"yes!"
Qingfeng responded and drew his sword to join the battle.
Sukhbaatar was shot dead by Xie Yushu, which gave Qingfeng and the others a shot in the arm, and their morale soared instantly.
The Tatars, however, suffered a sharp decline in morale due to the death of their leader.
They were barely holding on when their last breath slipped, and their decline became immediately apparent. Some knelt down and begged for mercy, while others turned and fled.
But Qingfeng would never give them a chance to tip them off, and led his men to kill them all.
Seeing that the situation was settled, Xie Yushu took the lead and returned to the camp. She instructed the people left behind to cook the meal, and that they would eat when Qingfeng and the others returned from clearing the battlefield.
Seeing that Suhebalu's remnants had finally been wiped out, Nanxing excitedly hugged Xie Yushu and cried bitterly, finally avenging the prince and Chunyu!
Xie Yushu patted Nanxing on the shoulder, her own eyes welling up with tears. Yes! She had finally gotten her revenge!
However, she wished none of this had ever happened.
Nanxing's emotions came and went quickly. After crying, she felt better and rushed off to help clean up the mess.
Xie Yushu picked up the wine pot, took a sip of wine, and walked away to sit down a short distance away.
She sometimes envied Nanxing, who cried when she was sad, laughed when she was happy, and cursed when she was angry, never taking anything to heart.
But she could never do it. On the surface, she seemed calm and collected, as if she wouldn't flinch even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of her, but in reality, she kept all her joys and sorrows hidden in her heart, with no one to tell.
Looking up at the starry sky, Xie Yushu raised the wine jug to the air, poured half of it on the ground, took a sip herself, and let all her unspoken words turn into a soft sigh!
A short while later, Qingfeng and the others returned after cleaning up the battlefield. Nanxing ran over to call Xie Yushu back for dinner.
In this operation, only a few people were slightly injured, and no one was killed in action.
When Xie Yushu returned, she left a message
Those who get injured will be punished.
As a result, those who had suffered minor injuries knelt down dejectedly, begging for forgiveness and punishment from Yu Shu.
Xie Yushu looked at them and said...
"Then you guys sing a song for everyone!"
The group of people looked at each other, all somewhat awkwardly.
They're really not good at this!
One person mustered up his courage and asked...
"Master, why don't you just let us punish him with a rod?"
Xie Yushu said
"Dream on! I was counting on you to fight. After you've been punished, who's going to go into battle with me?"
Hurry up, we've won a great victory in this battle, avenged your prince, you...
"Sing one of your prince's favorite songs to announce the good news!"
After Xie Yushu said that, the others fell silent. After a moment, Qingfeng spoke.
"Then, let's sing together one of the prince's favorite songs, 'His might extends across the four seas, and he pacifies the eight wastelands!'"
This is a poem written by a founding monarch in history. Later, because of his lofty ambitions and great achievements, he was admired by later generations, who added music to it, turning it into a magnificent song.
Xuanyuan Che loved listening to this, but due to his status, he rarely listened to it in public, though those around him all knew it.
As the breeze began, all the Divine Eagle Guards began to chant softly, their voices solemn, deep, and full of heroic spirit.
Xie Yushu followed their tune, tapping her fingers lightly to the beat, imagining in her heart that if Xuan Yuanche hadn't been suffering from a heart ailment, he would definitely be a dashing and spirited man, skilled in both literature and martial arts, and perhaps one of the most powerful and influential figures in the world!
However, even though he was seriously ill, he remained a responsible and spirited young man.
A person is born great because of their heart and vision, not because of their physical stature or strength.
The disease only confined his body, not his soul.
As the song ended, Xie Yushu raised the wine jug in her hand once more and addressed Qingfeng and the others.
"Drink a toast to today's revenge!"
Everyone took off the wine jugs from their waists, poured a small sip, and then drank a small sip.
It's both a consolation and a celebration.
Afterwards, while eating flatbread and drinking hot soup, everyone looked curiously and eagerly at the gun next to Xie Yushu.
Those who stayed behind had never seen the power of this thing, but those nearby saw it clearly. Xie Yushu raised her hand and snapped it when she was more than a hundred paces away. With a loud bang, Suhebalu, whom Qingfeng and the other three or four people couldn't hold back, fell to his knees and died instantly!
When they went to check on it later, they found a bloody hole in its back and a bloody hole in its chest. The thing was far more deadly than they had imagined.
Because the weapon's destructive power was truly astonishing, and because of their innate love for weapons, as soon as they sat down, those who had witnessed its effects couldn't wait to boast about it to the ignorant country bumpkins who stayed behind!
Although they had only seen it less than an hour earlier than the country bumpkin in their eyes.
So, encouraged by them, everyone quickly finished their meal and surrounded Xie Yushu, staring at her expectantly.
Xie Yushu felt it was time to explain the power of these two things to them, so she had them stand in a circle, staggered, and disassembled and reassembled the gun in front of them, explaining its structure, how to use it, effective firing range, and other related knowledge.
When they saw Xie Yushu skillfully loading and unloading the gun in her hands, a group of grown men, along with Nan Xing, couldn't help but drool with envy.
When they heard Xie Yushu say that a skilled sniper could lock onto a target from about 3,000 paces (more than 1,500 meters) and kill it with a single shot, they were so excited they went crazy!
For them, hitting a target from a hundred paces away is impressive enough; they can't even imagine hitting it from three thousand paces away!
After a long while, someone finally spoke up in disbelief.
"If you use a gun to assassinate someone, wouldn't the person being killed never even see the assassin's shadow?"
Three thousand steps, that must be three or four miles!
Xie Yushu nodded
"That's certainly true in theory, which is why I've asked you to keep this operation a secret."
This thing can only be kept in my hands for now. If it gets out, it will surely cause a bloodbath.
When that time comes, the world will surely be in chaos.
It is the ordinary people who suffer.
As long as this technology remains undeveloped, given the current weaponry and economy of the Great Qi, it will be able to far surpass other countries within three years, and for decades or even a century, it can deter neighboring countries and safeguard a century of peace!
When Xie Yushu said she didn't plan to make this public, everyone was visibly disappointed.
If it's not made public, then they won't have anything to do! So sad!
Before they could even get into the mood, Xie Yushu abruptly changed the subject and said...
"However, I plan to rush to make a batch for my own self-defense."
You all better pull yourselves together and get back alive. Once you're back, each of you will get a gun, and I'll personally teach you how to use it.
After you return, you will continue as before, remaining hidden in the shadows, serving as the last line of defense for the manor.
The group immediately got excited and said that they would crawl back even if it meant just to play with the gun.
