With her dual plant and beast-mastery superpowers, Lu Wanyin is reborn back to her wedding night. Her husband is a general, strong and well-built. Unfortunately, the next day the new emperor orders...
Chapter 399 Killing the Couple as a Sacrifice
"What? Lord Hou is here?"
General Li stood up suddenly and said, "Send him aside first. All the soldiers, follow me out of the camp to welcome Lord Hou."
There has been news that Hou Yuanji led an army of 400,000 to attack the wilderness.
But no one thought they could really reach the border.
General Li and his men didn't take it seriously.
In addition, he has been concentrating on studying how to make money in the wilderness recently, and has not paid much attention to the news of the 400,000-strong army.
Now we've reached the border.
General Li and his men moved faster and faster.
An army of four hundred thousand.
Then what conditions are they negotiating with the barbarians?
If they could take it down directly, wouldn't all the wealth inside belong to them?
Lu Wanyin and a few others were huddled in a corner of the tent watching the show.
The rope on her body was put into the space and then taken out as soon as she squatted in the corner, and she pretended to put it on her body, but she didn't tie it up at all.
Otherwise, with Xie Jingci's temper, there was no way he would be able to sit still.
Lu Wanyin gently kicked Ji Mingtao, whose sweat had not yet dried: "Look, what do I mean? If we come a little later, we will not be able to catch up with these 400,000 troops.
"What's the background of this General Li? He was so majestic just now, but when he heard Hou Yuanji was coming, he suddenly became a servant."
"Quiet."
The team leader who stayed in the tent to guard them glared at Lu Wanyin and said, "A 400,000-strong army is coming. Why are you so happy? You barbarians have always been lawless.
You may not know this yet, but this 400,000-strong army is targeting you barbarians."
Lu Wanyin was silent for a moment, then looked at Ji Mingtao: "A small team leader is so arrogant. It seems that everyone in this camp is not a good person."
Ji Mingtao's expression changed constantly, and after a long while he sighed in frustration: "Some of them I have already guessed, some are too well hidden.
If I hadn't come back this time, I would never have thought that they still harbored such thoughts."
He looked at Lu Wanyin helplessly: "Close the internet bar, everyone here will be counted, no one will be wronged."
Only by dealing with these people as soon as possible can we rescue those generals who still have conscience.
Brush, brush, brush——
There was the sound of swords being drawn all around.
The team leader looked around nervously: "You have people lying in ambush?"
Lu Wanyin was speechless and glanced at Ji Mingtao: "Were these people so cowardly in the past?"
The team leader was so angry that he wanted to put his sword on Lu Wanyin's neck immediately: "You are about to die, and you still dare to be so arrogant!"
Outside the tent, General Li's loud laughter suddenly rang out.
"Hahahaha, Lord Hou will lead 400,000 troops and will surely pacify the wilderness and return to the capital in triumph. When that time comes, we can follow Lord Hou and share in his joy."
This smile comes from the heart.
Including the troops on the border, it is normal for 30,000 to 40,000 people to die in a war involving more than 500,000 people.
By then, the shortfall of more than 30,000 troops that they had secretly concealed would have something to explain.
How could he not be happy?
The team leader quickly put away his knife and stood aside respectfully: "I will deal with you after I settle General Hou."
A moment later, General Li and others who had just gone out to greet them came over with Hou Yuanji and a dozen men in armor.
The person following closely behind Hou Yuanji looked around the moment he entered the tent.
After noticing Xie Jingci in the corner, he winked at them.
Lu Wanyin quietly poked Xie Jingci: "Who is this?"
Another guard I have never met before.
Xie Jingci came over quietly and whispered to her: "Di Qi."
Lu Wanyin suddenly understood.
It turned out to be the one who followed Hou Yuanji and had been delivering messages to them.
There were two other people Lu Wanyin didn't recognize either. They stood behind Di Qi in a finished shape, covering every angle with defense.
Just by looking at the position, Lu Wanyin guessed that this should be the person who stayed with Di Qi to assist him.
For the people brought up by Xie Jingci, these habits are basically ingrained in their bones.
Following Hou Yuanji on the other side were two guys who looked down on others.
One of them had a white face and no beard, with a vicious look in his eyes. He seemed to be one of the eunuchs serving the emperor.
Hou Yuanji looked at everyone present and said, "Okay, okay."
No one I know.
They are all small characters.
Unfortunately, from his angle, he was surrounded by a group of soldiers and could not see the group of people in the corner at all.
He sat down in the main seat without hesitation and glanced at the map of Zizai City on the table: "Oh, studying the map of the wilderness is quite ambitious."
General Li was dissatisfied because his position was taken away, but he didn't dare to say much.
He was about to take a seat as deputy general.
Unexpectedly, a black shadow flashed before his eyes, and Di Qi, who was following Hou Yuanji closely, took the seat first.
The eunuch was also preparing to sit down.
He had been dealt with by Hou Yuanji on the way and did not dare to seize the main seat.
Unfortunately, I didn’t get the chance to strike.
He was so angry that he was shaking, pointing at Di Qi and saying, "How dare you disrespect this military supervisor!"
Hou Yuanji's face immediately darkened, and his voice was even louder than his: "Why do you have a problem with my people?"
The eunuch dared to show disrespect to Di Qi, but he did not dare to be disrespectful to Hou Yuanji.
After all, his behavior along the way was a little strange, as if he didn't take the emperor seriously.
He swallowed his anger and lowered his posture: "After all, our family was sent by His Majesty..."
"Shut up, shut up, you keep nagging, it's always the same two sentences, I'm tired of hearing your voice, old bastard."
Hou Yuanji slammed the table impatiently. "There are so many seats. If you want to sit, sit down. If you don't want to sit down, go to the door and guard it. What a joke!"
This is the legendary number one playboy in the capital.
Another 400,000 troops were at hand.
He confronts whoever he meets without a single polite word.
General Li's heart was pounding when he heard this.
How dare you let the people sent by the emperor be your dogs? Are you trying to rebel?
He quickly put on a smile and said, "I heard that General Hou was coming, so I ordered people to prepare wine and food to welcome him. In addition, I have a generous gift to offer."
Hou Yuanji became excited: "What a great gift!"
Along the way, Lu Wanyin kept sending him things.
It seemed as if he was useless.
If I could give the master something nice, it would also earn him some face.
Although grandpa is nagging, what he says makes sense.
There are so many talented people around the master, he can't just live like this.
"That's them."
General Li raised his hand excitedly: "These are all important figures who have escaped from the wilderness. It's just right that when the two armies face each other, we can kill them as a sacrifice."
Hou Yuanji actually didn't quite believe what he said.
This guy is so strong now. What big shot can be caught by him?
Then he saw several soldiers walk to the corner of the tent and bring a few people over.
Hou Yuanji glanced over and choked on his own saliva.
He held onto the table, wishing he could cough out his lungs.
