Yuan Zhoulu and a few secret guards tiptoed onto the big tent, quietly waiting for Feng Juxu's instructions.

"Quickly gather the cavalry and bring back those innocent women from Dafeng. If no one tries to stop us, then fine. If anyone does, use force to stop them."

Originally, Feng Juxu wanted to say that it was nothing to do, but who could guarantee that there were any males among the Huns who were good at martial arts?

In addition to the Huns' inherent love of force, there is another important factor that allowed them to raise such a strong group of people -

Both male and female Xiongnu people knew some martial arts, and women should be treated like ordinary women.

Fortunately, the first lesson for the secret guards since they entered the secret guard camp was to not take it lightly and to be on high alert.

Led by Yuan Zhoulu, the secret guards rushed into the Huns' lair and brought back all the women without much effort.

Although there were some minor scares during the process, fortunately there was no danger.

Yuan Zhoulu was even more decisive, and brought back an upside-down woman on horseback.

"I have brought back the old Xiongnu woman! It is this old woman who is behind all this and is causing trouble!"

The old Xiongnu woman was very angry and started to speak fluently.

"You are the old hag! Your whole family is old hags! I am the witch worshipped by all the Xiongnu people, a witch who can reach the ears of the gods!"

Yuan Zhoulu didn't care and slapped her hard on the head.

"You are so powerful, why don't you ask God why he didn't tell you when you would die? How come you didn't know this disaster would happen today?"

"A charlatan is a charlatan, and he's an old hag who's not good at cheating!"

Yuan Zhoulu's mouth was indeed irritating, and Feng Juxu enjoyed listening to Yuan Zhoulu's nonsense.

I don’t know if it’s Jin’er’s credit, but every secret guard who has been with her for a period of time will learn something from her, more or less.

A group of crying girls, who had just left the Huns' territory, were celebrating their luck. But when they arrived at the Huns' marching tent, some of the timid girls had fainted.

"You can kill me or chop me up as you please. If you dare to do anything unlawful to us, I will not let you go even if I become a ghost!"

Feng Juxu raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced sideways at Yuan Zhoulu.

Yuan Zhoulu understood immediately and scratched his head in confusion.

"I didn't explain. I was busy catching that old hag."

He hurriedly took a few steps forward and bowed deeply to the women.

"I'm sorry, I didn't explain clearly. Everyone here is from Dafeng. You are safe."

"It will take some time to clean up the battlefield. The girls will come back to the city with us to avoid encountering lone Xiongnu on the road, which would be disadvantageous to you."

The woman who spoke looked at Yuan Zhoulu seriously, then looked around at everyone.

Seeing that everyone looked normal, unlike the Huns whose facial features were too three-dimensional, he realized that he had made a big mistake and blushed in embarrassment.

"You gentlemen did not take it to heart. Instead, I was the one who spoke too harshly. Please do not take it to heart."

"Although we can't do much to help, we can still do some mending and other things. I wonder if we can stay near the barracks after we return, even if it's just to do some small things for the soldiers within our ability."

Yuan Zhoulu was shocked and blurted out.

"Are you all orphans? Without a home?"

Feng Juxu knocked Yuan Zhoulu's head hard, his eyes full of disapproval.

"Girls, don't take it to heart. Mr. Yuan is not a bad person at heart, he's just a bit straightforward."

It was still the girl who stood up to speak, smiled and waved her hand, standing in front of the girls to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"You are joking, my lords. If someone could go deep into the Xiongnu crowd and save us from danger, he is certainly not a bad person. But we were abducted by the Xiongnu after all, so our reputation must have been ruined."

"Even if nothing happened to us, our neighbors won't believe it. Rather than going back home and waiting to die of illness or spend the rest of our lives in seclusion, it's better to stay near the military camp and express our gratitude to the soldiers with practical actions."

Feng Juxu understood what she meant and missed Hua Sijin even more.

If Jin'er was here, it would not be difficult to settle these women. But it was not easy for a grown man like him to settle a group of women.

Yuan Zhoulu's mind was working quickly. He knew that what he had just said was too straightforward and would most likely embarrass the girls.

When he heard this, he immediately took up the conversation and tried to make amends.

"My father and mother are both from here. My mother is keeping the families of the soldiers near the military camp. It is not difficult to provide these girls with a place to stay."

Feng Juxu nodded with satisfaction, "I'll leave this matter to you to negotiate with your mother. In addition to arranging a place for them to live, you also have to find a way for them to make a living."

Yuan Zhoulu scratched his head and smiled innocently.

"There are many rough men in our barracks. On weekdays, when we are marching, fighting or preparing for war, our clothes are often torn. We are all big and strong, and sewing is a pain in the ass."

"Mother often complains that there are too many broken clothes to sew. I think with so many girls joining in, mother will have fewer headaches."

The girls were naturally very excited and kept thanking him.

Some were so excited that they knelt on the ground and cried.

Feng Juxu just stretched out his hand, but suddenly he stepped back and quickly put it behind his back.

Fortunately, the person behind him reacted quickly, otherwise he would have been hit by Feng Juxu accidentally.

Yuan Zhoulu understood it at a glance. Although he secretly laughed at Feng Juxu for being a henpecked husband, he still stood up resolutely and offered his hand to support Feng Juxu.

"Okay, okay, we'll talk about it after we get back. You guys must be hungry too, right? We'll have meat to eat when we get back."

Feng Juxu narrowed his eyes and asked, "If I ask you to rescue people, will you really just rescue people?"

Yuan Zhoulu slapped his forehead and grinned foolishly.

"You were in a hurry to come back just now, so I will take my men back to grab the sheep right now!"

The girl who was standing in the front came out again. "My lords, please settle them down for the time being. I know that place well. Besides the sheep, we need to bring back some more things."

Feng Juxu nodded slightly, and Yuan Zhoulu agreed with a smile.

"You look very weak, so don't ride alone. Don't worry, I won't take advantage of you!"

The girl in the lead smiled and had a liking for the short man.

With the help of Yuan Zhoulu, he climbed onto the horse and felt the man's presence surrounding him from behind. He felt both nervous and relieved.

"My surname is Mi, and my maiden name is Ke Ru. May I know what your address is, sir?"

Yuan Zhoulu thought that the girl was afraid of embarrassment and was just trying to find something to say, so he quickly responded to comfort her.
