He sighed, “I’m afraid more people will die tomorrow.” It’s a good thing we have you. Otherwise, even more people would have died in this battle.”
After Zhang Kaitai finished speaking, he saw Xu Qi ‘an’s convulsing hand and his smile disappeared. “How are your injuries?”
Xu Qi ‘an was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head. “My injuries are still fine, I just need to rest for a night, but ..
He paused and did not continue.
“On the battlefield, the most taboo thing is to hide information,” Zhang Kaitai frowned.
Xu Qi ‘an hesitated. I don’t have any more cards.
Then, they fell into silence.
After a long time, Zhang Kaitai sighed and said, “you can go.”
The usually unsmiling swordsman forced a smile and said, almost forgot that you’re still a rank- 5. Our brothers all think that you’re a top master, the kind of master who’s stronger than all of us.
“I won’t tell anyone about this secret. Yes, I told you that you went to get reinforcements. Since you no longer have any trump cards, it is not suitable for you to remain here. Tomorrow, nurheka will definitely target you to kill you, be it for revenge or to raise our morale.”
He walked to the wall and held the parapet with one hand. He pointed at the enemy soldiers who were making a bonfire in the distance with the other and grinned.
look, the morale of the Army is stable now. With nurhejia around, the Kang Army will not be in a state of panic. Perhaps they will attack the city with hatred tomorrow and even risk their lives.
“If I leave, the morale that I’ve gathered with great difficulty will be scattered again.” Xu Qi ‘an shook his head.
“Of course you have to call for reinforcements and inform the Imperial court.
Daoist priest Li can fly on a sword and is very fast. I’ll try my best to hold on until the reinforcements arrive.
“I won’t be leaving. Duke of Wei is staying here, so are my brothers. If we leave, what about the people behind us? Forty years ago, the witch God religion had once slaughtered the Xiang, Jing and Yu provinces. We can’t repeat the same mistake.”
When this man spoke, he was Frank and calm.
If a jar broke from the mouth of the well, the general would inevitably die in front of the battle.
They were all good homes.
There won’t be any reinforcements. At least, you won’t be able to see them … Xu Qi ‘an opened his mouth, but he couldn’t bear to tell him the truth.
At this moment, he saw a general holding a saber with one hand and slowly walking on the city wall. As he walked, he shouted, ”
“Outside Yuyang pass are the people of Xiang province. We have no place to retreat. This was the witch God religion’s last counterattack. As long as they could survive this attack, they would be able to win. We still have the Imperial court’s reinforcements, so we have to hold on until they arrive.”
The general immediately saw Xu Qi ‘an and said excitedly, ‘”With Xu yinluo here, the witchcraft cult can forget about attacking the city. When nurheka returns tomorrow, he will not be able to return.”
The eyes of the surrounding soldiers lit up.
Today, Xu Qi ‘an had fought nurhejia, killed the ancient Red Bear, and forced the enemy to retreat. This was something that everyone had witnessed.
As expected of Xu yinluo, her sword strike was beautiful.
With Xu yinluo around, the witchcraft cult was nothing to be worried about.
He always made people feel at ease, and he could always do things beautifully.
He had never disappointed the people of Da Feng.
Xu Qi ‘an walked forward silently under the expectant eyes of the crowd. He came to an empty corner and looked down at the enemy’s camp in the distance, lost in thought.
The Worshipful gazes of the soldiers just now made him feel a little ashamed.
“You’re leaving? If we don’t leave, we might die.”
Behind him, li Miaozhen appeared in a Daoist robe.
Xu Qi ‘an was silent for a long time, then responded with a smile, “”Do I look like someone who can walk?”
“You’re hesitating!”
“You didn’t reject Zhang Kaitai just now, did you?” li Miaozhen shook her head.
A book was thrown in front of her.
Li Miaozhen looked down and saw that it was a thin book with only a cover left.
“No more, there’s only one page left.” Xu Qi ‘an looked into the distance and said in a low voice,
I don’t want to leave, but I don’t have any more trump cards. People have to admit their own flaws, and my biggest flaw is that I’m not strong enough.
The spiritual spell books given to him by Zhao Shou were almost exhausted.
The last page was about the Confucian school’s ‘absolute command’.
No matter how useful an item was, it would be exhausted one day. Even though he had been very thrifty ever since he left for Chu Zhou, he had used up most of his energy after such a long time.
“When you killed the two high Dukes at Caishikou, why didn’t you feel that you weren’t strong enough?”
Li Miaozhen clearly saw the man’s shoulder tremble.
She looked at him, her eyes filled with pity and sadness.
“After Wei Yuan died, your spine felt like it was broken. Although you act as if nothing has happened, I can feel that you’re panicking. Without this backing, you have no confidence in doing anything.”
The night wind howled, bringing with it a bone-piercing chill.
“You’re right,” Xu Qi ‘an said softly,”l used to be so high-spirited because I had too many things to rely on. Duke Wei can always help me settle the pressure from the Imperial court, help me block the conspiracies and open schemes of the officialdom, and give me the best resources.
“If I have any questions, difficulties, or perplexity, the first thing I think of is to find him. Including when the purple Lotus demonic Dao locked onto me …
“Duke Wei has settled everything for me. With him around, I have no worries. After killing the Duke, the Emperor tolerated me again and again. Now that I think about it, it wasn’t just because of the supervisor but also because of the Duke of Wei. He is not a weak scholar. The entire capital knows that I am his trusted aide. Even the Emperor has to be wary of him.” but he suddenly left just like that. I … I was very heartbroken and at a loss ….
