Chapter 533: Xiao Hu Volunteers to Guard the Camp!

Damn it, it's exactly the one that won't open!

The Haki Wolf baby's red temperature level instantly spiked to max, infuriating the Heavenly Spirit Cover to the point of nearly exploding.

Its language function is so lacking that it can only be like the out‑of‑fashion dandy villains of old web novels, a pure meaningless repeat machine.

"Very good, you are very good, very good…"

After being aggrieved for a long time, he suddenly recalled that he was born with the ability to love, and let out a fierce roar.

"Then remember this! I am the Wolf King Prince! Close~hand~! I will tear you into pieces!"

Having said that, A Xi Bao shouted angrily, and as he surged forward, an iron mountain knocked the tank General Zheng was riding right over.

Then he darted and weaved, like a mischievous child playing with toys, bare‑handed, and shattered the other three tanks into fragments.

Finally, amid a rain of falling corpses, he seized General Zheng, who had just crawled out from under the tank.

"You!"

Without a word, he ripped him in two, blood and all.

However, the high walls collapsed, buildings toppled, and the municipal hall had become a ruin.

Thus, from A Xi Bao's launch of the attack to the unrivaled chaotic dance, and finally the ruthless conclusion, all of this was displayed directly before everyone around.

From the perspective of ordinary humans, tearing living people apart in public as an invader is absolutely brutal, certainly not a good kind.

But for beastmen, a lone wolf prince storming the enemy camp and killing the enemy boss with a single move is simply a war god!

It is only natural for them to excitedly shout "Victory! Victory!", "Long live the Prince!", "Long live the Royal Court!" and the like.

"Huh!"

A Xi Bao closed his eyes with satisfaction, adopting a patriotic mindset, and tasted the thrill of finally avenging his great hatred amid unprecedented brilliance.

But he discovered that beneath this exhilaration, something rustling and uncomfortable was still hidden…

What could it be?

He furrowed his brows and pondered, realizing it seemed to be…

A sense of unease?

Sss!

Did I forget something?

Or have I been so focused on revenge that I missed something?

However, this sudden inspiration only left a fleeting glimpse before vanishing, leaving A Xi Bao, who remained in place, unable to figure out the answer.

Moreover, the battle was over and the war merit was within reach; at this crucial moment, he still had other matters to attend to and no time for careful thought.

Thus, after confirming he hadn't done anything wrong, A Xi Bao, as the Cave Fox King, issued a ruthless command: "Leave no one in the city alive, kill them all!"

On one hand, certainly to vent his anger, and on the other, to keep the Fox King in Han City so that this scheming boy could carry the captured iron war turtle back alone to headquarters to report the victory.

"Great! Great!"

Meanwhile, on the other side, frontline soldiers returned victorious, celebrating the opening red, and from various commanders to the three great beast kings, the Royal Tent was naturally filled with cheers.

Upon seeing the enemy war vehicle captured by the prince's own hands, they gathered around, clicking their tongues in amazement.

"So humans have such divine weapons, able to turn and run, forged entirely of steel; no wonder they dare challenge us."

"Is this a cannon? I smell a sharp odor, sss… it's still hot to the touch!"

"This thing looks truly dangerous, I told you His Majesty's caution earlier was justified!"

This is also the fundamental reason why A Xi Bao, like a fool, would carry the tank back alone.

—You all saw, the iron war turtle that can mount a cannon and walk around truly exists; the last defeat was certainly not my fault!

But alongside the praise, some smarter commanders considered another issue.

"Eh? This thing seems to be magic‑powered, so if we seize it, can we use it too?"

"Probably not. I just crawled inside and saw a bunch of inexplicable rods and buttons; I really can't make sense of it."

"What a pity, what a pity..."

The crowd chattered for a while, but the important matters prevailed, so under the Wolf King's organization they held a second meeting to discuss the next operational direction of the Royal Court Army.

The final conclusion, for safety, was that the Royal Tent would not move, the camp would stay, and the headquarters at the village at the foot of the mountain would remain unchanged.

But of the 170,000 troops, only 50,000 would stay here on guard, while the remaining 120,000 would be dispatched to Han City to reinforce the 30,000 forward detachment.

Thereafter, the main force of 150,000 would be led by the Fox King as commander, with the Wolf Prince and Ox King as senior generals, forming a new frontline leadership.

Centering on Han City, advancing step by step, they would further seize the Pioneers' camp until the next major event occurs.

But…

【Man Du La Tu】: Penguin surprised. jpg

Alright, no "but" then.

However, by now night had fallen, and if the 120,000 troops lacking unified command forced a night departure, chaos would inevitably arise.

Thus the Wolf King did not order immediate action, but scheduled the main force's relocation to be completed over the entire next morning and day.

As a result, that night, the messenger responsible for maintaining contact between headquarters and Han City was attacked by the Pioneers, leaving several elders' fates uncertain.

"Ah…"

Facing the bloody reality, the last few hot‑headed chieftains in the squad who still harbored some resentment toward the Wolf King could only choose to be obedient.

After all, had they followed the suggestion to transfer yesterday afternoon, the main force would have been caught off guard by the Pioneers' ambush last night.

By then… heh heh heh, the Wolf King would have slaughtered them so lightly that perhaps the whole families would be hung gloriously in the fields as cured meat!

Thus people must learn to be sensible; when the sun rose the next day, they all became obedient subjects who only followed the Wolf King's orders.

And this soaring absolute authority to its peak further amplified the Wolf King's majestic aura.

Standing before more than a hundred thousand soldiers, he, exuding a scholarly aura, confidently issued the order to begin the relocation.

Although along the way they still faced several attacks by human Pioneers, and on a few occasions even the chieftains of small Tribes were slain.

But in the end they acted in daylight, with Lang Wangzi and others patrolling, which at least restored some face for them, and they did not let those damned big monkeys continue to run rampant.

Finally, at dusk, the main forces on the grassland were fully transferred into Han City, and, according to the regional division set by Hu Wang, each settled into place.

The vanguard that day was not idle either; half served as scouts to locate other Pioneers' settlements, while the other half acted as laborers, inventorying the city's supplies.

Who would have thought that this inventory would reveal, wow, it's incredible!

Although the Silla people's grand plan has not yet unfolded, the permanent population of Han City is already close to ten thousand.

People eat horse feed, so the city must build enough granaries as hidden reserves, especially since Han City was previously on the brink of a grassland people's attack.

Therefore, to have confidence for future protracted warfare, President Li ordered the stockpiling of food in the city sufficient for ten thousand people to eat for at least three months.

Unfortunately, who could have imagined the enemy could field two level‑70 units in a single war? As a result, the food proved completely useless.

On the contrary, because the players retreated so quickly, they hadn't transferred much before everything fell into the hands of those grassland people.

And since the provisions feed ten thousand for three months, they would barely last six days for one hundred fifty thousand.

Adding the other food gathered in the city and what the group carried, it would easily meet the main army's needs for nearly two weeks.

Heaven, this is an unexpected burst of joy!

"Wait a moment!"

The shout stopped Niu Wang, who was about to order his subordinates to stew a big mixed pot for himself, as Lang Wangzi entered the granary, his brows knit.

"Uncle Wang, these supplies arrived far too easily; aren't you afraid that those damned humans might have poisoned them?"

"Ah? How could this be…"

The starving Niu Wang was about to retort loudly, but suddenly realized this was a good nephew, so he suppressed his voice.

"Your Highness, it's obvious they themselves will eat what's in the granary; the Pioneers are living people, they can't eat poisoned food, right?"

Ji Ming: Hard to say.

A Xi Bao's expression softened slightly, but he still shook his head.

"Uncle Wang, this is a serious matter; I think we should be cautious…"

"Well… good nephew, but we can't let our caution cause all this food to rot here!"

Although Niu Wang is reckless, he is also a man of loyalty and sense, so he quickly tried to persuade.

"Ah, even if you don't feel sorry for Uncle, you have to consider our logistics; I've seen it, their side is under huge pressure!"

"Look, in this battle we rallied hundreds of thousands… nephew, let me tell you quietly, it's not enough to eat! Really not enough!"

"So, please consider it as being considerate of the family, okay? Please!"

An overly long supply line, insufficient food reserves, and, after countless slaughter, still an excessive number of mouths to feed.

A Xi Bao knew that Niu Wang's words were all genuine, and they are among the biggest pain points for the Wang Court Army right now.

If these problems aren't resolved, this household will fall apart at once! It can't be rescued.

Therefore, not only Niu Wang, but even Hu Wang, as the commander, urged him to loosen up, otherwise the logistical pressure would be too great.

When the arm can't twist the thigh, even if still worried, A Xi Bao could only relent, reluctantly permitting everyone to take nearby food from the granary to satisfy their hunger.

However, before that, he conducted an experiment, letting some war beasts accompanying the army "voluntarily" become taste‑testers of the food.

"Hey, good nephew, three hours have passed, they're all lively and hopping, can we eat them now?"

…

"Alright, maybe I'm being too sensitive; everyone eat, everyone eat…"

Walking out of the granary alone, A Xi Bao felt a pang of self‑pityful embarrassment rise within him.

Wuwuwu, I was clearly doing it for everyone's sake, why does it end up making me seem like the bad guy, qwq!

Then he saw a patrol of werewolf soldiers passing by, each seemingly eating something in their hands.

Sniff sniff…

Hey? It smells a bit good.

He thought for a moment, then decided to walk over.

"Ah? Your Highness Prince!"

These were soldiers of the Wolf King's court, who, upon seeing A Xi Bao, reflexively prepared to kneel and salute.

But today the Prince was in a good mood, and before they could kneel, he told them to stand.

"No need for ceremony!"

The wolf soldiers instantly felt warm inside, but just as they were about to unite in praising their leader, they heard the Wolf Prince ask.

"What are you eating?"

!!!

According to Wang Court Army regulations, patrol is patrol; no other actions are permitted.

So this time the wolf soldiers were truly frightened by A Xi Bao, as if their bones had been pulled, and they scrambled to the ground, clattering.

"Your Majesty, we got carried away; please punish us!"

A Xi Bao:???

Oh right, our Wang Court also has this thing.

He cleared his throat lightly and raised his voice.

"Are rules important? Of course rules are important! This Prince's favorite thing is rules!"

"But! In sieges and raids, everyone contributes, and after victory we can allow moderate relaxation."

"Today I'm in a good mood, so I pardon you this time."

Having said that, he personally reached out and helped each of them to their feet.

Now this is good, the wolf soldiers in a split second completed their own pua on themselves.

Looking at their own 'extremely benevolent' prince, they all had tears welling up, like children seeing their father.

"Your Highness, you are virtuous!"

Such cheesy praise was unprecedented, leaving Axībǎo feeling awkward all over.

He even stammered several times before finally managing to lower his voice and speak.

"I see you… seem to have seized quite a lot, not bad, that's how it should be! The weak are useless, if you like something just take it—that's what we werewolves are!"

"Yes!"

But the foolish wolf soldiers were still shouting in unison, while the smart dog had already opened the bag and presented its treasure.

"Your Highness, to be frank, our whole family—including my eighty-year-old grandmother—greatly supports you!"

Saying that, the young werewolf lifted the food in their hand.

"This is something I snatched from the enemy, just so I could one day offer it to you, my honorable Highness! Please do me the honor!"

Ah this.

Axībǎo is usually rather aloof; even his own personal guards don't get too close, and he adheres to the principle of combining kindness and authority.

And those few consorts were merely partners the father king forced upon him for the sake of stabilizing the grasslands.

Furthermore, since their role is 'consort,' their interests can no longer be 'consort,' making interactions stiff.

As for the father king himself… well, let's skip this topic.

So, having lived this long, Axībǎo has never before been so earnestly offered food.

Therefore, even though his body had habitually tried to resist, he still ended up accepting that box.

"What is this?"
