Chapter 131: Western Coastal Attack
The next morning, everyone got ready to set off.
They even moved out of their camp and set up camp on a flat area thirty miles away from the foot of the Tuofeng Ridge.
Only the current Prince Jing has the courage to act with such fanfare and confidence.
But Yu Jiuer didn't know why her right eye kept twitching.
If her left eye twitches, it means good luck, and if her right eye twitches, it means bad luck. At this critical moment in the battle, she couldn't help but think more.
When a group of people went to the back mountain of Tuofeng Ridge and pretended to climb the mountain to attract the enemy's attention.
Jun Mo planned to lead the Yulin Army to sneak to the front of Tuofeng Ridge to wait for the enemy to attack from behind.
Before he set off, Yu Jiuer stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, take the people from Xiguan Camp with you! It's a waste to keep them here!"
"What? Are you worried about me?" Jun Mo's face was full of teasing. In front of all the generals, he leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.
The surrounding soldiers started to laugh and jeer: "One more! One more!"
Yu Jiuer blushed with shame and shouted angrily: "The situation is urgent, why are you still making a fuss?"
This group of people trusted Jun Mo and her so much that when Jun Mo announced in public that she was Yu Jiuer, none of the soldiers doubted it, and no one questioned why Yu Jiuer came back to life.
They only blindly believed in their commander-in-chief, and firmly believed that the prince and Magistrate Yu were in love, and that they would have a good life only if they joined forces to fight the enemy!
Yu Jiuer turned around and threatened Jun Mo directly: "If you don't take the people from Xiguan Camp with you, I will go with you!"
Jun Mo said conceitedly: "If my 10,000 Yulin troops are still unable to wipe out a mere 10,000 Gray troops, then wouldn't it be a waste of time for the Yulin troops to fight for so many years? But since it is the princess's request, then I will take them!"
Yu Jiuer was uneasy and didn't want to pay attention to his crazy talk. As long as he was willing to bring more people with him, it would be fine.
When the people in Xiguan Camp learned that they could also follow to kill the enemy, their faces were filled with excitement.
Cheng Ming also gave Yu Jiuer a grateful look.
Yu Jiuer turned around and stared at Jian San, then walked towards him with a heavy heart.
This made Jian San feel a little uneasy, and he took two steps back unconsciously.
Ever since he knew she was a woman, he no longer dared to treat her as a brother as before.
But Yu Jiuer didn't think so. In her heart, she always regarded the four guards as her friends, especially the clever Jian San.
She would often give a little hint and Jian San would be able to draw inferences about the situation, so she would always think of him first when something happened.
This time, she ignored the arrogant Jun Mo and attacked Jian San directly.
Yu Jiuer walked up to Jian San like a good brother and casually put her hand on his shoulder.
Jian San was struck by lightning, his legs were so weak that he almost fell to his knees: "Ancestor, didn't you see the murderous look in the prince's eyes? You don't want the hand, I still want the head!"
"San'er, let's discuss something!" Yu Jiuer had no burden at all and whispered quietly into Jian San's ear.
After a burst of chatter, Jian San, who was originally weak-kneed, became respectful and his expression became meticulous and responsible.
Finally, he stood straight at attention and assured Yu Jiuer: "Yes! I will definitely complete what you have entrusted to me!"
Then he stretched his body and took a few steps back, finally getting rid of Yu Jiuer's bewitching hand on his shoulder.
Yu Jiuer looked at him in confusion. When they were fighting on the coast of the Western Regions before, she and Jian San were often close friends. Why didn't she see him being so repulsive?
It turns out that turning back into a woman is troublesome. Even hooking my arm around a buddy's shoulder or back is as serious as cheating on him.
Go! She doesn't belong to anyone, why would she cheat?
Yu Jiuer cast a very complicated glance at Jun Mo, whose face was ashen, and turned back to the tent.
After the team left, there were only more than a hundred logistics personnel and guards left in their camp. For this camp, they were the people with the weakest martial arts and were only fit to stay behind.
Even the military advisor Mr. Rong couldn't stand the loneliness and joined in the fun.
Yu Jiuer paced back and forth in the tent, unable to figure out what was causing the uneasiness deep in her heart.
According to the current situation, the Yulin Army plus the Xiguan Camp soldiers have nearly 20,000 people, which should be more than enough to deal with the more than 10,000 Gray Army on the mountain!
What’s more, the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark, so we have a clear advantage. There is no reason why we can’t win!
But since she came to the ancient times, based on her previous experiences, her sixth sense has always been effective. Usually when she feels this uneasy, something is bound to happen.
She hurried to the armory and asked the guard there: "How much explosives are left in the camp?"
"Your Excellency, we have most of the explosives. The prince said there is no need to waste explosives on fleas, so we didn't bring any!"
Yu Jiuer's temples were throbbing. Generally speaking, being overconfident is definitely not a good thing!
"Call everyone here. I have a bad feeling and I need your cooperation in precaution!" The uneasiness in her heart spread. Yu Jiuer had to be more cautious, fearing that people along the coast of the Western Region would be alarmed and come to help.
After the remaining people in the camp arrived, Yu Jiuer instructed them: "Take out all the explosives, bury them one by one around our camp with burning wires. If the prince returns safely, we will take them back. Otherwise... In short, follow my orders!"
"Yes!" Everyone already had deep-rooted admiration and trust for Yu Jiuer. Even though they didn't know why she did this, no one raised any objections and they just followed her orders.
After thinking for a while, Yu Jiuer ordered again: "I want to find two smart people to go to the front to spy on the military situation! Who is willing to go?"
"Sir, let's go!" The two cooks in the camp who were in charge of chopping wood stepped forward. No one wanted to be left behind if they could make a contribution.
Yu Jiuer nodded. The two of them had been living in the mountains and forests for many years and were nimble on foot. It should be no problem for them to hide in the dark and gather some military intelligence.
Then, she made other arrangements in the camp, and after making sure everything was safe, her uneasy heart finally calmed down a little.
I waited anxiously until the evening, when the two cooks who had gone out to spy on the military intelligence came running back: "Report - Sir, something bad has happened!"
"Hurry up and tell me!" Something really happened, and Yu Jiuer's heart was in her throat.
A cook panted and said hurriedly, "As soon as the Gray Army came down, they were surrounded by our army. Just when they were about to win, a large number of Western Region troops suddenly came from nowhere and are now fighting fiercely with the prince and his men!"
"I made a rough calculation and it's probably as many as 50,000 or 60,000! The prince is in danger this time!" Another cook was so scared that his face turned pale and he was shaking all over.
"No wonder I felt the ground shaking an hour ago. It turns out that the soldiers from the coastal areas of the Western Regions have really arrived! Fortunately, we have made preparations in advance. This time, let's give the people from the Western Regions a surprise!" Yu Jiuer made a prompt decision and ordered everyone to take action.
"Quick! Prepare the horses! I'm going to lure the Western Region Army here! You guys quickly get out of the way! According to the previous arrangement, once the Western Region Army enters our camp, we'll ignite the explosives!"
"Sir, it's dangerous! Let's go!" Someone grabbed the reins before her.
Ever since the prince announced Yu Jiuer's identity, she has been Lord Yu in their camp, and her status is as noble as the prince's. If anything happens to her, the prince will definitely not forgive them.
Yu Jiuer grabbed the horse rope and said, "Do you know how to lure the Western Region soldiers here? Without a reason, will they follow you to die?"
Then, Yu Jiuer let her hair down, casually tied up a woman's bun, gathered the special uniform she had put on in advance, climbed onto the horse, and said with a stern look, "Let Princess Jing lead them over!"
If they can't capture Prince Jing, they will definitely be interested in Prince Jing's wife!
Riding his horse to the chaotic battlefield, the resolute Jun Mo almost stopped breathing the moment he saw her appear: "What are you doing here?"
Before he finished speaking, an arrow flew towards Yu Jiuer.
Fortunately, Yu Jiuer was agile and she leaned down on her horse and managed to escape the disaster.
She stretched her neck and shouted loudly: "Princess Jing, what's the point of hiding behind the soldiers? I will also help the prince kill the enemy!"
This shout indeed successfully attracted the attention of many Western Region soldiers who could understand the Dadong Dynasty language.
I only heard a Western Region general ask the people around him in the Western Region language: "When did Prince Jing get married?"
Yu Jiuer used the Western language to dispel their doubts: "I am Yu Jiuer from Yinshan County, who was married to Prince Jing by the Emperor of the Great Dong Dynasty. I have always been protected by Prince Jing. Now, I am here to accompany my husband to fight the enemy! Prepare to die!"
Yu Jiuer said this and raised her Thunderbolt Gun, firing Thunderbolt bullets at the Western Region soldiers in front of her.
Many Western Region soldiers were immediately excited when they heard that it was the real Princess Jing!
Ever since Prince Jing was demoted to Yinshan, they have already investigated all the information about Prince Jing. How could they not know about Yu Jiuer's existence?
Yu Jiuer, who was supposed to be dead, suddenly resurrected. It turned out that Prince Jing had hidden her.
Since Prince Jing values Princess Jing so much, if we can capture her, there's no need to worry that Prince Jing won't surrender.
"Damn it!" Jun Mo realized from a distance that Yu Jiuer must have made some arrangements without telling him, and he couldn't help but worry.
Swords and knives are ruthless on the battlefield, and the way she risked her life really frightened him!
The enemy took advantage of this distraction and stabbed Jun Mo with a sword, but Jun Mo jumped away nimbly.
When he raised his eyes again, he saw a sword flying towards Yu Jiuer.
In a flash, Jun Mo flew over to block it without hesitation.
"Puff——" Yu Jiuer only saw the flying sword piercing into his shoulder and blood spurting out.
Her pupils shrank slightly, and her heart was suddenly hit by something. She was caught off guard and the pain was unbearable.
