Fleeing from Disaster: The Clan Leader is Clearly Overpowered, Yet Excessively Lazy

Lin Rui, who had returned to his hometown to live a laid-back "salted fish" life, transmigrated. He found himself in a chaotic era of warring lords, foreign invasions, a weak emperor, and d...

Chapter 154 Major General, the person we want is here!

Live pigs? Wang Da was also confused, but he followed them out to join in the fun. Deng Hui and Xie Yang exchanged a glance, immediately set aside their kitchen knives, and followed them out. How could they miss such a new thing?

Twenty live pigs were driven to the gate of the military camp. Although the camp guards were still there, they couldn't help but look at the fat white pigs.

It must weigh at least 180 kilograms. Look at those strong calves, fleshy thighs, and plump pig head. Pig head meat is the best food to go with wine.

The scene of twenty pigs being driven over at once caused a great deal of commotion in the Flying Tiger Battalion. Lin Rui, not minding the fuss, smiled and said to them, "Brothers, you've worked really hard defending our country. These twenty pigs will improve your diet today. With fat in their bellies, we'll have more energy for fighting, right?"

His words made the soldiers even more enthusiastic. What did this mean? These live pigs were not given to the officers, but to the soldiers like them. As long as the barracks accepted them, everyone would have meat to eat.

Thinking of the white fat meat entering my mouth and the fat coming out of my mouth, my saliva immediately began to flow more vigorously. I couldn't express how much I loved Lin Rui.

There is no fun in the military camp except for boring tasks such as training and standing guard. The Xing family army also prohibits the establishment of places like camp prostitutes in the military camp. They would rather the soldiers get married and have children at the border than be involved in bad habits such as the brothels. Besides, the bean dregs cakes they have eaten these two days have a strong taste of bean dregs in their mouths. After filling their stomachs, people always have other ideas, such as improving the taste.

Today, Lin Rui's twenty live pigs finally touched the hearts of the three thousand soldiers in the Flying Tiger Battalion.

When Xing Lie and Han Wenjing walked out of the tent, they heard the soldiers around them whispering to each other from time to time. Even from a distance, they could see their excited expressions.

Xing Lie couldn't help but glance in the direction of Baixing Town: "Could it be that Deputy General Wang has returned with the food?"

He strode forward and stood in front of two soldiers who were still talking and laughing quietly. "What are you talking about?"

The soldiers didn't pay attention to him at first, waving their hands impatiently: "Go ask someone else, can't you see we are busy!"

Han Wenjing stood behind them and shouted, "How dare you speak to the Major General in such a disregarded manner? I think you want to be beaten with a stick!"

These words immediately brought the two soldiers back to their senses. They knelt down and apologized: "I have offended the Major General. I deserve death. I hope the General will punish me."

Xing Lie, despite being a stickler for enemies and deserters on the battlefield, was usually quite easy to talk to in the camp. Seeing this, he simply waved his hand and asked the two men to stand up. He then asked the same two questions: "I see everyone in the Flying Tiger Camp is talking and laughing today. What good news happened?"

The soldier said, "Reporting to the Major General, a kind-hearted person has sent meat to our Flying Tiger Battalion!"

Han Wenjing also stepped forward at this time. He heard it clearly and couldn't help but repeat it in confusion: "Meat? How much meat?"

How much meat would it take to make everyone in the Flying Tiger Battalion so happy?

The soldier immediately bowed and said, "In reply to Lord Han, he sent twenty live pigs, but the people in the Fire Head Battalion didn't dare to accept them!"

Wang Da felt the pressure was on. A few pounds of meat would have been fine, as the Huotou Battalion could have digested it all internally. But twenty live pigs was more than a small undertaking. The soldiers, who had been living on a meager diet, couldn't sit still. Their eager eyes almost clung to the pork.

Han Wenjing was also surprised. Ever since their Xing family army opened the city gates to welcome these refugees and distributed wasteland, it wasn't that no one had come to express their gratitude, but the gifts they gave were also tokens of their appreciation, such as a basket of bean sprouts, a basket of tofu, etc. After all, everyone was suffering, and these things were squeezed out of their teeth.

The soldiers didn't want it, they just dropped the food and ran away, which was both funny and touching, so they had no choice but to pick up the food.

These are just minor incidents. The one who delivered pork at the gate of the Flying Tiger Camp was the only one that mobilized a large number of troops and alarmed the entire camp.

Han Wenjing looked at Xing Lie, who had already started running towards the door: "Let's go, let's join in the fun!"

When Xing Lie and Han Wenjing arrived at the door, they happened to run into Wang Da, who was at a loss as to what to do. Seeing the Major General, his eyes lit up immediately, and he quickly trotted over and knelt before the Major General to ask for instructions: "Major General, this brother Lin wants to donate twenty live pigs to our Flying Tiger Battalion as a reward for the Xing Family Army's assistance to the disaster victims. I'm undecided about the decision, so I hope the Major General will give me some advice."

This was the first face-to-face photo of Xing Lie and Lin Rui. In Xing Lie's eyes, Lin Rui was completely different from himself. He was strong and powerful, while the other party looked like those noble young men in the capital, weak. His face was gentle and refined like a scholar. What caught Xing Lie's attention most was that the servant beside this man was a good material for martial arts.

In Lin Rui's eyes, Xing Lie, well, really fits the image of a major general in both TV dramas and novels. He has a handsome and resolute appearance, which is completely contrary to the popular young and handsome guys of their time. His strong upper body shows that he is used to fighting on the battlefield. There is a murderous aura in his whole body when he walks.

The man behind him, Lin Rui, looked somewhat familiar. Noticing Lin Rui's gaze, he nodded and greeted him with a friendly smile.

Xing Lie looked at him strangely: "Are you also a refugee?"

Lin Rui quickly bowed and responded.

"What did you do before entering Huangmo Pass?" Xing Lie asked again.

Lin Rui said, "I used to do business in Linjing. It wasn't until the foreigners in the north went too far and proposed to take over the capital that I realized something was wrong. Before the city was captured, I took my people and fled to Huangmo Pass."

Xing Lie felt even more uncomfortable. He thought Lin Rui was a scholar, but he was completely wrong. This man with a body as tall and straight as a pine tree was actually a businessman with a lot of money.

But businessmen are good, they have the spirit of fireworks! Nowadays, the development of Huangmoguan is inseparable from businessmen. With this thought, Xing Lie's impression of Lin Rui improved a lot, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Wang Da, obedience is worse than respect. Accept it," Xing Lie said. Han Wenjing whispered in his ear, "Young General, businessmen value profit. This man used twenty live pigs as a stepping stone and caused such a big fuss. I think his target must be you."

Xing Lie raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Rui again. The latter was still calm and gentle, and there was no sign of his intentions towards him.

Xing Lie looked at Han Wenjing, who nodded deeply, very confident in his own speculation about human nature, and said: "Major General, the person we want is here!"
