Peerless Female Bandit: Carry A Husband Home - C218
It wasn’t easy to wrap his injured hand around it, and when Qingmei came over with the medicine, Yue Ying didn’t say anything. She only silently took the medicine and consumed it mouthful after mouthful.
Tie Yi was completely unconscious, but he knew by reflex that he had to drink the medicine, so the medicine did not take much effort to finish feeding it.
Yue Ying wiped his mouth, then lightly kissed his wrinkled brows, “You can always make me soften my heart, forget it, I won’t bother with you, as long as Iron Army doesn’t go overboard, I’ll let them go, go to sleep in peace!”
It was unknown if it was because Tie Yi heard it, or what it was, but after Yue Ying finished speaking, his eyebrows relaxed, and he slept soundly.
Yue Ying smiled bitterly and went out to make the arrangements. She called the scouts she sent over and asked, “How far is Iron Army from us?”
“Less than thirty miles away, we’ve already set up camp.” The scout replied.
“Keep an eye on them. If they make any move, report to us immediately!”
“Yes sir!”
Yue Ying looked at the sky. The sky was already dark, there was no time here, it was only a matter of time.
The spring day was long and the night was short. It was around 6 or 7 in the afternoon when it was dark.
The newly selected little girl served up the food, Yue Ying said, “Go and invite Uncle Feng over.”
The little girl cleverly answered and left.
After a while, the Uncle Feng came over with a smile, “Miss, why are you looking for me?”
Yue Ying frowned and said, “I do not wish to fight head-on with the Iron Army, is there any way to minimize the casualties, so how can we not fall out?”
The Uncle Feng thought for a while and said, “Then we can only lay down the trap array. If Zhou Guizhi can’t break it, she will naturally retreat.”
Yue Ying thought about it. This was the only way to keep their balance. She did not want to fight. As long as she could maintain a stalemate and delay the birth until it was over, they could talk after the fight.
Thinking about it, Yue Ying did not beat around the bush, “Then how are our soldiers doing? Can you set up a trap array? ”
Uncle Feng laughed out loud, “The array is dead, but humans are alive, and the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. It’s not difficult to set up the array, but the difficult part is to adapt to the situation, and this array requires special coordination. The veterans of the village have practiced this array for more than 10 years, and we have already memorized it.
“That’s good.” Yue Ying’s face finally relaxed, and said, “Let’s set it up near the Li Jia Village, we’ll talk about it after Zhou Guizhi can break out of this array!”
Each team of eighty-eight people was divided into two groups, one with a spear, the other with a shield. The spear was three meters long, the shield was five inches thick, and it was intertwined with each other, endless. Even though there were thousands of soldiers and horses in the formation, they were immediately scattered like quicksand, being ambushed and killed one by one.
In this place, the Golden Lock Array was considered to be a remnant left behind by a god. It was a battle technique that his father had spent his entire life researching. Nine out of ten, if he found the right one, there would only be one death.
Just as Uncle Feng was about to go out, he stared at Yue Ying and said seriously, “Miss, do not be soft-hearted, there will only be one enemy on the battlefield, and no one can sympathize with you even if you are your own family!”
Yue Ying sighed, “I understand!”
Tie Yi slept for an entire day, and felt that his lips were cold. Opening his eyes, he saw that it was Yue Ying wiping his lips with a cotton swab.
“A Ying!” He opened his mouth and sucked in a breath of cold air.
“The wind is blowing and the skin is chapped. Don’t talk. We’ll talk again in a few days.” Yue Ying knew that he wanted to explain, but she didn’t want to hear it. Yue Ying’s brows slightly trembled. Indeed, she could be considered to have climbed up from such a steep cliff without any regard for her life.
Forget it, there’s no need to say anything else.
With a straight face, Yue Ying carried the hot porridge over and fed it to him one mouthful at a time. When Tie Yi raised his hand, the pain in his arm made him unable to lift it up anymore, making him grimace in pain.
Yue Ying helped him to sit up with a pained heart, and said while wiping away the blood on his lips with a cotton swab, “You really don’t want to live anymore. Climbing out from such a dangerous place, do you know that if you don’t pay attention, you’ll be smashed into smithereens!?”
“Uh (me), where is everyone (want),” Tie Yi muttered.
Yue Ying angrily scooped a spoonful of porridge and stuffed it into his mouth. Tie Yi’s cheeks were puffed up from eating, but his heart was feeling sweet.
Tie Yi looked pitifully at Yue Ying, and seeing that her face was still sullen, he knew that she still had grievances in her heart. He extended her hands out to pull her up, only then did he realise that her hands were wrapped up.
With the addition of the antidote in the porridge, Tie Yi fell asleep after eating it for a while.
Before the imperial food was even delivered, the situation of the Locked Yang Pass was already tense. The new army sent by the Emperor were incessantly urging Geng Yuedong to prepare and send out his own food, but she could only gather troops and horses, preparing to set off.
When the citizens of Locked Yang Pass heard that Geng Yuedong wanted to leave, they all went to the General’s House to petition, not allowing Geng Yuedong to leave, many of them asked, “General, if you leave, what should we do? What happens if the Chiron calls back? ”
Geng Yuedong, dressed in his military attire, cupped his fists and said to the people inside the fortress, “The imperial government has already sent the Prince An over. Everyone, rest assured, the imperial government will not ignore this.”
“General, you can’t leave! That Chiron is only afraid of your reputation, if we do not know of it, our home will not be preserved! ”
I, Geng Yuedong, will have to repay you all in the future. Everyone must believe that Prince An is the emperor’s blood brother, and that the Locked Yang Pass will definitely be more secure in his hands than in mine. The war in the southeast must not be delayed, and the emperor’s orders cannot be disobeyed. With that, he set off with the great army’s banner.
“Victory is guaranteed!” Amidst the shouts, they slowly moved towards the south.
It had not even been three days since she left, and before Prince An even arrived, smoke began to rise from the Western Whistle Outpost, and the Chiron and the Tung Hook’s allied army of 200,000 appeared 50 kilometers away from Locked Yang Pass.
The generals left behind in the Locked Yang Pass immediately sent out pigeons to call for reinforcements, causing all the people in the pass to flee towards the southeast. In their hearts, they only had one person they could rely on, no matter how dangerous it was, that person would still do his best to protect their family’s safety.
When the message from the pigeon reached the palace, the Emperor was watching it with the Noble Consort Guo. The soldiers outside the palace were exhausted.
