Chapter 1447 No Way to Retreat

Lu Zheng's team included Gu Hui, Princess Jinghe, and He Sanniang Xie Zhiyi.

Xie Zhiyi felt that Gu Xin's accident was caused by her. If she had accompanied her that night and got on the carriage with Gu Xin, Yin Yueli would definitely think she was troublesome. As long as there was something wrong, Bai Si outside would definitely see it. Even if she was kidnapped in the end, there would be someone to accompany Xinxin.

But she left that day because her skirt was dirty.

She felt extremely guilty, so she begged her mother to change into the uniform of a female soldier and went to the battlefield with them.

She would not drag others down. She would only stay in the back and kill as many as she could. She wanted to see Xinxin as soon as possible, otherwise she would not be at peace in this life.

The Peng family did not allow her to come, but Lu Zheng and Gu Hui agreed.

In the end, Peng had no choice but to agree.

The army was approaching, not giving the other side any time to prepare.

Gu Hui finally saw another side of Lu Zheng, a side that was completely different from what he usually showed in front of the Gu family.

Gu Hui was relieved that someone could care about Xinxin like this.

Princess Jinghe and He Sanniang were also bloodthirsty. They had experience in fighting in Southern Xinjiang and the Goddess Country, and they were no worse than ordinary men.

Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu cooperated very well. In just three days, they seized half of the grassland where the Sand God Country was located.

Similarly, the Peng brothers were also very smooth in the Chuyun Country.

They attacked for three days, and Gu Xin also walked in the direction pointed by Ayelin for three days.

However, she did not find the herdsmen that Ayelin mentioned. She did not see anyone along the way. She didn't know whether she was deceived or did not go to the place Ayelin said.

She brought a water bag, the dried meat that Ayelin gave her, and a few daggers that Ayelin gave her. Of course, she still carried the short knife.

Ayelin also found her a thick coat for the Sand God Country to keep warm and a men's suit to make it easier for Gu Xin to walk.

She walked on the grassland with her feet until she saw a mountain.

On November 25, she asked Ayelin and wrote down the time every day. She saw a snowy mountain.

Could it be that if she crossed this mountain and walked forward, she could return to Kuncheng? Gu Xin remembered that last year and the year before, the mountains to the north of Kuncheng were all snowy mountains like this.

She stopped, drank a sip of water, ate a few bites of dried meat, rested for a while, and planned to cross this snowy mountain.

She had been walking alone for six days, without meeting anyone, and occasionally met animals.

Rubbing her hands and rubbing her red nose, Gu Xin planned to cross the snowy mountain before dark, otherwise, she would definitely freeze to death, and the dried meat on her body would be eaten up, and if she didn't freeze to death, she would probably starve to death.

She thought that the people of the Sand God Kingdom went to other places to look for her, but she didn't know that the Sand God Kingdom now had no energy to chase her and had been forced to retreat by Lu Zheng.

In the Sand God Kingdom's tent, the king summoned several sons to discuss the response.

Some proposed surrender, and some proposed to fight to the end.

Those who surrendered thought that the Great Zhou was coming with great force and must have been well prepared. Moreover, the Great Zhou now had Kuncheng, a large grain-producing rear base, and they had enough food and grass, so they had time to maneuver.

Those who resisted to the end thought that the Great Zhou was just creating momentum to scare them. The Great Zhou’s target must be the Third Miss Gu. As long as they found the Third Miss Gu, they could threaten the Great Zhou. It would be better to ask for help from the Izumo Kingdom or the Lange Kingdom now.
