At dawn, Lin Mumu entered the village with a medicine box. There were many people lying around inside, and blood was flowing all over the floor. She panicked, dropped the medicine box and rushed in to find people, her mentality almost collapsed.
"Bingbing, I'm here, you...say something?! Bingbing, don't scare me..."
The enemy army attacked the village last night, killed people and ran away in a hurry. Ling Bing went out to deliver medicine and escaped the disaster. When Chen Ken brought his men, the enemy troops had fled so early that not even a shadow was left.
Ling Bing sat on her knees on the ground, fiddling with pills in her hands and stuffing them into the woman's mouth. She covered her wound with all her strength, "Hold on..." Sticky blood seeped out from between her fingers. She couldn't hold on after all. The woman struggled a few times. Next, he took his last breath.
"Don't be like this..." She still covered the wound, tears bursting out, despair spreading from the bottom of her heart. Chen Ken found her first, strode forward and held her shoulders, "Ling Bing, be obedient and follow me."
She resisted, smearing the blood on Chen Ken's body randomly. Ling Bing pushed her away from him, but was hugged tightly by him, "Don't hide."
When Lin Mumu found them, Ling Bing was already asleep in his arms. She took Ling Bing's pulse and suffered moderate internal injuries and needed medical treatment.
"Master Chen...do you know my apprentice?" Lin Mumu said as he fed the medicine into Ling Bing's mouth.
"Cooked."
Chen Ken found warm water to wash the blood stains on her hands, and used the lining of his coat to dry her water droplets, "You take care of her first."
His gentle gaze disappeared for a moment, and he clenched his fists and cursed silently. He couldn't send troops without his father's order.
Due to the war in Lian Ye, the harmonious Chen State was also greatly implicated. As the main general, General Chen Yin was on call at any time, ready to lead his troops to the battlefield. However, the rumored Chen Yuan, the military advisor of the Chen State, did not act and stayed at the battlefield every day. In the palace, those who knew were reluctant to move, but those who didn’t know thought they were confinement!
Sure enough, the war started soon. The enemy's commander was Jin Yi, a country that had rested for a long time. Following the emperor's instructions, Chen Ken first held the frontier, and Chen Yin and his men arrived immediately.
In the political hall, there will be a battle.
"There are few people in the border area now, and we won't be able to defend it for a long time. It will take at least two days for Chen Yin and his troops to arrive. If the enemy attacks the border area and the company is defeated, we will be in danger." Prince Chen Ye is an official "I'm convinced," he said while standing in the audience not far away.
Chen Yuan smiled slightly, who wouldn't know it based on his analysis? The emperor was a little embarrassed, his eyes swept around, and finally settled on Chen Yuan. "Does Yuan'er have any countermeasures?"
"Let's not mention countermeasures. Just now, eldest brother only talked about the time it will take for our army to go to support, but he didn't think about how long the food and grass can last." His tone was a little cold.
The emperor patted his thigh and answered quickly, "Yes, ask someone to send it to you as soon as possible!"
"No need, according to the current military strength, the border can only be defended for two days. When the food and grass arrive, it will become the enemy's meal." Chen Yuan was a little disdainful, but considering that the life and death of the two countries were at stake, he Will be thoughtful.
Just at Yinshi, the lights in Chen Yuan's palace were lit.
Lin Qiqi felt that it was already dawn, so she got up, opened the window and looked out. She happened to see Chen Yuan sitting in the pavilion, staring fixedly at her palace, as if her soul had left the body and was shining brightly in the sun. , nowhere to escape. After getting along for a long time, Lin Qiqi had already become accustomed to his existence, and knew that he would not harm her, and she even acted recklessly in front of him.
"When you wake up, just talk to me." His tone was a little hoarse and his expression was a little downcast.
She came over and sat down, looking at Chen Yuan without saying anything.
"I will go to support Lian Ye today."
"Um."
Chen Yuan was stunned for a long time, lowered his head, his eyes suddenly darkened, and after a while he stood up and prepared to leave.
Chen Yuan walked far away, and when he was about to step out of the door, he suddenly paused and turned to look at her. His eyes were filled with infinite expectations, but what happened to come into his eyes was her cold face. Chen Yuan withdrew his eyes. Get ready to leave.
"Come back alive!" Lin Qiqi shouted, her voice getting trembling as she went to the back.
He heard it, clearly.
The corners of Chen Yuan's mouth raised slightly, and he couldn't help but become softer in his heart. He suddenly thought that maybe it was not impossible to maintain such a life.
At dawn, the prince, the second prince, General Chen and the ministers of the Ministry of War all arrived at the Yiqing Palace on time.
"Father, I believe that now is the best time to send troops. Chen Yin leads the troops through Lucheng, and then crosses Zhuwu Mountain. Even if he enters the company, he can just start the war directly." The prince gestured at the road map and was very sure. explain.
"Passing through Lucheng? Why?" Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly with contempt in his tone. "Passing through Lucheng will increase the driving distance. We are going to support, so we will not use troops if we can. The company does not have troops. As long as the enemy's war does not burn our country, Chen, we will not use troops." He As he talked, he looked at the road map and ran his hands back and forth on the road map.
"Since we are going to support, we must take the shortest distance. The road His Royal Highness pointed out just now passes through Zhuwu Mountain. If calculated according to the time, it is already midnight when we arrive at Zhuwu Mountain. There are no hotels to stay in the mountain. As long as the enemy has some brains, he will definitely They will go to Zhuwu Mountain to lay an ambush for us to jump. In my opinion, the army can leave Dongcheng, go to Wenyang, and finally go west to join the company." Chen Yuan looked up at the prince and added: "When the army passes through Dongcheng, It will pass through a folk road, which can stabilize the people's hearts, and it can also rely on the momentum of our country, the best of both worlds."
The emperor looked at the road map and nodded in confirmation.
"When passing through Dongcheng, the army will be so powerful that the people's morale will definitely be unstable, which is not advisable."
"Then what do you think is the support of the people?"
