Li Yu brought Yan Niang to the hiding place. Yan Niang looked at Li Yu and smiled. “Madam snatched the Qi soldier’s horse, right? No wonder Madam came so quickly.”

“I met this Qi soldier not long after I left the city.” Li Yu led the horse out of the forest. When the two of them left the forest, they suddenly heard an earth-shattering bang. They turned around and saw a towering fire. The soaring fire illuminated the Tian Family Village like it was daytime.

Yan Niang looked at the fire and said to Li Yu, “The kerosene stored by the Qi soldiers has probably ignited.”

“Ignore it. Let’s leave quickly.” Li Yu got on the horse and rode with Yan Niang.

The Qi soldiers who had fled sat on the ground and watched helplessly as the rations were burned.

A chiliarch got up from the ground. “Quick, let’s go report to the general.”

Three Qi soldiers also got up from the ground. They turned to the stable outside the camp gate and led the horses toward Yunzhou.

Li Yu and Yan Niang rode for a while. Seeing that the horse was tired, she dismounted and continued walking. Yan Niang glanced at Li Yu. “Madam, where did the fireproof water vats go? After lighting the fire, I was still worried that the fire would be extinguished. Later, I thought about how I didn’t see those large water vats when I started the fire.”

“Were there vats?” Li Yu glanced at Yan Niang and spouted nonsense in all seriousness. “I didn’t see any vat when I poured the kerosene.”

“Yes, we have to check every day for water. We only checked at night.’

As Yan Niang spoke, she suddenly lay on the ground and listened. She looked up and said to Li Yu, “Madam, horses are coming. Should we snatch them?”

“Yes,” Li Yu said briefly and forcefully as she led the horse horizontally in the middle of the road.

“Madam, look at me.” Yan Niang took out a slender rope from her pocket and unrolled it. She placed it in Li Yu’s hand and grabbed one end herself. She turned around and ran. “Madam, let’s tie one end each to a tree by the roadside.”

“Alright.” Li Yu patted the horse and ran over to tie the thin rope of unknown material. She hid by the roadside and saw four black shadows rushing over. She counted in her heart. “One, two, three.”

“Ah, ah.” The person on the horse fell down and the horse neighed. Li Yu and Yan Niang jumped out and killed a few people. They grabbed the reins and restrained the horse. They got on the horse and galloped away.

Outside Yunzhou City, the Qi soldiers suddenly launched a violent attack. The crossbowmen shot tens of thousands of arrows that rained at the city wall. The soldiers waved their spears and shot down the rockets. The crossbowmen also began to fight back. The clothes of the soldiers on the city wall were also set on fire after being shot. They let out miserable screams. Some rockets even flew into the inner city and caused a fire. The bailiffs on patrol hurriedly organized people to extinguish the fire.

When Ji Xiang and Ruyi were about to reach the city wall with a small bamboo basket filled with grain chaff on each of their backs, they hurriedly took off the bamboo basket and hung it around their necks. They protected the bamboo basket and went up the city wall. They saw rockets with sparks everywhere on the city wall. The arrows of the Qi army were still flying toward the city wall. The soldiers on the city wall were fighting back with all their might. The ground was filled with dead and injured soldiers. The commoners were busy carrying the injured soldiers down.

The two of them hid under the chopping hole and stuck their heads out to see the Qi soldiers stepping on the ladder and climbing endlessly up the city wall.

Below them stood a dense group of Qi infantry. Ruyi nodded at Ji Xiang and the two of them began to split up. They hid in the dark and lit the fuse to throw the mud bombs at the Qi soldiers below the city. Boom, boom, boom. Explosions kept sounding. The Qi soldiers below the city were blown away in batches. The living were terrified and ran. The Qi generals could not stop the fleeing soldiers.

When Ouyang Xiong heard the explosion, he knew that the opportunity had come. He instructed the gatekeepers to open the city gate and a large group of cavalry rushed out of the city gate. The cavalry in front held crossbows and aimed at the Qi soldiers. The cavalry behind raised their spears and machetes to stab the defeated Qi soldiers.

A large number of Qi cavalrymen ran out of the camp to help the defeated infantrymen. Looking at the cavalrymen who were at least twice their size, Ouyang Xiong, who was on the city wall, immediately ordered the soldiers to retreat in order to preserve the strength of the cavalrymen. The cavalrymen turned their horses around and ran wildly. The Qi cavalrymen shot at the cavalrymen with crossbows. The archers on the city wall drew their bows and shot arrows to help the cavalrymen. The Qi cavalrymen and horses in front were shot. Ji Xiang and Ruyi threw the last can of earth bombs in the frame at the Qi cavalrymen as they slipped down the city wall. With a bang, the Qi cavalrymen fell on their horses. The cavalrymen did not dare to continue fighting and turned their horses to escape toward the camp.

In this battle, the Great Yong soldiers defeated the Qi army with the secret help of Ji Xiang and Ruyi. Deputy General Shen sighed and said to Ouyang Xiong, “General Ouyang, it seems that there must be a hidden expert in our army who came to help. Otherwise, why would we be saved in times of danger? I wonder what will happen without the Heaven Shaking Thunder tonight?”

Ouyang Xiong looked at the casualties on the city wall and said, “Fortunately, they’re friends and not enemies. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. God bless Great Yong!”

In General Qi’s tent, Yang Huaiyi was scolded by Crown Prince Qi, who was sitting at the head of the table. Yang Huaiyi thought to himself that with such a crown prince in Great Qi, the country would have no hopes of dominating the world. Now that even the Heavenly Dao is not on Great Qi’s side, he felt that Great Qi could only retreat after losing.

Li Yu and Yan Niang had five military horses to change rides. When the two of them came out of Xingfu Town at midnight, they went up a mountain path and walked through the forest to avoid the Qi military camp at the Yang Village. Standing on the mountain, they did not see the two armies fighting. Yan Niang muttered softly, “Madam, what do you think happened? Did the two sides stop fighting?”

“I’m not sure either. We’ll know when we return to the city.” When the two of them arrived at the south city gate, Li Yu waved at the city wall. When the guards waiting at the city wall saw Li Yu and Yan Niang putting down the basket, Li Yu looked at the horses behind her and felt that it was a pity to abandon such military horses, so she tied the reins to a big rock.

When they reached the top of the city wall, she pointed at the horses below the city wall and said to the guards above, “Little brother, look, there are five military horses below. It’s a pity to let them go like this. Put some grass down to feed them. When it rains, bring them into the city.”

The guard looked at the horses at the foot of the city wall and looked a little troubled. “Madam, sending some fodder is a small matter. I have to report to the higher-ups for approval before I can open the city gate and lead the horses in.” The guard thought that his higher-ups were all respectful to this madam and looked a little uneasy after saying that.

“Alright, you can go after your superior agrees!” Li Yu replied readily.

The guard cupped his hands happily. “Thank you for your understanding,

Madam.”

Li Yu waved her hand and went down the city wall with Yan Niang. She suddenly remembered that there was still a letter in her space. She said to Yan Niang, “Follow me to the government office later. I found a letter and a waist token on that cavalryman- I don’t know what it says. hilt I’ll give it to you to bring back to your Head Shopkeeper.”

“Yes, Madam. It’s so satisfying to work with you. When I retire in the future, take me in! I’ll make food and help you protect Young Master.” Yan Niang smiled at Li Yu.

Li Yu looked at her straightforward appearance and smiled. “Sure! As long as you’re willing to come, I’ll definitely welcome you..”
