What truly worried him was not the loss of his son Han Yong De, but the fact that Han Yong De had led a thousand men against Zhao Yu, and only two hundred returned, all looking like they had suffered a defeat.
Could it be that they were defeated?
This was a far more serious matter than the death of a son!
“A thousand tech points credited!1‘
Zhao Yu looked delightedly at his system interface, pondering how to spend
the newly acquired thousand tech points.
The abandoned town had been cleaned up, with all useful items taken and traces cleared.
The expeditionary force was now heading back.
This time, the casualties on his side were few, only 10.
Zhao Yu decided to bring back the bodies of these soldiers, as they had chips implanted in them that could give away information to the Han family if discovered.
He planned to recycle their bodies in the recycling furnace.
As they didn’t need such precautions on the return journey unlike before as
they needed to conceal their movements.
They returned at full speed.
In just a few hours, the team reached the camp.
Entering the camp, everyone was stunned.
Zhao Yu had led his troops to war, but how could he return in just one day?!
Under everyone’s gaze, Zhao Yu stood atop the vehicle and declared loudly:
“Great victory!”
“With only 2,000, we have annihilated 3,000 enemies, achieving a complete victory!”
“Congratulations to Zhao Family Town!”
The crowd erupted into cheers!
People were shocked, followed by jubilation.
“Congratulations to Mayor Zhao on his triumphant return!
“Congratulations to General Zhao!”
“Long live General Zhao!”
“Long live Zhao Family Town!”
The cheers were endless, with loud roars.
Who they fought against, the people didn’t know; they only knew that Zhao Yu represented Zhao Family Town.
The stronger Zhao Yu was, their lives will be more peaceful.
They didn’t want to lose this hard-earned life.
The people of Meng House Village were even more thrilled.
Not long ago, Meng Xian, had informed them about the wager with Zhao Yu.
If Zhao Yu won, they would join him.
Now, didn’t that mean they could get a job and a salary like the people of Zhao Family Town.
Time to enjoy this peaceful era?
Immediately, both the people of Zhao Family Town and Meng House Village cheered loudly.
Zhao Yu, unusually happy, raised his hand to quiet them.
Instantly, the crowd fell silent.
Everyone stared at him intently.
Zhao Yu announced loudly: “To celebrate this great victory, a grand feast will
be held today, all food and drinks are free!”
Wow!
This was an even more exhilarating news than defeating the 3,000 enemies.
After all, defeating the enemy only was like a movie to the unrelated residents.
But a grand feast with free food and drinks was a real benefit.
“Long live General Zhao!”
“Congratulations to General Zhao!”
Many shouted continuously, and some even knelt down on the spot.
Among the cheers and jubilation, Zhao Yu led his troop slowly entering through the east gate.
In the crowd, Meng Xian looked at Zhao Yu with a face full of admire.
Compared to his military achievements, she was more astonished by Zhao Yu s popularity.
With just a few words, he had won everyone’s heart.
A hero!
Truly a hero in his own right!
At this moment, Meng Xian finally realized that Zhao Yu was different from
her.
At best, she could only be a minor leader, while Zhao Yu was a born ruler.
A natural hero.
As long as he lived, he would achieve great things in this apocalyptic world.
Meng Xian’s previously unsettled heart gradually calmed down.
She thought after dedicating herself to Zhao Yu might not be such a bad thing.
But then, her expression turned to worry.
Across from her, the three Xu sisters also showed faces of admiration.
This…
How could she face those three?!
Meng Xian didn’t dare to linger in front of the sisters and quietly left the crowd.
“Eh?”
“Sister Meng, why are you wearing a skirt today?!
Xiao Liu looked at Meng Xian with a face full of surprise.
He never expected Meng Xian, dressed as a woman will be so beautiful.
Meng Xian always wore combat gear and although she looked valiant, she lacked a feminine touch.
But now, lightly made up and wearing a long skirt fluttering in the wind, she seemed like a fairy descending to the mortal world.
A beauty beyond description.
Meng Xian was thinking about her upcoming night with Zhao Yu and smiled.
This scene, like a beauty stepping out of a painting, left Xiao Liu and others like Eagle spellbound.
Too beautiful!
If they could win Meng Xian’s heart, it would make their life worthwhile!
Xiao Liu, unable to contain his excitement, trembled, “Sister Meng, may I have the honor of inviting you to watch a movie?!”
In the commercial district, after a few days of development, they had set up a projector and screening equipment.
Although expensive and with mostly old movies, it was still very popular.
“Hehe!”
Meng Xian covered her mouth and giggled, “I’m not free today, I’ve plans with the Xu sisters…”
“Okay then…”
Xiao Liu immediately showed a look of disappointment.
But they didn’t think too much about it; after all, it was a girls’ outing, how could they bring men along?
Eagle, however, was not ready to give up. He coughed and brazenly said, “Sister, if you’re going shopping, you might need someone to carry your things, right?!”
“Go away!”
