Chapter 306 Capable of wielding a sword and a saber

"This won't work, that won't work! We have to come up with a solution." Xiao Mu plopped down and sighed, "Ran'er, what ideas do you have?"

Xiao Ran paused for a moment, then said, "I'll go."

Duan Rong's eyes were filled with disbelief: "Ran, you!"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ran knelt down on one knee, clasped his hands in supplication, and asked for permission:

“General, your daughter has been in the Northwest for more than two years. She can wield a sword and wield a knife, and she believes she is no less capable than a man. Moreover, your daughter has never revealed her true face to the enemy, so they have no way of knowing her identity. Even if she is unfortunately discovered, your daughter will not hesitate to die to prove her loyalty and will never disgrace her family or the army.”

"This time, when we go to the enemy camp, my daughter will surely protect the general and help him return to the capital as soon as possible."

The surroundings remained silent for a long while.

Duan Rong still looked incredulous. He wanted to say something, but Zhao Yong stopped him. Xiao Mu's expression was solemn. After a long silence, he finally spoke:

"Xiao Ran accepts the order. You are to go and risk your life to find out the enemy's situation. If you encounter danger, make a decisive decision and do not linger in battle. You must protect yourself... The entire army awaits your triumphant return."

"Your daughter obeys."

……

The next morning, the main force returned to camp together.

Xiao Ran found a moment and borrowed clothes from several soldiers of similar stature.

She had just finished tying the last piece of clothing around her waist when Duan Rong's voice came from the doorway.

"Miss Ran... are you there?"

Xiao Ran hastily draped her outer robe over herself. "Come in."

Duan Rong had already changed out of his heavy armor. Although he was wearing a fur coat, you could still see that he had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and his demeanor revealed a youthful spirit.

He stared at Xiao Ran for a long time, hesitating to speak, but finally sat down in the chair in frustration.

Xiao Ran was amused by this: "Brother Duan, you've always been the type to speak your mind, how come you've become such a stifled turtle now?"

Duan Rong sighed deeply: "It's all because of you!"

"You're only a few years younger than me, and I, a perfectly healthy man, have let you put yourself in such danger. I'm really furious!"

Duan Rong stood up: "Sister Ran, after much consideration, I think it's better if I go. You can stay in the camp and take care of my father."

Xiao Ran chuckled, her voice like a silver bell: "Brother Duan, there's no need to worry about Uncle Duan. He's fine. If you're really worried, I can leave a few pills for Xiao Hei, and he'll take care of Uncle Duan for me."

"That's not what I meant!" Duan Rong's face flushed red, and he turned away, flicking his sleeve. "I was just worried about you..."

"Alright, Brother Duan, since I call you brother, I know you truly care about me." Xiao Ran handed over a cup of tea and placed it on the table.

Duan Rong turned around: "Then you know you still owe me!"

"But Brother Duan, can you find someone more suitable than me from the army?"

Duan Rong remained silent, sat down with a sullen face, picked up his teacup, and drank it down in one gulp.

"Brother Duan understands my heart by showing how much he worries about Uncle Duan. General Xiao is my father, and I will protect him even if it means my death."

Duan Rong looked at Xiao Ran and saw that she had lowered her eyes to hide her emotions, but he could still sense that she was downcast for a moment.

"Pah! Pah! Pah! What do you mean by dead or alive? You and General Xiao both have to come back alive!"

Xiao Ran smiled gently.

"Okay, we'll definitely come back alive."

When the woman's smile reached Duan Rong's eyes, he froze for a moment, suddenly feeling awkward: "You... you're not supposed to wear men's clothes like that. Think about it again, I'm leaving now!"

Xiao Ran found it strange and inwardly grumbled.

If he hadn't suddenly barged in, would she have dressed so casually? And why doesn't he wear men's clothes? Back then...

Xiao Ran shook her head and continued with what she was doing.
