Queen Flower - Chapter 228

The army of 30,000 people walked back and passed a wide river when Yan Zhan waved his hand and stopped his advance.

This is the only way to go back to Liupan Mountain. There are mountains and forests on one side and rivers on the other. In the direction they are heading, there seems to be a faint sound in the wind. The sound of the water was indistinguishable.

“Third son, Li Qiang, go check it out.” Yan Zhan restrained his horse and looked ahead, frowning.

The two of them obeyed the order and rushed out immediately. Their footsteps were brisk and agile, and they were silent. They were indeed good skills for scouts.

Jiang Lan carefully distinguished the sound coming from the wind, but couldn’t hear it.

“What happened?” Jiang Lan asked, she had a bad feeling just now.

Yan Zhan didn’t reply immediately, and after a while he said, “There are troops stationed ahead, many people.” He looked back at her, he was wrong this time, and he shouldn’t have brought her out. In the battlefield of life and death, the situation is changing rapidly, and it is difficult to guarantee the safety of anyone. How could he bring her back with a soft heart?

Jiang Lan looked at Yan Zhan’s slightly remorseful eyes, and comforted: “Don’t worry about me, I’m not a weak woman, master, you have trained me for so long, and you should see the results.”

Yan Zhan turned his head, “I’m not your master, don’t talk nonsense.”

After a while, the third son, Li Qiang, invited him back, “General Yan, there is a large army of King Ding set up in front of us. It is estimated that there are as many as 100,000 people, and they will stop us on our way back.” The third son reported the military situation with a nervous expression.

It was actually King Ding, not King Hui.

“Really King Ding?” Jiang Lan asked.

Li Qiang nodded, “It’s the banner of King Ding, yes.”

Yan Zhan’s expression became serious. If he guessed correctly, the thousands of people killed just now were the advance troops of King Ding, and the arrival of this army was silent. The purpose was to encircle and suppress Liupan Mountain, so the advance army encountered Ke Lao Er’s grain-requisition troops. In order to prevent the leakage of information, they would kill them.

Since they know them, they naturally know their side. Now that they have set up camp again openly and aboveboard, it means that they will never let them go. Maybe they were planning to attack, but they found the trail prematurely.

I just don’t know if King Hui will also be involved?

He had just won the battle, but now he is facing the danger of being completely outflanked. A conservative estimate is that 100,000 enemy troops are fighting against 30,000 troops. And the terrain here is very unfavorable, there is a big river next to it, and there is only one way to retreat. Then it will go deep into the hinterland of King Hui, and the result is not easy to say, so it seems that there is almost no chance of winning.

Yan Zhan estimated the situation in his heart, and felt that the situation was serious, since the enemy was prepared to come. The meeting is bound to be a fierce battle, which is unavoidable. In addition, it is necessary to try to notify Liupanshan to avoid being attacked again.

“Li Qiang, bring a team of troops to continue to investigate.” He looked back and said to Jiang Lan: “I’ll give you two thousand elite soldiers. You take the troops and immediately withdraw, bypass the river and go back to Liupanshan to report the news, and save your strength in the middle. You cannot participate. any fight.”

Jiang Lan shook his head sharply, “It’s too late to run back to move the rescue troops. When I get to Liupanshan, you guys will have finished fighting, and you won’t be able to get back to Liupanshan if you take a detour like this… No. You are telling me to escape.” She then responded. Come here, where is the news. It was clear that she was going to be taken away first. With only less than 30,000 troops, she had to take away 2,000 elite soldiers. Wouldn’t that make Yan Zhan die?

Jiang Lan firmly opposed, “Go with your elite soldiers, I’ll stay, don’t worry, I won’t die, I’ll be resurrected when I die.” Thinking about it is the best idea, she can’t die anyway, so she should stay next fight.

“What nonsense, how dare you openly disobey the military order on the battlefield and treat it as a military law.” Yan Zhan squeezed her hand fiercely and squeezed her hand to the point of pain. He knew that she would not die, but if she really did If you die, you may just leave here and go back to your own world. Maybe you will still be resurrected in this world, but where you will appear, no one knows. Maybe you will never see it again in this life. What is the difference between this and death? Rather than that, he might as well go and die in battle, but who said he would die in battle, no one knows the result if he doesn’t fight.

He stretched out his hand and caressed her cheek, his rough and dark palms made her face even brighter like a lotus, he rubbed the tender and creamy skin, and his fingers traced her beautiful petal-like lips, outlining the delicate The line of his lips, the thick calluses on his fingertips even made her feel a little pain, and his dark gray eyes were as dark as the night sky and as deep as the sea.

As a military general, there will be a day when the body will be wrapped in horse leather. He has always had this understanding, so he never fears, never backs down, but now he still has some regrets.

Yan Zhan withdrew his hand, “Listen now, Jiang Lan will lead 2,000 people back to Liupanshan to report the news.” He ordered everyone from Kejia Village, and the rest of the elite soldiers formed a strong team, “Give it to me. Go, whoever disobeys the order will be dealt with by military law.”

Jiang Lan led the army to stand outside the team, unwilling to leave. At this time, Li Qiang, who went out to investigate the situation, also turned around and returned, “General, they are here.”

Yan Zhan stood firmly in front of the team, full of pride, “Soldiers, today we have no way to retreat, it is better to let go and fight, die in the right place, and fight for Liupan Mountain.”

“The general is right.” The morale was unprecedentedly high, “It’s over after death! Fight for Liupan Mountain.”

“Fight for Liupanshan…”

Jiang Lan’s eyes were a little wet, and Mr. Ke said, “Let’s go back to rescue the soldiers. It’s too late. I know there is a way to go, although we have to take a detour.”

“Okay, let’s go.” Jiang Lan rode away on a horse, and before she had gone far, there was the sound of the earth-shattering beating drums behind her, beating on her heart like a dull thunder.

No, it’s too late to go back now, it’s too late.

Jiang Lan grabbed the horse’s head, “Second Ke, if we don’t go back to Liupan Mountain, is there a way to go around behind them?”

Ke Lao Er shook his head, “There is no road, it is all mountains.”

“Then let’s climb the mountain, can we?” Jiang Lan was very anxious.

“Yes, I know there is a mountain road, yes.” A voice suddenly appeared in the team, “I tried the mountain, I used to chop wood and walk, but I can’t ride a horse.”

“Okay, get off the horse, take all the flags in your hands, and let’s go over the mountain.” Jiang Lan jumped off the horse, let the man lead the way, and went straight to the mountain.

At this critical moment, she can’t escape alone. Since it’s a last-ditch battle, let her learn Han Xin’s tactics. If she doesn’t learn it, she will die.

She is a useless person. She is greedy for life and fears death on weekdays, but when she is about to die, she is not afraid anymore.
