Chapter 226 Fang Yuanqi: My wife gets tired too, I feel so bad...
All she had to do now was delay time.
This time the barbarians only attacked a small town under the jurisdiction of Liangzhou, but there were quite a few people coming. If they were allowed to break in, by the time the Qi army arrived, it would be too late.
So Mu Lingshuang just competed with the opponent's move by move until the opponent's coach became impatient, and then he killed the opponent's general with a hammer.
Let’s not talk about how angry the barbarian commander was when he saw his subordinate’s head was smashed and gone.
After Mu Lingshuang made the final decision, he led his men to run in the opposite direction of the town. At first, the barbarian commander only sent a small part of the army to pursue them, while he led the main force to capture the town ahead as soon as possible.
They thought that after occupying several surrounding towns, they could trap Liangzhou.
This is just the beginning, and soon... Liangzhou City will fall into their hands.
By then, they would use Liangzhou as their base, and could march straight into Daqi and plunder more food...
Just when the barbarian commander was imagining a bright future, Mu Lingshuang, seeing that most of the enemy troops had not caught up with him, led his men to launch a surprise attack.
Although the town had city gates and garrisons, their numbers were too small to hold out for long. In order to protect the townspeople from being robbed, Mu Lingshuang could only lead these people behind him to avoid being pursued from behind while trying his best to harass the barbarian army attacking the city.
However, the barbarian army here was attacking the city in front and had to endure Mu Lingshuang's harassment from behind, and they were simply unable to bear it.
Seeing that the soldiers were distracted and the efficiency of the siege was extremely low, the barbarian commander had no choice but to kill these guys jumping around first before attacking the city.
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Mu Lingshuang heaved a sigh of relief. He led his men in and out of the enemy camp, feeling very happy...
Just when everyone was gradually becoming exhausted, the secret guard who had gone back to report the news finally arrived with reinforcements.
Seeing that his sneak attack plan had failed, the barbarian commander wanted to lead his men to retreat, but at this time Mu Lingshuang became excited again.
Not only did he chase the enemy, but he also rode his horse into the enemy's infantry from time to time to charge and kill.
The reinforcements who arrived felt like the sky was falling when they saw what their princess did.
My dear! If they want to leave, let them leave. Just come back and we will chase them. Why are you dancing on the edge of a knife?
This is a life-threatening situation! You have lived enough, but we haven't.
Ugh……
After a long sigh, the general who came to assist had no choice but to rush forward with his men to chase down the barbarians and rescue Her Royal Highness the Princess in order to protect her safety.
Just when they finally caught up with Her Royal Highness the Princess, before they could even breathe a sigh of relief, they heard Her Royal Highness the Princess shout:
"Brothers, follow me! Kill these bandits and I'll give you more meat!"
Seeing their princess let out a roar, she rushed forward again!
The commander of the reinforcements who finally arrived to meet Her Royal Highness the Princess was exhausted, but he could only continue to chase after the princess and kill the barbarian soldiers who were in the way.
In front of them, a group of evil spirits were rushing around and reaping the lives of the soldiers, and behind them, the Qi army was chasing them desperately.
After being chased from front to back, the barbarian army suffered heavy losses.
This was the battle that made Mu Lingshuang famous.
Rumor has it that Princess Rong'an led the army in and out of the enemy camp seven times. In fact, those who have witnessed it know that it was more than just seven times. Their princess almost drove the enemy commander into autism.
[Xiaobai: I'm not very good at writing this kind of thing, so please bear with me if it's not good...?]
It is said that after the barbarian commander returned, he was questioned by the barbarian king.
Mu Lingshuang thought to herself: Oh… I miss my childhood so much! When we were fighting, we didn’t have to think about anything, we just swung the hammer and it was done. It’s nothing like now, where we have to think twice before doing anything…
Seeing his wife fall into deep thought while talking, Fang Yuanqi was curious about why. He scratched his wife's palm anxiously and asked:
"And then? Tell me, sister!"
"Then..." Mu Lingshuang squeezed his wife's soft little hand and said with a smile, "I was young at that time, how could I be a commander? But I really wanted to integrate with the soldiers, so I asked my father to confer the title of general on me."
"At that time, my father had someone make a general's seal for me. I thought it was quite pleasing to the eye, so I have been using it ever since..." When Mu Lingshuang said this, there was a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.
Later, as she gradually emerged in the military camp, her position was promoted again and again until she led troops into battle and became a commander-in-chief.
It's just that she has always been used to using the general seal, and the old people in the barracks are more accustomed to calling her general. She also feels that this title is more intimate, so she lets the new soldiers call her that as well.
This is also why everyone in the barracks calls her General, while people outside call her Marshal.
She was the true Grand Marshal of the Army of Da Qi, but in order to show the outside world that they had fought side by side with General Mu, the soldiers still preferred to call her General to express their closeness.
As for the elderly, the weak, women and children who had never joined the army, they always called her Marshal as a sign of respect.
"I see."
Fang Yuanqi nodded, seemingly understanding, and then continued to wander around the military camp with his wife...
Before they knew it, it was already late. Just when Mu Lingshuang was about to take his wife back for lunch, some tiny noises suddenly came from his ears.
If you listen carefully, you can hear some cries of pain and groans from time to time.
"Sister, did you hear any noise?"
Fang Yuanqi said this and turned to look at Mu Lingshuang. When he noticed that the other person's face was no longer relaxed, he couldn't help but ask:
"What's wrong, sister?"
Mu Lingshuang shook her head and pulled her towards the tent nearby, explaining as they walked:
"This is the tent where the wounded are staying temporarily. Now that we're nearby, let's go in and take a look."
Seeing Mu Lingshuang's mood suddenly depressed, Fang Yuanqi shook their clasped hands and whispered comfortingly:
"Don't be sad, sister. You are already very strong. It's just that fighting is bound to get hurt."
After hearing her words, Mu Lingshuang couldn't help but sighed:
"Ah...yes, getting hurt is inevitable in war."
But when she thought about the fact that after every war there were always people who died or were injured, and that there were always families that were broken up, how could she feel at ease?
Seeing Mu Lingshuang's expression becoming increasingly serious, Fang Yuanqi didn't know how to comfort her. He could only hold her hand tightly and tell her that he was always by her side.
Mu Lingshuang naturally knew his wife's worries, and immediately smiled back, indicating that she didn't need to worry.
Little did she know that her smile, which was uglier than crying, made Fang Yuanqi feel even worse.
Everyone says that Princess Rong'an is invincible and victorious in every battle, and is the patron saint of Da Qi. However, who knows that General Mu and Marshal Mu, whom they have deified, are just flesh and blood, and just a young woman.
She will also be sad, upset, and tired...
Thinking of this, Fang Yuanqi looked at his wife with even more heartache.
However heartbroken she felt, she had to let go as Mu Lingshuang lifted the tent curtain.
Otherwise, if people saw their majestic General Mu secretly holding the hand of the young guard, it would have a bad influence...
