Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

"Let's hurry over there!"

Hearing Xiao Ce's words, the two Slavs were once again astonished.

"Is it over? Did they win or lose? Just like that, without a sound?"

Before Xiao Ce could speak, Xiao Zhan said with a smile and a hint of pride, "They gave us the signal, so of course we won!"

"We've really struck it rich this time!"

As Xiao Zhan spoke, he rubbed his hands together, looking like a money-grubber, and quickly climbed down from the city wall.

Xiao Ce followed closely behind.

The two Slavs looked at each other and then quickly followed.

They didn't know how they did it.

However, judging from how excited they were to go out, it probably wasn't fake.

...

They drove at high speed and arrived there.

The entire 'battlefield' was extremely quiet; not a single sound could be heard.

To be precise, apart from snoring, there was absolutely no sound.

At this moment, there was a large open space filled with Japanese people who had been tied up and stripped naked.

Because they were drugged, these people slept exceptionally soundly.

Since Yan Jia and his special forces unit didn't bring many ropes, they simply stripped off their clothes and made ropes from them.

Nikolayevich Ries and Rochasky Binder witnessed this scene and were both stunned.

Completely bewildered, they had no idea how they had managed to do it.

However, they did it.

They followed behind Xiao Ce and Xiao Zhan, while Nikolayevich Ries was shocked.

But Rochasky Binde, who understood warfare and had fought in battles, knew how difficult it was to capture someone alive in such a situation.

It's almost impossible.

Unless the people of Fusang cooperate with them in their act, which is of course absolutely impossible.

The facts have proven that they accomplished this through their abilities.

Rochaski Binder's mindset also underwent a subtle change because he asked himself honestly, he couldn't do it.

Not only could he not do it, but probably no one in the entire Slavic Empire could do it.

Yan Jia, who was originally in command, rushed over upon hearing the news of Xiao Ce and his group's arrival.

He was about to bow when Xiao Ce stopped him.

"No need for formalities, I hope everything is going well in Yanjia."

Yan Jia smiled and nodded: "It went very smoothly. These people from Fusang are just ordinary people, they don't have any superhuman abilities. It even went more smoothly than we imagined, after all, there were such cases in the training examples you gave us before! We just had to apply the abilities we learned in training as usual. Your Highness, your examples were really excellent, really very practical."

"Their defenses here aren't as rigorous as they were during their initial training. So everything is going very smoothly..."

Xiao Ce nodded: "Then you must have gained quite a bit."

Yan Jia nodded slightly, her voice slightly timid: "Your Highness, it really is... all the equipment and weapons they brought are brand new. Except for the cannonballs, which are worn out quite a bit, everything else is plentiful..."

Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Alright! Everything will be registered and recorded."

Xiao Ce looked at Xiao Zhan's excited and expectant expression.

"Then, hand everything over to His Highness Xiao Zhan."

When Xiao Zhan heard what Xiao Ce said, his mouth stretched wide open, and he laughed heartily.

"This isn't appropriate..."

Seeing Xiao Zhan's insincere expression, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Alright, there's nothing inappropriate! Why be so polite with me. However, I need a few sets of weapons to deliver to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion..."

Xiao Zhan nodded and said, "No problem! There's absolutely no problem with this."

Xiao Ce nodded and said, "Next, have your men replace the ambush crew, and then bring back all the captured artillery."

Xiao Zhan nodded respectfully.

"Go and replace the ropes that are binding them with stronger ones, and then wait for them to wake up, then you can take them all back."

Yan Jia nodded in agreement, and then brought over the handcuffs and shackles that they had prepared beforehand.

They got busy again.

The two people from the Slavic country were somewhat surprised by what they said.

From Yan Jia and Xiao Zhan's words, it's clear they've rehearsed similar scenarios countless times, and these rehearsals have various possibilities...

This was beyond their comprehension.

Xiao Ce, standing to the side, took some breakfast from their food and ate it.

After breakfast, the people of Fusang gradually began to wake up.

After the Japanese woke up, they looked around in a daze.

After all, they were sleeping in tents, and now they're shivering...

They then discovered they had been handcuffed and shackled...

And so they all started barking and cursing.

The most common phrase is still "Baka yarou".

At this moment, Xiao Zhan came over with great curiosity and asked Xiao Ce what they were talking about.

Before Xiao Ce could answer, Rochaski Binder, who was having breakfast with them, spoke first: "They're probably cursing you and telling you to let them leave."

Xiao Zhan looked at Xiao Ce with some surprise when he saw that Rochaski Binder could understand.

Xiao Ce smiled and nodded: "He's right..."

Before Xiao Ce could finish speaking, Xiao Zhan turned around and started cursing at the group, saying, "Damn it...a bunch of sons of bitches? Do you have dog brains?...Whoever yells the loudest, give them a good beating!"

After speaking, Xiao Zhan subconsciously glanced at Xiao Ce.

Seems to be asking.

Xiao Ce then said to Xiao Zhan, "If you want to fight, then go ahead. But this people are like stubborn mules; they won't move if you try to lead them, and they'll only back down if you try to fight them. Fighting them won't do any good. If you really want to fight, don't hurt them..."

Before Xiao Zhan could answer, Rochasky Binder, who was standing to the side, burst out laughing.

His laughter left Xiao Ce and Xiao Zhan somewhat bewildered.

Rochaski Bind waved his hand somewhat awkwardly: "I'm sorry, gentlemen, but what His Highness the King of the Northern Desert said was just too vivid... That's how that people are... It's probably useless for you to fight them."

Seeing this, Xiao Zhan said to Xiao Ce, "Then let's not fight anymore, Your Highness. Since you say so... you must have a way to deal with them... otherwise, wouldn't this just be causing us a lot of trouble when we get back?"

Xiao Ce nodded with a smile.

"I have a way to bring them back. Just treat them normally for now, do what you normally would. After we get them back, I'll have a way to deal with him."

Rochaski Binder said with some surprise, "Your Highness, since you understand this people, you should know that these guys cannot be tamed!"

Xiao Ce revealed a meaningful smile, then said, "There are no people in this world who cannot be tamed... only methods that cannot tame people..."

Xiao Ce stopped talking and stood up, saying, "Alright, it's time to go back."

Xiao Zhan said to Xiao Ce, "Yan Jia and his men caught a big fish, a general. Would you like to meet him alone?"

Xiao Ce waved his hand and said, "I won't see them until I've completely tamed them... It would be a waste of time to see them anyway."

With that, Xiao Ce went back first, after all, he was extremely sleepy after staying up all night.

At this moment, the Japanese prisoners were being led back by them.

They were initially stubborn, but later, news came from Takeda Nobunaga that they should pretend to submit to them first, and then find an opportunity...

Seeing that no one was looking for him, Takeda Nobunaga naively assumed that no one knew his identity.

Even now, he's still thinking that they should swallow their anger now and launch a desperate counterattack.

What they didn't know was that Takeda Nobunaga was being watched.

Moreover, there are people specifically who speak the Japanese language watching over them.

Many of these special operations teams have learned various languages.

Although I'm not an expert, it's not difficult for me to understand some normal meanings.

...

After Xiao Ce returned, these prisoners were handed over to Yan Jia.

Based on Yan Jia's experience, he put all the prisoners under guard.

After returning home, Xiao Ce immediately went to sleep.

Meanwhile, Xiao Xiangqing and Tang Ji started listening for any sounds as soon as it was light.

However, not a single sound was heard.

Xiao Xiangqing said to Tang Ji, "General Tang Ji, how are they fighting? There's not a sound at all! Logically speaking, by the time we've transported artillery shells over here, the fighting should have started! Why is there not a single sound!"

Tang Ji shook his head and said, "Don't worry, it's still early. Those Japanese are definitely full of confidence right now... Even though we're quite far away, we'll definitely be able to hear the commotion once the fighting starts! They're definitely planning something again."

Xiao Xiangqing nodded and then said, "That's right... then wait a moment."

They waited and waited until midday.

Around noon, Xiao Xiangqing went to see Tang Ji again: "General Tang Ji, why is there still no movement? Could something be wrong?"

Tang Ji's expression was also not good: "I've already sent people to scout... Even if we're just waiting, it's time to start the war!"

Xiao Xiangqing said, "Could it be that they're afraid and deliberately haven't attacked?"

Tang Ji shook his head and said, "That's unlikely. These people from Japan value their reputation extremely much! They're willing to accept defeat, but they won't accept such a humiliating defeat..."

Xiao Xiangqing raised an eyebrow when he heard Tang Ji say that.

The two waited again, and more than half an hour passed.

The scouts Tang Ji sent out have returned.

"Reporting to the general, we did not see any soldiers from Fusang. It's as if they vanished into thin air."

Tang Ji listened to the scout's words with disbelief: "What? It vanished into thin air? How could it possibly vanish into thin air?"

Xiao Xiangqing said with a smile, "They didn't run away, did they?"

Tang Ji waved his hand and said, "Impossible... Besides, there's only one road here. We either have to go into the mountains... or take down Xiao Zhan's city? But neither of those is very likely..."

Xiao Xiangqing suddenly thought of something and then said, "They weren't all wiped out, were they?"

The scout quickly said, "That shouldn't be the case. Apart from the landmines that killed some people, we haven't seen a single trace of blood along the way... So, I don't think it's very likely that they were killed by the explosions!"

Xiao Xiangqing fell silent: "What the heck... where are they? They just vanished into thin air."

As he spoke, Tang Ji gave Xiao Xiangqing a meaningful look.

Seeing Tang Ji looking at him like that, Xiao Xiangqing asked curiously, "General Tang Ji, why are you looking at me like that?"

Tang Ji said to Xiao Xiangqing, "Your Highness, have you ever considered that they might have a battle tactic that we don't know about... After all, people can't just disappear into thin air for no reason... So, it means that it was done by human hands!"

"Considering their previous confident pronouncements, do you think it's possible? They've already used special methods to breach Xiao Zhan's city..."

Xiao Xiangqing's expression turned grim as she listened to Tang Ji's words: "So, should we... fight or not?"

Tang Ji shook his head and said, "That's just my guess..."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Xiangqing shook her head firmly and said, "I think we should wait... I don't think they can win even if they use tricks and schemes..."

"Of course, if they really have this method... I'll accept the loss of this bet willingly... After all, if he can deal with Xiao Ce, then he certainly has the ability!"

"However, I don't think they have that capability... If they did, they wouldn't have asked you for over 50,000 shells yesterday..."

Tang Ji nodded at first, then expressed his doubt: "Your Highness, what you said makes some sense... but, according to you, where are they...?"

Xiao Xiangqing said, "Let's wait a little longer. We should get news soon."

Tang Ji nodded: "This is the only way now."

They're still wondering about it.

As for the people of Fusang, they have all been subdued and made obedient.

They had intended to rebel together, but they were instead imprisoned separately.

They use a dedicated person to guard them.

Two special forces soldiers guarding one prisoner is a perfectly safe operation.

Just as Xiao Ce was sleeping soundly, there was a knock on the door.

"Your Majesty!"

Xiao Ce woke up groggily, having been instructed not to wake him unless absolutely necessary.

Someone calling him must mean something's wrong.

When Xiao Ce woke up and opened the door, he saw that the person who came in was Xiao Zhan.

"What's wrong? Did Xiao Xiangqing call?"

Xiao Zhan waved his hand and said, "No...they don't even know that the people of Fusang are now in our hands..."

Xiao Ce asked in confusion, "Then why did you call me?"

Xiao Zhan didn't beat around the bush and said, "The person you had Xiao Tao send has arrived!"
