Chapter 241 Meal Money
Shen Changsui said: "Of course not, His Majesty has ordered Master Jin to draft and send a letter of surrender."
"It would be best to take advantage of the time when both sides are delaying, and have the local guide lead the way, so as to cut off Aru's possible escape route." Although Shen Xiaoye felt that capturing a Tai Shi would not be of much use, it could at least keep Dada depressed for a longer time.
She wet two towels with water and wiped her uncle's and Lu Guan's faces respectively. It was so suffocating to stay in the tent in June. Fortunately, it was not yet noon.
After Lu Guan washed his hands and changed his face, he said: “It’s not easy to intercept, and it’s not appropriate to divide the troops now.
The Dada headquarters plus the main forces of the ten Yongxie tribes currently have a total of 40,000 to 50,000 people, but how many do we have on our side?
Aru is a cunning man, conceited, but he does not act consistently. I am afraid he is trying to find out the strength of our army."
The emperor had to divide his troops to defend the food routes on the left and right wings, send away the wounded infantry, and then divide them into several teams to escort the spoils or watch some nobles who surrendered to Zhou. The actual number of troops chasing him was no more than 30,000.
The reason why Aru did not dare to fight easily was that among the 30,000 soldiers, only 20,000 were wearing armor, which made the leaders of various tribes jealous. They clamored to grab the armor for themselves.
As soon as he finished speaking, he signaled to the two of them to stop talking, and walked to the door and reached out to grab the tent door, always paying attention to Shen Changsui outside.
But a hearty laugh came from outside, "Be alert, open the door, it's me."
Shen Changsui quickly opened the door and saluted: "Your Majesty."
Shen Xiaoye and Lu Guan also saluted immediately. The emperor dismissed his guards and only kept one eunuch by his side.
The eunuch raised an eyebrow and glanced at Shen Xiaoye. She immediately bowed to the emperor again and said, "I'll take my leave."
When leaving the tent, I heard the emperor pointed out his purpose: "Tell me about Alu and the Ten Kings of Yongxie that you met."
Later, she couldn't hear what Lu Guan answered.
For the first time, I noticed that this emperor was quite dark, and it looked like he was tanned from years of fighting.
The last time I passed Hulun Lake, I heard that the emperor was very familiar with the geography of this area, and he even introduced to Lin Xue Shi and other civil officials which seven rivers flowed into the lake.
Just as he was distracted, he saw Master Lin waving at him.
She approached and asked, "You didn't go..." to make an imperial edict? As soon as she said that, she changed direction and said, "Go to the hill over there to see the Dada cavalry formation?"
"Do you want to go and see?" Master Lin was not wearing his official uniform today.
Shen Xiaoye hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't want to. Did you receive any mission today?"
"Well, I'm going to meet Aru's nephew. Do you dare to go with me?" Master Lin asked her.
She declined again: "I dare not." The matter involved the emperor's arrangement of military affairs, and she was very much involved.
Scholar Lin said, "When you do business in the future, if you have to trade with Dada, knowing a young leader of a tribe will give you more options."
"It will do me no good to stand by and watch him fall into despair." Shen Xiaoye firmly refused, and said with a folded hand: "I will not disturb you, Master. I will take my leave."
Scholar Lin stroked his beard. This kid is very determined and will not be easily blinded by profit.
Shen Xiaoye didn't know why Master Lin suddenly approached her and tested her with words, but she couldn't fall into the trap.
It would be better for her to take care of her little black cat and wait with Senior Sister Xuanmiao and the others to pick up some leftovers after the battle.
But when she was about to return to her own tent, she saw Xuanmiao and the others gathered together, looking startled.
"What are you looking at?" Shen Xiaoye didn't want to squeeze in and get hot.
Xuan Miao turned her head and made way, and she immediately saw the little black cat wolfing down the fresh milk.
The cat was probably very hungry. It just looked up at her and continued eating.
She said, "Are you interested in a cat eating something?"
"Do you know how much it ate? Two pounds of dried meat and a bag of goat's milk." Xuanmiao exclaimed in amazement.
Shen Xiaoye couldn't keep calm anymore. She rushed in and touched the little black cat's belly, saying, "Don't get an upset stomach."
The little black cat had no time to pay attention to her. It had slept for more than a month and was very hungry.
The mysterious brothers and sisters said, "We took turns to examine it, and it's fine."
Everyone saw with their own eyes that it had slept for such a long time and suddenly woke up, and they were all extremely curious.
Before Shen Xiaoye could say anything to the people who were talking about what happened, a rider came flying over and said, "All irrelevant personnel, please leave the center of the army immediately."
"Is the fighting about to start?" Xuanmiao asked the person who came, but he didn't answer and rode his horse to go somewhere else to notify.
Shen Xiaoye patted the little black cat and said, "Pack up the tent and go."
She probably could only see her uncle and others after the war, and as she expected, the war between the two sides started that morning.
The little black cat transmitted her voice: "I thought you dared to go and see secretly."
"I don't dare. If I were a few years older and had trained my arm strength, I might be fine. But with my current physique, a head-on attack would knock me off my horse.
And without armor, he turned into a hedgehog in the blink of an eye when Dada patrolled and fired. "Shen Xiaoye didn't feel ashamed. In order to avoid the sun, she hid under the car board next to the central army tent.
Instead, he asked: "Now that Xuanmiao and the others are not here, can you tell me what you encountered?"
"Just use an umbrella to block it." The little black cat was very mysterious.
After Shen Xiaoye looked around and made sure there was no one around and opened a large oil umbrella, the cat's claws wiped the collar, and with a snap, irregular pieces of golden stones fell to the ground.
"Did the Taoist priests see it?" Gold ore, a gold nugget that looked very pure. Shen Xiaoye quickly looked around and asked it to be put away.
Little Black Cat: "It's my meal. They didn't see me collecting these, but there was something strange about the wish stone. When I touched the runes engraved on it, I saw an old Taoist with a white beard.
He said he wanted to use the power of heaven and earth to return to his own world, but he accidentally led the lightning to another world.
"So that's why we came here?" Seeing that it didn't take it, Shen Xiaoye put the gold bars into his space first. There were several kilograms of gold, enough for the little black cat to eat until it was old.
Then he asked, "Did you tell us how to go back?"
The little black cat choked her and said, "If he, who knows how to use formations, can't handle it, let's forget about it.
During this month, he kept saying these things to me, until I woke up and there was nothing else.
There may be other explanations, I hope Li Shi is not here."
"After I go back, I'll ask Taoist Qingxi to borrow it to see." Shen Xiaoye was also curious about what would happen next. It turned out that the Taoist's great-uncle also wore it.
She couldn't help but move her umbrella away and look up at the sky. Is this world leaking?
There was no leak, but clouds were gathering not far away and it looked like it was going to rain.
She saw the civil and military officials who stayed behind in the central army tent running out to look at the sky. No one wanted it to rain because it would affect the situation on the battlefield.
Shen Xiaoye held the little black cat and chased after the clouds with everyone else, staring closely.
At this time, the distant sound of swords and horses gradually faded away. A moment later, the soldiers who reported the victory shouted: "Great victory, great victory!"
The ministers rushed forward and asked, "Have you caught Alu?"
"What about Your Majesty?"
"How likely is it that we will destroy the enemy?"
