Huo Baijun, Li Jun, Mu Zixi, and Ji Bai left the line and came out.
They were all dressed as soldiers, but Feng Min wasn't among them. It seems he went back to Shengjing with them.
"Hehe, it's just a few scrapes." Huo Baijun patted his chest and grinned. His left leg was still a little limping, but he looked quite energetic.
Li Jun bowed deeply, "Wenxiu thanks the princess for saving my life the other day."
Mu Zixi and Ji Bai also bowed and clasped their hands in thanks.
Xiao Zhixing waved his hand, "No need, it was just a coincidence."
Without further ado, Xiao Zhixing immediately assigned tasks: "Xiao Kui is seriously injured; we have a few days to catch our breath."
"In order to prevent the enemy from leaving the pass in the future, we must find a way to stop them. The new city must also be built as soon as possible, even if it is not high or sturdy."

Xiao Bei replied, and left with Ji Bai, who had joined the logistics team, to make arrangements quickly.
Xiao Zhixing continued, "Xiao Long is missing. Huo Baijun, your Huo family is good at tracking. I'm giving you a thousand men. Set off immediately and find him for me."
"Yes, Princess!" Huo Baijun saluted and ran out excitedly.
"Young Master Li, Young Master Mu, there are still 20,000 enemy troops over at Yanshan. You are allowed to take 5,000 men and immediately return to help the palace escape."
"The others must be stationed here to explain the truth to His Majesty on my behalf. I apologize that I am unable to go to his aid."
"Yes, Princess."
