Chapter 365 Military orders are like mountains
As expected, news of King Mo's serious injury was relayed back.
"Where's the spy?" Chu Yueli slept all afternoon.
Waking up at this moment, the fatigue from days of traveling had completely disappeared.
Lei Ting brought in the scout, who was from Heng County. This time, even the city lord of Heng County had come.
“Miss Li, our spies have been traveling in the Xishan mountain range for many years. They are very experienced and their information is accurate.” The city lord was extremely anxious at this moment.
The city was filled with soldiers brought by Prince Mo. It turned out that Prince Mo had only brought a hundred men to Xishan. Even the city lord did not know this until the main army had withdrawn back into the city.
The soldiers were lying in ambush outside the city, their movements were very low-key, clearly indicating that they were intentionally hiding.
But why?
He looked at Chu Yueli one last time: "Miss, the prince has left a large army in Heng County. Could it be that our Heng County is about to face a great calamity?"
Chu Yueli had been here before, and everyone had a deep impression of her.
Miss Li's reputation is well-deserved; last time, she single-handedly saved Prince Jin!
"I don't know." Chu Yueli didn't explain to him. After asking the scouts for some information, she looked at Lei Ting and said, "Take the brothers and head to Xishan immediately to rescue Prince Mo."
"Then what about our Hengxian City..." The city lord was sweating profusely with anxiety.
After making a scene all day, they just came in, and now they're leaving again?
The people were filled with fear as they watched the army enter the city!
"The rebels are all in Xishan, so Hengxian City will be safe. Here's what we'll do: City Lord, go and gather a thousand soldiers. I'll stay here and defend the city with you." Chu Yueli seemed a little impatient and waved her hand to dismiss the city lord.
Not long after, the city lord indeed summoned a thousand soldiers. However, unexpectedly, Chu Yueli left the soldiers in the makeshift military camp and sent the city lord back to his residence to rest.
After the city lord left, Lei Ting looked at Chu Yueli and said, "Do you really want me to go to Xishan? If I leave, what will you do, young lady?"
Although they already had a plan, he couldn't provide the expert the girl wanted. All he could offer her now were his brothers in the army.
Everyone here is a skilled fighter, but when it comes to leading soldiers, none of them have any experience.
Originally, the team of a thousand people had enough generals, including the prince, Jing Lei Liu Yun, himself, and Lei Xiao. But now, only Chu Yue Li remains.
"Don't worry, just do as I say and have the soldiers change their clothes. You can take the brothers from Hengxian City out for a stroll."
Chu Yueli remained expressionless. Despite the numerous difficulties, Lei Ting could not detect a trace of worry on her fair and delicate face.
This young girl, at such a young age, has such an aura that is truly one in a million.
But he was still worried: "Miss, perhaps I should stay..."
“If you don’t leave, they won’t believe that the army has left, and they will continue to delay until they are sure of the situation before they make their move.”
Chu Yueli looked up and met his gaze: "But we can't wait any longer. Bei Mo and the brothers are trapped in the Stone Forest. If they don't come out for a day, they will all be in danger. Without food and water, they won't survive for long."
The longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes.
Tonight, the crisis in Hengxian County must be resolved!
She had to go find Lu Beimo!
"Thunder, go now!"
Military orders are absolute; if he disobeys, she will have to bring up what King Mo said before.
When he's not around, everyone has to listen to her!
Lei Ting had no choice but to grit his teeth and hurriedly said, "Yes!"
