I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

Chapter 150 - 150 Luring the Wolf



150 Luring the Wolf

“Although there are a lot of them, most of them are newbies who have never touched swords or spears before!”

When Pei Qian heard Lu Ze’s report, he was still unhappy.

Although Lu Ze had helped increase the number of people by 300 this time, many of these young people who had just been recruited from the refugee camp still looked like children!

They were still 16 to 17 years old!

“You were the one who complained that there weren’t enough people, so I thought of a way to help you get some.”

Lu Ze glanced at the map on the table in front of him and retorted calmly.

“Alright, you’re right. It’s already good enough that we can find people. We really can’t be too picky about other things.” Pei Qian thought for a moment and agreed to Lu Ze’s arrangements.

Since Pei Qian had agreed to Lu Ze’s suggestion, Pei Qian repeated what Lu Ze had promised the Fang family to the other youths.

Of course, his recount was much more harsher than what Lu Ze had said previously!

For example, since they had decided to join the army, from the moment they made the promise, they couldn’t repent anymore! They were only allowed to advance and couldn’t retreat. Deserters would be killed!

After Pei Qian’s warning, seven to eight men gave up, but most of them made up their minds and stayed.

Lu Ze instructed Qian He to arrange for these people to register and prepare. Then, he got someone to bring them to meet up with the personal guards that Gao Xuwei had brought previously to watch the torture.

Lin Suisui slept until she got enough rest. When she woke up and came out of the ox cart, she happened to meet the Fang family’s second son, who had lifted the curtain and staggered back. Seeing his pale face, she couldn’t help but be surprised. “What’s wrong?!”

“Madam Liu, I…” When the Fang family’s second son thought of what he had seen previously, he couldn’t help but cover his mouth and rush to the side. He retched a few times, but nothing came out.

“It’s fine. It’s his first time watching the torture scene. He’ll get used to it.” When Wu Liu came over and heard Lin Suisui’s question, he smiled and replied for the Fang family’s second son, who was vomiting. “In the future, when we go to the battlefield, the scene of flesh and blood flying will be much more terrifying than this. He should get used to it as soon as possible!”

After hearing Wu Liu’s explanation, Lin Suisui heaved a sigh of relief and didn’t stay any longer. She turned around and went to look for Mrs. Luo to see if there was anything delicious.

After a day of torture, not only the Fang family’s second son, but the others who had watched the torture with him weren’t any better. When they were gathered together for simple training the next morning, many people had yet to recover from yesterday’s shock. However, the lieutenant in charge of teaching them wasn’t so patient. After a round of scolding, he asked these people to pick up their weapons again and start practicing simple slashing and blocking techniques.

Enemies might come at any time. Although such training might not last long, it was better to learn more skills than to do nothing.

“Why aren’t you letting us bury the corpses of those northern barbarians?!”

Pei Qian and Lu Ze stood in front of the tent and looked at the recruits who were training their slashing techniques at the foot of the hill. After watching for a long time, Pei Qian turned around and asked Lu Ze, who was quiet but ruthless.

He had never lived in the north, but he had heard that leading troops there was completely different from leading troops in the south.

The soldiers from the northern barbarians were more inclined to fight straightforwardly, unlike the southern barbarians, who had all kinds of tricks to deal with them!

“Didn’t you arrange for scouts to go out and investigate? Since those northern barbarians have already entered the border, they can’t have traveled so long just to attack the camp, right?!

“Tell the scouts not to investigate other places now. Just find the location of this group of northern barbarians!” Lu Ze turned around and entered the tent. Then, he pointed at the map on the table and said to Pei Qian, “It’s impolite not to reciprocate. Since they ambushed us, if we don’t give them a greeting gift, we’ll seem too petty!”

“We don’t have enough people to deal with them!” Pei Qian frowned. Although Lu Ze’s arrangement was good, he didn’t have enough people!

It was fine for the new recruits to stay in the camp and help guard the camp, but if they had to leave the camp to complete a sneak attack, it would be impossible!

“Who said that only humans can do ambushes?!” Lu Ze turned around and looked at Pei Qian with disdain as he said, “The wolves outside are very hungry now! The hundred corpses left behind by the northern barbarians are the best bait!”

In the end, this matter was handed over to Lu Ze.

Lu Ze pointed out more than 20 seasoned soldiers in the camp and told everyone his plan. Without any objections, everyone began to work.

“I’m afraid it’s not enough.” When Lin Suisui heard Lu Ze’s arrangements, she didn’t stop him. Instead, she hesitated for a moment before saying, “In the past, when I went to Sichuan with my master, the farmstead there often encountered rats during the harvest.

If the cats couldn’t kill them all, some old people would use the local prescription passed down from their ancestors.

First, they arranged for a rat-catching mechanism to capture rats. Then, they chose the strongest batch and blocked their anus with soybeans before feeding them bean cakes mixed with medicine.

After these rats were released, they became irritable from the bloated sensation. Coupled with the medicine, these rats would go crazy and bite their companions!

At that time, my mentor was curious, so he asked the old man about the prescription used to stimulate the rat’s madness.

After obtaining the prescription, my mentor used it on many animals, such as cats and dogs. Later on, he discovered that this medicine is effective on many animals!”

Lin Suisui looked at Lu Ze. Seeing that he was silent, she pursed her lips and added, “I know how to concoct this medicine. Moreover, I have enough materials!”

“If you configure it now, how long will it take?!” Lu Ze looked at Lin Suisui with bright eyes and asked without hesitation.

“One night! That’s all the time I need!” Lin Suisui estimated before giving Lu Ze an answer. “If someone helps me, I can get it done even faster!”

“It’s not convenient for others to interfere in this matter.” Lu Ze nodded and said without hesitation, “Let’s go. I’ll help you. We’ll go over and prepare now!”
