Ever since Jiang Tian beheaded the young Grand Secretary Pang De, the Grand Secretary Pang Hao has secretly mobilized the rebel army to prepare to attack the three cities of Longcheng.
With Han Xin and Xiang Yu at Longcheng, and Dian Wei guarding the Great Wall, Jiang Tian has absolutely nothing to worry about.
But those rebels were despicable and shameless, capable of using any kind of underhanded trick.
Jiang Tian was genuinely afraid that the rebel army would capture the three cities of Longcheng.
"promise……"
Jiang Tian opened the system space.
Li Cunxiao's personal weapons, equipment, and warhorse have already appeared in the space.
Jiang Tian took out all of Li Cunxiao's weapons, equipment, and warhorse and placed them in front of Li Cunxiao.
When Li Cunxiao saw the Yuwang Spear, his eyes lit up.
This Yuwang Spear is said to be the weapon of Yu the Great, and it is said that Li Cunxiao's Yuwang Spear weighs 800 jin.
Li Cunxiao's warhorse was a black Qilin.
This black unicorn is comparable to Xiang Yu's legendary black steed, the Overlord of Western Chu.
"Thank you for the weapons and warhorses, my lord."
"Alright, come back to Dragon City with me."
Jiang Tian gave Li Guang some instructions.
Princess Xue'er felt a pang of reluctance upon hearing that Jiang Tian was leaving first.
"Xue'er, don't worry," Jiang Tian smiled slightly. "I killed Pang De, so the Grand Secretary will definitely not let me off easily. I'll go back to Longcheng to handle my affairs first, and then I'll come back to pick you up."
Princess Xue'er nodded.
Without Jiang Tian, Princess Xue'er would still be among the Xiongnu.
Qin Hongyu was also reluctant to part: "Dalang, I want to go with you."
Jiang Tian glanced at Princess Xue'er, then at Princess Hanxiang: "These women need your care. After we return to Dragon City, we can be intimate again."
The group mounted their horses and headed straight for the majestic Great Wall.
A group of more than a dozen people rode their horses at full speed, and it took them two days to reach the majestic Great Wall.
The gates of the Great Wall at the pass were tightly closed.
On the city wall, the defending soldiers stood solemnly, their battle flags fluttering in the wind.
The Great Wall stands majestically atop the high mountains, still appearing as grand and imposing as ever.
Upon seeing Jiang Tian's dozen or so cavalrymen charging towards them, a series of war drums sounded from the city tower.
Several heavy crossbows were aimed at Jiang Tian and his group.
Upon seeing this, Li Cunxiao flew into a rage: "My lord, rest assured, lead me forward to smash open the city gate and welcome you into the city."
Li Cunxiao brandished the Yuwang Spear and was about to charge forward.
"Li Cunxiao, don't get excited. The guards on the city wall are all my men." Jiang Tian spurred his horse and galloped all the way to the foot of the Great Wall.
Li Cunxiao led 18 cavalrymen closely behind.
"Open the city gates! Where is your General Dian Wei?" Jiang Tian shouted from the city wall.
The soldiers guarding the city wall all recognized Jiang Tian.
They opened the city gates one after another.
Jiang Tian rushed straight in.
"My lord, General Han sent General Dian to Longcheng to discuss important matters, but General Dian has not yet returned."
Upon hearing that Dian Wei had already gone to Longcheng, Jiang Tian realized that the rebel army had arrived in Longcheng.
"If we guard the Great Wall well, General Li Guang and General Huo Qubing will arrive soon, bringing back millions of cattle and sheep and nearly 100,000 Xiongnu prisoners of war."
"When the time comes, you should send people to help Generals Li Guang and Huo Qubing deliver all these things to Feihu City."
"promise……"
"Do you have enough food, meat, and wine to defend the Great Wall?"
The generals guarding the city remained silent.
I estimate that their food and drink will be almost gone in the next couple of days.
Jiang Tian opened the system ranch.
To his surprise, after not checking the system ranch and farm for so many days, the scale of the system ranch and farm had reached 5,000 mu.
With these 5,000 acres of farms and pastures, plus daily harvesting and daily slaughtering.
The warehouse was piled high with grain, and also with all kinds of meat.
"Take me to the warehouse." These meats won't spoil in the system space, but they take up space and are useless.
These grains and meats must be given to the soldiers guarding the frontier.
General Da Yong led Jiang Tian to the warehouse at the Great Wall.
We arrived at the warehouse.
Jiang Tian opened the system warehouse and took out 100,000 jin of beef and mutton and 100,000 jin of rice and flour.
He put all of these things in the city's warehouse.
After finishing all this, Jiang Tian walked out of the warehouse.
When Yu Dayong and his group entered the warehouse, they were overjoyed to see the mountain of meat piled up there.
"Thank you, my lord."
"My lord, I'll have someone start a fire and cook for you right now. After you've eaten, I'll have someone escort you back to Dragon City." Yu Dayong's face lit up with joy.
"No need, I'll go back to Longcheng now." Jiang Tian didn't want to delay for a moment, as he didn't know what the situation was like in Longcheng.
A dozen or so men galloped away on horseback, drinking and eating meat.
Jiang Tian gave each of them five jin of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor) and a 20-jin roasted whole lamb.
Li Cunxiao and his ilk were exceptionally capable and incredibly brave.
Their appetites are also astonishing.
Five catties of wine and a whole roasted lamb are only enough for them for one day.
That evening, Jiang Tian arrived in Longcheng with his men.
Han Xin, along with Xiang Yu and Dian Wei, went out of the city to greet them.
"We pay our respects to our lord," the crowd quickly knelt on the ground.
"Get up, all of you. When I came to Longcheng, I saw a lot of rebels along the way." Jiang Tie pointed to Peach Blossom Village in the distance. "Dian Wei, are the people of Peach Blossom Village safe now?"
Upon hearing this, Dian Wei patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I have already brought your two ladies back."
"Han Xin, how many rebels are there?"
