Volume 3 Chapter 198 Marching Thousands of Miles
"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"
Hu Yanyue picked up the storage ring that Bai Fei had placed on the table in front of her. As soon as she thought about it, she saw boxes of Bigu Pills inside. Bai Fei's four short words made her feel deeply shocked.
Then, Hu Yanyue began the transfer work. She transferred the boxes of Bigu Pills into her storage ring. This kind of work is a bit difficult for her who is only in the tenth level of a mortal. Fortunately, she is in a state of excitement and does not feel physically or mentally exhausted at all.
Bai Fei was a little puzzled, but he didn't disturb her study. He just stood there quietly and watched silently.
"Mr. Bai, I'll give this storage ring back to you, thank you!" After a while, Hu Yanyue subconsciously reached out to wipe the sweat on her forehead and gently placed the vacated storage ring on the table.
"Give it to you!" Bai Fei said lightly. He really didn't expect that the other party had such a purpose.
"No, Mr. Bai, you have already done me a huge favor. I dare not accept such an expensive gift again." Hu Yanyue waved her hands repeatedly.
"Alas." Bai Fei didn't insist. He sighed slightly and put the storage ring back into Angel's place. For him, such a storage ring was really nothing.
"Mr. Bai, I...can I try it?" Hu Yanyue held a Bigu Pill on her slender fingers and looked at Bai Fei expectantly.
"Of course I have to give it a try." Bai Fei nodded.
Hu Yanyue couldn't wait to throw the Bigu Pill into her mouth, closed her eyes and felt it carefully.
As soon as the Bigu Pill entered the stomach, a warm current spread. Not only did the hunger disappear, but even the spirit became excited. Does Bigu Pill still have such effect? Hu Yanyue was very surprised. She didn't know that although due to insufficient medicinal materials, more Bigu Pills could not be refined, and the Bigu Pills refined by Bai Fei had also been diluted, and their effectiveness was really not comparable to normal Bigu Pills, but they could not be eaten for two months. Food can completely do it. In addition, he also added some other medicinal materials to make the Bigu Pill more effective, especially for restoring a person's mental state. With such a Bigu Pill as a base, apart from skipping meals, during these two months, even if I don't sleep, I won't feel tired. It can be said that in the entire Jupu Continent, this kind of Bigu Pill was originally created by Bai Fei, and it was very useful for marching and fighting.
"Miss Yue, aren't you afraid that this elixir is poisonous?" Looking at Hu Yanyue's pretty face that was gradually turning rosy, Bai Fei couldn't help but tease her.
"Ah?" Hu Yanyue was stunned for a moment, stared at Bai Fei for a long time, and then said calmly: "Mr. Bai, are you such a person?"
It would be a lie to say that Hu Yanyue wasn't worried. If the food problem hadn't bothered her for a long time, and as soon as she saw it was solved, she could use it to fight back. She couldn't control her excitement, so she became careless. When I think about Bai Fei's origins being unknown, he is the head coach of the Huyan family and is responsible for the glory of the entire Huyan family. If he is really caught in the other party's conspiracy without any reason, that would be such a coward!
"Ha, I was joking."
Hu Yanyue bit her lip and gave him a hard look, feeling cold sweat coming out of her back. However, thinking back, she has more trust in Bai Fei. Just think about it, if the other party is really a spy sent by the Duanmu family, then her carelessness just now has allowed the other party to succeed. The death of the coach will mean the end of the war.
, the Huyan family also lost. She didn't feel any discomfort now. Instead, she felt an indescribable sense of relief. Naturally, she understood that what the other party said was really a joke. However, this kind of joke is a bit too scary!
"Okay, Miss Yue, Bai Fei will take leave. Remember, you must believe in yourself!"
Looking at Bai Fei's leaving figure, Hu Yanyue didn't come back to her senses for a long time. As smart as she was, she vaguely felt that the other party had completely understood her next plan.
At noon the next day, generals from all sides gathered in the commander's tent. The three captains of Huyanyue's personal guard, Huyan Zongliu and all the people who survived the battle in Gaohe Town were here, including Huyanxue and Huyanzheng.
"Everyone, at midnight tomorrow, the whole army of the first column will set off. Without food and grass, we cannot fight against the trapped beasts here."
Hu Yanyue stood in front of the table, looking a little downcast. If Bai Fei were here, he would definitely not begrudge his own applause. Isn't this really good at acting?
"Coach——"
Several ministerial generals shouted in unison, wanting to persuade.
"I have called you here not to listen to your opinions. This is an order. I have already sent a message to the second column. I think they have already set off. We are heading north. In less than a month, we will be able to Meet them. We don’t have much food and grass, so we will let all the soldiers have a meal tonight, and we will have to endure hunger for the next few days.”
"It should have been like this a long time ago, otherwise, we wouldn't be in such a passive situation now." Huyan Zongliu couldn't help but muttered.
The generals looked at him with disdain, their moods still not recovered from this shocking order. For them, they would rather die on the battlefield than become a deserter.
Hu Yanyue glanced at Hu Yanzongliu in surprise, and then said: "After I brought you out, I will definitely take you back. A temporary retreat is nothing. For us, we will die on the battlefield." The greatest honor. However, if you don’t have food and grass, what can you do to fight others? This matter has been decided. If we don’t deal with it as soon as possible, if the Duanmu family takes advantage of the loophole, we will not be able to retreat safely by then. "
Seeing that some generals wanted to say something, Hu Yanyue waved her hands and said solemnly: "That's it! Ah Qing, Alan, Ah Shu, the three of you stay, and everyone else should prepare to go in advance!"
Hu Yanxue and Hu Yanzheng didn't dare to stay at the important place in the army. They didn't know why their sister called them here, but they felt very uncomfortable when they saw their sister's desolate look. After leaving the commander's tent, the two said goodbye to Huyan Zongliu and ran hand in hand to the tent where Bai Fei was.
"Coach, do we really want to retreat?" Ah Qing couldn't help but ask.
Hu Yanyue didn't answer, but pouted at the other two women. Hu Yanlan and Hu Yanshu understood, and quickly rushed to the entrance of the tent, lifted a corner of the tent curtain, and turned their dark and lively eyes outside several times. The two women looked at each other, put down the curtain, returned to their previous positions, and nodded to Hu Yanyue.
"Come here." Hu Yanyue whispered.
The three women approached the table. Hu Yanyue leaned her head forward and made a series of arrangements for them in a low voice.
Night falls again. Under the cover of night, nearly 20,000 soldiers from two armies left quietly in the rear military camp.
During the day, Hu Yanxue and Hu Yan were looking for Bai Fei. This was their subconscious move. In fact, they didn't know what they wanted to say to Bai Fei.
What? Bai Fei was rambling on and on, and what he said didn't involve anything related to the military. Finally, the siblings lost interest and returned to their tents.
The sky was slightly bright, and the army set off. They went into battle lightly, without any baggage. The long queue was winding and not very fast.
Not a day later, the army arrived at Huya Mountain.
Huya Mountain is named after its situation. The whole mountain looks like a tiger lying on the ground. Viewed from the front, it looks like a tiger with its mouth open. There are two peaks protruding from the mountain abruptly, extending to the front and hanging upside down, like two tigers. Like sharp giant teeth.
The army had been walking for twelve full days and had been without food for several days. Because there was no food and the weather was cold, the army's march slowed down. But at this time, it was still thousands of miles away from the meeting point with the second vertical.
When arriving at Huya Mountain, Hu Yanyue gave an order.
Hu Yanyue's order is very simple, that is, she is determined to leave a force to guard Huya Mountain and win hope for others. Yes, the Huyan army has received the news. Behind them, a full 30,000 people from the Duanmu family are chasing them.
In normal times, a mere 30,000 troops would not be taken seriously by the Huyan family's army, but what about now? After being without food for several days, the soldiers were already hungry. Although it is said that cultivators in the mortal realm are still cultivators after all, they can still survive for a few months, but it is only to save their lives. In addition, traveling through mountains and rivers like this, even those with slightly higher strength will be exhausted, so what? Still have the energy to fight? But Hu Yanyue wanted to use only 10,000 weak soldiers to fight against the 30,000 tiger and wolf troops, which was like throwing an egg against a stone!
Naturally, the generals would not accept the order readily. They knew the commander's good intentions, but this was war! In such a special war, if the coach cannot be saved, they will lose the meaning of survival!
"Everyone, are you trying to disobey me?" Hu Yanyue struggled to suppress the passion that was about to burst out of her heart. The time had not come yet, so she could only continue to hide her plan.
"The coach asked seven of us to stay. All the soldiers below me will be furious and will fight to the last drop of their blood. However, the coach must not stay!"
"Uncle Zhan, my niece knows your worries, don't worry, they are not qualified enough to ask for my head, Hu Yanyue!" Hu Yanyue looked heroic and powerful.
"But..." Hu Yanzhan still couldn't rest assured.
"Everyone, who dares to resist the command of the coach? Besides, this is my niece's wish. If we continue to struggle here, won't it make it more difficult for her? You should believe in the strength of the coach. If we continue to march as before, Sooner or later, we will be overtaken by the pursuers from behind. When the time comes, what will we do? The coach's decision is not wrong. What we should do now is to pick up the spirit and speed up the march, join the second column as soon as possible, and pull the team to turn around for support. Coach, this is the best strategy!" Huyan Zongliu suddenly said loudly.
The generals gradually calmed down. At first glance, Huyan Zongliu's statement made sense, but if you think about it carefully, you will understand that it is simply impossible to join the two verticals and rush for reinforcements! Not to mention rescue, it is still unknown whether the exhausted army can persist until the day it meets the second column.
Hu Yanyue looked at Huyan Zongliu, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, but she quickly hid it and only heard her say: "Uncle Zongliu is right, all the generals will act according to the plan immediately!"
