Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn
Chapter 22: The Ghost-Faced Husband
The battle lasted from morning till dusk, and only stopped when the barbarians retreated to the other side of the river. The battlefield was littered with corpses, like hell.
Lin Xiao walked over and said weakly: "Boss, two people in our team died. Hey, this is war, it's so cruel..."
His eyes fell on the back of his boss, and the heads of the series of barbarian soldiers who died with their eyes open. For some reason, he couldn't bring himself to say the sad words. It seemed that his boss was even more cruel than war.
My eyes hurt, so I looked away and didn’t want to look anymore.
"Boss, why don't you say anything? I know you must be upset about the death of so many people in the war, but we won the first battle, and that's the most worthy thing..."
"Ok??"
Jiang Li turned his head and looked over, chewing a steamed bun with a confused look in his eyes: "What are you doing? You are just chanting like Tang Seng. It is normal for people to die on the battlefield. Two people died in our team, what about the other teams?"
Lin Xiao blinked his eyes. Okay, he was just being too sentimental. The boss, who only cared about food, would never be afraid because of too many deaths on the battlefield. If he had to be afraid, it should be the enemy who was afraid of him.
"Of the other vanguard troops, about 30% of them died. Hey, our group had the least casualties. This is all thanks to the good teaching of the boss. They are all lethal moves and save energy."
"If you have no strength on the battlefield, you will just be waiting for death."
Jiang Li was full, so he stood up, dragging the head behind him, and strode towards the military camp: "Let's go, what are you still standing there for."
Lin Xiao ran forward and said, "Boss, where are you going? Are you going to see the Major General? Do you need me to accompany you?"
"Shut up and leave. You don't need it."
After saying that, he walked away quickly, leaving Lin Xiao standing there, looking at his back with resentful eyes. Someone patted his shoulder heavily, and said unhappily: "Wang Meng, what are you doing? Do you know that patting someone's shoulder for no reason will scare them to death?"
Wang Meng said seriously, "You are not even afraid of the boss, how can you be afraid of ghosts? Let's go. It's their job to clean up the battlefield. We are tired after a day, so it's time to go back and rest."
"Oh, I'm so exhausted. If it weren't for the boss, we would have died here today. The skills he gave us are all real. I will definitely treat the boss to a drink some other day when I have time."
"...The boss won't go back. He is only interested in food, not wine."
Lin Xiao winked and said, "Hey, Mengzi, after the first battle, both armies need to rest for a while. How about we take the boss out to have some fun? He looks like a rookie. How about that?"
"Ouch, why did you hit me on the head?"
Wang Meng snorted, "Are you sure the boss likes women? Didn't he just say he likes food? Then why don't we buy food for him? Forget about women."
"If the Major General finds out, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain myself."
"Oh, you don't understand this. Our young general is a clean man. That's him. There is no man who doesn't like women. If there is, it must be that he has never tasted the taste of women."
Lin Xiao hooked his shoulder and smiled evilly: "I tell you, Boss must have never tasted it, so he is only interested in food. Oh, women are much more delicious than food, hehe~~~"
When Wang Meng heard his obscene laugh, his face darkened.
"It's up to you. Then go find the boss. I'll only pay you. Don't say it was me who asked you to go. If you get into trouble, you'll get beaten by the boss."
"No, you will understand the goodness of women after you have tasted them once."
When Jiang Li returned to the barracks, the guards saw the string of heads rolling on the ground behind him. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they said tremblingly, "Captain Wang, what are you going to do?"
"Hmm? I want to exchange the head for food with the Major General. If you don't believe me, just go and ask him yourself. Can you please not waste my time? After recording the military merits, I still need to wash up and rest."
"...Okay, wait a minute, I'll go report it."
Jiang Li stood there feeling somewhat bored. The smell of blood all over her body made her feel a little irritated. Humans are just that kind of race, fighting each other all the time.
If it weren't for this, how could there be the end of the world in the previous life? It was so difficult for human beings to survive, and life was so hard. I don't know how my comrades were doing, and whether they were living a better life.
Oh, it would be great if everyone could come here, but unfortunately... we can’t.
The guard came out and lowered his head: "Centurion, the major general asked you to go in. If there are any heads left, please let me take them."
Jiang Li untied the rope around his waist and handed it over: "Here you go, I've counted them all, a total of 108, not one less, you must take them well, these can all be exchanged for food."
"… Don't worry, Centurion. Not a single one will be lost."
Lifting the tent and meeting that pair of clear eyes, Jiang Li blinked and said loudly: "Greetings, Major General. I wonder if the heads exchanged for food still counts."
Mo Yuan curled his lips and said, "Of course it counts. Sit down and have some food together."
Jiang Li looked down at the blood stains on his body, sniffing the strong smell of blood, and was a little conflicted: "I still... No, I want to go back and wash up first, and then have a good rest."
"It's okay, sit down and eat, it's a good opportunity to chat."
"OK then."
"Xiao San, this is your first time on the battlefield. Are you scared? If you have a nightmare, you can go to Taohua Town during your few days off and relax. There are a lot of fun things there."
Mo Yuan looked at him with a barely perceptible worry. Many of those who went to the battlefield for the first time were fine at the time, but later had nightmares and their brains became a little abnormal.
Jiang Li looked blank: "What, Major General, can you explain it more clearly? I don't understand."
"Nothing, you must be hungry, let's eat first, or we can talk while we eat."
"In this first battle, Xiao San, you have made great military achievements. The reward is different. You will have ten days off. Do you have any place you want to go? If not, you can go to Taohua Town with me."
Jiang Li understood and turned to look at him: "Major General, I understand. You are afraid that I will go to the battlefield and get scared and go crazy, right? No, don't worry. I was born with a missing string and don't know what fear is."
"As long as there's food, there's nothing I can't handle. As for Taohua Town, well, there are a lot of delicious food."
Mo Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth and revealed a faint smile.
"If you are not afraid, I will be relieved. If you are willing to go, I will provide you with food and drink. Do you want to go?"
Jiang Li swallowed her saliva. Since they were treating her, there was no reason for her not to go. She nodded repeatedly, "Major General, I'm willing to go. As long as I don't have to spend money, I'll go wherever you say."
Gongzi Yu sneered, and the two of them looked at him in unison, with a somewhat puzzled look in their eyes. This guy is so annoying, why is he laughing for no reason?
