Chapter 314: Settling Accounts with King Jin

"Li'er, thank you!"

Nangong Min held Bai Li's hand tightly, trembling slightly.

Nangong Min cherishes it even more after losing it and then getting it back.

When she disappeared, he felt like the sky was falling and he lived like a walking corpse. He never wanted to experience that feeling again.

He swore that he would protect Bai Li with his life for the rest of his life.

Even if her abilities were strong enough that she didn't need his protection.

But, she is a woman after all, and a woman should be protected by a man who loves her. He is the man who loves her deeply.

As if by telepathy, Bai Li felt a pain in her heart and held his hand tightly.

Although she didn't know what he had been through when she disappeared, the moment she saw him, she was immediately shocked by his haggard appearance!

At that moment, her heart was shocked, and her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a big hand, and she was in so much pain that she couldn't breathe.

She knew then that she might be hopelessly in love with this ancient man.

And he probably fell in love with her earlier than she did.

The two held hands, and at this moment, their hearts were so in tune with each other for the first time, they understood each other and felt the same.

"Prince Jin is not only the enemy of the Great Zhou, but also our enemy. This time, we must not let him live!"

Bai Li seemed to be making a promise and swearing, his eyes were firm and determined.

"Okay! Leave it to me!"

Nangong Min responded affectionately, saying that this time, he would kill his enemy with his own hands and seek justice for Li'er.

Bai Li then summoned He Daniu, Nangong Min, and other generals, and said in a low but firm voice, “Tonight, we will raid the bamboo forest next to the Prince of Jin’s camp.

Everyone knows that King Jin has set up many traps in the bamboo forest. We don't need to force our way in. We can still use daytime tactics and use fire attacks. We don't have to worry about them not coming out.

We were about to succeed during the day, but it was the witch doctor and that eagle that ruined everything.

But the eagle has poor vision at night, and without it, the witch doctor would find it difficult to unleash the power of his hidden weapon.

This is our chance to destroy King Jin before Simon's 200,000 troops arrive.

This battle must be concluded quickly, and the King of Jin must be annihilated in one fell swoop!"

He Daniu frowned slightly and said worriedly, "Marshal Bai, although this is a good opportunity, I'm afraid that Prince Jin has already come up with a countermeasure. Using fire attack will not work."

Bai Li smiled slightly, a confident glint in his eyes. "Don't worry, even if the King of Jin is prepared, he can't withstand the thousands of rockets. What we need to do is to surround the bamboo forest tightly and not let a single Simon soldier escape.

Also, we should use our internal support to capture the King of Jin alive."

As she spoke, she looked at Namgoong Min.

Nangong Min understood and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, Marshal. I have contacted a soldier in the Jin King's camp. He will persuade the Jin King to surrender and assist us at the critical moment."

So no one raised any objections.

Bai Li nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand: "Okay, it's settled!"

In the bamboo forest, King Jin had been looking forward to it since morning, but when it was evening, the soldiers who went to buy food still had not returned, and he paced back and forth in frustration.

"Needless to say, they were detained by Bai Li!"

The witch doctor had no choice but to accept this fact. He didn't expect that Bai Li had such strict control over Qinzhou City. Even soldiers disguised as ordinary people buying food could be discovered by her.

"That's it! Everything is lost!"

The King of Jin was very angry and blamed the witch doctor.

Not only did he have to go hungry because he couldn't buy food, but he also had to pay back the soldiers three times the silver.

The witch doctor said nothing, lowered his head, lifted the curtain and drank tea.

Looking at the witch doctor's tightly wrapped face, I suddenly wanted to uncover it and see what kind of face was underneath.

Ever since I met him, I have never seen his true face.

No matter what King Jin said or did, the witch doctor concentrated on drinking tea and didn't even raise his eyelids.

The King of Jin was like punching cotton, and soon he calmed down.

There's no point getting angry right now, so let's think about how to get through this.

The night falls and the sky is dotted with stars.

Under the cover of night, an army of ten thousand quietly marched towards the bamboo forest of King Jin's camp five miles away.

The team marched extremely quietly, with only the sound of light footsteps and the friction of weapons being heard.

When the army arrived outside the bamboo forest, there was silence all around, with only the rustling sound of wind blowing through the bamboo leaves.

After a while, after making an appointment with Bai Li, the 5,000 guerrillas who stayed outside the city and Nangong Min's 5,000 private soldiers arrived at the meeting place one after another.

Bai Li looked at the sky, estimated the time, and turned to He Daniu and said, "He Daniu, lead 5,000 elite soldiers and make a detour from the left. If you encounter an ambush, do not fight to the death. Use the horn as a signal to attract the enemy's attention."

He Daniu clasped his fists and accepted the order: "Yes!"

Then, Bai Li said to Nangong Min, "Nangong Min, lead 5,000 men to advance from the right side and quickly surround all exits. Remember, act quickly!"

Nangong Min's eyes were firm: "I guarantee to complete the task!"

After making all the arrangements, Bai Li personally led the main force and cautiously approached the bamboo forest.

In the bamboo forest, shadows are everywhere, and occasionally you can see some clues of mechanisms exposed on the ground.

Several secret sentries deployed around the bamboo forest had already been killed by Bai Li's men. The arrival of Bai Li and others was completely unnoticed by King Jin's men.

At this time, a black shadow flashed out from the darkness. It was the insider who was in contact with Nangong Min.

He whispered to Bai Li, "Marshal Bai, please follow me. The eagle is over there."

Bai Li's plan was to subdue the eagle first, and if he couldn't control it, he would just kill it.

"Li'er, be careful!"

Bai Li nodded to indicate that he understood. Nangong Min and He Daniu took their men away respectively. Bai Li followed the insider along a small path to an open space near the stable.

A large black mass was crawling in a corner of the open space. Judging from its size, it was undoubtedly an eagle.

The eagle is too large to enter the barracks for the night.

The witch doctor fed the eagle another pill before going to sleep, so he left the eagle here without worrying about it flying away.

Perhaps because of the medicine it had taken, the eagle tucked its head into its wings and crawled motionless.

Bai Li signaled the accomplice to step back, and she quietly approached it.

"Be careful, it's very ferocious. If you get close to it, it will go crazy and peck you to make a bloody hole!"

Seeing how scared he looked, could it be that he had seen an eagle pecking at someone?

But now is not the time to gossip, it would be troublesome if we wake up the eagle.

Bai Li nodded to indicate that he understood, and at the same time made a gesture to keep quiet.

Closer and closer, Bai Li was less than ten feet away from the eagle!

The insider was worried for her, but he couldn't help. The only thing he could do was to cover his mouth tightly to prevent himself from making any sound and disturbing the eagle.

Faced with this huge monster, Bai Li had no idea where to start.

During the day, I saw that its wings were three meters long when spread out, its beak was like an iron hook, and its legs were like iron pillars. I was afraid that it could kick a strong man away with just one kick.
