The Old Ancestor said:

"I made some inquiries, and it turns out that the Crown Prince of the Great Qi is currently living in the Imperial Estate."

The crown prince of the Great Qi Kingdom is only ten years old, and is said to be exceptionally gifted and intelligent.

The Old Scholar Tree produced more than twenty dishes:

"Who cares if he's the crown prince or not, the food at his imperial estate is indeed delicious."

I brought back a lot last time, and this time it's even more plentiful."

Honey-glazed Eight-Treasure Duck, Braised Ham and Pork Knuckle, Steamed Grouper, Roasted Venison Breast, Crispy Quail, Chicken Marrow and Bamboo Shoots, Crab Meat Stew with White Jade Tofu, Braised Pheasant, Cold Tossed Bamboo Shoots, Shrimp Ball and Fresh Mushroom Soup, Old Duck and Fresh Bamboo Shoot Soup, Crystal Fruit Platter, Braised Fish Slices, Imperial Golden Minced Meat...

Old Master Xie almost drooled; this was far too lavish.

But war is about to break out, is this appropriate?

Zhou Wanwan ate a lot of food and was so full that she said:

"These shredded bamboo shoots are quite delicious, and the braised fish slices are also very tasty."

The chefs in Great Qi are quite to my liking.

The Old Scholar Tree nodded and said, "Alright, I'll invite the chef from Great Qi back and cook for you every day."

Old Master Xie's lips twitched. Was this appropriate?

Isn't that inappropriate?

But he didn't dare say much. Qin Shan had looked this way several times, and he was already starving.

Zhou Wanwan said, "Qin Shan, come and eat quickly!"

Qin Shan and Shen Xiao rushed over, and he wolfed down his food, bowl in hand.

Old Master Xie, standing nearby, stared in disbelief.

Qin Shan looked at him and said, "Old Xie, aren't you hungry? Why are you looking at me like that? I feel embarrassed to eat with you looking at me like that."

Old Xie rolled his eyes and said, "You look embarrassed."

He grabbed a bowl, took a bite, and then started gobbling it down. It was so delicious, so incredibly delicious.

After they finished eating, they saw that the army had already arrived at the city gates.

The Ever-Victorious General roared, "Bring your commander out! If you don't open the gates, we're going to begin the siege!"

Qin Shan was furious. He yelled while munching on a steamed bun, "What's all the noise about? If you want to fight, then fight! Why all the nonsense? I haven't finished my meal yet!"

The Ever-Victorious General snorted coldly and said, "Fine, how arrogant! Men, charge! Attack the city!"

No sooner had the Ever-Victorious General finished speaking than they saw countless rockets being fired; it turned out that this was their plan.

The rocket is full of fuel; if it hits the city wall, the wall will catch fire very quickly.

Unfortunately, those rockets could curve, and they all bounced back as soon as they hit the city wall.

Many soldiers screamed in pain, "My face! My face is burned!"

"My arm hurts so much!"

"Ouch, it's so hot! My hair is on fire!"

Even the Ever-Victorious General was dumbfounded; those rockets had actually learned to turn.

On the other side, General Who Proclaims Might shouted, "Hurry up and dig! Why haven't you finished digging yet?"

"We don't know either! It felt like we were almost through."

The people above were extremely anxious and immediately started digging for them, saying, "Why are you all so slow? What are you dawdling about? Hurry up and dig!"

General Who Proclaims Might and his soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment. "Are those our men up there?"

Everyone shook their heads. They had finally dug through. Qin Shan looked at them and said:

"Come on up! Why aren't you coming up? Are you waiting for me to invite you?"

Didn't you want to come to the city for a stroll? Now's your chance.

General Who Proclaims Might was so frightened that he turned and ran, but there was only smoke behind him, and he couldn't see the road at all.

Qin Shan said calmly, "Your exits are blocked; you can only enter, not leave."

General Who Proclaims Might, enraged, shouted, "Qin Shan, you despicable scoundrel, how dare you scheme against me!"

Qin Shan raised his head, took a deep breath, and said, "You idiot, what do you mean by despicable? You were about to ambush me, what more do you want from me? Are you coming out or not?"

Now General Who Proclaims Might and his group are like trapped rabbits, with no way to escape.

He obediently walked into the city, looked at Yanmen Pass, and said, "Good heavens! Am I dreaming? This is Yanmen Pass? Have I come to the wrong place?"

The other soldiers were dumbfounded. "We were at Yanmen Pass last month, and this Yanmen Pass is nothing like this. How come it feels so much like Suiyuan City?"

"It's not just similar, it feels exactly the same to me! But this place is even more prosperous than Suiyuan City."

"Wait a minute! So Suiyuan City was stolen back by them."

Everyone was shocked; General Who Proclaims Might turned pale. What did this mean?

This means that Zhou Wanwan has an extremely powerful army, capable of moving an entire city back in a single night. What kind of army is this?

Zhou Wanwan was still on the city wall, looking down at Ever-Victorious General. Ever-Victorious General said, "If fire attacks don't work, then we'll use battering rams."

The force of the crash was so great that it could have smashed open the city gate.

The ram was quickly pushed in; the huge wooden battering ram was covered with sheet metal, and the soldiers pushed it over, ready to smash the door.

Then Zhou Wanwan's voice came through:

"Planning to break down the door? You try breaking it down today, I advise you to stop right now."

Otherwise, you will be responsible for any consequences.

Just as the Ever-Victorious General was about to speak, he looked up and saw the General Who Proclaims Might standing on the city wall.

He waved his hand, Ever-Victorious General said loudly:

"General Who Proclaims Might, what do you mean by this?"

I'm here relentlessly attacking the city, and you're just watching the show from above? Have you no shame?

Didn't we agree to join forces and take Yanmen Pass? How come you went to Yanmen Pass as a guest?

How are we supposed to fight? How are we supposed to fight?

The Ever-Victorious General roared from below, while the General Who Proclaims Might wept uncontrollably upstairs; he was completely unable to move or even speak.

There was an invisible force binding him.

Zhou Wanwan smiled slightly and said:

"General Who Proclaims Might, look how anxious your good brother is! It seems there's another one!"

I just don't know how they plan to show up.

No sooner had I finished speaking than I saw many hot air balloons flying in the sky.

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up and she said, "Your good brother Amur has appeared."

Amur laughed loudly in the air, "This little girl would never have imagined I'd make my entrance like this. Isn't it cool?"

The soldiers around him nodded in agreement, saying, "Handsome, super handsome! Incredibly handsome!"

Amur snorted coldly and said:

"This little girl is really something. Once I catch her, I'll make her make a lot of money for me."

This little girl is really good at making money. She supplies us with rice, alcohol, meat, and even clothes.

"If we capture her and bring her back, wouldn't our king praise me greatly?"

The soldiers nearby nodded and said, "Is this little girl really that capable? You can't judge a book by its cover; isn't she only six years old?"

Amur said, "Yes, he is indeed only 6 years old, that's the traditional Chinese age reckoning. If we're talking about actual age, he's probably only 5."
