Chapter 386: Taking in a Maid
Sheng Ze frowned and said nothing.
Zheng Shicheng didn't say anything either.
At this moment, the sound of horse hooves could be heard, followed by Liang Cheng's commanding voice, "General Zhao is out of danger. My men, rest assured!"
After saying this, he suddenly drew the long sword from his waist and pointed it straight to the sky. "Men, listen up! We will not tolerate this cowardice. Avenge General Zhao and drive these barbarians out!"
Liang Cheng took the lead and rushed to the front. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the formation. He fought with his spear and sword with great force, giving the opposing Tuo Yu people no chance to prepare.
Zheng Shicheng frowned as he watched this scene. "The general is being too impulsive this time."
Our side was not prepared at all. It was really a disaster to rush forward like this.
Sheng Ze raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, "I think the general did just the right thing."
The one who asked “why” was Ling Yun.
He didn't understand it either.
Sheng Ze pointed at the soldiers fighting behind Liang Cheng and said, "General Zhao's life was hanging by a thread before. They were worried and lost their positions, which pushed the battle line back. Now that they know General Zhao is fine, their desire for revenge is strongest."
He didn't explain it clearly, but Zheng Shicheng and Ling Yun both understood.
To put it bluntly, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. The hatred values of these soldiers have been stretched to the maximum, and they have rested for such a long time. Liang Cheng's words aroused the blood in their hearts. Anyone who dares to rush forward will never be afraid.
The situation was different on the barbarian side. They had just won a battle and were probably feeling smug at the moment. However, they were counterattacked by Liang Cheng and his men at the cost of their lives, and their momentum was weakened a lot.
"I see, then what are you waiting for? I can't be left out of this kind of thing." Ling Yun rushed out with a heavy sword in his hand.
Those who are familiar with Ling Yun know that his best weapon is not a knife or a sword, but a heavy sword.
The so-called heavy sword must weigh at least fifty kilograms.
This is the weapon Ling Yun has been practicing with since he was ten years old. Liang Cheng specially ordered the Military Equipment Supervisor to make it for him, and it was just completed a few days ago.
Shengze did not move because the outcome of this battle was visible to the naked eye.
There was fighting and death outside the city of northern Hubei, but the rich and powerful families in the city were not affected, just like the Zhang Mansion at this time.
Zhang Dong emerged from an exquisite courtyard in the backyard of the Zhang Mansion, his eyes gleaming with interest. "This Miss Ting is truly interesting. I redeemed her, and she's actually trying to make fun of me. Haha."
The servant beside him had been replaced. Upon hearing this, he immediately flattered her: "The ones you met before were too submissive. Isn't this exactly what you want?"
"It suits my taste." Zhang Dong touched his chin. "If it really suits my taste, it would be fine. Unfortunately, it has the form but not the spirit. It's just a waste of time."
His eyes were a little dazed, as if he was thinking of someone.
"Sir, are you still keeping her?" the servant asked with a discerning look.
Zhang Dong waved his hand and said, "Keep it for now. It's fine if I come to play with her when I'm bored. You know what to say to my dad, right?"
"I understand. Just say that she is the young master's new maid. I don't think the master will be angry with the young master over a maid." The servant said hurriedly.
Zhang Dong patted his shoulder with satisfaction and said, "You are a good boy. Follow me from now on!"
After saying that, he walked away.
The servant winked at the maid standing outside the courtyard gate and said, "Don't talk nonsense, understand?"
"I understand."
The servant then followed Zhang Dong's direction and said, "Sir, wait for me."
