Special Expert of Beauty CEO-Chapter 1566 - 1570: Lei Shi Who Refuses to Believe in Evil

"General Lei, it's not that I'm boosting others' morale while dampening ours, but the combat power of the Dragon Clan soldiers is truly unmatched by our East State troops."

When no one else spoke, Qin Tian stepped forward to speak.

After all, Qin Tian is on good terms with Lei Shi and is the second-highest-ranking officer among all the generals present, so he spoke candidly to Lei Shi, expressing his thoughts.

"In terms of individual combat power, our troops' Cultivation Immortality experts wouldn't lose to the Dragon Clan soldiers. But when it comes to group combat power, the Dragon Clan's troops, with their coordination and formation battle capabilities, we really can't compare right now."

Qin Tian spoke truthfully, with several generals beside him silently nodding in agreement.

"Qin Tian, your words make it sound like our million-strong army wouldn't be able to hold its own against the Dragon Clan's mere thirty thousand. Haha, I've experienced the Dragon Clan's combat power over a decade ago, and I know it well—they're just defeated opponents."

Lei Shi continued to speak confidently.

"That was the Dragon Clan over a decade ago. The current Dragon Clan, General Lei, don't forget, Long Tianwu is reputed to be the number one woman of the Dragon Clan, and now in her thirties, she's already mastered the military and political power of the Dragon Clan. Taking the throne as Empress, she has become the first female Emperor in Dragon Clan history—an achievement within reach! We must not underestimate such a woman…"

"Hahaha, Qin Tian, were you frightened by Long Tianwu? Wasn't the last time she was left defeated and fleeing in disarray by you? If you could handle her, I, Lei Shi, can certainly do the same."

Lei Shi interrupted Qin Tian directly, rendering Qin Tian speechless: "Alright, you're in command here, I'll listen to you. I was merely suggesting earlier."

Before arriving at Sea City, Xiao Zhan explicitly stated that Qin Tian should follow Lei Shi's command, so now Qin Tian felt that further words were pointless.

Lei Shi is overconfident; he will realize it once he faces difficulties.

"Alright, let's do this. I'll send my deputy general to try it out. Haha, I'll show you how my Lei family army deals with those water ghosts from the Dragon Clan!"

Lei Shi looked at the map, gesturing towards a small town in the northern direction, away from Sea City, called Baisha Town: "Zhao Qinghu!"

"Here, General!"

Lei Shi's most trusted deputy general Zhao Qinghu stepped forward, his cultivation has already reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage, making him a powerful Cultivation Immortality expert.

"The Dragon Clan's army will soon be at Sea City's gates. Before they arrive, they've dispatched a small troop to clear their path north and south. In the north, here at Baisha Town, the Dragon Clan sent five thousand troops for an attack. Hmm, I'm giving you eight thousand; can you secure Baisha Town and repel this small force of the Dragon Clan before they arrive?"

"No worries, General, just five thousand—they can't hold against my eight thousand. If they do, we're not fit to be called Lei family troops!"

Full of confidence, Zhao Qinghu declared: "I anticipate that the Dragon Clan scouting team will arrive in two days. I'll set out now and engage them at Baisha Town in two days. General, please await the good news!"

"Hm, you indeed are the ace of my Lei family army!"

Lei Shi laughed heartily and nodded, saying: "But remember, after defeating them, do not linger on the battlefield. The Dragon Clan's reinforcements will arrive soon; once you've defeated them, return to Sea City immediately!"

"Understood, General."

"Yes, I just want you to show the generals terrified by the Dragon Clan army that defeating them is child's play."

As he spoke, Lei Shi glanced around at everyone, leaving them silent, bowing their heads.

Only Qin Tian stood there, shaking his head with a faint smile, thinking, since you wish to seek trouble for yourself, fine, let your Lei family army experience the might of the Dragon Clan army to teach you a lesson.

The Dragon Clan's army, thousands of miles away, is gradually approaching Sea City, while also dispatching two small scout forces to the north and south.

At this time, apart from Zhao Qinghu's troops heading to Baisha Town, both the south and the central route, based on everyone's suggestions, remain wide open, lacking formal defense forces, allowing the Dragon Clan's armies to drive straight in.

Five hundred miles east of Sea City lies plain terrain, easy to attack but difficult to defend. Before Xiao Zhan's main troops and the four large camps arrive, Lei Shi, holding his one hundred thousand troops, dares not act hastily.

"Report!"

Two days later, a scout rushed into the military mansion, sweat streaming down as he reported in front of the generals: "General, reporting, General Zhao's forces are engaged in battle with the Dragon Clan's forces thirty miles north of Baisha Town, the fighting is intense!"

Originally analyzing the situation with the generals, Lei Shi burst into laughter upon hearing this news, exclaiming: "Everyone, everyone, do you see? They're engaged in battle, hahahaha…"

"East of Baisha Town is all flatlands, the eight thousand troops led by Zhao Qinghu are from my Lei family army's elite forces, especially the five thousand Spiritual Beast Cavalry. Hmph, these are ace cavalry units trained by me personally. On the plains, the Dragon Clan's forces against my ace troops, this time, I'll teach them a lesson!"

As soon as Lei Shi finished speaking, the generals congratulated him in unison: "Congratulations, General Lei, congratulations, General Lei."

Among them, Qin Tian went along with the crowd, but wore a helpless smile, thinking: "Ace troops? Your Lei family army is strong? You're dreaming; my Qin family army could defeat you one thousand strong with just five thousand! This time, I predict Zhao Qinghu won't last more than half a day before retreating…"

"Report!"

The generals' congratulations to Lei Shi had barely concluded when another rapid report came.

"General, reporting, General Zhao's forces suffered defeat, Baisha Town has been captured!"

Gasp!

The scout's voice hadn't faded before the room was filled with awkward silence!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Each person turned towards Lei Shi, unable to comprehend.

Lei Shi too was dazed, furrowing his brow, yelling at the scout in anger: "What did you say? Say it again!"

Terrified, the scout could only report truthfully: "General, we discovered from two teams that after General Zhao engaged the Dragon Clan's troops, within less than an hour, they were defeated and retreated…"

Swish!

Lei Shi's eyes widened: "Did you make a mistake or not? Did you make a mistake! How is this possible! Zhao Qinghu led my ace cavalry units!"

"General, this is indeed the information uncovered by us! We'll continue investigating! Continue investigating!"

Terrified, the scout hurriedly retreated, fearing Lei Shi might strike him dead in anger.

"Report!"

The previous scout had just left when another came in:

"General, reports state that after General Zhao's defeat, they didn't reach Baisha Town, which has already been seized by the Dragon Clan! Now, the route to return to Sea City is blocked by the Dragon Clan as General Zhao, with the remnants of his unit, retreats south!"
