Tang Dynasty: To win Yang Guifei, they asked Emperor Xuanzong to die.
Chapter 170 Military Doctor
"I've been well-versed in medical books since I was a child, and I know some traditional Chinese medicine. I can take care of wounded soldiers; I'm quite useful." Jiang Caiyue tried her best to introduce her abilities, afraid that Li Guangbi might get angry and send her back to Lingzhou City directly.
Li Guangbi still frowned, and said helplessly, "You know the art of medicine? Are you more skilled than the military doctors in the camp? Miss Jiang, you must understand, this is war, not child's play!"
"Vice Commander Li, I beg you!" In her desperation, Jiang Caiyue tightly grasped Li Guangbi's hand and pleaded, "Let me try. What I know might save a life. At a time like this, leaving me alone in this mansion will keep me from having peace of mind."
The moment the slender, soft hand covered his own, Li Guangbi was stunned.
This subtle tactile sensation was something he had never experienced before.
Seeing Jiang Caiyue's increasingly determined gaze, Li Guangbi, though deeply disapproving, was inexplicably moved by her courage and persistence. After a moment's hesitation, he finally nodded: "Alright, I'll take you with me. But you must obey my commands and not act on your own!"
"Really?" Jiang Caiyue was overjoyed. Ignoring her physical pain, she jumped onto the horse and sat behind Li Guangbi. "Thank you, Vice Commander Li."
Her soft body pressed against Lee Kwang-pil's back, which was as hard as steel.
Lee Kwang-bi had never been so nervous in his life, and immediately tensed his back.
The two rode together on one horse, speeding towards the military camp.
Meanwhile, preparations were already underway in the military camp.
In order to deceive the enemy, they staged an "empty city stratagem" under Li Mao's direction.
"Commander Li... no, Deputy Commander, you've arrived!"
Li Guangbi's soldiers arrived to meet him. Having not seen their superior for many days, their faces lit up with joy upon seeing him. However, upon seeing the slender, graceful woman sitting behind Li Guangbi, the soldiers froze: "Deputy Commander Li, this is…"
He had heard that Li Guangbi and Prince Shou had been indulging in revelry in Lingzhou City recently, but wasn't that just a charade? Could it be that Vice Commander Li, who had always been indifferent to women, had actually fallen for someone else and turned the charade into reality?
Even so, the girl could not be brought into the military camp.
Isn't this nonsense?
Seeing the disapproving look on his subordinate's face, Li Guangbi knew he had misunderstood. He coughed lightly and explained, "This is Miss Jiang. She is skilled in traditional Chinese medicine and can serve as a military doctor in the camp. Women are generally more meticulous than men. Having her stay in the rear will give the soldiers more peace of mind while they fight on the front lines."
That's a far-fetched argument, because their Shuofang army has always had military doctors.
What does a military doctor need to be meticulous about? As long as he can save lives, that's all that matters!
But seeing his superior blushing and trying to make amends, the soldier didn't say anything more.
Jiang Caiyue followed Li Guangbi into the Shuofang Army camp.
Li Guangbi stood atop the city wall, dressed in a silver-black suit that blended subtly with the wall's color. A short while later, he saw the Turkic Khan leading a contingent of Turkic troops appear on the horizon, a dark mass.
They were even shouting, "Break through Shuofang! Break through Shuofang!"
He certainly looked powerful and confident.
Seeing no movement in the camp, the Turkic army assumed the Tang army had been frightened away and rushed into the camp amidst shouts and noise.
Of course, this was just a trap set by Li Mao.
Seeing that the time was right, Li Guangbi gave a command, and the ambushing soldiers rushed out instantly, surrounding the Turks from all sides.
The Turkic Khan was shocked: "Oh no! The Han people were prepared! We've been tricked!"
After saying this, he turned his horse around and tried to escape temporarily.
However, how could Li Guangbi allow him to escape?
He immediately took the lead and stood in front of the Khan with his own body to intercept him.
Jiang Caiyue could not continue to follow Li Guangbi. She knew that as a woman who did not know martial arts, she would be of no use on the battlefield except to cause trouble.
They simply sat safely fighting in the deepest part of the military camp, hoping for Li Guangbi's safe return...
The fierce battle lasted for more than two hours.
Because they had been outmaneuvered, the Turkic army, which was neither large nor highly skilled, gradually became unable to hold out.
At this moment, Li Guangbi's booming voice rang out: "The Turkic Khan has been captured! The Turkic Khan has been captured!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the Turkic Khan had fallen from his horse and was firmly under Li Guangbi's control.
The enemy general was captured, and morale plummeted.
The soldiers cheered with joy; victory was within reach.
"Father!" The son of the Turkic Khan was also a member of the army.
He saw his father captured and stood frozen on his horse, completely stunned.
The Turkic Khan spoke in Turkic, telling his son to come quickly to his rescue.
However, the son only paused for a moment. Gradually, the Khan saw that there was no panic in his son's eyes. Instead, he showed a gloating expression, blew a whistle, and ordered the Turkic army to retreat.
—In fact, he wished his father would die sooner so he could have that young and beautiful concubine all to himself.
"You!" The Turkic Khan never expected this brat to betray his father at such a crucial moment, and his eyes widened in fury.
The son turned his horse around and called to the remaining less than half of the Turks to retreat.
The Turks originally obeyed the Khan's orders, but now that the Khan was a prisoner, they naturally had to obey his son. Besides, they didn't want to fight the Tang army any longer. It was the Khan's own arrogance that led him to attack the Shuofang army without understanding the situation. Why should their lives be the ones to be lost?
Following the Khan's son, the Turkic soldiers rode away.
The Tang army understood the principle of not pursuing a defeated enemy.
Now that the Turkic Khan has fallen into their hands, they'll release the rest of the group; perhaps they can negotiate peace later.
The dust settled on the battlefield, and the Tang army achieved another victory.
It is unlikely that the Turks will invade again in the short term.
"This battle was truly brilliantly fought!" Guo Ziyi exclaimed excitedly as he learned of the situation in the army through a messenger while staying at home.
“Indeed.” Li Mao smiled calmly; he had long anticipated this scene.
Just then, someone rushed in, panicking, to report: "Your Highness, General Guo, Miss Jiang has disappeared. We've searched everywhere, but we can't find her anywhere."
Jiang Caiyue?
Where could she go?
Li Mao and Guo Ziyi exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Let's search together!"
At this moment, Jiang Caiyue is bandaging the wounds of an injured soldier.
She looked up and saw Li Guangbi's slightly worried gaze, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. My father died in a naval battle before, and my sister and I were displaced and saw a lot of life and death. This little bit of excitement is nothing to me."
Li Guangbi pursed his lips and turned his head away.
Tsk, who's worried about you?
