Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife

The main forces of Great Wu had come from afar and were already exhausted. Now, with two hundred thousand troops inside Cloud City and the support of cannons, if a surprise attack were launched at night, the three hundred thousand forces of Great Wu simply had no way to cope.

This was the first battle that Song Xuelin and Dongmen Feiyue participated in since arriving in North Country from the polar regions, so they paid extra attention to this fight.

Now that North Country had the terrifying weapon of the cannon, the status of Grandmasters had become less important than in the past. Therefore, in their view, if they wanted to gain the King's attention, they had to achieve more military exploits.

In this battle, they not only had to win but also had to achieve a more perfect victory.

Night fell.

In the camp of Great Wu, fires still burned, and generals like Zhan Hong and Xu Xingwen did not relax just because they had reached Cloud City. They were in their tents, looking at the map of North Country and making plans for what to do next.

The plan they were formulating now was how to act after taking Cloud City. In their eyes, Cloud City was already in the bag, the broken-down city hardly a challenge at all.

At this moment, Xu Xingwen spoke up, "Although Zhuge Zhongguang is known for his scholarly pursuits, few have seen him in action. His actual strength is likely much stronger than our estimates."

Hearing this, Zhan Hong laughed heartily and then said, "General Xu, this isn't like you, to be afraid of a feeble scholar."

Xu Xingwen continued, "According to the intelligence gathered by Princess Junwan in Great Sum, above the Grandmaster is the Grandmaster in the Zenith Realm. When a Grandmaster enters the Zenith Realm and triggers an extraordinary phenomenon, he can enter the Pseudo-Celestial Realm. Though it's not being a True Celestial, their strength could likely increase dramatically."

"North Country once witnessed such a phenomenon, indicating that Zhuge Zhongguang has also entered the Pseudo-Celestial Realm. We have never crossed hands with an enemy from the Pseudo-Celestial Realm before."

"General Zhan, it's better to be careful."

Hearing this, Zhan Hong smiled and still did not take Xu Xingwen's words seriously, "Even if Zhuge Zhongguang is a Pseudo Celestial, even if he's a True Celestial, I'm not afraid of him!"

"General Xu, when have you ever..."

Zhan Hong had not finished speaking when a loud "boom" erupted outside the tent, causing the generals inside to hear a ringing in their ears.

Realizing that something might have happened, Xu Xingwen immediately went to the tent entrance and asked the soldiers outside, "What happened?"

No sooner had Xu Xingwen finished speaking than another boom sounded nearby, and Xu Xingwen saw some soldiers' bodies being blown away.

The next moment, the voices of the soldiers rose up in the camp.

"Enemy attack!!!"

The sounds of horns converged into a single torrent.

Soldiers poured out of their tents, weapons in hand, ready to fight.

Zhan Hong led the true elite of Great Wu, whose soldiers responded incredibly quickly. They were ready for battle just shortly after the horns began to sound.

At this moment, Zhan Hong emerged from his tent, looking somewhat incredulously at the scene before him.

They had only just arrived at Cloud City, not yet launched an attack, and the enemy had taken the lead in mounting a sneak attack on them.

The soldiers of North Country must have underestimated them, perhaps thinking that after a long and exhausting trek, they would quickly fall into disarray faced with a surprise attack?

Hah, ridiculous!

This army of three hundred thousand was the best of the elite from Great Wu. Even in the face of a sneak attack, they could quickly react and organize a counterattack.

They had initially planned to let the defenders of Cloud City live one more night, but since they didn't know any better, they couldn't blame them for what came next!
