Four Lifetimes Dream
Chapter 178: Would Rather Die Than Retreat
A few days later, at the border:
"Your Highness, we have run out of food and grass. My brothers haven't eaten for several days. I'm afraid..."
Inside the tent, a general fell silent while speaking. These past few days, the soldiers could only survive by drinking water.
They had been out of food for a long time, and all their war horses had been killed, but they still could not resolve the crisis.
How can they fight again if they can’t even solve the food problem?
"Hold on a little longer, the imperial court has sent support!" Li Yin said in a deep voice.
When he said this, even he himself didn't quite believe it!
The court responded a long time ago that they had sent people over, and it would only take half a month to travel there. But it has been almost a month and the reinforcements have not arrived yet!
Does the Emperor really intend to give up on them?
It doesn’t matter if he died, but these soldiers… they are so innocent!
But Li Yin also knew that as a general, he could not say discouraging words, lest he cause his soldiers to lose confidence!
He promised them that he would take them home...
"Report!" At this time, a voice of notification came from outside the tent, and then a soldier hurriedly appeared in the tent.
"Your Highness, Xi Jue's army is within fifty miles!"
"The entire army is on alert and ready to meet the enemy!" After Li Yin finished speaking, his figure left the tent.
After a while, the whole army gathered again!
Although some of them were so hungry that their legs and feet were weak, and some were seriously injured and covered with scars, they still chose to go to the battlefield again without hesitation!
The soldiers of Li Kingdom would rather die than retreat!
As long as the country is there, the family will be destroyed. Therefore, they cannot retreat!
Within half an hour, a brutal war broke out again...
Seeing that the Li Kingdom's army was already a remnant, Xi Jue became even more unscrupulous.
Arrows filled the sky, shooting towards the Li country's army.
The consequences are predictable. The Li Kingdom suffered heavy casualties, and Li Yin also suffered injuries of varying degrees. His battle suit was torn and he looked in a miserable state!
"Master..." Qu Zhihu stood in front of Li Yin, blocking the arrows. There was no intact place on his body.
"Fight to the end!" Li Yin gritted his teeth, tightly gripped the sword in his hand, and swung it to block several arrows shot from the back.
Even if he dies, he must live up to his country!
In this way, a few quarters of an hour passed, Li Yin and others were exhausted, but the war was still going on, and the enemy's attacks were getting more and more fierce!
Looking at the soldiers falling one after another, and the arrows that kept coming, Li Yin was no longer able to resist!
He thrust his sword hard into the ground to support himself, then he looked up at the dark sky, then at the corpses scattered all over the ground. He finally broke his promise...
Looking at the dense feather arrows, Li Yin closed her eyes in despair, ready to wait for death to come.
Just when the arrow was about to pierce Li Yin, a red fan suddenly appeared from the air and blocked his way.
Then it turned into a red barrier and surrounded Liyin.
Without waiting for the pain of being pierced by thousands of arrows, Li Yin slowly opened his eyes, only to see a woman in red flying towards him and landing beside him.
At this moment, Li Sheng had no time to think. He swung his hand back and forth, and a red light was thrown out, sending all the arrows back!
Xijue did not expect that something unexpected would happen at this moment of victory.
Just when they thought they had won and the smug look on their faces had not yet disappeared, they were completely unprepared for the arrows that bounced back from their bodies. In an instant, half of them were killed or injured!
Li Sheng would not give them any chance to breathe. Holding a red fan, he turned into a shadow and rushed towards them at a rapid speed!
By the time the people on Xijue's side reacted, Li Sheng had already taken off the leader's head!
Her battlefield strategy has always been to capture the leader first.
Seeing that their leader was dead, Xi Jue's army fell into chaos in an instant!
Before retreating to Li Yin's side, Li Sheng waved his red fan and sent out a red light, knocking Xi Jue's people to the ground one after another!
Then she flashed back to Li Yin and snapped her fingers. The feather arrows that had fallen on the ground floated up, changed direction, and shot towards Xi Jue!
Immediately afterwards, she took Li Yin and Qu Zhi, who had fainted, away from the battlefield!
She was just returning their things to them. As for whether those Xijue soldiers could catch them and escape, that depended on their abilities!
It’s not that she is kind and doesn’t want to kill them all, but she doesn’t have the time to do so now!
The most important thing right now is to save lives!
On the battlefield, she wouldn't be stupid enough to sympathize with the enemy!
If that were the case, she would have died thousands of times already!
After Li Sheng brought the people back to the military camp, she found that the camp was empty, with only a few logistics soldiers left.
And they were too hungry to walk!
The same goes for the military doctors!
Except for Li Yin and Qu Zhi, almost no one who went to the battlefield today survived!
When we first set out on the expedition, there were nearly 100,000 people!
It's only been a few months, and it's all turned into a pile of dust...
Thinking of this, Li Sheng felt regretful. She clearly knew that person's methods, so why couldn't she come earlier?
She should have come earlier!
Also, she shouldn't have allowed Su Yuan to drag it out for so long. At least... some lives could have been saved...
"Your Highness, please lie down and don't move!" Li Sheng collected his thoughts and quickly fed Li Yin a pill.
Then he walked to the unconscious Qu Zhi and stuffed a pill into his pocket.
Qu Zhi's injuries were much more serious than Li Yin's. If he wasn't treated, he would never be saved!
The military doctors were so hungry that she was too embarrassed to call them, so she had to do it herself.
Liyin should be able to hold on for a while longer, there shouldn't be any problem.
Although he didn't faint, he was so injured that he couldn't speak!
Except for a pair of eyes that could still move, everything else on my body was numb!
