The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 159 The Final Battle Is Near
"hiss……"

Zhao Xuan bit his lower lip tightly, resisting the severe pain and asked the medical officer to take off the pieces of his clothes that had been covered with blood scabs little by little.

The wound was injured by an arrow. At that time, he was only busy directing his troops to retreat, and did not take care of it in time.

After camping at night, I went to the camp to inspect it again, and discussed with other generals for a while before calling the medical officer to treat the wound.

Everyone didn't think it was strange. When they came out to fight, who didn't get hurt?

Before the coach's accident, Zhao Xuan didn't need to go to the front line, so at that time many people thought he was just a noble son who came to dawdle.

It wasn't until this time that they realized that Zhao Xuan looked weak, but he wasn't timid.

Only then did the other generals in the army gradually accept in their hearts that he was a member of the southeast reinforcements.

"Okay, my son, you should rest early, you have to march tomorrow morning."

The old medical officer quickly bandaged him up, and told Zhao Xuan's bodyguards to decoct medicine for him, so as not to cause high fever due to pus from the wound.

Zhao Xuan took the dry food from the guards, and forced himself to swallow those rough pancakes and jerky in one gulp.

He lacks physical strength, if he doesn't eat well, he will not be able to keep up with the troops marching and drag everyone down.

The rich days of lying on the soft mattress in Song Guogong's mansion and eating iced courgettes brought by the fast horses from the Western Regions seem to be far away from him.

Zhao Xuan doesn't think there is any "bitterness" or "tiring" in today's life.After the baptism of life and death fleeing and island life, he felt that there was nothing he couldn't endure.

On the island, Gu Che and Ye Shenyan may seem to have cultivated much more intensively than him, but he has endured no less tests than them.Nie Shen is the strictest master. Once he chooses you, he will not let you have a good time.

The southeast reinforcements were following his plan, and they would retreat as soon as they came into contact with the opponent. They were not interested in fighting, and looked very embarrassed.

Fighting morale is very important.The commander is half dead, the army has been retreating, and the soldiers are very weak.

There are also some passionate young officers who volunteered to fight, but the order from above is very clear, no unauthorized dispatch is allowed, and those who violate the military law will be dealt with!
"Tolerate."

Facing the doubts from his companions and deployment, Zhao Xuan only had one word.

He is waiting for a moment.

Waiting for the rebels who were dazzled by the "victory" to advance along the route he designed, while other reinforcements changed their routes, and several reinforcements gradually formed an encirclement circle, and all the enemies could be taken down.

Moreover, the enemy was just as he had expected.As they continued to penetrate the Central Plains and approach the capital, their supply lines became very long and difficult.

During this period, the rebel army had many bandits and thieves attached to them. Because they could not get supplies, they left the team freely.

Coupled with the non-stop minor harassment of reinforcements from all sides of the imperial court, and frequent sneak attacks on the rebel food transport teams, etc., they were also disturbed.

On the surface, King Cheng's rebels seemed to be approaching, but in fact their strength was gradually weakening.

It seems that they have gradually realized that something is wrong. In the past two days, the speed of progress has slowed down.

Zhao Xuan turned over, his consciousness began to blur, and he was about to fall asleep.Marching day and night is so tiring, there is no chance of insomnia.

Half-dream and half-awake, he vaguely felt that there was a familiar gaze looking at him, looking at him...

Ruochen...

is it you……

我 很想 你.

After Yun Ruochen silently prayed, he turned around and saw Ye Shenyan coming over with a bowl of jujube porridge, and said with a smile, "I just contracted some typhoid fever, it's okay, don't keep feeding me."

Ye Shenyan was very dissatisfied: "Girl, don't understate it so lightly. You have been coughing for two days. You can't just drink medicine. Red dates can nourish Qi, you should eat more."

"I'm going to bed soon, are you trying to feed me into a pig?"

Complaints are complaints, Yun Ruochen obediently took the jujube porridge and ate it.

Ye Shenyan is like a housekeeper.

However, Nie Shen and Gu Che agreed very much with Ye Shenyan's housekeeper attributes. In their view, Yun Ruochen was a nagging girl who liked to push herself.

Yun Ruochen began to miss the little Shenyan who was timid in front of her.

Alas, since when did I change from managing people to being managed?

And there are more and more people who take care of themselves!
Fortunately, I finally found one to manage.

That is her "disciple" Ji Jianing.

Strictly speaking, Ji Jianing is not her disciple.Qimen accepts disciples to go through extremely cumbersome ceremonies, and these ceremonies cannot be simplified and must be strictly implemented.

To complete this whole set of ceremonies, not to mention a lot of energy, it takes a long time, and it often takes several months to complete.

Therefore, it is a very serious and troublesome matter for Qimen to recruit disciples.

But once you become a master and apprentice, you are basically bound together for the rest of your life. If the apprentice betrays the master, no one will sympathize if the master clears the door.Conversely, the master must also teach and care for the apprentice with all his heart. If the apprentice is bullied by outsiders, the master must protect his shortcomings and stand up for him.

In fact, the general Jianghu sects are similar in this respect, but Qimen's execution is stronger.

After traveling together for a while, Ji Jianing finally became less confused, at least she knew what she was going to learn.

Yun Ruochen was very patient with his future heirs - this made Ye Shenyan very unhappy. When the county bishop started by himself, he was taught by force-feeding, and basically let him learn by himself.At that time he was not very literate!

How come this girl Ji, the treatment is completely different.

Fortunately, Ji Jianing was a girl, Ye Shenyan was at most awkward at the beginning, but she got used to it later.If she was a man... Ye Shenyan would seriously consider fighting her one-on-one.

Although the time spent with Yun Ruochen and his party was not very long, the clever Ji Jianing could still tell that they were not bad people, nor did they have any malice towards her.

Uh... Even though that Steward Nie and Mr. Gu were scary when they fought and killed, they usually don't see it at all.

Especially Mr. Gu, probably felt a little guilty for scaring her that day?
She is very kind to her now, and every time she goes ashore for supplies, she asks her what she needs to buy and what delicious food she wants to eat.She didn't dare to talk to him at first, and he didn't get angry, so he bought a lot of candy and snacks for her, saying: "Girls should like these, right?"
When he said this, he laughed and rubbed the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed, looking... stupid.

Ji Jianing bowed her head and accepted his gift, and gradually she was not too afraid of him.

Sometimes when the two met on the deck, he would greet her with a smile.Ji Jianing didn't dare to express anything other than nodding, but...

She felt that Mr. Gu actually looks very handsome when he smiles.

As for the boy named Ye Shenyan, he was not very friendly to her at the beginning, and he looked at her a little strangely.

After a few days, his attitude improved, but it was still far behind Gu Che.

Ji Jianing didn't know why, but there were too many things she didn't know about on this boat, and there was no shortage of this one.

She secretly guessed, these people are all Jianghu people, right?

They are on their way, day and night, where are they going?
Yun Ruochen didn't tell her, but just comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid, you'll be fine if you follow us."

Ji Jianing had no choice but to believe her—in fact, is there a better choice?
But she was a very clever little girl after all.After the initial fear faded and she no longer planned to escape, she would silently analyze her situation and future in her heart.

The future is not in sight right now, but the situation... No matter how you say it, it can't be called "bad".

Eat well, dress well, and don't need her to work. The daily task is to read books.

Starting from the most basic introductory spells, she felt that those things were very easy. Normally, what Yun Ruochen arranged for her to read in one day, she could finish it in two hours.

Yun Ruochen expressed satisfaction with her study progress.Of course, on the other hand, Ye Shenyan could only sulk at being compared to himself—he had studied that for a long time!
"I was young at that time! I couldn't read! She is so old!"

Ye Shenyan complained to Yun Ruochen behind his back, Yun Ruochen just looked at him with a smile and patted his head: "Okay, okay, I didn't say anything about you. Your talent is not in this area."

"Where is that?" Ye Shenyan's voice was still muffled.

"Cooking!"

Yun Ruochen answered naturally.

Hearing the princess's answer, Ye Shenyan became even more depressed... Has he been a cook all his life?
Alas, the life of the cook is the life of the cook.Anyway, the princess likes to eat the most, so he still has a lot of status in the princess's mind, right?

When Ji Jianing began to gradually adapt to the new life and Ye Shenyan succeeded in self-education, worse news came from the battlefield ahead.

King Cheng's army is about to approach the capital!
"What are those reinforcements doing! Are the imperial court's troops all waste?"

Gu Che looked at the military newspaper very angry.

After being a general, he became angry when he saw these "disappointed" troops.If only they were as brave and fearless as his father, it would be a mess!
Yun Ruochen was not angry, let alone anxious.When Gu Che came back to his senses, he felt it was very strange - Yun Ruochen was in a hurry a few days ago, but now he is calm?

"Ache, you still need to increase your knowledge and read military books and history books."

Gu Che rolled his eyes.Here it is again, Yun Ruochen nagging about Dafa, forcing him to study if he has nothing to do.

What does this have to do with reading?

"Prince Cheng's army will not be here for a few days." Yun Ruochen handed the military report back to Nie Shen, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "Staff Nie, what do you think?"

"Yes." Nie Shen nodded: "Their supplies are very tight. The river robbers we encountered a few days ago were also deserters from King Cheng."

"Why? Didn't they win all the way?" Gu Che was puzzled.

"You……"

Yun Ruochen shook his head.

The imperial court's response was so flexible?Some things were beyond her expectation.It seems... the day of the decisive battle is not far away.

Maybe, she can still catch up with the decisive battle!
　Happy Valentine's Day everyone!Lovers get married!
