Chapter 17: Kicking Away the Love-Obsessed, Wang Baochuan Swears Never to Dig for Wild Vegetables Again 17



"Master, I'm back! Hahaha, I'm now a great general commanding hundreds of troops! Hahaha!" Xiaobai's triumphant laughter entered Mo Qian's mind.

Three years later, when Xiao Bai first entered the army, he started as a private. Later, during the battle against the Western Liang Kingdom, he was quickly promoted due to his bravery.

Later, when the old general was in critical condition, he acted swiftly and decisively, disregarding the dozens of enemy soldiers surrounding him, and at the critical moment, he stepped forward to save the old general, turning the tide of the battle.

As a result, Xiao Bai caught the eye of the senior officers in the military camp, was appreciated and given important responsibilities, and was allowed to stay and serve by the old general's side.

Later, in many battles, they were able to discover the enemy's strengths and weaknesses in advance, allowing our army to pursue their victory and advance with unstoppable momentum!

Furthermore, when the enemy laid an ambush, he stepped forward to advise the old general to retreat and make plans later, thus avoiding falling into the enemy's trap.

By ensuring the safe return of 50,000 soldiers to their camp, Xiao Bai was highly respected among the million-strong army!

During the subsequent battles, the old general, due to his advanced age and a sudden relapse of his old illness, had to retire. He then introduced Mo Bai, who later became known as Xiao Bai, to the emperor.

As a result, Xiao Bai was appointed by the emperor as the Mighty General! He commanded the three armies and fought on the battlefield!

This also marked the beginning of Xiaobai's glorious conquest.

They defeated the Western Liang Kingdom one after another. If it weren't for the fact that the Western Liang Kingdom's ruler had finally gathered the power of all the military generals in the country, they wouldn't have been able to fight Xiao Bai for long.

However, in the end, it was unstoppable, and they finally submitted a letter of surrender to the emperor in a sorry state!

"Yes, yes, Xiao Bai is the best! Now everyone in the city is praising our dynasty for having an invincible war god who is the bravest in the army! Mo Bai!" Mo Qian teased, raising her eyebrows.

"It's alright, it's all just nonsense from those people, haha, it's just so-so, haha." Xiaobai replied shyly when she heard Mo Qian praise her.

"Alright, stop being modest, I know you're amazing!" Mo Qian's lips twitched.

"Haha, Master, I will lead all the soldiers into the city in three days. Master, you must come to see me!"

"Alright, alright, I'll go. I'll go and admire the magnificence of our War God Mo Bai!" Mo Qian said with a doting expression, her tone tinged with helplessness.

Even without Xiaobai saying it, she would have gone herself. After all, Xiaobai couldn't persevere to the end in that previous small world, couldn't finish the war and become a general. Even if Xiaobai didn't say it, Moqian knew that it was one of Xiaobai's regrets!

Now, in this small world, Xiao Bai has become a great general commanding three armies through his own efforts! It's also a way of making up for regrets!

Of course I had to go and witness Xiaobai's glorious moment!

Three days later,

Mo Qian sat in a pavilion, where she could see Xiao Bai leading his soldiers into the capital from outside the city.

The main streets of the capital were bustling with pedestrians, a lively scene with crowds of people. There seemed to be far more people on the streets today than usual.

Pedestrians, kicking up fine dust, crowded towards the city gate. The tall buildings along the street were filled with all sorts of people, all eager to catch a glimpse of the renowned war god and the majestic triumphant return of his army.

Compared to the noisy inns and restaurants, the quiet and elegant teahouses are more popular. There are only a few conversations and laughter, and occasionally scholars and literati compose poems and paint here, making it even more peaceful.

"Hey? Have you heard? War God Mo Bai has returned in triumph!"

"Hey! Who in the whole capital doesn't know this? In just three short years, they've utterly defeated the Western Liang Kingdom!"

"General Mo is truly amazing, worthy of being called the God of War!"

"Hey! I heard that today is the day General Mo returns to the capital in triumph!"

"That's right, the streets are packed with people, all waiting to catch a glimpse of the God of War, Mo Bai."

"Hey, why don't we go take a look? I've never seen what the God of War, Mo Bai, looks like."

"You? You want to see what the God of War looks like? You're not worthy!"

"What? You've only seen it? You haven't either, so what are you pretending for!"

"Yeah, I want to see too, wanna come?"

"Come on, come on, I've never seen it before either."

"Let's go," "Let's go."

All loiterers inside and outside the city gates had been cleared out by the city's imperial guards. As the approaching army slowly stepped into the city gates, the onlookers who had taken good positions couldn't help but hold their breath.

All that remained were the clatter of warhorses on the ground and the rhythmic stomping of infantry.

Cavalry led the way, followed by infantry. Horse hooves and men's legs trampled each other, and for a moment, dust swirled around the city gate, blurring the vision and seemingly proving that this triumphant army had come from the western border.

General Mo, who was in charge of the army, was at the head of the army, followed closely by other generals. Behind the generals were two blood-red flags, one with the character "Huang" (Emperor) on it and the other with the character "Mo" (Commander) on it.

Two large flags were followed by four or five smaller flags, fluttering in the wind and displaying the might of the three armies.

A white horse, elegant yet proud, carries a slightly thin body clad in bright silver armor, draped in a silver-white battle robe, and wearing a helmet covered in frost and gleaming with the sun, with a green tassel hanging from the back of its head.

As they walked along the road, the young general sensed a familiar gaze and looked up.

Upon seeing that it was Mo Qian, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and his eyebrows rose slightly. Then, he looked ahead and, along with the soldiers, passed through pavilions and towers, heading towards the palace gate.

——————

"Haha, haha, our dynasty is at its peak, producing outstanding talents. This young general is truly extraordinary, worthy of being called the God of War who swept through the Western Liang Kingdom's army!"

After returning from the triumphant banquet held for the Great General in the palace, Prime Minister Wang held the young General Mo Bai, the God of War, in high esteem.
