Chapter 1200: Two Birds with One Stone!
uted her little mouth, quite dejected. As a result, as soon as she left the ear room, she immediately became happy again.Because all three brothers were sunburned so badly, their arms and legs were bl...The soldier's shoulder went numb from the pat, but he wasn't annoyed at all. Instead, he was overjoyed.
"Not a dream, not a dream! We have steamed buns to eat, and roast chicken!"
Li Lao Si looked at the Marquis, the Marquis looked at his smiling adopted daughter, and then with a wave of his hand he ordered, "Take them down, divide it up, make sure they all eat their fill and are well-fed. Wait for orders, ready to counterattack at any time!"
"Yes, Lord!" All the soldiers immediately obeyed and rushed forward, lifting up the baskets and buckets and walking away.
Li Laosi remembered that they hadn't eaten yet, just as he was about to grab some back, his daughter pulled on his sleeve.
"Dad, let's eat too. I brought you your favorite pork ribs!"
Jia Yin smiled and made way, a felt blanket appeared beside the bonfire at some point, filled with food.
White rice, colorful dishes, chicken, fish, meat, eggs, everything! Every single one is a delicious feast that Li Lao Si's dream drools over.
There were even two jade gourds cut open!
He didn't have time to be surprised anymore. In three or two steps, he dashed forward, clutching half a jade gourd, and swung up his spoon.
"Wow, this is so delicious and refreshing!"
The Lord didn't speak, but he unceremoniously picked up the other half of the jade gourd and took large bites.
Instead, Mu Xu was focused solely on the meat, grabbing it quickly. Even Li Lao Si felt anxious watching him and tossed his jade melon before rushing over to compete with his future son-in-law for the ribs...
After a meal, the felt blanket was littered with dishes, and the several people were also round-bellied, like they were four or five months pregnant.
Jia Yin skillfully cleared the dishes and brought out a pot of sour plum soup. Everyone held their steaming cups, sipping one after another. Even the Marquis had to agree that the soldier's words were right – it felt like a dream!
The previous moment, they were rationing their roasted horse meat and politely sharing sips of horse urine.
The next moment, I suddenly went from hell to heaven, so rich...
Li Lao Si didn't have that many thoughts. Hearing that everyone in his family had already retreated south, he became a little anxious and said, "Everyone has eaten their fill. When dawn breaks, we should take advantage of the enemy's fatigue and launch a surprise attack!"
The Marquis shook his head, refuting, "That's too risky, with too many casualties. We should find a more stable way."
Having said that, he asked Jia Yin, "Did you bring any poison or M medicine I want to find a way to put it in the barbarian's water source and weaken their combat effectiveness. Our casualties would be much lower."
Jia Yin thought for a moment, then took out two small bottles from her purse and said, "Father and my godfather's ideas are both good. As long as we can reduce our casualties, any means are justified."
As she spoke, she slipped the small vial from her hand into Mu Xu's.
"Strike while the iron is hot! Attack on two fronts!"
Mu Xu lowered his head to look at the small bottle in his hand, silently complaining.
Why are all the dirty and tiring jobs his
Jiayin saw his expression and let out a cold snort.
Mu Xu immediately grinned, "Don't worry, My Lady. I will definitely complete the mission."
Li Lao Si and the Marquis watched the interaction of the children, both couldn't help but laugh.
Along the way, with no one else around, Jiayin had grown accustomed to joking and teasing Mu Xu.
Suddenly remembering that her elders were nearby, she blushed a little.
She quickly took out two more boxes and said, "I have secret weapons here too, Father and Uncle. Would you like to see them"
Both chests were painted black, with brass corners. Simply placed there, they resembled beasts crouching in the night, both dangerous and mysterious...
When the first hint of dawn painted the sky, a new day was about to begin.
The naughty north wind was tireless, drifting and wandering everywhere.
When it flew to the top of the lonely mountain, it was quite startled.
Such a morning, sleeping in would be most comfortable, but here everyone has their eyes wide open, wiping swords and bows from their hands, each one gazing down the mountain with murderous intent!
In recent days, the Vanguard Army has been bullied by barbarians. They have occupied advantageous positions, making the enemy feel trapped and helpless.
Luckily, the time for revenge has finally come!
The Lord held a battle knife, stood straight, and you couldn't tell from his appearance that he had dozens of wounds on his body.
Li Lao Si eagerly gazed down the mountain, overjoyed to see Mu Xu and several of his personal soldiers return. "How did it go Was it successful" he asked.
“Of course!” Mu Xu smiled slyly, “The timing is perfect. I sprinkled the powder in the water source. Half of the barbarians drank it before bed and it's just starting to take effect now. I watched one man have a reaction, causing the rest to panic, and then I came back!”
Li Lao Si patted his shoulder heavily, laughing heartily and praising, "Good boy, you're ruthless and capable!"
Mu Xu gritted his teeth in pain and reluctantly accepted the affirmation from his future father-in-law, "happy"!
The Marquis turned back to look at Jiayin. She had changed into a neat and tidy outfit, her hair tied up, dressing like a young man.
Seeing her stepfather looking over, Jiayin smiled and gave a victory sign!
The Marquis nodded, turning to Mu Xu, "Protect the Miss, you needn't worry about the rest."
Having said that, he turned once more to the countless soldiers behind him and drew his gleaming sword!
Soldiers! This is it, the moment of truth! The barbarians down in the valley are the last remnants of the grassland tribes. If we wipe them out, our Heavenly Martial kin can enjoy twenty years of peace, and we can return home victorious, heads held high to greet our parents and loved ones! Charge forth and slaughter them all!
"Charge! Slay them all!" All the soldiers raised their waist knives and roared with all their might.
After a good meal and two hours of sleep, everyone was full of energy. They couldn't wait to get moving.
After a decade of warfare, being besieged on a lone mountain was a disgrace to everyone.
Now is the chance to avenge our past defeat!
"Wei Erniu, lead the assault team out!"
The lord issued his first command, and Wei Erniu immediately set out with his squad of over ten men. They had several dark, round objects hanging from their waists and were holding torches in their hands, which was quite strange…
Until, a thunderous roar suddenly erupted from the foot of the mountain. The barbarian camp exploded in an instant. Warhorses neighed, barbarians screamed in terror, and the north wind carried their cries clearly to his ears.
The Lord raised his battle saber high and bellowed, “Heavenly thunder strikes down, shatter the barbarians! Aid me, Tianwu, victorious in a hundred battles! Kill!”
He struck his warhorse with his foot and charged down first.
At this time, the thunder rolling down the mountain grew increasingly frequent, booming incessantly.
The soldiers were both surprised and delighted, their eyes wide with excitement as they rushed down like madmen!
The barbarians at the foot of the mountain, believing that the vanguard troops on the mountain had run out of water and food, and were wounded in half, thought they would never take the initiative to attack and would surrender themselves.
But the impossible thing happened!
Their comrade, sound asleep beside them, suddenly transformed into a stiff corpse. Before they could determine the cause, an explosion ripped through the center of their camp.
Countless people were blown to pieces, their heads shattered and blood spilling everywhere. Horses ran amok in panic.
The vanguard army seemed to descend from the heavens, harvesting their heads with every swing of their swords!
Have they been abandoned by heaven
"King of Sweat, run away!"
The old King was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly awakened. Before he could ask what was going on, a guard pulled him onto a horse's back.
