C38 (1/2)
There was no suspense for the outcome of the competition. In terms of time, Lady Xiu’er had ridden all the way to Savage Valley and then ”hunted” a Demonic Bear and came back. He had stayed in Savage Valley for no more than an incense stick's worth of time. And the most speechless thing was that the Lady Xiu’er was afraid that the Demonic Bear would tire his warhorse out and return on his Demonic Bear's back. It only fainted after reaching the entrance of the camp with a single punch.
strong man didn't even bother to speak anymore. The five soldiers that he had chosen could not be considered as first-rate experts in Wulian Border Army, but they had coordinated with each other for a very long time. Even if he led such an elite army, he only dared say that he would set off during the day. If he was lucky, he would be able to hunt a demon bear that night. However, this girl managed to get a demonic bear back in the time it takes to eat a meal. The gap was not that big. Furthermore, this was a Demonic Bear, not an ordinary Mountain Bear. Demonic Bears were called Demonic Beasts because they were more ferocious, more agile, and even more quick-witted. A troop of soldiers being able to kill an adult Demonic Bear was already considered as an elite in Wulian Border Army. A person like Lady Xiu’er who went over and caught a demon bear without stopping wasn't something that anyone in the Company would dare to think about.
The men of Five Lotus Mountain accepted their defeat, their faces showing no displeasure. They all stood up and toasted to Lady Xiu’er. However, there was something wrong with the way they looked at Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi. These two grandsons were too evil, very cunning, very old and very old. Previously, they didn't say anything, but later, they asked for wine and food. Bad seed! Bad foot discharge!
But if he lost, he lost. What Shi Donglai promised him, he would do for them. Therefore, the entire afternoon would be turned into a scene of revenge for the officers of Wulian Border Army who took turns drinking with Qu Feizhi and Qu Feizhi.
There were all sorts of ways to pour wine. The most common ones were as follows:
”Lord Qu, I don't really know about you Phoenix City Pass people, but we do know about Wulian Border Army people. After you drink this cup of wine, I, Lord Shi, will send you an additional hundred soldiers! ”
”Everyone, Lord Chen doesn't like to talk. We won't force him, we won't force him!” We brothers will drink this wine ourselves! It would be a compliment if Sir Chen were to drink with him. ”Sir Chen, if you don't drink, then I'm sorry, but we are very busy with our training and training, let's discuss the matter of sending troops!”
”Master Qu! You just heard me! Not a cup of battalion! battalion for a drink, two cups for the second battalion, and three cups for the third battalion! Come, I am the tenth battalion pipe belt, let's drink this eleven cups of wine! ”
”Sir Chen, let's drink. We can't be wrong. But this wine of mine, it's called 'Good things turn into wine'. This wine was deepened by us brothers alone, it has nothing to do with that! I understand, you do whatever you want, you do whatever you want! ”However, wine is like human nature. Old masters shouldn't be so casual …”
”...”
In that moment, Chen Chu only hated why his parents did not create a blind deaf child for him, to be able to avoid these words of advice that he had never heard before in his life. Qu Feizhi blamed his parents for not putting a lock on his stomach, so he quickly drained his stomach of Monkey Wine. It was questionable whether Wulian Mountain Range and these guys' fighting strength were the best in the empire, and their drinking ability was not good enough to be ranked in the competition, but the strength to persuade someone to drink was definitely several times stronger than Phoenix City Pass and their combined strength!
When Qu Feizhi regained his consciousness, he rubbed his head that was about to explode while asking Chen Chu who was sitting beside him, ”I say, Old Chen, why do I feel light after drinking so much?”
Chen Chu replied expressionlessly: ”I threw up.”
Qu Feizhi stared blankly at him for a moment, then sighed towards the sky.
Sheep legs belong to sheep legs, business is business. It had to be said that the efficiency of Wulian Border Army was extremely high. Just as Chen Chu and Yue Shan were still drunk, Shi Donglai had already gathered all the officers and called a war council. While listening to Xiu'er's thoughts, they started to formulate a plan for the battle.
During the war council, Xiu'er found out a lot of things that she wasn't clear about before. For example, the Demonic Beast was definitely not a simple, strengthened version of a beast. Based on Shi Donglai's thirty odd years of observation and battle experience, he realized that the Demonic Beast's intelligence was not low at all. The more one walked towards the center of the Wulian Mountain Range, the more they would realize that the Demonic Beast had a higher level of intelligence.
As he spoke till here, Shi Donglai revealed a secret that no one knew: For several hundred years, the Wulian Border Army had guarded this place and never penetrated within a three hundred mile radius of the Wulian Mountain Range!
Xiu'er frowned. She looked at the map on the table, then raised her head and asked. ”Old General Shi, even the closest route across the Wulian Mountain Range would need at least five hundred kilometers. ”If it's like you said, then this feint method is useless?”
Shi Donglai was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, ”It can be used, we have a way.” After saying this, he pointed to a place on the map. ”There is a hill here, about three hundred and fifty kilometers away from our military tent. We once inadvertently tracked a group of Demonic Beast to this area, and in the end, we triggered a wave of attacks from other Demonic Beast. ”In the end, not even half of the three thousand brothers of the two battalions returned.
Shi Donglai sunk for a moment, then raised his voice and said, ”I believe, there must be something very important here to the Demonic Beast. ”If you want to fake your attack, this is Bu Er's choice!”
