Duke Fang looked up and found Xiao Qingyu showed up out of the tent, half-smiling at the four people on the ground.

The mocking gaze made the four big men shuddering…

More annoying was that Zhang Jinya stood next to his childe and jeered at them loudly, “You four generals guarded outside the tent for the whole night?! Thank you so much for your caring! It must be hard in the cold night! —”

The four wanted to hang themselves out of shame!

“Jinya,” Xiao Qingyu stopped them gently, “Don't be rude.”

Zhang Jinya replied joyfully, “Yes, Childe.”

Xiao Qingyu sat restfully in the wheelchair, his face beautiful as illusory in the morning sunrays.

His white fingers flicked, and a golden light shot from his fingertips!

“Umm~~!” The four of them reflexively shrank down their heads!

They only felt their bodies loosened, and the ropes on their wrists and ankles were broken.

Set free, the four hurriedly climbed up, “Thank you, Childe! Thank you!”

The lesson that they had learnt last night was still vivid in their minds!

Xiao Qingyu gently comforted, “I was just lucky to win. Although I won the bet this time, you volunteered to take the punishment because you chose to keep your words. It's normal to lose a game from time to time. You were just unlucky.”

Bet? What bet?

The four men were dumbfounded.

Having punished them, Xiao Qingyu didn't push aggressively in an arrogant manner. He had a chest broad as ocean, considerately thought for them and helped disguise their fault. This behavior touched the generals deeply.

Gao You folded his fists in shame, “Childe is a great man. I feel so ashamed!”

Even Jia Muqi, who was afraid of nothing, was conquered by him, “Childe is a great wise man and martial artist. I lost!”

Li Shenghu yelled, “I never yielded to anyone in my life, except for Duke Fang and Childe! From this day on, anyone who stirs up troubles with Childe is asking for troubles from me!”

Yu Bin could only desperately nod to express his grat.i.tude.

Duke Fang, wearing the red scarf, stood next to Xiao Qingyu and joked with them, “What? Now you surrendered?”

The four faces became b.l.o.o.d.y red from shame, “Duke Fang has a sharp eye for talent. It's our fault to have been short-sighted and judged a person by his appearance…”

Fang Junqian closed his eyes, thinking for a long while before opening them again, and only said one thing to the generals, “From now on, his words represent my words!”

On the first day, Childe Wushuang set up his authority and prestige in the army!

This was also known later as the first public appearance of “the peerless duo”—Fang Junqian and Xiao Qingyu!

Afterwards, it only took four days before all the voices of doubts and dissatisfaction in Bafang about Xiao Qingyu disappeared completely.

On the first day of Xiao Qingyu's entry into the Commander's Office, he began to rectify the military discipline, officially exercised his duties and stipulated rules and regulations in Bafang… Ever since arriving at Bafang, Fang Junqian finally rid out of the complicated exhausting affairs and had a sound sleep.

Due to Yinghui War, many constructions had been delayed, and Xiao Qingyu started to streamline these on the second day, so that Bafang began to run efficiently.

According to Duke Fang's estimation, with Xiao Qingyu here, Bafang was operating at a speed three times higher than it had been.

The training and s.h.i.+fts of the frontier guarding soldiers…

The stacking of grains and weapons…

The care and accommodation of sacrificed and wounded soldiers…

The disposition of war prisoners and the arrangement for surrenders…

The new-formation rehearsal against the enemy's comeback…

And the restructuring guarantee of logistics system for the 700,000 soldiers…

Fang Junqian didn't know whether Xiao Qingyu would feel tired, but every night, after he dealt with piles of mind-blowing affairs of Bafang, he could still wear a calm and relaxed face and enjoy playing chess with Duke Fang.

All those seemed to be wonders to others were merely one comment in the mouth of Childe Wushuang, “We couldn't do better given the limited condition!”

Couldn't do better?

He could make it even better?

Duke Fang smiled helplessly on the words.

Once when they played chess, Duke Fang joked, “If we want a peaceful and happy life, I'd just let you deal with all these affairs.”

Xiao Qingyu cautiously warned Fang Junqian, “A superior must rely on himself. Don't entirely trust others.”

Fang Junqian blurted out, “But I trust you. You're not one of the others. You're Qingyu.”

If it was Qingyu… If it was Qingyu who stood by my side, I wouldn't be daunted a bit even the heaven's G.o.ds were going to destroy me!!

A war was coming soon!
