"2000 people!?"
The servants exclaimed.
Two thousand against an army of eight thousand … wasn't that just sending them to their deaths?
"Only two thousand people will be allocated. The remaining two thousand will be given to the commanders and officers to command. From now on, there is no need to ask me any further. Everything will be left to the other lords to decide." Gu Liuyan said casually.
Although the attendants outside thought that these things were strange, they could only inform the other generals.
With one hand on his lower abdomen, the other hand took out two boxes of medicine from the medicine box. One box was given to Duan Chengxuan, while the other box had already been opened by her, and after mixing the strange colored powder with the warm water in the cup, he drank it all in one gulp.
Gu Pingyan frowned because of the bitterness. He frowned and pushed the empty cup away a bit, "This is an antidote. If there's anything else, you can use the medicine in your box to mix it with water for me." Press
"What dangerous thing are you going to do?" Duan Chengxuan clenched his fist tightly.
"I'm afraid I'll lose my baby's breath when I run, just in case." Gu Liuyan stretched out her hand to shake Duan Chengxuan's. "In any case, you're still by my side. If you're not here, I'll hand this medicine over to a ghost."
Duan Chengxuan took a deep breath for a while, as no one had ever been able to anger him time and time again.
"You always put yourself in danger. You just can't learn to take care of yourself. When we leave, I will bring you back to the borders. " Duan Cheng Xuan grabbed her wrist with a backhand move, and her chest violently heaved up and down. "Don't really force me to tie it up."
Gu Liuyan curled up for a moment, but Duan Chengxuan could only think of a way to suppress the rage on his face and slow down his tone. "I'm still not very good at controlling my temper, so don't try to anger me and guarantee your own safety!"
That was why she didn't want Duan Chengxuan to come to her side.
"I... Try your best. " Gu Danyan forcefully pulled his hand away and rubbed his aching wrist.
"You!" Duan Cheng Xuan smashed the table, causing the veins on her forehead to bulge.
This woman did not know how to repent!
"I am speaking the truth, and don't think that I can be controlled by you, I can do anything! This battle should have started no matter what, and you have to guarantee my safety. You can't even ask me to do such a thing, and you're still angry at me here! " Gu Danyan also slammed the table in anger: "I, Gu Danyan, am not the kind of person to be manipulated by others!"
"Therefore, what other meaning is there for you to help Jiang Yan fight here other than to hide from me!" Duan Chengxuan immediately slammed the table and stood up, his eyes glared angrily, and his voice practically squeezed out from his throat. "Don't meddle in other people's business, can't you just stay here properly!"
"No." Gu Liuyan also looked at her angrily: "I clearly have the ability to help these people, but you actually made me ignore you? I can't do it. "
"You're just used to meddling in other people's business." Duan Cheng Xuan raised his hand to press it against her forehead, and in her heart she reminded herself countless times that he couldn't fuss about it with her at this critical moment.
"Why can't I be nosy! I want to rebel with Lai Xuan and hand Gu Cheng over to mother with my own hands. I want to overthrow the ancient systems of Ayane and Jiang Yan, too. I want to see those poor children not born into slavery! " Gu Danyan followed and stood up as well. He used one hand to prop himself up on the table as he pointed at Duan Chengxuan's nose and said, "The things I do are the same as when you stood up for your country and destroyed its territory!"
"We're all the same kind of people, just like how you could take a city with you and threaten Jiang Yan. What's wrong with all of us being nosy and doing what we think is right! " Gu Liuyan slammed her other hand on the table, gasping for air.
Duan Chengxuan opened his mouth, wanting to say that it was his responsibility as a prince.
But in reality, no one had ever asked him to fight for territory or to defend against external enemies, and no one had ever completely asked him to prepare for Duan Chengyu and secure the throne for his elder brother.
No matter what he did, it was all because he wanted to do it.
Stunned, he looked at Gu Pingyan, who was clutching his chest and gasping for air. The anger in his heart immediately disappeared without a trace, and he walked up to her and helped her sit down, "Just take it as if you're not meddling in other people's business. You should care about yourself a bit."
"Then why are you still arguing with me? Contemplation over this? " Gu Danyan grabbed his collar, but at some point, his eyes had turned red: "Since things have come to this, I'll leave with you after I finish what I have to do!"
He didn't expect that she would compromise first.
At this moment, the remaining bit of fury in Duan Chengxuan's heart had finally disappeared, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he embraced her. "It's my fault."
"Then I'll stay and help …"
"I'm going to tie you up and tie you up. Your mouth is covered too. Your clothes are on your shoulders and you can cry. Your body is also free to be punched and kicked." Duan Chengxuan fiercely pressed her into his embrace, and his other hand lightly brushed her back as he consoled her.
After hugging for a long time, Gu Danyan gently pushed him away: "I don't know why I'm arguing with you."
"You won't let me speak of love, and you won't argue with me?" Duan Chengxuan patted her head.
"I'm very angry when I quarrel with you. I should be nurturing my baby." Gu Danyan pushed his head away and slowly stood up: "You should shut up and listen to my orders. After you leave, as long as you don't beat up my child, you can take me anywhere you want."
Duan Cheng Xuan was slightly angered.
"Why did you send 2,000 people out to face the enemy and outnumber them?" Duan Chengxuan could only change the topic, but he could still hear the unbearably noisy streets and streets in his ears. Presumably, the city had long since been thrown into chaos.
Smoke and dust filled the air. Even without the eight thousand soldiers, the mountain fire was enough to destroy the city.
"These days, all the craftsmen in the city have been gathering in the west part of the city." Gu Ming Yan rested and checked the items in the bag. She continued, "From the very beginning, Lai Xuan and I have been at odds with each other over whether to leave or leave this city. We're only going to take a step back."
As his voice faded, Duan Chengxuan's face revealed slight astonishment, as if he felt that Gu Daiyan's actions were somewhat inconceivable. "This is …"
The city wall has been in disrepair for a long time, and because the battles on both sides were not repaired, the craftsmen could use the fastest speed to empty the outer layer of the city wall. If they wanted to push it down, they would only need to ignite the flame of the thunderclaps, and if no one attacked, the city wall would collapse after a few months. Gu Liuyan looked at Duan Chengxuan with an indifferent expression. "Because a hole has already been opened under the city walls. The things within the city have already been continuously being transported out a few days ago."
