Chapter 343 Return to the Wasteland



Ning Xi'er disappeared from the military camp, summoned a carriage from her spatial storage, stored several carts of grain, covered them with felt, and parked them not far from the military camp.

Back at the military camp, he appeared alongside Ning Xu, leading twenty soldiers to the carriage stop. They then drove the carriage towards the village...

Not to mention the villagers who had originally gathered at the entrance of the military camp, their eyes practically lit up with greed when they saw the grain spilling from the cart...

Even the twenty soldiers driving the carriage had red eyes.

They are desperately short of food!

The grain was properly stored, and the soldiers were asked to keep it safe. Ning Xu helped the village chief by going door-to-door to persuade the villagers to donate.

The easygoing villagers helped spread the word, and coupled with the recent disturbances caused by the Jin state...

Leaving the village is almost the villagers' default retreat...

But things are much better now.

General Ning not only arranged for grain, but also gave the village the carts used to transport it...

For the convenience of the elderly and young children during the journey...

At the village chief's call, the villagers worked through the night to clean up...

After convincing everyone, Ning Xu stood next to Ning Xi'er. Upon hearing the next piece of news, Ning Xi'er was furious!

During the three days Ning Xi'er was away, the court considered the situation in Yan and Jin, and feared that her elder brother would openly rebel, so they dared not openly dismiss her elder brother Ning Che from his military post...

Seeing that even cutting off supplies couldn't force his elder brother to return to the capital, he issued an edict to his deputy general, ordering the return of 40,000 troops for inspection...

"fool!"

Ning Xi'er was so angry that she couldn't speak and her whole body was trembling.

If she was this angry, one can only imagine how her older brothers felt when they received the news!

The Crown Prince doesn't lack 40,000 troops; the Imperial Guards are entirely under his control...

Moreover, the Crown Prince's maternal grandfather, the Grand General Protector of the Nation, openly controls tens of thousands of soldiers, not counting the personal guards and Crown Prince's personal guards they privately maintain!

Knowing full well that the border between Yan and Jin was weakening, they still transferred 40,000 troops!

It's not stupidity!

It's just bad!

Even if Ningyuan loses a few cities, it will still starve its elder brother to death!

Even if the eldest brother could fight against overwhelming odds, without supplies, he would eventually be worn down and die...

They could also use their defeat as a pretext to punish their elder brothers!

"Where are the provisions? The troops were taken away, were they given provisions?"

Ning Xi'er's eyes sharpened as she asked her second brother beside her.

Ning Xu sighed and shook his head, which made him even more indignant. He felt that his elder brother's insistence was not worth it!

"Second brother, don't worry! I'm here!"

Ning Xi'er's voice was firm.

Ning Xi'er left Ning Xu and the soldiers in the village and instructed them to escort them for a while, away from the Jin border, before returning.

This period of time is enough for Ning Xi'er to return to the desolate realm.

The situation changes, but the only constant is the change itself.

Although the situation was far different from what Ning Xi'er had expected...

Fortunately, both she and Xie Zhun were able to react in time.

Piloting a helicopter, we flew back to the wilderness...

Upon suddenly seeing the person who had left half a day ago, Xie Zhun's joy was visibly evident...

But Ning Xi'er's next words immediately enraged everyone in the tent!

Ning Xi'er informed them that the Crown Prince had ordered the return of 40,000 soldiers from the northern border to the capital...

"Bang!"

Zheng Ye slammed his fist on the table, feeling no pain whatsoever.

Everyone present, except for Xie Zhun and Wei Xunfang, was indignant.

For Ning Che and Ning Xu, for the residents of the northern border and surrounding areas, and even more so for the Great Yan!

Xie Zhun's gaze turned slightly cold, and Ning Xi'er could now sense the change in Xie Zhun's emotions.

His outward anger wasn't actually that intense.

And yet, this cold expression and emotionless eyes actually suggest...

Anyone who angers him will suffer a terrible death!

Xie Zhun's thin lips curled slightly, his cold smile sending chills down one's spine.

"There are many paths to survival, but he refuses to take them. Well then, I'll see him off!"

Those present were all people Xie Zhun trusted implicitly; there was no need for secrecy...

"Senior brother, send two hundred elite troops to Xuanfeng..."

Ning Xi'er seemed to sense it, and Xie Zhun accepted the arrangement.

"Among these elites are highly skilled individuals who are carefully cultivated and adept at disguise and disguise..."

A cold smile crept across Xie Zhun's lips. Since troops had been mobilized back to the capital...

Then I'll see you off!

You asked for this!
