~7 min read 1,204 words

Chen Wu Yin knew the two words "Wild Assault," but he just couldn't grasp how Chen Wuji meant to carry it out.

He looked at Chen Wuji with a blank face and asked, "How do we do it?"

"How have the Qiang People always done it?" Chen Wuji asked.

Qin Zhanhong

"It's pretty much the same idea, but I prefer to call it Wild Assault." Chen Wuji laughed.

Shen Youwei

Chen Wuji picked up a pair of chopsticks with cold-mixed wild vegetables, then continued, "This time you go, you're not seeking battle merits, not seeking spoils—just two words: drill troops, cause chaos."

"If nothing unexpected happens, that piece of fat meat in Guangyuan Prefecture has surely already reached Gu Wenjie's mouth; that bastard made me suffer in Hezhou, and he'd better not think he can sit comfortably in Guangyuan Prefecture."

"Given Gu Wenjie's usual bastardly nature, looting places is probably inevitable; when they loot, you use the Cavalry's advantage to loot their small detachments. Fight a round, then shift locations—don't let the enemy catch onto your pattern and block you."

Chen Wu Yin listened, his eyes gradually lighting up, "Family Head, I like this tactic. I just have a small question: what do we do with the loot we seize?"

"Take what you can carry; distribute what you can't to the civilians. Remember to tell them you are Hezhou's Bīngmǎ, my troops." Chen Wuji reminded.

Deputy Commander Chen

"Furthermore, the most important thing: don't be greedy, don't cling to battle. Remember, after each fight you must shift locations—at the very least, run from the north to the south of a county's territory; the spatial span must not be small." Chen Wuji solemnly ordered.

Prefect

Prefect of Hezhou

Government Office

Yunan County Office

Chen Wu Yin thrust his chest out fiercely, "Family Head, rest assured, I'll keep it firmly in mind."

"You'd better remember this—if anything goes wrong, I'll definitely beat you to death!" Chen Wuji said.

Guangyuan Prefecture

"Hmm, after you finish eating, arrange things yourself; I won't make further plans." Chen Wuji lifted his tea cup and tapped it against Chen Wu Yin's, "You had best become Gu Wenjie's nightmare on this trip."

This time Chen Wuji was truly disgusted by that bastard Gu Wenjie; if he didn't go vent his anger on him, the pent-up feeling in his chest wouldn't subside.

"Family Head, rest assured, I'll make him fear even thinking of me in the future!" Chen Wu Yin said fiercely.

Grass Valley Attack

Yes!

…

It was late at night.

After finishing a day's various official duties, Chen Wuji finally moved into this unfamiliar home in Hezhou.

Just like the Yunan County Office, it was a courtyard located behind the government office.

This place used to be the residence of the Prefect of Hezhou.

The courtyard was a two‑part layout, far more luxurious than the small single courtyard of the Yunan County Office.

Chen Wuji entered the courtyard and didn't see the host Qin Zhanhong, but he saw two graceful, outstanding women standing in the courtyard, holding lamps and chatting.

Chen Wuji glanced at them, then silently withdrew.

"Did I take a wrong turn?" he asked softly, turning his head to Chen Wuyi behind him.

Chen Wuyi shook his head. "Deputy Commander, this is the courtyard; you didn't take a wrong turn."

"What's going on with those two women inside? Weren't you supposed to have searched the entire government office top to bottom during the day? How did you miss them?" Chen Wuji asked.

"No."

"How strange—I didn't take a wrong turn, yet out of nowhere two gorgeous women appeared; could this be another of Qin Zhanhong's tricks?" Chen Wuji muttered, then lifted his leg and went back inside.

Better to ask.

At that moment, the two women who were chatting in the courtyard also noticed Chen Wuji and rose to salute.

"Greetings, Deputy Commander Chen!"

Their manners were proper and gentle, surpassing even the refined bearing of Shen Youwei and Qin Zhanhong, who came from respectable aristocratic families.

That kind of demeanor clearly came from years of cultivation; it couldn't be learned with a few casual lessons.

Chen Wuji stared, his eyes going blank, and said, "Who are you two?"

He truly hadn't expected these two to have popped out of nowhere.

"Reporting to the Deputy Commander, I am Yan Qiushui, invited by Miss Qin to attend to your daily needs."

"I am Shen Lu."

Chen Wuji's vision went dark.

Sure enough, it was another little trick cooked up by Qin Zhanhong.

What on earth was she thinking, having these two serve him?

Do they even look like people who would serve others?

"Where is Qin Zhanhong?" Chen Wuji asked.

"Miss Qin stepped out just now on some business; she should be back soon." Shen Lu said.

Chen Wuji waved his hand and said, "It's getting late; I'll send someone to escort you two back. The city hasn't been peaceful these days, and I don't need attendants here."

He didn't know what trick Qin Zhanhong was up to again.

But this time, no matter what he said, he wouldn't fall for it; if he accidentally ended up in bed again, his waist might really be ruined.

"But we've already taken the money, Deputy Commander—are you trying to make us break our word?" Yan Qiushui curled the corner of her mouth with a gentle, spring‑breeze‑like smile; her whole bearing was poised and generous, giving the impression that she was easy to approach yet somehow kept people at a distance.

She must be a young married woman; her whole person exudes a soft, pure beauty, more alluring than a maiden's.

Chen Wuji said indifferently, "It's fine; I'm the one who let it go, it has nothing to do with you."

Shen Lu immediately smiled and said, "Why don't you wait a bit, Deputy Commander, until Miss Qin arrives to discuss this? We are employed by Miss Qin, so even if we leave, we ought to explain things clearly to her first."

She also looks like a young married woman, and she's the kind that is very soul‑stirring; at first glance she looks very delicious.

Even setting aside her face and figure, just that aura like gentle moonlight and those extremely lustrous eyes that seem to speak are enough for ordinary people to be unable to withstand.

Moreover, not to mention, these two are top‑notch in both figure and appearance.

"Alright then, wait a moment." Chen Wuji agreed.

Shen Lu immediately got into role, came over slowly, and asked gently: "Commandant, you just finished your duties; I'll go prepare hot water for you to take a nice bath. Also, would you like some refreshments?"

"No need, just continue what you were doing; you don't look like people good at serving, so don't trouble yourselves." Chen Wuji said.

Yan Qiushui smiled lightly and said: "Commandant, saying that, you're looking down on us a bit; we two are actually quite good at serving people. Moreover, it's not just about bringing tea and water for the Commandant; we can also play a board game, pluck the strings, dance a tune."

"I'm really curious how Qin Zhanhong managed to persuade you to come over?" Chen Wuji asked.
