Cypress Boat Floating

Chapter 202 Ready to go

"The boy's speed just now was quite fast. It seems that this girl Ye has some skills. Although girl Ye simply used one move to fight back the boy's attack, she was able to react in the first time and used the fastest and simplest method to soften the hardness. Not bad, not bad." Qian Hongzhen and Lu Ci Qiu were squeezed to the back and could only look at Ye Jianqing who was surrounded inside through the crowd. Although Qian Hongzhen still felt a little disgusted with Ye Jianqing, he really had nothing to say about her move just now.

Lu Ci Qiu's eyes were always on Ye Jianqing. He could see that Ye Jianqing was in a very good mood. He was very happy. He had never seen such happiness before. It was a feeling of complete relaxation. Faintly, he felt a little sour.

So jealous.

I'm so jealous of those people who can make her laugh so happily.

But there weren't many opportunities to praise Ye Jianqing in front of others. Seeing Qian Hongzhen taking the initiative to speak, Lu Ci Qiu no longer hid his feelings and started to praise her directly: "Qing'er is very good. If General Qian has a chance to compete with her, it's not certain who will win."

Qian Hongzhen laughed out loud. He was very confident in himself. Although Ye Jianqing was very capable, it would be a bit too arrogant if he thought he could really beat him.

But then again, Ye Jianqing's purpose of going forward this time was very dangerous. He glanced at Lu Ci Qiu and was a little surprised to see that he looked calm: "Your Majesty, are you really willing to let this girl lead the people over like this?"

Lu Ci Qiu sighed falsely, but the smile on his face never faded. It was a smile full of relief and indulgence: "Whether she is relieved or not, my words don't count. She has her own ideas. If she thinks that she can ease the situation by going to Beiguan first, then let her go. Her talent should not be trapped."

Qian Hongzhen choked up, not knowing how to comment on Lu Ciqiu's reaction. He just said silently: "I hope she can give me a surprise."

As Lu Ci Qiu looked over, he saw Ye Jianqing in the middle of the circle. At this moment, she had already demonstrated the third fighting method to the young men present. Although Qian Hongzhen had never seen these attacking moves, he intuitively felt that if they were really used in practice, they would be very effective.

Inexplicably, he also had a little trust in Ye Jianqing, perhaps she could really do it.

"Okay, okay, everyone stand up and straighten up." Seeing that they would be running out of time if they continued like this, and they were afraid they would have to waste the whole day here, Qian Hongzhen quickly clapped his hands and asked everyone to stand up.

Once General Qian spoke, how could anyone not listen? The young men ignored Ye Jianqing and stood up one by one.

Ye Jianqing slowly got up, brushed off the grass debris on her butt, and walked to Qian Hongzhen. She naturally knew what Qian Hongzhen was going to say.

"Everyone has seen Miss Ye's strength just now. If the army continues at its current pace, it will take about half a month to reach the North Gate, so we will select ten people to follow Miss Ye and set off first." After Qian Hongzhen finished speaking, he signaled Ye Jianqing to express his opinion with his eyes.

Ye Jianqing then stepped forward and continued his words, "Ten people, we need people who are good at archery, who can fight, who have brains, and who can follow orders. Who wants to go with me and deal with the obstacles ahead for the army?"

As soon as these words were spoken, murmurs arose from everywhere in the army, and everyone was discussing with the people around them whether or not they should go together.

"Me!" The young man who had just fought with Ye Jianqing took the initiative to stand up: "I, Wang Peng, am willing to follow Miss Ye and clear the way for the army."

Wang Peng was the first to stand up, and then all the people who had already recognized Wang Peng stood up.

"I am willing to follow Miss Ye and clear the way for the army."

"I am willing to follow Miss Ye and clear the way for the army."

"I am willing to follow Miss Ye and clear the way for the army."

"I am willing to follow Miss Ye and clear the way for the army."

"I am willing to follow Miss Ye and clear the way for the army."

Ye Jianqing looked at these sincere people who stood out one by one. It was impossible to say that they were not afraid of the danger ahead at all, but when they heard that this was to ensure that the food and grass could be smoothly delivered to the Flame Army camp, and that this action was for the people of Beiguan, they stood up without hesitation. They put their lives in Ye Jianqing's hands. Ye Jianqing was very happy. She was very happy that there were such people in the army who were dedicated to the country.

"I'm very happy that everyone has this awareness, but I only need ten people, because if you want to continue escorting the food and fodder, your task will be very difficult. The road ahead is dangerous, and you may encounter bandits and people who can ambush and destroy the food and fodder, so it will be even more difficult for those who stay behind."

Looking at the young men who were still standing in front of him, Ye Jianqing didn't know them very well and didn't know how to choose for a moment, so he just chose Wang Peng.

Finally, it was Qian Hongzhen who took charge: "Since everyone is willing to follow Miss Ye, I will choose the person. What do you think, Miss Ye?"

"It would be the best if General Qian is willing to do so. Thank you very much for your help, General Qian." Ye Jianqing naturally agreed. This group of people were trained by Qian Hongzhen when they were in the capital. Qian Hongzhen would naturally be more familiar with them, so it would be best for him to choose them.

Finally, Qian Hongzhen and Ye Jianqing selected another nine people. Arnold was determined to follow Ye Jianqing from the beginning, so he was naturally included.

So, including Ye Jianqing himself, this team, which Ye Jianqing called as a team that will soon become an elite team, has twelve people.

Qian Hongzhen arranged twelve fast horses and gave them some travel expenses and maps to help them with their journey.

"Are you confident?" While others were still preparing, Lu Ci Qiu found an opportunity to get close to Ye Jianqing and say a few words to her.

"Yes, I know the terrain over there. Now the North Gate City is besieged by the Desert Army. People outside can't get in, and people inside can't get out. The Desert Army has made up their mind that even if they can't chew this bone for a while, they will grind it away."

"Since you know everything so clearly, why do you still want to risk everything?" Lu Ci Qiu was still reluctant in his heart, but he knew that he could not keep Ye Jianqing.

Ye Jianqing's eyes, which had been looking at the ten people, finally turned to Lu Ci Qiu. There was light in his eyes, a light that Lu Ci Qiu was reluctant to extinguish: "Of course, if I don't go, how will the army deliver food and grass? Don't worry, I have experienced this situation countless times, I have experience."

Ye Jianqing was really experienced. She had done this kind of thing more than once before traveling through time. A city was so big that it was impossible for the Desert Army to deploy so many soldiers in every place. There would always be a time when they were left alone, and this was the best time for her to take action.

Breakthrough has never been a problem, and the city is not her main goal. Her goal is people.

As long as people are there, the city is there. If people are gone, the city will naturally be gone.

"Lu Ci Qiu, what do you think is the meaning of war?" Ye Jianqing asked.

Lu Ci Qiu: "Survival. All wars are for better survival. The desert is short of supplies, and plants cannot be grown in the desert. It is dry and lacks water, so they need to go somewhere else to live a better life, so they used this excuse to start this war."

Ye Jianqing did not make any comment on Lu Ci Qiu's statement, but just smiled. This reason was correct. For the people at the bottom of the desert, war was indeed a matter of survival.

But in fact, there is another explanation for war, which is ambition.

All the wars she had experienced before she traveled through time were caused by ambition, because they wanted to gain more, to conquer more land, and to stand at the highest point in the world, so they used all kinds of reasons to start wars and to provoke other countries to go to war.

"I won't be with you for the next period of time. Take care of yourself and we'll meet at Beiguan." They were getting ready to set off. This was the first time Ye Jianqing left Lu Ci Qiu to go out on a mission alone. She was very worried about Lu Ci Qiu.

"Take care of yourself too." Lu Ci Qiu stretched out his hands in front of her, wanting a farewell hug. There were many dangers ahead, and he just hoped that this would not be the last hug.

The sudden hug made Ye Jianqing a little unable to react for a moment, but when that warm embrace embraced her, her eyes suddenly felt a little sour, and she always felt that at this moment there was a feeling of a mother leaving her child to go out and fight.

She reached out and hugged his waist.

"See you at Beiguan." Lu Ci Qiu made a promise in her ear.
