Chapter 365 Qingniu Pass
This Dongfeng country is really hateful. How can we justify their invasion if we don't defeat them?
Su Yue called Hongying over in annoyance and quickly instructed her, "Hongying, quickly hand over the things you have on hand, and come with us to Qingniu Pass immediately after you are done."
Hongying must be brought along. Although she has spatial and mental attack abilities, her martial arts skills are her weakness.
She will not underestimate the people in this world and must be fully prepared.
"Okay, does the princess have anything else to ask?"
Su Yue shook her head: "Not for now. Come to me after you have handed over the things you have on hand."
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Hongying had a lot of things on her hands, so she handed them over to the managers below. These managers were bought by her personally from the pawnshop. They were capable and trustworthy. She believed that they could get things done without her.
I won’t let the princess down.
After Hongying left, Su Yue called Jiang Bo over again and explained the affairs of the mansion to him.
Although she was in charge of the household affairs of the palace, it was basically handed over to Jiang Bo to manage. Jiang Bo was very loyal and managed the affairs well. He was a good housekeeper. She usually just looked at the accounts.
When Jiang Bolai was called, the most important thing was Mrs. Lin and her son in the guest room.
Just as Mrs. Lin’s identity was discovered, the Dongfeng Kingdom attacked. Su Yue didn’t quite believe that things were such a coincidence.
"Don't worry, Princess. I will take Madam Lin's affairs to heart and nothing will go wrong." Jiang Bo bowed and assured.
"Well, Jiang Bo has to keep an eye on her. Her martial arts skills, disguise skills, and mechanical skills are very impressive. We can't be careless."
Su Yue gave some instructions. She was really worried about Madam Lin being in the palace. She really wanted to knock them unconscious and put them in the space, but it was unrealistic. Madam Lin was a smart and cautious person, and the space could not be revealed to her.
"Yes, I will pay close attention to this matter."
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Jiang. Go and get busy."
"Yes, I will take my leave."
After Jiang Bo left, Su Yue came to the guest house and told Madam Lin about the Dongfeng Kingdom's attack on Qingniu Pass.
Madam Lin was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "Why would the East Phoenix Kingdom attack the West Phoenix Kingdom? There is no reason."
Madam Lin had a look of surprise on her face, showing no sign of abnormality. Su Yue's eyes darkened as she said, "They are attacking us for no reason. This concubine and the prince will have to go to the border soon. Madam Lin, just stay in the palace."
Su Yue's tone carried a warning, and Madam Lin naturally heard it. She nodded respectfully, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I won't let you down."
"I hope so. I have more to say."
After Su Yue finished speaking, she prescribed some medicine for the child and left.
After she left, Su Yue kept watching Madam Lin with her mental power and saw that she was normal and there was nothing unusual about her.
Madam Lin breathed a sigh of relief at this moment. Su Yue's warning just now frightened her. It was not Su Yue's tone, but the murderous aura in her.
As a member of the Dragon Palace, everyone has walked out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and everyone has killed people. She is very familiar with that murderous aura.
But since she planned to surrender to Su Yue, she would not think of going back, nor would she cause trouble for Su Yue. She would not do the previous tasks either. The organization should never put a curse on her child.
That is her bottom line. No one can harm her child, not even the organization.
Having just witnessed Su Yuelu's skills, and knowing that they were all in the same boat, she became even more determined to betray the organization and follow Su Yuelu.
She was originally from Xifeng Country, and this time she came back she also planned to look for her family.
Su Yue and the other person only took half a day to arrange everything.
As for Murong Li, he left An Liu behind in the capital, and An Yi led a thousand people to go with them. These thousand people were the ones An Yi brought back from Northwest County years ago. Most of them were Murong Li's former comforts, and a small number were trained later. Those people all had a foundation in martial arts, and now they are also quite skilled.
General An Yi also selected 300 people from the people recruited by the Marquis' Mansion in Northwest County and brought them back. As soon as these people came back, they were handed over to the old Marquis.
The others had basically no room for advancement, so they were assigned to various places. Some were assigned to manage chores, while others were assigned to gather information...
In short, no one will be wasted.
Murong Li and his companions met An Yi and the others outside the city. Murong Li said a few simple words, and then Su Yue took them into the space.
Murong Li then took out the map and looked at the route to Qingniu Pass. He pointed at the map and said, "Yuer, how about we take this route?"
The roads he pointed to were all mountain roads, the kind with few people, which was very suitable for him to use his lightness skills to travel.
"Okay, let's go now."
"good."
Murong Li nodded and let Su Yue lie on his back. He carried her on his back and galloped away with his Qigong skills.
The capital city is nearly two thousand kilometers away from Qingniu Pass. With Murong Li's lightness skills, he can get there in four or five days.
In the Qingniu Pass camp, General Wu, who was on duty here, was extremely anxious. He pinched his forehead with his elbows and really wanted to cry. There were originally 100,000 troops in the city, but now only half of them were left, and the rest of the soldiers had all died in battle.
The people in the city were safe and sound and retreated to the rear. Now there are only more than 40,000 soldiers left in Qingniu Pass, struggling to hold on.
What made him devastated was that the food supplies were gone and the soldiers would be out of food tomorrow.
Qingniu Pass suffered from the severe drought in the northwest county and the severe flood in the south of the Yangtze River. There was not much grain in the warehouse. It was burned by spies from the Dongfeng Kingdom, leaving even less food.
However, the battle report was only sent out ten days ago. According to the time, it would take at least a month for the battle report to reach the capital by the time the emperor gathered food and sent troops. What use would it be if it arrived by then?
The soldiers would have starved to death without fighting.
"Report!"
A soldier ran into the tent, his face covered in blood, his body still bleeding from wounds of all sizes. He gasped, "General, the Dongfeng Army is attacking the city again. We can't hold on any longer. General, what should we do?"
"What should we do? Fight. We are soldiers. Our mission is to die on the battlefield and protect the people of Xifeng Country."
General Wu stood up, picked up the long sword from the sword rack, rushed out of the tent, and quickly ran to the city wall.
"General, the enemy is attacking the city gates, and they can't bear the pressure any more."
As soon as General Wu climbed onto the city wall, Deputy General Wang said anxiously.
General Wu pursed his lips and looked at the huge army of Dongfeng Kingdom downstairs. At this time, the soldiers of Dongfeng Kingdom were carrying a round wood as thick as a person and banging it against the city gate. The heavy city gate began to shake and would soon be broken.
The soldiers of the West Wind Kingdom on the city wall kept shooting arrows down, but the soldiers of the East Feng Kingdom were not afraid of death. They ignored the arrows shot from the city wall and kept hitting the city gate.
