Chapter 218: Chapter 218: The Reinforcement Arrives

The reinforcement soldiers arrived at the camp and joined the force. Not all the soldiers came over. Some were left to take care of the things behind. Now, they are ready to go forward to the Yue Kingdom.

They are one kilometre away from the border of the Yue Kingdom. Bai Xiang stopped the march. He turned and gave a speech right there.

"We will win this war. Stay with me and we are going to have the glory that we want." Bai Xiang said.

Right after that speech, the soldiers shouted while pointing their weapons to the sky. They are very confident about winning this war. They invaded the border.

...

One of the soldiers rushed to the meeting room to report it to Zhang Tao. Zhang Tao, who was in the meeting, frowned when he saw the insolence of the soldier.

"What is going on? Why are you coming in without permission?" Han Yongrui asked the soldier.

The soldier bowed down and apologized to them. "General Zhang Tao, I am sorry, but it is an urgent matter."

"What is it?" Zhang Tao asked.

"The Liuyin Empire’s soldiers already crossed our border." The soldier stated.

Zhang Tao and Han Yongrui both stood up at the same time. "What?"

"Say that again." Zhang Tao said.

"The Liuyin Empire’s soldiers already crossed and invaded our border. It seems they are heading in our direction. They probably will arrive by tomorrow if they are stopping for the night." The soldier reported.

"Call our high-ranking soldiers. We need to discuss this matter." Zhang Tao shouted.

"Understood." Han Yongrui nodded and rushed out.

Zhang Tao grinned. It was just two days ago that the Liuyin Empire soldiers clashed with Gao Shoushan. How could they already cross the border? Don’t they feel tired?

Well, to answer that question... Bai Xifeng was the main reason. The stew that she cooked yesterday was not just normal food but medicinal cuisine. It could give energy to those who ate it. The fatigue would disappear, and people would have a lot of energy.

"We are going to stay here tonight. Do your duty and stay alert." Bai Xiang announced.

They are in the enemy’s area. They needed to stay on guard. They did not know when or where the enemy was going to attack them.

Bai Xifeng called Gryffindor. She wanted him to act like he cast the array around their camp. She rode on the back of Gryffindor. She asked Gryffindor to bring her to the end of the camp. Gryffindor just followed the order. She made the preparation. Then she asked Gryffindor to fly up

When she was up in the sky, Bai Xifeng began to cast the protection array. Even though they had people to guard the camp, it was best if they had an array to protect them.

The dinner was served. They still could not move on from the stew that Bai Xifeng cooked yesterday. But they did not dare to go and ask Bai Xifeng to cook again. However, Bai Xifeng took out her big pot again. The soldiers who saw this were excited.

"Hmm... Someone needs to cook white rice for everyone. I will cook spicy pan-fried meat." Bai Xifeng said.

"Yes, Sir Long. We are going to cook the white rice." The soldiers saluted and rushed over to cook rice.

Bai Xifeng took out the meat that was left out from yesterday. It was stored inside her Qiankun bag. So, it was not spoiled at all. She did not cook anything as difficult as yesterday’s stew. Today was a bit simple meal. Even though it is a simple dish, it is still medicinal cuisine.

When the dinner was ready, everyone rushed to take their portion. Bai Xifeng laughed to see the obedient soldiers. Bai Tingfeng also watched the scene. He felt ridiculous. However, he also did the same.

Everyone got their own portion. It seemed that Bai Xiang was still not eating. So, Bai Xifeng took some of the food and went to find her father. She is in front of his father’s tent.

"General Bai, I brought your food for today’s dinner." Bai Xifeng said.

"Come in." Only Bai Xiang’s voice could be heard.

Bai Xiang was totally focused on the map. He did not even look up when Bai Xifeng entered the room.

Seeing that no one was inside, Bai Xifeng called her father properly. "Father, it is time to eat."

"Xixi, you are here? Brought the dinner for me?" Bai Xiang was surprised.

"Father, you shouldn’t be so focused on something. You should be more alert." Bai Xifeng advised.

Bai Xiang nodded. "Hmm... I understand. I am sure to do so in future. What’s for tonight’s dinner?" His eyes looked at the tray that had been held by Bai Xifeng.

"Rice and spicy pan-fried meat." Bai Xifeng put the bowl in front of Bai Xiang who already put away the document that he had been focusing on earlier.

"Did you cook this too?" Bai Xiang asked.

"Hmm..." Bai Xifeng nodded.

Bai Xifeng’s answer made Bai Xiang think about something. It seemed her daughter had been bullied at home and that she needed to prepare the food by herself. When he returned home, he would seek justice on his daughter’s behalf.

Bai Xifeng did not know what Bai Xiang was thinking right now. If she knew about that, she would quickly explain the matter.

"Let’s eat, shall we?" Bai Xifeng smiled.

"Hmm..." Bai Xiang replied.

Both started eating.
