My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin

"The two of you must lead a team to conduct a thorough check to see if there are any survivors. Remember, whether the enemy is dead or still breathing, you must stab them several times in the heart with your sword. Don't leave any hidden dangers!"

"Yes, master!" Wen Wen and Wen Su responded in unison, and then led a team of elite soldiers to quickly launch a search operation.

Holding sharp blades, they patrolled around the battlefield carefully. Whenever they passed a corpse or a suspicious place, they would swing their swords and stab the opponent's heart without hesitation.

After a series of intense and busy operations, time passed quietly and before we knew it, half an hour had passed.

At this moment, Wen Su finally stopped what he was doing and hurried to Gu Jinxuan's front. His face was full of respect as he said softly, "Master, we have finished handling this matter. No one is left alive. I have arranged for Wen Su to lead the others to escort you back to the camp to rest and recuperate. I will leave the cleanup here to you."

Gu Jinxuan nodded slightly to show his agreement.

His once upright figure now looked a little exhausted, and his voice was slightly weak as he responded, "That's very good. However, you must properly bury the remains of our brothers. Don't be negligent. As for the corpses of the herdsmen, just gather them together and burn them completely to prevent the spread of the disease."

After saying that, he sighed softly, because at this moment he felt as if all his strength had been drained away, and his whole body was limp and powerless.

Staying here will not only be of no help, but may become a burden and encumbrance to everyone. Therefore, it is better to follow Wen Su's advice and quickly return to the camp to rest and recover.

Under the strict protection of Wen He and other guards, Gu Jinxuan stumbled on the road back to the camp, step by step. Every step he took seemed to exhaust the last bit of strength in his body.

Along the way, his body, which was already exhausted from days of fighting, seemed increasingly shaky, but he always gritted his teeth and persevered.

At the same time, his mind flashed through the horrifying scenes of the battlefield like a movie: broken limbs and arms were scattered all over the ground, blood dyed the ground beneath his feet red; shouts and wails rose and fell, interweaving into a horrifying symphony of death...

However, among these horrific scenes, the most frequently appearing figure was Lin Qingxue's delicate and graceful figure.

Sometimes she smiled sweetly, sometimes her eyes were filled with tears, which made Gu Jinxuan's heart fluctuate accordingly.

Finally, after a long and arduous journey, Gu Jinxuan and his party arrived at the camp. As soon as he stepped into the camp gate, he breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders, and then he couldn't wait to walk towards his tent.

After entering the tent, he didn't even have time to take off his battle robe that had been soaked with blood and sweat. He just quickly washed his face and hands with clean water, then fell headfirst onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep instantly.

This sleep did not give Gu Jinxuan a real rest. In his dream, he was still surrounded by endless blood and killing.

Those comrades who died tragically under the enemy's swords and guns reached out to him for help, calling out his name; and Lin Qingxue stood not far away, looking at him with tearful eyes, and her sad and resentful eyes seemed to be able to penetrate his soul.

Such a horrible dream made Gu Jinxuan groan in pain from time to time, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead.

I don’t know how long it took, but when Gu Jinxuan slowly opened his eyes, he found that the sky outside was completely shrouded in night.

The camp was completely silent, broken only by the occasional chirping of insects. A dull, oppressive atmosphere permeated the air, making it almost impossible to breathe. He struggled to sit up from his bed, rubbed his sleepy eyes, then staggered out of bed and walked out of the tent.

As soon as he left the tent, Gu Jinxuan saw the soldiers scattered in groups of three or four, silently busy with their own affairs.

Some people held rags and carefully wiped the weapons in their hands, as if the cold steel was their entire life support; some people bent over and carefully sorted out the mountains of supplies. Although their movements were a little slow, their expressions were still focused.

Everyone's face is covered with deep and shallow wrinkles, which are the traces left by time and the trauma brought by war.

Their eyes revealed an indescribable fatigue and vicissitudes of life, as if they had experienced one endless nightmare after another.

He decided to boost morale, so he called all the soldiers together and gave a short and powerful speech. He told the soldiers that everything they did was for the country and the people. Although the war was cruel, their efforts were worthwhile.

The soldiers listened to his words quietly, and the flames of fighting spirit and hope gradually rekindled in their originally dull eyes.

Yes, they also understand the cruelty of war. There is no reason why war can't kill people!

However, as a soldier, shouldering the sacred mission of defending the country, being able to die on the battlefield and be wrapped in horsehide is a worthy death, and it is also their final destination.

Those brothers who once existed resolutely sacrificed their most precious lives with extremely firm beliefs and fearless courage.

It was with this selfless spirit that they successfully defended Nancheng and the unarmed innocent villagers around it.

Whenever recalling that thrilling past, everyone's heart will be filled with deep respect and indescribable pride.

We all know that this hard-earned tranquility and peace are condensed with the blood and sweat of countless heroes. Every charge into battle, every life-and-death struggle, is a magnificent chapter written by these heroes with their lives.

Therefore, everyone firmly believes that no matter how many sacrifices are made, it is worth it, because what they are defending is not just a city, but also the beautiful life of the people in the city who can live and work in peace and contentment.

At this moment, the survivors are more aware of the heavy responsibility they shoulder. They vow to carry on the lofty will of their deceased comrades, forge ahead bravely, continue to fight the enemy without retreat, and protect this land stained with blood and the people who have lived and multiplied here for generations.

In the following days, the seriously injured Gu Jinxuan did not slack off at all. On the one hand, he concentrated on recuperating his body and striving to recover as soon as possible; on the other hand, he actively discussed the next combat strategy with the generals.

After careful consideration and detailed planning by everyone, a more complete and rigorous defense system gradually took shape.

It is particularly worth mentioning that this time they successfully dealt a fatal blow to the invading herdsmen group and achieved complete annihilation.

This brilliant victory not only greatly deterred the vast majority of herdsmen on the grassland who were ready to make moves, but also gave the enemy a new understanding of Nancheng's strength.

In the current complex and unpredictable situation, Gu Jinxuan confidently asserted that in the next few long years, Nancheng will be able to survive peacefully and safely.

You know, the herdsmen who had suffered such tragic losses and painful lessons would probably no longer have the courage to take risks and risk their lives to provoke trouble.

There are nearly 200,000 herdsmen living on the vast grassland, and the large and small teams formed by these people are as numerous as stars and difficult to count.

However, these herdsmen are not stupid people. As long as they can ensure that they have enough food and water, they neither dare nor are willing to stir up trouble or create chaos.

Because of this, Gu Jinxuan successfully intimidated most of the pastoral groups on the grassland with his strong strength and outstanding leadership skills.

From then on, all forces on the grassland no longer dared to rashly attack Nancheng. As a result, Nancheng finally ushered in a rare period of relative peace and stability.

However, even in this rare time of peace, Gu Jinxuan never relaxed his vigilance. He was well aware of the principle of being prepared for danger in times of peace, and understood that only by continuously consolidating and strengthening the defensive fortifications and facilities in the south city could he truly achieve long-term stability.

Therefore, during the time when he was recuperating from his injuries, he decisively issued orders to his two capable subordinates, Wen Wen and Wen Su, to go to the garrison camp in the south city and launch a comprehensive and in-depth special training activity for the soldiers there.

After careful recuperation and meticulous care, Gu Jinxuan's seemingly serious injuries were no longer a problem. After just a few days, he seemed to be reborn from the ashes, and his whole body was full of vitality and energy. As soon as his body recovered, Gu Jinxuan couldn't wait to devote himself to the team's rest and recuperation work.

He carefully checked the equipment and status of each soldier to ensure that they were in the best combat readiness; at the same time, he carefully assessed the losses caused by the operation and formulated corresponding replenishment plans based on the actual situation.

After everything was arranged, Gu Jinxuan finally gave the order to set off back to the imperial city. With his order, the entire team marched towards the imperial city like a winding dragon.

With flags flying and the sound of horses' hooves resounding through the sky, this team, which has experienced the baptism of wind and rain, embarked on the journey home with the glory of victory and firm belief.

Inside the Lin Mansion in the imperial city, sunlight streamed through the window lattices onto Lin Qingxue's exquisite bed. The tranquility of the afternoon was broken by her slowly waking up. As soon as she opened her eyes, a chill hit her face.

Lin Qingxue couldn't help but shiver, keenly sensing that the temperature had dropped significantly. She lazily got up, slowly walked to the window, gently pushed it open and looked out.

The ground in the yard was covered with a layer of yellow leaves, which rustled in the breeze. These fallen leaves seemed to be messengers sent by nature, telling people that autumn had quietly arrived.

Lin Qingxue stared at the withered yellow leaves and couldn't help but think of the children far away at the training base. Now that autumn has arrived and the weather is getting colder, they must need more warm clothes to withstand the coming winter.

Thinking of this, she immediately turned back inside and called her maid Wen Nuan, saying, "Wen Nuan, go to the clothing store quickly. Prepare two sets of autumn and winter clothes for each child at the training base. Don't forget to match them with suitable shoes and socks. Also, the servants in the mansion, the academy, and the village must not be left out. Prepare two sets of autumn and winter clothes, as well as shoes and socks for each of them. As for the masters and servants in our mansion, both big and small, they will also each get two sets. Oh, and the servants in the shop only need one set."

Lin Qingxue gave orders in an orderly manner. During this period, the sisters Wenshui and Wenrou, who were originally responsible for taking care of Lin Qingxue's daily life, were sent to the training base to serve as instructors.

Therefore, the only two people left by her side waiting for her orders were Wen Nuan and Wenquan. Lin Qingxue has always been thorough and meticulous in her work, and always considers the living needs of everyone in the mansion very carefully.

"Yes, master." Wen Nuan nodded gently, agreeing with a submissive look on her face.

She knew very well that as the temperature gradually dropped and the weather turned cooler, Lin Qingxue, as the master, would definitely take everyone's needs into consideration and prepare warm clothes such as autumn and winter clothes for everyone in advance.

At this moment, Wen Nuan suddenly seemed to remember something important. She raised her head abruptly, looking straight at Lin Qingxue, and said seriously and anxiously, "Master, the weather is getting colder this winter. If we still let everyone train outdoors as usual, I'm afraid our bodies won't be able to bear it! In my opinion, shouldn't we build a large shed at the base specifically for everyone to train in during the winter? This way, we can prevent everyone from getting cold and ensure that the training is not affected. What do you think?"

"Of course, no problem. Just go ahead and make the arrangements! I've already given you some money, so if you don't have enough, just come to me and get more."

Lin Qingxue agreed without hesitation without even thinking. After all, she knew very well the priorities of the matter. Recalling her experience when she was studying at the police academy, she knew that every winter, training was basically conducted in warm indoors.

Therefore, when she came here, she naturally had the same idea. She couldn't bear to see everyone enduring the biting cold wind in this cold winter and doing hard training in the cold outdoors.

She has never been the kind of person who is harsh and unkind, and she would never do such a thing.

After getting Lin Qingxue's consent, Wen Nuan happily went to find the hot spring. She trotted all the way to the hot spring and couldn't wait to tell him her idea.

"Brother Wenquan, I'd like to ask you to help me find some people to build a shed and create an indoor training ground!" Wen Nuan said expectantly.

After hearing this, Wenquan nodded and said that he would arrange it as soon as possible. Seeing this, Wen Nuan turned around and walked towards the clothing store in the city to buy some clothes.
