The General's Daughter Doesn't Want to Get Married!-Chapter 160: Fire!

"I hope so."

"Sigh, it couldn’t be helped. My Lord loves the Lady as much as she loves him. That’s why he did this to prevent the Lady from acting up."

"The Lady wouldn’t stay here obediently if she were to know what happened to My Lord."

"I just hope that My Lord will make a quick recovery."

"Let the lovers calm their own storm of quarrel. Stay away from them as much as possible."

The crowd’s atmosphere turned heavy the moment Yun Shu’s name was mentioned, since it was something that became a sensitive issue among them now.

For those worn out soldiers, Yun Shu was their lifeline.

Just the thought of something happening to that person made their heart tremble with fear and anxiety. Truly, one of the reasons why the Yun family members were held in high regard was because of their great benevolence and act for their people.

The Yun family always acted to help the commoner and noble, for them both categories of people were equally important. And the rules were strictly followed through generations, making the family’s reputation grow leaps and bounds.

Not only they had a powerful connection with the Royal family for being the close relative’s of the Emperor, but they has been producing excellent talent, heirs, and even Great leaders who possessed extraordinary power and abilities.

As they reached a conclusion, the soldiers diverted to their own works. The drill hall turned dead silent once again.

Originally, everyone here knew of Yun Shu’s situation who got fatally injured the day before and was in a critical condition. But upon Chi Yan’s order, who was in charge of this place right now, they concealed the information from reaching Bai Yunxian’s ears.

Since the little lord would try to do something dangerous, Zhu Zhengting’s man and Bai Yunxian’s own squad also concealed the predicament throughly from him.

But at that time, no one was able to predict what was going to happen.

***

"Take formation!"

"Today’s victory will be ours!"

The Leaders at the forefront shouted as they encouraged the soldiers, Yun Shu quietly swept her eyes on the enemy battlefront with keen eyes.

Something was bothering her, especially after the thing happened a little ago with the Crown Prince, he wasn’t able to recall what he did at that night.

Though it was suspicious, Yun Shu could tell that he was telling the truth about having no recollection from that night. So she didn’t pursue the matter too much since it was something troublesome for her as well.

What’s more suspicious was that the enemy soldiers from the other side seemed to be cheerful and happy for some reason, did they think their scheme worked well? And that she didn’t find out that the Left Commander collided with them and tried to seize important information out of my tent that day, taking the bait from the chaos?

Yun Shu smirked as she glanced towards Yun Si, he nodded his head towards Yun Shu in return.

On her left side was Zhu Zhengting, he also shared the same signal with their eyes as Yun Shu raised her right hand.

"What is he doing?" The Enemy General squinted his eyes when he saw Yun Shu raise her hand, as if she was asking for a surrender, her eyes seemed worn out by something, as if she had been drained off of all her energy... as if she was scared of something.

’Did our method really work? Are we gonna win this battle even without a fight?’ The General widened his eyes in shock.

After all, among those puny pinkies, the only remarkable man who brought victory for the Yun Empire was none other than Yun Shu, the battle strategist and First General of the Empire.

There hasn’t been one war where he came down and returned without crushing his enemies to the ground.

These days, their troops were also having a hard time analyzing this man’s fearsome battle strategies.

He always stood at the front, declaring the soldiers to go up and he would back down. At first, they thought he went behind the soldiers to save himself, but that wasn’t the case at all.

Instead, he gave a huge back up to his soldiers from behind, so that the soldiers would raise their spirits up and fight for their life.

No matter what he did, it would end up boosting the army’s morale, and they would fight fiercely till the end.

During this long one month of battle, the casualties were very few in there soldiers, since they got a huge back up from the main leaders, what’s more was that they had many experts on Yun Shu’s side covering for the soldiers, and the Martial Artists and mercenaries they hired couldn’t even compare to Yun Shu’s team.

And that’s when they came up with an idea to mess with them from the dark. Many of the officials didn’t like Yun Shu’s impudent behavior, there must be some dissatisfaction within the army as well.

The soldiers would in no way take the bribe, they wouldn’t come of help to them. Instead, they got information about the higher ups within the fields, to set the trap for Yun Shu.

’Looks like this method really worked. We will need to give a generous prize to that Demonic cultivator guy who came up with such a great idea!’ The Commander was thinking as he laughed out happily, unaware of the arrow that shot through his heart the next second, and the body fell down from the horse silently like a dry leaves of a tree.

"Commander?"

The soldier standing behind him was stunned as he stopped laughing, trembling like a lamb standing in front of its prey, he looked up slowly, only to gasp in shock as he locked eyes with a pair of cold, emotionless eyes.

Yun Shu’s hand was still hanging in the air, except that her fingers now pointed towards the enemy soldiers, gesturing a signal.

"Fire!"
