The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1718

Chapter 1718: 841 Reinforcements Are Here! (Second Update)

That statement wasn’t the most lethal.

Gu Jiao spread her hands and said, "Actually, it doesn’t matter if you don’t tie them. Blackwind King will watch your horse and won’t let it run around."

Our own horse needs to be tied to prevent getting lost, while their horse can not only discipline itself but also others... uh no, other horses.

Chang Wei felt a shock to his soul; he didn’t want to talk to this kid anymore!

Chang Wei walked forward with a dark face.

Gu Jiao strode along, head held high.

Mu Qingchen, alert to the surroundings, also stepped forward.

Chang Wei snorted coldly, "Kid, aren’t you afraid I’ll trick you?"

Gu Jiao replied nonchalantly, "If I don’t make it back, the tens of thousands of captives in Quyang City will have to be buried with me. You calculate this account yourself."

Chang Wei gritted his teeth, "At such a young age, how can you be so ruthless!"

Gu Jiao smiled lightly, "Thanks for the compliment."

Chang Wei nearly choked.

Military generals often have hot tempers; this double-edged sword can enhance their fighting power and morale on the battlefield, but it makes them somewhat irritable off the field.

Chang Wei was heavily injured and considering his life, decided not to speak with him anymore.

The group bypassed a hill and arrived at a narrow stream; ahead lay the valley where the two countries met, the Liang Country’s army was camped here.

They had clearly just arrived not long ago and were still organizing through the night.

"Wait until they’ve fallen asleep to go over," Chang Wei said.

"Mm," Gu Jiao responded.

Only then did Chang Wei realize he had just used the tone of a commander again, yet this brutal young man didn’t seem to mind being ordered by a captive and didn’t get angry or refute.

The group lay in the grass behind the rocks.

By the lunar calendar, September had ushered autumn’s chill; the night wind at the border pass was piercingly cold, making hands and feet icy, and the ground cold.

Mu Qingchen subconsciously touched the back of Gu Jiao’s hand and whispered, "Why is it so cold?"

"Is it cold?" Gu Jiao did not feel it.

Mu Qingchen wanted to take off his outer robe for her, but was wearing night clothes.

"They’re asleep!" Gu Jiao suddenly said.

Mu Qingchen looked in the direction of the sound and saw the last busy squad of Liang Country soldiers enter their tents, leaving a hundred people scattered at different places in overlapping patrols.

They observed for a while, roughly understanding their patrol routes, caught a staggered point, and the group sneaked into the barracks of the Liang Country army.

Their military equipment was at the logistics camp at the back of the camp, along with the grain supplies.

Dark winds and moonless nights, really a good time to burn grain supplies, but unfortunately cannot burn.

Gu Jiao made a gesture to the ten people, Mu Qingchen and the others understood and took out a pair of silver silk gloves from their bosoms.

Seeing this group confiscate all their gloves, Chang Wei’s mouth twitched sharply.

Gu Jiao took out five special material brocade bags, each containing a long snow domain silkworm thread.

After distributing the brocade bags, the group started to act.

The scouts and Chang Wei took responsibility for alerting the patrol army’s movements.

For those with snow domain silkworm threads, cutting battle chariots and cloud ladders wasn’t difficult, but cutting them without letting leftover parts fall to the ground with sound was the key.

This was Wei Renchong’s expertise.

He pointed to a few spots, "Cut like this, to here, and the battle chariots won’t fall apart on the spot."

Gu Jiao and Mu Qingchen each held one end of the snow domain silkworm thread, Mu Qingchen used light movement skills to the other side of the battle chariot, the two exchanged a glance, and sliced the snow domain silkworm thread down.

Quiet as a whisper, like slicing through a cake body, silky smooth beyond measure.

Gu Jiao: "Wow."

Obsessive-compulsive disorder cured, okay!

Gu Jiao was having a lot of fun... uh no, the task was going very smoothly.

"Someone’s coming! Quick, retreat!" Chang Wei whispered.

Gu Jiao smacked her lips regretfully, "Seems like we didn’t cut too few."

The group was dumbfounded.

So many battle chariots and cloud ladders, we only cut one, and some people didn’t even have the chance to cut any. You went and cut them all, okay!

"Let’s go." Mu Qingchen leapt over with light skills and returned the snow domain silkworm thread for her to keep.
