Zhou Zhiruo just praised Wei Xiangjun, but at this moment, Zhao Linger said, "That's not right."
"We are women, Zhao Min is also a woman. When we are on the march, we will subconsciously keep a distance from men other than you."
"We do this, and Zhao Min should do this even more."
Zhou Zhiruo looked at Zhao Linger in surprise: "Sister, I thought what Sister Xiangjun said made sense just now, but now I think what you said makes even more sense."
Zhao Linger said: "That's how it is."
"With Zhao Min's skills, she is already surrounded by an army of hundreds of thousands. Is it necessary to arrange too many people outside her tent?"
Yang Buhui interrupted and said, "What the Queen said makes sense. Being a woman has many inconveniences. How can Zhao Min sleep peacefully when there are a bunch of men standing outside the tent?"
Zhou Zhiruo nodded and said, "That's true. The more I think about it, the more your words make sense."
"If the four of us were to look for Zhao Min in this way, it would probably be much more convenient."
…
Sure enough, after Zhao Linger and the other three had been spying on Zhao Min's army for nearly half an hour, they actually discovered a strange place.
The place was bare, with only a small tent. There was not a single Yuan soldier guarding the entrance of the tent.
However, ten feet away from the tent, there were hundreds of Yuan soldiers patrolling back and forth.
The patrolling Yuan soldiers were all holding scimitars and carrying crossbows on their shoulders. One look at them revealed their extraordinary fighting power.
Zhao Linger and others almost held their breath.
Because they were only thirty-four feet away from the hundreds of Yuan soldiers with extraordinary combat power.
If it hadn't been dark, they would never have dared to get so close.
But at this moment, the curtain of the tent was suddenly lifted.
Although the distance was far, one could still get a general idea of what was going on inside the tent.
A bonfire had already been lit in the tent.
And beside the campfire, there were two busy figures.
This is where Zhao Min rests, and she is roasting a leg of lamb by the campfire.
"Zhao Min!" Zhou Zhiruo said in a low voice.
Zhao Linger nodded: "Yes, I also think that person is Zhao Min, but who is the person next to her?"
As soon as Zhao Linger finished saying this, she realized something was wrong: "No, it's not two people, it's three people."
"My son is really with Zhao Min."
…
At such a long distance, the most you can do is see the person in the tent, whether he is a boy or a girl, but Xiao Yuxiao is only two years old after all.
The naughty child was running around the campfire.
He actually looked very happy.
This small figure made Zhao Linger immediately conclude that it must be her own son.
Zhou Zhiruo lowered her voice and said to Zhao Linger, "Sister, the distance is at most forty feet. How about we sisters fight it out?"
Zhao Linger quickly shook her head: "No."
"The hundreds of guards Zhao Min relies on are probably all strong and agile people."
"If we move forward a few more feet at most, we will definitely be discovered. Without a large group of soldiers to hold us back, we will definitely not be able to get close to Zhao Min."
Zhou Zhiruo said: "Then let's go back quickly to find Zhang Wuji, clear out the sentries along the way, and launch a surprise attack with two thousand soldiers. We will definitely be able to get our son back."
"If I'm lucky, I might be able to kill Zhao Min."
Zhao Linger said: "I don't expect to kill Zhao Min. With her skills, if she wants to leave, who in the world can stop her?"
"Let's go back to the young master first. If nothing unexpected happens, we will be able to launch a surprise attack before dawn."
…
Zhao Linger is worthy of being the queen. Even though her son is in Zhao Min's hands and the distance is only a few dozen feet, she can still resist taking action.
After the four of them marked the route, they returned along the same route.
On the way back, the four of them opened up a distance of about a hundred feet between them.
The purpose was to clear out the sentries along the way again and try to ensure that Zhang Wuji's troops would not be exposed too early.
…
Inside Zhao Min's tent, she really had no idea what had just happened.
She tore off a small piece of mutton from the freshly roasted leg of lamb, and then said to Xiao Yuxiao beside her: "Open your mouth, little guy. Not everyone can eat the mutton I roasted."
Xiao Yuxiao also obediently opened her little mouth. After Zhao Min stuffed the small piece of mutton into her mouth, she asked with a smile, "Little guy, is it delicious?"
Xiao Yuxiao also replied with a smile: "It's delicious."
Zhao Min said: "You are a sensible kid, if you dare to say it doesn't taste good, I will chop off your head immediately."
…
An unknown amount of time passed. After the smell of oil smoke dissipated from Zhao Min's tent, she asked Li Yao to lower the curtain outside the tent.
Soon after, the three of them fell asleep on a blanket made of several sheepskins.
…
On the other side, Zhang Wuji and the two thousand soldiers he led were galloping towards where Zhao Min was.
Zhao Linger, who was standing by, was also explaining the formation of Zhao Min's camp to Zhang Wuji.
Zhao Linger said: "Young Master, Zhao Min's own tent is located between the cavalry and the subsequent food and grass."
"We must succeed in one strike. Even if we fail, we must evacuate as soon as possible. If we wait until Zhao Min's cavalry are mounted, even if we only launch a single charge, our two thousand soldiers will be in danger of being wiped out."
Zhang Wuji said: "I know. Before you came back, I had already given orders to the soldiers. As long as I shout 'retreat', no one will dare to fight anymore."
Zhou Zhiruo thought for a moment and reminded: "Why don't we wrap the horse's hooves? This way, the noise we make will be smaller."
Zhang Wuji thought for a moment and said, "No need. The ice and snow have melted long ago and won't make much noise. Besides, even if we cover the horse's hooves, the warhorse under us will probably kick the cloth off after running a hundred feet or so."
"It's a waste of time and not worth the effort."
"All you need to do is remember the approximate location of Zhao Min and her group. We only have one chance, and at most half a quarter of an hour. If we can't get them within half a quarter of an hour, we must evacuate regardless of whether we succeed or not."
"Otherwise, if Zhao Min's army surrounds us, no one will be able to escape."
"No more prolonged fighting, Zhiruo, especially you, do you understand?"
Zhang Wuji had never spoken to his wife so seriously before.
If it were any other time, Zhou Zhiruo would definitely have a big fight with Zhang Wuji if she heard him dare to speak to her in this manner.
But this was a different time, and facing such a harsh tone, Zhou Zhiruo could only say obediently: "I understand, I will be obedient."
