Joy of Life: I dressed as a woman and became the Queen of Northern Qi!

Chapter 33 Haitang Duoduo: He is a man? A man? ?
Chen Luo turned off the system, moved his head and found a more comfortable position to fall asleep.

Haitang Duoduo looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Just now, she clearly felt that Chen Luo seemed to have become stronger.

It felt like a force was suddenly infused into his body.

As a master among the ninth rank, she didn't think this was an illusion.

But she didn't ask anything, just like she didn't ask where Qinglong and his people came from.

She just needed to know that Chen Luo was still the same Chen Luo. There was no point in asking any other questions.

Haitang Duoduo closed her eyes and began to take a nap.

One night passed and it was early morning.

Chen Luo rubbed the soft "pillow" under his head and felt that life was just like this.

He opened his eyes comfortably, and when he looked up, he met Haitang Duoduo's eyes with a strange smile on her face.

"Duoduo, why did you wake up so early? You should have called me when you woke up."

Chen Luo keenly sensed that something was wrong.

Day, forgot, his second brother was very active in the morning.

If Haitang Duoduo moves, she might be able to sense something, right?

I shouldn’t have been so close to Haitang Duoduo last night.

Chen Luo felt bitter in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face.

In a very normal state, he left Haitang Duoduo's arms and stayed away from her.

"It's not too early, I just didn't sleep one night."

"It's already noon, it's time to get up and wash up. Someone will come and say that Uesugi Tora wants to see you."

Haitang Duoduo's smile faded. She stood up and dressed indifferently, doing it in one go.

Seeing her like this, Chen Luo could no longer fail to understand that Haitang Duoduo had already discovered that he was a man.

But seeing her like this, Chen Luo felt a lot more relieved.

This is good, at least Haitang Duoduo won’t come over.

It’s a pity that there may not be such a fragrant and soft ‘pillow’ in the future.

Chen Luo got up anxiously.

During the whole process, Haitang Duoduo just stood aside, looking at him quietly without saying a word.

This state continued until I finished breakfast...

Just after breakfast, the maid came to report that Uesugi Tora wanted to see him.

Chen Luo sat in the main seat: "Let the general come in."

As for Uesugi Tora, he always wanted to conquer him.

After last night's battle, he became more determined in this idea.

Uesugi Tora may not be considered a great general throughout history, nor a very powerful commander.

But the role of Uesugi Tora is that he is famous enough.

On the border, Uesugi Tiger is the morale pump that can boost the soldiers' morale.

Sometimes the morale of soldiers is much more important than their strength, so there is no need to explain the importance of Uesugi Tiger.

Not long after, Uesugi Tora arrived, dressed in military uniform and with a faint smell of blood.

When he was still a dozen steps away from Chen Luo, Uesugi Tora knelt on the ground with a thud and said respectfully.

"Your servant, Shang Shanhu, pays respect to Her Majesty the Queen and Her Majesty the Saint!"

As the general of Northern Qi, he nominally commanded all the troops in the world.

Uesugi Tora could be said to be one of only two ministers in the Northern Qi court who did not have to kneel when seeing the emperor.

The other was Zhuang Mohan, a great Confucian scholar of the Northern Qi Dynasty, a teacher of students, and the chief academic officer of the Imperial College.

These two people, one civil and one military, can just balance the civil and military groups in the court. Now that he kneels down when he sees Chen Luo, it obviously means something.

The most likely possibility is that his plan yesterday was successful.

Chen Luo stood up and supported Uesugi Tora: "General Uesugi Tora, what are you doing? Please stand up quickly!"

Haitang Duoduo folded her arms and tilted her head to watch the scene.

She didn't say a word about Uesugi Tora's behavior, and her attention was entirely on Chen Luo.

Deep in her eyes, sometimes there was shame and sometimes there was a hint of excitement.

She was quite surprised by what she found this morning.

At the same time, she also understood why Chen Luo had always resisted her closeness.

After all this time, it turns out that Chen Luo is... a man!
No wonder she always had a strange feeling when she saw Chen Luo.

She originally thought that she would kill Chen Luo in anger.

But she didn't have such thoughts, she only felt excitement and shame.

Now she was thinking about how to confront Chen Luo. She really wanted to see Chen Luo’s reaction!

"Your Majesty, you came to the border in person, beat drums to cheer our troops on the battlefield, gave us advice, and helped us deliver letters."

"If it weren't for you, my lady, I'm afraid we wouldn't know how many soldiers would have been killed or injured in the attack last night."

Uesugi Tora once again cupped his hands and bowed slightly: "You are worthy of my respect. This respect is also for the thousands of soldiers in the city!"

Most people who join the army are sentimental and righteous people.

Uesugi Tiger is no exception.

As for Chen Luo, she could be said to be the first woman he had ever admired.

He dares to go to the battlefield, is brave and resourceful, and has a kingly spirit.

If Chen Luo was not a woman, he might have helped Chen Luo ascend the throne.

Of course, he also had his own ideas in mind, which was also the purpose of his coming here.

"General Uesugi Tora, you are too kind. Even without me, you can still defeat the Qing army."

"Come to think of it, I wanted to go find the general to discuss the matter of taking back Shanhai City, but I didn't expect the general to come here himself."

Chen Luo had a smile on his face and spoke in a very humble tone.

Some words are just for listening and don't be taken seriously.

This is the truth that a fancy sedan is carried by people.

"Shanhai City? Now that Li Chengru has been captured alive, only a few thousand of the 70,000-strong army have escaped. Shanhai City no longer has a large army to defend it."

"Give me three days, and I will be able to take back Shanhai City!"

Uesugi Tora was very confident about capturing Shanhai Castle.

It's not his fault. Now most of Qing's troops have been captured. Even if Qing sends troops to support, it is impossible for them to reach Shanhaiguan in a short time.

As long as he led his army to the border, he could capture Shanhaiguan in less than three days.

"General Shangshanhu looks very confident. I wonder how many days it will take for the general to capture the border town of Qing Kingdom?"

Chen Luo said meaningfully: "With the full cooperation of the Jinyiwei, General Shangshanhu can think about it carefully."

He is not the kind of person who likes to be bullied. Since others have attacked him, how can he not fight back?
The Qing Kingdom is asking for peace without fighting, so why did he come out here?
The situation is very good now. Sixty to seventy thousand elite troops of Qing Kingdom were captured, which means at least one third of the elite troops were lost.

Li Chengru was also captured, and the morale of the Qing soldiers was definitely not high.

In addition, the current Jinyiwei is enough to rival the Inspection Bureau of Qing Kingdom, so there will be no mistakes in the intelligence.

If you don't fight now, when do you want to fight?

Wait until Emperor Qing reacts? Or wait until they can no longer afford to support these 70,000 prisoners and are forced to release them?

With more than 70,000 people, you can imagine how terrible the amount of food and fodder consumed in a day is.

Even if we only give them one meal, that would be enough food for more than 30,000 people.

They can't afford to delay and must counterattack Qing Kingdom as soon as possible, otherwise it will be Northern Qi that collapses in the end!
