Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1070 Female Hero
Xiao Yuansui said, "They said that when Liang Shide asked Shan Shiyu to guard Hulao Pass, he didn't give him much food and grass. When he was captured, he only had less than five days' worth of food and grass left."

Hua Ziying was a little surprised: "So little?"

Xiao Yuansui sneered, and saw through Liang Shide's mentality of using and guarding against Shan Shiyu, and then said: "Although Yuwen Ye failed to completely defeat the troops over there, he also defeated a lot of them, plus the troops he and his brother brought..."

Hua Ziying immediately said, "I'm afraid they don't have enough food and grass."

He paused, as if thinking of something, and said, "No wonder they went to the north bank to herd horses."

At this point, the two looked at each other again, with a sharp light flashing in their eyes. Hua Ziying subconsciously lowered his voice: "Brother, then, should we take this opportunity to send troops?"

Xiao Yuansui thought for a moment and said, "Since I'm here, it won't be in vain."

As he spoke, he reached out and flipped open the map on the table. Looking at the Hulao Pass that he had stared at countless times, as if he was about to stare a hole through it, he said solemnly, "Pass the order down, have all the generals come to the tent and listen to my orders!"

"Yes!"

Early the next morning before dawn, someone came to Yuwen Ye's tent to report - Xiao Yuansui's troops had set out and were ready to cross the Sishui River!
Upon hearing the news, Yuwen Ye, who had been awake all night and barely closed his eyes for a while before lying down in his clothes at dawn, immediately opened his eyes wide. At the same time, Shentu Tai and several other deputy generals also walked into his tent and said, "Your Highness!"

Yuwen Ye asked: "Are they really coming?"

Shentutai nodded, and said with a heavy breath: "I didn't expect them to be so fast."

Yuwen Ye frowned and was silent for a moment before he stood up immediately: "Pass the order down, prepare to fight!"

As a result, Hulao Pass, which had just awakened with the rising sun, immediately woke up, and the soldiers on the city wall were even more nervous and alert, watching a long black snake slowly winding forward from where the sun had just risen, wading across the Sishui River. The fluttering flags were clearly visible in the increasingly bright sunlight, and the word "stone" jumped into their eyes.

At this time, Yuwen Ye walked up to the city wall.

He was not wearing full armor, but came in ordinary clothes. When he saw the flags below and the queues lined up in front of the pass, a faint smile appeared in his eyes.

He asked, "Stone?"

"Shi Yutao,"

Shentu Tai's voice sounded behind him. He slowly walked to Yuwen Ye's side, looked at the battle array in front of him, and slowly said, "Before Liang Shide swept across Hebei, there was only one place he didn't take, and that was Wazhou."

Yuwen Ye asked: "Wazhou, Shi Yunyu?"

Shen Tutai said: "Yes, the two generals under his command are also his son and daughter. They are highly skilled in martial arts and wise in military tactics. Even Liang Shide finds them difficult to deal with."

Yuwen Ye said: "I only know that his son is called Shi Yutao, who is good at using the axe--"

As they talked, the two men's gazes were like eagles flying in the sky. Although they were so far away, they could clearly see the most eye-catching young general in a white helmet in the army formation in front of them. He was holding a Xuanhua axe in his hand. The axe handle was about three feet long and the axe was huge, almost as big as two human heads. Such a weapon gave people a great sense of oppression just by looking at it, not to mention using it.

Shentu Tai whispered, "Your Highness, don't look down on women." Yuwen Ye turned his head to look at him, and Shentu Tai said, "Wazhou is famous for strong and fierce women. Oh, even my fifth sister is from Wazhou."

When mentioning Liang Youying, Yuwen Ye's expression slightly froze.

He was silent for a moment, then asked, "Who is Shi Yunyu's daughter?"

Shentu Tai said: "This woman's name is Shi Yuxin. I have never met her, but I heard that she is also a remarkable person. Liang Shide failed to capture Wazhou even with the combined strength of Hebei, and several of his generals were injured by her."

"Oh……"

Yuwen Ye raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "It seems that he is a powerful person."

Shentu Tai said: "Yes."

Yuwen Ye was silent for a moment, then suddenly turned his head to look at him. Shentu Tai was a little surprised by his sudden gaze, and subconsciously avoided him for a moment with his eyes flickering. Yuwen Ye looked at his rare shy expression, and said with a half-smile, "It's rare to hear you praise someone as 'incredible', and she's 'incredible' on the battlefield, and she's a woman."

Shen Tutai forced a smile and said, "If the battle record I heard before is true, then she is really amazing. I will never look down on her just because her opponent is a woman."

Yuwen Ye nodded and said, "That's true."

Shentu Tai seemed to be afraid that he would say something else, so he continued, "Later, Liang Shide went south to seize Luoyang, and then he settled there, relaxing his control over Hebei. The situation there became chaotic again, and Shi Yunyu took the opportunity to recover a large area of ​​lost territory, and many forces also rose up in other places, but——"

Yuwen Ye said: "However, now they are with Xiao Yuansui, which means that Xiao Yuansui has taken them down."

Shentu Tai nodded slightly.

Thinking of this, the two men felt even more heavy-hearted. In just a few months, they were able to sweep across Hebei, capture Wazhou, which even Liang Shide could not touch, and let Shi Yutao serve under him. This showed Xiao Yuansui's ability in fighting and his strategic planning.

Yuwen Ye said slowly, "Wazhou has produced a heroine, which is exactly what Nong Wa meant. But..." As he spoke, he took another step forward, looked at the army formation that was gradually forming neatly in front of him, and slowly frowned, "Why don't I see the heroine you mentioned?"

Shentu Tai also frowned and said nothing.

In fact, when he mentioned Shi Yuxin just now, his eyes were also searching, wanting to see the independent female hero in Hebei, but after searching for a while, he did not find any female general in the crowd.

Could it be that Shi Yuxin was not among the troops sent out this time?
He thought for a moment and said, "There are only a few hundred of them crossing the river this time. They probably just came to test our strength. That's why Shi Yuxin didn't come out?"

Yuwen Ye glanced at him and said nothing, but the haze that had been accumulating in the depths of his eyes for several days seemed to be even heavier.

Soon, the army in front had lined up neatly. A noisy sound came from the wind. Several soldiers ran up from below and said to Yuwen Ye: "Your Highness, they are calling for a fight."

Yuwen Ye looked down, then waved his hand gently.

Immediately, the gate of Hulao Pass slowly opened, and as a gust of wind suddenly rushed out from the open gate, a group of people and horses slowly walked out of Hulao Pass and lined up against Shi Yutao's troops.
