King of Hundred Victories Saber

Shi Feiyang spoke while scanning the crowd, his gaze firm and confident, having already seen the future situation.

The heroes were initially taken aback by Shi Feiyang’s words, but then their faces broke into expressions of sudden realization.

A sense of admiration towards Shi Feiyang grew in their hearts, and they all clasped their fists in praise: ”The Grand Squad Leader is farsighted and meticulous, truly a role model for us. From now on, we shall only act according to the Grand Squad Leader’s command, never again breaching the regulations of the Heroic Sakura Association, nor deciding on major matters on our own. We will follow the Grand Squad Leader’s orders unconditionally, ready to face danger and fire without hesitation!”

Their voices were loud and resonant, like the tolling of a great bell, echoing within the tent with overwhelming momentum.

Xiao Lingling felt her blood boil even more, her brows raised and eyes shining with excitement as she clenched her fists and raised them high, shouting loudly: ”Heroic Sakura rises high, invincible in the world, uniting the Jianghu forever and ever!”

The voice was crisp yet powerful, as though it could pierce the clouds.

The heroes were immediately inspired, shouting in unison, their voices uniform and causing the tent to tremble slightly.

In an instant, the tent was filled with a high spirit and fervent passion.

Shi Feiyang, seeing this scene, couldn’t help but laugh heartily; his laughter was bright and heroic, as if it could dispel all the darkness in the world.

He gestured for everyone to retreat, saying, ”Alright, alright, go out and eat and rest, waiting for the command to attack.”

The crowd, hearing this, again clasped their fists in salute and orderly filed out.

After the heroes had left, Yili couldn’t help but laugh as well; she laughed so heartily that she rocked back and forth, her smile as beautiful as a flower, her eyes curved like crescents, charming and delightful. As she laughed, she gently wiped the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, saying, ”Look at their expressions, it’s really amusing.”

Shi Feiyang looked at Yili, the corners of his mouth slightly turned up in a pampering smile, and said, ”What’s so funny? I tell you, if a man isn’t ruthless, his kingdom won’t be stable. I, your husband, am aiming for the eternal legacy of the Heroic Sakura Association, not the success of a single day or night. Since the western migration of the Oirats, the grasslands have split into many small tribes, and these tribes often fight fiercely over resources, people, and livestock, to the suffering of the common people. Therefore, I wholeheartedly want to bring peace and harmony to the grasslands so that the common people can live safely. Madam, next, some tribes will definitely target our fake caravan, and I plan to let you assume the role of leader of several tribal alliances; what do you think?”

Shi Feiyang spoke as he looked at Yili with bright eyes full of expectation. ”Really?” Hearing this, Yili was both surprised and delighted, her eyes widening in disbelief. She thought to herself, isn’t this just the opportunity to bring glory to my Hengshan Sect?

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but show her joy, the corners of her mouth turning up into a radiant smile, saying with a giggle, ”Husband, you’re really good!” Shi Feiyang nodded, his eyes full of trust and encouragement.

At that moment, Xie Wen hurriedly walked in, holding a carrier pigeon.

He knelt on one knee, his expression solemn, and said, ”Grand Squad Leader, we’ve just received a pigeon message that a group of Japanese pirates has allied with Lan Xiaodie, Dugu Yan, Fu Anxing, Xie Zhichuan, Zhong Renwang and several tribal forces, and they’re charging over here with great momentum.”

Upon hearing this, Shi Feiyang’s expression turned grim, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, ”Xie Wen, immediately summon Liao Pei, Lie Quan, Wu Zhong and the others for a discussion.”

Xie Wen took the order and quickly retreated.

Once Liao Pei, Lie Quan, Wu Zhong, and others arrived, Shi Feiyang, with a stern expression, looked at each one of them and said, ”Liao Pei, Lie Quan, from today on, you two must follow Madam Yili’s orders without error.”

Liao Pei and Lie Quan were taken aback upon hearing this, showing a hint of hesitation on their faces.

They exchanged a glance; though somewhat reluctant, they could not deny Shi Feiyang’s determined eyes. After a brief hesitation, they still nodded and clasped their fists saying, ”We follow the Grand Squad Leader’s command.”

Then, Shi Feiyang turned to Yili, saying earnestly, ”Madam, you’re to lead Liao Pei, Lie Quan, and the disciples of the Heroic Sakura Association to retreat ten miles. Bury gunpowder in all the tents set up now.”

Upon hearing this, Yili’s eyes flashed with excitement and tension; she nodded vigorously and said, ”Don’t worry, husband, I will not fail in my task.”

Then, Shi Feiyang looked toward Lin Wanqing and Gong Simeng, speaking gently, ”Wanqing, Si Meng, prepare yourselves. When the time comes, Wanqing you play the zither, Si Meng you dance, to greet those Japanese pirates, Lan Xiaodie, Dugu Yan, and other demons. This is a strategy to lure the enemy, you must not reveal any flaw.”

Lin Wanqing and Gong Simeng exchanged a glance, their eyes full of determination, responding in unison, ”Yes, husband.”

They understood in their hearts that though this strategy was risky, to repel strong foes for the Heroic Sakura Association, they must exert themselves fully.

Shi Feiyang’s expression remained calm, as though the world and its worries couldn’t trouble him.

He ate his lunch unhurriedly, each bite was steady and powerful, displaying the demeanor of a great general.

After the meal, he slowly stood up, his gaze like a torch, scanning the surroundings, he said loudly, ”Everyone, retreat with me.” With that, he led his family, Shi Xiong, and the ninety elite disciples from the headquarters of Heroic Sakura Association tasked with guarding the Grand Squad Leader, in a steady retreat five hundred steps away, hidden in a dense thicket, lying in ambush.

Everyone moved in unison, silently, like a group of well-trained night phantoms.

Not long after, far off dust clouds rolled, like a yellow dragon swirling upwards. Ye Ke’Er, the chief of the Naiman Tribe, and his son Tie Tie Zhen led over ten thousand cavalry, racing rapidly toward them. The sound of hooves thundered like skies, shaking the earth slightly.
