The pork butcher is smoother than a pig butcher!

Chapter 416 The Personal Guard's First Display of Skill
An hour later.

A hearty laugh came from inside an inconspicuous large tent.

"Hahaha, how cunning! General Gan's elaborate scheme was indeed cunning! He annihilated the Miao King and his elite troops in one fell swoop."

They had reason to believe that losing these 50,000 men would greatly reduce the fighting capacity of the Miao village.

It played a crucial role in clearing the Miao Mountains for them.

The key is.

With the miraculous medicine brought by General Gan, they are no longer afraid of the Miao people's Gu poison!
The generals looked at Gan Minglan with eyes full of gratitude.

"If General Gan hadn't arrived with his personal guards the night before, not to mention the Imperial Son-in-Law, even we old guys would probably have suffered from the Miao people's poison."

Gan Minglan: "."

The shaman summoned to Ganluchuan by Imperial Physician Huang did indeed possess the ability to cure ordinary Gu poisons.

But it would be good enough if his medicine could suppress the epilepsy by a third.

If she hadn't worked all night, the camp would have turned into a battlefield.

Unlike insect poison, epilepsy poison is a hallucinogenic drug that can damage the brain's nerves.

Once the damaged nerves are repaired using superpowers, the person will soon be able to get rid of the damage.

She was using medication while simultaneously performing manual therapy.

After realizing that the Miao people had been monitoring the camp's movements, they even took the time to devise a series of schemes to lure the enemy out, turn the tables on them, and trap them like turtles in a jar.

Fortunately.

They successfully lulled the Miao king into a false sense of security and annihilated the 50,000 Miao people at minimal cost.

Gan Mingfu, who was serving his father-in-law, felt a pang of sympathy.

He has taken good care of his health over the years; otherwise, he really wouldn't have made it to the moment his sister arrived.

I narrowly escaped death.

He not only wanted to recommend his own sister for credit, but also Xiao Jin.

“Father, the reason why General Gan was able to find us so quickly is also thanks to Xiao Jin. It is so smart. Not only was it able to find its old home in Guanzhong, but it was also able to find its master based on the picture I showed it.”

All eyes in the room were focused on Xiao Jin.

The burning gaze made Little Gold raise its head proudly and let out a cheerful chirp. Its arrogant little expression was quite irritating.

It deserves to be proud.

On its way to Kansai, whenever it saw a city wall with flags flying, it would tumble down to check the map.

If they didn't recognize it, they would cleverly turn around and run away.

Its enormous size has left countless legends of the divine eagle among the people along the way.

They flew along aimlessly, almost missing each other.

It was the Rat King who first discovered this sand sculpture.

It was only by using a sonic attack that it was attracted.

Xiao Jin felt wronged:

The eagle was seriously looking for a flag.

Unfortunately, the master and her princes did not bring any flags at all.

The vanguard's horses couldn't keep up with the wild horses' speed at all, and were still hundreds of miles behind.

In short, Xiao Jin's search for his master was arduous, but the outcome came just in time.

Emperor Qianwu gave his son-in-law face: "Xiao Jin is a great hero. From now on, the food rations for Xiao Jin will be provided from the national treasury!"

Gan Minglan clasped her hands in a fist salute:
"This humble general thanks Xiao Jin on behalf of the emperor. It has quite an appetite these days, able to eat two lamb legs in one meal. Next spring, it will have to find a female eagle, and then I will have to take care of the food for its family of three."

"Hahaha, I can afford to raise a sheep every day!"

Little Jin, perched on its owner's arm as a mascot, perked up at the mention of lamb leg, its little head darting left and right in search of it.

Don't make your facial expressions too exaggerated.

This caused the generals to burst into laughter again.

The gloom that had weighed on everyone's hearts finally dissipated. But this battle was not over yet.
The nearest Miao village to Eagle's Beak Cliff is about 80 li away.

Because it was closest to the Han Chinese camp and therefore the most dangerous, out of 50,000 people, one mountain stronghold contributed 2,000 able-bodied men.

They were all able-bodied men aged eighteen to twenty-five.

They are all the hope of the younger generation of counterfeiters.

As darkness fell, the hope of the entire village still had not returned.

The elders were on tenterhooks.

Those impatient women kept sending people to ask again and again.

You've asked too many questions.

The elders were so angry they wanted to hit someone.

After much discussion, they still couldn't make up their minds.

An elder suggested:
"No matter how the battle goes, we must send someone to Eagle's Beak Cliff to investigate again! Could it be that Gu Zangtou led them far away while chasing the Han people?"

This was because there was still a sliver of hope in their hearts.

The pessimistic clan elder frowned.

"But we already sent out three teams this afternoon, and none of them have returned yet! Will sending more people lead to the same result?"

The clan elders: "."

OK.

I don't dare to think about the worst-case scenario at all.

The truth is far worse than they think.

The three teams sent to gather information never returned.

They all lost their lives at Eagle's Beak Cliff.

After killing 50,000 Miao people, Eagle Beak Cliff was occupied by Gan Minglan's fifty personal guards before noon.

After becoming Gan Minglan's personal guards, their daily training focused primarily on concealment, hiding, and long-distance escape.

They can hide in the woods and even professional soldiers might not be able to find them.

The three teams of unprofessional scouts sent by the Miao people's mountain stronghold were silently surrounded and killed by these fifty men after entering their ambush.

They used only deadly moves, like twisting necks.

The poor Miao mountain people died without making a sound or leaving a drop of blood.

The guards were hoping the Miao people would willingly offer themselves up for execution.

Or it's the kind that just sits and waits to be harvested.

When their master left Ganluchuan, he told them a way to get rich.

Five taels of silver for every enemy killed!

The fifty guards have been busy since morning and have each saved up fifty taels of silver!

Judging from the current situation, the prize money will soon exceed 100!
They were so busy comparing their prize money that they didn't even feel the afterglow of actually killing the enemy; they were just too excited.

Their every move was reported in detail to the king's tent.

Inside the royal tent, even the battle-hardened generals were shaken after hearing this:

"The oldest one is not even seventeen years old, and he has only been with General Gan for three years. How were they trained? Are they all exceptionally gifted?"

"How utterly shameful! We're all personal guards, yet the difference between us is so vast! General Gan, how about I trade with you? One for ten? You can choose!"

"You son of a bitch, Zhao, how could you be so optimistic? General Gan, could you share your methods for training your personal guards with us? If you're willing to part with them, I'm willing to trade one for fifty."

When it comes to shamelessness, this group of killers is the best.

Their ugly faces made Emperor Qianwu, Zhao Muyun, facepalm and his lips twitch involuntarily.

But when he thought about how swiftly those fifty young men killed the Miao people inside the royal tent, he couldn't help but ponder.

What is the feasibility of having General Gan help him train his personal guards?
