If you're made a fake emperor, why did you change the country's name?

Inside the pavilion.

A flamboyant young man, dressed in a wolfskin coat and holding a white jade fan, leaned against the railing, gazing into the distance.

Without a doubt, this person is Xiaoyue Jinquan.

A wolf general strode over and handed over a letter.

"Zilang, the Seven Wolves' military intelligence has arrived."

Xiaoyue Jinquan took the letter, unfolded it, read it, and raised an eyebrow slightly.

Has this news been confirmed?

The general nodded emphatically. "Confirmed! It was reported simultaneously from both the Five Wolves and Seven Wolves armies. I have already verified it; there is absolutely no mistake."

The Seven Wolves' army of 30,000 men suffered a crushing defeat!

The Great Liang possesses a new type of weapon that can fire head-sized black iron balls at extremely high speeds. These balls explode upon impact, and are virtually impossible for anyone other than a Grandmaster-level expert to withstand.

Xiaoyue Jin Quan frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.

"If the Great Liang really has such a divine weapon, why didn't it use it to deal with the surrounding countries sooner?"

"How could we possibly drive them all the way to the capital?"

Then, he chuckled and gently waved his jade fan.

"It seems that the Emperor of Liang is truly as stupid as a dumb ox."

To avoid harming himself, he kept the weapon hidden until he was beaten to a pulp before taking it out.

Such a divine artifact should rightfully belong to my Wolf Kingdom!

Upon hearing this, the general tentatively asked, "Zilang, with such powerful weapons in Daliang, should we order the tribes to gather more troops to attack?"

Snapped!

Xiaoyue Jinquan tapped him hard on the head with his fan.

"Fool! The Wolf Lord himself ordered a three-pronged encirclement. Are you trying to disobey the imperial decree?"

"Your subordinate dares not!" The general quickly lowered his head.

"Besides," Xiaoyue Jinquan put away his fan and tapped his palm lightly, "with that kind of weapon, even if another 100,000 troops come, it will only increase casualties."

He squinted and fell into deep thought.

"Report! Urgent report from the Wolf Lord!"

Just then, a messenger suddenly came running from a distance.

The soldier knelt on the ground, holding the letter aloft.

"The Prince of Zhennan of Daliang has made unusual moves, and seems poised to return to reinforce the capital!"

Xiaoyue Jinquan's face darkened, and he suddenly stood up straight.

"What's going on? Wasn't it said that as long as we didn't touch the Emperor of Liang, the Prince of Zhennan would have no chance of coming back to help this time?"

"Your subordinate is unaware, but the Wolf Lord has ordered his two sons to immediately abandon Twin Peaks City and march at full speed to the capital to rejoin the main force!"

Xiaoyue Jinquan's expression was uncertain as he paced back and forth in the pavilion, tapping his palm with the jade fan in his hand.

After a long while, he suddenly stopped.

"Pass on my order: the army shall march immediately! Target: the capital of Great Liang!"

"Yes!" The general accepted the order and left.

……

Inside the Tianji Pavilion.

Zhao Yu looked at everything happening in the mirror, and the corners of his mouth slowly turned up.

pressure!!!

The crisis for Zhao Ding and Wang Zhang has now been resolved.

I believe it won't be long before the Imperial Guards will be able to bring Wang and Zhang back safely.

but……

Now, all the pressure is on me.

Based on the distance and marching speed, the army of the Five Wolves Howling at the Moon and the Golden Blade should have already arrived outside the imperial city.

We must find a way to force him to make a move, otherwise, once Erzi Langxiaoyue and Jin Quan arrive, the two armies will merge, resulting in too many people.

The red-coated cannons could hold off 30,000, and perhaps even 60,000, but if 90,000 troops arrived at once, it would be truly difficult.

After all, those Grandmasters in the army are no pushovers.

Zhao Yu composed himself and spoke calmly.

"Next up, Five Wolves."

As soon as he finished speaking, the image on the Heavenly Mirror began to fluctuate again...

……

Beside Yuquan Lake, beside the continuous military fortresses.

A disciplined and orderly wolf army slowly came to a stop and began to set up camp.

Xiaoyue Jindao rode a giant, jet-black horse, accompanied by several trusted men, and headed straight for the gate of the Seven Sons Wolf Xiaoyue Jinshang's military camp.

At the entrance of the stockade, several soldiers on guard turned pale upon seeing the newcomers and immediately knelt down to pay their respects.

"Greetings, Lord Five Wolves!"

"Make that piece of trash, Xiaoyue Jinshang, come out and pay his respects to me!"

Xiaoyue Jindao didn't even glance at him, and his tone was commanding.

Upon hearing this tone, the soldiers hesitated for a moment.

But unexpectedly, the next moment...

Whoosh!

Snapped!

With a single lash of the whip, a soldier was whipped in two!

Fresh blood and internal organs were spilled all over the ground.

The remaining soldier was so frightened that he scrambled into the military camp to report.

Before long, Xiaoyue Jinshang led Tuoba Hu and the others out at a jog.

When he saw the mutilated corpse at the entrance of the village, his face instantly turned red.

"Howling Moon Golden Blade! What are you doing?!"

"Um?"

With a soft "hmm," Xiaoyue Jindao unleashed his inner force, and a powerful pressure instantly enveloped him.

He asked in a deep voice, "You can't even call me Fifth Brother anymore?"

Xiaoyue Jinshang's face turned pale instantly under the pressure of this aura, but he still gritted his teeth.

Tuoba Hu, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward to help him out and whispered words of advice in his ear.

"Zilang, the bigger picture is what matters! The bigger picture is what matters!"

Xiaoyue Jinshang's chest heaved violently, but he finally suppressed his anger and squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth.

"Fifth Brother... what's wrong? Speak quickly."

"Oh."

Xiaoyue Jindao smiled smugly, his eyes full of contempt.

"Have your men assemble immediately and wait at the gate of my stronghold, where I will reorganize them."

"What?!"

Xiaoyue Jinshang instantly bristled, roaring angrily, "This is my tribe! What right do you have to take it away?!"

Xiaoyue Golden Blade sneered and mocked:

"Just because you're a piece of trash! You lost 13,000 Wolf Kingdom soldiers in one battle!"

"It would be a waste to hand over the Wolf Kingdom's soldiers to you!"

"Impossible!" Xiaoyue Jinshang refused without even thinking.

Xiaoyue Jindao narrowed his eyes, his inner strength surging once more, and he spoke in a deep voice:

"I'm giving you an order, not discussing it with you."

"you!"

Xiaoyue Jin Shang was so angry that he trembled all over, but fortunately, Tuoba Hu's internal energy helped him this time, so he didn't embarrass himself.

Tuoba Huye pulled him back again, anxiously whispering, "Zilang! The bigger picture is more important! We don't need to fight anymore, just give it to Wuzilang."

Xiaoyue Jinshang's chest heaved violently as he stared intently at the Xiaoyue Golden Blade on horseback.

Finally, he abruptly flicked his sleeve, turned and left without a word.

Upon seeing this, Tuoba Hu quickly bowed to Xiaoyue Golden Blade.

"Five Wolves, apart from the generals of my Tuoba clan, please make your own way with the rest of your troops."

After saying that, he quickly followed Xiaoyue Jinshang.

Xiaoyue Jindao watched their departing figures and sneered disdainfully.

"His useless subordinates are a perfect match for him; they're both useless!"

"Guards, gather all of my good seventh brother's men!"

……

Inside the Tianji Pavilion.

Zhao Yu took in all of this, a smile playing on his lips.

An unexpected bonus!

I never expected that Xiaoyue Jindao would be the kind of person who only knows how to use force to suppress others when faced with a problem.

Such a person wouldn't be considered arrogant; he simply believes in the supremacy of force.

The stronger he is, the more arrogant he becomes.

Zhao Yu's lips curled up, and he began to think.

It's good to believe in the supremacy of force.

If someone believes in the supremacy of force, then that proves they can be exploited.

It seems he needs to prepare well for the upcoming battle.

"Next."

The mirror surface began to ripple again.
