Chapter 147 Attack
A few days later, when the army was deployed, Bai Ming explained the battle plan to them in detail, and Gu Jue just listened quietly.
He had been very quiet these days.
But the less he said, the more Mu Bailinfeng felt bad.
Bai Ming pointed to the topographic map and assigned them tasks. After the meeting, Gu Jue left the military tent in silence and stood on a small hill behind the military camp.
It was also late at night, with bright stars hanging in the sky and a bright moon in the sky, which was very beautiful.
He was inevitably a little lonely standing there alone, and someone carefully climbed up the slope behind and stood beside Gu Jue.
It was Mu Bailinfeng.
He hesitated for a long time, making small movements all the time, but he couldn't utter a word.
Gu Jue couldn't help but move his gaze from the night sky to Mu Bailinfeng.
"What are you doing?"
"Have you been in a bad mood these days?"
"No."
Gu Jue denied decisively, and Mu Bailinfeng thought he was saying one thing and thinking another.
"I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have said that about Yu Chi, I apologize to you, I'm sorry..."
"No."
He was interrupted by Gu Jue before he finished speaking, and he looked up and saw Gu Jue's clear eyes, shining brightly under the moonlight and stars.
He said.
"You don't know Yu Chi's past, so you feel that way. I don't blame you."
Actually, he didn't know much about Yu Chi. He almost knew everything about Yu Chi's past from Yu Chi's mouth, or from Lu Qingmian and Bai Ming.
When Yu Chi was in pain and suffering, he was not there.
When Yu Chi got better, he appeared.
He felt as if he had arrived at Yu Chi's side when Yu Chi had gone through all the hardships and finally began to live smoothly and happily.
It was as if he was just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of his labor.
"You can't think like that."
Mu Bailinfeng's voice interrupted Gu Jue's thoughts, and he was shocked to realize that he had spoken out all his thoughts just now, and Mu Bailinfeng heard them.
"Why don't you understand Yu Chi? I think you know him well, and you think you can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor. Have you ever asked Yu Chi for his opinion?"
Then he realized something and denied what he said.
"Oh, you've been on the battlefield for so long, and it seems you didn't have a chance to ask him?"
"How long have we been here?"
Gu Jue suddenly changed the question.
Mu Bailinfeng thought about it.
"I forgot. Why are you asking?"
They had never been to the battlefield. Every day here was almost the same: drills, deployments, battle plans, fighting, killing...
This was the place closest to death. He didn't remember the days, so he forgot how long he had been here.
"I missed him."
Gu Jue's voice echoed in the night, a little cold. A hand patted his shoulder. He turned around and saw Bai Ming.
Bai Ming put one hand on his shoulder and the other on Mu Bailinfeng's shoulder, looking at the stars in the night and said.
"You've been here for nearly a month."
"Only one month."
Gu Jue murmured in a low voice.
It was only one month, but he felt that a long time had passed.
"But there is good news."
Bai Ming turned his gaze to Mu Bailinfeng.
"Your Majesty has built the body of your beloved. Now you can go back when he returns to the battlefield."
"When will he come back?"
"Tomorrow night."
Gu Jue heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Bai Ming's answer. There was no news from A Niang and the others, and now Mu Bailinfeng's matter was settled.
He could go find Yu Chi when Huang Ji returned.
Thinking of this, he turned and walked down the hillside.
Bai Ming asked him.
"Where are you going?"
Gu Jue waved his hand without turning his head.
"To sleep."
Bai Ming and Mu Bailinfeng looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
Gu Jue packed up and lay on the bed. He closed his eyes but couldn't fall asleep, so he could only toss and turn in bed.
After a while, he opened his eyes, looked at the top of the military tent and breathed a sigh of relief.
Maybe he was too excited, so he had no sleepiness at all.
Thinking of this, he got out of bed again, opened the tent door and walked out, bumping into Bai Ming who was patrolling.
Bai Ming was stunned at first, then laughed.
"Aren't you going to sleep?"
Gu Jue turned his head away.
"I can't sleep."
Bai Ming raised his hand to signal the people following him to leave, then took two steps to Gu Jue's side and invited him to walk with him. Anyway, he was not sleepy, so Gu Jue agreed.
"Actually, I can understand you. When Ah Mian first appeared in the demon world, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep. I thought we would never see each other again in this life, but God gave me such a big surprise."
When he was just rescued by Huang Ji, Huang Ji explained to him the reason why he drifted to the demon clan. At first, he also thought about whether Lu Qingmian would be the same as him. He
would also drift to the demon clan.
But Huang Ji told him that it was almost impossible, because they came from another world. It is very difficult for the souls of another world to drift to the demon world.
Bai Ming is already very lucky. If you want a second person to be like Bai Ming, it is really difficult.
After all, there are so many things in the world, how could it be such a coincidence that they just happened to float together.
But the fact proved that it was just such a coincidence that Lu Qingmian came to the demon clan in the world where Bai Ming was.
Because he had never held out any hope since he heard Huang Ji's words, so the joy in his heart the moment Lu Qingmian appeared was indescribable.
At that time, he was the same as
Gu Jue is now, excited and unable to sleep. In fact, if Gu Jue were to ask, he couldn't explain why. When he left home, he didn't think about his sister so much.
He might not go home once a year, so why did he think about it so much when he came to Yu Chi?
He and Bai Ming chatted until the early morning, and after the dew in the air became thicker, they said goodbye and returned to their respective tents.
Gu Jue wrapped himself tightly in the quilt and forced himself to sleep.
He thought that as long as he woke up, half of the time would have passed, and he would be able to see Yu Chi.
On the second day, the Xiyan army assembled and marched towards Dongxu. Bai Ming led the army to fight, and Mu Bailinfeng was ordered to lead troops to deliver food and grass.
Gu Jue led another team to attack from the left.
Another general led troops to attack from the right, trying to form a circle to trap Xiyan to death. If successful, Xiyan would be trapped in a jar.
The plan went smoothly, but the left side led by Gu Jue encountered a surprise attack.
In the chaotic fight, Gu Jue saw the leader of the Xiyan surprise attack team.
It was the little prince of Xiyan.
They made eye contact with the thousands of troops.
Gu Jue's eyes were cold, flashing with bloodthirsty light.
The little prince had a playful look on his face, as if he was determined to win.
Gu Jue wiped the blood from the corner of his lips with his thumb, and swung the Immortal Sword without even looking, killing a Xiyan soldier who attacked from behind.
They were already very close to Bai Ming.
But there were not many people left around him. The Xiyan army formed a closed loop, surrounding the dozen or so Dongxu soldiers left by Gu Jue.
At some point, the little prince of Xiyan came to Gu Jue. He rode on a horse and looked down at Gu Jue from top to bottom.
"Now, you are the turtle in the jar, and I am the Xiyan surprise soldier. Do you have a surprise soldier?"
He guessed Bai Ming's tactics.
It must be said that this little prince of Xiyan is indeed a difficult opponent, but I don't know why he is not reused.
Gu Jue did not answer, but raised the sword in his hand to express his thoughts with action.
The young prince of Xiyan smiled and raised his hand, and the Xiyan army attacked Gu Jue and his men. The young prince glanced at Gu Jue with contempt for the last time, turned around and rode away.
After a long fight, Gu Jue and the people around him were exhausted and could not hold on any longer.
There was the sound of a sword breaking through the air, followed by the roar of Mu Bailin, who had just brought back the grain troops and returned to the battlefield.
"Gu Jue!"
Gu Jue turned around and widened his eyes. A flying sword was approaching his head.
