I am the stepmother of my son, and the little villain has changed into a little cotton-padded jacket

After a night of open-hearted conversation, Wen Shutang had completely revealed all his secrets, and there was no longer any barrier between them.

With Wen Shutang's help, Xiao Yizhuo's injuries got better day by day. In just three days, he was able to walk and even patrol the army in armor.

Although Wen Shutang did not approve of Xiao Yizhuo's lack of care for his body, he could not resist Xiao Yizhuo because he was really worried about the battle situation.

After that night's attack, Xiqi did not gain any benefit. Instead, they were defeated by the troops led by Xiao Yizhuo's commander.

The news of the failure of Xiqi's night attack spread quickly among the armies of Xiqi and Beichen. Everyone knew that there were no weak soldiers under General Xiao.

The last time they were able to seriously injure General Xiao was because of their advance ambush and sneak attack.

For a time, a depressed atmosphere emerged among the allied forces of Xiqi and Beichen, and morale became increasingly low, which made General Cui Hao of Xiqi very angry.

Cui Hao was immediately furious when he heard the report from his deputy general. He slammed the table hard, stood up and shouted angrily: "What a bunch of rubbish! No matter how powerful Xiao Yizhuo is, he has been injured by me. As long as we make another effort, we can completely take down Nansheng! Pass the order down, if anyone spreads rumors that lower morale again, kill them without mercy!"

The deputy general quickly nodded his head and said yes, then turned and left the tent.

Only Cui Hao was left alone in the tent, sulking.

Cui Hao looked outside the tent with a heavy gaze, the anger in his heart lingering.

He clenched his fists, and a determination flashed in his eyes.

He must defeat Xiao Yizhuo completely and completely replace Xiao Yizhuo's undefeated myth!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He suddenly stood up, lifted the curtain, walked to the army, and shouted, "Victory is just around the corner! Go tell the generals of Beichen that tomorrow we will launch the final battle. Success or failure will all depend on this battle!"

After hearing what he said, the soldiers looked at each other, but finally shouted loudly with high morale, which sounded very intimidating.

Seeing this, Cui Hao's anger dissipated a little.

Cui Hao's deputy general immediately went to General Beichen's tent and told him about the decisive battle tomorrow.

After hearing this, General Song Yuanjiang of Beichen just frowned slightly and then made a promise.

"Go back and tell your general that our Beichen Army is ready to follow your footsteps at any time, just waiting to give Xiao Yizhuo the strongest blow!"

The deputy general clasped his hands and said, "Yes!"

After saying this, he went back to report to Cui Hao.

Song Yuanjiang looked at the imperial edict that had just been delivered from the capital at full speed, a faint light flashed in his eyes, and then he carefully put the edict away.

The first imperial edict of the new emperor is really unbelievable.

Yes, as Beichen is the first empress since the founding of the country, her ideas are naturally different from usual ones.

Thinking of this, Song Yuanjiang felt more open-minded. He had been fighting for such a long time and was tired. Now he just wanted to go home to see his wife and young son.

Wen Shutang and Xiao Yizhuo were also not idle, and had been training soldiers intensively.

Wen Shutang told Xiao Yizhuo all the strategies he had learned in the legion, which surprised Xiao Yizhuo.

I was amazed at how comprehensive and clever this plan was.

After discussing military strategies, Wen Shutang pulled Xiao Yizhuo into the tent.

Looking at Wen Shutang's cautious look, Xiao Yizhuo felt a little confused and didn't know what she was going to do.

After Wen Shutang made sure that there was no one else around, he carefully took out a delicate small laser gun from his arms and handed it to Xiao Yizhuo.

Seeing what Wen Shutang was holding, Xiao Yizhuo's eyes flashed with surprise: "Madam, what is this?"

"Shh, this is something to save your life. Don't use it unless you have to. You can only use it in a critical moment." Wen Shutang said seriously.

Seeing Wen Shutang's serious expression, Xiao Yizhuo couldn't help but become serious.

Wen Shutang then demonstrated to Xiao Yizhuo how to use the laser gun.

After seeing a dark red light shooting out, a big hole was burned through the wooden chair in the distance, and an unpleasant burnt smell filled the air.

Seeing this, Xiao Yizhuo was horrified. He didn't expect that this strange-looking thing could be so powerful.

"this..."

"Don't let anyone else know about this." After the demonstration, Wen Shutang put the laser gun in Xiao Yizhuo's hand and instructed with a serious look.

After witnessing the power of this thing, Xiao Yizhuo naturally understood the deep meaning of Wen Shutang's words.

If such a powerful thing were stolen by someone with ulterior motives, it would cause a disaster.

Xiao Yizhuo carefully put the things away: "I understand."

Wen Shutang nodded and said nothing more. Xiao Yizhuo was smart and must have understood what she meant.

The long night passed quickly, and when a hint of paleness appeared in the sky, the Xiqi army was carefully approaching the tent where Xiao Yizhuo was.

Xiao Yizhuo had naturally been prepared for this. The two armies immediately engaged in battle. For a while, the battlefield was filled with shouts of killing, and the dust and sand kicked up by the horses' hooves were so huge that it was frightening to see.

As the commander-in-chief, Xiao Yizhuo led his troops to the front, killing decisively and ruthlessly. Countless Western Qi soldiers were defeated by him.

After only half an hour of fighting, the soldiers of Xiqi had already shown signs of defeat.

Seeing this, Cui Hao, who was covered in dust, immediately turned around and shouted at the deputy general: "Where are the people from Beichen? We have been fighting for so long, why haven't they come yet!"

The deputy general was so trembling that he dared not look up at Cui Hao's eyes. He said in a trembling voice: "Reporting to the general, General Song just sent someone to pass on a message saying that the new emperor of Beichen has ascended the throne and ordered all soldiers to return to the court immediately without delay. He also said that he wanted to be with Nansheng Yongxiu..."

Cui Hao was completely stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect things to turn out like this.

Although Beichen's army seemed slightly defeated, without Beichen's help, it would be impossible to defeat Xiao Yizhuo relying solely on his men!

Thinking of this, Cui Hao became so angry that he spat out a mouthful of black blood. He barely managed to stand steady by holding on to the silver spear.

At this time, in the imperial palace of Beichen Kingdom, above the main hall.

Taiping looked respectfully at the new emperor in a bright yellow dragon robe sitting on the high dragon throne in front of him, and bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the soldiers are already on their way back to the capital, and I have already sent a ceasefire letter to Nansheng."

Murong Heng, who was sitting on a high seat, glanced at Taiping calmly, nodded slightly and said, "That's great. I have just ascended the throne and the government is unstable. Now is not a good time to expand the territory. It will not be too late to prepare for war when the government is stable in the future."

"My Holy Emperor!" Taiping lowered his head and said loudly.

Murong Heng waved his hand, indicating that Taiping could go down.

After Taiping left, Murong Heng looked up into the distance, and Wen Shutang's face appeared in his mind.

She raised the corners of her lips and a smile appeared on her face.

This can be considered as repaying you for saving my life. From now on, we owe each other nothing.
