Genshin Impact: I, the Winter's Executor, am forced to work.

"put!"

He had already told his soldiers to fire as soon as the enemy entered his firing range.

As for the five or six hundred people who are still fleeing?

"hehe."

Sometimes, the raincoat doesn't just shield you from the rain, but also from the disheveled face of a wanderer.

Who would have thought that this scene of defeat was also staged for others to see?

In the plan, they were the pieces that were meant to be sacrificed.

"Kill the general first, then drive them east. Oh, and by the way, any surviving ronin too... understand?"

Qin Ye patted D'Artagnan on the shoulder, dropped the feather fan and the four-wheeled cart, leaped up the mountaintop in a few steps, and disappeared.

"Hey, my partner really understands me. I was just feeling like I didn't get enough of a good fight earlier." The young master placed his hand on the side of his neck and gently twisted it.

No wonder I thought this group's morale was so low; it turns out it was the group of ronin samurai that I had just rallied.

"..."

So, was there an underlying meaning behind having me lead the team—or rather, suppressing their fear?

Kamo Saburo-kun suddenly realized.

Stepping Sand

Kujo Sara slid down the cliff and saw Coral Palace Heart Sea lying unconscious on the ground.

"Um..."

She frowned, and to prevent a sneak attack, she drew her sword from her waist and slashed down.

The woman on the ground suddenly sprang up, kicking Sara's wrist with a somersault, and after a few tumbles, she stood steadily in the distance.

"I never imagined the priestess of the Coral Palace possessed such skill..."

The Tengu General swallowed his words back. The 'shrine maiden' in front of him wiped the smudged makeup off her face, and two fluffy ears stood up from the pink hair on her head.

"General Kujo Sara probably doesn't know..."

His disguise was completely torn off, revealing his eight-pack abs, and his tail also emerged from under his military uniform.

Goro carefully groomed the fur on his head, waved it in front of his eyes to make sure there were no major problems, breathed a sigh of relief, and then revealed a smug smile.

"A dog's tail can't just droop on the ground and stay still forever."

"We actually fell for that trick..."

Saro's face showed anger.

Why is this little dog so skilled at dressing up as a woman?

The sounds of battle could be heard coming from the mountain behind them.

"Just as Brother Twelve predicted, ordinary woodpecker tactics will not fool a battle-hardened general."

[Note: The woodpecker tactic imitates the woodpecker's strategy of "tapping the back of the tree to catch insects, and then waiting for the insects to come out from the front of the tree" (i.e., feinting while waiting for the insects to pounce)]

Goro, holding his bow in one hand, ran quickly and kicked straight at Sara's face.

But the other party seized the opportunity to grab his ankle, spinning the little dog general in the air before slamming him to the ground.

"So you, my general, disguised yourself as a living goddess priestess to deliberately let me discover your whereabouts, and the person I just shot was one of your subordinates in disguise?"

Goro didn't reply. Instead, he supported himself with his hands on the ground, rotated his legs, and took the opportunity to pull his feet out before launching another attack.

"Surrender, General Kujo Sara!"

General Tengu took a deep breath; the fact that she had fallen into the trap clearly did not shake her in the slightest.

"You've probably misunderstood something."

Goro unleashed a barrage of punches like a whirlwind, but Sara caught them with her palms, unable to harm her in the slightest.

With a swift and powerful kick to Goro's abdomen, the blow was both accurate and ruthless, sending the somewhat thin body flying off the ground.

Sara picked up the sword beside her, held it in her hand, and confirmed that it was still incredibly sharp.

She held the knife across her chest, and black wings emerged from behind her: "A decapitation operation like this is impossible for someone of your skill level to succeed."

"How about adding me to the mix? The Tengu General of the Shogunate Army?"

Even before they could see anyone, their hearty laughter reached their ears.

The voice above the user's head, resembling a reminder, signifies the user's confidence in the power of this weapon.

"You'd better catch this, for this is the power to annihilate the 'Sea Mountain'!"

The two greatswords, imbued with unparalleled force, slammed down on Sara.

The ground was shattered into countless cracks by a single blow.

As the sandstorm receded, the general, who had retreated some distance, saw the familiar Liyue attire and clenched his fist.

"You are... the captain of the Death Star? You should think carefully about the consequences of going to war with the Shogunate army."

Beidou slung the greatsword over his shoulder and laughed heartily.

"Ha! I never expected that the mighty Admiral Kujo would know a mere mercenary like me. Oh well, which side you join depends on your pay."

“The Shogunate army can offer you higher rewards…” Sara understood that it was not advisable to add more opponents at this moment.

But the captain in front of her didn't seem to have any intention of giving her a chance to continue.

"I'm just afraid that you might..."

Without hesitation, Beidou leaped up and slashed with his greatsword.

"I really can't come up with it!"

-

(Move forward a bit in time)

The Death Star, in the southern waters of Nashiina.

"Boss, what promises has Qin Ye made to you this time? It's one thing to help him transport supplies to the resistance, but now he's even getting involved in the war?"

The bewildered Qian Yan'er took the slip of paper from Beidou's hand.

"Northern Bank...cheque?"

She carefully counted the digits on it.

One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand...

"Holy crap! One hundred million Mora??? I get it, boss lady, even if it costs me my life, I'll help you earn this money! But... he's not just bluffing with empty promises, is he?"

Beidou snatched the check back in an annoyed manner and carefully checked it for any damage.

She gently punched the accountant in the chest.

"Are you kidding? Even if he didn't give me that much money, we're still good brothers, why wouldn't I help him?"

The boss pointed to the signature on the back of the check.

Dionysus, the twelfth executor of the Fools.

Eleventh Seat: [Prince] Dadalia.

Third seat: [Girl] Columbia.

"Could they possibly deny this signature? The Northern Bank values ​​its reputation highly. The presence of these three names together is probably second only to the signature of their chief executive or the queen herself."

With this number, let alone me, even if Ningguang were on my ship right now, she would probably have to wear my crew's clothes and come with me to meet the Shogunate army.

She turned to look at the girl dressed in pirate attire, her originally smooth pink hair now completely wrapped in a headscarf, standing politely in place.

“Little girl from Coral Palace, you’ll be heading to the front lines to command the troops soon. Do you need me to come along? Consider it an extra service on top of the money I’m paying.”

Xin Hai shook his head and chuckled softly.

"Big Sister Beidou, don't overwork yourself. You and your crew are the most important force in this battle."

The Death Star sailed on the sea, gradually approaching the Shogunate army's supply ships.

"Hey..."

The leader sighed, her gaze sharpening again. Pointing her greatsword forward, she shouted the order: "Brothers, board the ship!"

Chapter 100 I am a civil servant and not skilled in martial arts.

Beidou wiped the rain off his face, but his laughter continued.

"Admiral Kujo Sara, what's the quality of those three bastards on your transport ship... oh wait, no."

The leader seemed to realize that her words were somewhat inappropriate, and quickly corrected herself: "The elites on your ship are quite strong, but my brothers and I have seen a lot of battles, and they are indeed no match for us in naval warfare."

She gripped the greatsword with one hand, the tip pointing at Kujo Sara.

General Tengu ignored the provocation and instead frowned, lost in thought.

Since even the captain of the Death Star is here, her crew will definitely be present as well. They will take the supplies from the supply ship and then obediently stand still to inspect the goods.

the answer is negative.

Moreover, it is said that Coral Palace Heart Sea is also a master strategist, and seeing him today, I can confirm that he is indeed a figure worthy of being ranked among the top in my Inazuma.

Where will she be?

Goro, standing to the side, seemed to have no intention of giving Tengu General a chance to think, and launched another swift attack.

But this time, Sara only focused on defending and had no intention of retaliating.

The team I sent to attack the main camp has probably already been ambushed... and what the captain said is most likely true, since the enemy does have a real advantage in naval warfare.

Unexpectedly, while proceeding steadily, we overlooked the most important point...

No, they deliberately feigned weakness to let me wipe them out in one fell swoop.

The people of Haizhi Island are in a hurry, with a shortage of supplies and troops. They simply cannot sustain a prolonged war. Precisely because of this, they are willing to take any risk, and any sacrifice is more worthwhile than a protracted war.
