Chapter 329: Inviting Him Into The Trap
Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
This morning, Rong Yan’s work efficiency was extremely high. He even went to the kitchen to help in the afternoon, but Xiaoxiao did not reject him. She planned to cook braised rice for everyone today and prepare a sufficient amount of vegetable soup. There was not much fresh meat. Other than the small amount of beast meat obtained from hunting, there was only some jerky left in the kitchen.
It was definitely not enough to replenish the soldiers’ nutrition.
Of course, such a small matter was not a problem for Xiaoxiao, who carried a cheater with her. She glanced at Rong Yan, who was chopping meat enthusiastically for some reason. When she turned around and poured the minced meat into the pot, she used her back to cover herself and waved her hand to sneak into the space.
Yun Er, who did not know much about the kitchen, glanced over occasionally and felt a little puzzled. “Why do I feel that the more the meat is stir-fried, the more it becomes?”
Xiaoxiao was very calm and replied naturally, “It’s our Little Big Brother’s cutting skills that are good. He can only distribute them evenly if he chops them meticulously.”
Yun Er didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to see Master smile and become even more energetic!
If the conditions allowed it, Xiaoxiao also wanted everyone to eat meat in big mouthfuls. However, now, vegetable braised meat rice was the food that could hide the true meat content the most and was the most convenient for the soldiers to replenish their strength. Before it was time to eat, the fragrance that wafted out of the kitchen stove was so strong that it was difficult to resist. Even the deputy generals who were training could not help but feel hungry and secretly came to the kitchen several times.
Xiaoxiao calculated the time and asked Rong Yan, “Why don’t we start eating early today? It’s better to eat the braised rice while it’s hot.” Actually, even if the deputy generals didn’t come, she planned to find an excuse to bring forward the meal.
Rong Yan, who was facing the fragrance, also felt that he could not let down this fragrant braised rice, so he agreed decisively. Xiaoxiao smiled and scooped a bowl for him first. Then, she said casually, “Oh right, did you gain anything from the trap I made? Is it convenient for you to get someone to help me take a look later?”
Yun San volunteered and said that his Qinggong was good and that it would not delay anything.
Xiaoxiao naturally agreed and even specially added a spoonful of her own side dish for him.
Today’s lunch looked very simple, but there were actually vegetables, meat, rice, and soup. There was an unlimited amount of soup made with dehydrated vegetables and soup stock ingredients. After drinking it, a new pot could be produced immediately. Everyone ate very contentedly. They just felt that the meat in the bowl was especially chopped up. Some of them could almost fuse with the rice.
However, m this way, the food was really fragrant. The soldiers felt that they had not eaten so comfortably for a long time.
The soldiers thought that this was to save money or to let everyone taste meat. However, Yun Er, who had accompanied and witnessed the entire process, could only chuckle.
He even mustered his courage to ask Rong Yan, who had been unhappy the entire day. “Since Master minds so much, why don’t you tell Miss Ning?” Rong Yan looked up at him. “What’s there to say? It’s just random speculation.” “Besides, Xiaoxiao did everything for the soldiers. It would be disrespectful to her if I were to be calculative.”
Yun Er looked enlightened and complained in his heart. You understand the logic, so don’t be angry!
As he spoke, Yun San, who had returned, rushed in anxiously. “Master, there’s something wrong with the Xiongnu!”
He had eaten quickly just now, so he went to help Miss Xiaoxiao see the traps earlier. Unexpectedly, he discovered that there were Xiongnus lying in ambush nearby. Those guys actually circled to the back without anyone knowing and had ill intentions. Yun San relied on his concealment ability to sneak over and actually heard them say that they were going to attack the city gate from both inside and outside later!
Rong Yan was holding back his anger. When he heard this, he immediately gathered his deputy generals in a low profile manner. The Xiongnus wanted to catch them off guard, so they cooperated and caught them in a trap.
Yun San said angrily, “These bastards have been looking for trouble at night the past few times. Today, they actually changed it to broad daylight and deliberately stuck at mealtime! If we hadn’t eaten in advance today, if I hadn’t gone to show Miss Xiaoxiao the trap, wouldn’t I have fallen into their trap?” Xiaoxiao sighed in relief, but her heart tightened.
She was relieved that everyone might be able to successfully avoid a calamity What was most important was that what she saw in her previous dreams was actually true. Today, while the soldiers at the border were exhausted, Xiongnu took advantage of the situation and attacked the city. He slaughtered tens of thousands of soldiers and commoners and carved a colorful and humiliating chapter in the history of Great Xia.
She took a deep breath and clenched her fists. ‘Not this time.’
In the past few nights, when it was late at night, she thought of a way to stroll near the sleeping soldiers and use space projection to change the flow of time so that they could rest well.
20 times slower was enough for everyone to replenish the energy they had lost some time ago.
Moreover, the food that Xiaoxiao brought in the name of “Mr. Yuan” was not everything she could take out. As long as she had the opportunity, she would move more out of her space. The cooks in the kitchen only felt that the food was really lasting, but they would never have thought that this thing had an unlimited refill function.
The current Great Xia army would not lose!
Xiaoxiao snickered. Moreover, the Xiongnus thought that victory was in their hands, but they did not know that Great Xia had really come prepared.
Just as she had expected, when the Xiongnu people gathered in a hidden place, their minds were filled with thoughts of what would happen after they won. The second prince had said that the number of enemies killed would count as military merits after the battle. Later, as long as they cut off the ears on the corpses of the Great Xia soldiers, they could go back and exchange them for credit!
It was said that the commander-in-chief of the army was a prince. Then, they would be able to ask the Emperor for a lot of gold, silver, and treasures after breaking through the city gates of Great Xia, right?
The place where the Xiongnu gathered was a natural barrier. They had spent a lot of effort to build a stairway here. Although not many people could come at once, as long as they could successfully infiltrate the back of Great Xia and catch them off guard, victory would be at their fingertips!
Good thoughts kept sprouting, but the Xiongnu people did not know that hundreds of meters away from them, the Great Xia soldiers were paying attention to the enemy’s movements while… uh… peeing…
A recruit asked his senior for advice in confusion. “Since we already know where the Xiongnu people are, why don’t we just kill our way over and wait here?”
The veteran smacked his lips. “Third Prince said that he wants to invite them into his trap. Do you know what this word means?”
The recruit shook his head. “If I knew, I would have taken the imperial examination long ago.”
The veteran smacked his lips again. “Actually, I don’t understand either. The gist is to set a trap and wait for the Xiongnu people to enter. This time, we saw through Xiongnu’s evil plan long ago. If we charge over now, we can indeed ruin their plan. However, if we pretend not to know, we can beat them at their own game. Wouldn’t we be able to capture this group of annoying things in one fell swoop?”
Seeing that the recruits still did not understand, the veteran changed his words. “It means that if we only scare them away this time, they will still be annoying tomorrow and attack from time to time. However, if we take the opportunity to beat them down in one go, the Xiongnus will be able to behave for a long time.”
The recruit understood, but he was still curious about something. “But what does this have to do with us peeing so much?”
The veteran revealed a sly smile. “You’ll see..”
