Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

Wu Yong's face changed and he shouted, "Who the hell are you? How dare you question me? When you generals see me, you have to be polite. You are really brave."

"Come here, teach this officer, the centurion, what the rules are."

Si An was pinned down by the officers and beaten violently. Lin Zhu, who accompanied him, knelt down and begged, "Sir Wu, our centurion was just impulsive and has absolutely no complaints against you. Please forgive him this time."

"If we continue to fight like this, someone will die."

Seeing blood oozing from his mouth and nose, and him gritting his teeth without saying a word, Lin Zhu clenched his fists. He was so angry that his teeth were itching. How could the court treat them like this? God is so blind.

After a while, Wu Yong saw that the man was covered in blood, so he pretended to be relaxed and said, "Okay, forgive him this time. If he speaks rudely next time, I will not let him off easily."

Si An spat out a mouthful of blood and mumbled: "Lin Zhu, you are not allowed to beg..."

Before he could finish his words, his head tilted and he fainted. Lin Zhu rushed over and shouted, "Centurion, wake up! Someone, come and save him."

Wu Yong raised his eyebrows when he saw this. After all, he was going to enter the Mohist military camp. He could bully people, but if someone died, he would not be able to explain it. He winked at the old man next to him.

"Well, let's go and have a look. If someone really dies, that would be bad luck."

The old man stepped forward to feel the patient's pulse, stuffed a pill into his mouth, and said calmly, "It's nothing, just some skin injuries. Apply some golden wound medicine to him, and he will be fine in two days. There's no need to make a fuss."

Lin Zhu lowered his head upon hearing this and watched over Si An in silence.

After an unknown amount of time, Si An woke up slowly and reached out to tug at the clothes of the person next to him: "Lin Zhu, where are we now?"

"To reply to the centurion, we still have ten miles to go before we reach the military camp. When the time comes, let the military doctor check you out. Don't get any internal injuries. Those can be lifelong problems."

Si An sat up from the cart and coughed twice. "It's okay, it's just a skin wound that looks scary. No need to see a doctor. Oh, by the way, send a pigeon to tell the news here to the Major General."

"The officials who came to deliver the food this time are obviously more difficult to deal with. Inform the major general in advance so that he can be prepared. Don't cough, you really got tricked by accident."

Lin Zhu nodded, slowed down his pace, fell behind, entered the woods while no one was paying attention, wrote a note and sent it back by carrier pigeon.

The next morning, the pigeon landed outside the tent. Gongzi Yu took the note and went into the tent, saying respectfully, "Major General, this is Si An's carrier pigeon. I'm afraid there's something wrong with the food and fodder."

Mo Yuan took it and took a quick glance. His eyes darkened and he slammed the table. "They are so bold. The food they sent this time is not even as good as the inferior food they sent before. Such food can't support the consumption of war at all."

Gongzi Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "Major General, they must have hidden the good food. If we can force them to reveal it, then..."

"Someone, go tell Wang Xiaosan to come over here."

The guard outside the tent turned around and walked towards the training ground, calling the people who were training over. Jiang Li asked in confusion: "Brother Guard, what does the Major General want to see me about?"

"I don't know. Captain Jiang will find out when he goes there."

Jiang Li lifted the curtain and came in, looking at him straight in the eyes. Hey, the young general seems to be in a bad mood today. Why? She has been training the troops honestly recently and has not caused any trouble.

"Young General, I wonder why I am looking for a subordinate..."

Mo Yuan stood up and said, "Come on, follow me to get the food and grass. Can you ride a horse?"

"No...I can't ride."

Jiang Li followed him in confusion, not understanding why they had to go to pick up the food supplies so suddenly. Wasn't Si An going there? Why would so many people be needed? Who was so arrogant?

"Major General, let's go on horseback."

"Well, ride faster."

"Oh, I see."

Mo Yuan led Ji Feng out of the stable, climbed onto the horse, and held out his hand: "Wang Xiaosan, hold on to my hand."

Jiang Li looked at the bony hand in front of him and hesitated: "Major General, is it not a good idea for two of us to ride on one horse?"

"It's okay, you look small and not heavy, come on up."

"Oh, okay then."

With the help of his hand, Jiang Li exerted force and sat on the horse. Realizing that there was someone behind him, he straightened his body unconsciously for fear of bumping into the other person.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, so we could only find a topic to talk about: "Major General, what happened?"

Mo Yuan tightened the reins and hummed, "Are you wondering why I took you with me?"

"Yes, I don't understand."

"There's something wrong with the food this time. The food they sent was mixed with gravel and sand. It's totally inedible. I took you with me because you're strong. Let's go find some good food so it's easier to carry out."

Jiang Li nodded. It turned out that she was a porter. The major general was impressed by her strength. No wonder he brought her here. She was worth ten people alone.

"Major General, do you know where they hide the good food?"

"I don't know"

"…Then how can we find it? If it's too far away, there's no way to transport it back."

Mo Yuan said faintly: "Not too far."

He didn't want to talk about the other things. That was the humiliation of the Mohist Army and he didn't want to mention it.

The horses were galloping and the two arrived quickly. Looking at the grain escort team not far away, Jiang Li clearly felt that the cold aura emitted by the person behind him was even stronger. It seemed that those who delivered the grain had completely angered people this time.

Thinking of the grain mixed with sand, Jiang Li narrowed his eyes and thought about something in his mind.

When Wu Yong saw them coming, he took a step forward with a hypocritical smile on his face: "Oh, it's the Major General who came to pick me up personally. It's such an honor for me. I wonder if the Major General..."

Mo Yuan looked at him coldly and raised his hand to signal: "Shut up, where are the food and the general's men?"

"Yes, in the back."

Wu Yong was a little confused. What was going on? The escorting officers had said before that the general was easy to talk to, but why was the young general who came this time so tough? It was... a bit scary.

Jiang Li ran over and saw Si An, whose face was pale and body was covered in blood. He frowned, wondering how could he be so badly injured.

"Major General, why are you here?"

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone standing by with a look of surprise in his eyes: "Wang Xiaosan, why are you here with the Major General?"

Jiang Li shrugged: "Don't ask me, I don't know the situation either. Just listen to the young general. We can talk about the rest when we get back. It's not convenient to talk here."

Mo Yuan turned around and strode to Wu Yong. Before he could say anything, he kicked him out with a fierce look in his eyes: "I, Mo Yuan, am the most protective of my people. How dare you touch someone from the Mo Family Army? You are so bold."

Wu Yong spat out a mouthful of blood and stretched out his hand tremblingly: "Young General, you, you really are..."
