Chapter 552 Savior

What!

Everyone's eyes widened immediately.

"So what's the situation now?" He Yanxiu asked, "Where is General Yue now? Do we need reinforcements?"

"General Yue led everyone to break out of the encirclement. Now everyone is on the way back and will arrive in about two hours." The person who came to report the news said all in one breath and gasped heavily.

"Send someone to welcome them immediately!" said Dingguo.

"I'll go!" Lu Yuntao said, and walked out quickly, shouting as he walked, "All soldiers, listen to my orders!"

Outside, the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time responded in unison.

In just a cup of tea, Lu Yuntao gathered everyone and set off quickly to meet Lu Yunyue.

The rest were waiting in the government office.

Restless.

It was not until the sun set and large clouds appeared in the western sky that Lu Yuntao and Lu Yunyue returned to the government office.

At this time, Lu Yunyue was being carried on a stretcher. His armor had been completely destroyed, his body was covered in blood, and he had fainted.

The military doctor hurried over to see the patient, and ordered people to carry Lu Yunyue into the house, take off his armor, and check his injuries.

After being busy for half an hour, the military doctor finally stood up with a tired look on his face.

"How is Yue'er's injury?" Duke Dingguo asked in a hoarse voice.

"Don't worry, Duke. Although General Yue was seriously injured, they were all external injuries. There is no poison on the sword. You only need to clean the wound and carefully apply medicine."

The military doctor answered truthfully, "I have already treated General Yue's wounds and will go to boil some medicine now. General Yue has lost too much blood and it will take about an hour or two for him to wake up."

"Thank you." Duke Dingguo immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The military doctor bowed again and went to get a pen to write a prescription for herbal medicine.

When he put down his pen and told the medicine boy to prepare the medicine, Lu Yuntao pulled up his sleeve and said, "Go and show it to Deputy General He quickly."

"Is Lieutenant General He also injured?" He Yanxiu asked.

"Compared to Third Brother's injuries, they are even worse." Lu Yuntao's face was filled with regret. "I heard from the subordinates that the situation was critical, the scene was chaotic, and there was a lot of fighting. Deputy General He stayed by Third Brother's side the whole time in order to protect him."

"My third brother was besieged by the enemy at that time. Fortunately, Vice General He was there to block a lot of attacks for him. Otherwise, my third brother would have been..."

Died in the underworld.

Lu Yuntao did not say this out loud, but everyone present understood it, and their admiration for He Liangyi increased a little more.

Upon hearing this, the military doctor hurriedly followed Lu Yuntao to check on He Liangyi's injuries.

The injuries of He Liangyi and Lu Yunyue were somewhat similar, both were caused by swords and knives, but He Liangyi suffered a heavy blow, with multiple fractures on his ribs and even a horrific wound on his face.

He Liangyi's injuries were much more serious than Lu Yunyue's.

Knowing He Liangyi's status in the entire army and even in the hearts of the Lu family, the military doctor did not dare to be negligent at this time and tried his best to treat He Liangyi.

Duke Dingguo, He Yanxiu and others stayed by Lu Yunyue's bedside.

About an hour later, Lu Yunyue opened his eyes, but because of his weak body, he could not utter a word.

"Take a good rest for now. Your eldest brother is almost recovered. Leave the other matters to your eldest and second brothers. You can just relax." Dingguo said impartially.

Hearing his father say this, Lu Yunyue nodded with difficulty and closed his eyes again.

When Lu Yunyue woke up, the military doctor hurriedly brought him some cooked medicine.

In order not to disturb Lu Yunyue's rest, Duke Dingguo led the others to the main hall first.

"Have you found out the reason why Yue'er was ambushed this time?" asked Duke Dingguo.

"I have already asked clearly." Lu Yuntao replied, "Originally, my third brother won a great victory in this battle, and the whole army was excited. They were all very happy on their way back, but when they passed by here, they were ambushed by the Xijinyun Kingdom."

Lu Yuntao pointed to the map and said to everyone, "There are cliffs on both sides of this place. Before leaving here, my third brother had sent people to check the terrain, but they didn't find anything wrong, so he led the army through here. As a result, when they were halfway through, many huge rocks and feather arrows fell on both sides of the cliff..."

"Countless soldiers were killed and wounded. When they finally managed to escape from the canyon, they were blocked by the Xijinyun army, and a fight broke out between the two sides."

"My third uncle has already sent people to investigate. He was very careful, but he was still ambushed by the Xijinyun Kingdom." He Yanxiu frowned, "Is there something wrong with this?"

"I have just discussed this with my eldest brother, and all the people in the army have been carefully screened, and there is nothing unusual. After thinking about it, I think that my third brother has just launched an ambush here in Yeshan County. The Xijinyun Kingdom probably guessed that my third brother would pass by here when he returned, so he led his elite troops to arrive here early," Lu Yuntao explained.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This is also possible.

He Yanxiu nodded slightly.

"During this period of time, Xijinyun Kingdom has suffered repeated setbacks in various places. Originally, Xijinyun Kingdom's morale was low. I'm afraid that after this time, it will be refreshed." Lu Yuncheng gritted his teeth, "And the morale of our soldiers will probably be affected as well."

"Yes, I will be affected, but at the same time I will be angry and indignant." Ding Guo said, "We have been fighting for nearly two months with this tactic of causing trouble everywhere. It's time for a real big fight."

"Father means..."

Lu Yuntao and Lu Yuncheng both looked at Duke Dingguo.

Even Qin Peiyou and He Yanxiu's eyes darkened.

"According to the latest intelligence, Xijinyun and Tianyun are gathering their forces here, and they seem to be planning to attack Taoyuan County. At this time, Zhuchuan County is not favored by Xijinyun because of its relatively poor land and poor people. The garrison here is relatively weak."

Duke Dingguo pointed to the situation marked on the map and continued, "If we can launch a night attack and capture Zhuchuan County in one fell swoop, we can tear a big hole in the already connected forces of Xijinyun. Moreover, Zhuchuan County has a rugged terrain and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. After we capture Zhuchuan County, we can use it as a base to spread to both sides and drive the military forces of Xijinyun Kingdom here."

When everyone saw the place Duke Dingguo pointed to, their eyes lit up.

Especially Qin Peiyou, "Duke Dingguo's plan is very good, but when does Duke Dingguo think it is best to attack Zhuchuan County?"

"Tonight." Duke Dingguo answered loudly.

tonight?

Everyone was stunned, but they immediately understood Duke Dingguo's intention.

Judging from the current situation, the Western Jinyun Kingdom must think that they are busy counting casualties and comforting the aftermath, but for the generals and soldiers of the Great Qin Kingdom at this time, they are united in hatred of the enemy and are full of passion.

This is the best time to attack the city!
