After Li Shao left, Jing Xiangyuan was still leaning against the head of the bed to rest. Although he felt weak all over, he had been lying down for too long, so it would be more comfortable for him to sit up.

At this time, Zhuifeng brought the meat porridge and said, "Your Majesty, drink more meat porridge while it's hot. When you were unconscious before, your subordinates only dared to feed you rice porridge. Now that you are awake, you need to nourish yourself more. However, the military doctor said that you still need to eat something that is easy to digest."

Jing Xiangyuan had no appetite at all now, "Just leave it there for now."

Looking at the haggard appearance of Zhuifeng's personal guards, he said, "I'm sorry for the trouble you've had during my coma. You must have been very worried. I'll remember your sincerity and will reward you handsomely when we return to the capital."

Several people knelt on one knee and saluted, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. Serving you is our duty, and we dare not take credit for it. We will do our best to repay your kindness."

"Okay, everyone, get up."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhuifeng added, "My Lord, when you were unconscious, we were very anxious every day, as if we had lost our backbone. Now that you are awake, everything is fine."

"The person who secretly harmed you is really hateful. Once my subordinates and others track him down, we will tear him into pieces to vent our anger."

Hearing this, Jing Xiangyuan just smiled faintly, "I'm afraid the people who assassinated me have already gone away, but they are definitely from the Chu and Liao countries."

"In the next battle, I will let them know that daring to attack my Jing Kingdom is the biggest mistake of their lives. When they are defeated, they will naturally hand over the people who assassinated me. There is no need to waste manpower to track them down now."

Zhui Feng bowed his head slightly and said respectfully, "Your Majesty is wise! I am stupid and could not think of this. You have foresight and I admire you."

"Haha! You don't have to flatter me like that. I was able to survive this time thanks to Brother Li. Although I knew he was brave and skilled in fighting, I never thought he would have the guts to challenge the enemy camp alone and kill their commander. I really admire him."

"In addition, he is also proficient in witchcraft. He is truly an extraordinary person. It is a wise move for my royal brother to appoint Brother Li as the commander-in-chief. I have a feeling that Brother Li can lead our Jing Kingdom army to advance forward and always win."

As he spoke, Jing Xiangyuan's face was filled with admiration for Li Shao, and these words came completely from his heart.

"Your Majesty, you..."

Zhuifeng was originally worried that his prince would be upset. When the battle was going well, he was suddenly ambushed and fell into a coma. When he woke up, he found that his commander-in-chief had been turned into his deputy general. Anyone would inevitably feel a little overwhelmed.

The prince is so open-minded, and his vision is indeed beyond the reach of people like them.

Jing Xiangyuan could naturally guess what he was thinking, and teased: "Why, do you think that I am so broad-minded?"

"I dare not! I definitely don't mean that!"

"Haha! Okay, get up. I was just joking. There's no need to be like this."

"All of you go down. Since the king is awake, there is no need for anyone to watch over him. Go back and have a good rest tonight."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Zhuifeng and his companions answered happily, but they still took turns guarding outside the tent.

Soon Jing Xiangyuan was the only one left in the tent. He took out a handkerchief from his arms and rubbed it gently.

The moment he woke up and learned that he almost died, the first person he thought of was Cen Ge'er. He was afraid, afraid that he would never see Cen Ge'er again, afraid that he would not cry after knowing that he died, and even more afraid that he would cry.

Perhaps only between life and death can one see one's own heart clearly and understand whether it is love or possessiveness that is at work.

……

The Liao army camp in the river valley area of ​​Nanyue Province within the territory of Jing State.

At this time, in a rather imposing camp, a middle-aged man dressed in alien clothes was sitting on a couch in a very strange posture, with his eyes closed and a distorted face.

There were all kinds of strange poisonous weeds and insects surrounding him, but these poisonous creatures were all wilted at the moment, looking like they were not far from death.

There was also a young woman in the tent who was pacing with a worried look on her face. The woman was dressed like the man and had a beautiful appearance but a fierce look in her eyes.

Just as the woman was becoming more and more panicked, the man on the couch suddenly vomited a large amount of blood, his whole body convulsed, and large patches of skin all over his body began to ulcerate, and blood kept oozing out.

Gu Dai hurriedly stepped forward to support him, shouting, "Brother Chen! Brother Chen! What happened? How could the backlash be so severe?! Which expert broke your life Gu?"

At this time, Gu Chen was breathing out more than breathing in, "Someone, someone killed me, killed my life Gu..."

Before he could finish his words, he either fainted or died. Gu Dai had no time to think about where Jingguo found this expert who could actually kill Gu Chen's natal Gu.

In order to save Gu Chen, she spat out her own natal Gu without hesitation and fed it to him.

As Gu Dai's life-definition Gu parasitized Gu Chen's body, his breathing recovered a little. Although he was still unconscious, his life was temporarily saved.

However, Gu Dai's natal Gu can only keep Gu Chen alive for half a month. If she wants to save him, she can only steal the clan's most precious treasure, the Tianhun Gu Pill.

Looking at the bloodless face of the person in her arms, Gu Dai could no longer suppress the anger in her heart, "Ahhhh! Who is it?! Who is it! No matter who you are, I will tear you into pieces! Let you experience the pain of having your heart eaten by thousands of insects!"

When the soldiers outside the tent heard the woman's shrill screams, they couldn't help but take a few steps back. They didn't dare to approach the two "masters".

The two "masters" were the honored guests of their head coach. It was said that they were powerful figures invited at a huge cost.

A few days ago, a soldier accidentally bumped into one of the women and was found dead in a corner of the barracks the next day.

The skin and flesh all over his body had become rotten, and the strangest thing was that after the autopsy, it was found that his skin was scratched into this state by himself.

Anyone could guess who this incident was related to, but the coach did not pursue the matter. Instead, he ordered no one to mention the matter again and instructed them to show special respect to the two "masters".

Gu Chen and Gu Dai were born into the Gu Clan, one of the hidden clans. The Gu Clan was similar to the Wu Clan, and everyone in the clan learned the art of witchcraft since childhood and had almost no contact with outside clans.

The tribe strictly forbids the use of living people to make poisons, but these two were born evil and liked to use living people to make poisons and test poisons. They also enjoyed killing people. After being discovered, they escaped from the tribe with their cruelty.

In addition to avoiding being hunted down by their own people, they also worked for the Liao Kingdom because the people who recruited them promised them that after the Liao army won a great victory, they would send troops to accompany them back to their ancient tribe to seek revenge.

Gu Chen and Gu Dai's first task after being recruited was to deal with Jing Xiangyuan. As the Jing army camp was heavily guarded, Gu Chen had no choice but to use his natal Gu.

If the plan went well, the insect would wake up seven days from today after absorbing enough vital energy and quietly break out of the brain. However, all this was ruined by Li Shao.

The next morning, the soldiers who came to deliver food to the two men found that the tent was empty. Both the people and their belongings were gone. They quickly reported it to the commander-in-chief Guo Jin.

Upon hearing the news, Guo Jin hurriedly sent people to look for them. Their side was already weak in the recent battles with Jing’s army, so how could the two extraordinary people they had finally found disappear!

A few days ago, the two men had promised him that once their poison was ready, it would be no problem for them to wipe out the entire Jing army.

After searching the entire military camp several times, Guo Jin finally accepted the fact that the two masters had escaped.

……

On Li Shao's side, now that Jing Xiangyuan has woken up and his body is gradually recovering, he can focus on fighting the enemy.

In the following days, Li Shao discussed the next battle plan with Jing Xiangyuan, his staff and a group of deputy generals.

On the day of the attack, as the war drums beat, the vanguard of the Jing army took the lead in charging. Holding spears in hand and taking firm steps, they rushed towards the enemy positions.

Luo Yuanwu hurriedly ordered the archers to quickly put arrows on their bows and draw their bows, and sharp arrows shot towards Jing's army like raindrops.

But Jing's army's charge did not stop. They continued to surge forward like a surging tide.

Soon the two sides came into close combat, with shouts, screams, and the sound of weapons clashing intertwined.

The soldiers of Jing Army were all extremely brave. They stabbed left and right and fought hard. On the battlefield, blood splattered and dyed the ground red.

The generals led by Li Shao were extremely brave. They wielded their swords and chopped people like chopping vegetables.

……

As the battle continued, the Chu-Liao coalition forces gradually fell into a disadvantage, and the Jing army became more and more courageous, forcing them to retreat step by step.

After several days of fighting, all the lost territories in Yangxi area were recovered except for Xizhou City.

The Chu-Liao coalition forces retreated to Xizhou City.
