Chapter 143 Reinforcements Arrive



The next morning, Fengjiu hadn't gotten up yet when she heard loud footsteps outside. Fengjiu thought something had happened and immediately got out of bed.

When Fengjiu walked out of the tent, she saw that it was the prince who had brought reinforcements. Fengjiu couldn't help but sigh that in ancient times, wars were fought with legs. If you really had to wait for reinforcements, it would be too late.

Eleven days have passed since we received the urgent message from 800 miles away. There are only 200,000 soldiers on the border. Can we really wait for the arrival of reinforcements?

The prince was also surprised to see Feng Jiu and Nangong Beichen. "When did you come?"

"Oh, you came the day before you set out. Didn't Father tell you?"

Prince: ???

"Father didn't tell me you were coming! What are you doing here? How is the battle going now?"

Nangong Beichen glanced at Xiao Shujin and said, "Uncle, didn't you send a message to tell the Crown Prince about the situation?"

Xiao Shujin: "I didn't send a message, and you didn't send a message either?"

Helplessly, the two men looked at the prince and turned their heads away guiltily.

Prince: "What's going on?"

Xiao Shujin: "Well, Your Highness, you should return to the capital with your army in a couple of days. This will be over in two days."

"What's going on? Can you explain why you're going back in two days?"

Xiao Shujin invited the prince into the general's tent and told him everything that had happened during this period.

The prince: "Are they both so powerful? Then there's no point for us to come now?"

"It's still useful. We'll attack them tomorrow morning, capture all the people, and make Baili Xuance bleed. Otherwise, don't we need food and military pay to come all the way here to support them?"

The Crown Prince: "Hahaha, hahaha, fine, that's it. Let's see if Baili Xuance dares to attack Nanli again. This time, I'll make him lose everything."

Brothers Feng Hao and Feng Chen came to look for Feng Jiu. They also saw six boys from Fengjia Village among the soldiers brought by the prince. They were all good brothers that Feng Hao had grown up with.

Everyone was very happy to see each other. The brothers Feng Ziming and Feng Zixiao were both grandsons of their second uncle, and had been playing together with Feng Hao since they were young.

There are four others who are of average size. These guys have all taken the strength pills given by Fengjiu, and they all like to practice martial arts. You can imagine how noisy it will be when they are together.

I heard that Fengjiu was also in the military camp, so I asked the two brothers to come over and bring Fengjiu to them to see.

Look, the two brothers came, greeted the prince, and left with their sister in their arms.

Fengjiu was still confused as to why her brother carried her out. When they arrived at Fengjiu's tent, she saw Zixiao and Ziming and other brothers from the clan.

Fengjiu: "Wow, brothers, why are you here? Wow, wow, wow, my daughter missed you so much!"

Feng Ziming picked up Fengjiu and weighed her: "Sister seems to have lost a lot of weight. Is it because she didn't eat well in the barracks?"

"No, I eat enough every day and I'm not hungry. It's just that my brothers look thinner and darker."

Several people laughed, knowing that the younger sister was obsessed with looks and liked fair-skinned boys. It seemed that they had to whiten their skin to win the younger sister's favor!

After talking for a while in the tent, they went back to the recruit camp and agreed to have dinner together at Fengjiu in the evening. The boys all agreed.

The food I’ve been eating recently has been so bad, only dry food every day. I really miss the delicious food my sister can bring out!

Fortunately, the village chief brought them instant noodles on the way, otherwise they would have been like the new recruits who came with them, eating black-faced steamed buns every day.

The brothers Feng Hao and Feng Chen followed Xiao Shujin from then on. Xiao Shujin promised Feng Jiu that he would train his two brothers so that they could become generals guarding a region in the future.

In the evening, Fengjiu brought out a table full of delicious food. The nine people were preparing to eat in Fengjiu's tent when Prince Nangong Beichen and Xiao Shujin arrived.

At first, the six brothers from Fengjia Village were a little reserved, but after they got familiar with each other, they became less reserved. After dinner, Xiao Shujin took them all to the training ground to see how good their martial arts were.

The soldiers who had just finished their meal gathered around. They knew that Feng Hao and Feng Chen were very strong and had excellent martial arts skills, and they wondered how skilled the others with them were.

Xiao Shujin had been practicing martial arts since childhood and was very good at it. At first, he was prepared to fight two of them at once. Feng Hao said that their martial arts were not bad, so Xiao Shujin took them one by one.

Feng Zixiao was the first to start. This guy had great leg skills. Xiao Shujin fought with him for quarter of an hour before Feng Zixiao lost.

Xiao Shujin couldn't help but admire the boy's strength and leg skills. If Xiao Shujin didn't have many years of fighting experience, it would probably take him a lot of effort to defeat him.

The remaining boys did not fight with Xiao Shujin. If Xiao Shujin lost, he would lose face. So the boys continued to fight in pairs, just like they did when they practiced in the village.

The soldiers who were watching nearby were all fascinated. These guys' kung fu was really good.

There was constant applause, several bonfires were crackling, and there were constant shouts in the military camp.

Such a scene seems to be just like in modern times. At that time, their troops would also organize and occasionally compete on the playground, and comrades would sing military songs together. How happy they were at that time!

I wonder if his comrades are doing well now? Do they still think of her occasionally? Feng Jiu still feels a little lonely in her heart, and her eyes can't help but look into the distance.

Nangong Beichen, who was standing by, seemed to notice her expression and couldn't help but pick her up.

Feng Jiu hugged Nangong Beichen's neck, rested her little head on his small shoulder, and tears fell drop by drop.

Nangong Beichen patted her back gently, silently comforting her.

By the time the competition was over, Feng Jiu had already fallen asleep on Nangong Beichen's shoulder!

Nangong Beichen carried her into the tent, went directly to the space, carried her to the room on the second floor, and took off her shoes.

He filled a basin with hot water, wiped her little hands and feet clean, covered her with the quilt, and then went downstairs to the practice room.

Xiaolonglong had been practicing in the training room, and when he saw Nangong Beichen come in, he was not curious.

When Xiaolonglong finished his training, he opened his eyes and saw Nangong Beichen looking at him from the opposite side. Xiaolonglong was frightened.

He stammered, "What are you doing? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Tell me, what are you hiding from us?"

"What, what? What am I hiding from you?"

"Are you really our origin? Otherwise, how would you know about the soul contract you mentioned?"

"That, that, is my guess. Yes, that's what I guessed!"

"Haha, you're still lying to me, aren't you? Well, you don't have to tell me. I've already remembered some of it. Don't blame me when you make me remember everything."
