Chapter 288 Actual Combat
Of course, Yu Mengqing herself also wanted to go on the expedition.
But at the same time, she also knew that Jing Keqing would not go to the battle.
So far, she doesn't know Jing Keqing's strength, but she has a rough estimate.
In terms of martial arts, he should be on par with me.
Once you take the lead in the battle, you will definitely get tired.
You know, this war is a long-term war.
Only by persevering to the end will you be the winner.
In order to persevere to the end, in addition to martial arts, you also need endurance.
This is also a major tactic on the battlefield.
Jing Keqing also noticed this, so he chose to go into battle later. He wanted to catch himself off guard.
But now it seems that the only ones who can deal with him are myself or Chu Shiheng.
If Chu Shiheng goes to war, then he must stay.
Otherwise, both of them would most likely lose their lives at Jing Keqing's hands.
The most important thing is that Jing Keqing’s goal is probably to have both of them fight at the same time.
Knowing this, how could Yu Mengqing possibly do as he wished?
"This is the border of Huangning County. It is surrounded by mountains and there are no extra intersections." Xue Zhonggui analyzed.
"Yes, so this battle can be said to be a real fight." Guo Yalun echoed.
Their previous tactics simply didn't work in Huangning County.
In the past, they could divide their forces and attack simultaneously, but now it is obviously not possible.
Because there are simply not enough intersections for them to proceed at the same time.
Looking at the location on the map, Yu Mengqing fell into deep thought.
It has to be said that Huangning County is indeed the most difficult county to attack.
"Why, Mengqing, did you see something?"
Seeing Yu Mengqing staring at the map intently, Guo Peiying couldn't help but ask.
"No!" Yu Mengqing said bluntly.
Hearing this, Guo Peiying immediately became dejected and muttered: "Even you can't do anything, then..."
"Didn't I just say it? Let's fight hard!" Xue Zhonggui, who was standing aside, saw Guo Peiying in a low mood and couldn't help but speak.
After finishing speaking, he seemed to feel that he had said something wrong, and added:
"But don't think too much. Shiheng will go with me tomorrow, so I'm sure everything will be fine."
Sure enough, after hearing this, Guo Peiying said stubbornly: "Who said I was worried about you?"
Xue Zhonggui: “…” It’s really hard to get this woman to admit that she likes me.
However, Xue Zhonggui was not in a hurry, as they would be able to return to the capital soon.
Then he can ask the coal miner to go to Guo's house and ask for her hand in marriage. Then she will probably admit it openly.
Thinking of this, Xue Zhonggui became even more eager to fight.
Only by winning can they return to the capital faster and achieve his own goal.
Whenever he thought of this, Xue Zhonggui became extremely excited.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Chu Shiheng prepared to go into battle.
However, to their surprise, there was no news from the Manjing Kingdom.
"Mengqing, do you think they have any conspiracy?" Guo Peiying asked.
"No, if I'm not mistaken, they probably didn't expect that we would go into battle a day earlier." Yu Mengqing said calmly.
This was what she meant.
On the battlefield, Yu Mengqing has always been unwilling to be the one being attacked.
No matter when, she would be the one to take the initiative to attack.
Only in this way can we have a chance to win.
If someone attacks and you just block, you will never win. Only by taking the initiative can you have the greatest chance of winning.
"When it comes to strategy, we still have to rely on you." Xue Zhonggui said with a smile.
Looking at him, he didn't seem nervous at all about going out on a mission.
"Be careful!" Guo Peiying couldn't help but remind him.
Although I said I didn't care, when the moment really came, I couldn't help but worry.
After he finished speaking, as if he was thinking of something else, he said to Yu Mengqing, "Mengqing, the potion you gave me last time was actually quite useful."
Yu Mengqing glanced at Guo Peiying with a half-smile before asking, "So, what do you want to say?"
"Oh, I just want you to give a bottle to Xue Zhonggui."
After thinking about it, he felt that what he said was too obvious, so he continued:
"Of course, there's also my brother, he needs it there too."
Yu Mengqing: “…” For a moment, she really didn’t know what to say to this woman.
However, when Guo Peiying becomes thick-skinned, no one can match her.
"Hao Mengqing, just give it to them. That can save their lives. You know, the battlefield is dangerous..."
"Peiying, it's okay. Mengqing has already given it to us. Don't worry!"
Guo Peiying: “….” So I was just acting like a clown just now.
He glared at Yu Mengqing fiercely, but ended up meeting her half-smile.
Guo Peiying even wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it.
Seeing this, Guo Yalun on the side also looked at Xue Zhonglan eagerly.
It was clearly written in his eyes: When will you care about me like this?
Yu Mengqing: “…” Why are all of you so shy?
Come to think of it, it makes sense.
After all, this is ancient times, and there is no such thing as a private marriage.
Especially such a big family.
But they don't need to, because in the eyes of the world, they are a perfect match.
When the army returns to the capital, I will come to propose marriage.
Noticing Guo Yalun's gaze, Xue Zhonglan finally plucked up the courage to look up at him.
Only after meeting his eager gaze did she whisper, "Be careful!"
Although her voice was very low, everyone present was a martial arts expert, so they heard her words clearly.
Guo Yalun was very happy to hear such words from Xue Zhonglan.
Knowing that Xue Zhonglan was thin-skinned, Yu Mengqing didn't "tease" her this time.
But no one expected that Xue Zhonglan would end up with Guo Yalun.
I think this is all fate.
But Xue Zhonglan is slow to warm up, so it will not be as easy for Guo Yalun to win her heart as it is for Xue Zhonggui.
Xue Zhonggui, who was standing by, pursed his lips when he saw his sister like that, but didn't say anything. He just glared at Guo Yalun fiercely.
But this one glance was seen by Guo Peiying who was not far away.
"Xue Zhonggui, what do you mean?"
Xue Zhonggui: “…”
Yu Mengqing: "......"
Xue Zhonglan: “…”
Everyone: “…”
But after seeing Guo Peiying's unhappy look, even the "reserved" Xue Zhonggui had to explain in a "humbly" manner.
"I just glanced at your brother casually. If you don't believe me, why don't you ask your brother?"
Not to mention, after Xue Zhonggui said that, Guo Peiying actually looked towards Guo Yalun.
