Chapter 142: No matter how close you are, it is better to be close to others for their own benefit
"Of course, Lame Man, it feels like a long time since we last met. Now even the brave men listen to you." During the march, Zhang Wei rode his horse to the Lame Man and said sarcastically.
"He is not as powerful as Lord Zhang. On the one hand, he is a popular minister of the Holy Light Kingdom, and on the other hand, he has his own private army." The lame man sarcastically said that Zhang Wei was two-faced. On the surface, he was loyal to the kingdom, but secretly he was the only one who led the monster army to attack the kingdom's territory.
"It's the same with you. I'm curious about how Mr. Cripple convinced the brave man." Zhang Wei asked the Cripple curiously.
"It's nothing. Can there be any benefit from being closer?" The lame man said this, and when he saw Omiya Taishi calling him, he quickly rode his horse away from Zhang Wei and went to see Omiya Taishi.
"What did he tell you?" Omiya Yasushi asked the lame man.
"Nothing. He asked me if I always liked to go against him." The lame man lied with his eyes open without blinking.
"Old acquaintance?" Omiya Yasushi was puzzled.
"Well, old acquaintance. He always wanted to kill me, but he never succeeded." The lame man spoke as if he and Zhang Wei had a blood feud.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Omiya Yasushi told the lame man not to worry, he would protect the lame man's safety.
"Thank you, sir." The lame man saluted Omiya Yasushi.
Zhang Wei looked at the lame man who was groveling to Omiya Taishi not far away, and curled his lips without saying a word. He had not yet settled his feud with the lame man, but at least it had not reached the point of a fight to the death.
When there were still 2.5 days left to reach Lionheart Castle, Zhang Wei proposed to keep the troops stationed there and wait for logistical supplies.
"There are less than two and a half days' worth of food left. We can't move on and have to wait for supplies." Zhang Wei explained calmly in response to Omiya Yasushi's questioning.
"That's just perfect. We will have supplies when we reach Lionheart Castle. Now there is endless land and no one is around. What if the enemy takes the opportunity to escape?" Omiya Yasushi still couldn't understand why Zhang Wei stopped the march. He even suspected that Zhang Wei was deliberately delaying the military plan.
Zhang Wei ignored Omiya Yasushi and tilted his head to look at the knights behind Omiya Yasushi. He asked, "I heard that knights also study military science. Do you want to explain this to your leader?"
"He is not our leader." A knight was dissatisfied with Zhang Wei for finding a leader for him casually, but he still explained to Omiya Yasushi that Zhang Wei's behavior was not wrong, because as the commander-in-chief of an army, Zhang Wei must consider the difficulties that may arise if he cannot get supplies when he arrives at Lionheart Castle.
"Do you think Lionheart Fort will be captured by the defeated army, or do you think the army of Lionheart Fort is no longer loyal to the king?" Omiya Yasushi seemed a little unconvinced.
When the knight heard Omiya Yasushi say this, he curled his lips, turned around and left. Seeing this, the other knights also left.
"If you think our behavior is inappropriate, you can report it to the King."
"Don't worry, I will." Omiya Yasushi threatened.
"Whatever you want. I think the brave man is quite powerful. Why should we ordinary people be a burden? It would be better for us to go and destroy the enemy on our own and leave a good reputation for generations to come?" Zhang Wei ridiculed Omiya Yasushi for not daring to face the enemy directly.
When Omiya Yasushi was about to show off his strength, the lame man coughed twice at the right time. Omiya Yasushi then realized that he was almost provoked.
Zhang Wei saw that Omiya Yasushi had calmed down, so he sneered and said, "Master Warrior has found a good think tank."
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he left Omiya Yasushi and the cripple behind and left.
After Zhang Wei left, Omiya Taishi thanked the cripple: "Thank you, I almost fell into your trap."
"Sir, a little impatience can ruin a great plan. If you really want to leave today, I have a plan."
"You said."
"I heard that Zhang Wei is very lustful and can't walk when he sees a woman. Why don't we let the female hero come forward?"
"Nonsense!" Omiya Taishi was immediately furious. He continued, "Yuko is my girlfriend, how could I let her do such a thing!"
The lame man thought to himself: "Hammer's girlfriend, she didn't even sign her hand."
However, the cripple was also able to bend and stretch. He pretended to be extremely terrified and said: "Why do you say that, sir? Isn't the Archer a..."
The lame man is reminding Omiya Yasushi that the Archer Hero is also a woman.
Omiya Taishi slapped his forehead hard and said awkwardly, "It's my fault. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gotten mad at you. I'll do it right away."
"It's not your fault, it's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly." The lame man still kept a low profile.
After Omiya Taishi left, the cripple looked at his back with a sneer, thinking: "When that bastard Zhang Wei takes both of you female warriors into his account, that's when I'll settle the score with you."
"Lame, what's up?" The Fire Hero saw the Lame man's back and greeted him from afar.
"Oh, it's the Fire Hero..." When the lame man turned around and looked at the Fire Hero, a flattering smile appeared on his face. He hurriedly trotted forward to flatter the Fire Hero.

"I don't want to. Why don't you let your woman go?" The Bow Hero Toni Guzman became angry when she heard Omiya Yasushi's request.
Everyone knew Zhang Wei's reputation for lust. If she went to Zhang Wei alone, once the news got out, she would no longer have a good reputation! Not to mention that Omiya Yasushi was really asking her to seduce Zhang Wei.
"Well, doesn't she have a boyfriend? I thought you didn't..." Omiya Yasushi's words were weak.
"Get out!" Tony, the Archer Hero, picked up the sundries in the tent and threw them at Omiya Yasushi.
Omiya Yasushi fled out of the tent in a panic and happened to meet the returning Holy Hero Kase Yuko.
"What's going on?" Kase Yuko asked in confusion.
"It's okay, it's okay, come with me for a walk." Omiya Yasushi didn't want to let Kase Yuko go in. First, he was afraid that Kase Yuko would suffer for him, and second, he was afraid that Kase Yuko would know what he had done and would vent her anger on him.
While Yuko Kase was hesitating, there was a sound of something being smashed in the tent, and the sound of Toni crying loudly because she felt humiliated.
When Omiya Yasushi heard the crying and saw Kase Yuko looking at him with suspicion, he turned around and left in embarrassment.
Yuko Kase had no choice but to enter the tent to check the situation.
……
……
……
"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter for you." After listening to Toni's crying, Kase Yuko's face turned slightly pale. She didn't expect that Omiya Yasushi would choose to let his companion sell her body for the sake of merit.
Toni just kept crying and didn't say anything.
"I will take care of it, don't worry." Kase Yuko hugged Toni in her arms and continued to comfort her.
……
……
……
Midnight, outside Zhang Wei's tent.
"Sir, someone wants to see you." The guard at the door knew Kase Yuko, but at this time and place, the guard did not dare to reveal Kase Yuko's identity.
"Who is it? I don't see you." Zhang Wei was too lazy to get out of bed.
"Sir, would you like to come out and take a look?" Seeing that Kase Yuko refused to leave, the guard at the door could only bite the bullet and continue to pass on the message...
