Chapter 161: Catching a Cold
Not to mention the three moves just now, I didn’t even take one move.
He believed that he had certain abilities in the army, otherwise he would not have been able to become a centurion.
You know, the centurions were also selected through layers of screening.
What's more, the more than a hundred soldiers under his command are all very capable, which is also an important reason why he is well-trained.
And if nothing unexpected happens, he will soon be promoted to a thousand households.
But he didn't expect that he couldn't even take a single move from the woman in front of him, whom he had always looked down upon.
This made him doubt himself a lot. Did he really have this ability?
Having this ability can lead a hundred households
What’s more, he is about to become a thousand households?
Looking at Dalei's expression, Yu Mengqing knew what he was thinking.
"Don't feel inferior. It's normal that you can't take my attack." Yu Mengqing said lightly.
These words were indeed a comfort to Yu Mengqing.
But after seeing Cheng Dalei's speechless expression, I originally planned to let it go.
Just thinking of what he just said, he continued:
"Even though you are a centurion, no matter how capable you are, you must always do one thing: never underestimate the enemy at any time."
"Underestimating the enemy, whether on the battlefield or between you and me, is already a sign of your failure."
Cheng Dalei, who had just stood up: "......"
Is this consolation? Why does it sound like a heavier blow to him?
Although this makes sense, isn’t it too direct?
Even Xue Zhonglan, who was standing by, was left speechless by Yu Mengqing's words.
She was just very curious about the whip that Yu Mengqing used just now. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she seemed to find that her martial arts had improved again.
In fact, Xue Zhonglan was not wrong. Even Yu Mengqing herself didn't know what was going on.
Ever since she gave birth, her martial arts skills seemed to have improved rapidly.
It was because of this that she was so confident in saying that she could defeat Cheng Dalei within three moves.
Who would have thought that this move only took one move.
Even she herself found it incredible.
It seems that she needs to find some time to go into the space and ask Xiao Hei.
Because of this competition, a large number of veterans kept their mouths shut and stopped saying anything.
But many people are still continuing to discuss it.
They began to discuss that although the princess was good at martial arts, being good at martial arts and fighting in battles were two different things.
Being a martial arts expert doesn't necessarily mean you can command an army...
In fact, Yu Mengqing quite agrees with these words. No matter how powerful one's martial arts skills are, one must have the ability to command.
On the battlefield, what matters is teamwork, and Yu Mengqing agrees with this.
No matter how powerful one person's martial arts skills are, it is impossible for him to defeat hundreds of thousands of soldiers at the same time.
So Yu Mengqing didn't take these words to heart.
Because she knew that when she was not on the battlefield, no matter what she said, they would think she was making excuses for herself.
She didn't want to waste her time on these things.
And these all need to be conquered on the battlefield, so Yu Mengqing is not in a hurry.
After resting for just over an hour, they set off again.
The weather is getting colder now, and the closer to the northwest, the colder it gets.
The border was declared a truce because of this, so Yu Mengqing and the others were not in a hurry to travel.
It is also because of the weather that more and more people are catching colds.
"General Yu, according to statistics, there are already tens of thousands of people infected with the cold." The spy reported.
"So many?" Yu Mengqing asked in surprise.
Chu Shiheng had mentioned to her before that many soldiers died from colds every year.
She was mentally prepared, but she didn't expect there would be so many.
You know, although colds are minor illnesses, if they are not treated in time, they may cause death.
Among these people, a large number of them have actually reached a very serious level.
When going on a campaign, there are medicinal materials, but it is impossible to prepare them in such sufficient quantities.
So until the last critical moment, they did not come to report to him.
Yu Mengqing felt that this was a big problem.
As a doctor, she knows very well that diseases should be treated early to save time and effort.
Fortunately, she had prepared the pills in her space early on.
I really have to thank Xiao Hei for his foresight on this point.
"Pass on my order. Rest at the post station for one night today and set off again tomorrow." Yu Mengqing said.
Then he asked Caiyue to make arrangements and gather all the people who were infected with the cold together.
He took out the pills he had prepared long ago from the space and handed them to her, saying:
"You and Caiyun and the others should distribute these pills. The army doesn't need to use the herbs for now."
Caiyue took it and asked in surprise: "Miss, when did you prepare so many pills?"
She has basically been with the young lady all the time, and she really doesn't know when the young lady got so many pills.
When Yu Mengqing heard Caiyue ask this, she was stunned.
These pills were all made by Xiao Hei using a machine in the space.
Of course it is faster to use a machine, but it is not unreasonable for Caiyue to ask this question when tens of thousands of them were suddenly produced.
"Do you think I'm just preparing it now? I've already arranged for people to make it in the military camp long ago."
Yu Mengqing made up an excuse and said.
Hearing this, Caiyue did not doubt him, took the pill, turned around and went to make arrangements.
She was very excited that the young lady would take her on the expedition this time.
In the past, she was just a little maid in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Unexpectedly, she now has the honor to go to war with the young lady.
The most important thing is that the young lady is now a general, so she is the general's capable female guard.
Zeng Zhaoming once said that his current status was the same as when he was with the prince before.
Whenever she thought of this, Caiyue's heart felt like a thousand horses galloping, and she was extremely excited.
When Caixia, Caimeng, Caiyue and others arrived at the cold area, most of the people were already drowsy.
He looked so weak, he didn't look like someone who could go to the battlefield.
However, they were still very confident about their young lady's pills.
So he walked up to these people and said:
"Take one of these pills each and swallow it with water. Barring any unexpected consequences, it will be effective the next day. If it still doesn't work, remember to consult the military doctor or the general tomorrow."
Caiyue repeated Yu Mengqing's words to these people word for word.
"It's just a pill, just take it." Everyone didn't take Caiyun's words too seriously.
They are all experienced veterans.
