Everyone was surprised to see General Hu's appearance.

An impatient soldier shouted, "General Hu, you are too impatient. We haven't seen the power of this steel knife yet!"

The others also echoed, with unconvinced faces: "That's right, why should we give this steel knife to you? We want it too, why don't we have a fight to decide the winner!"

For a moment, everyone was clamoring, wanting to fight for the steel knife.

General Hu held the steel knife in his arms and shouted, "Let's compete, who is afraid of who?"

Seeing this, Xie Mochen said loudly: "Okay, I will be the referee to see who is the real hero and worthy of this steel knife!"

Everyone immediately became excited and started gearing up for a competition.

The atmosphere in the competition arena was tense and heated.

The soldiers displayed their best skills one after another, with swords flashing and shouts rising one after another.

Some soldiers are known for their strength, and every move they make is powerful and forceful.

Some win by skills, with flexible and varied moves.

The person holding the steel knife obviously has the advantage in weapons, and wherever the blade goes, it is frightening.

After each competition, everyone was sweating profusely.

But their eyes revealed the desire for the steel knife and the persistence for victory.

After a fierce competition, most of the generals in the army won in the end.

Dozens of soldiers were also given steel knives.

They all had bruised faces and noses, but they were all smiling foolishly.

Xie Mochen smiled and gave them the steel knife, saying: "This steel knife is a sharp weapon. I hope you can use it to defend your country and keep the area safe!"

Everyone responded in unison: "We will definitely live up to His Majesty's high expectations!"

Since then, the Northwest Army has become more convinced of the power of steel knives and their morale has become increasingly high.

Just when the morale of the Northwest Army was boosted, urgent news came from the border that the enemy country was gathering a large army to invade.

Xie Mochen looked solemn. What about the promised marriage and a hundred years of peace?

What is Mobei going to do?

He immediately summoned his generals to discuss countermeasures.

When Bai Qianqian learned about this, although she was worried, she still firmly supported Xie Mochen in defending his country.

Inside the tent, the generals expressed their opinions.

Some people advocated taking the initiative and striking hard at the enemy army while it was still unstable; others believed that they should hold the city firmly and wait for the enemy to tire themselves out.

Xie Mochen pondered for a moment and said, "The enemy is coming in full force, so we must not act rashly. But blindly defending is not a long-term solution."

In the end, Xie Mochen decided to send spies deep into the enemy camp to find out the enemy's strengths and weaknesses before making a decision.

A few days later, the spies reported back that although the enemy had a large number of troops this time, their food and fodder supplies were insufficient.

When Xie Mochen heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"This is our chance." He immediately gave the order and sent out an elite force to attack the enemy's food supplies.

In the cover of night, the team rushed towards the enemy's granary like ghosts and successfully burned a large amount of food and grass.

The enemy army was in chaos, and Xie Mochen took the opportunity to lead the Northwest Army out of the city to meet the enemy.

On the battlefield, steel knives were wielding and shouts of killing were deafening.

The soldiers of the Northwest Army fought bravely against the enemy with high morale and excellent equipment.

After a fierce battle, the enemy was defeated and fled.

The Northwest Army won a great victory and the people of Guanzhou cheered.

However, Xie Mochen knew very well that the enemy country would not give up.

He began to strengthen the city's defenses, train soldiers, and prepare for the next battle.

Every morning, loud trumpets sounded in the Northwest Army’s camp.

The soldiers quickly assembled and began intensive and rigorous training.

On the training ground, soldiers wearing heavy armor and running with heavy loads, their clothes were soaked with sweat, but no one complained of being tired.

Some soldiers fell down due to exhaustion, but quickly got up and continued to keep up with the team.

During archery training, the soldiers concentrate fully, pull the bowstrings to their full potential, and strive to ensure that every arrow hits the target accurately.

The coach at the side strictly corrected the soldiers' postures and ways of exerting force, and shouted at them loudly if there was any deviation.

The close combat training is even more intense, with two people working in groups, holding steel knives and sparring with each other.

Their moves were fierce and fierce, and every collision made a clanging sound.

Xie Mochen personally supervised the battle and gave instructions from time to time, praising soldiers who performed well and punishing those who were lazy.

During the tactical drills, soldiers were arranged in different formations and quickly changed formations to simulate various battlefield situations.

They cooperated with each other and had a tacit understanding, demonstrating a high level of teamwork ability.

After a period of intensive training, the overall quality of the Northwest Army has improved significantly.

The soldiers were all in high spirits and ready to fight, waiting for the enemy to attack again and give them a head-on blow.

At this time, Chen Wang received news from Mobei.

The news was brought back by Mo Qi.

The moment he saw the note, Xie Mochen's face turned dark.

Just called him an idiot.

Bai Qianqian looked at the man in front of her with surprise, "My Lord, what happened?"

Before Xie Mochen could explain to her, a carrier pigeon flew in.

And it stopped directly on Bai Qianqian's arm.

Bai Qianqian reached out and took the note from the bamboo tube of the carrier pigeon.

He only took a glance and his expression looked extremely ugly.

There was only one sentence on the note: The Emperor of Mobei is seriously ill, the Second Prince is incarcerated, and the Crown Prince is regent.

After a long while, Bai Qianqian handed the note in her hand over.

Xie Mochen took a look, waved his hand, and handed the note in his hand forward.

Looking at the same message on the note.

Bai Qianqian fell silent immediately.

After a long while, she took a deep breath and said seriously, "Your Majesty, we have to go to Mobei and rescue the Emperor of Mobei."

This is a good emperor who cares about the people.

Otherwise, the two countries would not be able to maintain peace through marriage.

But now the Emperor of Mobei is seriously ill and the Crown Prince is acting as regent, which has broken the peace between the two countries.

If the Prince of Mobei were allowed to succeed to the throne, who knows how many people would die and how much blood would be shed.

Xie Mochen tapped his fingers on the table.

It took a long while before he hummed.

"Bring my eldest sister with you. If she can't save the Emperor of Mobei, then there is no hope for the other doctors."

Bai Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief.

That's what she planned too.

"We can only go secretly, not openly." Xie Mochen narrowed his eyes and made arrangements, "The Crown Prince of Mobei is currently supervising the country, and he will definitely be on high alert to prevent outsiders from entering the city of Mobei."

Bai Qianqian nodded.

Regarding this matter, she naturally believed the prince.

Xie Mochen started writing the letter directly.

With the secret guards here, the emperor will know the news in a few days.

Of course he wrote two letters in total.

One is to the Emperor.

One letter was to the Sixth Prince.

Two letters, although the stories are similar.

But there is a difference.

Watching the carrier pigeon fly away, a faint light flashed in Xie Mochen's deep eyes.

Bei Qianye, ah Bei Qianye.

This time, you owe me a big favor.

A few days later, in the imperial palace in Beijing.

At the morning court, after reading Xie Mochen's letter, the emperor's face turned gloomy. He slammed the letter on the dragon table, furious.

"How dare you, Mobei, be so treacherous!" The emperor's voice echoed in the court, and all the ministers were silent.

"I have always valued peace, but I didn't expect them to take advantage of the chaos to cause trouble!" The emperor's eyes widened with anger, and he glanced at the ministers in his palace.

The ministers knelt down one after another and said in unison: "Your Majesty, calm down!"
