Chapter 187 Let’s Return to the City Quickly

Inside the tent, Zhao Di Pu was having a conversation with the military advisor.

"Military Advisor, previous news said that our soldiers had successfully crossed the river. Why are we standing still now?" Zhao Di Pu asked dissatisfiedly as he looked at the military advisor who had hurried back.

He was ready to go, but the military advisor stopped him.

It's like I've taken off my clothes and you're telling me there's no water in the bathtub?

Zhao Di Pu frowned and stared at the military advisor, "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation!"

The military advisor came in a hurry. He calmed down his disordered breath and responded quickly:

"The river crossing tonight was indeed smooth. Initially, I ordered my soldiers to burn smoke in various places to confuse the enemy and disperse the troops across the river. In less than an hour, our soldiers quickly reached the other side.

Affected by the rain, the enemy's rockets and black fireballs did not exert their due power, and even the feather arrows had difficulty hitting the target in the darkness.

The military advisor paused, then continued,

"But the enemy soldiers were extremely cunning. I don't know what tactics they used on the other side, but our soldiers fell one after another after reaching the other side.

Even the scouts we sent to the other side never returned. I suspected they had ambushed a large number of troops, so I had to order a halt to the attack."

"Oh!" Zhao Di Pu stood up in surprise and asked, "Have you found out how many enemy soldiers there are?"

"It's too dark at night. The enemy is hiding behind the Sheep and Horse Wall. We haven't yet determined the exact number of enemy soldiers."

The military advisor shook his head and continued, "Our army has already lost three thousand men. We should not advance blindly. We will make a decision after dawn."

Zhao Di Pu was shocked when he heard this!

what? !

Three thousand soldiers were lost early this morning, and now another three thousand are lost?

How can this continue?

In just one day, he lost 6,000 of the 30,000 troops brought by the Qi'an Kingdom, but even the 10,000 cavalry brought by the general were not damaged at all.

Tomorrow will be another day of humiliation by him!

Zhao Di Pu paced back and forth angrily.

At this moment, a soldier hurriedly ran into the tent, knelt down and saluted, reporting: "General, the enemy has broken into the rear camp and killed the squad guarding the grain!"

what! ?

The enemy soldiers actually came to his camp to kill people! ?

Zhao Di Pu was already a little annoyed, and now he was even more furious. He asked anxiously, "Did they catch him?"

"The enemy soldiers are very cunning, they have escaped!" the soldier replied with his head down.

"How many of them came?"

"Two, two people." The soldier said tremblingly.

"Two people? Just run away, why are you in such a hurry?" Zhao Di Pu waved his hands impatiently, signaling the soldiers to leave quickly.

"Hurry up and send more people to guard the food for me!"

The soldier didn't dare to stand up, and stammered, "General, the food and fodder... were stolen by the enemy..."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Di Pu glanced at him sideways, as if he had heard a bad joke.

He exchanged a glance with the military advisor standing beside him, and condescendingly asked the soldier, "Do you know how we transported the food and fodder here?"

Can two enemy soldiers take away the food?

Even if we let these two people steal openly, how many days will it take for them to steal everything?

Do you think he is stupid?

When the soldiers heard General Zhao's questioning, they became even more panicked.

As the journey was long, food and fodder were carried along with the team.

Moreover, in addition to the carts and horses that transported food and fodder, each soldier also carried nearly half a stone of food as he moved forward.

Even if he were in her place, he wouldn't believe that so much food and supplies were lost!

But what can I do if I don't believe it? Inexplicably, more than half of the items in the rear tent are missing!

If he conceals the truth, will he still be alive?

The soldier was helpless. He could only close his eyes, steel his resolve, and say, "Li, Li Wu, and the other four rebelled and helped the enemy transport the food and fodder..."

"nonsense!"

Zhao Di Pu was furious and didn't want to listen to his nonsense!

He kicked the soldier away and ordered, "Go to the rear camp!"

He wanted to see what kind of strong man could quietly transfer the food and fodder transported by 40,000 soldiers from thousands of miles away?

Zhao Di Pu hurriedly stepped out of the tent and walked quickly towards the rear camp.

At this time, Li Qingqing and Bai Ye were hiding beside the tent and eavesdropping on their conversation.

When she saw Zhao Dipu coming out, Li Qingqing's gaze became more solemn. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that he looked familiar, and the more she looked, the more shocked she felt in her heart!

It's really ridiculous. I didn't expect that she would be——

Suddenly, a dull buzzing sounded in Li Qingqing's ears, and a sealed memory suddenly exploded in her mind!

Li Qingqing felt her vision go dark and a severe headache came over her, the pain was so severe that she almost fainted.

Li Qingqing secretly thought that this was not good!

We are in the enemy camp now, and it is very dangerous. We must not faint at this moment!

If she fainted, Bai Ye would definitely not leave her alone. Maybe Bai Ye would die with her!

No, she has to return to the border city safely!

And we must bring back the food and fodder...

If by any chance I fall into a coma and never wake up, let this be... a parting gift...

Li Qingqing gritted her teeth, pulled out a dagger from the space, and stabbed it into her arm!

The intense pain woke her up instantly, cold sweat dripped down her forehead, and her face turned extremely pale.

Bai Ye, who was standing by, didn't expect his master to stab him without any warning. He quickly asked, "Master, what are you doing?"

Li Qingqing endured the pain, pulled the dagger out of her arm, and whispered, "Let's talk about it when we get back!"

Seeing this, Bai Ye quickly took out the golden medicine from his body and was about to bandage Li Qingqing.

Li Qingqing waved her hand to refuse, "Let's go back to the city quickly!"

"Okay! I'll take you out of here."

Seeing that Li Qingqing refused to bandage herself, Bai Ye quickly supported Li Qingqing and, under the cover of night, quickly sneaked to the other side of the tent.

Zhao Di Pu and the military advisor were already rushing to the rear camp with doubts in their hearts, and no one noticed their movements at all.

Along the way, whenever Li Qingqing was about to collapse, she would stab herself with the dagger.

Bai Ye didn't know what had happened to Li Qingqing. He was terrified, but he didn't know how to comfort her. He panicked for a moment, "Master, just stab me!"

Li Qingqing quickly explained: "It's okay, I need to stay awake!"

She didn't want to hurt herself, but the only way to deal with headaches now was to relieve the pain with pain.

She didn't dare to let herself fall into a coma. She had to go back and get those four enemy soldiers and so much food out of the space first.

Bai Ye took Li Qingqing and took a shortcut back to the border city and ran towards the main city.

It was already dawn, and Xie Xuan'an was anxiously waiting for Li Qingqing.

Last night he learned that Li Qingqing and Bai Ye had gone to the enemy camp together. For some reason, he felt inexplicably uneasy.

Suddenly, Bai Ye ran into the yard holding Li Qingqing, who was covered in blood.

Xie Xuanan was horrified when he saw this. He stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"

Bai Ye didn't have time to explain. He put Li Qingqing down and said, "The master is injured. You take care of him first. I'll go find the doctor!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Xuan'an immediately supported Li Qingqing.

Li Qingqing steadied her frail body and asked, "Where are Yunwu and the others?"

"They were called by Hu Dabao to help," Xie Xuan'an replied, and then said:

"I'll help you go back to your room to rest."

"No need, I can still hold on," Li Qingqing waved her hand, "Close the gate first, I have something to tell you."
