Chapter 1020: Let's Make Porridge

"Leader Chengqie, this is not a threat, it is just saying that this is the only way to do things now. If you are unwilling and still want to attack Huaxia, there is not a single Soldier here who is willing to follow you to your death."

Chengqie was furious, stood up, drew his Sword, and pointed it at the several Leaders: "You, you dare to disobey my orders? I want you to go attack Huaxia right now, get into the river, charge!"

The two Leaders remained unmoved. Just as Chengqie, in his exasperation, was about to stab Leader Gao with his Sword, his arm was grabbed by someone, and the other Leaders swarmed up, quickly snatched the Sword from Chengqie, and tied Chengqie up with a rope.

Chengqie's eyes were bloodshot: "Fine, fine, you actually treat me like this. You have long been dissatisfied with the Suiren Clan, haven't you? You are looking forward to joining Huaxia, hahahahaha, hahahahaha!"

Seeing Chengqie in this state, Shisi was also a bit uneasy and said to the teammate beside him: "Look at Chengqie like this, doesn't he look a bit like the Tribal Chief? Could it be that he will also suddenly, be unable to catch his breath?"

A Leader nearby who heard this leaned over and said: "Hey, don't be afraid. Chengqie is the Tribal Chief's son after all. The previous Tribal Chief actually had the same temper as Chengqie. Chengqie like this really looks like the previous Tribal Chief. But after the Tribal Chief was in Huaxia once, he changed a lot. I think, with Chengqie like this, maybe after arriving in Huaxia, he will also suddenly change for the better, just like the Tribal Chief?"

"What you said makes a lot of sense."

The Leader pushed Shisi: "Alright, we have already controlled Chengqie here. The rest is up to you. You swim over and go talk to the people of Huaxia."

"Alright, no problem."

Shisi unbuckled the Weapon from his waist and immediately walked toward the riverbank. Shi'er was also very straightforward, unbuckling his own Knife as well, and went over together: "I am better at swimming than you. Although the river water is neither deep nor swift, I am still afraid that you won't make it alone. Let the two of us go over, and I can pull you along."

Shisi was not pretentious: "Fine, then the two of us will go."

Huaxia already had a countermeasure here, so they were eating lunch unhurriedly. The worst-case scenario was just eating their fill before fighting them.

However, just as the Company Commander was about to put down his bowl, he saw two people on the opposite side jump into the river—only two people.

The Company Commander was stunned for a moment, then shoveled the last few grains of rice in the bowl into his mouth: "You, go take a look at what the situation is. Why did only two people come over? For such a short distance, do they still need to send an envoy?"

The Soldier who was pointed at immediately put down his bowl, wiped his mouth casually, and ran to the riverbank. He stared at the two people struggling to swim in the river water, seeing that they were having a bit of a hard time, but were getting closer and closer, so he asked loudly: "What are you two here for?"

Shi'er and Shisi raised their heads with great effort: "We two, we two are from Huaxia, trained, trained. We come to, to negotiate, *cough cough*, stop fighting, stop fighting!"

The Soldier panicked and ran over to tell the Company Commander. The Company Commander was quite calm; to him, even if one or two people drowned, the blame would not fall on him, because this was trouble Chengqie brought upon himself, and if there was blame, it should be directed at Chengqie.

But since they said they had been trained in Huaxia, they probably still recognized Huaxia, and it was highly likely they represented Baoxi. It was best if no one died, so he said: "Alright, find a rope and throw it down to pull them up."

"Got it."

The rope was right by the riverbank. He tied a knot at one end, then swung it: "I'm throwing the rope over, you grab it."

Shisi and Shi'er, who were not good swimmers and had overestimated themselves, had only swum halfway now and felt they couldn't go on. The river, which was not wide and even quite narrow, made the two of them feel a bit strained.

Seeing the rope thrown down, the two of them also hurriedly swam toward the direction of the rope. Shi'er successfully grabbed it and then passed it to Shisi. The two of them were finally able to use all their strength to keep their heads up and breathe deeply.

After getting ashore, the two were already like drowned rats. They walked to the Company Commander in this state and gave a military salute: "Hello, Company Commander!"

The Company Commander looked at the two of them and returned a salute in a lukewarm manner: "You two followed your Tribal Chief and received a few days of training at our place, is that right?"

"Reporting to the Company Commander, yes!"

Shisi and Shi'er tried their best to make their behavior standard and look a bit more like Huaxia, although during training, the Squad Leader had looked down on every aspect of them, saying they didn't look like soldiers and weren't suitable to be soldiers.

"Then tell me, how did you handle it? What is your Leader Chengqie thinking?" The Company Commander picked up his tea, preparing to moisten his throat; the food he ate was a bit too dry.

"We tied Chengqie up. Except for him, everyone is willing to come to Huaxia and does not want to fight Huaxia."

"Pfft!" The Company Commander spat out a mouthful of tea. He hadn't expected such a result.

"What the hell, you tied Chengqie up? You, aren't you afraid of Chengqie, and aren't you afraid of your Tribal Chief?"

Shisi said with a serious face: "The order we received was to send Chengqie and the 27,000 people to Huaxia, and then bring the food and supplies sent by Huaxia back to the Suiren Clan. We did not receive an order to be enemies with Huaxia.

We only follow the orders of our Tribal Chief; Chengqie's words do not count."

"Hahahahaha, good, good, good, you guys really have ability. Fine, I acknowledge it. But the bridge has already been blown up, and everything is too late. If they want to come over, let them figure out a way to cross the river themselves. But once they reach me, they must obey my orders, understand?"

Shisi finally heard good news: "Yes, Company Commander, we understand. We will go over and tell them now."

"Still going over? Such a wide river—it's not even as wide as my leg—can't you just shout across the riverbank?"

Shisi wiped away the water droplets covering his eyes: "Oh, right, we'll go to the riverbank and shout."

"You can use the rope, let them come over as soon as possible. There is still food. If they do these things again in the future, I will not let them off easily. For those who destroy unity and rebel against Huaxia, I have the right to dispose of them."

The Company Commander waved his hand, and the two hurriedly left. The pressure of being next to the Company Commander was still very high. Having solved the troublesome matter, the Company Commander could finally drink his tea properly.

A cup of hot tea went down, and he finally felt much more comfortable. Without original soup to digest the original food, he could only rely on tea.

After he finished a cup of tea, he said unhurriedly: "Tell the kitchen to get ready to start making porridge. 27,000... anyway, try to make as much as possible. They should have brought their own pots, otherwise, with so many people, cooking for a day wouldn't be enough for them to eat one meal."
