Chapter 178 Marriage with the Princess 10

Shen Quan quickly brought his troops to the border of Wuling.

Yunyan had already brought the soldiers to the border stone village garrison.

At this moment, she was standing on the observation deck, looking at the huge army in the distance through a special telescope.

Shen Quan hasn't changed much, but his temperament has become more mature. It seems that he has been doing well following Murong Yi in the past few years.

Before he approached the Wuling border, he was warned by the soldiers guarding the border.

"Who are the troops ahead? This is our Xia territory. Please leave immediately, otherwise we will attack you."

Shen Quan was somewhat puzzled that such a small country as Wuling dared to establish itself as a country.

His tone was unkind.

"You daring rebels, this is our Daqian territory, why don't you just surrender?"

"I am General Shen Quan of Zhenbei. You have three days to surrender. Otherwise, my cavalry will definitely flatten the entire Wuling."

Yunyan has come to the front at this moment. She is wearing a mask, looking mysterious and noble.

"Shen Quan? You are so arrogant. If you are not afraid of death, then just bring these useless people with you."

Shen Quan felt that this woman in the strange military uniform looked very familiar, but he just couldn't remember where she was.

"Who are you? How dare you speak so arrogantly? I will capture you alive today."

Shi Fang, as the deputy general, spoke immediately.

"Don't be rude, boy. This is the leader of my Xia country. How dare you speak to her like this?"

Shen Quan didn't expect that this was the rebel leader, and he had a disdainful smile on his face.

"A weak woman is actually your leader. It seems that you, a bunch of rebels, are nothing more than this. You actually let a woman take over your heads."

Shi Fang was furious.

"Stop talking nonsense, leader. I'm going to cut him into pieces."

Shi Fang asked Yunyan for her opinion, and Yunyan shook her head.

"Shi Fang, don't be impulsive. Bring the big guy up."

Shi Fang took the order, with a look of pride in his eyes.

"Yes!"

Soon, Yunyan’s newly developed cannon was pushed out.

Shen Quan looked at the strange-shaped lump of iron with confusion in his eyes.

"Witch, what kind of monster are you? I advise you to surrender as soon as possible to avoid physical pain."

Yunyan sneered.

"General Shen, you have come all the way to my country Xia. This is the gift I prepared for you."

Yunyan's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"fire!"

Before Shen Quan could react, he saw a huge object flying towards his army.

"defense!"

His soldiers raised their shields, thinking that this would protect them from the attack.

Unexpectedly, this thing was so powerful that it directly blew away hundreds of soldiers.

A bloody mist filled the air, and body parts of varying sizes were scattered everywhere.

Shen Quan was also blown far away. His eyes were filled with fear and disbelief, and his eyes were full of red bloodshot.

An instinct of impending death made him give the order immediately.

"Retreat. Quick, retreat."

Yunyan looked at Shen Quan who only suffered minor skin injuries, and complained in her heart: The protagonist's halo is too big. A lot of people were killed in the explosion, and he was the only one who suffered minor skin injuries.

Shi Fang immediately said to Yun Yan: "Leader, let's seize the opportunity to pursue the enemy."

Yunyan called Shifang to the side and whispered a few words to him.

Shi Fang took the order and set off with a team of people.

Yunyan also said a few words in Shiyue's ear, and she quickly led the army to the other side.

Shen Quan fled in panic, with Shi Fang chasing him closely.

He wanted to escape to another larger city, but found an ambush on the road.

Shi Yue and his men defeated him step by step. Shen Quan had no choice but to retreat to a smaller city.

He was in a terrible state at this moment, with his arm hit by something unknown.

He could feel that the iron lump was still inside his arm, so his subordinates quickly called a doctor.

It was the first time the doctor had seen such a wound, and it took him several hours just to remove the bullet.

Shen Quan's face turned pale from the pain, and he almost thought he was going to die. Fortunately, the bullet was finally taken out.

Shen Quan was in a coma for three days. When he woke up again, his complexion finally looked a little better.

The subordinate Chen Wu hurried in to report the situation.

"General, you finally woke up. You were in a coma for three days. Fortunately, Xia Kingdom did not attack Pingyang City."

Shen Quan asked: "What are the casualties among the soldiers?"

Chen Wu was speechless for a moment and lowered his head.

Shen Quan had a bad feeling and his voice became angry.

"say!"

Chen Wu said tremblingly: "General, our army has suffered heavy losses. Currently, less than half of them are left, and most of them are injured."

Shen Quan punched the table angrily, and accidentally pulled the wound.

"Hiss!" He grimaced in pain.

"Have you found out what weapon that witch used?"

Chen Wu replied: "General, my men have already investigated."

"That big iron lump is called a cannon. It seems to have been secretly developed by Xia Country and is not available on the market. What they have in their hands is called a gun. It is not the long gun we use, but a shooting weapon similar to a bow and arrow."

Shen Quan fell silent for a moment.

He was careless, thinking that a mere Wuling rebel was not worth mentioning. He didn't expect that he would end up losing more than he gained.

After a long while, Shen Quan spoke again.

"Send someone to report to His Majesty and ask the court to send troops for support. Then contact the Fengzhou government and ask them to quickly send troops to join forces with me."

"Yes!"

Chen Wu went down.

Shen Quan's brows were twisted into a frown. He had led troops in battles for so many years, but this was the first time he encountered such a difficult situation.

And that witch looks really familiar, but unfortunately I can't recognize her because she is wearing a mask.

In less than a day, Chen Wu replied.

"General, Fengzhou has replied to us. Please go to Fengzhou to recuperate and discuss with the governor of Fengzhou how to deal with the rebels."

Shen Quan nodded.

"Leave immediately."

Everything went smoothly until the moment they entered Fengzhou City, when Shen Quan realized something was wrong.

The city gates were suddenly closed, and many people appeared around with guns pointed at them.

Shen Quan looked at the clouds and smoke that suddenly appeared on the city wall and felt something was wrong.

He had fallen into a trap. Fengzhou had actually been taken over by Yunyan a long time ago, and he hadn't received any news at all.

Shen Quan looked at Yun Yan with a very unfriendly look.

"You are such a sinister and cunning witch, you actually use conspiracy and trickery. What kind of hero are you?"

Yunyan had a mocking smile on her face.

"Shen Quan, you have been studying the art of war since you were young. Haven't you heard that all is fair in war?"

"You are just not as skilled as others. You fell into my trap and broke my defense."

Shen Quan didn't understand what "breaking the defense" meant, but it was definitely not a good word.

He glared angrily.

"What's your skill in taking advantage of someone's misfortune? I am the famous General Zhenbei. If our forces were equal, you would have been killed by my sword long ago."

Yunyan was not surprised at his arrogance.

"Shen Quan, I don't want to waste my time talking to you. Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving."
