Chapter 1298 The Enemy Retreats

The Dali Temple officials standing on the high slope saw the whole scene, and their eyes were full of admiration.

In addition, they might have guessed who the wronged person mentioned in the imperial edict was.

At the same time, they also understood why Ye Zifen was so anxious on the road.

It seems that the military camp in the north is about to undergo a radical change.

Perhaps it was because of Ye Zifen's joining that the morale of our soldiers was greatly boosted.

Those soldiers who were not wearing armor were even more excited. They followed the footsteps of the two people in front of them closely and fought bravely.

It seemed that the change in formation had put the enemy in disarray.

How can we continue to fight against this group of scattered people?

On the battlefield, the east wind always prevails over the west wind, or the west wind always prevails over the east wind.

At this moment, because our morale was high, the enemy began to retreat.

When more than half of the enemy troops were killed or wounded, a burly man with a strong build sat upright on horseback and blew the horn to retreat.

Ye Zifen and Zhang Gaoyi did not chase after them because there were quite a few injured people on their side.

So the two of them stood there like sculptures, watching coldly as the enemy troops retreated step by step like a tide, their expressions extremely grim.

At this time, Ye Zifen's face was covered with blood, but her fox-like eyes were still bright, revealing a cold and sharp light, which contrasted with her cold face, giving people a feeling that an evil star had arrived.

She just stood there quietly, staring coldly ahead, as if the whole world had nothing to do with her.

However, when she heard Zhang Gaoyi's voice, this indifferent expression did not change at all.

"Why did you come here in person? Didn't Ziwei say she was coming with people? Have you entered the capital?"

Nearly a year had passed, and when Ye Zifen heard the familiar voice again, there was not much emotion in her heart. She just turned her head slowly, glanced at Zhang Gaoyi's injured arm, and then turned her head back silently.

Her tone was cold and emotionless as she said, "You should clean up the battlefield. When you return to the barracks, just pretend you don't know me."

After he finished speaking, he threw down a small porcelain bottle. Zhang Gaoyi was very familiar with this. This was an external injury medicine developed by Doctor Shangguan, and the effect was amazing!

Zhang Gaoyi originally thought that Ye Zifen was still angry with him and wanted to chase her to explain.

But when he saw Ye Zifen running towards the distant hillside, he hesitated.

In fact, Ye Zifen still cares about him very much, otherwise she wouldn't have looked at his arm and asked him to clean up the battlefield quickly. Isn't that just asking him to get treatment quickly?

He looked around at his brothers who were lying on the ground injured and groaning in pain, and his heart was filled with endless self-blame and guilt.

He knew that he had the responsibility to protect them, but faced with the predicament, he felt powerless.

However, he could not abandon these brothers who fought alongside him, so he resolutely stopped and turned to join the operation of clearing the battlefield.

He quickly shuttled across the bloody battlefield, doing his best to take care of every wounded soldier.

He carefully lifted the bodies of the injured, gently wiped the blood off their bodies, and gave them warm care and comfort.

At the same time, he and other survivors struggled to escort the wounded back to a relatively safe place, hoping to give them more chances of survival.

Just as they were busy, several guards at the gate of the military camp suddenly gathered towards him.

They walked quickly to Zhang Gaoyi and Ye Zihong and brought exciting news: "It seems that Zifen came here on the orders of the emperor. We finally see hope!"

One of them said excitedly. Then, another person also added excitedly: "The emperor's edict clearly stated that we were wronged and allowed us to return to our hometown and receive due compensation. It seems that we are about to leave this place of right and wrong."

Hearing these words, Zhang Gaoyi's face did not show much joy.

Instead, he frowned and said worriedly: "I don't know if the general will let us go easily, and even if we can leave, what about the people who are left here? They are all trained by us, are we going to watch them die?"

After hearing Zhang Gaoyi's words, the few people who were originally immersed in joy suddenly became depressed. The smiles on their faces gradually disappeared, and were replaced by frustration and confusion.

When Ye Zifen was running up the hillside, several people on the hillside also rode down on horseback, and soon the two groups met up.

The Dali Temple Minister could not help but say excitedly: "Little girl, you are really good! Seeing you shuttle back and forth among the enemy troops and fight so heartily, it really makes my blood boil."

However, Ye Zifen still had a cold look on her face, but she responded after he finished speaking: "Sir, you should think about how to explain to General Zhenbei that I cut off that man's arm with my sword! I never thought that there would be such a despicable villain in our army who would sneak attack our own people from behind!"

The Dali Temple Minister replied nonchalantly, "You've already said that the man attacked his own people from behind. Why should I explain anything to General Zhenbei? The one who really needs to explain is probably General Zhenbei! Girl, that knife just now really flew into my heart! When I return, I will immediately write a letter to the emperor to report this matter."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zifen raised her eyebrows slightly, then turned her horse's head and walked towards the battlefield with the Dali Temple Minister.

She thought to herself: This Dali Temple Minister is an interesting person...

Watching them slowly approaching, General Zhenbei rode forward, his eyes filled with complex emotions as he stared at Ye Zifen closely.

He really couldn't imagine that a seemingly weak little girl could wield a sword so quickly. To be honest, it really amazed him.

However, it was this little girl's knife that cut off the arm of her benefactor's son, which put General Zhenbei in a difficult situation.

He couldn't help but wonder how to properly handle this tricky matter.

More importantly, in full view of everyone, everyone on the battlefield witnessed the boy's sneak attack on Zhang Gaoyi.

Therefore, it can be said that the blow was completely in vain. I am afraid that even if he had lost an arm, the little girl would not give up.
