The night was as white as frost, and the moonlight was bright and clear.
On a patch of wilderness, several military tents stand, their burning campfires radiating intense heat.
Beside the campfire, a burly man wearing a tiger-skin coat stood proudly in the wind with his hands behind his back, his rugged face expressionless.
Beside him, a deputy general in full armor was bowing and reporting.
As they spoke, the lieutenant presented a gold medal to the nine-foot-tall man with both hands.
The burly man casually took it, a hint of mockery appearing on his indifferent face.
"Hmph, Qin Ze came quickly, running all the way from Xijing back to Beiliang so fast."
"I thought it was something serious. We just captured Tongwei City, and they rushed to send a gold medal to urge me to march."
As soon as he finished speaking, the lieutenant nodded, his brows slightly furrowed, and said:
"This Qin Ze, he rushed back from Xijing so quickly and immediately broke through Tongwei City."
"This is a bit...too fast. Does he have an extremely strong military force? Otherwise, how could he have captured Tongwei City so quickly?"
Wu Kui waved his hand dismissively and said:
"Tongwei City is very close to the border of Beiliang and has a small number of troops, so it is understandable that it was captured. Emperor Da Gan was thinking about the danger in Anyang County, which is why he urged them to move."
"She wanted us to rush to Beiliang, but Qin Ze is heading south now. In that case, it saves us some travel time."
The lieutenant followed up:
"Your Majesty, I still think that Qin Ze's offensive is fierce and he seems to be a difficult opponent."
Wu Kui raised his head, looked at the bright moon, then shook his head and smiled faintly, saying:
"It doesn't matter, I'll take care of it."
As he spoke, he strode toward the military camp, with his lieutenant close behind.
Upon entering the military camp and taking his tent, Wu Kui summoned all the generals.
Inside the large tent, besides Wu Kui in the main seat, there were four strong men in armor on each side.
The eight men carried different weapons: swords, spears, axes, halberds, hammers, hooks, whips, and forks. Each of them exuded a fierce and valiant aura.
These are the eight fierce generals under the current barbarian tribe. All eight are called "Tiger" and each commands an army, totaling hundreds of thousands of soldiers!
They were Wu Kui's eight most valiant men, each capable of taking on a hundred men, and were rare and formidable generals!
At this moment, Wu Kui looked at his eight fierce generals and said loudly:
"We've been out for some time now, and with this hurried journey, we're getting closer and closer to Beiliang."
"If things had gone according to plan, it would have taken some more time to reach Beiliang, but now, Qin Ze has already secretly returned from Xijing and has already breached Tongwei City a few days ago."
"Now, they are heading to Anyang County, and it seems they will be launching an attack on Anyang County soon."
"The Empress Da Gan sent me an urgent order, saying that the garrison of Anyang County only had 200,000 troops, and ordered me to rush to support them and suppress Qin Ze in Anyang County."
As soon as he finished speaking, a general in the audience said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty, Qin Ze is moving so fast; it seems he has quite a few troops at his disposal."
Wu Kui nodded and said with a faint smile, "That's natural."
"But what does it matter? Anyang County also has troops. The Emperor of Da Gan said that it can hold out for about a month without any problem. After I get there, I will order them to fight Qin Ze with me."
"To be honest, even if we were to face Qin Ze one-on-one, he wouldn't be a match for us."
"When it comes to head-on combat, no one is more capable than us barbarians!"
At this point, Wu Kui snorted coldly again and continued:
"Hmph, when Father fought Qin Haotian, he fell for three of Qin Haotian's tricks, which led to the defeat of our barbarian army. If they had fought us head-on back then, the world would probably have changed hands long ago."
Upon hearing this, everyone lowered their heads and sighed inwardly.
Some of them had experienced the battle against the Crimson Flame Army before. At that time, the barbarian forces outnumbered the Crimson Flame Army, and victory seemed assured.
But Qin Haotian was cunning and used a series of tricks, and they fell for them one after another. They were completely outmaneuvered by his elaborate schemes and were eventually defeated.
That's why it has been in a slump for many years.
But now, with the passage of time and years of recuperation, the barbarians have finally recovered.
However, this large-scale undertaking has inadvertently led to internal strife and frequent disturbances in recent years.
"Forget it, there's no use in bringing up these old stories. Now we have a strong army, and I have eight of you valiant generals."
"This time, we will not lose!"
"I will win everything!" Wu Kui said resolutely, clenching his fists.
The eight people below the stage tensed up and quickly replied, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
Wu Kui nodded and continued, "From this day forward, speed up our journey and get to Anyang County as soon as possible to suppress Qin Ze!"
"Hmph, once we deal with him, we'll march into Beiliang in style. Although Beiliang is relatively barren, the Beiku Grassland is extremely fertile. We'll let the people of Beiliang graze their horses there."
"After a few more years, when our army is strong and well-equipped..." As he said this, Wu Kui narrowed his eyes, his gaze becoming increasingly fierce.
"In the future, I will surely retaliate in kind. When I raise troops in both the north and south at the same time, this world will surely fall into my hands!"
Wu Kui then looked at the eight generals below the stage and continued:
"From now on, you will all be meritorious subjects of my barbarian tribe. When I don the imperial robe, you will also be granted official titles and ranks, and enjoy wealth and honor for generations to come! You will enjoy endless glory!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the eight people below the stage were excited and immediately knelt down, clasped their hands in greeting, and said:
"Yes, Your Majesty! I am willing to serve you to the death! I will help Your Majesty achieve your grand ambitions and conquer the world!"
Wu Kui stood up, strode over to the eight men, and said in a deep voice:
