Chapter 382: Uncle-Nephew Competition
"So when do you plan to leave?"
"Let the soldiers have a good rest tonight and leave Mocheng early tomorrow morning."
"What a pity, you can only eat so much meat for two meals."
Li Dalin suddenly added a sentence, and everyone then remembered the prey that Bai Li and Li Dalin had brought back before.
"I immediately ordered the pickled wild boar meat to be dried over a fire and given to them to eat on the road."
Li Shanglin thought and acted, and immediately ordered to prepare dry food and dried meat for Bai Zongren and others.
"Food is settled. Leave half of the supplies Nangong Zhao brought to the Li family army, and you can take the other half to Qianxi!"
"Does your army in Simon have enough food and supplies?"
“Don’t worry, we don’t have it, but Simon does.
We raided the mansions of several royal nobles, and the grain and treasures they found were greater than their national treasury!"
"Simon is rotten to the core, and his current fate is inevitable."
People sighed and said that the decline and prosperity of a country depends entirely on the generation of kings.
After the supplies were arranged, Bai Li asked Nangong Zhao to take his men and 5,000 female soldiers back to Beijing.
"Alright, after I return to Beijing to report, I will bring people to Simon to help my brother."
Nangong Zhao had no objection to this arrangement.
Speaking of Nangong Min, Bai Li felt a little guilty when he thought about him having to deal with Simon's big mess alone.
She didn't know when it started, but she got used to quitting her job and Nangong Min was responsible for cleaning up the mess for her.
The way they get along is tacit and unique, and they both enjoy it.
Nangong Zhao's mission was to escort the supplies, and now that the supplies have been handed over, his mission is completed.
He decided to follow General Bai's army out of the city early tomorrow morning and return to the capital.
After the war was discussed, Bai Li was undecided between following her father to Qianxi or returning to Simon.
There was no news from Simon. It must be that Nangong Min was busy with Simon's affairs and had no time to write a letter.
It would be a lie to say I'm not disappointed.
Bai Li remembered that when they left Simon, Nangong Min said affectionately that he would write her a letter every day without fail.
Bullshit!
She has been out for many days, but there is no sign of her.
It turns out that men’s words are lies. Whether in ancient times or in the end times, men’s words cannot be trusted.
Thinking of this, Bai Li felt a little unhappy.
She is not a person who cares about love. She just cares that he didn't do what he said. That's all.
The crisis in Qiannan has been resolved. At the bonfire party where the soldiers bid farewell to Bai Li and Bai Zongren, Bai Li ate meat and drank wine with big mouthfuls, and mingled with the soldiers under him.
"Li'er, you're a girl, drink less!"
Bai Zongren burped and snatched the wine glass from her. Bai Li looked up and saw that her father's cheeks were red and his tongue was tied, but he still dared to say anything to her.
It is true that the officials are allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to light lamps.
"Dad, you still have to march and fight tomorrow. Do you want me, the marshal, to remind you?"
Bai Zongren glared and acted like a father.
"I helped my father-in-law solve the crisis. I'm happy today. What's wrong with drinking a few sips?"
"I, I'm your father, how dare you interfere with me?"
Bai Li stood up, put one foot on the stool, clenched her hand joints until they cracked, and looked at her father with a half-smile.
“I am also very happy today because we defeated the Mongolian army.
When dad is happy, he wants to drink a few sips, and when I am happy, I want to compete with him.
Come to think of it, I haven't been able to hang out with Dad in a while. We really need to get closer!"
When Bai Zongren heard the gesture, his mind instantly became clear. He shook his head like a rattle, and his hands almost left afterimages.
"No, no, no! No need to gesture. Dad suddenly remembered that he had an appointment with your Uncle Ji and the others to discuss the marching route. Dad will go right away, right away!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Zongren put down his wine glass, clasped his fists, apologized to the generals, and left in a hurry.
You silly girl, you're really bringing up things that are not related to the topic.
Show off to her?
Does he dare?
Is he shameless to lose to his own daughter in front of so many soldiers?
Between saving face and drinking wine, he decisively chose saving face.
Forget it, marching and fighting is the most important thing. When the six kingdoms are conquered and the world is unified, he will drink for three days and three nights until he is drunk!
"Hey, girl, why is your father so afraid of you?"
Li Dalin staggered over to Bai Li, holding a bowl of wine.
He knew that those who talked about the general in the army would be punished with a military stick, but he couldn't resist his curiosity?
Curiosity killed the cat, he really wanted to know!
Bai Li looked back and saw that her cousin had come. Her biological uncle was also standing behind her, looking at her with shining eyes.
Bai Li...
Are all men so gossipy?
It seems that these two people often eavesdrop on other people's affairs, right?
"Want to know?"
The two nodded frantically, afraid that if they were even a second late she would refuse to speak.
Bai Li hooked his finger and the two heads moved closer.
"Wait until you have a fight with me, and you'll understand why my father is so scared!"
Li Dalin swallowed hard and stepped aside silently.
He had seen Bai Li's power and ruthlessness five miles away, so how could he compete with her?
Forget it. He is her cousin and cannot bully the weak. He will not bother with a little girl like her.
Li Mingwu had never seen Bai Li's martial arts. In his eyes, Bai Li might be able to deploy troops and lead them in battle, but his martial arts skills were at best above average.
How could he, a general who commanded an army of 50,000 and had experienced hundreds of battles, be afraid of her?
"Ali, your uncle has been drinking and his men are not careful. It would be bad if he hurts you. You were just joking just now."
After Li Mingwu said this, Bai Li became interested.
She really wanted to try out her uncle's martial arts skills. Her hands were itching like a cat scratching, and her warlike nature was stirring.
Amidst the jeers of the soldiers nearby, Bai Li, with a red face (red from drinking), said to him with a smile: "We are all ordinary people now, and there is no distinction between military positions.
Uncle, I just wanted to fight you. Are you afraid of me?"
Li Mingwu didn't believe how good Bai Li's martial arts were, but now that he was provoked by her, he could no longer hold back.
"Just compete, just don't cry later."
"Let me make it clear first, if you lose the fight, you can't go to your uncle to complain, right?"
"Don't worry, I definitely won't. I said the same thing to my uncle, and I hope you won't say the same thing."
Li Mingwu choked. What the little girl said...
How crazy!
Bai Li smiled like a pure and harmless girl next door.
"Yeah! General Li versus Marshal Bai, let's guess who wins and who loses?"
Life in the army was dull and it was rare to win a battle, so the Li family army enjoyed themselves tonight, eating, drinking and having fun.
Anyway, with their General Li leading the way, he won't care how they play.
As for General Li, he must have retired early, right?
Now that he has won the battle, he doesn't bother with these ruffians anymore!
Before the uncle and nephew started fighting, the soldiers under them had already placed their bets.
Of course, their bet is nothing more than whoever loses gets to drink a bowl of wine or eat a piece of meat.
