Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Say it again, my husband has been captured by the Jurchens?"

Inside the Western Liao capital, Xijing City, Princess Tianshou, Dalibo, looked at Zhierfulang with disbelief.

"Princess, not only the commander-in-chief, but all the armies of our Liao Dynasty suffered a great defeat and heavy losses this time."

Zhierfulang was the Eastern Azure Emperor Jupiter under Wuyan Guang. He was lucky enough not to die on the battlefield. This time, he was able to lead the entire army back to Xiliao safely, which can be considered a great achievement for Zhierfulang.

"My husband is invincible, how could this happen?"

At this time, Dalibo's lower abdomen was swollen, and she looked to be six or seven months pregnant, carrying Wuyan Guang's child.

When she heard the news that Wuyan Guang had been captured and his fate was unknown, her eyes were vacant, and she muttered to herself in disbelief.

Fortunately, there were several female soldiers behind her who helped her sit down; otherwise, if she had fallen, Wuyan Guang's last remaining bloodline would probably have been lost.

"Princess……"

Zhierfulang couldn't help but look up and see Dalibo's somewhat haggard face, and he felt a pang of heartache.

Once upon a time, Dalibo was the pearl of the grasslands! The dream lover of so many!

In the end... well, the commander-in-chief was the fiercest man on the grasslands, so it was no problem for the princess to marry him! But it would be a lie to say that the younger generation didn't feel regret.

"Princess, the commander has only been captured, there is no news of his death yet, anything is possible, Princess... you must take care of yourself and your child."

Seeing Dalibo's lost expression, Zhierfulang couldn't bear it and could only offer words of comfort.

“Captured, yes, yes, my husband was only captured, not killed.”

Dalibo's eyes had almost glazed over, but after hearing what Zhierfulang said, a spark of life returned to them.

Yes, my husband was only captured, not killed! I must pull myself together and protect his legacy!

"Zhi'er Fulang, you've worked hard to bring the army back this time. I've seen all your achievements. You can ask for any reward you want."

As expected of the former top female general of the Liao Kingdom, Dalibo, having just recovered somewhat from the huge blow, immediately thought of stabilizing the entire army.

After all, she wasn't the only member of the royal family in Xijing City.

Previously, the imperial uncle Yelü Chun and others, unable to defend Zhongjing, had to seek help from their own family, hoping to enter Xijing City for protection on the grounds of their shared bloodline.

At that time, the royal family and her husband had already agreed that as long as the child in her womb bore the surname Yelü, he could rightfully inherit the throne of the Liao Dynasty. Moreover, her husband would be exonerated immediately, as he and her Western Liao were not rebels, but rather acting in a legitimate and reasonable manner.

Out of loyalty to their homeland and blood ties, the couple finally agreed to accept the royal family's request, and Wuyan Guang regained command of the entire Liao army.

After Yelü Chun and his entourage entered Xijing, they kept a low profile. Although they were still nominally emperors, they did not act as emperors of the Liao Dynasty. It seemed that they were just waiting for the child in Dalibo's womb to be born so that he could abdicate immediately.

However, given Yelü Yanxi's recent experience, the couple became wary of these royal family members, since Yelü Yanxi had never imagined that Yelü Chunzhen could seize his position.

Therefore, when Wuyan Guang went out to resist the Jin Kingdom, he left one of his generals, Qiongyao Nayan, in Xijing to assist Dalibo in intimidating others. However, when Yelü Chun entered Xijing, Qiongyao Nayan was initially very loyal to Wuyan Guang, but as time went by, Qiongyao Nayan's interactions with Yelü Chun and others became increasingly close.

Dalibo knew very well that the establishment of the Western Liao Dynasty was due to three factors: first, her husband's martial arts skills were superb; second, his prestige in the army was high enough; and third, she herself was a member of the royal family.

As long as her husband is alive, no one else would dare to have any other thoughts; at most, they could only engage in some underhanded schemes. But now, her husband has been captured, and his fate is unknown. If this news were to fall into the wrong hands, it's hard to say whether someone would be tempted to take the risk. Qiong Yao Nayan's change of attitude is a perfect example!

Therefore, Zhierfulang is currently the target that Dalibo is trying his best to win over and maintain stability!

"A reward? After such a crushing defeat, how could I possibly accept a reward?"

Zhier Fulang shook his head with a wry smile. He was a pure Liao man, and men have pride.

If he had won a battle, he certainly wouldn't hesitate. But as a defeated general, if he were to take advantage of the uncertainty surrounding his commander's fate to demand a reward, he would be utterly shameless.

“Brother Fulang, we grew up together, and I trust your character.”

Dalibo noticed that Zhierfulang was feeling rather down, so he quickly tried to encourage him.

"Although this was a defeat, you successfully protected these tens of thousands of troops and brought them back to Xijing, which is already very good!"

“As long as there are people around, we have a chance to make a comeback. My husband is gone, and my brother Wenrong is gone too. Qiongyao Nayan has been dealing with my uncle and the others more and more lately. Brother Fulang, you are the only person I trust now!”

Although Dalibo's words were not entirely innocent in purpose, he spoke with great sincerity.

At least to Zhierfulang, this was the most sincere plea from his former white moonlight.

Who can refuse the request of their ideal love?

Anyway, it was impossible for Zhierfulang. He looked up at Dalibo, wanting to agree immediately, but when he thought about the complicated situation, he couldn't bring himself to speak.

"You guys step back first."

Daribo waved for the maids around her to leave. Now there were only the two of them in the room. Daribo stared intently at Jirfulang, knowing the feelings Jirfulang had once had for her.

"Princess, you..."

Upon seeing this scene, Zhier Fulang's feelings became very complicated. He felt excited, expectant, and ashamed... Overwhelmed with mixed emotions, he was speechless for the time being.

“Brother Fulang, I understand your feelings for me.”

Dalibo got up and walked to Zhierfulang's side, taking his hand. Although she was pregnant at the time, the charm of the pearl of the grassland was not diminished at all.

"Princess……"

“Brother Fulang, if my husband really can’t come back, according to the rules of our Great Liao, I also have to find a home. I remember all the kindness you have shown me.”

“I married him to save my husband back then, and I’m sorry for that. But things are different now. If we successfully overcome this crisis, I will marry you in a grand and glorious way.”

Remarriage was a common custom in the Liao Dynasty, so Dalibo did not feel that there was anything wrong with what she was doing.

"As long as you treat me well and treat the child in my womb well, then I am yours, and all the female soldiers under my command are yours too."

Dalibo presented his terms, and it must be said that they were quite good.

At the very least, only her beloved was moved.

"It is my blessing that the princess trusts me so much."

Zhier Fulang's gaze gradually hardened.

"Please rest assured, Princess, even if it costs me my life, I, Fulang, will protect you..."
