Chapter 22

War through the eyes of women

"Husband... Madam!"

A rough voice full of disbelief sounded in my ears. Looking in the direction of the voice, I saw a familiar-looking burly man wearing the armor of a flag master.

After thinking for a while, Liu Buqi recognized that this flag owner was the little soldier who was framed during Wang Sheng's search of the clinic that day. He was also a soldier under Yue Lingxi when he was the flag owner, and now he is also the flag owner.

He nodded gently, "Xiao Junzi!"

Xiao Junzi obviously didn't expect that Liu Buqi still remembered this rough man. He was so excited that he slapped the shoulder of the person next to him and started shouting in a hoarse voice!

"Everyone in front, make way. General Yue's wife is here!" The only person in the entire Youzhou who can be called General Yue is probably Yue Lingxi, the commander-in-chief of Youzhou!

After the soldiers passed the news from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, the Yanjing cavalry in front of the city gate slowly opened up a passage.

Liu Buqi walked quickly along the passage and soon felt the fanatical gazes of the surrounding cavalry. If he was a veteran in the army, he would naturally understand that this was the soldiers' support for him.

A general's hundreds of battles bring honor to his family! Furthermore, this was Liu Buqi, the Minister of Commerce, who was already very well-known in Yanjing!

Wang Changling, who was leading the 10,000 cavalrymen up ahead, also rushed over upon hearing the news. "Madam, it's hard to defend against stray arrows and hidden arrows in a city defense battle. What brought you here?"

"General Wang, all the commanders have come to the front line of Zhenbei Pass, why can't I come?" Liu Buqi's question left Wang Changling speechless!

It would be fine for others, but Liu Buqi is Yue Lingxi's wife after all, and a typical civil servant. Just like Bai Tuo is currently in charge of the Guan Chinese Medicine Clinic, and Zhu Changcai is helping to coordinate supplies in Nancheng.

When facing a war, officers and generals are always with the soldiers! This is an unwritten rule unique to Youzhou, and it is also a battlefield rule established through countless bloody battles over the years!

We can't say that Liu Buqi can't come to the battlefield because she is the commander-in-chief's wife! What will these soldiers and the civilians who are helping the wounded think?

Taking advantage of Wang Changling's distraction, Liu Buqi walked past him and headed towards the city wall.

Wang Changling, unable to stop them but unable to abandon his post, whipped them to the ground with his horsewhip. He cast a murderous glare at the young soldier standing beside him and said with gritted teeth, "Go and protect the lady. If even a hair of hers falls, you will be beheaded!"

The little soldier, who was already confused, was so scared that he quickly dismounted, picked up a shield and chased after Liu Buqi!

As Liu Buqi followed the civilians up the city wall, he was shocked by what he saw! Even the most realistic movies in his dreams couldn't even remotely capture the horrors of ancient battlefields!

In the cold winter, densely packed grassland people, with their upper bodies bare, used ladders to attack the walls of Zhenbei Pass!

There were dead bodies everywhere inside and outside the city. The smell of blood and the screams of the injured people that rushed into the nose were extremely creepy!

Liu Buqi, who was already very pale, felt his stomach churning! Although he had seen people killed by swords in this era, and even killed people with knives in the Yanjing Medical Clinic, compared with the brutality of the battlefield, it was nothing!

Enduring the discomfort, Liu Buqi climbed up to the city gate tower under the protection of Xiao Junzi's shield. The wide view here allowed him to have a panoramic view of the entire battlefield, and it was also the undisputed command center of the garrison general Gao Yi!

Orders to dispatch personnel and adjust the city defense strategy were issued from here. The soldiers on the side kept waving flags of various colors according to the orders, sending instructions to the various city defense troops!

The entire Zhenbei Pass was impregnable under Gao Yi's methodical command! If it weren't for the reminder from the people beside him, he, who was so focused on the battlefield situation, who knows how long it would have taken him to notice the presence of a woman here!

Instead of the fury or alienation Liu Buqi had imagined, Gao Yi, with a calm expression, bowed and instructed his men to let her into the command center. "Madam, please wait a moment. Once this battle is over, I will apologize to you!"

After saying that, he continued to devote himself to commanding the battle. Liu Buqi could clearly feel that Gao Yi had no ill intentions or intentions of complaining.

After searching around quietly for a while, he still didn't see Yue Lingxi. This was already the front line, and Liu Buqi felt nervous!

Gao Yi, who had taken the time to glance over, said respectfully during a break in his command, "The commander-in-chief has personally led 10,000 cavalry out of the city early, awaiting the opportunity to counterattack. Madam, don't worry too much!"

Liu Buqi's wait did not last too long. After the grassland siege, which had lasted for nearly an hour without any results, the morale of the troops began to gradually fade.

With the sound of an eagle whistle that pierced the sky, the large number of grassland warriors attacking the city retreated like a tide! The day's attack and defense was basically over.

But Liu Buqi clearly saw that when the eagle whistle sounded, at Gao Yi's signal, the dry firewood and cow dung piled on the side were ignited, emitting a blazing smoke!

As the smoke rose, a black line quickly appeared on the distant horizon, and the retreating grassland siege soldiers no longer had the orderliness of their initial retreat.

In the central army of the grassland, a team of wolf riders swarmed out and met the black line, buying some time for their retreating siege soldiers!

The two torrents finally collided! Liu Buqi recognized Yue Lingxi's figure at a glance. He was the spearhead of the black-armored cavalry!

As sabers flew up and down, countless passionate men shed their blood on the battlefield. The Yanjing Iron Cavalry was like an arrow shot from a bow, quickly piercing through the blockade of the Prairie Wolf Cavalry, and in a blink of an eye they were standing between the Prairie Central Army and the retreating Prairie soldiers!

With Gao Yi's urgent shout, the gate of Zhenbei Pass slowly opened, and Wang Changling led the cavalry that had been ready to rush out!

The little soldier who had been protecting Liu Buqi all along raised his shield with both hands, baring his teeth and claws and yelling, "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

His shouts of killing merged with the sudden frenzy that erupted throughout the city, resounding throughout the heavens and earth! It made every Yanjing cavalryman outside the city even more excited!

In a flash of lightning, two black feathered arrows pierced the dark mass of the retreating grassland army! This aroused even more enthusiasm among the people on the city wall.

To be honest, Liu Buqi found it difficult to understand this enthusiasm! In just one day, countless grassland people and Taiyue people fell forever at the foot of Zhenbei Pass in the mutual attacks!

What men see as victory, women think of as sorrow and separation!

The glory that men pursue is the uncertainty of life and death that women endure!

Yue Lingxi's dominance on the battlefield makes Liu Buqi worried!

Especially the knife and arrow that slashed at him right in front of her! Liu Buqi always couldn't bear to watch and was afraid...

Finally, the figure rushed out of the crowd without any danger and appeared at the foot of Zhenbei Pass covered in blood!
