"Are we just going to wait? Yinzhou City is a big piece of meat, and with our forces currently weak, it's the perfect opportunity for us to take a bite. Capturing Yinzhou City would surely earn us great merit in front of Xiang Guo. If the Ninth Young Master has something to say, we can claim that Lian Yun's reinforcements are on their way, and we are forced to attack due to the situation."
The Black Tiger Camp, one of the Mountain Bandits incorporated by the Shu Cang Empire, existed everywhere. The authorities would usually conduct crackdowns, but due to the large number of people in the Black Tiger Camp, they could only resort to amnesty. After being incorporated, the Black Tiger Camp not only remained intact but actually grew stronger.
"Haha, I certainly won't let that pale-faced brat steal our brothers' glory. Send the order for everyone to prepare; we're heading to Yinzhou City for a good time," Hei Hu laughed heartily. He didn't want to wait either; he just hadn't been confident in taking Yinzhou City before. He wouldn't forget his identity—though he had gained strength after being incorporated, he was still constrained by others. Capturing Yinzhou City would bring unexpected rewards right now.
This time, Shu Cang's offensive aimed to boost troop morale by declaring that all spoils of war would belong to the army. If two armies collaborated, all spoils would be turned over and then distributed according to merit by the Empire. Naturally, Hei Hu was unwilling to share with others.
Under Hei Hu's command, the entire Black Tiger Camp marched towards Yinzhou City, while Cheng Shi's ten battalions began gathering outside the city.
"Big Brother, reports from behind say some nearby villagers are following us, wanting to see you take down Yin Qian. Should we...?" The messenger made a gesture across his throat.
"Haha, no need; let them follow along."
"Yin Qian old man, come out and die!" Hei Hu shouted from atop a towering Demon Beast at Yin Qian on the city wall.
"Hehe, I wondered who it was; turns out it's the leader of Black Tiger Mountain. I wonder when you started living off Shu Cang's leftovers?" Yin Qian stood atop the wall. The term "leftovers" was something Big Dog Head had told him he learned from a Literati; Yin Qian marveled at how Literati could insult without using foul language.
Hei Hu and his men exchanged glances at Yin Qian's words, unsure of their meaning, but judging by his expression, it certainly wasn't anything good.
"Yin Qian old man, my Xiang Guo appreciates your efforts in defending Yinzhou. If you open the gates, my Xiang Guo will surely grant you a high position."
"Oh? Who is your Xiang Guo? To offer me a high position? Could it be that Shu Cang has no ruler left and is here to ask me to become your lord?"
"Yin Qian old man, don't speak recklessly. The throne of Shu Cang is not something you can take."
"What can’t I do? At least I won’t be offering amnesty to those with blood on their hands." Mo Wen couldn't help but admire how adeptly Yin Qian insulted as a state commander.
"You speak nonsense! My big brother was inspired by the Emperor..."
"Oh? Inspired by the Emperor and then became a pet of the Emperor? Then inspired by your Xiang Guo and became a dog of Xiang Guo? In my opinion, you shouldn't even call yourselves Black Tiger Camp anymore; change your name to Black Dog Camp. Oh no, that's not right—dogs still have loyalty to their masters. You lot are even worse than dogs; how could you compare?"
The verbal battle between those on the city wall and those below continued for several hours, eventually devolving into a shouting match where one side took turns while only General Yin Qian stood alone.
"Brother Yin, I didn't expect your father still had such unexhibited strength!" Mo Wen couldn't help but exclaim, and Yin Jianren nodded in agreement.
