Chapter 169 We won!
"General Wu! You are disregarding the lives of our soldiers and taking their lives lightly!"
"General Qu, are you going to disobey military orders?!"
Wuming was acting like a bully, showing off his power.
Wu Feng had a gloomy face and glanced at Qu Fan with an ambiguous look.
Among the 100,000 troops this time, one third were from the Qu family army, one third were from the Regent's camp, and one third were new recruits.
Therefore, even though the entire army was wiped out, King Jin did not feel the slightest bit of heartache.
On the contrary, he would be happy to have weakened the military strength of His Majesty and the Regent.
So, now, Wu Feng has to share the worries of King Jin so that he can take credit in front of King Jin.
Qu Fan glared at Wu Feng and Wu Ming fiercely, wishing he could bite off a piece of their flesh in the next second.
As a fellow military general, he treated the soldiers who had risked their lives like ants, showing no mercy to them. He was worse than pigs and dogs!
"Why, you don't dare to attack Da Zhou, but you dare to bully me?
Come on, I'm craning my neck to wait for you!"
Hatred overflowed from Qu Fan's eyes, and Wu Feng stretched his neck forward provocatively.
Qu Fan paused and silently looked away.
He looked up to the sky and sighed, "Today, Heaven is determined to destroy my Qu Family Army! Big brother, fellow Qu Family Army seniors, I, Qu Fan, am useless. I can't protect the Qu Family Army today!"
Wu Feng snorted coldly and disagreed.
"It's all your fault that the Qu family army is useless. You don't even have a single capable general, and yet you still have the nerve to be sentimental here!"
Qu Fan ignored Wu Ming's venomous words, looked back at Simon with attachment, and rushed towards the city wall resolutely.
"Warriors of Simon, today is the day for us to serve our country. We will die on the battlefield in our loyalty to His Majesty!"
Unfortunately, only the remaining soldiers of the Qu family responded to him. The rest of the people seemed to have heard nothing and continued to bow their heads and kowtow as if they were crazy.
Qu Fan shouted, "Those who disobey military orders will be killed!"
He drew his sword, hardened his heart, and slashed at the soldier who was kneeling and bowing closest to him.
A bloody head flew out, and the others seemed to be awakened, running back screaming.
When they ran to the third fortification, several of them were chopped down by Wu Feng. The others had no choice but to jump into the moat.
When Qu Fan saw this, he gritted his teeth and rushed towards the city wall with the less than 1,000 remaining Qu family soldiers.
Bai Li was not afraid when 80,000 people attacked the city just now. A wave of crossbows from just a thousand people can handle it.
As the morning light breaks, everything is set in stone.
Qu Fan died from Bai Zongren's arrow. A look of relief appeared on his face before he died. He felt that dying at the hands of the former General Bai was not in vain for his half-life of military service.
Wu Feng fled early when he saw the situation was not good. Li Dazhuang led his men to capture alive the Simon soldiers who jumped into the moat, and also salvaged those who drowned or fell to death.
The first rays of morning light shone through the distant mountain ridges onto the city wall.
The soldiers who had fought on the city wall all night bathed in the warm morning light and felt that all their efforts, tiredness and sweat were worth it.
"Marshal, we won?"
"Nonsense, of course we won!"
"Roar, roar, roar! We won!"
Such cheers resounded in every corner of Yuanzhou City.
"Daughter, you are great, better than daddy!"
Bai Zongren came to his daughter, patted her thin shoulder heavily with one hand, then looked at her with tears in his eyes and excited face.
This time he was happier and more excited than when he had personally commanded and won the battle.
Bai Li deliberately bared his teeth and covered his shoulder, prying his big hand off.
With a provocative wink, he said to his father, "Why, you want to fight me again?"
Bai Zongren laughed awkwardly, "Ahem, well, I'll go check on the injured brothers.
By the way, those weird powders of yours are really useful and they stop bleeding pretty well."
"Hey, hey, I went there?"
Bai Zongren ran away without waiting for his daughter's response.
What a joke, are you trying to show off to her here?
If he lost to his daughter in front of so many soldiers, wouldn't he lose all his dignity and face?
If he doesn't leave now, when will he leave? He is not stupid!
After a battle, there are so many follow-up trivial matters that need to be dealt with.
Bai Li didn't want to take care of these things and left it all to Li Dazhuang.
The siege of Yuanzhou has come to an end for the time being. She is going to sleep for three days and three nights. Anyone who disturbs her will be her enemy!
Others seemed to be handling the situation with ease, but she was actually very nervous inside.
If there was a martial arts master in Simon's army, like the snipers of later generations, who could take people's heads from thousands of miles away without making any sound, she wouldn't even know how she died.
It doesn't matter if she dies, her father, uncle, brother and the cavalry will all be buried in Yuanzhou City.
Also, her family members who are thousands of miles away on the Qianxi border, without her and her father and brothers, how are the elderly, women and children going to survive when the country is on the verge of collapse?
And Namgoong Min...
She is not that great about serving the country and the people, and she doesn't think so much. She just thinks about her relatives and the people she cares about, and she can't stand it.
So, she couldn't die, at least not before the enemy was driven out.
Fortunately, she won the fight and still had her head on her shoulders.
That's good. Next she will go into seclusion, oh no, she will sleep and practice. Give orders, no one can disturb her even if the emperor comes!
Bai Zongren excitedly brought a pot of old hen soup to nourish his daughter, but was stopped outside the door by Wu Lanzhi and Gao Dani.
"Our Marshal said that she wants to sleep and won't see anyone, not even her own father!"
"This kid, you have to eat before you sleep, otherwise you won't grow taller."
Bai Li was soundly sleeping in the room...
"Still no, no one can enter without the Marshal's order!"
"Deputy General Bai, let's go. Since the Marshal has given such an order, she will naturally have her own arrangements."
Although Luo Yang felt uncomfortable seeing Wu Lanzhi and the others taking care of Bai Li, he still felt sorry for her and let her sleep a little longer.
He didn't know how nervous she was in this battle, but he knew that he had never seen anyone who could make her so tired that she had no interest in eating and only wanted to sleep.
When I first started training with her, everyone was so tired that they would collapse on the ground and fall asleep as soon as they stopped, but she could still go hunting refreshed.
One can imagine how tense she was during this battle!
After his advice, Bai Zongren felt even more distressed about his daughter.
How tired must she be?
It’s even more important to nourish your body!
But the chicken soup kept getting cold and hot, hot and cold, but Bai Li still didn't get up.
Wu Lanzhi and others took turns guarding her door. As a day and a night passed, she stayed in the room without eating or drinking, and did not wake up.
If Wu Lanzhi hadn't been so worried that she secretly went into the house to take a look, she would have thought that she was not in the house at all.
If I hadn't seen her breathing evenly on the bed, with a peaceful and calm expression on her childish face, I would have thought she was seriously injured and unconscious.
Bai Li, who seemed to be soundly asleep in the eyes of everyone, actually woke up once in the middle.
