Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

The next afternoon at dusk.

Gu Chan and her group of five, with the farewell of everyone in the clinic, took a carriage to the Zhongyuan camp.

After they left, Liu Xueer said goodbye to everyone and returned to the Liu family.

Ouyang Wan'er and Zi Yue stood at the gate, watching the departing carriage, unable to let go for a long time.

Originally they had all decided last night that they must serve Gu Chan well and continue the Gu family's bloodline, but unexpectedly they suddenly fell asleep last night for some reason and nothing happened.

Don’t even mention how worried and resentful they are at this moment.

It was not until the carriage disappeared around the corner of the avenue ahead that Ouyang Wan'er sighed and said, "My husband! I really hope that we can win this battle and that you can return safely. Otherwise, as your legal wife, I will feel extremely guilty."

"Okay, God will bless you with good fortune. Our Tiancang country will definitely win this time, don't worry! Now we just need to take good care of the family and wait for our husband to return safely." Zi Yue said comfortingly.

Ouyang Wan'er nodded sadly.

Then the two of them calmed down, returned to the clinic, and went about their own business.

After dark, Gu Chan and the other four arrived at the Zhongyuan camp.

What was different from usual was that at this moment in the camp, all the generals and soldiers were ready to go.

Xuanyuan Qing also changed his previous sloppy appearance, put on a handsome golden armor, stood on the command building to give a speech, and started the so-called pre-war mobilization.

After the speech, the grain and fodder camp set out at night, escorting carts of grain and fodder.

Gu Chan muttered to herself, "So this is what they call 'food and fodder go before troops move'!"

"Boss, is it time for us to change our armor?" Ma Zheng asked in a low voice.

"Let's change! The Ninth Prince is cruel and ruthless, with a changeable temperament. He said he would set out for the expedition early tomorrow morning, but he might have to set off tonight. We'd better change our clothes in advance and be prepared." Gu Chan said.

After saying that, she immediately called a female soldier and took Ma Zheng and the other three to the barracks to change into their battle uniforms.

As soon as the four of them left, a soldier in silver armor ran over and said, "Manager Gu, the Ninth Prince asked you to go to the meeting hall."

"Okay, I understand." Gu Chan nodded.

Then she quickly ran towards the command building.

After a while, she arrived at the meeting hall on the top floor.

When she came in, she found that Tian Ying, Tian Bao, Tian He, Xue Lihua, Ren Nanshan and other important generals of the Central Plains Camp had already been sitting on both sides of the lobby waiting.

In the middle of the lobby, there stood a wooden frame, on which hung a suit of silver armor shining with white light. It was truly dazzling, and one glance at it made people feel that this suit of armor was so cool and beautiful!

Xuanyuan Qing, wearing golden armor, sat in the first seat, staring at Gu Chan who came in and said, "How is it, do you like it?"

"What? Is this silver armor prepared for me?" Gu Chan said blankly.

"Nonsense, this was specially ordered by this prince to be tailor-made for you. Otherwise, do you think I have been playing around for the past seven days?" Xuanyuan Qing said unhappily.

Gu Chan was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She quickly ran to the silver armor, reached out and touched the armor, carefully feeling the workmanship and texture of the armor.

Ok!

She admitted that Xuanyuan Qing was indeed very popular with girls.

This set of silver armor is made of top-grade fine iron. It can be regarded as a top-notch craft in terms of both manufacturing process and quality.

Armor of such top-notch craftsmanship could not be easily made even by old blacksmiths like her grandfather Zhang Wanshan and Ma Zheng’s grandmother Ding Meihua.

In other words, Xuanyuan Qing privately found the top craftsmen in Zhongyuan City to tailor this armor specifically for her, which made her very happy!

After understanding all this, Gu Chan stared at Xuanyuan Qing and asked, "How much silver did you spend?"

"Not much, just 50,000 taels of silver." Xuanyuan Qing said nonchalantly.

"You really are worthy of being the second generation of the royal family! You are so generous. No wonder so many rich and beautiful women in Zhongyuan City like you." Gu Chan laughed and joked.

Xuanyuan Qing waved his hand unhappily and said, "Alright, stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and put on your armor. You will lead the vanguard troops to go out early tonight. Tomorrow morning, I will lead the main force to support the battle."

"Yes, Ninth Prince." Gu Chan said, clasping his fists and bowing.

Then she quickly took off her armor, held it, ran to a small room on the right side of the lobby, and began to put it on.

Xuanyuan Qing ignored her and looked at the generals present and said, "Whoever wants to lead the vanguard with Gu Chan, please step forward and volunteer."

"Ninth Prince, General Xue Lihua is willing to lead the charge with Deputy General Gu."

"General Ren Nanshan is also willing to lead the expedition with Vice General Gu."

As expected, Xue Lihua and Ren Nanshan were the first to stand up and volunteer.

Tian Ying and the others just sat there motionless. No one wanted to go with Gu Chan and get involved in this muddy water. And most importantly, they already disliked Gu Chan and didn't believe that a kid like Gu Chan could lead troops to fight.

In their eyes, Gu Chan was the one leading people to die, so of course they were unwilling to follow her.

Xuanyuan Qing looked around at the generals, his face turned pale, he said nothing, and was filled with anger.

At this time, Gu Chan changed into silver armor and walked out of the hut happily.

She stood next to Xue Lihua and Ren Nanshan, opened her arms and turned around, saying, "Everyone, look at me in this new outfit. Am I handsome? Am I powerful?"

The generals were silent and no one paid any attention to her.

Xue Lihua and Ren Nanshan were standing nearby, extremely nervous, and were actually sweating for her in their hearts!

After all, those who have been to the battlefield know that the so-called vanguard troops are the ones who engage in battle with the enemy first, and if they fail to do so, the entire army may be wiped out.

Gu Chan had never been to the battlefield and didn't understand any of this, otherwise how could she have the leisure to stand here and show off the silver armor worth fifty thousand taels of silver!

Gu Chan also realized that something was wrong, and turned around to look at Xuanyuan Qing and asked, "What's wrong with everyone?"

"Deputy General Gu, the war is about to start. How come you don't have any sense of crisis and are still so leisurely?" Xuanyuan Qing reminded him coldly.

"Let's fight! What are you afraid of? Anyway, once you are on the battlefield, life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are in the hands of God. It's useless for me to be anxious! It's better to keep a good attitude!" Gu Chan said with his hands spread out.

Xuanyuan Qing covered his face with his hands and was left speechless by Gu Chan.

Xue Lihua hurriedly whispered, "Gu Chan, stop making trouble. Apart from the two of us, no general is willing to lead the vanguard with you! How can you still laugh?"

"Yes! Without a lieutenant general to give you advice and a general to lead you in battle, if the vanguard troops encounter the enemy first, how will you fight this battle?" Ren Nanshan also reminded anxiously.

Gu Chan was stunned when she heard this, and then she realized that Tian Ying and others were here to take revenge on her!
