Aiyo, the topic had already been drawn out. Wouldn’t they be letting down Xiongnu’s stupidity if they didn’t pick it up?
“Are we bragging? Do you want to take a look for yourselves?”
Dean Lu took out Xiaoxiao’s new Clairvoyant and handed it to Chernan, who had been silent since the beginning.
Chernan didn’t say anything at first because he felt that this group of sour scholars wasn’t worthy.
Later on, he felt that a good show was about to happen and wanted to see the frustrated and angry expressions of the people of Great Xia. At the same time, he seized the opportunity to add insult to injury. Even if he could not turn the tables, he had to take advantage of the alliance. For example, he did not want to give up the iron mine.
Then, he was afraid that he would vomit blood when he opened his mouth.
However, that Great Xia soldier was not calm at all. He insisted on explaining such a big matter in detail and his tone was too boastful.
“Officials, gentlemen, you don’t know how unlucky the Southern Barbarians are. They think that their whereabouts are secretive, but they didn’t know that they have long been discovered by us. Hahaha, what’s even funnier is that they were actually swept into the pit by the sandstorm!”
“Although they didn’t fall to their deaths, their formation was already in a mess when our people arrived. Coincidentally, the sandstorm seemed to be the heavens helping us. The sandstorm went into the distance as soon as our soldiers arrived. The Southern Barbarians were frightened out of their wits when they opened their eyes and saw us. They shouted, ‘What the hell!”‘
“Moreover, hehehe, halfway through the battle, General Xiao also brought her troops back. Coincidentally, we attacked from both inside and outside, making it impossible for the Southern Barbarians to retreat!”
“When the Southern Barbarians saw General Xiao, they were like rats seeing a cat. Before they even started fighting, their morale had already been extinguished. They shrank back and wanted to escape after a while. How could General Xiao let them escape? If they dare to offend Great Xia, they have to be prepared to pay a painful price! Those Southern Barbarians were completely wiped out!”
He spoke vividly, and the people of Great Xia applauded and cheered. The Xiongnu people only wanted to cover their ears. Chernan tried to divert their attention, so he weighed the unknown thing that Dean Lu gave him.
Ning Ansheng took the initiative to help him adjust his posture and make his eyes look into the Clairvoyant.
Chernan sneered. “What the heck? I can’t even see a fart.”
Ning Ansheng helped him to change direction good-naturedly. When Chernan saw an unknown bird suddenly flit across his vision, he was so shocked that he almost cried out in embarrassment.
He put down the Clairvoyant and narrowed his eyes to look into the distance. He picked up the Clairvoyant and turned it to look into the distance.
The view here was excellent. If he got the right direction, he could see the stones on the ground outside the city.
Ning Ansheng told him, “This is the basic version. There is also a special version specially used by the military. Its range of vision and visibility is even higher. That’s how the Southern Barbarians were discovered. Oh, I forgot to mention that your Xiongnu spies were also caught because of this.”
He sighed. “Why don’t you go back and discuss it? Don’t bother to send people to spy on us in the future? Anyway, you can’t escape our Clairvoyants. We can capture anyone who comes. To you, this is equal to sending men for us to kill. This is a stupid thing to do. Second Prince, don’t you think so?”
The second prince did not want to speak. The second prince wanted to kill someone.
The Xiongnu people returned in defeat again. Moreover, they had a premonition that they would be even more at a disadvantage at the negotiation table tomorrow—it was completely the opposite of what the second prince said.
After a night of discussion, the Great Xia negotiating team decided to take an even tougher route tomorrow because the Xiongnu b*stards were clearly unwilling to give up until they saw the coffin.
At this moment, Xiaoxiao was being hugged and caressed by her mother.
“Good daughter, your Clairvoyant is very useful. It saved the soldiers a lot of effort. After the warning, they also saw through many of Xiongnu’s schemes!”
Xiaoxiao asked her, “Mother, why did you suddenly come back?”
Xiao Ran waved her hand. “The war has already come to an end. Deputy General Xiong is a promising talent. It’s more than enough to let him guard the city. We just need to wait for the Xiongnu prince to leave his handprint on the covenant and we can go home together.”
Xiaoxiao smiled. “Are you so sure that the Xiongnu people will admit defeat obediently?”
Xiao Ran’s eyes were filled with killing intent. “Le them try denying it.”
Not only did Xiaoxiao think that her mother was sauve, but Gu Chang’an, who had just changed his clothes, could not take his eyes off her.
Ever since many years ago, Xiao Ran narrowly escaped death, gave birth to Xiaoxiao alone on the battlefield and unfortunately lost Xiaoxiao, he and Xiao Ran had agreed that they would never be separated again. Hence, he went wherever Xiao Ran went. He did not know if other couples would get sick of each other, but he felt that Xiao Ran attracted his attention more and more day after day.
Xiao Ran asked, “What do you think of the three princes of Xiongnu?”
This was serious business. He had to answer seriously.
Rong Yan said first, “On the surface, the First Prince has the best reputation and is polite to the wise. He also has the best reputation in Xiongnu. The Second Prince is cruel and kills people. Although he’s currently in a high position, the people are the most dissatisfied with him. The Third Prince doesn’t participate in the power struggle and doesn’t want the throne. He never ropes in the rich and powerful and only wants to go against the Second Prince.” Xiao Ran smiled. “In reality?”
Rong Yan’s face darkened. “In fact, the First Prince is scheming and obtained the most support without batting an eyelid. It’s said that he was the one who wanted to inherit the throne the most before the King of Xiongnu died. The Second Prince is a boorish man who doesn’t like to use his brain much, but he thinks highly of himself and thinks that he’s peerless in the world. As for the Third Prince…”
Xiao Ran took the tea made by her husband and poured Rong Yan a cup. “How’s the Third Prince?”
Rong Yan said, “I think the Third Prince is the one who can’t be underestimated among the three heirs to the throne of Xiongnu.”
Xiao Ran asked him to “specify”.
Rong Yan said, “It isn’t a rumor that the Second Prince wants to kill his brothers openly and covertly for the throne. He is hard-hearted and ruthless to his blood relatives. However, even after a bunch of his brothers died,and the First Prince, who can’t be underestimated, was tricked, the Third Prince, who seems to be the most playful, is actually alive and well.”
“The First Prince almost lost his life with so many guards and personal guards. It can’t be luck that the Third Prince escaped unscathed.”
Xiaoxiao only pursed her lips. “I think all of them are not good people.”
Xiao Ran nodded and took out a letter for them to read.
Inexperienced Great Xia words were written crookedly on the letter: “The Southern Barbarians want to attack the border city.”
Xiao Ran said, “I suddenly came back because someone sent me this letter.”
“Guess who gave me this letter?”
Rong Yan’s expression was heavy. The two of them were able to discuss important military matters with ease, so Xiaoxiao went to busy herself with internal affairs with Father. Gu Chang’an smiled in relief when he heard that Xiaoxiao’s experimental field had expanded again and the seeds distributed to the commoners had sprouted one after another.
“Xiaoxiao, you don’t know what kind of miracle you’ve created for the border city and the world.”
Xiaoxiao blushed and pulled her father to the warehouse to pick a melon. She took it back and cut it. It was a good opportunity to moisten Xiao Ran and Rong Yan’s dry throats..
