The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

Pei Wugou was very satisfied with this surging and magnificent appearance.

The soldiers in Pukou City still had high morale.

Originally, he could have easily defeated Ren Tianye on his own, but now that these soldiers are so effective, his confidence in defeating Ren Tianye has soared even higher.

Then he gave another military order, telling everyone to go back and rest. The next morning, he opened the city gates wide and went to fight Ren Tianye's men.

The crowd shouted, and everyone responded.

However, I need to go back to the barracks to rest...

not a single one!

What a great opportunity to make connections! Those who need to collude with the city's defenses should do so, and those who need to compete for the city's defense slots should compete for them.

The ghost is sleeping!

So, after all that fuss, dawn broke.

Upon receiving Pei Wugou's order, the entire army formed ranks, and the city gates were opened wide.

Leave the city...to meet the enemy!

Everyone, with bloodshot eyes, walked out with great energy!

When Wu Xingzhou, who was outside the city, heard the soldiers report that the city gates were wide open, his first reaction was that they were still asleep!

Since the last battle with Zhou Xiong at the gates of Pukou City, in which Zhou Xiong shot and killed his wife Wanqing, and he fled in disarray, Pukou City has been kept closed.

He wanted to atone for his mistakes by challenging and hurling insults at the city gates every day!

One reason was to provoke Zhou Xiong into opening the city gates.

On the one hand, it was to buy Zhang Shi time and make things easier for him.

But he's been leading people to shout and curse for so many days!

The insults directed at Zhou Xiong have escalated from a matter of personal dignity to a matter involving his entire family!

Zhou Xiong, that coward, could at most retaliate with cannon fire. The city gates of Pukou City remained completely still, ridiculously tightly closed!

just now……

But it opened inexplicably?

If this isn't a dream, then what is it?

"General Wu, it's really open now. Someone's come out and's provoking us from the front lines."

The personal guards reported.

Wu Xingzhou quickly pinched himself, letting out a painful "ow," but he was full of energy and rushed out in a flash.

That's rare!

This is incredibly rare!

This is so rare, you can't miss it!

He mounted his horse, picked up his halberd, and charged straight ahead.

From afar, they could see the person who was provoking them on the front lines.

The first thing I saw was a sentence that I couldn't help but blurt out.

"Brother, are you here to perform in a play?"

It's no wonder Wu Xingzhou asked this question, it's just that...

The person in front of me is so over-the-top!

She was dressed... even cleaner than the actors on stage!

It's ridiculously clean!

They didn't look like they were going to war; they looked like they were going to perform on stage, drawing cheers and jubilation from countless spectators.

"presumptuous!"

Pei Wugou brandished his spear, a hint of anger flashing across his face: "How dare you mock me? I think... you have a death wish!"

Who are you?

"State your name!"

"This lord will not kill nameless nobodies under his spear!"

When Pei Wugou shouted this, Wu Xingzhou sensed something different. The main thing was the long spear in Pei Wugou's hand, which was as thick as a bowl and looked quite heavy.

Normally, someone who can wield such a spear must possess astonishing strength, if not exceptional martial arts skills.

"Could he be a natural-born strongman?"

Thinking this through, Wu Xingzhou did not act rashly. Instead, he turned to his attendant and told him to immediately report the situation to Ren Tianye.

In any case, the fact that the city gates of Pukou City have finally been opened is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we must let the Duke know about it and make up his mind.

His hesitation and delay made the people behind Pei Wugou very anxious.

Go ahead and fight, what are you afraid of?

You go and entangle Pei Wugou, and with just a glance from us, the city gate will close, and we'll form an array to surround Pei Wugou.

Wouldn't Pei Wugou be captured?

That's how you get credit, isn't it?

Didn't we just take Pukou City?

With such an incredible achievement right in front of you, what are you still hesitating for!

Fortunately, Wu Xingzhou did not hesitate for long. After sending someone to inform the Duke, he brandished his halberd and said coldly, "Grandpa Wu Xingzhou is the vanguard under the Duke."

"Opera singer, today you've fallen into your grandfather's hands."

"You're just unlucky!"

Wu Xingzhou stirred up the murderous intent in his chest, spurred his warhorse, and shot off like an arrow.

We must use absolute strength to deliver a crushing blow to this opera singer.

To avenge him for being tricked by Zhou Xiong before!

We must achieve great things and wash away our past grievances!

"Well done!"

Pei Wugou remained calm and fearless.

When Wu Xingzhou's halberd came close, he simply raised the spear in his hand steadily.

"Clang!"

A loud bang, sparks flying everywhere!

The sound of weapons clashing shook the surrounding area.

The shock made everyone's teeth ache.

In an instant, one could sense just how immense power was used in that attack.

Many people even cheered for Wu Xingzhou in their hearts, thinking that he was indeed a great general under the Duke, and his martial prowess was truly formidable!

pity……

Before the cheers even appeared on their faces, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

"hiss!"

Wu Xingzhou also gasped, his heart filled with fear.

"How can this opera singer be so strong?"

He used all his strength in that strike.

An ordinary military general would have been knocked off his horse by that one strike, groaning in pain.

However, if the enemy general in front of him can block this attack, the rebound force will be just as great.

The opera singer in front of us is not only blocking the way.

He handled the situation with ease, causing Wu Xingzhou's tiger's mouth to burst open, blood gushing out, and his own power to be instantly diminished.

At that very moment, Pei Wugou's spear moved like a dragon, its speed and angle changing rapidly. With a single thrust, he pierced Wu Xingzhou's armor and then slashed at Wu Xingzhou's body.

With a single shot, Wu Xingzhou was knocked off his horse!

The gun tip was pointed directly at Wu Xingzhou's neck, and he coldly said, "Men, tie him up!"

Wu Xingzhou looked horrified, and in his heart... he was devastated!

Is that true? Last time, under the walls of Pukou City, Zhou Xiong chased you to a pulp, and you fled in a sorry state. Now, under the walls of Pukou City again, you were knocked off your horse by a mere opera singer with a single spear thrust?

Are we going to be taken prisoner?

No, he was just greedy and stole the credit for attacking Pukou City from General Zhang Shi. How could he have suffered such a miserable defeat?

They didn't get any credit, but they got beaten up without missing a single time!

The chaotic turmoil in his mind quickly subsided as the men who had come to kidnap him began whispering in his ear.

"General, don't panic. I'll put a loophole in your hand. When the time is right, you can charge out!"

Wu Xingzhou turned his head in surprise and met the man's gaze.

I managed to glean two words from that person's gaze.

"Undercover agent!"

They felt a slight sense of relief, after all, they had intelligence about the situation in Pukou City and knew about it.

When he was brought back to the crowd and everyone eagerly surrounded him, Wu Xingzhou was surprised.

"Wait, how come they're all undercover agents?"

"So... Pei Wugou led a group of undercover agents out of the city?"

"That's it... I still lost?"

"They were all our own people, and I still got beaten up?"

Wu Xingzhou wanted to cry but had no tears.

The people around them were somewhat at a loss.

Their original plan was to wait until the Duke's generals were entangled with Pei Wugou, then close the city gates with a single glance, and form a formation to surround Pei Wugou.

Pei Wugou had no other choice but to become a trapped lamb.

But Pei Wugou's display of skill left everyone stunned.

General Wu Xingzhou, fully armed, couldn't even withstand a single move from Pei Wugou. Even if they went up in formation, many of them would still die!

Of course, as a soldier, one should not be afraid of death!

But now, with the light at the end of the tunnel right in front of them, it's such a shame to die like this, without knowing why.

No one dared to carry out the previous agreement, and no one dared to step forward. They just waited for the situation to change!
