Eighteen years of history derailed

  [======????=====] What? Hurry up, where are the masses going to be?" Li Mu turned around and walked away, ordering: "Quickly assemble the army and hurry back to the main camp!"

  "Yes!"

  "General, what shall we do with him?" The soldier asked, pointing at Jing Ke on the ground.

  "Behead him, behead him on the spot!" He mounted his horse and looked at the chaotic scene before him. Li Mu ordered: "Behead Jing Ke on the spot, bury the rest of the corpses in a deep pit! Drive...". The carriage drove away with a whip crack.

  ……

  Wait until the horses and men have gone far away. Li Xiaoguo walked forward. "You all go, I'll stay with General Gongsun and General Gu to handle it."

  The five soldiers left behind to bury the bodies and execute Jing Ke looked at each other in dismay: "General, is this really the Great General's order? We..."

  "Haven't you heard? Hurry up and leave!" Gong Sun Jie, who had always been hot-tempered, scolded: "What are you still standing here for? Are you..."

  But was stopped by someone. "Come, come, come, no one knows about this, you guys... your brothers aren't easy to deal with either, take it and find some fun!" It was Gu Shi Kai, who walked into the midst of the soldiers with a smile, giving each person some money, saying: "Remember to return to the big camp late, after returning say that those who should be killed have been killed, and those who should be buried have been buried, got it?"

  "This..." You looked at me, I looked at you, and finally the leading soldier smiled and said: "Since it's an order from General Shao and General Gu, we naturally have to follow." He turned around and shouted: "Brothers, aren't you going to thank General Shao and General Gu for their reward?"

  ……

  "Xiao Guo, quickly verify it for us, is our guess true or not!" Gong Sun saw the soldiers walking away and hastily asked: "Have they really started fighting? Or... is there something wrong?"

  What? Xiao Guo? Are you kidding me? You actually dare to directly address your general by name?

  "Yes, captain!" But Li Xiaoguo's response was even more absurd. Captain? This... isn't this too chaotic? Is this a joke? But Li Xiaoguo didn't seem to be joking: "The detector in my body shows that these three corpses were all genetically modified people. In their original timeline, they should have been dead for over a hundred years."

  "So, did we arrive too late?" Gu Shi Kai's face was filled with shock, suspicion, regret and disappointment: "If I hadn't exposed everyone's whereabouts, if the devils hadn't chased us, those brothers wouldn't have died, and our actions wouldn't have been leaked..."

  "General Gu, it has nothing to do with you, don't blame yourself." Li Xiaoguo sighed and said: "In fact, the data universe power had already existed in this time-space world several years ago..."

  "A few years ago? That's impossible, we came to stop the ghosts' plan when it was 235 BC, if they were chasing us, they would have to be in the same historical era as us. How could they run into an even earlier history?" Gong Sun Jie felt like he had heard a fairy tale and said disbelievingly: "And Xiao Guo, how did you know... no, why do you have such thoughts? This is absolutely impossible!"

  "It's true, that was in 234 BC, although I didn't experience it myself, but... the scene is clearly etched in my memory." He hesitated, then mustered up the courage to say: "Everything I know about Li Xiaoguo now isn't from 'Historical Military Encyclopedia', I am her..."

  "What? Only oneself and one's own race, even direct ancestors would have such a situation. So, does that mean she and you are of the same bloodline? Did you get her genes?"

  "Yes, I'm certain that her existence is in my genes... and her memories have fragments of data about the universe's energy." Li Xiaoguo nodded affirmatively: "I don't know why such a coincidence occurred. But if it's like this... history may appear with many different versions..."

  "What does it mean?" Gong Sun Jie and Gu Shi Kai anxiously asked in unison: "Different versions of history? What is that thing?"

  "Ah, history has already begun to change!" A long sigh, Li Xiaoguo said slowly: "Do you remember? The 2075 World War ended with our country's defeat..."

  "Of course, but that's because the Japanese devils stole the victory that originally belonged to us!" Gong Sun continued: "The Japanese military's agent in our country, Dr. Yamamoto, successfully manufactured the 'Time Gate' at the end of 208 and sent the then 'Chinese Two Gods General' back to the historical period when Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin."

  "Then 'One of the Two Gods of China' Lei Hu was replaced by Jing Ke." Gu Shi Kai said, "In order not to change the fact that the assassination of the Qin King failed in history, and also to complete his mission, he had a child with a woman before the assassination, establishing a connection with the bloodline of Jing Ke's clan. This was originally unrecorded in history, and whether he had any descendants was also a mystery."

  "But all of this changed the course of history, because even if it wasn't recorded, the true history is that Jing Ke had no descendants." Li Xiaoguo said: "And this tiny change directly affected us, just when we were about to win in 20 years, we suffered a historical punishment - mountains and rivers shifted, peaks became valleys, plains became oceans... People who hid during the war, in the butterfly effect of history, either disappeared out of thin air or underwent mutations; while Japan, far away from the mainland, did not suffer too much damage... We lost the war like this."

  "These are all things we learned in our textbooks when we were kids! What's wrong?" Gu Shi Kai and Gong Sun Jie still didn't understand, asking "Is there something wrong with that?"

  "No! No! No……" Li Xiaoguo shook his head continuously: "In the colonies, Japan implemented slave education on us. They also promoted their high-tech to strike our budding resistance psychology! However, in any historical books and materials we've seen and collected, weren't there only two time-travelers in this era? That is, Lei Hu and Zhao Wentian. And if they had more back then, why didn't they show off?"

  She couldn't help but cover her face with both hands, but through the girl's fingers, crystal tears began to fall: "But now... history has changed, aren't we all time-travelers? And the residual data energy of the deceased Three Heroes of Shibuya proves that more people have already crossed over... Most importantly, my memories have their appearance..."

  "What? Li Xiaoguo has seen these three people who should have died a long time ago?"

  "Yes, listen to me..."

  ……

  In the spring of 244 BC, after all preparations such as soldier training and formation coordination were ready, Li Xiao Guo let the people go to the mountains and fields to graze livestock, luring the Xiongnu to invade.

  "It's been two days and two nights, Father hasn't rested at all. If this continues, his body will collapse before the war even starts." Li Xiaoguo adjusted the dim lamp, put a coat on his father, and said softly: "In my opinion, the current number of cattle and sheep is already enough to attract the attention of the Xiongnu people. It's just that they are still observing, possibly thinking we're too 'bold' and afraid of being deceived!"

  "So, in your opinion, how should we make them not hesitate to attack?" Li Mu shifted his gaze from the sheepskin map and felt that his daughter's words made sense. After all, for so many years, they had been cautious and careful, now suddenly being so "brazen" and offering "fatty meat", the Xiongnu would be suspicious.

  "Father, our people are herding cattle and sheep because there is not enough fodder for the livestock. However, if they were to herd in the mountains and wilds, they would certainly request that the army dispatch soldiers to protect them..." Li Xiaoguo reminded: "But currently we have only sent out scouts disguised as civilians mixed among them, without even a small contingent of soldiers nearby, so perhaps..."

  "They thought we had ambushed a large army nearby..." Li Mu suddenly realized: "That's why they didn't dare to launch a surprise attack!"

  "Yes, Father!" Xiao Guo smiled lightly and gently patted Li Mu's shoulder: "Father, every time a mouse wants to get the food it wants, it has to go through a struggle with the old cat. But if one time the old cat lets it get the food easily, it will be afraid and even dare not eat, hehe!"

  "Alright, I'll arrange it for your father tomorrow..." Li Mu turned around and gently patted his daughter's small hand, smiling: "You're really a clever child..." But at this moment, he immediately stood up and asked sternly: "Who is it?"

  "Haha, indeed it's a scheme, indeed it's a good scheme!" Unbeknownst to them, in the three corners beside them, three old men were standing with their hands behind their backs.

  "What kind of people are you?" Inside was shocked, and hastily turned around to take the sword on the wall.

  "Are you looking for it?" But all he saw was an old man gesturing with his hand, and the sword on the wall had already appeared in his hand.

  "Father, be careful!" Little Guo immediately drew her own sword. But as soon as the words fell, a shadow had already flashed behind her in an instant: "Little girl has a big temper, no good, no good, this is not good!" A blood-red short sword or dagger was already pressed against her neck.

  "Don't hurt my daughter!" Li Mu shouted, demanding: "What do you want?"

  "We just want you to make a win-win deal with us..."
