This made me feel that this was not a battlefield, but a tavern.
But how wonderful it would be if we really weren’t on the battlefield! This meal will definitely be delicious for me.
Suddenly, a horn sound came from the distance. If you guessed correctly, it was Xia's attack horn.
Soon Shakshe's voice sounded outside: "Your Majesty, Xia Yan actually led troops to fight in person."
Click, the cup in Yan Xiaoqing's hand actually cracked, and a flash of extreme anger suddenly appeared on his face.
When Shakshe saw me, he was stunned for a while, but quickly changed his gaze: "Your Majesty, the general is willing to lead the troops into battle and give Xia Yan a fight with him."
Yan Xiaoqing covered up the anger on her face and snorted: "No need, I will meet him tonight alone and summon the magic soldiers immediately."
"yes!"
After Shakshe left, Yan Xiaoqing put down her chopsticks, pulled the soft cloth aside and wiped her palms that were wet with wine: "Go and come back. You stay here."
I quickly stood up and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will run away?"
Yan Xiaoqing seemed to have heard some ridiculous joke: "Escape? Where are you going to escape to? Or, where can you escape to?"
I was stunned by the question.
Perhaps in Yan Xiaoqing's guess, I am a poor creature abandoned by everyone, and only he is my safe harbor.
But in other words, why is he not?
The people of the Wu tribe betrayed him. Prime Minister You was his father-in-law, but in the end his true identity was a spy of the Xia Kingdom. When he needed it most, these people all betrayed him.
I sat down again and said expressionlessly: "Yan Xitong said, you have no food and grass."
"Are you concerned about Gu?" Yan Xiaoqing suddenly showed a long-lost smile, which made me feel dazed for a moment.
"Go and fight your battle." I turned my head bitterly and stopped looking at him.
"Haha, let's go, I will open your eyes today."
I don’t know why Yan Xiaoqing is willing to take me to see his magic army.
With curiosity in my heart, I followed him out. The moment I opened the tent, I was greeted by a cold breath. I didn't expect that Peacock Valley would be colder than Guancheng. I was blown away by the wind and immediately got cold.
A shiver.
But the next moment, a warm cloak covered me tightly from behind, and I knew who it was without looking back.
"What about you?" He gave me his clothes. Isn't he cold?
"What I need to wear now is a battle armor instead of a warm cloak." Yan Xiaoqing walked past me with her head held high and took the lead.
Carrying an over-long fox fur cloak, I followed him one foot deep and one foot shallow. I passed some tents along the way and found that those tents seemed to be unlit, and they were dark and strange.
When I arrived at the clearing where the soldiers were gathering, I was shocked by the scene in front of me.
What kind of people are they? Their faces are pale, their eye circles are blood-red, their clothes are stained with blood, and they look lifeless, but they all stand upright.
I opened my mouth and stared at one of the soldiers. There was a fatal wound on his neck. The blood dried on the collar, and the hideous scar turned his skin outwards, but the soldier didn't react at all.
They... they seem like a bunch of dead people without intuition.
"Do you know why I don't have enough food and grass, so I can still fight?" Yan Xiaoqing asked leisurely with his hands behind his back.
"No...don't know."
Yan Xiaoqing turned around and looked at me with a strange smile: "Because the dead don't need to eat."
