Xia He responded, "We accidentally discovered the place where the barbarians kept their food and fodder, so we simply burned it down, which led to the barbarians chasing us."
It was really Xia He who did it!
One man broke into the rear of the barbarians and burned their food supplies.
And he can come back alive!
So heroic!
It has only been a short time since he was promoted, and he has achieved such a remarkable feat!
"Although the action was risky, the effect was remarkable. The barbarians' food supplies were burned, and they cannot launch a large-scale attack in the short term. We have gained a lot of time."
"So what we need to do now is to strengthen our defenses and send people to investigate the barbarians' movements."
Everyone else was very excited.
My originally gloomy heart felt a lot lighter.
The barbarians seem to be quite stupid, not as scary as imagined!
These 60,000-strong army might actually be defective and may not be able to hold on!
At the same time, in the messy barbarian camp, Tuoba Lie was furious.
He overturned the table and shouted angrily, "Useless! All useless! They couldn't even catch a small Qin spy, and they even had their food and grass burned!"
"How on earth did he get in? Drag all the people who were on patrol last night out and chop them up!"
The generals under his command lowered their heads and remained silent. No one dared to offend Tuoba Lie at this time.
After a moment, one of them said cautiously:
"Chief, we are short of food and grass now. Why don't we join the other two tribes first and then make plans."
Tuoba Lie snorted coldly, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes:
"I will make this kid pay the price! Pass the order down, the entire army will rest for two days. After two days, I will massacre the Great Wall with blood!"
…
The news of Xia He burning down the barbarians' granary spread quickly throughout the town like a spring breeze.
On the streets and in the alleys, and after dinner, people were all talking about this young guerrilla general.
In a short period of time, his reputation reached its peak, and more than 300 young and middle-aged men from the town and nearby villages came to join the army.
In the military camp, the new recruits trained even harder, and their shouts of killing shook the heavens, as if they were trying to completely suppress the barbarians' momentum.
The war is approaching, and the military is naturally happy to see it happen.
Xia He's military achievements were recorded in detail and reported.
Although the rewards are generous, they may not be obtained before the end of the war.
Although there were many dangers on this trip out of the city, after killing the blood wolf, he had collected the essence and blood of three kinds of exotic beasts.
This means that he can finally officially use the "Three Wonders Soup" to change his bones and start to break through the fourth level of bone refining.
Thinking of this, Xia He couldn't help feeling a little excited.
"If we want to cope with the upcoming war, we must improve our strength as soon as possible!"
Xia He went to the black market again and found Kratos.
"Master Kui, do you have any tiger bones here? I need to use them to make wine."
"Others don't have it, but Brother Xia definitely has it!"
"You are now a hero in our town! I really admire you."
After hearing this, Mr. Kui immediately sent someone to fetch a tiger bone without saying a word.
The tiger bone was crystal clear all over, and exuded a hint of fierceness.
Master Kui patted the tiger bone and said with a smile:
"This is my most precious treasure. It was left by a strange beast when it was alive. It took a lot of effort to make it. Brother Xia, since you need it, just take it."
Xia He took the tiger bone, feeling grateful, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Kui. I'll remember this favor."
Mr. Kui waved his hand and said generously:
"Brother Xia has risked his life for the people of our town, so this little thing is nothing. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."
Although this operation successfully burned down the barbarians' granary, several brothers were left on the road forever.
He called Erpang and ordered him, "Take 20 taels of compensation and send it to the families of those brothers. Also, add another 20 taels as a token of my appreciation."
Erpang nodded in response, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
Xia He patted Er Pang's shoulder and sighed, "It is inevitable that there will be no deaths in war. But those of us who are still alive can try our best to make their families live better."
Erpang nodded heavily and turned to leave.
In the evening, Xia He's wife Li Huilan and her sister's family were also taken home.
When nephew Xiaowen saw Xia He, he rushed up excitedly, hugged his thighs, looked up and asked:
"Uncle, I heard...I heard that you made a great contribution. Is that true?"
Xia He smiled and touched Xiao Wen's head, saying:
"Of course it's true."
Xiao Wen, however, had a look of admiration on his face, clenched his fists and said, "I want to join the army in the future and fight the barbarians like my uncle!"
Xia He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he could only say:
"You can join the army, but you have to learn skills first. Starting tomorrow, your uncle will teach you martial arts, how about that?"
Xiaowen jumped up excitedly and nodded repeatedly.
In the evening, Xia He and Li Huilan met again after a long separation, and naturally they were very passionate and affectionate.
Li Huilan snuggled in Xia He's arms and whispered softly, "Brother He... I'm really worried that something will happen to you."
Xia He held his wife's soft little hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, your husband is very tough, and the barbarians can't do anything to me."
Li Huilan huddled in Xia He's arms, her fair and delicate body trembling slightly.
"Don't be so arrogant next time. Be more careful."
As the two talked, their voices gradually faded away, replaced by a blushing noise.
Li Huiying, the elder sister who lived next door, heard it clearly, and her face immediately turned red, her body itched, and she thought to herself:
"...After a life-and-death experience, you're still so energetic after coming back!"
The next morning, Shan Xiong came to the door. As soon as he entered the door, he shouted:
