness the Crown Prince fought him on the northwestern border before, and he specifically told us to be extremely cautious if we encounter him in the future. There aren't many people who can impress the Crown Prince. Since Sikong Jin has earned such high praise from him, he must have some extraordinary abilities! Therefore, we still cannot be careless!"

Suddenly, the words that Xifenglie had reminded him of flashed through Ha Ri's mind, and he was taken aback. He couldn't help but say something.
