Captain Xu told everyone he met that he didn't want to argue with a little girl. He just couldn't stand a little girl who knew nothing but meddling in the affairs of the military camp.
This is General Luo's beloved daughter. If General Luo is led astray by a few words from this girl, the lives of thousands of soldiers and tens of thousands of civilians will be at stake!
Captain Xu said this to everyone he met, and he won the approval of many people.
Everyone likes Shen Ruoxi because of their love for General Luo. When it comes to their own interests, no one wants such an accident to happen.
However, this is just an appearance.
Three days later, Captain Xu found his fellow villager who had been following General Luo. They chatted for a while and then spoke casually.
"Has the princess visited General Luo in the past few days?"
The young soldier excitedly took a bite of the white flour bun Captain Xu gave him. As he chewed, he thought, "I did. The princess came to the camp three days ago. It seems she asked General Luo a few questions because of the bet you made with her last time."
Captain Xu sneered in his heart, it was exactly as he thought.
What abilities can a little girl have? She still has to rely on General Luo for help. I just hope General Luo doesn't get carried away by the so-called family affection.
"What questions did she ask General Luo?" Captain Xu continued to ask.
The young soldier scratched his head and said, "It seems he's asking General Luo if the barbarians knew that the Luo family army was guarding Beiyang Village, would they stop attacking?"
"What did General Luo say?"
"General Luo's answer is indeed true, but the Luo family army is short of manpower and cannot dispatch another small team to garrison Beiyang Village."
Upon hearing this, Captain Xu immediately felt relieved.
Then he burst into laughter: "What a whimsical girl! If the Luo family army had this much manpower, they would have defeated the barbarians long ago. Why would they defend a city to the death?"
"Besides asking this question, what else did the princess say or do?"
The young soldier thought for a moment and said, "The princess also asked General Luo for a lot of his uniforms."
Captain Xu sneered, "Mystifying."
"By the way, she also asked General Luo if he knew anyone with a water drop tattoo and a flame birthmark on his arm."
Captain Xu frowned slightly: "Why is she asking this?"
The young soldier shook his head and continued to eat his white flour bun. "I don't know either. General Luo just said he didn't know him."
Captain Xu touched his short stubble. He actually knew the person with the teardrop birthmark on his arm, but he would never tell that arrogant girl!
Two days passed, and Captain Xu didn't see Shen Ruoxi again. He thought that this girl must have given up because of the difficulty, and he felt even more disdainful.
Several people were sitting in the big tent analyzing the enemy situation when they heard the voice of the young soldier coming from outside the tent.
"General, we have reports from the front that the barbarian cavalry is heading towards Beiyang Village!"
General Luo immediately stood up and called the troops. "A few of you will lead the third squad and follow me to Beiyang Village to pursue them. The rest of you will stay here to guard the main camp to prevent the barbarians from making a feint to the east and attacking from the west."
"I want to go too!" Captain Xu stood up.
General Luo stopped and said, "Captain Xu, it's not your turn today."
Captain Xu curled his lips and said, "General, have you forgotten the bet I made with the princess? I must go today."
Luo Xuan looked back at Captain Xu and said, "Then follow me." Then he strode out of the tent.
"Prepare the horses!" Captain Xu raised his lips and immediately followed him out.
Luo Xuan led the Luo family army and galloped along the official road.
Captain Xu whipped his horse several times and finally caught up with Luo Xuan: "General Luo, congratulations."
"What brings you joy?" Luo Xuan had a cold face.
"Congratulations, General Luo! He will soon have a daughter from a wealthy family. You must give me some credit for this."
"Captain Xu, I advise you not to speak too soon."
"General Luo, you don't think that the princess really has a way to protect Beiyang Village from being invaded by the barbarian cavalry, right?"
Luo Xuan patted his chest and said, "I believe in my daughter!"
Captain Xu narrowed his eyes and was about to say something when he heard another report from the front: "General Luo, the front reports that the barbarian cavalry has left Beiyang Village."
"Left? So quickly!" Luo Xuan reined in his horse in surprise.
Captain Xu gloated, his words tinged with sarcasm, "Could it be that the Princess's plan is to get the people of Beiyang Village to give up their resistance and hand over the things?"
Luo Xuan didn't respond. He glanced at Captain Xu and swung his whip: "Everyone, follow me to Beiyang Village."
Before General Luo arrived at Beiyang Village, he vaguely heard calls coming.
Captain Xu tsk-tsk'd twice, "Did you hear that? The people are complaining. I'm afraid the general will have to sell his own armor to compensate the people of Beiyang Village, right?"
"Why does this sound not like wailing to me?" Deputy General Li Quanyong suddenly spoke.
"I don't think so either. It sounds more like cheers!"
"Those are cheers! Look, the people in Beiyang Village are singing and dancing!" A young soldier shouted excitedly, pointing to the village not far away.
"They've been swept away by the barbarian cavalry, why are they still so happy? Are they all crazy?!" Captain Xu couldn't believe it.
"Just go and take a look and you'll know." A smile finally appeared on Luo Xuan's tense face. He knew that his daughter could definitely do it!
When the Luo family army came forward, they discovered that the people of Beiyang Village were cheering and surrounding Shen Ruoxi in the middle of the crowd, calling her "Princess" and throwing her into the air.
"Put me down quickly, this is what I should do!" At this moment, no matter what Shen Ruoxi said, she could not dampen the enthusiasm of everyone in Beiyang Village.
"The princess is the savior of our entire village. We can't do anything for her, so we can only express our gratitude to her in this way!"
"If it weren't for the princess, we really can't imagine how we would have survived this winter."
"The princess is the adopted parent of our entire village. If the princess needs us in the future, all of us in the village will be happy to help!"
The villagers' words of gratitude continued to reach the ears of everyone in the Luo family army, especially Captain Xu, who even suspected that he was hallucinating.
Could it be that Shen Ruoxi really drove the Barbarian Cavalry out of Beiyang Village? How is this possible!
"General, you wouldn't have sent an army to garrison here just for the princess, right?" This was the only possibility Captain Xu could think of.
Luo Xuan's face was full of pride: "You don't know the situation of the Luo family army? If I dispatched an army here, would you not know?"
"If you want to know the reason so badly, why not go and ask Ruoxi yourself?"
