Chapter 1859 Pressure
Chapter 1859 Pressure
“I… I’m sorry!” Ye Jian bowed down quickly. “I didn’t know that they would target the supplies and didn’t arrange for more people. I…”
“Forget it.” Yu Jin sighed deeply. It was also her mistake for not noticing that they were walking to the enemy’s trap and failed to notice their presences. As the general and also the leader, Yu Jin knew that the highest responsibility lies on her.
Since that was the case, she would also admit that she was wrong. “Next, we’re going to the village and get their resources.” Yu Jin pointed at the position on the map. Her original plan was to divert away from these villages and cities to avoid unnecessary battles.
But now that they required more resources, she would target the relatively easy to target cities and got the necessary resources to continue the battle before going to Nan Hua. *sigh*
“Yes!”
Ye Jian stood at the back and Wu Shan passed a glance at her. Wu Shan, the second in command of the Mountain Tribe and also Yu Jin’s sworn brother, has been the one leading the battle most of the time. Naturally, the task of the resources and so one were all handed over to Ye Jian. “Are you alright?” Wu Shan asked in a low voice. “Ah? I’m fine, Wu Shan,” Ye Jian said with a smile. She lowered her head. “I’m a bit careless and I…”
“You’ve been doing a good job all these times and I’m sure that you will continue to do so,” Wu Shan said.
Ye Jian blinked her eyes and didn’t say anything else. She only lowered her head and looked at the map on the table that Yu Jin had spread and currently busy arranging for the commanders for their placement and battle plan. She didn’t understand any of these.
In terms of leading the battle and combat abilities, Yu Jin has always been the best in the Mountain Tribe. No one could compare to her. Not even those highly respected and intelligent elders who had been in control of the Mountain Tribe before. They felt that Yu Jin would do well and thus handed over the entire Mountain Tribe to the young teenage girl. She had become the famous Mountain Tribe Queen no one could match.
Conquering the other tribes and unifying the entire Mountain Tribe under her command. Afterwards, she collaborated with Fei Yang Kingdom and ventured to various areas, seeing the bigger and brighter world outside. The people she lead all followed her loyally. No one would do anything to disappoint her. Wu Shan looked at Ye Jian for a few more seconds before turning his attention back to the map. He was also thinking about what he could do to help in the war. After all, he was usually quite stupid and in this situation, it would not help much with the war and so on. So he wanted to find something that he could actually do. “Wu Shan, you’ll be helping me for a pincer attack and also to cover my back,” Yu Jin said.
“I know. You can leave it to me, Older Sister,” Wu Shan replied with a smile.
“I know I can rely on you.” Yu Jin grinned. Ye Jian stayed at the back, as inconspicuous as ever. Some of the soldiers tried to console her because they knew that there might be punishment for her later to be so careless. But for now, the most important thing was for them to get more resources to continue the war.
Without any food, they would not have enough energy to continue the battle. And if they ran out of food in this foreign land, in the wilderness where it was far away from their place, they might end up dying.
Everyone knew the stakes.
So they were exceptionally serious.
War has always been the time when they put their lives on the line and fight the enemies. But dying because they lacked food was another thing altogether that they didn’t wish to happen at all. Because it felt really stupid to die because of starvation in war. Everyone continued the discussion until some time when they were finally done and went back to rest.
The next war wouldn’t be easy at all.
“Yu Jin.”
Hearing the familiar call, Yu Jin’s eyes lit up and turned to the side. She saw Shan Yu was wiping his hands with the cloth. From the blood on the cloth, she could guess that there were many injured member of the Mountain Tribe who had been treated by Shan Yu today. “Are you done?” Yu Jin asked with a bright smile. Shan Yu chose to follow her in the end, or it was more like she pulled him to come with her and let Traveling Doctor Liu stayed with Yu Zheng Xi. Of considering that some time had passed, Traveling Doctor Liu might have already entered Fan Yi Kingdom’s territory and stayed with the first senior.
To be honest, Shan Yu was not used to the life of not seeing his Master and busy taking care of his Master. But being able to stay with Yu Jin, he seemed to understand why his Master kept on urging him to find someone to settle down and no longer followed Master anymore. Some people were fated to stay alone.
But some others were fated to meet with someone who could move their heart. “I’m done.” Shan Yu smiled back. “How is it? I saw the fire from the back and it looked bad.”
Since Shan Yu decided to follow Yu Jin, he knew the situation in this place more or less from Yu Jin’s story. She would not tell everything to him, but she let him knew the overall situation so that he would not worry.
After all, by following her here, he was basically risking his life. Even if doctors would not be targeted by others, but he was technically the doctor of Yu Jin’s army. In other words, he was part of the army by now.
