Chapter 56 Looting

Duan Shubai smiled and leaned forward. Xiao Yuhe, who had been pretending to be stern, could no longer keep it up. He smiled and slapped him away, "Don't call me by this name anymore."

"Okay, okay, I won't." Duan Shubai smiled and thought to himself: I'll only call you by this name in my heart from now on.

Xiao Yuhe saw through him at a glance and added again: "You are not allowed to call me that in your heart!"

Duan Shubai put away his smile, stared into his eyes, and said gently: "You have always been a good husband in my heart."

Xiao Yuhe met his eyes and was stunned. The other party's doting smile went straight into his heart. He felt a little hot on his body. He turned his face away uncomfortably and looked at other places. His tone was weaker than before: "This is more or less."

Pingkou Mountain occupies a natural barrier. A camp was built on the hillside according to the mountain terrain. It was called "White Tiger Camp". It was heavily guarded. This was the base camp of White Tiger General Qi Kanghu. He invited the leaders of the other two forces to discuss how to eliminate Duan Shubai in Xinyang City.

Qi Kanghu had a new hatred for Duan Shubai. He called himself the White Tiger General, and the story of Duan Shubai fighting the White Tiger alone and becoming a tiger-killing hero was widely circulated in Yangzhou. A tiger-killing hero, isn't it the natural enemy that is going to defeat him? This title was enough to make him uncomfortable, not to mention that there was something that was not to be told to outsiders.

He, Qi Kanghu, met a white tiger in the mountains when he was a child. The white tiger scared him so much that he ran away. After escaping from the tiger's mouth by chance, the white tiger left an indelible impression in his heart. He always believed that the white tiger was a heroic and brave creature, the king of beasts. So when he became an adult, he became the king of the mountain, calling himself the White Tiger, and felt extremely glorious. Duan Shubai's clean and neat act of killing the tiger was to trample on his heart deeply...

In addition, Duan Shubai's bandit suppression in the north of Xiya Mountain made Qi Kanghu unable to sleep or eat, and he wished to get rid of Duan Shubai as soon as possible.

"What? Liu San was arrested!" Qi Kanghu swept the table, and with a few "bangs", the wine bowls, chopsticks and dishes fell to the ground.

He, Jiuli King Pan Yuan and Cai Yecheng and other three forces held a banquet here. After a round of toasts and a happy banquet, what they waited for was not the good news that Liu San returned victoriously and set fire to the city, but the bad news that Liu San and his party were caught in the act by Duan Shubai's clever trap. The night's expectation turned into empty joy. Qi Kanghu was furious, his eyes widened and his beard trembled.

Cai Yecheng, who was drunk and confused, was sobered up by the sound of porcelain plates breaking. The eyes of the King of Jiuli beside him turned.

Qi Kanghu boasted that he would give Duan Shubai a warning, but in the end, he failed to show his power and was rebuffed.

"Master, please be patient. Duan Shubai has thousands of well-trained soldiers under his command. They patrol day and night and guard the city tightly. They have made Xinyang City as solid as a rock. We are just one or two hundred minions. It is not surprising that we are defeated by him." Guo, the think tank beside Qi Kanghu, said in surprise.

Qi Kanghu raised his eyebrows, "You are boosting others' morale and destroying your own prestige."

"Boss, Duan Shubai has been marching and fighting for many years, and his soldiers are experienced in fighting the enemy. We will never get any good results if we go head-on with them. But - even if his soldiers are brave, there are only a thousand of them. They can defend Xinyang City like a rock, but what about Yangcheng? And the large and small villages near Yangcheng? Can he defend so many places one by one?"
