The next moment, the vines that were scattered haphazardly in the courtyard seemed to have eyes, and they began to entangle the soldiers.
Before they could react, the swords and knives in the courtyard, driven by mechanisms, began to slash at the soldiers like madmen.
At the same time, all the crossbows fired wildly at the people inside the stone wall.
In the blink of an eye, no more than five members of that small team were able to stand up.
Lin Xiuyan said to the guards, "Now it's your turn to perform."
Wu Ge immediately led his guards out and killed all the soldiers.
Throughout the entire process, none of them were injured.
Wu Ge exclaimed excitedly, "The Crown Princess is amazing! Her plans are absolutely flawless!"
Lin Xiuyan did not show any smugness after winning this small battle; on the contrary, her expression was somewhat solemn.
She said calmly, "They came too cautiously, wasting a lot of our time."
Wu Ge: "..."
He was at a loss for words. She had killed the entire Xuan-class squad without lifting a finger, and even complained that they were dying too slowly.
That's absolutely unreasonable!
Lin Xiuyan said to them, "Take away all their weapons immediately, and then strip them of all their clothes."
Wu Ge: "..."
He knows how to take a weapon, but he doesn't understand how to strip someone's clothes off!
Lin Xiuyan asked him, "Is there a problem?"
Wu Ge coughed lightly and said somewhat tactfully, "There's no major problem, it's just that although they are all corpses, they are still men after all."
"The Crown Princess stripped them naked, which might still be a bit of an eyesore."
Lin Xiuyan thought he made sense, so she said, "Then let's leave them all a pair of underpants."
Wu Ge: "..."
So she really did want to strip all the soldiers' underwear off?
Seeing that he was standing still, Lin Xiuyan kicked him and said, "Get to work! Do you want me to dig it up myself?"
Wu Ge imagined her trying to rip off the man's clothes, and guessed that the moment she made a move, Ye Junfei would have to chop him up with a knife.
He hurriedly flattered her, saying, "How could I let the Crown Princess do such rough work? I'll do it myself."
After he finished speaking, he quickly stripped all the clothes off the corpses and threw them all down the slope to the side.
Dozens of white corpses were piled up there, and Wu Ge felt a slight pain in his eyes.
Over the years, he had carried out many missions with Ye Junfei, whether they were besieged or charged into battle, none of them were like Lin Xiuyan's style.
Normally, when faced with so many enemies, it's basically a fight to the death, and most of them would die.
But today, the things they did most while following Lin Xiuyan were cutting down trees, pulling up vines, and taking off people's clothes!
Most incredibly, they also annihilated all the enemies who attacked them. Apart from the injuries they sustained when they first went up the mountain, none of them were injured again.
This feeling is both exhilarating and somehow a little off.
Wu Ge couldn't quite put his finger on it.
They separated their weapons and clothes, piling them up into two small hills.
In addition to weapons and clothing, the guards also found several money pouches and personal belongings of the soldiers.
Because Prince Pingnan greatly favored Ye Jingxian, the Xuanzi Battalion was extremely well-equipped. The standard equipment for these soldiers was a large sword, a bow, and a basket of arrows.
They were all treated quite well, had some extra money, and the quality of their accessories was not bad.
Lin Xiuyan sighed, "These people are really kind; they're so eager to give us money and weapons. It's almost embarrassing."
Wu Ge: "..."
He glanced at the stark white corpse not far away, his feelings a mixture of emotions.
He asked softly, "What are the Crown Princess's plans next? With such a commotion here, the nearby squads will be arriving soon."
Lin Xiuyan smiled and said, "We weren't afraid of them when we didn't have enough equipment, so we're even less afraid of them now."
"I'm actually looking forward to their arrival. After all, they're here to deliver money and weapons; who could refuse that?"
Wu Ge: "..."
Looking at her carefree demeanor, if it weren't for the bloodstains in front of the cave and the piles of corpses nearby, he would probably have thought she was just visiting the mountains.
Lin Xiuyan added, "But you're right, with such a big commotion, they're coming soon, so we should make some preparations."
"Otherwise, we should still give basic respect to people who are about to die."
For her, the most dangerous time was when she was being chased by cavalry.
Once they were inside the woods and had time to prepare their weapons, she was no longer afraid.
When Lin Xiuyan died in her previous life, her skill in weaponry was already at the master level, and her expertise in this area was unparalleled in the world.
She wasn't just skilled at making one type of weapon; she was proficient in all kinds of weapons.
Furthermore, it can innovate based on ancient books and draw inferences from one instance to another.
What others consider ordinary can become powerful weapons in her hands.
Now that they have dozens of knives and bows, she can use them to kill even more people.
Lin Xiuyan led the guards to organize the weapons, improve the bows, and adjust their accuracy and range.
Ordinary bows and arrows, once in her hands, seemed to come alive.
There was nothing to do with the swords and knives. She glanced at the sun and instructed the guards to arrange themselves in a certain way.
They had just finished doing that when they heard another commotion outside; another small team had spotted them.
Lin Xiuyan smiled: "You've come at the perfect time."
She ordered the guards to draw all the bows and secure them with the newly made buckles, pointing them outwards. As soon as the small squads entered their range, they shot and killed most of them.
A few who escaped were shot dead by Wu Ge and several other guards.
This time it was much quicker and took less time than the last, but it was still a one-sided massacre.
As soon as they finished killing the people, Lin Xiuyan urged them to quickly pick up the weapons and strip them of their clothes.
Wu Ge: "..."
He really didn't understand why his princess consort was so persistent in tearing off other people's clothes.
The prince ordered them to listen to her, and today she led the group to kill nearly a hundred soldiers of the Xuanzi Camp without much effort.
Her abilities convinced them, and even if they had many doubts, they were willing to listen to her.
In less than a quarter of an hour, all the weapons and clothes were carried to the vicinity of the cave.
Down the hillside, dozens more white corpses, clad only in their underpants, lay scattered about.
Wu Ge glanced back, then immediately turned away, afraid that if he looked too much, he would go blind.
If Wu Dao is still alive, and they can escape this time, then he must share this story with Wu Dao in the future.
After he returned to the cave, Lin Xiuyan used a knife to cut up the clothes with a look of disgust on her face.
