Chapter 324 Betrayed the General
Qin Wangchuan was shocked.
He was only away from the military camp for two or three days. What exactly happened?
Liu'er was even more shocked.
Qingqing and the others are amazing! How did they do it?
But right now, there are still far more people here than there. What should we do?
"General, do you still have eyes for us brothers who have risked our lives with you?" the lieutenant asked hoarsely.
Inadvertently, I saw the cold look in Liu'er's eyes as she looked at Qin Wangchuan.
He was stunned.
Nearly 20,000 people all looked at Qin Wangchuan, their eyes seemingly filled with disappointment and disheartening.
Looking at the situation before him, Qin Wangchuan made a decision without any hesitation.
He dismounted, carrying Liu'er in his arms.
"Qingran, just bear with me a little longer, I'll be there soon."
Are you going to abandon me?
"Qingran, I am the general, and I cannot abandon my soldiers."
Liu'er smiled sadly: "I understand. Even if I am a precious plaything, I still have a price. Obviously, my price is lower than that of your army."
Ironically, she had actually felt guilty towards him these past few days.
If he were a general protecting the country, she would rather commit suicide than be a burden to him.
But he wasn't.
He was disloyal to the emperor, unpatriotic, and incapable of protecting the people.
He was only after power.
When it comes to making a choice, I will abandon her without hesitation, without even agonizing over it.
Qin Wangchuan didn't say anything more, and called two people over to guard Liu Qingran.
Then, I walked to the front of the line.
The army's morale was instantly boosted.
One man can hold the pass against ten thousand; that's the saying that describes their great general!
With the great general present, they could wipe out the enemy in no time.
"Eleven thousand men? Very well, this general will kill five thousand!"
The lieutenant's expression softened, and he shouted to his men, "Go and fetch the general's armor!"
Qin Wangchuan glanced at his deputy: "Your injury seems quite serious. Don't go on the field. This rabble is nothing to fear."
"Yes, General!"
opposite.
Lu Qingqing and the others actually did not want to fight, because once they did, their disadvantages would become apparent.
The enemy will soon discover that only the first thousand men are elite soldiers who have fought in battle.
With such a small number of people to begin with, they'll just get crushed by others.
They stood there, still trying to buy as much time as possible and prevent them from slaughtering civilians.
“General Qin—” Fu Leng called out.
"Today we are only trying to protect ourselves. If you insist on fighting us, there will be very few of us left. It will be difficult to explain when we return to the capital."
"How about we call it quits and you leave Ming'an County?"
After he finished speaking, they saw Qin Wangchuan put on his armor.
"Damn, does he really love killing people that much? This madman!"
"Girl, you should go to the rear; the battle is about to begin."
Lu Qingqing nodded, "First, find two people to go to the other side and rescue Liu'er."
The war is about to begin. Even if the enemy is just an ordinary soldier, he is an experienced killer who has been on the battlefield.
Unlike these hastily assembled soldiers.
Looking at these young faces, Lu Qingqing couldn't help but want to cry.
Of these 1,000 people, how many will be left in the end?
Or, all of us will cease to exist.
The entire city of Ming'an will be slaughtered.
If only she knew how to make explosives, if only they had collected more poisonous herbs...
If only Ji Ruyan could have arrived earlier...
“Young lady, please be prepared. If things come to this… I will not fight to the death; I will take you away.”
"This is a death order issued by the young master."
The afterglow of spring shines on the ancient, weathered city gate.
Mo Lang's profile was sculpted with a knife and axe, cold and desolate as if devoid of any warmth.
The same thing was true on everyone else's faces.
Lu Qingqing knew that they weren't afraid of death.
They were afraid that even if they fought to the very end, they still wouldn't be able to protect the people.
"Okay, I will." Lu Qingqing wasn't afraid of death.
Her death here would be meaningless except for adding another life to the list.
And since she's alive, she can still do so much more.
So if it really comes to that, she will leave.
"Girl, hurry to the back!"
War is about to begin.
Qin Wangchuan raised his hand.
"Husband." The woman's voice was so weak it seemed to be fading away.
She staggered forward, her face already turning black.
Qin Wangchuan's hand trembled slightly.
My heart was aching so badly it felt like it was being torn apart.
"My husband, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for you to come back. Don't forget to bring my body... home."
Liu'er gazed at Qin Wangchuan with deep affection and painstakingly adjusted his helmet and hat.
She tiptoed and kissed him on the lips.
Qin Wangchuan froze.
She had never been so bold before.
Also, the way she looked at him just now... it had been a very, very long time since I'd seen that look.
She forgot when it started, but her joy and longing for him gradually faded away.
Therefore, he became even more domineering in controlling everything about her.
She became so obedient that she could only depend on him.
But no one knew that what he actually wanted was the original Liu Qingran, the Liu Qingran who would be happy to see him, whose eyes would be filled with starlight, and who regarded him as her heaven.
At that moment, he almost wanted to abandon everything and take her away.
His mouth was instantly filled with bitterness when she spat out another mouthful of blood.
Then she was pulled backward and almost lost her balance and fell to the ground.
"General, the blood is black; it's poisonous!"
The lieutenant quickly wiped Qin Wangchuan's mouth.
They brought him a water bottle to rinse his mouth.
The blood was even blacker than before, so black that it made Qin Wangchuan's heart ache even more.
He pushed aside the lieutenant and stared at him coldly.
Order: "Take the lady to a doctor. If she dies, you die!"
Then, not daring to look at Liu Qingran again, he shouted:
"kill---"
The sounds of fighting erupted instantly.
Blood-red sunset, dust flying everywhere.
Swords clashed, and bodies fell as they moved through the air.
Liu'er secretly took out the antidote from her bosom and stuffed it into her mouth.
She carries the poison given to her by Lu Qingqing, who instructed her to use it only for self-defense and not on Qin Wangchuan, as she did not want her to take any risks.
Just make sure you stay alive.
But how could she do nothing?
A few days ago, she ate a little bit and deliberately cut her finger, and Qin Wangchuan fell for it.
But he then spat it out, presumably because the little medicine on his lips and tongue was too little to be effective.
She just finished taking the whole bottle of medicine!
He didn't rinse his mouth; will it flare up this time...?
"Liu Qingran, you did that on purpose, didn't you?"
Suddenly, the deputy general's sinister voice echoed in my ears.
"Your appearance in Ming'an County was part of a conspiracy. You have already betrayed the general, haven't you?"
He grabbed Liu'er, his eyes filled with cruel killing intent.
"What are you doing? Let me go!"
"The general asked me to take you to a doctor! Madam, I'll take you there now."
