Chapter Ten Easy Victory

  Most of Xuan Yuan's soldiers were asleep that night, after all, tomorrow was the real battlefield, where people would die. After the initial excitement had passed, they often felt waves of worry...

  At this time, Ye Xuan also did not close his eyes. He was waiting for someone to come back. After a while, some movements came from outside the tent, and Ye Xuan turned around and went out of the tent.

  Before long, Ye Xuan saw Sun Yu walking alone behind a majestic figure with a horse, heading towards their account. Ye Xuan smiled and said: "Second brother, how about the task I asked you to do? Is there any gain?"

  Sun Yuhehe smiled and randomly picked up the person behind him, kicked him to Ye Xuan's face, and said: "Hehe, second brother, I didn't disappoint you. There was no movement on the slope of the mountain. When I went up, this little sentry was still sleeping. I think Bi Diyu should still be in his mother's womb at this time. Big brother, you can interrogate this scum directly." After finishing, he kicked the captive's back again.

  Ye Xuan looked at the person kneeling in front of him, his hands tied together, his mouth stuffed with a cloth that made it impossible to spit out. After being kicked by Sun Yu, he groaned in pain for several times.

  Ye Xuan's heart was filled with great joy, thinking that he could now get to the bottom of things from this person in front of him. He immediately reached out and pulled down the gag from the person's mouth.

  Looking at the soldiers and horses behind Ye Xuan, this man's face showed a terrified expression, constantly knocking his head, begging for mercy: "Good fellow spare my life, good fellow spare my life! I'm just a small pawn, I was also forced to be a thief, please sir spare my life, I swear to serve as your ox and horse, sir spare my life!"

  Ye Xuan's expression turned cold, and he put on a fierce appearance, saying: "Stop chattering, you also have something in your crotch, don't pretend to be a woman. As long as you answer my questions honestly, I can spare your life. If you try to play tricks on me, don't blame me for being ruthless, haha..."

  Listening to Ye Xuan's chilling laughter that seemed to pierce through his bones, the man in front of him was so frightened that he kept trembling with fear, knocking his head on the ground and hastily said: "Yes, yes, I'll definitely tell you everything I know, sir, without holding back even a bit."

  The interrogation went smoothly, and Ye Xuan understood the details of Di Yu. Di Yu claimed to be the Nine-Headed Dragon, but in reality, he was just a mere bandit. He had followed the government troops before, but after getting injured, he stayed here and became a bandit with about 50 men under him. Most of them didn't have any fighting power, and they usually didn't even dare to touch the village. Chen Fei arrived here less than two months ago and suppressed Di Yu. Usually, they just did some kidnapping for ransom business. Most of his subordinates were not well-fed, except for a few close confidants of Di Yu, the rest only had one meal a day.

  This approach has long been resented by the people under him, but they didn't dare to speak out because of Di Yu's tyranny.

  After listening to the person in front of him, Ye Xuan nodded and stroked his chin. At this time, Sun Yu took a step forward and asked: "What should we do with him, kill him or..."

  Having heard Sun Yu's words, the person in front of him hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.

  Ye Xuan shook his head and said, "We should keep our promises. Besides, this guy is also a poor soul. If it weren't for this damned world, he wouldn't have become a thief either. There's no need to make things difficult for him. Take him away first. Alright, summon all the generals immediately. Under the cover of night, when those bastards are still indulging in women, launch a full-scale attack!"

  "Yes!" Sun Yu led the order and went down to arrange the troops, while the captive looked at Ye Xuan with gratitude and followed him down.

  ……

  Ye's army marched in formation and arrived at the first line of defense on the slope of Horisan. It was only then that the people on Horisan realized something was amiss. The people on Horisan hastily pulled out their weapons, some preparing to meet the enemy, others rushing to report. The scene was one of utter chaos...

  Ye Xuan looked at the mob in front of him, sneered and shouted: "All officers and soldiers listen to orders, advance forward, those who disobey will be beheaded!"

  Everyone held their breath and stepped forward, while the bandits on the slope also panicked. No one had ever seen such a neat formation, not even the government soldiers!

  Only a small head above was shouting: "Quickly, quickly release the arrow, shoot them dead."

  Then, a few scattered arrows flew out of the sky. In response to this situation, Ye Xuan coldly laughed and shouted: "Knife shield hand guard, each knife shield hand in every squadron, immediately hold up the large shield and push it to the front. This way, the damage caused by the arrows to the Ye family army is almost negligible. Before long, they arrived in front of the bandits.

  Watching the bandits rush towards them, armed with all sorts of weapons and in disarray, Ye Xuan bellowed: "Knives and shields, open up! Guns, lay flat! Kill for me!"

  The people in the first row heard this order and held their breath, shouting loudly: "Kill..."

  More than a dozen long guns, almost simultaneously thrust forward with all their might, regardless of whether there were people in front or not. And it was during this clash that the bandits discovered in horror that five of their own men were staring incredulously at the holes in their chests, gushing blood, before falling into a pool of blood...

  Then another one, in the blink of an eye, half of the bandits in front of him had fallen to the ground.

  ……

  This scared the bandits in front of them, they were just trying to make a living by stealing, who would want to risk their lives? One person finally couldn't bear it anymore and cried out while running away, the bandits were all frightened by this sharp cry and ran away crying for their parents, even abandoning their weapons.

  ……

  Looking at the fleeing bandits in front of them, who were like dogs that had lost their master, the Ye family soldiers let out a loud cheer of victory. Sun Yu was even more so, taking the lead and leading everyone to chase after them.

  ……

  This battle can be said to be absurd to the extreme, and Ye Xuan was also extremely depressed. Who would have thought that these bandits who were usually cruel and tyrannical, bullying men and women, would be so vulnerable to attack? In an instant, they were defeated, and Ye Xuan shouted "Spare their lives!" and soon took down the entire hillside. When everyone arrived at the interior of the hillside, it was indeed true that most of the bandit leaders were still on top of women's bellies, indulging in those pleasures. At this time, they were all disheveled and unkempt, no wonder there was almost no resistance, and the Ye family army took down the hillside.

  Ye Xuan helplessly shook his head and swept away the gloom in front of him, because he could now take a look at his own spoils of war.
