On the border, Xi Rong led the female soldiers to resist the attack of the Ge State army.
Two days ago, she received the news that Xiao Hanzheng defeated the Ge Kingdom's army and poisoned Yelu Donghe into a coma.
Therefore, it is understood that the reason why the Ge State army charged so fiercely today was probably due to the influence of this incident.
After the defeat on another front, the Ge Kingdom had to make up for it on the front border battlefield here.
In addition to the female soldiers she brought with her, there was also the army led by Xiao Yuanshi before, who united together to fight hard.
But the opponent's offensive was too strong, and they were even surrounded by the enemy and could hardly hold on.
Xi Rong was leading a group of female soldiers to break through when suddenly a volley of arrows shot at her from behind.
Yue Lu, who was beside her, saw this and instinctively hugged her, and the arrow hit him.
He said weakly in Xi Rong's ear: "Rongrong, if I die, you must not forget me."
Xi Rong didn't expect Yue Lu to take the blame for her. "Why are you so stupid?"
Yue Lu laughed at himself with a pale face, "Yeah, I also think I'm pretty stupid, but who made me like you?"
He is the most selfish person. He originally relied on Xi Rong mainly because of her identity and the hope that she could help him get revenge.
She did not disappoint his hopes and helped him defeat that disgusting family and turned them into the poor civilians they despised the most.
But he was unable to extricate himself, and his heart was left on her.
He hugged Xi Rong with all his strength, "Rongrong, you must live well, don't let my death be in vain."
After saying that he fell to the ground.
Xi Rong's heart felt as if it was being strangled. She swung her sword like a madman and slashed at the approaching Ge soldiers.
I'm afraid I can't get out today, so I'll take away as many enemy soldiers as I can. I'll make a profit even if it means exchanging my life.
Xi Rong continued to hack and charge, preventing the Ge soldiers from getting close to Yue Lu who was trampling on the ground.
The other female soldiers also protected her. Even though they were filled with despair and felt they would die today, they did not give up, but fought even more fiercely.
At this moment, a horn sounded and the sound of horse hooves came from behind.
Xi Rong turned her head with her numb eyes and saw countless war horses running towards them.
She originally thought they were cavalrymen from the Ge Kingdom, but by now she had gotten over the feeling of despair and was just waiting to die in battle.
But suddenly she saw a cavalryman holding a flag, which was the battle flag of Daliang, and her eyes instantly regained their luster.
Then she shouted: "Reinforcements are here, our reinforcements are here, everyone hold on!"
The soldiers nearby heard her shouting, and each of them couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope, and charged forward more bravely.
When the chief general of the Ge State saw that the army of Daliang actually came to support, his face turned very ugly.
He said with a sullen face: "Kill! If we can't capture the Marquis of Zhennan alive, then kill her!"
Xi Rong's identity is special, so it will be beneficial to them whether she is captured or killed directly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a long arrow suddenly flew from far away and instantly pierced his chest.
The commander only had time to see clearly that the person who shot him was a handsome young man in armor, and then he fell off his horse, holding his chest.
"General!"
The main general was suddenly shot dead, and the army of Ge State was in chaos.
In particular, suddenly several small black balls were thrown over by the soldiers of Daliang, exploding with a huge noise, and a large number of their people were killed.
The soldiers here had long heard of the power of the little black ball, and were frightened when they saw it today.
With their main general killed, they ran around like headless flies for a while, and many of them had already fled to the back.
Therefore, under the leadership of Xiao Hanzheng, Daliang's army defeated the enemy one-sidedly.
Seeing this, the deputy general could only order someone to blow the retreat horn and then lead his men to retreat.
Xiao Hanzheng asked the old general to take people out to chase after him. This was the time to give the fallen dog a beating.
On the other side, Shi Qingluo rode his horse and galloped in front of Xi Rong.
Only when Xi Rong was pulled by Shi Qingluo did she feel more truly that they were rescued.
She turned her head to see that the Ge army was defeated by Xiao Hanzheng, then turned back to look at Shi Qingluo.
He pointed at Yue Lu lying on the ground and uttered two words with great effort, "Save him."
Then his vision went dark and he fell to the ground, but was caught by Shi Qingluo who was quick-eyed and quick-handed.
After an unknown amount of time, Xi Rong opened her eyes.
What caught my eye was not a battlefield, but a tent.
She turned her head and saw Shi Qingluo sitting not far away reading a book.
"Luoluo!"
Shi Qingluo put down the book and walked quickly to the bedside, "Rongrong, do you feel better?"
Before that, Xi Rong suddenly closed her eyes and fell limp, which scared her.
Fortunately, we brought the person back. Although he had a lot of wounds on his body, they were not fatal.
The reason why he fainted was because he lost too much blood and was exhausted, but fortunately his life was not in danger.
Xi Rong still looked a little weak, "Much better."
"I thought I was going to die in this battle, but I didn't expect you to come."
Then she couldn't help but ask, "Where's Yue Lu?"
There was a kind of fear and expectation in his eyes.
Afraid that the other person is dead, and hoping that the other person still has a chance of survival.
Shi Qingluo could see her worry, "He has been rescued by Lao Xiao, don't worry."
She recognized Yue Lu on the battlefield, the young man who insisted on going back to Heyang County with Xi Rong when they were in Beicheng.
At that time, Yue Lu gave her the impression that he was a black-bellied person, perhaps a little wolfdog.
Both Xi Rong and Xiao Hanzheng had checked Yue Lu and found no problem with his identity.
But everyone was on guard.
Shi Qingluo also didn't expect that Yue Lu would sacrifice himself to save Xi Rong.
When Yue Lu was rescued, his back was full of arrows and he was only breathing his last breath.
If it weren’t for the young husband’s excellent medical skills, Yue Lu would have been dead.
So it can't be a show or acting, but a true expression of feelings.
Hearing that Yue Lu was not dead, Xi Rong finally let go of her worries, "That's good."
“Is he awake?” she asked.
Shi Qingluo shook his head, "He was seriously injured. He has only been rescued but has not yet woken up."
"Old Xiao said he might not wake up until tomorrow."
She stood up, poured the medicine that had been warmed into a bowl, and fed it to Xi Rong. "When you can walk, I'll take you to see him."
Xi Rong drank the medicine obediently and said, "Okay!"
Qing Luo did not leave at night, but stayed in the tent to look after Xi Rong, fearing that she might have a fever or something.
Fortunately, Xi Rong was in good physical condition and fell asleep soon after taking the medicine, without showing any abnormal symptoms.
Yue Lu, however, developed a high fever.
Xiao Hanzheng fed him the antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drugs left by Shi Qingluo, and also had someone feed him the fever-reducing and healing drugs he prescribed twice.
The next day, the body temperature returned to normal and the person woke up in the evening.
