[Chapter 194 Chapter 194 Prelude to the End of the Plane]
Xu Wenzhang was stabbed on his right shoulder, so deep that the bone was visible. Although it was not fatal, he almost lost his arm completely.
The blood on his body looked horrible, most of it was splattered when he killed enemies.
"Ah Qing, I, I can do it myself."
When Yan Qing fed the spoon to his mouth, his eyelashes trembled and he was too shy to look up.
"Are you sure you can lift your arm?" Yan Qing raised his eyebrows and looked at him jokingly.
Xu Wenjian obediently put the medicine in his mouth, still not daring to look at her.
How could he dare to let her know that he was remembering the scene in his dream where she fed him medicine through her mouth.
"My brother is also injured and can't lift his arm. You can't be partial to one over the other, little sister." Yan Qiansong's arms were covered with many circles of cloth strips and he howled in a pinched throat.
Lian Qiao chased in angrily: "Give me back my fine cloth!"
Yan Qiansong hugged his arms: "Why can't I use it if I'm injured?"
"Your injury is not even one thousandth of Brother Xu's. Why do you need to waste so much cloth?" Lian Qiao retorted with red eyes.
He curled his lips: "You girl, isn't it just a bit of cloth?"
Lian Qiao burst into tears: "It's not just a matter of a little cloth. There are so many wounded on the battlefield. If it's scarce, it will be fatal."
"Don't cry, I was wrong. Isn't it okay if I was wrong?" Yan Qiansong looked at the little girl crying and felt full of guilt.
Lian Qiao wiped her tears and ran out crying.
Yan Qiansong, who originally wanted to disrupt the world of two between the brat and his sister, pulled off the cloth that was tied around his arms guiltily and chased after the girl with a sense of guilt.
Xu Wenjian was a little worried: "Is she okay?"
"The pressure is a bit too much, it would be good to let her release it." Yan Qing sighed sadly.
This girl has seen separation of life and death before.
However, death on the battlefield was even more cruel. The soldier who had teased her the day before was carried back the next day with her intestines hanging out.
Those bloody scenes, intertwined with the guilt of being unable to save the patients, tortured even the military doctors who had experienced many storms and waves to exhaustion.
What's more, she is a teenage girl.
Every battle is built with the flesh and blood of soldiers to protect the peace of the country and the stability of the people.
In exchange for the deal with Helian Muye, she wanted a cessation of hostilities between the two countries within a hundred years.
For now, the purpose is to minimize the risk of the Yan family army being attacked from all sides.
How to recuperate and how to enrich the people and strengthen the country are things to consider later.
After Tuoba Qiu's death, the people of Lujiang City on the border of You State took the initiative to welcome the Yan family army into the city.
This city was breached in the Battle of Xianhuang Valley. The State of You proposed peace talks, and the court ordered the city to be withdrawn. Only then did Yan Wanshan lead his men back to defend the city.
During the time the Yan family army was stationed there, they did not harm any civilians, nor did they commit acts of burning, killing or looting. They focused on living in harmony.
After experiencing the destruction caused by Tuoba Qiu's forced grain collection, the people placed their hopes for survival on the friendly soldiers of Dayan.
Yan Qing rode on his horse, watching the people lining the streets to welcome him, and teasingly looked at Helian Muye who was also riding a horse beside him: "The Emperor of You is a failure."
Helian Muye smiled and said, "Yes, that's why we should find someone else to take charge."
He put away his usual frivolous expression and no longer concealed the ambition in his eyes.
At night, Helian Muye's men came.
After changing back into men's clothes, he became tall and slender, with long hair draped behind his head and tied up with a headband, and his bangs on his forehead were slightly naturally curled.
The eyebrows are straight, the eyes are clear, the nose is straight and the lips are thin.
Her cold and pale face revealed a natural laziness, giving her a sense of fragility like a sick beauty.
Yan Qing was stunned when he saw him like this.
He smiled, his peach blossom eyes shining softly: "Are you stunned?"
"I'm just not used to it." Yan Qing shrugged and looked at the people behind him.
Helian Muye frowned, seeming a little disappointed.
When he raised his head, he looked at her seriously and said bluntly: "My left and right arms are dead. In order to turn the tables, my second brother has received orders from the emperor and come here in person."
"There is no one in the court right now. This is my chance."
"And I need a military advisor."
He extended an invitation to her.
Yan Qing did not refuse.
The struggle between the Yan imperial power and the aristocratic families has reached a fever pitch, and the borderland has temporarily become a peaceful place unaffected by the smoke of war.
No matter whether the Second Prince of You Kingdom is in alliance with the Dog Emperor or the aristocratic family, he is an enemy that she must treat with caution.
Only by using the opponent's force could she find a high ground to overlook the battle situation in the fight between several parties.
From the very beginning, Lanyu City was just a temporary fortress in her plan.
As long as the war between Chen Yanshu and the aristocratic families comes to an end, no matter who wins or loses, He Chong (the leader of Qinglongzhai), who is under the banner of the former subordinates of King Runan, will rise up in Pingnan.
The Yan family army could then lead troops directly into the capital in the name of rescuing the emperor.
To suppress the rebels, to purge the imperial court, and to have a legitimate reason.
Yan Qing found the main account and asked his father to summon all the generals.
He only told them to focus on building fortifications, defending the city and protecting the people and not to meet the enemy.
"We have won several battles in a row. This is a great opportunity to take advantage of the victory and chase the enemy north. How can we just defend the city and let him bark wildly?" A general stood up angrily.
I just think that the best thing they should do is to kill him while he is sick.
Zhang Hanzhong pulled him to his seat and shook his round fist: "Listen to the military advisor! Don't force me to beat you!"
Yan Wanshan stroked his beard and asked with a smile, "What's your opinion, military advisor?"
Yan Qing said sternly, "The army is running out of food and grass, but there is no news from the court. What do you think?"
He almost said directly that the emperor wanted to abandon the Yan family army.
As a result, this group of grown men were anxiously wondering if something big had happened in the palace and whether they should rush back to protect their master.
Seeing Yan Wanshan also looked worried.
Yan Qing sighed, feeling helpless and emotional.
The soldiers guarding the border died on their horses' hides, all for the sake of their belief in loyalty to the emperor and patriotism.
These pure-minded people never thought that the emperor, to whom they were wholeheartedly loyal, would want to trap them to death out of fear.
"Generals, please remember that you are not allowed to return to the capital without an imperial edict." Her face was gloomy. "All we can do is to raise food and station troops to guard the border for the people of Dayan."
Back to the topic, she looked at the hanging map and pointed out several key points of defense.
"Then we're not going to care about the Green River City we captured?" someone asked.
Yan Qing frowned and closed his eyes: "Lanyu City is the top priority."
Now is not the time to expand new territory.
She would not ignore the fact that the people of Green River City were not from Dayan because of their enthusiasm.
Those who are not of my race must have different hearts.
It's never wrong to remain vigilant.
When she was about to leave with Helian Muye, Xu Wenjian, who had not fully recovered from his injuries, chased her out and said, "I am Aqing's personal bodyguard, and I have the responsibility to protect Aqing."
"Your injuries have not healed yet..." Yan Qing spoke hesitantly.
After being rejected, Xu Wenzhang looked hurt: "I won't drag Ah Qing down."
How could he let her go into such a dangerous place alone?
Seeing Yan Qing's concerns, Helian Muye chuckled: "People from this palace can help you change your appearance."
Xu Wenzhang looked at him gratefully and reluctantly gave him a good guy card in his heart.
Yan Qing looked deeply, "There are so many talented people around His Highness the Ninth Prince."
"Just preparing for a rainy day." Helian Muye raised his eyes, "Aren't you afraid that I will attack you?"
Yan Qing said calmly: "With the Ninth Prince as my backup, why should I be afraid?"
The poison in his body has not yet been cured.
Helian Muye pretended to be disappointed and covered his face: "How cruel! You even didn't let go of a beautiful man like me."
Considering that Xu Wenjian had just spoken up for him, Xu Wenjian rarely refrained from making sarcastic remarks like he did in the past.
Several people set off together and headed towards the imperial capital of You Kingdom.
"My dear, don't worry, the baby will be fine." Yan Wanshan hugged his wife to comfort her.
Yan Qiansong touched his chin and said, "Dad, why did you say that my younger sister went to You Country to help Helian Muye plan?"
He seemed to smell something unusual.
My little sister must be hiding something from them.
Yan Wanshan's eyes sparkled with tears: "Why else? Of course it's for the peace between the two countries!"
Zhang Wanqing didn't care about her daughter and looked up at her husband. The muscles on the side of her face trembled.
"My little sister is so great." Yan Qiansong sighed.
Zhang Wanqing tightened her grip on the handkerchief, and her mouth was twitching uncontrollably.
Forget it, fools have good luck.
