Chapter 99: Zhan Doudou swears to defend the city to the death! Bluebird vs. General Li of Qi!
Haitang obviously recognized the leading general and was immediately filled with anger.

Why would she want to be a traitor?
But at that time, no one, whether it was Shen Zhong, her master, or Uesugi Tiger, cared about her life or death.

Is it possible that she deserves to die?

She was also a citizen of Qi State. She had wanted to commit suicide in the past, but failed. What else could she do?

Although Qi had chilled her to such a degree, she had never killed a single Qi person and had always stayed safely in her carriage. How could these people dare to call her a traitor?

As for the support provided by Qi, she had helped Northern Qi complete countless difficult tasks during her time there.

Especially after she was promoted to the ninth rank, she repeatedly risked her life and fought for her life. How had she failed the State of Qi?

She had already repaid Northern Qi's kindness, and now it was time for Northern Qi to owe her!

This incident happened because Northern Qi ordered her to carry out the assassination.

Otherwise, she would have fought on the city wall, bloody battles, and would never retreat!

If those people were not indifferent to her life or death, how could she have followed Li Chengyun?

Seeing Haitang Duoduo’s face flushed with anger, Bluebird stepped forward.

At this time, Qingniao had changed into a strong suit, holding a spear, looking heroic, facing Li Chengyun, and said resolutely:
"My lord, Bluebird invites you to a fight! I swear to kill this rude fellow!"

Li Chengyun knew Blue Bird's strength and had no worries about whether he could defeat the ninth-rank general on the other side, so he nodded and agreed:

"But, you must make it quick and don't delay."

The blue bird smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir. I'll be back soon."

However, Haitang Duoduo is worried about Bluebird.

In her eyes, Bluebird is still young and perhaps not as strong as her.

General Li on the opposite side is also considered to be a leader among the ninth rank.

She is not able to crush her opponent easily, and if Bluebird goes forward, she might get hurt.

"I'd better go."

Haitang Duoduo gritted her teeth and spoke with determination.

In fact, she was extremely reluctant to engage in battle with the people of Northern Qi.

This was because she was familiar with these people, and they were all very respectful when facing her in the past.

Even General Li, who was standing opposite her, was regarded by her as an elder.

However, to this day.

She didn't want the bluebird to take the risk of getting hurt, so she had to make up her mind and take action herself.

Li Chengyun shook his head at her and said:
"You don't need to go, Bluebird is enough to handle it."

The bluebird also noticed Haitang Duoduo's concern and replied with a smile:
"Miss Haitang, there is no need to worry about me. The person opposite is no match for me."

Haitang Duoduo had no choice but to nod and agree:
"Then you must be careful. If you feel any danger, retreat immediately."

The blue bird smiled confidently, then leaped up and rushed towards the Northern Qi general like a flying swallow.

Suddenly, they saw a woman coming with a gun, and the Northern Qi generals felt relieved.

He thought he had nothing to fear unless the great master came in person.

What's more, the other party was a woman, so his confidence suddenly increased.

So he also jumped out, wanting to start a fierce battle with the blue bird.

The bluebird holds a spear.

The Northern Qi generals brandished their swords aggressively.

The two men clashed with swords and spears. There were no fancy moves, only the collision of power, which was vigorous and thrilling.

Compared with the sturdy physique of the Northern Qi general, the delicate body of the blue bird seems to have a huge gap in strength, but in fact, it is very powerful.

The power of its explosion is far beyond everyone's imagination.

Everyone thought that Blue Bird could only hold out for a few moves at most, and then would have to retreat, or the general would seize the opportunity to pursue and kill it in one fell swoop. However, the fact was that Blue Bird only fired three shots to decide the outcome.

With the first shot, Blue Bird flicked the Northern Qi general's sword with the tip of his gun, and it was cleverly deflected, like a falling leaf.

With the second shot, the Blue Bird swung the spear handle and hit the Northern Qi general heavily on the shoulder, causing his body to sway and his momentum to decrease.

With the third shot, the Blue Bird spear thrust forward with unstoppable force, piercing straight through the Northern Qi general’s body.

Then, the blue bird kicked up, and the body of the Northern Qi general flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.

This scene shocked the onlookers, and they all sighed that Blue Bird's strength was far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

How could the situation be like this?!

In the Northern Qi Dynasty, the famous General Li was defeated by a woman and was directly crushed by her.

General Li is a ninth-rank master. Isn't this shocking?

Could it be that this woman is actually a powerful person above the ninth rank?
Or, she may have already reached the level of a grandmaster!
Haitang Duoduo was even more stunned when she saw this scene.

She was just worried about Bluebird, but she didn't expect that Bluebird's strength was far beyond hers.

Such a strong person is willing to be Li Chengyun's maid. What kind of magic power does Li Chengyun have?
Haitang Duoduo couldn't help but glance at Li Chengyun beside her, and became more and more curious about this man.

on the ground.

The Northern Qi general covered his pierced chest, widened his eyes, and asked with difficulty:

"Who are you? How can you have such amazing strength?!"

The bluebird stood tall, looked around, and replied calmly:

"I am just a maid of the young master!"

After saying this, Qingniao put away his gun and walked back agilely without waiting for anyone to react.

The morale of the Northern Qi Dynasty dropped instantly, like the setting sun.

At Li Chengyun's command, Yuan Zuozong immediately led the cavalry and rushed towards the city wall like a tide, starting the siege.

……

And the other side.

In the Qi State Palace.

Zhan Doudou sat alone on the throne, majestic and lonely.

The Queen Mother of Northern Qi, who used to be by her side, had been sent by her to a place far away from the capital.

At this moment, she felt unprecedented loneliness, but at the same time she also felt an inexplicable sense of independence.

She no longer needed her mother's protection and had grown into a mature emperor capable of handling state affairs on her own.

Just as she was thinking about how to deploy her defense, a Jinyiwei rushed in from outside, looking flustered, and reported loudly:
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! General Li went out to meet the enemy, but has now been defeated and killed! The Prince of Nanqing Yan has brought his special forces and has begun to attack the city!"

Upon hearing the sad news, Zhan Doudou trembled slightly and was shocked.

The death of General Li was undoubtedly a huge loss to the State of Qi.

He was one of the few ninth-rank masters in Qi State, and his death on the battlefield undoubtedly cast a shadow on Qi State's morale.

However, this situation further aroused Zhan Doudou's inner anger.

She stood up suddenly and shouted in a thunderous voice:
"Pass the order down. All the soldiers and civilians in Shangjing must defend the city to the death. We must not let the Nanyan bandits break even an inch of our city wall!"

"I will also go up to the city wall with you. The king will die for the country and defend every inch of Qi State's land until death! We must make that Qing Gou pay a heavy price and let him know the majesty of our Qi State!"

Zhan Doudou herself is also a seventh-rank warrior, and she has never thought of escaping from this battle.

Since she chose to stay, she would live and die with Shangjing.

If Shangjing were to fall, the worst that could happen to her would be that she died heroically in battle.

And if Shangjing can hold out until the clouds clear and the moon appears, she will still be the awe-inspiring King of Qi, and the morale of the Qi soldiers will be greatly boosted, and there may even be a good opportunity to counterattack!
Zhan Doudou has long since disregarded life and death. For her, the word surrender has never existed in her dictionary.

The only way she pursues is to die standing or to achieve a glorious victory!
