The couple in the last days traveled to ancient times, farming and storing grain and meat in the war

Before Xu Ji could say anything, the official announcing the decree said hurriedly, "There is no time to lose. Where is Prefect Xiao? Please have him come quickly to receive the decree."

"he is sick."

"Is he sick?" The officer announcing the imperial edict frowned. He wondered if he could still go to the battlefield if he was sick. But then he realized that he was here to announce the imperial edict, and the rest of the matter had nothing to do with him. He said, "Let alone being sick, even if he's dead, the imperial edict has arrived, and he must be carried out to receive it!"

If it were someone else, Xu Ji might be able to handle it, but this was an official sent by the emperor to announce the decree, and he really wanted to see the real person.

Xu Ji had no choice but to secretly gesture and ask someone to invite Jiang Ningning.

As soon as Jiang Ningning heard what had happened, she hurried over from the backyard.

She has already married Xiao Yan, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't live in the County Lord's Mansion.

The official who announced the imperial edict also knew that they were married, and since Jiang Ningning lived in the backyard of the prefect's mansion, he was naturally not surprised.

Xu Ji originally thought that Jiang Ningning might have a good excuse to stop the official announcing the decree, but as soon as Jiang Ningning came out, she said, "Xiao Yan is not sick, he just went to the north."

Xu Ji almost fainted. What is this lady talking about?

Jiang Ningning's expression remained unchanged. This man was sent by the Emperor, and he would definitely not give up until he saw Xiao Yan. Besides, Mr. Ji had given her Xiao Yan a golden medal of immunity from death, so even if he was caught deserting his post, he had nothing to fear.

Jiang Ningning even said, "Xiao Yan has been feeling uneasy these past few days, and he's always thinking that something might happen to his master, Ji Wei, also known as the Loyal and Brave Marquis, so he went to the battlefield to find the Loyal and Brave Marquis."

But Xu Ji didn't know and was very panicked.

The official who announced the imperial edict wanted to ask what the prefect was doing in the north, but unexpectedly, Jiang Ningning had already answered.

The official announcing the decree was silent for two seconds before he hurriedly added, "It just so happens that the Emperor wants to appoint him as the new commander-in-chief to fight the enemy."

Jiang Ningning hurriedly asked, "Why was he suddenly appointed as the new commander-in-chief to fight the enemy?"

"The Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is seriously injured and temporarily unable to lead his troops into battle. He recommended the County Lady's husband, Prefect Xiao, as his apprentice. From what the County Lady just said, it turns out Prefect Xiao is indeed the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's apprentice."

Jiang Ningning felt more relieved. He was just seriously injured, not dead.

"The Emperor only ordered me to come to Yuzhou to announce the decree, and did not order me to go north. It is not convenient for me to go, so I can only ask the county lady to receive the decree on behalf of Lord Xiao and send someone to deliver the imperial decree to Lord Xiao as soon as possible. I must return quickly to report."

"Okay." Jiang Ningning accepted the order and sent someone to quickly deliver it to Xiao Yan in the north.

The person who was sent naturally did not dare to delay and went there quickly.

Even after the imperial edict announcer left, Xu Ji was still worried: "That official will definitely tell the emperor that Ruoqing is not in Yuzhou. He will definitely be charged with desertion without permission. And desertion without permission has different levels of severity. If nothing goes wrong in Yuzhou during his absence, it's fine. But if something goes wrong, he could be beheaded."

In order to reassure Xu Ji, Jiang Ningning told him about the golden medal of immunity from death.

Xu Ji opened his mouth wide, and finally understood why Jiang Ningning said so happily that Xiao Yan was not sick and had gone to the north.

……

When Emperor Li heard that Xiao Yan was no longer in Yuzhou, and even pretended to be sick and went to the north to find Ji Wei, he was naturally unhappy.

But it is not a good idea to punish Xiao Yan now.

After all, the north still needs Xiao Yan as the commander-in-chief to defend against the enemy.

Emperor Li could only suppress his anger for the time being.

……

Ji Wei was unconscious for several days before he woke up again.

As soon as he woke up, he heard that the Beitan army was coming towards their stronghold, obviously coming to attack their base camp.

Ji Wei hurried to get up and put on his clothes and armor, but he had lost too much blood and was extremely weak. When he stood up, stars suddenly appeared in his eyes and he was about to fall down again.

The soldiers on both sides hurriedly supported him: "General!"

"Don't worry about me, pass on my orders, and fight them! Behind them are our people of Dayan, we must not retreat! A real man is not afraid of death! Anyone who dares to cowardly will be killed immediately!"

"Yes!" The soldiers around Ji Wei at this moment were naturally his confidants, and they were also determined to die.

As soon as the order was given, everyone in the barracks, regardless of whether they were injured or disabled, picked up their weapons and prepared for battle.

Soon the enemy arrived.

The two armies fought, and Ji Wei's side was obviously no match for the other side.

Ji Wei was sitting on his horse, staggering due to his serious injuries, but he still managed to kill several people with his red tassel spear.

Finally, he was exhausted and fell off the horse.

"General!" Immediately, soldiers came to support him from his horse.

Suddenly, several arrows flew from the enemy side.

A soldier immediately rushed in front of Ji Wei and wanted to block it for him. Ji Wei wanted to push the soldier away. He was going to die and he didn't want the soldiers to save him. He would rather the soldiers kill more enemies.

At this moment, several more arrows flew over, actually from behind Ji Wei, just shooting down the arrows flying towards Ji Wei from the front.

The soldiers immediately looked behind Ji Wei and saw a young man in white riding a horse towards him, holding a bow and arrow.

Not only did he save Ji Wei, he also shot another arrow.

Like breaking through the air, it flew towards the enemy leader at high speed.

Hit the enemy leader right between the eyebrows.

The enemy leader had no idea how he was shot, and he fell off his horse with his eyes open.

The enemy was in chaos.

But Xiao Yan had already ridden his horse to Ji Wei's side. Without even saying anything to Ji Wei, he bent down from his horse, picked up Ji Wei's red tasseled spear on the ground, and rode towards the enemy.

Wherever the tip of the gun goes, no one can escape defeat.

It was like the god of war from heaven coming to earth.

Everyone was stunned.

Ji Wei was still furious: "What are you looking at? That's my apprentice. From now on, my apprentice's words are my orders. Hurry and kill him!"

The morale of the soldiers was naturally boosted, and they followed Xiao Yan to fight back.

The enemy army was leaderless and in disarray. Naturally, no one could defeat them. They fled in all directions and even trampled on each other.

The enemy was defeated.

Dayan counterattacked and killed hundreds of thousands of enemy troops.

Countless enemy soldiers died because they trampled on each other.

Hearing that Ji Wei had handed over the command to him and even ordered his confidant to hand over the tiger talisman to him so that he could better command the soldiers, Xiao Yan did not bother to look back.

With one move, they took advantage of the fact that the enemy army was leaderless, had no will to fight, and everyone was in a panic, and took back the two cities that fell into Bei Tan's hands.

In short, the Beitan army was terrified. In one city, the young general defending the city took his men and quickly fled the city and returned to Beitan before Xiao Yan even arrived.

Xiao Yan hadn't used it for two days when he even took back the border.

Of Beitan's 300,000 troops, only a few thousand managed to return.

Xiao Yan cut off the enemy leader's head and hung it on a high pole at the border. All the generals on the Beitan border were horrified.

Afraid that Xiao Yan would kill him.

Seeing that the territory of Dayan had been recovered, and not knowing what had become of his husband, Xiao Yan went back to see Ji Wei.

Ji Wei rarely listened to Zhang Xuanhu's words and was recuperating in the tent.

The main reason he could feel at ease was because he always had news of Xiao Yan's great victory.
