Before Lü Tu could explain, he heard Samhe's furious roar from behind: "Lü Tu, you have offended the gods by disturbing the golden statue used for sacrificial rites. You will be punished and die without a burial place!"
Lu Tu gave Liu Hong a look, and Liu Hong elbowed him in the abdomen, interrupting him from saying anything more.
"Your gods are nothing but bullshit. How many soldiers does he have, I ask you? If you dare come any closer, I'll chop you up and mince you into meat sauce!"
When the villagers first heard that it was the golden statue used for sacrificial rites, they were instinctively a little afraid. However, when they heard Lu Tu's words, which could only be described as utterly despicable, they couldn't help but smile knowingly and throw all their fear of the gods to the winds.
Lu Tu waved his hand and said, "Everyone enter the city. All the spoils you plunder are yours, including the women!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers present cheered in unison. If Lü Tu hadn't given the order beforehand, they probably would have shouted "Long live Lü Tu!"
The thousands of villagers present had nothing better to do than go up and help out, even if it was just to become a familiar face and get a share of the meat.
At this moment, Xiao Zhong looked at the man on Liu Hong's horse and asked, "My lord, who is this person?"
"Semhe, the chief of the Seri tribe!"
"Hiss!" Upon hearing this, the villagers who were still busy were also stunned, just like Xiao Zhong.
For so many years, all everyone has heard is the repeated defeats of the six border towns, and even the fact that the commanders of each town were bullied by the Wuhuan tribes.
I never imagined that one day I would be able to capture the chief of a tribe in the Wuhuan tribe, and capture him alive. The difficulty and achievement involved are just too exaggerated to imagine!
Xiao Zhong's eyes lit up. He immediately understood the great opportunity it contained and hurriedly cupped his hands, saying, "My lord, what a pity! You have truly performed a great service!"
Although Xiao Zhong's words were exaggerated, they were also reasonable. The Wuhuan were a united group of many tribes, and the chief of the Saili tribe was equivalent to a king or marquis in the Great Yu Dynasty.
Lu Tu waved his hand: "Liu Hong, take him away and have him treated properly. Don't let him die!"
"Yes, sir!"
There was no need to give too many instructions. Liu Hong was always cautious in his actions. If Nie Yun were to go, there was a risk that Nie Yun might not be able to resist killing Sam.
"My lord, you should go and rest first, so as not to worry the ladies."
Lu Tu nodded: "Then I'll leave it to Mr. Xiao."
"My lord, please."
Lu Tu had already spotted Wang Miaoling, Jiang Wanyu, Cuiguo, and Lingdang from a distance, all looking at him with excited expressions.
He rode forward and extended his hands to Wang Miaoling and Jiang Wanyu on the left and right respectively. Although the two did not know what Lü Tu meant, they still very readily reached out and grabbed his hands.
With a strong lift, Lu Tu placed the two women on Xiao Hei's back, one in front and one behind. It was fortunate that it was Xiao Hei; after running such a long distance, it still had energy left. Any other warhorse might have been exhausted long ago.
Wang Miaoling reached out from behind Lü Tu and wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her head happily against his back: "My sisters are in confinement after childbirth, so it was just me and Sister Wanyu who came to pick you up."
With one hand holding Wang Miaoling and the other holding Jiang Wanyu, Lü Tu slowly left amidst the envious gazes of the many villagers.
"Your Excellency and Madam are so happy!"
"Yes, yes, it's so enviable. I also want to be pampered like that by adults."
"Look at your pockmarked face. You're like a toad trying to play with a frog. You're ugly, but you have all sorts of wild ideas."
Lu Tu was now immune to these words, and simply smiled and shook his head, letting them say whatever they wanted. After all, today was a happy day.
As for the city's defenses, Xiao Zhong will take care of the arrangements; he doesn't need to worry about it.
Once home, Lü Tu, Song Yuxi, and Nangong Huiyu spent a long time whispering sweet nothings to each other.
"My lord, it's good to see you back. This battle will surely shock the world!"
Nangong Huiyu rarely showed her gentle side because she found a wound on Lü Tu's arm. Although it wasn't too serious, women in their postpartum period are often very caring due to the increase in estrogen in their bodies.
"My lord, does it hurt?"
Lu Tu kissed each of them on the cheek: "I'm not a sissy, what pain is this? I didn't even feel it."
But the next second, Nangong Huiyu poked a finger into Lü Tu's wound, causing Lü Tu to gasp involuntarily.
Nangong Huiyu laughed mischievously, "Husband, you're bragging. You said it didn't hurt."
Lu Tu grabbed Nangong Huiyu and pulled her into his arms. Without even lifting her skirt, he slapped her on her shapely bottom: "I'll teach you to be naughty!"
The slap wasn't forceful at all, but Nangong Huiyu found it very enjoyable, since Lü Tu hadn't touched her in a long time.
As the crisp sound rang out, Nangong Huiyu let out a soft moan, then turned her head with seductive eyes to gaze into Lü Tu's eyes: "Husband, don't... don't stop."
Song Yuxi stepped forward and stopped them, saying, "No! First, Xiaoyu, you are still in your postpartum period, and second, your husband has just returned from a battle. At this time, the most important thing is for him to rest."
Seeing this, Lü Tu had no choice but to put her down: "Did you hear that? I think Yu Xi is right."
Nangong Huiyu wasn't ungrateful; she naturally understood the reasoning. At this moment, she obediently stood behind Song Yuxi and said, "Sister is right."
Cuiguo and the others brought hot water and helped Lü Tu remove his armor before soaking in the wooden tub.
The exhilarating feeling made Lü Tu exclaim, "Whew, that's awesome!"
Cuiguo and the bell-ringing maidservant very consciously left the room, handing over the main battlefield to Wang Miaoling and Jiang Wanyu.
After all, only the two of them could still get wet, and Wang Miaoling and her companion were already used to it.
First, they used soap to wash away Lü Tu's fatigue, and then they applied allicin to Lü Tu's wounds.
Jiang Wanyu's movements were very gentle, especially her fingertips, which were particularly tender. When she touched Lü Tu's skin, it instantly raised goosebumps.
Wang Miaoling, who was wiping water off Lü Tu's body, couldn't help but cover her mouth in surprise: "Husband, aren't you tired at all?"
Even Song Yuxi shook her head and smiled bitterly when she saw this: "Husband, you really are vigorous and energetic. Never mind, Wanyu and Miaoling, you two help your husband."
As Lü Tu's first wife, Song Yuxi knew Lü Tu best. She knew that if Lü Tu couldn't get released in this situation, he wouldn't sleep at all, which would actually hinder his rest.
The two women were already worried about Lü Tu, but now that they saw him return, their worries turned into tenderness.
"Husband, we will serve you."
The exhaustion from a day and night of fighting vanished instantly upon feeling that tender affection.
Lu Tu wouldn't resist. After killing too many people, he needed to spend time with several women to release all the pressure in his heart. Otherwise, if he accumulated it for too long, he would have emotional problems.
