The first thousand three hundred thirty-eight chapters
Chapter 1,338 Disappointment
"I won't let them die."
Suddenly, Yi Xiaotian's words made Sun Shangxiang stop crying, and Sun Quan, who was struggling with how to comfort Sun Shangxiang, quickly withdrew his hand.
"Sir...you...what did you say..."
"I said, I won't let Ying'er and Ning'er die there like this."
"Sir... you are not doing this just to comfort me... No... it doesn't matter, sir, I... I understand, this is what you always wanted me to understand about the cruelty of the battlefield... In fact, ever since Ying'er and Ning'er joined the Jackal
After Wei, I had a hunch like this, but I didn’t expect..."
Sun Shangxiang wiped her tears and quickly smiled, as if she didn't want Yi Xiaotian to comfort her every time. Doesn't this mean that she hasn't made any progress in the past long time?
But Yi Xiaotian still shook his head, stared into Sun Shangxiang's eyes and said word by word:
"Maybe it's a premonition, but your arrival today has helped me confirm this -"
"Because I'm worried about you, I sent Zilong to Jiejiaping three days ago. At this speed, we might be able to catch up."
"What?"
"Isn't General Zhao recovering from his injuries?
I thought…"
Sun Quan was stunned when he heard the news. Sun Quan had never seen Zhao Yun on the battlefield since he came to the army. Even when he mentioned it to Yi Xiaotian, Yi Xiaotian always said that Zhao Yun's injury was not healed and he just kept him.
Be around.
In the end, Yi Xiaotian's words just now completely cleared up Sun Quan's confusion. It turned out that... Zhao Yun had been sent to a place like Xiejiaping by Yi Xiaotian without anyone noticing.
This is really...
In the midst of his astonishment, Sun Shangxiang's exclamation still startled Sun Quan.
Sun Shangxiang was overjoyed, because this was what Yi Xiaotian said while looking into her eyes, so she was sure that Yi Xiaotian did not lie to her.
Finally, the sad atmosphere in the venue was swept away.
And Sun Shangxiang's long-suppressed emotions completely burst out at this moment.
In the end, she couldn't say a word. Seeing Yi Xiaotian smile gently at her, Sun Shangxiang jumped into Yi Xiaotian's arms with a cry, and hit Yi Xiaotian's chest again and again.
"You're bad... you're so bad! Why... why are you talking about this kind of thing now... Wuwuwu... Ying'er... and Ning'er, they will definitely come back, Wuwuwu..."
"Isn't this all arranged? If you don't cry, you won't be like this next time, hahahaha..."
Yi Xiaotian pretended that his chest hurt from being beaten by Sun Shangxiang, but the smile on his face could not be faked.
It's just that... this scene made Sun Quan, who was just a short distance between the two, find it embarrassing.
Sun Quan even suspected that Sun Shangxiang did not regard him as his brother at all.
but…
After being angry for a while, Sun Quan laughed in relief.
Seeing his sister playing with Yi Xiaotian so intimately, isn't this the Sun Shangxiang he had expected to be happy again?
——
And just like Yi Xiaotian said, at this moment, Zhao Yun was riding his Zhaoye Jade Lion, one person and one gun at a time, on the road to Xiejiaping.
This is the first task that Yi Xiaotian has given him since he returned to Yi Xiaotian. With his own name on the line, Zhao Yun only has success and not failure in his heart.
…
At this moment, the Armor Removal Ping has become a battleground between the two sides.
He Zhen, the leader of the cavalry vanguard this time, quickly analyzed the strength of the enemy they faced——
"The opponent's number will never exceed a hundred people. We must defeat them in one go and don't give the opponent any chance to breathe!"
At present, they had been entangled with the enemy for a whole day, and what He Zhen had to admit was that the reason why the scouts sent by General Mi Fang failed to form effective communication with the army in Wancheng was due to the armor-removing platform.
The terrain was almost like a single-plank bridge, and these enemies, which were very few in number, had powerful combat power that ordinary scouts could not match. It was understandable that they lost.
But things are different now.
Although the enemy was still using the terrain to deal with them, in this day, he not only figured out the number of enemies, but also realized the shortcomings of the enemy's physical strength.
Yes, in the first half day, although they had an absolute advantage in strength, they were unable to cause any effective damage to the enemy.
The opponent regards Xiejiaping Mountain as their home, and they know the terrain and various ambush points by heart.
Relying on these advantages, the opponent did suppress their progress for a time.
But this is only temporary.
Only half a day later, thanks to He Zhen's fast and accurate command and the precise combat methods of everyone in the team, the enemy's success rate in attacking them dropped rapidly.
Not only that, the enemy who had always been able to hide behind sneak attacks before was finally caught by He Zhen.
At the last hour of the day, night fell quietly. Pretending to rest, He Zhen gathered in a sheltered valley on the mountainside. He suddenly ordered an attack. Following the traces of the enemy he had found during the day, he killed them in one fell swoop.
Nearly twenty enemies.
At this moment, after killing all the enemies who seemed to be a small team, He Zhen issued an order to pursue.
However... the night can serve as their cover, and it will naturally hide the enemy's traces to a certain extent.
Soon after, He Zhen returned without success and chose to recall his troops.
At the same time, while cleaning up the enemy's corpses, He Zhen's men discovered a very shocking fact.
"Commander! These enemies... seem to be all women!"
"What did you say?"
He Zhen was also confused. Following the guidance of his subordinates, he quickly rushed to the corpses of the enemies. He saw his subordinates uncovering the masks of the black-clothed enemies one by one. When he saw the faces revealed from under the masks, He Zhenzu was shocked.
He was stunned in place for a long time and could not wake up.
"No wonder...when fighting these people during the day, there is always something strange that cannot be explained. Now everything is explained."
He Zhen breathed a long sigh of relief and finally understood what he was doubting:
"Whether it is in terms of their strength or physical strength, they have an absolute disadvantage. Otherwise, based on the traps we have fallen into several times before, if strong men were responsible for handling them, our casualties would have been even more severe."
Everyone nodded, acquiescing to this.
At first they were caught off guard, and the enemy's endless traps made them a little difficult to move.
But later on, the opponent was clearly exhausted, and they gained the upper hand. This was the original reason.
only…
He Zhen couldn't get excited, but felt disappointed.
"Huh...it turns out that I have been entangled with a group of women for so long. If I tell you, I'm afraid I will be laughed at by the brothers in the camp."
"But if that's the case, then this matter will be easier to deal with... Humph, a bunch of stinky bitches dare to tease me, and I don't know what Sun Quan thinks, so he would let a bunch of women come here to stop us."
He said fiercely, as if he no longer took Ying'er and the others into his eyes.
