Chapter 56: It was the same beating, but at least he saved face
Perhaps, I can leave the palace and gain some experience under the pretext of looking for my sister?
Zhou Yu shook his head. The idea was just an idea. To truly realize it, he had to arrange everything properly. The thought gave him a headache.
The King of Wei has been quiet recently, so it has become difficult for him to find fault with him.
Li Dehai stole a glance at the emperor's face and spoke hesitantly, "Your Majesty, Concubine Wei has sent people to ask several times where Your Majesty will have lunch. If you haven't decided yet, she has prepared a few local dishes for Your Majesty. Please dine with us."
Concubine Wei, the daughter of General Wei, was the one who, along with her father, put pressure on him, saying that Bai Zongren had his own army and was close to other vassal kings. That's why he...
Zhou Yu rubbed his eyebrows. Having many wives and concubines is also a troublesome thing. Each of them represents a force, and none of them can be offended easily.
Sometimes he really envied his cousin Nangong Min who was alone and free to roam the world.
"Forget it, let's go to her place!"
"twitter!"
Zhao Yuntian told Nangong Min his purpose only after he had eaten and drunk his fill.
"The Emperor received news that Princess Yu had arrived in Qianzhou, but half a month ago, we chased her to Qianzhou but lost track of her.
The Emperor was extremely anxious and ordered us to ensure Princess Yu's safety and to invite her back to the palace after we found her."
"Since Captain Zhao has the Emperor's order, I cannot try to persuade him to stay. Please, please!"
Zhao Yuntian choked. He didn't expect Nangong Min to dislike him so much.
"Major General, please prepare water and food for us. We will leave immediately."
He was so proud and angry that he spoke with difficulty, his face showing the embarrassment of asking for help.
There was no way out. He missed the supply route to the town because he was in a hurry. Later, he walked higher and higher in the mountains and didn't even see any houses.
Finally, they met a mountain family and took away all the ten pounds of sweet potatoes from their home, which allowed them to make it to the military camp.
"Of course, but every grain of food in the barracks has to be reported. Captain Zhao can only borrow it. Just write a receipt and send it along with the military rations."
Nangong Min looked like he was easy to talk to, but every word he said was awkward.
Forced by the situation, Zhao Yuntian could only hold his breath and agree, "Okay!"
At this moment, there was a noise outside.
"What's going on?"
"I'll go out and take a look."
Shangguan Yu went out for a moment and then came back quickly, clasping his hands together and saying, "Major General, the sentry post has received an alarm. The Laotians are invading in large numbers and openly provoking our border defense camp."
"How many people are coming from the other side?"
"About five thousand."
Wow, they have found out the military strength in the camp and are well prepared.
"Go and have a look."
Nangong Min suddenly stood up and walked out, as if he had forgotten Zhao Yuntian's existence.
"Major General, I..."
"Captain Zhao, let's go and meet the enemy! They've already come to our doorstep. Aren't you a soldier? How can you turn a blind eye while they bully the Great Zhou?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in Nangong Min's eyes, as if he had determined that Zhao Yuntian was a coward.
Zhao Yuntian gritted his teeth secretly. This was not his responsibility. He just came here to ask for a drink of water!
If he wins, it has nothing to do with him, but if he loses, his life will be in danger. Who wants to be a sucker?
But he had to go even if he didn't want to because he was labeled as allowing others to bully the Zhou Dynasty.
Nangong Min heard the voice behind him catching up and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Those who are obsessed with profit, selfish and afraid of death are not even worthy of being soldiers.
If General Bai hadn't recommended him, he wouldn't even be able to become a captain.
Thinking of this, he casually asked, "Is Bai Li still going to the mountains for training today?"
"Replying to Major General, Bai Li is on leave today and has gone home."
Zhao Yuntian's body trembled. Was this the Bai Li he knew?
But before he could ask in detail, several people had already arrived at the school training ground.
All the soldiers on the field gathered and Captain Mu was deploying them.
"Major General, the Laotians have already sounded their drums three times. We must send troops quickly, otherwise they will think we are afraid of those barbarians."
As soon as Captain Mu saw Nangong Min, he felt relieved and quickly made way for him to stand in the middle.
The situation was urgent, so Nangong Min didn't waste any time and directly selected 4,000 soldiers and set off.
Of the remaining one thousand, a few hundred were on sentry duty around the area, and a few hundred stayed in the military camp.
Thousands of soldiers marched on the wide road of the village, with flags flying and their postures standing tall, looking very majestic.
Bai Li heard the noise and ran to the village entrance to see, oh, they are going to war!
She has never fought in an ancient war before. It would be so cool to be able to kill and beat people at will on the battlefield.
Her timid look was suddenly captured by a gaze, and then a majestic voice exploded above her head.
"Bai Li, return to the team and fight!"
"Yes, sir!"
Bai Li gave an awkward military salute, smiled like a fool, and quickly integrated into the army.
When Luo Yang and Bai Zongren chased her out, they could only see the back of her head hidden in the crowd.
"Hey, Captain! Wait for me!"
Luo Yang jumped up and chased after him.
Bai Zongren opened his mouth but said nothing in the end. He shook his head and sighed as he watched them walk away.
"Dad, don't worry, with my sister's current skills, she will be fine."
Bai Zongren glared at Shadaer unhappily, "Am I worried about her? I'm just praying that she doesn't get into trouble."
He spoke too forcefully and hurt his muscles. Bai Zongren rubbed his shoulders with a grimace.
The damn girl used her family as a training ground as soon as she came back. This time, he couldn't even withstand five of her moves.
Is there any girl who beats her father as soon as she sees him after not seeing him for a month?
It’s just the female devil Bai Li!
Bai Dalang had a swollen and purple face, and he looked at his father with a slit between his big eye bags: You have raised such a good daughter, she not only beats dad but also beats brother!
Bai Zongren felt instantly balanced as soon as he saw his face.
他闺女还是爱他的，都没揍他脸。
It was still a beating, but at least he was saved face.
When Bai Dalang returned home and saw his uncles and cousins, he had the same idea in his mind.
You see, there is a difference between close ones and distant ones. The girl still loves her family very much.
Bai Li, who "loves" his family very much, walked in the army, wishing he could jump three times and walk with the wind.
Her soldiers secretly glanced at her, and seeing her confident and bold look, they inexplicably got rid of their timidity and gained courage, and began to look forward to the battlefield they had never been to before.
Zhao Yuntian followed Nangong Min on horseback. After confirming that the Bai Li was the Bai Li he had broken off the engagement with, his face became so gloomy that it looked like tears were dripping from his eyes.
Why wasn't that bitch bullied on the road? Why was a criminal allowed to enter the military camp?
No, that's not the point.
The point is that she is just a woman. Even if she knows a few martial arts skills, how can she compare with the tough guys in the military camp?
I don't know what Nangong Min has done to make her the captain. Haha, she's probably going to cry when she gets to the real battlefield. Nangong Min, just wait for you to embarrass yourself in front of the soldiers!
For some reason, Nangong Min felt inexplicably at peace when he saw the female devil.
