C321 Withdrawal

"I'll go." When General Shi saw the troops below, her face turned gloomy. Did they bring all their troops over?

After they snatched the food from the Zhennan King, they knew that they would not let this go easily. The Marshal Xiahou had already secretly mobilized his troops.

Right now, it all depended on how fast their reinforcements came. The opponent's offense was too strong.

General Shi turned around and saw Li Hao, "Your Highness, why are you still here? "Hurry up and go back."

If it was anyone else, General Shi would have shouted loudly a long time ago. After spending some time with Li Hao in the past few days, General Shi's opinion of him had begun to increase day by day.

That was why General Shi added a supporting phrase when he felt his tone to be stiff.

"Our warriors are fighting with their lives on the line here, how can I go back and rest peacefully? General Shi doesn't have to say anymore."

Li Hao had worn armor when he came today, and his guards knew that they couldn't persuade him otherwise. They could only pretend to be confused and follow along to protect Li Hao.

When General Shi heard it, although he admired it in his heart, for the sake of Li Hao's safety, he decided to call him down.

The General Shi snorted coldly, and then moved closer to Li Hao, "My prince, don't try to show off. I heard that you were hit by an arrow yesterday."

With that, the General Shi deliberately pushed at Li Hao's wounds.

Li Hao was pushed back two steps.

Seeing that, Ding Ding immediately went forward to support her.

"General Shi clearly knows that my Prince was injured, but he still chose to apply it to his wounds …"

Li Hao reached out his hand to stop Ding Ding from speaking further.

He pushed Ding Ding aside, and took two steps forward, "General Shi, I remembers that you once said that as a man, you don't have the scars that you left on your body on the battlefield.

General Shi was stunned.

Li Hao laughed out loud, "It's just a small wound, it's nothing serious, I is willing to fight alongside the general."

"Alright, alright." The three armies raised their weapons and cheered.

The approaching enemy raised his face and looked up.

The one leading was Ming Xia's older brother, Shao Mingyuan.

He narrowed his eyes and raised his hand. The soldiers behind him brought over a ladder.

"Big brother."

A person suddenly appeared behind everyone and cupped his hands towards Shao Mingyuan.

"Ming Xia, why are you here?"

Ming Xia walked to Shao Mingyuan's side and said, "Father asked me to pass this message to you …"

Ming Xia instructed in a low voice.

Shao Mingyuan looked up at Ming Xia and said, "Alright."

Shao Ming raised his voice and said, "Retreat five miles and set up camp on the spot."

Everyone was puzzled. However, they had to obey the orders given by their superiors.

When Du Jinse heard the deafening noise outside the city, she was worried in her heart. It was just that she had almost been discovered by Li Hao just a moment ago.

In the blink of an eye, she saw Cao Er carrying food box and walking up the city walls.

Cao Er should be happy, but because of her, Cao Er was actually quite attentive towards the Duke. For some reason, Du Jinse actually wasn't happy at all.

"General Shi, so it turns out that Your Highness is here as well." Cao Er said in delight.

General Shi was not afraid of anything, but was afraid of women.

In the recent days, when Cao Er had been somewhat diligent when she came to the city wall, he had hid away. She did not expect that she would come here at such a critical juncture.

General Shi's face became serious, "What are you doing here, you're a woman, what are you doing in the city? Hurry up and go."

With that, General Shi went to check on the movements outside of the city. Seeing that the enemy troops had all retreated, he muttered: "Why have they all retreated?"

Cao Er rolled her eyes, "I'm not here to look for the general."

Cao Er walked over to Li Hao's side.

"Your Royal Highness, the injuries on your body have yet to heal. Why are you here?"

Li Hao looked up slightly, pretending as if he didn't hear what she said.

If it was anyone else, they would have already been ashamed of losing face in front of so many people.

Cao Er was unconcerned, she looked around, and even looked at the city walls.

General Shi saw that, so he pulled her over and said angrily: "You don't know your place! Someone, chase her out of the city!"

Cao Er was the most reckless woman he had ever seen.

Alright, Cao Er probably had good food while she was in the Marshal's Mansion. She was almost scuttled and opened her mouth a little, making him look like a woman.

"I'm not here to see you, Prince."

Cao Er asked Li Hao for help.

Li Hao said coldly: "General is still too merciful. Since she wants to die so much, why don't you help her throw her off this stage."

When Cao Er heard it, she immediately shut her mouth obediently. The tears in her eyes rolled around, unspeakable making him feel pity for her.

Although she had always wanted to challenge Prince Mo's bottom line, she still cherished her life a lot.

When the crowd saw her, they could not bear to do so. It was as if Li Hao and the others were the ones bullying her.

However, everyone present knew that this was a battlefield, so how could they have the leisure to pity the fairer sex? "The young lady should leave by herself, don't make things difficult for us."

Two soldiers came up and chased Cao Er out with a straight face.

Cao Er bit her lips, took a glance at Li Hao, and then silently turned and left.

General Shi looked at Cao Er and sighed: "This little girl probably read too many books. Duke, your luck with women is not shallow."

When the soldiers heard this, they roared with laughter.

Li Hao had been together with them for a long time and knew that they had no ill intentions. He only occasionally cracked a vulgar joke and his expression did not change, "The one from I's family is the same as General Shi, a tigress. I does not dare to have any alluring thoughts."

Everyone's eyes could not help but look at General Shi.

General Shi scratched the back of his head in embarrassment as he gave a bluff, "What are you looking at? This old man is looking at you with respect, do you understand?"

Seeing that the enemy troops had retreated, everyone was relieved. Seeing General Shi like this, they could not brazenly make fun of him, they could only hold in their laughter, and worked hard, their shoulders shaking violently.

General Shi looked left and right, seeing everyone like that, he said helplessly: "Enough, there's no need to hold back anymore, if you want to laugh then laugh."

Li Hao laughed first.

Everyone looked at each other, and seeing Li Hao taking the lead to laugh, everyone also laughed.

His laughter traveled outside the city, causing Shao Mingyuan and Ming Xia to turn around to take a look.

Shao Mingyuan snorted coldly, "You don't know your place."

However, Ming Xia's heart was heavy.

Why had he come to the border? Back then, when he had refused the marriage, he had indeed mentioned that he would rather guard the border than marry her. But why had he come to this place? Could it be because he refused her marriage and the Emperor punished him, that he intentionally sent him here?

It was just as Ming Xia had said, she couldn't make decisions for herself.

Therefore, she did not have much feelings for King Mo. She was not willing to have anything to say.

To think that she would lose to a domestic prostitute, it was truly a great shame and humiliation.

Although Ming Xia knew that King Mo did this to humiliate her, she couldn't help but be furious.
