After leaving the lobby of the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion.
Li Dao immediately found Liu Xiuer's daughters who had been arranged by Zhang Meng and others.
"Deputy Commander, the Commander-in-Chief is not making things difficult for you, right?"
Liu Xiuer came over immediately and said.
"No."
Hearing this, Liu Xiuer and others breathed a sigh of relief.
But the words that followed immediately made them nervous.
"Although it didn't embarrass me, it did embarrass you."
Seeing Liu Xiuer's sudden change of expression, Li Dao chuckled and said, "But I have confidence in you."
Then, he told about the bet between himself and Yang Lin.
After listening, Liu Xiuer and others were relieved. It would be great if they had the chance.
As for the competition Li Dao mentioned, if they had not experienced transformation, they might still be worried, but now, they are full of confidence.
Liu Xiuer stood up and said seriously, "Don't worry, Deputy Commander, my sisters and I promise not to embarrass you."
All the girls also showed expressions of confidence.
Li Dao looked at this scene and showed a faint smile, "Relax, don't be nervous."
After saying that, he waved to Xue Bing beside him.
"Boss."
"Go find some blacksmiths and help them make some masks. They look like..."
Li Dao stated his request again.
After hearing this, Xue Bing nodded and quickly turned around and left.
Then he looked at Liu Xiuer and others, "You guys will rest here for the next three days to recharge your batteries. In three days, I will take you to participate in the competition."
At this time, Jiu'er suddenly ran out and said hurriedly, "Master, what about me?"
Li Dao rubbed his hair and said, "You can live here with Xiu'er and the others."
"Fine."
Although Jiuer is reluctant to give up, he also knows some rules in the military camp.
Li Dao glanced at Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai who were clinging to each other and said, "Then they will stay with you for the time being. After all, they haven't seen each other for so long."
"good."
...
Time flies so fast, three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Commander-in-Chief's Mansion, inside Li Dao's room.
When the last ginseng was swallowed by him and turned into energy, all the attributes he had consumed before were restored, and his energy and energy reached their peak again.
After thinking about the time, he knew it was time to go find Xiu'er and the others.
When he arrived outside the commander-in-chief's residence, he accidentally met Yang Lin and Shen Chong who were about to go out.
After seeing Li Dao, Yang Lin's eyes lit up and he said cheerfully, "Boy Li, how are you preparing over there? Why don't you say a few nice words now, so that if I am happy, I can ask the people below to help you?" Let your people go free."
Li Dao smiled slightly, "Mr. Yang, are you so confident?"
Yang Lin chuckled, "Do you really think you can win?"
Li Dao raised his eyebrows, "How about we increase the stakes and make a small bet?"
Yang Lin hesitated for a moment and then said, "What tricks do you want to play?"
"Mr. Yang, you should remember that you still owe me 800 full heavy armor. I don't want much this time. If I win, how about you give me another 800 full heavy armor."
Hearing this, Yang Lin glared and said, "You are so greedy. If eight hundred is not enough, you want eight hundred."
Li Dao smiled. He not only wanted eight hundred, but at first he wanted three thousand.
However, he also guessed that Yang Lin couldn't get out the three thousand fully armored men, so he dropped it to eight hundred. Anyway, the three thousand men haven't been gathered yet, so they can come little by little.
Seeing that Yang Lin hesitated for a long time without responding, Li Dao continued, "Mr. Yang, aren't you sure of it?"
"If the bet wins this time, everything you owe me will be paid back."
Hearing this, Yang Lin was moved.
He felt distressed before when he thought about the eight hundred full heavy armor he owed Li Dao, but now it would be offset if he won the bet.
But he didn't know why, he always felt like something was wrong.
After thinking for a long time, he finally found nothing wrong.
At this time, Shen Shen, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said, "Mr. Yang, are you afraid of losing?"
"lose?"
Yang Lin immediately retorted, "How could I lose?"
Maybe the heavy words irritated him, so he immediately said bluntly, "Okay, Mr. Li, we'll make this bet today. There's nothing I can do about you to repay the debt."
"Okay, let's just say that."
After speaking, Li Dao glanced at Yang Lin's heavy look.
Shen Zhen didn't say anything, just gave him a confirming look.
What it probably means is: That’s all I can help you with, and it’s up to you to figure out what to do next.
...
After parting with the confident Yang Lin, Li Dao came to the place where Liu Xiuer and others lived again.
"Master!"
As soon as he entered the door, Jiu'er came over with an enthusiastic face, pulled him and said, "Look at my sister and the others."
Looking in the direction Jiu'er pointed, Li Dao saw a group of women wearing red clothes, light armor and high ponytails.
Because they have been baptized by the precious blood, each of them has a tall and outstanding figure. This may be because only men have always worn military uniforms, while women rarely wear them, so they look particularly different and have a unique flavor.
After Liu Xiuer and others noticed Li Dao, they turned around and clasped their fists together and said, "Deputy Commander."
Li Dao nodded and asked, "Where is Xue Bingren?"
"Boss, I'm here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Bing's voice sounded not far behind him.
Looking back, I saw Xue Bing walking in with several soldiers carrying a box each.
Bang!
The boxes were neatly placed in front of Li Dao.
"Boss, this is what you asked me to build. I worked overtime to get it out."
Xue Bing said with a smile.
And when he turned around and saw Liu Xiuer and others, his expression couldn't help but be startled, and there was only surprise in his eyes.
After coming back to his senses, he couldn't help but mutter, "Who can bear to do this?"
Here, Li Dao opened the box directly.
Under the sunlight, the contents of the box were exposed.
I saw black masks placed one by one inside the box.
The mask is not a full-face mask, but a mask that covers half of the face, with fangs and hideous lines engraved on the surface.
Li Dao picked up a mask and slapped it on his face.
It only feels like the face below the eyes is completely covered, and the sides of the mask extend directly to the ears and eyes.
The reason why it is made in this style instead of being comprehensive is to prevent the loss of vision. Unless it is a veneer mask, a comprehensive iron mask is really not suitable for the battlefield.
Li Dao looked at Liu Xiu'er and the others and said, "Everyone of you, pick it up and try it."
Soon, everyone except Liu Xiuer had a mask in their hands.
Li Dao glanced at the mask in his hand and then remembered that he had made exactly two hundred of them.
"this is for you."
Liu Xiuer glanced at the mask in Li Dao's hand, her face turned red for some reason, and she took it immediately.
Seeing each person holding a mask, Li Dao walked a little further and said, "Put them all on."
Hearing this, everyone put on their masks together.
At the moment Liu Xiuer and others put on their masks, a slight cold wind blew into the courtyard.
"hiss!"
When Xue Bing looked up at Liu Xiuer and others again, his pupils shrank and he couldn't help but take a breath.
This time, it's not a question of whether you can't do it, but a question of whether you dare to do it.
Li Dao nodded with satisfaction after seeing the current appearance of Liu Xiuer and others.
Finally, after making sure everything is okay.
Li Dao ordered, "Take your weapons, mount your horses, and follow me."
"yes!"
...
at the same time.
Outside the northern part of Fufeng Pass.
That was the side where Li Dao led his men to massacre the Northern Barbarian army.
Because it was a competition between cavalry, a wider venue was needed, and this ancient road became the most suitable place.
At this time, all the corpses of the Northern Barbarian armies on the ancient road had been cleared away and turned into fire tools for the armies in Fufeng Pass.
However, although the body was not there, the blood stains that seeped into the soil were still there. The yellow soil under the feet was slightly red, and a fishy smell could still be vaguely smelled.
Not only did these not make people feel uncomfortable, but they actually aroused people's fighting spirit.
On the ancient road.
According to Yang Lin, in order to prevent Liu Xiuer and others from gossiping behind their backs after they won, almost all the soldiers, except for the inherent guards in Fufeng Pass, were pulled outside the pass to watch the battle.
At this time, many soldiers were standing on both sides of the ancient road to watch the excitement.
It extends to several hundred meters outside Fufeng Pass.
On the other side, Yang Lin and Shen Zhong were already standing in the field waiting.
Looking at Yang Yan beside him, Yang Lin said, "Yang Yan, remember, you are not allowed to use true energy."
Hearing this, Yang Yan patted his chest and smiled confidently, "Commander, don't worry. A group of women may not need my help."
Yang Lin's face darkened and he couldn't help but kick him, "I told you, kid, don't be careless. If you lose, watch how I whip you."
"I know."
Although Yang Yan nodded, the contempt in his eyes was still inevitable.
He is not an exception. It is estimated that everyone present in Yang Yan's position will have the same idea. This has been the case since ancient times.
Seeing that there was no movement for a long time, Yang Lin couldn't help but said, "The women under Mr. Li are afraid of losing and dare not come forward."
He glanced heavily in the direction of the city gate and said slowly, "It shouldn't happen."
At this moment, a burst of lively sounds suddenly sounded at the city gate.
Yang Lin and Shen Zhong followed the sound and saw a group of figures walking out of the city gate from a distance.
Heavy, "Here we come."
Yang Lin, "You really dare to come."
Yang Yan, "Humph."
...
Inside the north gate of Fufeng Pass.
Li Dao took the lead and rode at the front.
Liu Xiuer followed closely, followed by the others.
Before they even reached the city gate, Liu Xiuer and others had already seen the densely packed soldiers on both sides outside.
For a moment, the breaths of all of them became confused.
They had never seen such a big scene before, especially when they were the protagonists, the psychological pressure was even greater.
Li Dao was keenly aware of these abnormalities and comforted him, "Relax, don't be nervous. If you can't even withstand this kind of scene, how can you talk about going to the real battlefield."
Hearing this, Liu Xiuer and others trembled.
Yes, how can they go to the battlefield if they are so miserable just by being looked at?
"call!"
Liu Xiuer took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Sisters, now is not the time to show your cowardice, but the time to prove ourselves. Don't lose the face of our benefactor."
"yes!"
The girls spoke in unison, instantly breaking the layer of pressure that enveloped them, and their eyes became as confident as before.
