The moment Yan Yiming fell off the horse, Xiaopingguo screamed so loudly that her eardrums almost broke.
“Your favorability isn’t even 100% yet, you can’t just die like this!”
Yan Yiming pulled the corners of his lips with difficulty and wanted to retort to Xiao Pingguo, but before he could organize a complete sentence in his mind, he fainted again.
Forty thousand cavalrymen against more than one hundred thousand Mongolian troops, even if they had the upper hand, it would still be extremely difficult to win because of the difference in numbers.
The Mongolian army suffered heavy casualties, and the Xia army was not very optimistic either. The 40,000 cavalrymen held on until the arrival of the follow-up infantry, and finally had a chance to survive.
The Mongolian Khan became more and more courageous as the battle went on, and he even had the idea of fighting to the death. After many days of hard fighting, only 10,000 of the 40,000 cavalry were left, and the infantry also suffered heavy casualties. It was not until then that Shao Jingyu finally arrived.
Shao Jingyu led 60,000 elite soldiers across the grassland and unexpectedly encountered the army of Wang Ting, the Left Wise King of Mongolia. King Zuo Xian probably had no intention of fighting head-on, but he met Shao Jingyu unexpectedly and had no choice but to avoid the battle in a hurry.
Shao Jingyu killed 70,000 enemies with less than 10,000 casualties and successfully captured Zuo Xian Wang, achieving a great victory. After that, he did not dare to delay at all and led the remaining soldiers to rush to support the Western Route Army.
Before this, Shao Jingyu knew that Yan Yiming would face a fierce battle against the main force of the Mongolian army, and there was even a great possibility that his entire army would be wiped out. After all, the number of people in the two armies was too different, and they were facing the most elite main force of the Mongolian army.
Yun Xiao could feel Shao Jingyu's anxiety. When he rode his horse to find the Western Route Army, there was no joy of victory on Shao Jingyu's face. Yun Xiao saw it all, but was unable to comfort Shao Jingyu. He thought of the thin boy with whom Shao Jingyu was getting closer and closer, and he became worried and anxious.
Fortunately, they met the team that Yan Yiming sent specially to find Shao Jingyu, so they didn't spend time looking for him, but rushed directly to the battlefield.
When they arrived at the battlefield at full speed, the scene before them was even more tragic than they had imagined.
This was a more brutal war than the last time he was trapped in Yinshan. Corpses were everywhere, with only abandoned war horses wandering around. The war was drawing to a close, and both sides had paid a heavy price for the end of the war. Shao Jingyu ended this fierce battle in the fastest way possible, leaving the victory that had been stalemate for several days in the hands of the Xia army.
Although they failed to capture the Mongol Khan, the remaining Mongol troops were no longer a threat to them.
The huge battlefield was littered with corpses, those of the Mongolian army and the Xia army. The blood had dyed their clothes red, making it impossible to tell who was who. It was so cruel that it was unbearable to watch.
In the bloody battlefield, the Right General and Yan Yiming were still not found.
The fear in Shao Jingyu's heart became more and more severe. He looked at the battlefield silently, and suddenly he shouted loudly, without even noticing that his voice was shaking uncontrollably.
"Look! Go find it!"
He didn't want to believe in death. Even if, even if he was really dead, he had to find the body...
Find it, find it quickly, he roared almost madly.
Everybody go look for it.
Me, I'll go look for it too.
Tens of thousands of soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, brought back the soldiers who were still alive, and then searched for General You and Yan Yiming. After a long time, someone finally found the right general. The majestic old general still had several feather arrows stuck in his body, two of which were even stuck straight in his heart.
The right general's eyes were still open, but he had stopped breathing.
Shao Jingyu's hands were shaking slightly. Looking at General Chen's eyes that were unwilling to close even after his death, Shao Jingyu couldn't bear it any longer and raised his head, but tears were still flowing.
He suddenly remembered that before going to the battle, General Chen Lai told him that his eldest daughter-in-law was pregnant, and that she would be able to see her grandson when she returned to Nanjing after the battle.
But now, he can't go back.
His eyes remained open until his death, but he could never return to Jinling.
Men don't shed tears easily, but they do when they are sad.
After the battle, everything had changed. Shao Jingyu roared to the sky, and everyone present lowered their heads, either feeling sad or crying silently.
We were once comrades who fought side by side. We once looked at the moon and talked about our old mothers and our infant children. But now, we are separated forever.
Shao Jingyu had never hated himself so much before.
If it weren't for his initial misjudgment that allowed the Mongolian army to seize the opportunity, General Chen and tens of thousands of soldiers might not have died. If he had come to support earlier, perhaps there would not have been such a tragic scene.
Even though we know that chasing after Zuo Xian Wang was the right choice, the consequences of this choice are still despairing and unacceptable.
The surviving soldiers were carried away one by one, but Yan Yiming was still nowhere to be found. Shao Jingyu's face became more and more ugly. Yun Xiao didn't even dare to say a word to him until someone suddenly shouted in surprise from a distance, "We found Captain Yan!"
Shao Jingyu's tense nerves finally moved. Without thinking, he ran towards that place.
Everyone found Yan Yiming in a pile of corpses. Like the other dead soldiers, she was covered in blood. If the soldier was not familiar with Yan Yiming, he would not have recognized her.
Carefully digging the person out from the pile of corpses, looking at the wounds on her body made people feel sad.
Yan Yiming had a feather arrow stuck in his body and an obvious bloody hole on his waist, which was still bleeding. The most serious part was his back, where the armor was completely cut, leaving a bloody knife mark, as if his entire spine was cruelly split in half, making it unbearable to look at.
Shao Jingyu had seen so much blood and so many deaths, he could endure them all, but at this moment he was a little unsteady on his feet. If Yun Xiao hadn't been quick to help him, Shao Jingyu would have almost fallen to the ground with weak legs.
How could he be hurt to this extent?
Yun Xiao turned his head away reluctantly.
Being injured like this is no different from death, or maybe he is already dead.
Her injuries were so severe that no one dared to touch her. No one knew whether she was alive or dead. Shao Jingyu didn't even know where to touch her at this moment. He just knelt beside her at a loss with red eyes.
No one dared to tell Shao Jingyu that Captain Yan was probably dead. Seeing that Xiao Pingguo was about to miss the best period for treatment, she had no choice but to force Yan Yiming to move his fingers.
Shao Jingyu suddenly saw Yan Yiming's fingers moving slightly, and her heart came alive again. She called her urgently, and finally saw Yan Yiming's slight reaction, then she shouted urgently, "Military doctor!"
The wound was too severe, and they dared not move at all. In the end, they could only carefully carry him on a stretcher. In the small tent set up on the spot, Shao Jingyu stood beside him and held his breath nervously. The military doctor, who was originally calm, was trembling uncontrollably because of Shao Jingyu's anxiety. He swallowed his saliva and dared to say to Shao Jingyu,
"The arrow is too deep. General, can you help me hold Captain Yan down?"
It was very painful to pull out the arrow, and many soldiers resisted because the pain was unbearable, causing the arrow to break in the flesh. This was the worst outcome.
Shao Jingyu understood, and without saying a word, he quickly stepped forward, his eyes fell on the horrible back, his heart ached again, and he gritted his teeth and held Yan Yiming down tightly.
With a muffled groan, the military doctor let out a long sigh and finally pulled out the arrow.
The arrow had a barbed hook, which was even more painful than if it had pierced into the flesh. Yan Yiming, who had been unconscious, suddenly groaned in pain and woke up. But it was only for a moment. When he saw Shao Jingyu, he mumbled, "I finally waited for the general," but before he finished speaking, he fainted again.
The military doctor hurriedly stopped the bleeding, and then began to treat the wounds of varying sizes on his body. The scar on his back was the most noticeable.
Not daring to delay any longer, Shao Jingyu carefully cut open the fabric with a knife to prevent her from feeling any more pain, and finally revealed her entire body covered in scars.
Suddenly, the pupils shrank.
Yun Xiao, who had been outside, suddenly heard a loud noise from inside. He shouted "What happened?" and rushed in without a care in the world. He saw the military doctor kneeling on the ground trembling. The moment he came in, Shao Jingyu blocked Yan Yiming tightly and said in a cold voice, "Get out!"
Yun Xiao wanted to ask more, but met Shao Jingyu's cold eyes and shuddered.
He let out two "ohs" and pulled aside the curtain before hurriedly retreating. Only after Yun Xiao had left did Shao Jingyu cast his stern gaze on the military doctor kneeling on the ground.
His heart was too complicated at the moment, or too shocked, but he didn't have time to think about it. Shao Jingyu whispered to the military doctor, "You and I know this. If a third person knows about it,"
Before he finished speaking, the military doctor kowtowed and promised, "I will keep my mouth shut!"
Shao Jingyu believed him and dared not say more, but now that he knew the result, he was reluctant to let the military doctor continue to treat Yan Yiming's injuries, but at this moment he had no choice but to grit his teeth and said, "Hurry up!"
"Yes, yes, yes," the military doctor trembled and did not move forward, but at this moment he was more nervous than before.
Shao Jingyu stood aside nervously, and only then did he have time to digest the fact that had just shocked him so much.
Yan Yiming, this Rakshasa who fought on the battlefield, was actually a woman!
