A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 474 Reinforcements
Xue Yinzhou and Lu Xiao shielded Shen Tang behind them, their bodies radiating murderous intent, waiting for her command so that the two sides could immediately begin fighting.

The Rosenia army is pressing in, and they are numerous and powerful. They only have about ten people on their side, but they have brought the elite of the elite. Moreover, there are two powerful tenth-tier orcs in the team. If a battle really breaks out, the outcome is uncertain.

Shen Tang's face was grim. She was a veteran who had fought her way up from the battlefield. It was just a simple fight, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

But it's clear that their purpose is not that simple.

Rosenia's sending of troops clearly indicates its intention to provoke a war.

If we rashly start a war, we will be playing right into their hands.

National borders have always been the most sensitive issue for neighboring countries. Once a conflict breaks out on the border, it will inevitably plunge the two countries into a state of war.

Unlike Rosenia, which has developed rapidly in recent years, the Night Glow Empire suffered huge losses in the war over the past six months. After only a few months of recuperation, the resumption of war will inevitably increase the burden on the country and its people!
As the saying goes, those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to lose. When she was still a princess in exile, she was isolated and helpless, so she could charge forward headlong. But after becoming the queen, she had many things to consider.

"Hahaha, look at their cowardly appearance, they don't even dare to fight. Is the Night Glow Empire really afraid?"

"Everyone says that the Night Glow Empire is powerful and has been suppressing us Rosenia for many years. But now it seems that it is just a cowardly paper tiger that will crumble at the slightest touch!"

The mocking laughter from the opposing army was vicious and grating, causing the orcs in the ranks to turn pale.

They are the iron-blooded soldiers of the empire, how could they tolerate such an insult?

However, they were all brave and skilled generals on the battlefield, not reckless brutes who would charge forward without thinking. They were well aware that the opposing army was deliberately provoking them, and whoever made the first move would inevitably lose the upper hand in public opinion!

The two armies faced off, their tensions high and smoke billowing.

At the critical moment.

Suddenly, a brilliant fire broke out on the horizon, like the morning glow painting the sky.

A thunderous roar echoed from the horizon, the crimson banners of the Yiyuan Empire billowed like flowing clouds, and the army plunged into the battlefield like a sword drawn from its sheath.

The leading man was tall and slender, with fiery red hair and a flawless handsome appearance. His aura was incredibly powerful, and his nine fox tails swayed behind him, further highlighting his noble and awe-inspiring status!

Beside him stood a dignified middle-aged orc commander, and the two forces instantly encircled and trapped the Rosenia army in the center.

It's a classic case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!

The battle situation changed drastically!

The Rosenian army was thrown into chaos, and their formation was thrown into disarray.

Why is the crimson banner of the Yiyuan Empire here? Who exactly is that red-haired man with a fox tail? The mere pressure he exudes makes their legs go weak!
The orcs of the Nightbright Empire were stunned; the reinforcements had arrived far too suddenly. Fortunately, they were allies, not enemies!
Shen Li ignored the commotion around him and strolled leisurely through the enemy ranks. The oppressive aura of the Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline caused the Rosenia soldiers to instinctively retreat, automatically creating a path for him.

He walked up to Shen Tang and bent down slightly. His red hair was blown by the wind and fell onto her shoulders. His narrow, fox-like eyes curved into beautiful crescent moons, filled with a sly light. "Little Tang'er, have you missed me?"

Shen Tang asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Shen Li's voice was low and melancholy, "Little Tang'er, have you forgotten what Brother Li said? You ran away without even saying goodbye. Of course, I... will bring you back."

Lu Xiao and Xue Yinzhou's expressions immediately changed.

Xue Yinzhou pulled Shen Tang into his arms, his phoenix eyes fixed on him dangerously, his voice icy, "Trying to snatch him away?" Shen Li smiled faintly, "Yinzhou, long time no see. Why are you still so fierce?"

Lu Xiao frowned and coughed lightly, "...This is not the time for jokes. His Majesty Yiyuan went to great lengths to lead his troops here, surely it wasn't just for flirting?"

Moreover, Shen Li is no longer Shen Tang's beast husband.

Shen Li's smile faded slightly as she looked at Shen Tang. "You left in such a hurry. I think you must have encountered some trouble, so I came to check on you."

Then, Shen Li turned to the enemy general, his smile enigmatic, "It seems I've arrived at just the right time."

General Baron and his men listened to the two sides' skillful conversation. Even a fool could see that the two empires were in cahoots!

Instantly, the arrogance of the Rosenian army was extinguished as if doused with a bucket of cold water; they could no longer laugh and were filled with fear.

What was originally a conflict between two countries, once it broke out on the border, was bound to escalate into a deadly war. This was exactly what the leaders of Rosenia wanted to see – they had spent ten years honing their skills, waiting for this day to seize the opportunity to start a war when the Night Glow Empire's national strength was at its greatest.

However, once a third party is involved in a war between two countries, the nature of the conflict changes completely.

Not to mention, it was the powerful Yiyuan Empire.

Doesn't that turn into two against one?

They will not only lose the upper hand in public opinion, but will also be crushed in terms of combat power!
General Baron's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his attitude changed drastically. His face was plastered with a fake, ingratiating smile. "It's a misunderstanding! It's a misunderstanding! We only detected that some outsiders had intruded into the border area. We thought they were spies, haha... It seems it was just a misunderstanding. We will withdraw our troops and let you pass. To express our apology, we are willing to personally escort the neighboring country's troops back!"

Shen Li did not give them a chance to maneuver.

The army of the Yiyuan Empire surrounded the army of Rosenia. Those who resisted were killed on the spot, and those who surrendered were bound and taken back to the Night Glow Empire, where they were imprisoned as prisoners of war.

General Baron, enraged, cursed, "You two empires colluded to attack our Rosenia army! His Majesty will not let you get away with this!"

Qiu Yang walked over, kicked him to the ground, and sneered, "If you know you're a prisoner of war, behave yourself, or I'll chop off your head and send it to your emperor as a greeting gift!"

General Baron's face turned ashen, and he was so angry that he trembled all over and couldn't utter a single word.

Shen Tang didn't expect this cunning fox to act so quickly. She tried to stop him but couldn't, and she couldn't hold back any longer. "...If you do something like this, the two countries will definitely go to war."

"Little Tang'er." Shen Li twirled a strand of her hair with his fingertips, but his tone was serious. "A ruler cannot be soft-hearted. Rossonia has been raiding our borders for years. Even if you back down today, they will not be grateful."

Lu Xiao frowned slightly, seeing through the fox's ulterior motives hidden beneath its seemingly respectable reason.

As a result, war between the two countries is inevitable, and Shen Tang will have no choice but to seek external assistance. The Yiyuan Empire will be the best ally.

In this way, Shen Li was also creating an opportunity for himself.

Shen Tang knew perfectly well: it was still that cunning fox; his sincerity was genuine, and so was his scheming!
However, Shen Li was right. When dealing with neighboring countries that deliberately provoke us, we must be more assertive and annihilate them if they dare to come. Otherwise, they will only become more arrogant!
Shen Tang dislikes wars that waste resources and manpower, but she will never be lenient if the other side repeatedly violates her borders!

Moreover, Shen Tang had a vague premonition that Rosenia was probably related to the experimental base in the contaminated area—building an experimental base required a lot of manpower and resources, and it would be difficult to build such a massive project without national support.
