[The third update is here. Adding a new update for the two Hall Masters. (hhggug)]
Yang Ye was well aware of this fact.
In the midst of an army, the thing that a commander feared the most was a camp explosion.
That was because a soldier's mental state would be stretched taut in the face of a battle. Any mishap could snap that mental state, and they would fall into a frenzy.
This was especially so at night. The moment the camp exploded, the soldiers would lose their rationality. They would attack anyone who got close, regardless of friend or foe. The only thing they knew was to kill all the enemies in front of them. Only when he died, or when he fainted from exhaustion would it end. Otherwise, someone with great prestige would step in to stop them. For example, a commander with great prestige would speak up to stop them.
They had great prestige in the army.
The words that came out of his mouth would imperceptibly produce a powerful deterrent force.
Those soldiers would listen to them.
They would be able to recover from the frenzy. However, certain conditions were required. For example, there had to be a fire to illuminate the area so that the soldiers could see each other's faces clearly. Only then would they be able to recover from the frenzy.
In the darkness, no matter how they shouted, it would be of no use.
Even Liu Bao wouldn't be able to stop the explosion this time. There was no way to stop it. From the start, it was already unstoppable. Furthermore, with Yang Yanping and the others shouting from underground, it was as though a Han army was attacking their camp. This made it even easier for the Xiongnu soldiers to fall into a frenzy.
Their eyes were already bloodshot.
More than half of them would die, and even most of them would die from killing each other. This was something that was almost certain.
"It's impossible to stop an explosion in the darkness. Even the Left Virtuous Prince, Liu Bao, wouldn't be able to stop it. How much vitality we can retain will depend on Liu Bao's reaction. If he makes the right response, the casualties will be significantly reduced. If he doesn't react in time, the Xiongnu army will be reduced to less than a tenth. "
Yi Tianxing's eyes flashed with confidence.
He could already hear fierce battle cries ringing in his ears. The sound of swords and sabers clashing and clashing rang out incessantly. Tragic cries and the sounds of battle were endless.
"Even the gods can't do anything about this situation. We won't be able to escape from heavy losses. "
Huang Chengyan also nodded and said.
"These cannibalistic Xiongnu people killed each other. This is their retribution for eating humans." Cai Yan said softly. A hint of sadness flashed across his eyes. He seemed to be recalling what had happened before. It was as if he could see the tragic end of those women once again.
"My lord, supper is ready."
At this moment, Lai He had already walked up quickly. Behind him were a few chefs, each carrying a tray. On the tray, there was clearly a delicacy that had already been cooked.
Someone had already brought a table over.
On the city wall, there was a spacious area where a table could be placed.
The tray was placed on the table.
There were only three dishes in total.
Another person took out a jar of old wine. This wine was exchanged from a traveling merchant. There weren't many of them, and the village didn't have the conditions to brew wine yet.
The food was naturally used to fill their stomachs. Brewing wine consumed too much food.
Whoosh!
The three iron barriers were immediately removed.
The moment they were removed, there was a burst of light, emitting a unique fragrance. The light was unusually bright and gorgeous in this dark night.
"My lord, because of the time constraints, there aren't many dishes that can be made. I only made three dishes. One is peanuts. One is steamed piranhas. And one is braised wolf meat. "
"This braised wolf meat has already been made during the day, but with a little more seasoning. The peanuts are stir-fried in a unique method, and the key is the control of the fire. Each peanut can't be in contact with the oil for more than three seconds. "
"And this steamed piranhas is also cooked in a unique method. When steaming, ginger, onions, and garlic are put into the belly of the fish. When steaming, the ginger, onions, and garlic will completely dispel the fishy smell of the fish, allowing the taste of the seasoning to penetrate into every inch of the fish, including the bone marrow. Moreover, because the seasoning is in the belly of the fish, it can lock in every delicious taste, allowing the taste to penetrate into the bones. "
"Drink the wine while tasting the delicacies. Watch the show. This should be a good enjoyment. "
Lai He opened his mouth and introduced the three dishes in front of him.
Although the introduction was very short, and the cooking process of some of the dishes was not complicated, it was in such simple cooking that a chef's culinary skills, control of the fire, and control of color, aroma, and taste were put to the test.
"Old Huang, Zhao Ji, General Yang, Da Hu, sit down. Let's eat and watch. This massacre won't end so easily. Let's see how Liu Bao will deal with it. "
Yi Tianxing was the first to sit down. The gourmet cells in his body had begun to beat excitedly. Every cell was transmitting hunger and desire to his mind.
Without hesitation, he sat down at the table.
"Let me pour the wine for Big Brother Yi."
Cai Yan raised her hand, picked up the wine jar, and poured a bowl of aged wine for Yi Tianxing.
Then, she poured wine for Huang Chengyan and the others.
Yang Ye and the others also expressed their gratitude.
"Zhao Ji, sit down too. Lai He's culinary skills are unparalleled in Xuanhuang Village. The dishes he cooks are all top-notch delicacies. Every taste is the ultimate enjoyment. Zhao Ji, please!! "
Yi Tianxing said with a smile.
He had already picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth.
He bit it gently.
The peanut felt like it was about to burst. When it was bitten, the saltiness on the surface and the crispness inside intertwined. That feeling was full of crispness and the wonderful enjoyment from the taste buds, leaving an endless aftertaste.
Just the word "fragrance" alone could make people feel endless emotions and immerse themselves in it.
It seemed to be able to drown the whole mind.
It was very wonderful.
Every cell in his body was naturally rejoicing. Waves of Qi of Heaven and Earth naturally integrated into his body. His physical strength was constantly increasing. This kind of increase was a subtle influence.
He ate another piece of fish. There was only one word for fish, fresh.
As Lai He said, all the taste was locked in the fish. This method of putting the seasoning into the belly of the fish could retain every bit of taste to the greatest extent. In addition, it could remove the fishy smell of the fish. It really melted in the mouth. It was better than what Yi Tianxing made. It was many times more delicious. It was simply a kind of extreme enjoyment.
While eating, he watched the killing in the dark.
In the Xiongnu camp.
Liu Bao was also completely awakened.
When the shouts and screams came from the camp, Liu Bao had already begun to wake up.
He immediately felt that something was wrong.
But before he could do anything, all kinds of screams, screams, and sounds of fighting immediately came from the camp. Some even said that he had been killed. Intense fighting instantly spread throughout the entire military camp.
The thick smell of blood had already filled the air.
"The camp is in chaos."
At this moment, a thought instantly appeared in Liu Bao's mind.
What followed was a wave of intense anger and fear. As a general, he was well aware of the terrible consequences once the camp was in chaos. It was absolutely disastrous.
"Damn it, it's over. Those damned cunning Central Plainsmen! How did they manage to trigger the camp whistle and cause the camp to explode? "
Liu Bao's eyes were bloodshot. Without thinking, he quickly put on his armor, picked up his scimitar, and carried all kinds of items with him.
He strode out of the tent with a torch in his hand.
Whoosh!!
The moment he walked out of the tent, a stream of water appeared in front of him and extinguished the torch in his hand.
Looking at the entire military camp, there was killing everywhere. Corpses were everywhere.
Even without a torch, with Liu Bao's strength, he could still clearly see things within a certain distance in the darkness.
How could there be any Han soldiers fighting here? They were all soldiers from their own camp.
This was a chaos.
They were killing each other.
"Stop! Stop right now!"
"I am Prince Zuoxian, Liu Bao. Are you trying to rebel? "
"I order all of you to stop at once. You bunch of fools. You don't even know that you have fallen into a trap. "
Liu Bao opened his mouth and roared.
His voice was extremely loud, like the roar of a lion.
Many Xiongnu soldiers nearby were jolted awake by the roar. They looked around helplessly.
But the sounds of fighting were too intense. Even Liu Bao couldn't drown out the sounds of fighting. In the darkness, no one could see what was going on. They had no idea what was going on.
Even if they were jolted awake, they would still instinctively swing their scimitars at the Xiongnu soldiers nearby.
"A bunch of fools."
When Liu Bao saw the awakened soldiers fighting again, he was so infuriated that his nose was crooked. He grabbed a stick from the side and whipped it at the Xiongnu soldiers around him.
With each hit, he knocked them out. They fell to the ground.
"I am Prince Zuoxian."
"Stop fighting, there are no enemies. Stop right now! "
"I am Prince Zuoxian. All of you, stop! "
"Shout after me. Prince Zuoxian is here. Everyone, get close to me. Shout loudly. Those who shout together are all on the same side. Stop fighting! "
Liu Bao's face turned black from anger, but he still quickly shouted. Everyone was jolted awake. He quickly ordered his men to get closer and shout together.
This method was effective.
Many Xiongnu soldiers were jolted awake. Even though they were afraid of the darkness, when they heard the shouts, they realized that they were on the same side. In an instant, the wariness in their hearts lessened and they relaxed. They slowly gathered.
In the end, more and more people gathered.
However, the massacre continued.
Some of them had already gone berserk. It was as though they were suffering from battlefield syndrome.
Unknowingly, a ray of light appeared in the east.
The sun began to rise.
The time of this night attack was close to dawn. It was the darkest hour, but it was also the closest to dawn.
Although the light appeared.
The killing gradually stopped.
Corpses!!
They covered the entire camp.
Fresh blood dyed the ground red.
Many Xiongnu soldiers had been slashed to the point where their faces could no longer be seen.
