"You ran into Qin Ze? How could that be...."
Before he could finish speaking, Wu Shuang interrupted, "You encountered Qin Ze? You... didn't fight?" He was full of doubt.
Not only him, but everyone in the tent looked surprised at this moment.
Even Wu Kui couldn't help but frown, his mind filled with a hundred questions.
If they had encountered Qin Ze at Yanluo Mountain, a fight would have been inevitable. But this time, Shan Yi returned without losing a single soldier!
Facing the questioning looks from the crowd, Shan Yi said in a deep voice:
"After we rounded the main mountain, we came to an open area where I met Qin Ze and his troops."
"How many people!" Wu Kui leaned forward and asked.
"Not many. Judging from the camps that have been set up, there are probably only tens of thousands of people."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Rui raised his hammer and laughed loudly:
"Tens of thousands! Haha! Great! That's wonderful! With so few people, it's a piece of cake! Your Majesty, I think we can just charge in tonight!"
Wu Shuang glared at him and scolded, "You're too narrow-minded! Shut your mouth and listen to the King's arrangements!"
After being reprimanded, Wu Rui lowered his head and remained silent.
At this moment, Shan Yi said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, I suddenly ran into them with my men, but they did not fight me. Instead, they had a talk with me."
After he finished speaking, everyone perked up their ears, and their expressions became increasingly serious.
Shan Yi led a small force, and logically, upon seeing Qin Ze, Qin Ze would have naturally come to encircle and annihilate him—that would have been the normal course of events. But now...
This is truly astonishing.
Wu Kui, his face grim, asked, "What did Qin Ze say?"
Dan Yi's face was somber, and he said in a deep voice:
"Qin Ze told us to withdraw our troops and return to the southern barbarian lands."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked astonished, while Wu Rui's face turned red. He moved his mouth as if to speak, but upon seeing his second uncle beside him, he swallowed his words back.
But then Wu Shuang sneered, "Hmph, telling us to go back! What do you mean? Are you trying to persuade us to leave?"
"Qin Ze, are you trying to persuade us to go back, or are you afraid of us?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Rui saw that his second uncle had spoken, and he could no longer hold back. He immediately shouted angrily:
"Bullshit!"
"We traveled all the way from the southern barbarian lands to get here, and he sent us back with just a few tens of thousands of soldiers!"
"How dare he say such a thing!"
"If someone says something like that in front of me, I'll smash their mouth in half with a hammer!"
Bai Miao rested his chin on his hand, a cold smile appearing on his handsome face:
"Hmph, he wants to subdue the enemy without fighting."
Wu Kui kept a stern face, his gaze fixed on Shan Yi's face.
After visiting Yanluo Mountain, he could sense that the veteran had changed.
His face was extremely gloomy.
Wu Kui looked at Shan Yi and said:
"You encountered Qin Ze, and Qin Ze, seeing that your forces were outnumbered, didn't attack you, just to make us retreat?"
Where does his confidence come from?
While the generals were still discussing, Shan Yi said in a deep voice:
"Qin Ze said that he has buried a million soldiers in Yanluo Mountain!"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the tent froze, falling silent.
Wu Kui's expression was solemn, and his pair of tiger-like eyes were gloomy and menacing.
"Yanluo Mountain has a million soldiers?"
