Butcher Bai Qi

Zhao Kuo nodded and replied, "Of course I know, the Qin general Wang He!"

"Tsk tsk tsk--"

Verdant Green Maiden shook her head and said, "Wrong!"

"Wrong?"

Zhao Kuo frowned and asked, "Where did I go wrong?"

Verdant Green Maiden jumped down and said to Zhao Kuo, "The one fighting you isn't some Wang He, his surname is Bai!"

"Bai..."

Zhao Kuo froze, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he realized what Verdant Green Maiden meant!

Among the Qin generals, the one surnamed Bai, who could make Verdant Green Maiden say his name so solemnly, and who could command hundreds of thousands of Qin troops, there was only one!

Zhao Kuo murmured, "Lord Wu'an, Bai Qi?"

Verdant Green Maiden snapped her fingers and said, "That's right, it's him, Bai Qi! You all will call him the Butcher from now on."

"It's actually him..."

"It's really him..."

"All these days, I haven't received any news!"

Zhao Kuo felt a little panicked, but he quickly suppressed his panic, looked at Verdant Green Maiden, and asked with a frown, "Verdant Green Maiden, how did you know? You are trapped here with me, who told you such confidential information?"

"I know everything."

Verdant Green Maiden wiggled her finger and asked, "How is it? Scared out of your wits?"

Zhao Kuo took a deep breath, his expression firm, "Of course not! Even if the opponent is Bai Qi, I will not retreat!"

"This battle is a battle for the survival of Great Zhao!"

"But... you can't break out."

Verdant Green Maiden looked at Zhao Kuo's serious expression and said to him slowly, "How about it, why don't you beg me? If you beg me, I might be able to save you! But these Zhao soldiers, I can't do anything, there are too many of them."

"Verdant Green Maiden... you're not human, are you?"

Zhao Kuo looked at Verdant Green Maiden, hesitated for a moment, and then asked this question.

This question sounded like an insult, but Verdant Green Maiden hummed and said, "Yes, I'm not, how did you know?"

"We've known each other for several years, and I've become weathered and haggard, but you are still so beautiful. It's hard not to be suspicious. Moreover, you can remain calm amidst millions of soldiers. This is not something an ordinary woman can do!"

Zhao Kuo looked at Verdant Green Maiden and suddenly asked, "You can save me, which proves your skill is not ordinary! What if I ask you to kill Bai Qi?"

Verdant Green Maiden shook her head and said, "I won't go."

"Even you can't kill Bai Qi?"

Seeing Verdant Green Maiden shake her head, Zhao Kuo's pupils contracted. Could it be that this Bai Qi was truly a god of slaughter sent from Heaven?

Verdant Green Maiden could, but she didn't want to!

The general trend of the world was already gradually converging on Qin. Verdant Green Maiden could see the Auspicious Fortune. After this battle, no strong enemy would be able to resist Qin's Auspicious Fortune! What she needed was the convergence of Auspicious Fortune, so why would she disturb it herself?

Moreover, she had tried to change history.

Verdant Green Maiden fell silent, and Zhao Kuo also became quiet. He didn't say anything more to Verdant Green Maiden and went to discuss countermeasures with the other generals of the Zhao Army.

The night of the forty-fifth day since the Zhao Army was surrounded.

Within the Zhao Army at this time, besides living people, there was nothing edible left!

Whether it was horses or the corpses of other fallen Zhao soldiers.

Zhao Kuo's face was frighteningly pale. He sat opposite Verdant Green Maiden by a bonfire. The firelight reflected on their faces, and their expressions were different. Verdant Green Maiden's demeanor was as usual, her complexion ruddy; the Zhao Army's lack of food had not affected her at all.

"Verdant Green Maiden, what exactly are your abilities..."

Zhao Kuo looked at Verdant Green Maiden and asked softly, he no longer had much strength to speak.

You can't find the book by searching the name, you can try searching the author, maybe it was just renamed!

Seeing Zhao Kuo like this, Verdant Green Maiden sighed softly, beckoned to the sky, and Hong Luan flew down from the sky, dropping a small Wild Chicken in front of Verdant Green Maiden.

"Divine Bird?"

Zhao Kuo's pupils contracted.

He looked at Hong Luan's blue wings, his expression astonished. "A blue bird..."

Zhao Kuo had never seen a Qing Niao of this color. He quickly realized something and murmured, "I've heard this legend. When the Zhou Heavenly Son went west to Kunlun Mountain to meet the Queen Mother of the West, it was a Qing Niao that guided him! Is it a legendary Divine Bird?"

"Mhm."

Verdant Green Maiden hummed.

Zhao Kuo looked at Verdant Green Maiden, "Then you..."

"Me? I am Verdant Green Maiden."

Verdant Green Maiden pointed to herself, chuckled, cleaned the Wild Chicken, and then roasted it.

"To be honest, it's only because this place is far from your soldiers that I dare to roast chicken here. If the smell attracts them, it'll be trouble!"

One or two would be fine, but forty thousand men!

Verdant Green Maiden didn't have the ability to get food for all of them. Seeing her eat would only add to their distress.

Zhao Kuo stared at the sizzling, oily roast chicken, swallowing his saliva. Verdant Green Maiden generously gave him a portion.

Zhao Kuo thanked Verdant Green Maiden and said, "Tomorrow, I will lead the troops to break out!"

"Too late."

Verdant Green Maiden said as she ate.

What strength did the Zhao Army, now starving to this extent, have to break through the encirclement of Qin's five to six hundred thousand troops? Not to mention the unknown number of males aged fifteen and above from Hedong and Henei commanderies.

Zhao Kuo naturally knew this, but he had no other choice!

"Perhaps later generations will record me, Zhao Kuo, as a sinner for all time!"

Zhao Kuo looked up at the night sky, sighing.

"But you've already done well enough, you're just not as good as Bai Qi! During these forty-odd days, the Zhao Army has not mutinied or defected, and their organization remains intact. This is better than most people!" Verdant Green Maiden clapped her hands and said to Zhao Kuo, "You just had bad luck, running into Bai Qi."

"Luck..."

Zhao Kuo chuckled softly upon hearing this.

The next day, Zhao Kuo led his army out!

He divided the forty thousand Zhao Army into four echelons, charging in turns. However, the starving Zhao Army was no match for the Qin Army. After Zhao Kuo died in the chaos, the remaining Zhao Army, leaderless, could only surrender to the Qin Army!

Many people died on the battlefield of Changping.

Verdant Green Maiden dragged Zhao Kuo's corpse and walked into the distance. Hong Luan let out a long cry, flapping its wings and soaring high into the sky. The Qin Army tried to stop her, and many were severely injured by her.

Amidst the large army, a verdant green clad woman dragging the corpse of the Zhao Army's commander. This news immediately reached Bai Qi's ears.

Bai Qi rode his horse, bringing countless Qin troops with him, blocking Verdant Green Maiden's path.

"Is that corpse Zhao Kuo?"

Bai Qi's gaze fell on Zhao Kuo behind Verdant Green Maiden, and he asked with a frown.

Verdant Green Maiden hummed and waved her hand, "Move aside, I need to take him back for burial. I'm in a hurry."

"Presumptuous!"

Someone roared.

Verdant Green Maiden's gaze turned cold, and she kicked a stone at her feet.

The stone instantly pierced the right shoulder of the speaker. The armor was unstoppable, and bone and muscle shattered directly! He immediately bled profusely, clutching his right shoulder in pain.

Such inhuman methods made Bai Qi's expression grave. He raised a hand to press down the others behind him, dismounted, and cupped his hands towards Verdant Green Maiden.

"I am Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an of Qin. May I ask the Young Lady's name?"
