Li Xin was unaware that Luzi was contemplating the issue of exploration, as he was focused on the hot water in his bowl. After testing the temperature, he took a small sip and felt his nearly frozen stomach begin to work again. Stretching his arms, he suddenly noticed that Luzi was still fully armed.
"General! Where are you planning to go?"
His question interrupted someone’s thoughts about exploring lost civilizations. Luzi merely responded with a grunt and did not remove his crossbow. He casually took off his sword and sat down on the ground. The brothers had been exhausted from going back and forth through the wind and snow, and it was time to rest. There was still one area left without reconnaissance results, so someone needed to check it out for peace of mind. They would wait until they were well-fed before leading the reconnaissance team out.
"We still have two areas left to explore, and General Wang has already set out with his team. I need to head to another location to find the Zhao Army's catapult positions."
Upon hearing this, Li Xin quickly waved his hand. "No need to look for it!" He then pulled out a map from his pocket and unfolded it. Pointing to a spot above, he added, "This position is the Zhao Army's catapult site; their responsibility is to use long-range projectile weapons to support the defenses near the river crossing."
As expected!
Luzi looked down at the markings on the map and immediately realized that the location Li Xin pointed out was where he was about to head. Clenching his fist and swinging it excitedly, he exclaimed, "That's great! What a stroke of luck!"
"Is it really that easy?" Li Xin said as he stood up and pulled a flatbread from his pouch, handing it over. "You guys didn’t have to put in any effort; I’m the one who’s exhausted with sore muscles and cramps!"
Luzi was indeed starving and took the flatbread without hesitation, finishing it in just a few bites. "Is there any more?"
Li Xin took off his helmet and scratched his head, looking around to confirm where the flatbread had gone. "This... this is too quick! You finished it in the blink of an eye!?"
Luzi didn’t respond but got up to rummage through Li Xin's pouch, finding nothing else edible. He had no choice but to give up on that idea and sat back down. "You know our current situation; ever since we lost our supplies at Dan Shui River, we’ve only had one meal, and that was barely enough."
The food pack carried by Chang Yu had been hit by a Zhao Army rocket, which Li Xin was aware of while he was in the water. When the team found a small cabin in the woods as a temporary resting place, those who went out searching for targets also had the responsibility of looking for food. It seemed that Luzi and the others had not found anything edible yet.
Outside After all, it is the cold winter, and even animals rarely venture out to forage. Moreover, with the villages around the battlefield abandoned by humans, it is not surprising to find no food!
Li Xin suppressed a laugh as he looked at Luzi sitting across from him. "General! Where can we find food these days!? Of course, we should go to the Zhao Army camp! If you search in the village, you probably won't find a single grain until next year."
Luzi had spent a few days in Lightwolf Fortress, which was then the location of the Zhao Army's Granary, filled with supplies for the Zhao Army. Hearing Li Xin mention going to the Zhao Army camp for food, he suddenly understood why the grain bags on horseback looked so familiar.
"You really are something! You dare to go directly to the Zhao Army camp to steal food!"
Li Xin initially intended to boast a bit but thought better of it. In this cold winter, it felt like his brain was freezing! So he simply revealed, "The food wasn't stolen; it was given to us!"
Lu Zi Li Xin did not seem to be joking. He suddenly remembered something this big mouth had said about an incident involving Lightwolf Fortress. At that time, he was in a hurry to find Feng Zhiyuan and did not join in on the excitement.
It was said that everything that happened was due to Li Mu. This kid, in a moment of impulse, actually killed a Zhao General! This was a huge incident that could have led to accountability and execution for the generals and soldiers present.
To carry out a plan of deception, Li Xin had no choice but to step forward and mitigate the situation. With a few punches and kicks, he turned what seemed like a major issue into a minor one. To thank Li Xin, this great hero for saving them, several Zhao Generals willingly became sworn brothers with Qin General. They agreed to reunite on the day of victory for the Qin State.
How one interprets this story is crucial, especially when it comes from Li Xin Li Dazui. Even if you take it with a grain of salt, you would feel more secure if you discounted it by half. The saying goes that it's better to believe in ghosts than in Li Xin's loose tongue! However, the facts and outcomes were still within reason since the situation was ultimately controlled without adverse effects.
Lu Zi, still spitting words wildly, had no choice but to interrupt: "Did you run into Centurion Huang Fei!?"
Now it was Li Xin's turn to be shocked; he quickly stopped his chatter and leaned in to ask, "How does the general know?"
The fact that the Zhao Army could send you food naturally meant they had to be familiar with you! If they didn't know each other, who would give you supplies for no reason!? And as for who in the current Zhao team dared to distribute food freely, it could only be Huang Fei, who was responsible for transporting supplies. Besides, Li Mu was just a lowly Sergeant, so he certainly didn't have that authority. As for another Centurion, Sima Shang, he was even less likely since he always had Li Mu around him giving him bad ideas; he wouldn't fall for Li Xin's tricks!
Luzi did not intend to reveal the matter but instead asked, "What's so strange about this? Is there something I don't know?"
It must be Sun Thirteen blabbering everywhere! Didn't we agree to keep this a secret? That guy! I will definitely scold him when we meet! After finding a scapegoat for himself, Li Xin quickly gave a thumbs up and praised, "The general is indeed remarkable! It was indeed the food that Huang Fei sent us. I tricked him into thinking it was supplies we had retreated with from Lightwolf Fortress. Not only did he secretly provide us with these supplies, but he also took me to visit the Thunderbolt Car unit of the Zhao Army."
The so-called Thunderbolt Car refers to long-range Catapult!
Upon hearing this, Luzi felt a sense of relief. If this was the result of reconnaissance, then there would be no need to send someone to confirm the details again. But if it was the general of Zhao who personally led Li Xin for the visit, then the target could already be confirmed!
It seems the situation is settled! The only thing left is to prepare for action! Luzi took a deep breath and called in a brother. "Immediately notify the brothers on reconnaissance outside to return to this village and stand by."
"Understood!" The Soldiers responsible for delivering orders saluted the general and quickly called out to a few brothers who had returned from the eastern wing with Li Xin.
Luzi lowered his head and continued to examine the Military Map brought back by Li Xin, praising, "This time, General Li, you have truly accomplished a great feat! I will commend you! Once we return to the main camp, I will report your merits directly!"
