After Xiao Duo finished speaking, he saw a graceful figure circling behind a tree not far away.
Without even taking off the veil, Xiao Duo could recognize Su Jinyue's figure, "Miss Su is quite smart."
Su Jinyue lifted the veil in front of her hat, revealing her delicate little face, "General Xiao, what a coincidence that we meet here."
"Unfortunately." Xiao Duo said, "I came to look for you."
When he led the horse to Su Jinyue's side, the smile on Xiao Duo's face faded, "Miss Su, do you know how dangerous it is to go to the border? Why did you leave the city without permission?"
Although she felt a little guilty for sneaking out, when Su Jinyue heard Xiao Duo ask her this, she still raised her head and said, "I know, General Xiao, you just think I am stubborn. If anything happens, I will take full responsibility!"
Although she changed the outcome of the fall of two cities in this life, she was not sure that the epidemic caused by the large accumulation of corpses in the previous life would not happen again in this life.
So she can't look back!
Looking at Su Jinyue's determined eyes, he probably guessed that she was hiding something from him, but he did not ask any further questions.
"Okay." Xiao Duo said, "In that case, I won't try to persuade Miss Su."
Su Jinyue got on the horse and turned her head to look at Xiao Duo, "Let's go, little general. Don't waste time on the road."
Xiao Duo and Su Jinyue traveled all the way and reached the western border at almost the fastest speed.
Ever since we entered the Western Frontier, the further west we travel, the more shocking the scene becomes!
This place was affected by the war in front and was already devastated. Many women and children fell on the road, making Su Jinyue feel bitter.
"It's still too late." Su Jinyue couldn't help but tear up when she saw this scene.
Xiao Duo's voice became lighter, "Ms. Su, you have done everything you can, so there is no need to blame yourself."
Su Jinyue didn't care about being sad. She wanted to follow Xiao Duo to the front barracks to check on the soldiers. "Okay! Let's go!"
Inside the tent, Deputy General Zhao Datong already looked dejected. The enemy's continuous battles for days had left them exhausted. If there was no other solution, the city would probably be breached!
"General Zhao!"
Bai Yingxue, dressed in red, opened the tent of the military camp and walked in. "When will the rations for today be distributed to the brothers?"
Zhao Datong was also worried about this matter. "The front line is already running low on food and grass, and there is no news from the capital yet. I don't know when the food and grass will be delivered. I'm afraid my brothers will starve in the next few days."
"How can that be possible!" Bai Yingxue said, "How can we fight without food? Su Hou abandoned this and went back to the capital, and he hasn't come back yet. He knows how much time and lives he has wasted!"
How could Zhao Datong not know this? But it would be useless to say more now. Just as he was about to say something, the soldiers outside lifted the curtain and rushed in, "General! General Xiao is here with his men!"
"What?!"
Zhao Datong was shocked and stood up suddenly, "Quick! Go out and welcome the young general!"
When Bai Yingxue heard that Xiao Duo was coming, her wheat-colored cheeks suddenly flushed, and she turned around and followed Zhao Datong out!
Even though he traveled day and night, Xiao Duo's composure did not diminish in the slightest.
Zhao Datong saw Xiao Duo's eyes welling up with tears, and he stepped forward and was about to kneel down in front of Xiao Duo's horse, "Young General Xiao!!"
Xiao Duo immediately dismounted and helped the man up, "General Zhao, there is no need to do this."
Zhao Datong was a seven-foot-tall man with a strong and majestic appearance. After being helped up by Xiao Duo, he cried like a tearful man, "We have been waiting for someone from the court to come! But...but why is it that only the young generals and his men are here?"
Song Yan said at the side: "General Zhao, please relax. His Majesty has sent people to escort the food and troops. Our master came here first to see the situation at the border first."
Bai Yingxue was originally very happy to see Xiao Duo, but she didn't expect that there was a woman following Xiao Duo!
She looked at Su Jinyue's face revealed after she took off her veil, and her expression immediately darkened.
Not knowing that she was being targeted, Su Jinyue said to Xiaotao, "Go and find everyone to move the things we brought from the carriage down."
"Yes, miss."
Zhao Datong wiped his tears with his sleeves, then looked at Su Jinyue. Seeing this fairy-like woman, he was stunned, "Who is this..."
Xiao Duo said: "This is Su Jinyue, the daughter of Ningyuan Marquis, and my future wife."
Su Jinyue didn't expect Xiao Duo to say the second half of the sentence. She was stunned and looked in Xiao Duo's direction.
Xiao Duo's expression was serious, and he didn't think what he said was shocking.
Zhao Datong was stunned when he heard this. Before he could speak, Bai Yingxue said, "So you are the daughter of Ning Yuanhou. Are you here to atone for Ning Yuanhou's sins?"
Bai Yingxue looked coldly in the direction of Su Jinyue, and said rudely, "I'd rather the marquis not dare to come to the border than to ask a delicate girl like you to come to the border and cause trouble for us!"
"Yingxue!" Zhao Datong hurriedly stopped her from speaking. Although he had many dissatisfactions with Su Yan in his heart, he also understood that this matter should not affect innocent people.
What's more, Su Jinyue has a special identity, so he naturally doesn't want to offend her.
"Am I wrong?!"
Bai Yingxue has always looked down on Su Jinyue, a lady from a noble family who can only recite poems and write couplets in the capital. "If we really start fighting, who will be able to take care of her? She will only cause trouble for us!"
After hearing her words, the soldiers around her also looked in Su Jinyue's direction frequently.
One look at this delicate and tender girl, and it's obvious that she can't endure the hardships of life at the border. I also don't know why this young General Xiao brought his family with him.
Su Jinyue stepped forward first and bowed to Zhao Datong, "I can only apologize on behalf of my father."
"But there is no point in saying this now. I just hope to save as many people as I can."
Zhao Datong was somewhat touched by Su Jinyue's words, but Bai Yingxue sneered at the side, "Everyone can say nice things! Don't make a fool of yourself by expecting a woman like you to go to the battlefield to save people!"
Su Jinyue straightened up, walked to Bai Yingxue, looked at her and said, "Going to the battlefield is not the only way to save lives."
"You are also a woman, young lady. Why do you belittle women like this?"
Bai Yingxue's face changed, "How can I be the same as you! I..."
Xiao Duo interrupted Bai Yingxue and said to Zhao Datong, "She knows medical skills and can protect herself. General Zhao doesn't need to worry about it."
Seeing Xiao Duo speak, Zhao Datong quickly said, "Young General, let's go into the tent and talk first!"
Zhao Datong led Xiao Duo and others into the tent and asked someone to pour them tea. "No matter what, your arrival, young general, is great news. Our Mighty Army is saved!"
Bai Yingxue couldn't help but speak up, "But the food and grass are almost gone these days. Because Marquis Su left his post without permission, the imperial rations haven't arrived yet, and the soldiers can't hold on any longer!"
"I brought a cart of food on the way here." Su Jinyue said, "It should be enough to solve the urgent problem."
Bai Yingxue glanced at Su Jinyue and said, "The food you brought is just a drop in the bucket! What's the use of it!"
