The Age of Lords Reborn

Chapter 221 The Secret of Gold Coins (please subscribe!)

"Who can tell me when the damn Han Chinese cavalry left the city!"

"Why can they accurately find our cavalry unit!"

"Why are we Guishuang warriors repeatedly defeated by them!"

Outside Shache City, Guishuang Camp.

Delia's roar could almost be heard outside the camp from the middle tent.

There is no need to repeat the angry expression, but Delia is not only angry now, but also fear and panic.

Successive failures, troubles ensued.

From the day when the troops were dispatched, Guishuang's army has not been smooth sailing.

He thought that after the torment in Congling, the next battle would be very smooth, but the fact now is that he was severely taught by the Han people.

Lieutenant General Baru's expression was also gloomy, and he hesitated for a long time before he said: "General, maybe we can concentrate the scattered forces, so that we won't be afraid of the Han army's harassment."

"Concentrate? Concentrate on one thousand or two thousand? Gather them all together, how can we find the people from the Western Regions who are scattered in the Gobi desert?"

It's not that Dilia didn't think of the method Baloo said, but this kind of thinking is just a thought.

It is not so easy to find the traces of the Western Regions when the troops are divided into hundreds of small teams. After joining forces, there will be less property to loot.

The Han people are really powerful, they only dispatched more than a thousand cavalry secretly.

This number happened to be the size of the enemy army that caused Delia the most headache.

There are more than a thousand cavalry, and the number is not large. Cavalry of this size often have very fast reaction capabilities and mobility. It is difficult for him to lay a trap even if he wants to set up an ambush.

Can't set up an ambush, can't join forces.

There is no safety at all for the cavalry who go out to plunder.

After trying all kinds of methods but all failed, Dilia shook her head despondently: "There is no need to send troops out to rob. The Han people will not give us this chance."

"But what to do with the vice king's order, we don't have enough food for ourselves."

"How to do?"

Showing a mocking smile, Delia glanced at Paka and Balu, and spit out two words from the corner of his mouth:

"Kill the horse!"

kill horse?
The general actually said that he wanted to kill the horse?
Paka and Baru couldn't believe their ears, how could the general give such an order.

Doesn't the general know that war horses are the most precious wealth of Guishuang people and their second life?
"You don't have to look at me like that. If there is another way, I don't want to do it." Delia snorted, and then walked out of the tent: "We have also lost many warriors these days, and their horses are empty. Come out, let’s deal with that batch first.”

"Tell the soldiers, this is my order, they must do this if they want to survive!"

Live!
When the Guishuang army is going out, there is still such a question to consider.

ten years ago?
Or 20 years ago?

Baloo and Paka didn't know the answer, but they couldn't find a reason to refute Delia at the moment, because they both wanted to live.

"I'll go talk to the soldiers." Paka shook his head bitterly, and then walked out of the big tent.

Soon, there were bursts of fierce quarrels in the Guishuang Camp.But the quarrel did not last too long, and it seemed that one party had made a compromise.

Immediately afterwards, the wailing of hundreds of war horses spread throughout the Guishuang military camp.

.........

Mo Xiaobai, who had been staying in Shache King City, did not know that Guishuang's army had already started slaughtering horses in order to feed their hunger.

As Li Guang's good news came back one by one, Mo Xiaobai was completely relieved of this Western Region War.

So now Mo Xiaobai has the energy to do other things.

For example... peeping/peeping.

"I said buddy, how do you know that this Greek alchemist actually had an affair with the lady Shache?"

In the backyard of a Xiyu restaurant less than [-] meters away from the Shache Palace, the heads of Mo Xiaobai, Bai Yu, and Duan were exposed side by side, and their eyes were all focused on the only small room in the backyard, their eyes full of gossip.

Hearing the fat man's question in a low voice, Mo Xiaobai raised his eyebrows and smiled: "The mountain people have their own tricks!"

"Tch, you're still playing tricks here, you must have found something when you went to that alchemist's house."

"Since you know, why don't you ask me?"

"You know what, tell me quickly, fat man, I like to listen to this kind of headlines and gossip the most."

"Since you asked the question sincerely, I will tell you mercifully. The reason why I discovered this is entirely because of that gold coin."

The corner of Mo Xiaobai's mouth curled up, and while watching the movement in the room, he explained: "You may not know that for any alchemist, metal purification and smelting is a very sacred thing. They often put this kind of The process is imagined as a way to create eternity, and the smelting results they get are even more fetishes in their hearts."

"Just imagine, if you were that alchemist, and that gold coin was your greatest achievement now, how would you commemorate it? Would you engrave some insignificant things on the gold coin?"

gold?

commemorate?

Mo Xiaobai said a few words in a few words, before the bass could react, Duan nodded suddenly: "I remember, there are portraits of people on his gold coins, his own and another woman's."

"That's right!"

Seeing that Dumb had already thought of the statue of the gold coin, Mo Xiaobai nodded immediately: "His gold coin has the portraits of himself and another woman on it. At that time, I was wondering what the relationship between the two would be."

"Mother and son? Siblings? Brothers and sisters?"

"No, none of these answers are correct. Maybe the blood relationship will make him have an extremely deep relationship with his relatives, but this kind of relationship cannot be compared with eternity. When I think of the eternity represented by high-purity gold coins, I naturally think of love."

Love is eternal!

This is fine for the ancient Greeks who admired romance.

"But how do you know that his beloved woman is in the city?"

"This question is simpler. The stories he was telling at the time were related to his sacred profession. When he was telling those stories, he kept looking out the window. What do you think he would be distracted by? "

Mo Xiaobai rubbed his chin with his right hand, and said with a bit of "old fox" cunning: "I'm at least [-]% sure that that time is the time when he's going to date. Even because he didn't dare to make too much noise, he was ashamed to talk to us directly. Say, he is going to meet his girlfriend, what else could it be if it's not an underground relationship?"

"After the war broke out, I didn't care about this side. I just let people stare at it first. As a result, news came back yesterday that he would come to this private meeting every once in a while. The object is a lady from Shache, lady His elder brother is a general who holds military power in the Shache Kingdom."

After Mo Xiaobai finished the information he discovered at the time, Bayu couldn't help but click his tongue twice: "It's really a person who doesn't look like a person, a guy who looks like a god, and his mind is full of alchemy, but he can still hook up with you Wife. I said, that noble lady has a man, right?"

"No, a widow."

"Then why doesn't he go directly to propose marriage? Does it have to be sneaky?"

"Propose marriage? What do you want to propose?"

Mo Xiaobai laughed when he heard the words, and then pouted: "Just his little wealth? Or a humble gold coin? If he goes to propose a marriage, he might be kicked out by the lady's elder brother."
