In the northwest corner of Race Yard Barracks was a large area of wooden houses and thatched huts. In the open space outside, there were long wooden shelves, and on top of them were many fishing nets that seemed very similar to the fishing villages by the sea. There were dozens of bonfires burning around the wooden shelves. Under the illumination of the flames, the fishing nets were like giant spider webs.

Er Yu pointed to the fishing nets, smiling as he asked, "Do you know why Tan Shihuai captured those Japanese s now?"

During the era of Guang Wu, the Volcano slaves sent messengers to the Luoyang, and Emperor Guang Wu gave the golden seal of 'the King of the Han Dynasty's slaves' to the Japanese. Over the past hundred years, the pirates had come to pay tribute to the court dozens of times, and each time they had received a reward from the imperial government. As the Purgatory Country always landed on the Gao Li Peninsula, and then transferred to the Xuantu and Lelang Counties, and headed to Luoyang or Chang'an from there, they were caught by Tan Shihuai that year.

"How many of them are there now?" Gongsun Xu hurriedly asked. He did not care if the Japanese was an expert in fishing at all, he only wanted to understand the current situation of the Japan as much as possible before conquering the Japan as soon as possible. He had the ambition and ambition to chase Zhulu world, but he did not have the confidence to win. If he could take Japan in his hands, even if he failed in the future, he and his family would have a way out.

Er Yu reported a bunch of numbers without even thinking, "There are a total of two thousand three hundred and fifty-seven people, nine hundred and twenty men in their prime, and one hundred and thirty-one boys."

Gongsun Xu gaped at Er Yu. How could she know about this in such detail?

Er Yu smiled sweetly, and the words that came next answered the question that was on Gongsun Xu's mind, "Other than fishing, these Japanese s normally have to go to the palace or pasture to do some work, so they need a commander. Does Darling understand? "

Gongsun Xu asked in surprise, "You are the commander?"

"Can't I?" Er Yu snorted, intentionally stuck out his chest and sucked Gongsun Xu's gaze, as he said haughtily: "Two years ago, when I had just turned fourteen, and we had even made it so that I could command these Japanese s. The Ju Zi you saw last time was the daughter of the leader of the Japanese. "

"So powerful!" Gongsun Xu gave a thumbs up, but his gaze was still fixed on the other party's proud twin peaks. He snickered: "But I think that this place is even more powerful.

Er Yu was stunned for a while before he realized what was happening. He immediately got a big whites of his eyes and a few bite marks on his arm. After laughing for a while, the two of them walked to the house in front of them. Gongsun Jia and his brother along with a few dozen people followed from a distance.

The sound of footsteps alarmed the dogs in the village. Just as Gongsun Xu and Er Yu walked to the entrance of the village, a man with a head not even six feet tall ran over, knelt on the ground seven or eight steps away, and respectfully asked: "Master, it's already so late, do you have any instructions to come here?"

Er Yu said indifferently: "Stand up."

The man kowtowed respectfully and stood up. Then he spread his arms and looked down at his toes.

"This person is the current leader of the Japanese. He was almost whipped to death by me last year. I saved his life." Er Yu pointed at the man, introduced him to Gongsun Xu, and then said to the man: City's Sanlang, this general of Han Dynasty has something to ask you, you cannot lie to him.

Sanlang? Gongsun Xu was a little surprised to hear this name. Even after more than a thousand years, Japanese who had her own surname should either be a noble or a royal family, and Sanlang should not be an ordinary person. At this point of time, the Volkswagen should still be a slave society, but they did not know who the king was.

"Here!" Please rest assured master, I will tell you the truth. Master, it's cold outside, do you want to talk inside? " Urban Sanlang spoke in Chinese, his accent wasn't at all like the Japanese that Gongsun Xu remembered at all, it sounded more like Chinese with a fresh and low accent.

"Then let's talk inside." Er Yu lightly pulled Gongsun Xu's hand and walked towards the largest room.

Sanlang, the city's third son, bowed as he followed, maintaining a distance of three steps.

The room was simple, and the layout was similar to that of the Han Chinese. Inside was a small main hall with a fireplace four or five feet square in the middle. The cow dung inside was burning brightly, and on the right was a door that led to the inner room. The door was hung with thick curtains. On the wall in front of him, there was a table about two feet high. On the wooden knife holder, there was a slightly curved knife. There were a few straw mats around the fire pit, but nothing else.

"Ju Zi! Ju Zi! " Sanlang shouted inside.

"Father, what's the matter?" 's clear and melodious voice came from inside. She was speaking in the vulgar language, so Gongsun Xu was barely able to understand the word 'father'.

"Master and a distinguished Chinese general are here. Bring out two clean pieces of cloth."

"Master is here?" Ju Zi's voice seemed to be filled with joy. Very quickly, he came out with two pieces of white cloth.

"What are you blanking out for? Hurry up and spread the cloth on the prayer mat, so as not to dirty Master and the noble General's clothes. "

"Here!" Ju Zi hurriedly walked over and placed two pieces of white cloth on the praying mat beside the fire pit.

Sanlang bowed and said, "This place is very simple and crude. We can only let Master and our esteemed General down for now."

After Er Yu and Gongsun Xu sat down, Metropolitan Sanlang waved her hand, and Ju Zi returned to her room after bowing.

Gongsun Xu waved his hand: "Sanlang, you should sit down as well."

Sanlang took a glance at Er Yu, and when he saw her nod her head, he immediately thanked her and sat down.

It was only then that Gongsun Xu saw Sanlang's face clearly. He had a big round face and a slightly sunken nose, but his eyes were very tiny, making him look extremely comical. His hair was also not like the Tang Lun or Yue Tou in Gongsun Xu's memories, but it was disheveled like the Xianbei People's, tied up behind his head with a black rope. If it wasn't for the fact that Gongsun Xu knew that he was from Japanese, he would have thought that Sanlang was just an ordinary commoner in the city.

Gongsun Xu rubbed his hands over the fire and asked: "How old are you?"

"I'm thirty-nine years old," said Sanlang, bowing deeply and respectfully.

"Thirty-nine." Gongsun Xu calculated the time simply and asked, "When you were captured by King Tan Shihuai all those years ago, you were already a twenty year old adult?"

"Yes, I was twenty-seven at the time."

"Since that's the case, you should be clear about the situation in Japan, right?"

"This little one knows a little about it." Sanlang hesitated slightly before saying in a low voice, "All I know is that there are chaotic battles everywhere. Many people are homeless and have died in the middle of wars or cold and hunger."

Right now, the Japan should not be a time for a group of village chiefs to fight, right? Gongsun Xu wondered.

In fact, at this time, the country was known as the 'Lifetime' (named after the discovery of the 'Lifetime' pottery in the Eastern Capital of the Japan, which was probably a technique passed down from the Qin and Han Dynasties). It had just evolved from the Stone and Wood Age to the Bronze and Iron Age, whereas the Bronze and Iron Age was first passed on by the famous Founder Xu Fu of the Qin Dynasty. The most important thing that Xu Fu had passed on was actually rice. Rice caused the Japan to evolve from the era of fishing and hunting to the era of farming, which led to more chaotic battles because of the increase in population.

Gongsun Xu was too lazy to guess anymore, and asked: "What's your identity in Japan?"

City's Sanlang sneaked a glance at Er Yu and replied in embarrassment, "I am the general of a slave country."

"Sanlang, what kind of general are you? Why didn't you report it earlier? " Er Yu was very surprised, his face could not help but be angry.

Sanlang's body trembled as he hurriedly tried to defend himself, "This lowly one's power is small, and I only have a little more than a hundred soldiers under my command. It's much less than the number of people who are in charge of Master right now. This lowly one really doesn't have the face to say anything!"

Er Yu coldly snorted, too lazy to bother with such a small matter.

Gongsun Xu asked: "Where in the Japan is the Slave Nation located? How many are there? "

"Reporting to General, slave country is in the south of Japan, there are around 200,000-300,000 people in the entire country."

"Two to three hundred thousand people." Er Yu could not help but laugh.

When Sanlang heard Er Yu's laughter, the shame on her face grew even stronger. Previously, when she was in the Japan, he thought that since Slave Slave Nation could be ranked second in the Japan, it should not be too far off from the Han Dynasty.

Gongsun Xu smiled and asked: "What rank is Slave Nation's strength ranked at in the Japan?"

"Being able to rank second!" The one in first place is the Evil Horse Nation which is controlled by the Queen Bei Mihu. They have over a million people in their entire country and the entire northern part of Japan belongs to the Queen Bei Mihu. "

What the heck are the evil Ma Tai Nation and Queen Bei Mihu? Gongsun Xu and Er Yu looked at each other, puzzled. It was a good thing that Sanlang did not wait to ask about it this time and just started talking about Queen Bei Mihu's matter.

"Six or seven years ago, the four great nations of the Japan were in chaos. The small nations fought non-stop, and many people died every day. At this time, a witch called Bei Mihu appeared in the northern part of the Xie Ma Tai Kingdom. She had a powerful mana and quickly obtained the fanatical support of the people. With this, Bei Mihu gained a large army, and started to fight everywhere, unifying the north of Japan in just three to four years, and was chosen by many little kings as the queen of the evil Matai Nation. "

Witch? Magic power? The corner of Gongsun Xu's mouth twitched. Was Sanlang telling a ghost story?

Er Yu asked curiously: "Does that Bei Mihu really have magic power?"

There was fear in Sanlang's eyes as he hesitated and said, "I've never seen this person before, but I heard that many people have seen him with their own eyes."

"Interesting! Very interesting! " Er Yu clapped his hands and smiled: "If there's ever a chance in the future, you must definitely meet this Queen Bei Mihu."

Gongsun Xu looked at Er Yu helplessly. What was so good about a mere female village chief who was pretending to be mysterious or even a female county magistrate? He frowned and asked, "So you're saying that even if all the other small countries join forces, they still won't be able to defeat the Maltese Empire?"

"Yes, General!" Sanlang immediately nodded in agreement, and sighed: "The Evil Mattai Country is too strong, the little kings of the Japan simply do not dare to fight against them."

"If we send out the Xianbei People or Han Chinese troops, how many troops do you think will be needed to defeat Bei Mihu?"

"A maximum of ten thousand people is enough!" Without hesitation, Sanlang gave a number. He laughed disdainfully: "Although Bei Mihu's army is numerous, but they are all farmers and refugees. How can they compare to the fresh and poor Chinese army? If the general's army is as strong as the King Lian's army, then ten thousand soldiers would be enough to wipe out the Japan! "

"He really doesn't know anything!" Er Yu scoffed and laughed coldly, "City's Sanlang, the Chinese general in front of you is called Gongsun Xu. His army is much stronger than Duke Lian's army! Su Li's five thousand men were defeated by the three thousand men of the General Gongsun in a short span of half an hour. Only a few hundred of them managed to escape! If the situation in the Japan is as you say, then we can sweep everything away with a maximum of five thousand people! "

City's Sanlang turned pale with fright. "Su Li? That fierce and combative Prince Xian of the Right? "

Er Yu said coldly: "That's him! Su Li still hasn't woken up from his coma, so maybe he won't live past tomorrow. "

"This lowly one shall retract my disrespectful words, please forgive me, General!" City's Sanlang crouched on the ground, kowtowing and saying: "The general's army is really brave and unparalleled, wanting to conquer the Japan's five thousand people is indeed enough!"

Gongsun Xu smiled indifferently: "If you want to cross the ocean to go to Japan, how can you travel safely?"

Er Yu was shocked: "Could it be that General Gongsun really wants to conquer Japan?"

Gongsun Xu looked at Er Yu, and said gently: "I want to leave my family an additional way out!"

Er Yu's heart warmed, this' family 'naturally included her, and since Gongsun Xu wanted to conquer Japan, she did not mind helping him! She stood up and walked in front of Sanlang. She pulled out the sword from her waist and placed it on his shoulder as she coldly asked, "Sanlang, can I trust you?"

"My life was saved by Master. As long as it's something Master wants, I'll do it with all my might!"

Er Yu tapped his sword on Sanlang's shoulder a few times, and said coldly: "Go and choose five hundred strong men. When the time comes, bring an army back to the Japan, and help the generals of the army to conquer the Japan! After this is done, you will become a true general, a general capable of leading thousands of men! If anything goes wrong, cut your own head off! "

"Here!" Please rest assured master, I swear by the Blood Alliance that I will do everything that master tells me to do! " As he spoke, Sanlang took out a dagger from his waist and made a deep cut on his left arm. Immediately, blood spurted out of the wound.

Er Yu nodded in satisfaction. "Very good! I believe in your loyalty! Now, let me tell you one more thing. This General Gongsun Xu is the son of the Northern Overlord. If you succeed in this matter, not only will you become a general, your daughter Ju Zi and the children of General Gongsun Xu will also become the kings of Japan! "

"What?" Gongsun Xu and Sanlang exclaimed at the same time. The former was shock, while the latter was ecstasy and disbelief.

Ju Zi, who was secretly eavesdropping in the house, blushed. How could the master give him away to someone else?

Er Yu cast an apologetic smile at Gongsun Xu, and said to Sanlang: "You didn't hear wrong! City's Sanlang, your grandson will become the King of Japan! What else can you not do to achieve this goal? "You don't dare to do it?"

At that time, he was just a rundown aristocrat who didn't have anything to eat. He was already very satisfied when he was lucky enough to become a general of a slave country. However, when he arrived at Great Han Dynasty, he realized just how ridiculous his thoughts were! If there really comes a day when his own grandson becomes the king of Japan, and is even the king of Japan, then how glorious would that be! In such a large Japan, who would still dare to look down on him?

"Even if I have to sacrifice my life, I have to help the General's men to sweep away Japan!" City's Sanlang once again kowtowed, but the target was Gongsun Xu.

Gongsun Xu glared at Er Yu, walked over and supported Sanlang, then laughed: "You have to work hard, and pay more attention to your own safety! The day that your grandson becomes the King of Japan, this general will definitely give you a chance to show your face! "

"Thank you, General!" City's Sanlang bowed and said, "My daughter Ju Zi is very mischievous sometimes, I hope that General can take care of his!"

Gongsun Xu patted his shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, Ju Zi will not be wronged."

"Thank you, General!" Sanlang thanked him again, took two steps back, and then bowed.

Er Yu laughed and shouted towards the inside: "Ju Zi, come out and greet General Gongsun Xu!"

The door curtain was gently pushed open, and Ju Zi tiptoed over to Gongsun Xu, kneeling down to kowtow.

Gongsun Xu secretly sighed, and extended his hand to help Ju Zi up. He was not used to letting a little girl kowtow to him, furthermore, the little girl was already his.

Ju Zi's shoulders trembled as he stood up, as though he was at a loss of what to do.

Last time at the Wuhuan of Liaodong's camp, Gongsun Xu did not see Ju Zi's face clearly. Only now did he realise that the little girl had a porcelain doll face, his pair of big eyes extremely intelligent and adorable.

"How old are you?" he asked, letting go.

Ju Zi timidly replied: "This servant is fifteen years old."

Fifteen years old? He looked like a child, but wasn't he too far off from a seventeen year old Er Yu? Gongsun Xu could not help but look at Er Yu, in exchange for his winking smile.

Gongsun Xu smiled bitterly as he shook his head and ordered: "City's Sanlang, don't tell anyone else about this general's visit today, understand?"

"Here!" I have never seen the general today. " Sanlang's mind was spinning very quickly.

Er Yu also instructed: "If He Lian asks me why I'm here, just tell me that a few of Japanese's and General Gongsun's subordinates have had a slight conflict and have been successfully resolved by me! Have you noted it down? "

"Here!" This little one knows what to say. "

Er Yu yawned, covered his mouth and said softly: "Alright, it's already midnight, time to go back and rest. Ju Zi, pack up and follow me to the palace. "

"Here." Ju Zi flew in and quickly brought out a small bundle.

"Let's go."

Sanlang sent Gongsun Xu and the other two off to the entrance of the village. After watching them disappear into the night, he couldn't help but clench his fists and jump into the night sky as he shouted excitedly.
