"Only five or six thousand people have come?" Li Yuanba shook his head.
“These five or six thousand men are not enough; they’re just a drop in the ocean.”
"This time, we'll make sure they don't leave alive."
"Even if the enemy sends fifty or sixty thousand men, we are not afraid."
Soon, the bugle sounded.
Everyone took their bowls to ladle out the mutton soup.
Li Yuanba never used a bowl to eat; he always used a wooden basin.
Two cooks ladled out a large bowl of soup.
The mutton soup was just sprinkled with a generous amount of chopped green onions and cilantro.
The chopped scallions and cilantro were added to the steaming mutton soup, filling the air with a wonderful aroma.
The two cooks carried the large pot of mutton soup to Li Yuanba.
There were two lamb legs floating in the mutton soup.
It's clear that the lamb leg meat in that mutton soup was stewed until very tender.
"General, have some mutton soup first to warm yourself up. The roasted lamb leg will be here soon."
Li Yuanba took the large bowl of mutton soup, brought it to his lips, and blew on it.
Immediately afterwards, he took a big gulp.
"Not bad, this mutton soup is very well made today, the mutton flavor is very rich." Li Yuanba put down the wooden basin, grabbed a lamb leg from the mutton soup, and in just a few bites he ate the tender mutton meat off the leg.
"Hurry up and eat!" a soldier shouted from the side.
"What's the rush?" Li Yuanba calmly picked up another lamb leg. "By the time their cavalry reach us, their horses will be exhausted, and they'll need to rest for a while before launching their attack."
"When the time comes, I'll use my cannon to give them a taste of their own medicine."
"promise……"
Soon, the other lamb leg in Li Yuanba's hand was also completely devoured.
Two cooks then brought in a whole roasted lamb.
This whole roasted lamb is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside; you can tell it tastes great just by looking at it.
"General, did you enjoy the mutton soup?"
"It's alright..." Li Yuanba put down the wooden basin. "I don't know why, but the mutton you roasted tastes completely different from the mutton my lord gave me."
The whole roasted lamb that Jiang Tian gave to Li Yuanba was all redeemed from the system shop.
This lamb is not only of high quality, but it is also roasted until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the aroma alone is enough to make your mouth water.
"Did you sprinkle cumin powder and chili powder on it?"
The two cooks nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, General, we've already prepared it according to your taste, with cumin powder and chili powder."
Li Yuanba took a bite.
The taste is quite good.
Although it didn't taste like the whole roasted lamb that Jiang Tian redeemed from the system shop, it was already seven or eight parts similar.
Seeing Li Yuanba nod in satisfaction, the two cooks breathed a long sigh of relief.
Although Li Yuanba told everyone to eat slowly and without worry.
But these people still ate very quickly.
Everyone knew that 5,000 cavalrymen had arrived.
From last night to the next morning, they have killed more than 10,000 people.
However, most of these 10,000-plus people were infantrymen.
They have not yet officially engaged in combat with the enemy's cavalry.
20 minutes later.
Li Yuanba held a telescope and looked into the distance.
Many small black dots have already appeared between the sky and the earth in the distance.
As the number of small black dots increases.
Li Yuanba was able to clearly see that the enemy was charging from three directions.
The three roads, left, middle, and right, are 20 li apart.
"What is that thing?" Li Yuanba was puzzled. He looked at the enemy cavalry and saw that what they were riding were not horses at all.
Several scout cavalrymen also shaded their eyes with their hands and looked over.
They discovered that both the cavalry on the left and right were riding horses.
However, only half of the cavalry in the middle were riding horses; the other half were probably camels.
"General Li and his men were riding camels."
Camels are far slower than warhorses.
However, camels are very durable.
Camels can run continuously for two or three hours at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour.
Upon seeing this, Li Yuanba immediately became interested.
"I wonder if this camel meat is delicious?" Li Yuanba placed the half-eaten roasted whole lamb beside him.
"They say the two humps of a camel taste delicious," the two cooks said, leaning closer.
"Don't worry, General, we'll roast a camel for you today."
The camel was slightly larger than a horse. Li Yuanba looked at the camel and said, "Today I can eat at least two camels."
"Have you all finished eating?" Li Yuanba stood up.
"We're done eating," everyone answered in unison.
"This time, we must not let any cavalrymen escape." Li Yuanba walked up to the Tsar Cannon.
"General, should we launch a preemptive strike?"
"Take the initiative my ass."
"They're coming to their deaths, let's wipe them out." After saying this, Li Yuanba looked west through his binoculars.
"I wonder where our lord's main force has gone."
"Everyone, prepare for battle."
The crowd immediately dispersed.
With a whoosh, everyone mounted their horses in unison.
They carried their two-meter-long war sabers on their backs.
Everyone was holding a gun.
The two repeating muskets were placed in the middle of the road.
The enemy cavalry was getting closer and closer.
But no one felt nervous.
In their view, annihilating the other side was only a matter of time.
The repeating musket was already loaded with bullets.
They only need to wait for the other party to come over before they can quickly take their life.
