Medical doctor Su Wan transmigrated to the Great Jin Dynasty. She initially thought she was in for a typical palace maid/harem drama, but soon she was married off as a bride to bring good luck by h...
Wei Jingzhuo mounted his warhorse and said to Zhao Xiyue, "I will do my best."
Su Wan encouraged Wei Jingzhuo, saying, "Ah Jin, I believe in you. Neither Wei Shao nor Chu Yi can be your match. I'll wait here for my unparalleled husband to return in triumph."
She said the nice things, but she was incredibly nervous inside.
Wei Jingzhuo was tasked with rescuing General Zhao Xian, who was besieged by tens of thousands of Southern Chu troops, with only two thousand cavalrymen. His opponent was the cunning Chu Yi. This was an extremely difficult task.
But at this time, you can say anything, just don't say anything discouraging.
Wei Jingzhuo nodded, pulled Lin Qingfeng aside and whispered a few words of advice, then waved to Su Wan and Zhao Xiyue before leading his troops away.
Su Wan stood on the western city wall, watching Wei Jingzhuo lead two thousand cavalrymen into the western darkness, before calling Lin Qingfeng over and asking, "What did A-Jin say to you just now? It was so mysterious."
Lin Qingfeng hesitated, stammering without answering. Su Wan said, "I am your mistress, aren't I?"
Lin Qingfeng looked around and, seeing no one nearby, whispered, "My lord said that Xiping Pass probably won't hold out until he returns. If the city falls, he wants me to lead the guards to escort my wife, her brother, and Miss Zhao out of the city."
Su Wan smiled bitterly, "Even if we escape, where can we escape to? Holding on is the most important thing."
Xiping Pass is now the only place to land in the vast ocean; to leave means death. Only by holding Xiping Pass can there be any hope of survival.
The soldiers have been able to fight against 100,000 enemy troops until now thanks to Wei Jingzhuo's command. Now that Wei Jingzhuo has left, Wei Shao's scouts will surely find out. If nothing unexpected happens, Wei Shao will attack at dawn.
She knows nothing about military affairs, yet this time she surprisingly predicted half of it correctly.
Wei Shaojun indeed launched an attack the next day, and won half the battle.
Half the mistake was the timing. Wei Shaojun didn't choose the morning, but instead began assembling his troops the following afternoon.
The Dragon Cannon was incredibly heavy and moved very slowly, but it finally joined the battle.
