Seeing Bai Qingyan about to speak, Shen Kunyang looked distressed and raised his hand to stop her: "Forgive my boldness, if Young General Bai were not pregnant, I would have no objection to such arrangements. But... now that Young General Bai is with child, it's already difficult to move freely! If the Huoyun Army attacks the city... the consequences are unimaginable!"
Shen Kunyang appeared respectful and said, "I watched Young General Bai join the army. Young General Bai was once under my command. You called me Uncle Shen. Today, I will be bold and refuse to follow orders. I will take 2,000 men from the 15,000. Otherwise, even if punished, I will not comply!"
