Xue Qianyu chuckled lightly: "I felt years ago that you were no longer the Lu Zheng I knew!"
Lu Zheng: "...Hahahaha..."
He couldn't answer that question. He couldn't possibly tell Xue Qianyu that he had lived a previous life and that the purpose of his life in this life was different from that in his previous life.
So he could only laugh it off.
Xue Qianyu raised an eyebrow and pressed for an answer.
Although Lu Zheng has changed compared to before, as long as it doesn't affect their brotherly relationship, it's fine.
The two returned to the camp, instructed their men to prepare, and then went back to their tents to rest.
...
Meanwhile, Gu Xin and Cheng Huaijin, along with the Quicksand army and Ying Shiyuding, a wealthy merchant from Shifang City, captured another city in just two days.
The morale of the quicksand army was greatly boosted.
With Ying Shiyu Ding, a wealthy merchant who owns shops all over Yunhai, the problems of the people are solved very easily.
That day, Gu Xin and the others were discussing matters when Ying Shiyu rushed over: "Prince Ahai, Princess Xin Xin, I have some bad news, but I don't know if it's true or not."
Cheng Huaijin: "Tell me about it."
Ying Shiyu said, "When my servants were ordered to check the household registration, they heard from one of the families that he had returned a few days ago from Huanshi City, the next city we are going to attack. He said that King Yunhai had deployed a thousand wild oxen and the most elite soldiers of Yunhai in Huanshi City."
Cheng Huaijin was shocked: "A thousand bison? Where did he get them from?!"
Ying Shiyu shook his head: "This humble servant does not know. The person who leaked the information asked my servant to take him away from here, saying that King Yunhai planned to send those thousand wild oxen and elite soldiers to attack this place. Prince Ahai should know that Yunhai's conquest is different from Liusha's conquest. Yunhai never considers the lives of the people, only the final victory or defeat of the war."
Cheng Huaijin nodded: "Okay, you go down first. We'll discuss it here and come back to you when we have a result. Go find Mo Fei and have him take some men with you to appease the people in the city."
Ying Shiyu Ding has stepped down.
Gu Xin had seen the wild buffaloes of the west; they were extremely lethal, far more so than the draft cattle raised by the Great Zhou.
The bison in the west went berserk, and even several warriors could not subdue them.
But where did the Cloud Sea King find so many?
Wild buffalo, as the name suggests, are wild and not domesticated. Even if the Cloud Sea King finds them, how will he control them?
Both siblings found it somewhat difficult.
After listening to their explanation of the bison, Gu Hui asked, "Xin Xin, the poison you made is effective on humans, so it must be effective on animals as well. Why don't we give them something before they attack?"
Gu Xin shook her head: "Big sister, this time I mostly made poisonous smoke, which is inhaled. I ate very little. Moreover, if the drug's effect is insufficient, the bison will become even more frenzied, and then both their people and our people will suffer heavy casualties."
Princess Jinghe said, "Xinxin, do you have anything that makes people and animals not want to get close to it when they smell it?"
Gu Xin's eyes lit up: "Sister Zhen, you mean we'll smear this stuff on our bodies and then let the bison smell the poisonous fumes?"
Princess Jinghe nodded: "That's right! You and Prince Ahai must be planning to send someone to spy on Huanshi City at night, right? Regardless of whether there are any wild buffaloes like Shi Yuding mentioned, we'll apply them to them. If there are, we'll take the opportunity to let those beasts smell the poisonous smoke; if not, we'll still find out about Huanshi City and kill a few of them while we're at it!"
