The Prodigal Son

The next morning, Qin Yu and his men began their advance.

Before the main army set off, the people of Baojing Division had already been dispatched.

If they encounter a small group of enemies, the people from the Treasure Mirror Division can simply take care of them.

If they encounter a large enemy force, they should return to report.

Qin Yu was also among the Wudang Flying Cavalry led by Yuan Dingguo.

Originally, everyone was against this, but considering that Qin Yu had three ninth-realm experts protecting him, they didn't say anything more.

Moreover, with these three ninth-realm experts leading the charge, they can quickly deal with any enemy experts they encounter, minimizing casualties.

Not long after the army set out, Lü Si rode up to Qin Yu in a huff.

"Why are you acting like a complaining woman? Who ripped your anus open?"

Qin Yu looked at Lü Si with a half-smile.

Lu Si's eyes widened, and he said angrily, "Didn't you say you wanted me to be a thousand-man commander?"

"Yes, you're General Qian!"

Qin Yu was perfectly justified.

"What about my soldiers?"

Lu Si angrily questioned him.

Qin Yu laughed, "Aren't your guards your soldiers?"

"What family has a thousand generals but only twenty soldiers?" Lü Si was almost crying with anger.

Wronged!

That's so damn unfair!

So all that money I spent, 100,000 taels of silver, was just for the title of a general?

This is outrageous!

I could arrange for myself to have three to five hundred men!

"Have you ever seen a commander who only leads a little over ten thousand men?"

Qin Yu looked at Lü Si with righteous indignation, "My troops as the commander-in-chief are not even at full strength, and you expect to have them at full strength?"

"I……"

Lu Si was speechless for a moment, stammering for a long time, but he didn't know what to say. He just stared at Qin Yu with resentment.

His eyes looked as if he had been ravaged by a hundred burly men in turn.

"Okay, okay!"

Unable to bear Lü Si's gaze, Qin Yu reassured him, "When we capture prisoners later, I'll give you three to five hundred men. If you're not afraid to die, lead them into battle!"

Lu Si's face darkened, and he said indignantly, "You broke your promise!"

He's just trying to gain military merit!

We're not here to die!

"Speak properly!"

Qin Yu glared at Lü Si. "What do you mean by breaking your promise? Aren't you a thousand-man general now? When you lead your twenty soldiers into the enemy ranks, I'll write in the battle report that you are a thousand-man general, Lü Si, who led from the front and killed so many enemy soldiers. Isn't that enough to make you look good in front of your father?"

Faced with Qin Yu's PUA tactics, Lü Si couldn't help but ponder.

If he really wrote that in the battle report, it wouldn't be impossible.

His guards were certainly not as strong as Qin Yu's guards, but they were definitely much stronger than ordinary soldiers.

If they encounter enemy troops, they should be able to kill a hundred or so enemy soldiers without much trouble, right?

General Lü Si, with a thousand men, slew a hundred in battle!

That sounds pretty good!

However, he was still a little unwilling to be tricked by Qin Yu so willingly!

After hesitating for a moment, Lü Si negotiated with Qin Yu again: "Since you have so many experts protecting you, when we're in battle, lend me Qi Dachui! I'll treat him as one person worth a thousand men!"

"OK."

Qin Yu readily agreed, "Who told you to be the top fan?"

"Remember your words!"

Lu Si automatically ignored Qin Yu's sarcastic remarks, spurred his horse back to his guards, and roared menacingly, "Listen up, all of you! If we encounter the enemy, charge fast and kill them all! For every enemy killed, the reward is twenty... no, fifty taels of silver!"

Bleeding is fine!

Having already spent 100,000 taels of silver, why would I care about this little bit more?

I'll fight for pride, not steamed buns!

I'm going to make a big splash this time!

Upon hearing Lü Si's words, the twenty guards immediately became as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and their eyes lit up.

Speechless all the way.

Around noon, the scouts from the Baojing Division reported: "Reporting to Commander Qin, enemy troops have been spotted in an ambush at the mountain pass fifteen li ahead! Preliminary estimate suggests three to four thousand men!"

ambush?

A cold glint flashed in Qin Yu's eyes.

Did the Nuoli tribe want to ambush them?

As expected, they have no intention of surrendering!

If that's the case, then things are much easier!

After a moment's thought, Qin Yu immediately ordered, "Order Pei Du and Xu Wan not to attack for now! Wait until they see our main army before leading the Baojing Division to strike and disrupt the enemy's advance!"

"yes!"

The messenger immediately accepted the order and left.

"Order: Full force, launch a surprise attack! Prepare for battle!"

"yes!"

As soon as Qin Yu gave the order, three thousand Wudang Flying Cavalry immediately launched a surprise attack.

Upon learning that he was about to engage the enemy, Lü Si rode his horse at breakneck speed, fearing that he might miss this opportunity.

When they were less than two miles from the mountain pass ahead, the Baojing Division immediately launched their operation at the command of Pei Du and Xu Wan.

"kill!"

In an instant, the Baojing Division troops, who had been lying in ambush around the enemy forces, charged out.

brush!

Xu Wan and Pei Du took the lead, and with swift strokes of their swords, several enemies were already dead.

The members of the Baojing Division also acted without hesitation, rushing towards the enemy like hungry wolves.

Those who can enter the Treasure Mirror Division must be at least at the fifth realm in strength.

At this moment, they are hundreds of special forces soldiers.

Faced with this sudden attack, the enemy troops were thrown into chaos.

They could no longer afford to ambush the charging cavalry and could only hastily deal with the enemy forces in front of them.

"Quickly, fire the arrows!"

"Stop them!"

The enemy general roared, but they were now in complete chaos.

Pei Du's cold gaze fell on the enemy general, and he immediately leaped out, rushing straight towards the enemy general.

Although the hillside was rugged, Pei Du walked as if on flat ground.

With a flash of light, several enemy soldiers were cut down.

On the other side of the hillside, Xu Wan also led the Baojing Division's men in a rapid charge, raising waves of blood wherever they went.

Just as the two sides were engaged in fierce fighting, Qin Yu's troops also arrived.

"kill!"

Without Qin Yu giving the order, the Wudang cavalry dismounted and charged toward the enemy troops on both sides of the hillside.

Although they dismounted, their fighting strength remained formidable.

"Whoosh..."

A hail of arrows rained down, and the enemy troops, thrown into chaos, fell in large numbers.

"Rush!"

"Charge!"

"Take out a few more enemy soldiers!"

Lü Si cleverly hid next to Qin Yu, but shouted at his guards at the top of his lungs.

With Lü Si's generous reward, his guards charged forward with all their might, afraid of falling behind.

Qin Yu turned his head and saw that Lü Si's eyes were bloodshot, just like a bull in heat.

He seemed even more excited than if he were charging into battle himself.

"Why aren't you helping?"

Qin Yu looked at Lü Si with a smile.

"Aren't I helping?"

Lu Si answered confidently, roaring again, "Kill! Kill them all!"

Waving flags and shouting slogans, isn't that also a form of helping?

Even if you don't make things worse, aren't you still helping?

On both sides of the hillside, the battle continued, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

This was a battle with no suspense whatsoever.

With the arrival of the Wudang Flying Cavalry, the enemy army, whose weapons were crude and inadequate, quickly collapsed...
