Chapter 432: Heavy Rain

Chapter 432: Heavy Rain

The wounded soldier who was originally under Du Sanbao and is now a centurion said: "But you can't say that, the strength of our soldiers in the war, the general is the commander, and the division of labor is different!"

The Jin army huddled together and were discussing, when suddenly someone shouted from above the city tower: "Back! Back! Princess Zhen Guo is back! General Wang Xiping is behind!"

Liu Hong relaxed, and shouted: "Quickly open the city gate!"

All the soldiers waiting for the news in Longyang City stood up and stretched their necks to look at the city gate.

The dark clouds covered the moon and the strong wind was blowing, all of which were signs of an impending rainstorm.

In the darkness, Bai Qingyan's group of people rushed back, without lighting the torches, they rode straight back towards the wind.

Following Bai Qingyan and the guards of the Bai family were the cavalry led by Wang Xiping holding high the torches.

Bai Qing said that on the horse's back, it was Bai Jinzhi who had passed out due to exhaustion, probably because the elder sister was beside her, and she didn't wake up after being knocked on the horse's back.

It's been half a month, and Bai Jinzhi's mind has been tensed into a thread. The moment she saw Bai Qingyan, she finally let go of her strength, and couldn't hold it anymore and passed out.

The heavy city gate opened slowly, and the suspension bridge on the river surrounding the city was lowered with the sound of iron chains rubbing against each other. Bai Qingyan and his party rushed into the city.

Liu Hong had already brought people down from the top of the tower. Seeing Bai Qingyan jumping off the horse, the guards of the Bai family also jumped off the horse.

"Centurion!" the wounded soldier saw Du Sanbao lying on his horse covered in blood after being rescued, and hurried forward.

"Send them to the wounded barracks first!" Bai Qing said.

"yes!"

Lu Ping got off his horse, picked up Shen Qingzhu and ran towards the wounded barracks.

"Princess, you've worked hard!" Liu Hong looked at Bai Qing and said.

Afterwards, Wang Xiping came back with his troops, jumped off his horse, and said energetically, "When I saw Liang's army coming down the mountain, I knew that the princess had succeeded, so I immediately withdrew my troops."

On the way back, the wind became more violent, Bai Qingyan couldn't help worrying, and asked: "The heavy rain is coming, I wonder if the commander has evacuated the people, sent people to harvest wheat, and destroyed Liang's army food road?"

Liu Hong nodded: "Don't worry! They have already sent people to do it! As expected, Liang Jun... wanted to flood Longyang City, and sent a lot of people to dig canals. It is to take advantage of the darkness to dig the canal overnight, with the intention of ending the battle of Longyang City as soon as possible. Princess, please go and rest! Recharge your batteries, there is still a tough battle ahead!"

"By the way!" Liu Hong suddenly thought of the guards of the Bai family outside the south gate. See the princess!"

Bai Qingyan turned her head and told the guards of the Bai family who were closest to her: "Go and have a look!"

After finishing speaking, Bai Qingyan bid farewell to Liu Hong, and walked towards the wounded barracks.

On the way back, Bai Qingyan checked that there were no major wounds on Bai Jinzhi's body. He probably passed out because of being too tired, but Shen Qingzhu was seriously injured to protect Bai Jinzhi, so Bai Qingyan was really worried.

Bai Jinzhi was fine, but he was too tired and sleepy, and fell asleep. Except for the burn on the back of his hand, the military doctor couldn't check the rest, but his pulse was still stable.

Shen Qingzhu had knife wounds and arrow wounds on his body, and he was exhausted, so he couldn't hold on until he fell down. The military doctor said that the situation was not good.

Bai Qingyan looked at the bloodless Shen Qingzhu, and said to the military doctor: "Pull a curtain, I will go in and check Shen Qingzhu's wound, and tell you the condition of her wound, and you teach me how to deal with it."

"It's possible!" The military doctor nodded.

The curtain was drawn, and Bai Qingyan just took off his armor and washed his hands with hot water to get into the curtain when he heard Ji Langhua's voice: "Big girl!"

Bai Qingyan turned her head and saw Ji Langhua trotted over, "Miss! I set off immediately after Miss, and I still couldn't catch up with Miss!"

Ji Langhua glanced at the curtain: "Is the fourth girl injured? Eldest girl, don't worry, leave it to me!"

In Shuoyang City, Ji Langhua knew that Bai Qingyan was leaving for the northern border, so she hurriedly packed her bags and wanted to come to the northern border with Bai Qingyan. She can also help with healing!

But when she got to the front hall, Bai Qingyan had already left, so it was Dong who made a decisive decision and sent Ji Langhua to chase Bai Qingyan with the guards of the Bai family. Even after chasing to Longyang City, he failed to catch up with Bai Qingyan.

Bai Qingyan could trust Ji Langhua's medical skills, and she felt at ease with Ji Langhua around. Bai Qingyan opened the curtain for Ji Langhua, and hurriedly said, "It's Shen Qingzhu! Thank you for your hard work!"

Before Bai Qingyan left, she helped Ji Langhua in the tent.

After Ji Langhua finished treating the injuries on Shen Qingzhu's body, he wrote the prescription, and then fell asleep on the table in a daze.

Before dawn, there was lightning and thunder outside, followed by heavy rain.

Bai Qingyan tucked in the quilt for Shen Qingzhu, stood on the porch watching the pouring rain, worried whether the wheat would be harvested or not.

Lightning Yeye, at the moment when the night was pierced, one could clearly see the soldiers who bowed their heads and stooped to harvest the wheat in the rain, and the guard soldiers who stood high and raised their arrows to prevent the spies from coming.

The action must be fast and silent tonight. This is a military order and everyone must abide by it.

The Jin army harvested the wheat field overnight, and the Liang army dug the big canal overnight.

At dawn, Xun Tianzhang's son waited on Xun Tianzhang just after drinking the medicine, and then he heard the spies report in the rain.

General Liang, who was drenched and dripping with rainwater, hurried in, wiped the rainwater off his face with his hands and said, "Commander! The spies came to report that the Jin army destroyed my Liang army's grain transportation channel last night, leaving only Pingming road. Cut off our army food!"

Xun Tianzhang clenched his fists, was silent for a moment, and shook his head: "If the Jin army wants to cut off our army's food and grass, they should block all the food roads, leaving only Pingming Road. It is clear that they want to divert our army to Pingming Road!"

The Jin army probably wanted to swallow the troops that went to Daliang to protect the food and grass first, and then swallowed the food and grass. At that time...the soldiers in Daliang had no food to eat, so how could they fight?

"What should the Marshal do now?"

Xun Tianzhang picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth that were sour from the bitter medicine, and said calmly: "The main force goes to Pingming Road, and wipes out all the Jin troops there! Call all the generals to discuss matters."

"yes!"

"Has it been dug?" Xun Tianzhang turned to his son.

Xun Tianzhang's son nodded: "The soldiers who dug the canal just returned to the camp to rest last night, and my son has already sent a battalion to take over, just waiting for my father's order. Fortunately, my father made a decisive decision yesterday, and it started to rain before dawn. My son I have lived for more than forty years, but I have never seen such a heavy rain!"
