Both Lie Fan and Lu Lingqi were shocked by what Zhou Chang said, like lighting striking them to their core. Lie Fan was surprised and then ashamed because of Zhou Chang’s words and wished to kick this slow man due to what he said as he was having a normal conversation with Lu Lingqi, while Lu Lingqi herself turned red at a fast speed and was embarrassed due to what Zhou Chang said and focus herself on battle causing more suffering for her enemies.

Zhou Chang still doesn’t understand the misunderstanding and embarrassment he has caused to both Lie Fan and Lu Lingqi when he was arguing with his compatriots while battling Gongsun Du’s men not knowing that a heavy punishment is waiting for him.

Looking at Zhou Chang who doesn’t realize what kind of situation he has caused, Lie Fan can only sigh and release his anger on Gongsun Du’s men while reflecting on why he feels angry with Zhou Chang, even though his words caused a misunderstanding, but he can feel that the anger isn’t because of that.

It’s more like he is angry that Zhou Chang exposed him, and Lu Lingwi’s action further caused him to be angry at Zhou Chang like it causes him several setbacks, setbacks to what he doesn’t know.

With a headache, Lie Fan decided to store this matter to think through later after the battle and focused on fighting Gongsun Du’s men.

Due to Zhou Chang, the perfect coordination and teamwork between Lie Fan and Lu Lingqi turned slightly stiff, which allowed some of Gongsun Du’s men to manage passed by the two of them.

Fortunately, there were Lie Fan’s Bodyguards and Lu Lingqi’s Battalion who supported their respective Lord and Lady, but with Gongsun Du’s general sensing, more men heard Lie Fan and Lu Lingwi’s direction the situation changed slightly as well.

More ladders were placed on the wall, which allowed Gongsun Du’s men to reach the top of the wall, and the large amount of enemies wasn’t a problem for Lie Fan, Lu Lingqi, and Lie Fan’s Bodyguard.

It’s a different matter for Lu Lingqi’s Unit, which consists of women, and even though they were experts and trained in martial arts, the physical between men and women was naturally different.

If they faced the peasants, farmers, and low bandits that joined the Yellow Turbans, Lu Lingqi’s unit could take them on easily since their training and experience were higher than the Yellow Turbans.

It’s a different matter if they had the same experience and training, now it doesn’t mean Gongsun Du’s men’s training is better than Oriole’s, but it is different for the men’s as the physical strength is higher than women with the same experience and training.

Knowing that Lie Fan decided to let Gongsun Du’s men have more ground and ordered his men to retreat several steps back, to alleviate the pressure on Lu Lingwu’s unit also he didn’t want to take a risk where he or Lu Lingqi would be surrounded.

Lie Fan also has his battalion the Tian Mao Battalion join the rank of Lu Lingqi’s Unit, to bolster their firepower and he doesn’t need to worry about discrimination, as he has instilled in his personal battalion that women and men who fight for him and ready to sacrifice their life are all his subordinate no exception made.

Due to this Lie Fan could rest easy since there would be no conflict between the Tian Mao Battalion and Lu Lingqi’s unit, and he alongside Lu Lingqi could focus on fighting the enemies and leading them.

On the other walls other than the one Lie Fan stationed, the Western and Eastern Walls were also under attack by Gongsun Du’s Army, but the manpower was much less than the one on Lie Fan’s side due to them focusing their manpower on Lie Fan.

Xu Rong and Ji Ling lead the respective Walls and begin to notice the decreasing amount of Gongsun Du’s men that attacked their respective Walls, their military minds begin to speculate about this problem.

It was then they received news that the Wall that Lie Fan led which was the Northern Wall received more of Gongsun Du’s men than their area, hearing this the two of them sent some of their soldiers to help Lie Fan reinforce the Northern Wall.

While the battle was going on fiercely between Lie Fan and his army against Gongsun Du’s expeditionary army that was sent to reinforce Gongsun Kang, at Gongsun Du’s capital a piece of news was received from the frontier that shook Gongsun Du and his retainers.

On the frontier of Gongsun Du’s domain in the Southeast, Goguryeo the Korean Kingdom was continually pushed back by Gongsun Du’s expeditionary army, counterattack after knowing that there was no big army guarding the border.

When Gongsun Du received this information he showed the letter in his hand in a fit of anger, he didn’t these aliens to dare to fight back and invade his domain, if it had been a normal situation before he would have sent his main army to suppress them.

Now the situation is different, he has to call back the expeditionary army from the frontiers and send them to block Lie Fan’s advance and if they could defeat Liw Fan and take him prisoner to negotiate.

What he and his retainers didn’t expect and calculate was the reaction of the aliens the moment they knew the lack of military presence in his border, now that the Goguryeo had begun their move it wouldn’t be long before the Xiongnus would do the same as them.

Gongsun Du: ”Bastard! Bunch of Bastards! How dare those small ants dare to fight back now?! And you bunch of old bones don’t stay silent, gave me a solution or a plan to handle this!”

Gongsun Gong: ”Father, I’m sorry but there’s no other solution other than raising levies from the commoners and sending a militia army to handle the Goguryeos, since if we don’t act fast enough, the Xiongnus would smell blood and do the same as the Goguryeos.”

General 1: ”Second Young Master sending a militia army against the Goguryeos is a suicide! Our army is definitely stronger than them, but peasants and farmers will be decimated by them!”

Advisor 1: ”I agree with the general, Second Young Master plan is too risky not just about casualties but also the impact it could have on our economy and stability if we forcefully recruit the commoners!”

Gongsun Gong: ”Then what plane do all of you have?! Don’t just contradict my suggestions! Give a better solution than mine to my father! Don’t was the money we paid for all of your wages!”

Advisor 2: ”Why the Second Young Master’s words are too rude, how could you say that we was the wages that My Lord paid us? Also if we had a solution we would have surely given it to My Lord, but unfortunately, there’s no solution we could give right now.”

Gongsun Gong: ”Humph! If that is the case, then I have another solution to give Father, if we don’t want our land to be taken by Goguryeo then we can only surrender to Lie Fan since we can’t fight in two front with the condition of our military power right now, and it’s much better to surrender to a people do the same culture.”

The moment Gongsun Gong finished his word, an outage and outcry were heard throughout the hall. No one expected to hear such words from anyone there, especially Gongsun Du’s own son would say such words.

Gongsun Du was also shocked by the words this own so a have just said, he didn’t expect Gongsun Gong would say such words, he knew that his second son would never say such words if it weren’t for the crisis they were facing right now.

His second son was very smart, the smartest among his subordinates, and could be said to be the most talented advisor under him and his eldest son is the most talented general under him.

That’s why even though the officials that were sent by the Han Dynasty and Dong Zhuo held large influence over his government, he could still retain a large power due to his two sons.

While he was angered by what Gongsun Gong had just said, especially since he didn’t consult with him first, he knew that there was some truth to what Gongsun Going had just said.

Facing Lie Fan alone already put them in such a terrible spot, now the Goguryeos joining the battle put a large amount of pressure on them, and if they didn’t act fast enough he was 100% sure the Xiongnus would also attack them.

His hard work for years will go down the drain if he doesn’t do anything to handle this matter, but the potion that Gongsun Gong gave to surrender to Lie Fan is something that he doesn’t want to do.

While Gongsun Du was silent mulling over what Gongsun Gon was saying and the current condition of their situation, Gongsun Gon was facing several generals and advisors that are besieging him, and reprimanding him for the solution he gave.

Gongsun Gong wasn’t afraid of them and faced them head on, for in his eyes the survival of the Gongsun Clan was the ultimate priority and if they survived, in the future they could rise once again after accumulating power.

That’s why he gave the solution to surrender to Lie Fn, as he was sure that Lie Fan needed the Gongsun Clan to take care of the matter in You Province and had an interest in expanding his area outside of the Empire.

At this time loud voices were exchanged between Gongsun Gong and several generals and advisors when suddenly a soldier came in hurriedly without announcing his presence while shouting emergency news from the frontline.

This caused the hall to become silent immediately and Gongsun Du who was in his own thoughts woke up and was attracted to the soldier who came in bringing news from the frontline.

The soldier kneels down and after receiving permission from Gongsun Du to speak, he informs Gongsun Du and everyone in the hall that Gongsun Kang has been captured by Lie Fan and that the town is in Lie Fan’s control right now, while the expeditionary army was trying their best sieging the town to save Gongsun Kang, and everyone in the hall was shocked when they hear the news and the sound of Gongsun Du fainting falling down from his chair was the only voice heard in the hall.
