I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse Chapter 1796 - 1797: Recruiting Little Brothers

"Hmph!"

You let out a cold laugh. At the critical mont, you just took two steps back, easily dodging the attack. Then you suddenly kicked towards the short man, your foot heavily hitting his lower abdon. He was like a ball, with a "bang!" he was hurled into the ruins on the side, causing dust to rise everywhere.

"Wen Qian!"

Despite their apparent hostility, the two were, after all, brothers who had lived and died together. Upon seeing his companion kicked flying by you, the tall man cried out, his big blade slashing down from above your head!

"Get lost!"

You swept the large tree in your hand horizontally, a fierce wind whistling past. The tall man’s body was also struck by the tree trunk, directly flying out of the village ruins and landing in the distant bushes.

"Attack!"

Seeing their leader defeated, not only did the two hundred n not retreat, but everyone revealed a determined look, swarming towards you!

You did not go for the kill, so you threw away the tree trunk in your hand and rushed into the fray waving your hands. When it cos to fighting a group, after more than a month of training, you are now quite adept. Although these people were regular troops, with orderly steps and fierce attacks, compared to Lü Bu’s army, they were still slightly inferior. You felt like you were in uninhabited territory, anyone you grabbed was directly thrown aside. Under you, these people were like rag dolls, easily manipulated.

Of course, getting injured in a lee was inevitable; your back was stealthily slashed over a dozen tis by so soldiers, but the blades could not pierce your flesh, only leaving so knife marks on your back, at most just superficial wounds, unable to hinder your prestige.

"Stop!"

As you were fighting enthusiastically, you heard the tall man’s voice coming in from outside, followed by the short man struggling to stand up from the ruins, hurriedly calling his n to retreat.

"This brave warrior, we ant no offense. If this is your territory, please forgive our intrusion." The short man was the first to clasp his hands and bow to you.

You waved your hand, smiling, "It’s fine, it’s fine. Surely, you can tell that I hadn’t used my full strength, just having a little fun with you."

The two leading n exchanged a glance, then let out a long sigh.

"I am Yangping Lejin, may I ask the great na of this warrior?" The short man looked at you, introducing himself.

Hearing this na, your eyebrows first twitched, then you clasped your hands and smiled, "I am Li Muyun, just an unknown pawn."

"With your divine power, sir, I’m sure you will be famous throughout the Nine Provinces in the future!" The tall man also walked in from outside, looking a bit disheveled, but his injuries were light, "I am Yu Jin of Juping!"

These two introduced themselves one after the other, making your heart skip a beat, "Damn it, two of the Five Generals showed up, what kind of luck is this."

For you, what you’re most lacking right now is capable people and a group of loyal and reliable followers. After the earlier battle, you could tell that Yu Jin and Yue Jin, the two brothers, were very capable of leading troops, and their n were all fearless of death.

No matter what, you have to keep these people!

You clasp your hands to the two of them and ask, "Gentlen, what caused the disagreent that made brothers brandish weapons against each other?"

"This..." Yu Jin appeared more stable, hesitating for a mont.

But Yue Jin was different. Though he was relatively short, only about 1.7 ters, he spoke and acted crisply and neatly, and was very straightforward. He gave Yu Jin a dissatisfied look, and then said to you, "To be honest Brother Li, we brothers had a conflict. Moreover, it concerns the lives of these two hundred brothers behind us!"

"Oh? For what reason?" You asked urgently.

Yue Jin had no intention of hiding anything, "Hmph! It’s infuriating to say! Wen Ze and I admired Cao Cao of Qingzhou, setting off to join him. But little did we know, our sincere intentions were t with their treacherousness! Our two hundred or so brothers ended up dying for a hedonistic playboy! A man should die for ritorious deeds on the battlefield, but we’re subjected to such a dreadful sha, how can I, Yue Jin, submit to that?!"

Yue Jin almost shouted the last part.

"Wen Qian, Duke Cao might not have known, it’s just that Xiahou..."

"Wen Ze! You’re too pedantic!" Yue Jin shouted at Yu Jin, "That Cao Ah-Man and the Xiahou Family are two peas in a pod! Back then, they sent that bastard Xiahou Qing with us to earn military rit for that brat, we were just stepping stones! All year in Yan Province, we have been devoted, doing all kinds of atrocious deeds only to gild that womanizing scoundrel! I’ve had enough!"

Yu Jin initially wanted to refute Yue Jin’s words, but seeing their group of brothers, he lowered his head instead. Indeed, he couldn’t risk his brothers’ lives.

"From Wen Qian’s words, I’ve gathered so clues." Your words drew everyone’s attention, "Actually, Wen Qian is right. From the beginning, they were positioned as bodyguards. A so-called bodyguard surrounds the rich scion, protecting them with their lives as they indulge in luxury daily."

"That’s right, Brother Li is absolutely right!" Yue Jin agreed with you wholeheartedly.

"Looking at your current state, it seems that the scion from the Xiahou Family is already dead?" you asked.

"He deserves to die!" Speaking about this person, Yue Jin was extrely angry, "Brothers, you should know, this scoundrel deserved a thousand deaths! From the start, he has violated nurous innocent girls! He didn’t even spare seven or eight-year-old children! If it weren’t for Wen Ze’s intervention, I would’ve cut him to pieces!"

From this, it’s not hard to see that Yue Jin is strong-willed, while Yu Jin is more gentle and better at weighing pros and cons. From a broader perspective, these two just happened to complent one another.

"Sigh, the man is dead, let’s not speak of it anymore." Yu Jin sighed.

Looking at Yu Jin, you said, "Wen Ze, if you don’t mind, I hope you can tell the whole story."

Yu Jin sighed, "Xiahou Qing was a relative of Xiahou Dun, and accompanied us to Yan Province on a secret mission."

"Pah! Secret mission! What a load of rubbish! It was nothing but robbing gold and silver, harming the people! The Cao family is rotten to the core; sending people to Yan Province to loot, while secretly building a private army called a ridiculous ’Commander-in-chief Mole Gold’, specializing in grave robbing! They’re called elites, more like pieces of garbage!"

Yue Jin’s scolding made you thoroughly delighted; seeing it this way, trying to win them over isn’t impossible.

Yu Jin glanced at Yue Jin without refuting. It seed he was very disappointed with Cao Cao as well: "That day, Xiahou Qing abducted a woman from the caravan. While committing that vile act, the woman bit off his genitals and stabbed him over a dozen tis. Afterwards, the woman committed suicide to preserve her chastity. Once Xiahou Qing died, his confidants pinned all the bla on us brothers. Xiahou Dun even personally brought people to take our heads, threatening to make us accompany Xiahou Qing in the afterlife. We fought and managed to escape, hiding for more than six days before today. Today, I planned to take my brothers to reason with Duke Cao, but Wen Qian disagreed, leading to our conflict earlier."

You looked at everyone, thought for a while, and said, "I have a suggestion, perhaps you might consider hearing out."
