General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

Forcing the army was the most intense method of marching. Infantry could travel a hundred miles a day, but this method of marching consumed a huge amount of stamina. It might even reach the limit of humans. Unless it was absolutely necessary, they would not use forced armies.

When they received the military order, the new recruits were at a loss, but the veterans understood.

After a night of fighting, they only rested for four hours before taking forceful measures to support Zi Town. Even Lord Wu An and Wei Xu had never challenged this hellish difficulty when they were alive.

However, no one complained.

They hugged their weapons and lay down. They closed their eyes and began to rest.

Su Xiaoxiao seized four hours and operated on the seriously injured. Then, she handed it to the medical officer in the army.

In addition, she left 2,000 people for Jia County. They were led by Fu Su and disguised as the Northern Yan army.

Zi Town was a total of 50 miles from Jia County, but because most of the roads were mountain roads, the roads were dangerous and brought considerable difficulty to the forceful army.

Heavy snowfall fell from the sky, and the cold wind whistled over with snowflakes. The army marched on the uneven mountain path against the cold snow.

Suddenly, a soldier slipped and fell towards the cliff at the side. Fortunately, Zhang Yong was behind him and pulled him over in time.

The army continued forward.

“Chirp chirp!” Wuhu in Jing Yi’s arms flapped their wings and cried out.

“Something’s wrong!” Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes turned cold. She raised her hand and gestured for him to stop.

The sergeants passed down the hand gestures one by one, and the army instantly stopped.

Everyone lay on the ground and quietly hid on the mountain range.

Su Xiaoxiao brought Jing Yi and Zhang Yong to a big tree and looked at a group of people on the official road ahead under the cover of the branches.

“It’s the cavalry and archers under Leng Kui,” Zhang Yong said. “That person in armor is Leng Kui. I know his armor.”

Leng Kui!

Su Xiaoxiao muttered this name in her heart. She raised her hand to take the golden bow on her back, drew an arrow, and pulled the bowstring, aiming at Leng Kui’s head.

Zhang Yong looked at her in shock.

Jing Yi’s gaze did not change at all.

Anyway, if she wanted to kill him, so be it. No matter if it was right or wrong, he would only protect her.

The bowstring was pulled taut, making a creaking sound, almost breaking.

However, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t shoot until Leng Kui turned the corner and disappeared at the end of the official road.

Zhang Yong relaxed.

An indescribable complicated feeling surged in his heart. For a moment just now, he hoped that she would kill Leng Kui.

However, after she let Leng Kui off, he actually felt relieved.

Leng Kui had brought at least 2,000 cavalry and archers, and there were a few generals beside him. If they killed him now, it would cause both sides to fight. Qin Canglan and the soldiers of Zi Town could not wait, and it would put the situation in the barbican into a passive state.

Not only did she not nurse personal grudges in her heart, but she also cared about the lives of the soldiers and the righteousness of her country.

“Continue on your way.”

Su Xiaoxiao put away her bow and returned to the team.

She would personally come and take Leng Kui’s life another day!

Zi Town.

This was the fourth day since Qin Canglan led the troops to the city. They had run out of food three days ago. When they were hungry, they would grab a handful of snow from the ground to eat.

Qin Canglan took out all his money to buy food, but the food in the city had long been bought by Leng Kui. The commoners did not have much leftover food for the winter. Some of the items that Qin Canglan barely bought were given to the injured soldiers and patients as a priority.

He had not eaten for three days.

Starvation and cold was not the most terrifying thing. What was terrifying was that after attacking continuously for the past few days, more and more soldiers had fallen. If this continued, they would not last through the night.

“Marshal. ”

Liu Ren walked up the city tower with unsteady steps. He was dizzy from hunger, his lips were dry and bleeding, and there were frostbites on his cheeks and the back of his hand.

He held a cornbread with both hands and handed it to Qin Canglan. “Marshal, eat some.”

Qin Canglan placed his hands behind his back and frowned. “Didn’t I ask you to send it to the injured soldiers?”

Liu Ren held back his sobs and said, “This was for Little Stone. He… left.” Qin Canglan closed his eyes in pain.

This old general, who had dedicated his life to the Great Zhou, could not help but tear up at this moment.

Liu Ren said, “Marshal, eat some first.”

Qin Canglan said, “Eat it. I can’t eat.”

Liu Ren said earnestly, “If you fall, this city will really not be able to hold on! The Qin family’s army is already on the way. If we persist… reinforcements and provisions will arrive…”

Qin Canglan looked at the snow that filled the sky. “The Qin family’s army… I’m afraid they won’t be able to make it. Leng Kui didn’t take all his troops away to fight to the death with Northern Yan.”

Liu Ren was stunned. “Then what does he want to do?”

Qin Canglan said coldly, “Guard the barbican and wait for peace talks.” “Well…

Qin Canglan said with a complicated expression, “If the Qin family’s army wants to come over, they have to pass through Yao City first. City Guardian Dou Xiao is Leng Kui’s trusted aide. He won’t open the city gate for the Qin family’s army unless someone deals with Dou Xiao. However, you and I know very well that this is impossible.”

Without Su MO, who would go against the Leng family at the border? Liu Ren swallowed. “Then what if… what if something happens to Dou Xiao?”

Qin Canglan looked at the Northern Yan tent downstairs. “It will take at least two days to arrive, but look, Northern Yan is preparing to attack the city again.”

“Damn it! Is there no end to it! This is the third time today! They’re forcing us to our deaths! They must know that we don’t have any rations and keep wasting us!”

Qin Canglan said, “Don’t be agitated. Save your strength.”

Qin Canglan did not eat a single bite of that cornbread. Liu Ren distributed it to the other weaker soldiers.

At night, Northern Yan attacked again.

The archers on the city gate tower were so hungry that they were dizzy and almost lost the strength to draw their bows. On the other hand, the arrows of Northern Yan were like an overwhelming rain of arrows that shot towards the soldiers on the city gate tower.

At the same time, the charger under the city tower slammed into the city gate.

THUD!

THUD!

THUD!

Again and again, the winch that was missing from the city gate loosened. The city gate was about to be knocked open!

Qin Canglan raised a spear and shot a Northern Yan soldier pushing a cart.

However, in the blink of an eye, another soldier took his place. They were energetic and full of energy. They were far from what the Great Zhou soldiers who had been hungry for four days could compare to.

“Set up the ladder!”

Accompanied by the shout of the Northern Yan general, towering ladders leaned against the city wall.

Qin Canglan slashed through the ladder!

A huge wave of dizziness hit him. He swayed, but held on to the city wall.

The soldiers of Northern Yan climbed the ladder. Qin Canglan led Liu Ren and the other generals to kill the enemy bravely. The difference in stamina was too great. They relied on hatred and obsession to fight.

In order to protect a soldier, Qin Canglan’s arm was cut by a Northern Yan soldier who jumped onto the city tower.

The Northern Yan general downstairs was overjoyed. “Everyone, look! Qin Canglan is injured! He can’t hold on anymore! Tonight, the reward for whoever takes Qin Canglan’s head is ten thousand….

Swish!

Before he could finish, a soul-stealing arrow sped over from behind and mercilessly shot off one his right ear with a destructive killing intent!

He covered the side of his ear, bowed, and let out a scream.

“General!” The Northern Yan soldiers exclaimed.

The Northern Yan general pulled the reins tightly and turned the horse around. He looked coldly at the night. “Who dares to ambush me?!”

The response was the uniform sound of hooves, the cold and murderous sound of armor rubbing against each other, and the majestic shouts of the soldiers.

“Roar! Roar! Roar!”

The entire ground seemed to be trembling.

The Northern Yan soldiers, who were attacking the city, were suddenly stunned..
