The pork butcher is smoother than a pig butcher!

Chapter 349 Sending Someone Off

Two days later.

Wei Lu Mu.

A group of more than ten people rushed over.

Su Rileg met the stunningly beautiful woman who seemed to be a miracle doctor, just as he had hoped.

This time when they met, the other party didn't even glance at him.

He merely waved the small porcelain bottle in his hand and said in a cold tone:

"The hostages have been returned to you. They must have traveled hundreds of miles in three days and two nights. So please keep your promise and hand over the antidote in one hand and General Xiong in the other!"

Surileg stared at the porcelain bottle in her hand, a thought flashing through his mind, and then he spoke:

"You say it's the antidote? But who can guarantee that it really is the antidote? What if this medicine cures the old poison but then poisons us with a new one?"

General Huozhou and Tian Jiu stood in front of Gan Minglan, glaring angrily:

"You brat, how dare you go back on your word?! Aren't you afraid our iron cavalry will trample every inch of your Khanate's land?!"

Surrage, protected by five hundred cavalrymen, appeared fearless and spoke slowly and deliberately:

"We didn't say we wouldn't exchange with you! We need to take the antidote back to the capital and have the royal physician examine it before we can administer it."

Gan Minglan poured a white pill directly from the small porcelain bottle, put it in her mouth, and made a swallowing motion so that the other person could clearly see the pill on the tip of her tongue.

His eyes were full of sarcasm:
"I'm just afraid of death. I've never heard of an antidote that's also poisonous!"

The other party withstood the wave of taunts and persisted:
"That's hard to say. You made both the poison and the antidote. Even if you're taking the poison now, we can still take the antidote as soon as we leave you."

Gan Minglan had a plan in mind, but she put on an impatient expression and said, "Tell me, what do you want in order for you to keep your promise?"

While she was speaking, she inadvertently gave Tian Jiu a gesture.

Tian Jiu understood immediately and shouted, "I advise you to think carefully before you speak!"

Without blinking, Su Rileg made a suggestion that was both unexpected and expected: "I would like to ask you to take General Xiong's place and escort us on our way."

Before Gan Minglan could say anything after these words were spoken.

General Huozhou and Tian Jiu simultaneously rebuked:

"You are shameless!"

"Don't even think about it!"

The shameless scoundrel seemed completely unconcerned about angering the group, and spoke with a firm tone.

The implication was clear: this condition was non-negotiable.

Seeing the general of Huozhou and the adjutant discussing things far away, and hearing faint sounds of their argument, I felt particularly pleased.

Surrender: What's the life of a Kansai general? If one dies during the day, another might be promoted by night.

He was certain that the woman they called Captain Gan must be the healer from the Valley of Divine Healers that their Han master had mentioned.

Medical personnel who can go deep into the epidemic area must have something to rely on.

The fact that no disease has been reported in Hami indicates that the epidemic is under control.

There's no better deal than exchanging a doctor for a general as a hostage.

Moreover, he had never seen such a cold and beautiful woman before.

Fortunately, he was not yet an adult before he went to war, and the clan had not yet made a decision about his marriage.

He thought that if his father and brothers knew about this woman's abilities, he might be able to get married next year.
After mentally calculating several times, Suzhileg gave a wink to the cavalryman beside him, and the group immediately made a move to retreat.

The other party indeed panicked.

The general drew his long sword, gesturing to block him:

"Wait, wait! Where do you want Captain Gan to take you? Ang will bring a few of his men to protect you." Su Rileg sneered.

"You only have ten breaths to consider. Don't bring any guards! Starting tomorrow, as long as there are no signs of poisoning within ten days after we take the antidote, we will release her."

What could be done about a dozen generals?
In the end, I gritted my teeth and agreed.

Gan Minglan trembled with anger at their decision: "You, you..."

You talked for a long time but couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

Tian Jiu looked guilty and stammered for a long time.

Hardening my heart, I said:
"Captain Gan, don't worry! Once the General wakes up, we will definitely tell him about your grievances. We will also send someone to take care of your family who are far away."

It's really putting Lao Tian in a very difficult position.

Fearing that his facial expressions weren't genuine enough, he lowered his head after speaking.

Gan Minglan gritted her teeth:
"So be it, so be it. I've sacrificed myself to bring peace to the Seven Guards of Kansai. I can bear this injustice!"

After saying that, he turned around and rode away on her horse without looking back.

After Su Rileg and his men had run three miles, General Xiong, who had just regained consciousness, was thrown to the ground by the Hu people.

His finger pointed in Gan Minglan's direction, his mouth agape with bitterness, unable to utter a single word. After a long pause, he managed to utter only one word: "Gan."

What's so sweet about it!

His response was a cloud of yellow dust kicked up by the horse's hooves.

Fifteen minutes later, Tian Jiu and the others found General Xiong.

"Are you alright? Here, have a drink."

General Xiong didn't even have time to drink water. He pointed to the west, his eyes glazing with anxiety.

Tian Jiu smiled and comforted him:
"Don't you know General Gan's abilities? She just gave a gesture, and the Hu people have invited the fox into the mouse hole."

The Fire State General also boasted from the side:
"You have no idea, these barbarians put on a good show for us. On one hand, they exchanged hostages with us, and on the other hand, they colluded with 50,000 Russians to try to bypass the snow mountain and reach Hami City. A few days ago, they ran into the 3,000 vanguard battalion of Ganluchuan. And guess what happened?"

General Xiong was still reeling from one shock when he was startled again.

My throat felt like it was being cut by a knife.

He took a sip of water and gestured to the other person to speak quickly.

Tian Jiu then replied:

"The vanguard battalion members all have great appetites; they can eat as much as they go! I even went to Ganluchuan to get the antidote for those kids."

It is said that they were hunting in the mountains that night when the Russians entered their encirclement.

If the battle had been fought in broad daylight, they wouldn't have had such a smooth run. They took advantage of the fact that the enemy didn't know their strengths or whereabouts, catching them off guard.

The Rat King and General Gan wreaked havoc during this time, and after cleaning up the battlefield at dawn, they found nearly 50,000 corpses left in the ravines.

Upon hearing this, General Xiong finally understood the Hu people's cunning move.

But the thought that Ganluchuan, whom he had personally chosen, had actually blocked the Rakshasa's sneak attack filled him with uncontrollable pride.

Finally, he managed to ask, with difficulty: "Casualties?"

"Don't worry, of the vanguard battalion, only about forty people have serious gunshot wounds, about twenty have minor injuries, and the remaining thirty-odd were injured by muskets exploding."

This record is simply amazing.

General Huozhou was filled with envy upon hearing this.

Their garrison suffered nearly a thousand casualties from being trampled by a mad horse, and at a critical moment, the other side even took General Xiong hostage.

My heart is like a sealed kiln, burning silently.
