When Longyi and Beitang Yu came out of the main tent, it was already noon. The two of them had been tossing and turning inside for the whole morning. At this time, the soldiers of Wu Shuang Battalion who had gone out for training came back one after another. The soldiers of the battalion had already set up a big tent and started to prepare lunch.
After being moisturized, Beitang Yu was incomparably beautiful. Her pretty face was no longer as cold as before. Instead, a coquettish womanly aura exuded from inside out.
"My husband, it's all your fault. I can't even stand steadily now." Beitang Yu grumbled.
"Blame me? I wonder who was the one who shouted for more just now. "Longyi said with a mischievous smile. His big hand patted Beitang Yu's pert buttocks twice.
Beitang Yu blushed and rolled her eyes at Longyi. She softly said: "Who asked you to seduce me? If I don't blame you, who should I blame?"
Longyi was stunned. He hugged Beitang Yu's waist and laughed heartily. This girl was really a wonderful person. He liked her.
"General." At this time, a pleasantly surprised and rough voice called out. It was Tyrant Bear who was waiting outside.
Longyi released Beitang Yu's waist and punched Tyrant Bear's sturdy chest. He said: "Tyrant Bear, you're really good. I heard that you killed the most enemies in the entire army."
Tyrant Bear chuckled and said: "This old bear likes to kill. It's much more comfortable than seducing and scheming."
Long Yi smiled and declined to comment. He knew that Tyrant Bear was not a man without brains. It's just that Wu Shuang Battalion had Beitang Yu who was better at scheming than him. Therefore, he abdicated his position and concentrated on killing the enemy.
"Tyrant Bear, how many people did our Wu Shuang Battalion lose in this war?" Longyi asked.
"Up till now, our Peerless Battalion has been through dozens of battles, both large and small. We have lost a thousand five hundred and sixty-eight men, and six hundred and ten severely injured." Xiong Ba's tone grew heavy as he mentioned the casualties. These were the elites of the elites!
"Have you done a good job in dealing with the aftermath and compensating them?" Longyi asked indifferently. The number of dead and injured added up to more than 2,000 people, and the Wu Shuang Battalion only had 12,000 people in total.
"General, everything has been taken care of. The ashes and names of the dead soldiers have been collected, and the heavily wounded soldiers have been sent back to the empire to recuperate. The compensation is three times that of the soldiers from other armies," Xiong Ba replied.
"Very good, well done. Inform all the officers and soldiers to gather after lunch. I want to hold a memorial ceremony for all the deceased officers and soldiers. I want everyone to know that these soldiers who sacrificed their lives for Wu Shuang Battalion are all heroes. Wu Shuang Battalion will always remember them, and so will I, Ximen Yu." Longyi said with a solemn expression. He didn't say sacrificed their lives for the empire, but for Wu Shuang Battalion. Because Wu Shuang Battalion had never done anything for the Dragon Empire, and the soldiers of Wu Shuang Battalion were only loyal to him, Longyi.
"Yes, General." Tyrant Bear saluted, then turned around and went to inform his subordinates.
At this time, the curtain of a tent not far from the main tent was lifted open. Bull, Nalan Ruyue and Wu Shuang walked towards Longyi. When they arrived at Wu Shuang Battalion, Longyi had instructed Nangong Nu to inform Bull and Ruyue.
Nalan Ruyue carefully sized up Beitang Yu who was beside Longyi and inwardly exclaimed in admiration. Sure enough, none of the women beside her husband were ordinary.
"My husband, why didn't you wake me up when you left? When I woke up, I didn't see you and was worried to death." Nalan Ruyue grumbled in a flirtatious manner. When she woke up, she didn't see Longyi and Wu Shuang. She was the only one left in the carriage. At that time, she was very panicked in her heart. Fortunately, when she got out of the carriage, she saw a small group of soldiers of Wu Shuang Battalion standing upright and waiting at the side.
"Seeing that you were sleeping soundly, I didn't have the heart to wake you up." Long Yi said and pinched Nalan Ruyue's nose.
"Forget it this time, next time if you want to leave, you have to let me know. You know that I will be worried." Nalan Ruyue slapped away Longyi's big hand and snorted.
"I know, next time I will definitely take you along. Well, you three should get to know each other. Hereafter, you three will be good sisters." Long Yi said to Wu Shuang and the other two women.
All three women were intelligent women, and they already knew that it was impossible to monopolize Longyi. So in the future, if they wanted to get along with each other, they naturally had to cultivate their feelings.
As a matter of fact, Wu Shuang, Nalan Ruyue and Beitang Yu, these three women all had cold temperament. According to reason, it would take a period of time for them to warm up to each other. But what made Longyi surprised was that the three women had a tacit understanding with each other. In less than half an hour, they got along with each other as if they had been sisters for many years. At least, it seemed like this on the surface.
After eating lunch, it was still snowing heavily outside. The north wind whistled and rolled the snowflakes that filled the sky. Once they came out of the tent, they felt that the north wind was like a blade, blowing against their cheeks and causing them to feel pain. The wind and snow obstructed their vision.
But in the spacious and empty snowfield of Wu Shuang's camp, there were rows of soldiers standing neatly with their chests puffed out. No matter how the wind and snow battered them, they remained motionless. In a very short period of time, their whole body was covered with a layer of white snow. If it was not for those bloodthirsty eyes filled with hostility, one would have thought that they were snowmen.
At this time, Longyi wearing general armor walked up to the wooden platform in large strides. Tyrant Bear and Beitang Yu followed behind him.
All the officers and soldiers below looked at Longyi with fanatical gaze. They followed the tall and sturdy figure of Longyi. He was their role model and their spiritual pillar.
Longyi's expression was solemn, and his black eyes that could cause people's heart to palpitate swept over the soldiers of Wu Shuang's camp. He slowly said in a low and deep voice: "All of you are heroes, it is your bravery that created the prestige of Wu Shuang's camp, making it spread throughout the entire Blue Waves Continent, making the enemy tremble in fear upon hearing its name."
"Wu Shuang, Wu Shuang, Wu Shuang … …" All the soldiers below shouted the slogan of Wu Shuang's camp at the same time. Their majestic voice covered the whistling of the wind and snow, and reverberated in the jungle of this valley for a long time.
Longyi pressed his hands down, and the voice of the soldiers stopped abruptly.
"Behind me are the ashes of our one thousand five hundred and sixty-eight brothers. They were all your comrades-in-arms. They used their blood to make us stronger, and they also made the Unparalleled Battalion stronger. We can't forget them, we can't forget our comrades-in-arms who fought shoulder to shoulder with us. Today, let us offer sacrifices to their heroic souls. They will not die in vain. We will slaughter the entire Proud Moon Empire to accompany them in death." Longyi stepped aside, and behind him, there were layers upon layers of clay jars filled with ashes. In the middle of each clay jar, there was a name engraved.
"Slaughter the entire Proud Moon Empire, slaughter the entire Proud Moon Empire … … All the soldiers of Wu Shuang's camp shouted themselves hoarse. Longyi had completely stimulated their blood, and they couldn't wait to kill their way to the Yatesianna defense line.
"With a long sword and a bow, the body is separated, but the heart is not chastised. With sincerity and bravery, in the end, we are unyielding and unconquerable. With the body dead, the spirit is the soul, and the soul is the hero. " Longyi's somewhat desolate voice soared into the sky. He was reciting a part of a poem written by an ancient person in his previous life to commemorate the fallen soldiers. It was called National Tragedy.
*****
At the western border of the Nalan Empire, in order to prevent the invasion of the beast-men race, there were 100,000 border guards stationed here all year round.
It was night, and the sky was drizzling. Several teams of Nalan Empire's soldiers who were responsible for patrolling the border neglected their duties and hid in a cave to avoid the rain and warm themselves by the fire. They were laughing and telling dirty jokes.
The beast-men race hadn't acted blindly without thinking for many years. This caused the Nalan Empire's border guards to be extremely lax in their military discipline. Every day, they would train blindly and foolishly. Moreover, from the generals to the soldiers, they were all like this. They didn't think about making progress, and after half a day, they would run to a brothel in a nearby border town to waste their excess energy.
"Old Six, wasn't the martial arts of that sister last time first-rate? I was next to you, and I heard you move for less than two minutes. Hahaha." In a small cave, a small soldier wearing the Nalan Empire's military uniform was laughing and teasing his comrade. When he said this, the rest of the soldiers looked at Old Six with contempt.
This soldier called Old Six was so angry that his face turned red, and he fiercely retorted, "Gouzi, you are worse than me. Once, I heard from Little Red that every time you go there, you have to take medicine in advance. Otherwise, even if I help you, you won't be able to stand up."
"What nonsense are you talking about … …." Gouzi's foot was stepped on by someone, and he immediately jumped up, wanting to make a move.
"What are you two making a ruckus for? If you make a ruckus again, I'll kick you out of the patrol." A soldier wearing the captain's emblem shouted.
The two immediately calmed down. They only heard Old Six muttering, "Why are we patrolling in this damned weather? How would those bastards of the beast-men race dare to invade our Nalan Empire? They would be scared witless when I fart."
Gouzi looked outside the cave and said, "Do you think there will really be a beast-men attack tonight?"
"Attack my ass. Our Nalan Empire's border guards have been changed dozens of times. Other than seeing a few small mice, we can't even see a shadow of a fart beast-man." That captain said.
"Yes, yes, even if the orcs had ten thousand guts, they wouldn't dare to …" Another soldier said. But before he could finish his sentence, his voice stopped abruptly, like a rooster that had been strangled by its neck. He saw a few tall shadows suddenly appear on the cave wall, illuminated by the flickering flames.
"Li Zi, you're having a stroke. Why are you trembling?" the captain said with a smile.
"Beast … beast-men are coming." Li Zi stuttered. His trembling hands wanted to touch the signal flare on his body, but he suddenly realized that this was a cave, and the signal flare couldn't fly to the sky.
"Don't joke, beast-men … … uh … …" The other four people thought that Li Zi was playing tricks on them, but when they turned around, they saw a few tall lion man soldiers grinning. Then, their vision turned black and they lost consciousness.
