Quick Wear: Male supporting role, come to my arms quickly

Chapter 478: After a Woman Disguised as a Man is Exposed 9

After several days of tactical deployment and personnel reorganization, the siege army led by General Wei set out overnight, intending to take advantage of the enemy's slackness at night to break through the city gate in one fell swoop.

In the previous life, perhaps because of the lack of Chu Yuan's cooperation, Lieutenant General Deng's mission to steal the defense map was not successful, and the siege was delayed a lot compared to now, which led to the incident of Xu Shanshan betraying the whereabouts of the original owner.

In this life, the siege has already begun, and Xu Shanshan is still suffering from exile in some corner.

At this time, Chu Yuan, as General Wei's accompanying guard, of course followed him and sat in the army to command the battle.

News just came from the front that the vanguard troops led by Lieutenant General Hu are less than ten miles away from Weicheng City, and someone has been specially sent to ask for instructions on the next course of action.

At General Wei's command, the siege was about to begin.

At that moment, the shocking scene was deeply imprinted in Chu Yuan's mind.

My ears were filled with loud shouts, the crisp buzzing sound of weapons colliding, and the dull sound of sharp blades cutting through flesh and blood.

Looking around, countless swords and arrows were flying in the sky, majestic war horses were galloping wantonly, soldiers were charging back and forth on the battlefield, frantically reaping the lives of their opponents, and the cruel scene was shocking.

Chu Yuan had no time to care about anything else. She tightly grasped the big knife in her hand and kept swinging it like a machine.

He used all his strength to strike with each blow, trying to carve out a way for himself, while also protecting the generals and fellow soldiers beside him from flying arrows and fierce attacks from the enemy.

Fortunately, the battle did not last long, and the vanguard led by Lieutenant General Hu had already broken through the city gate.

Afterwards, the main force led by Lieutenant General Deng and other generals marched straight in and, according to the markings on the defense map, eliminated the enemy's hidden stakes and troop stations in the city one by one.

After everything was settled, Chu Yuan wiped the blood that was splattered on his face and followed the general's horse into the city.

The people in the city were like frightened birds, guarding their own doors tightly, and refused to come out no matter how the soldiers outside shouted.

Their fear and sorrow are understandable. When two countries go to war, the innocent victims are always the people who just want a stable life.

However, General Wei was a man of benevolence and justice. He would not allow the troops he led or the cavalry under his command to trample on the blood of ordinary people.

Because for General Wei, the purpose of war is not to create more killing and destruction, but to protect the tranquility and peace of the country.

If it weren't for the fact that Weicheng City was snatched from Yin Dynasty by the enemy country more than ten years ago, and the enemy troops on the border had not frequently harassed the people of Yin Dynasty, General Wei would not have led his troops to launch such a large-scale battle here.

This is why, although Chu Yuan criticized his character a lot, he never questioned his ability and vision as a general.

The peace and stability that Yin Dynasty enjoys today is all thanks to the sweat and blood shed by General Wei in the battlefields over the years.

Although the overall situation has been decided at this time, there are always some people who refuse to give up and try to change the entire battle situation by their own strength. For example, now, there is a cold arrow shot from an unknown direction, heading straight for General Wei's heart.

"General, be careful!" The first person to discover the danger was of course Chu Yuan, who was always paying attention to his surroundings.

She took action immediately, throwing the big knife in her hand to deflect the direction of the arrow by a few inches. In addition, her timely reminder prompted General Wei to react quickly.

Finally, the hidden arrow just grazed General Wei's left arm, took off a piece of his robe, and fell to the ground with a thud.

"General, are you okay?"

A minor scratch was nothing. What Chu Yuan was worried about was that the arrowhead was poisoned. Now was the critical time to recapture the city and appease the people. As the commander of the entire army, General Wei must not fall down.

"It's okay." General Wei raised his left arm and checked it carefully. It was just a scratch on his robe, but no injury to the skin.

As he was speaking, the man who shot the hidden arrow had been captured by the general's personal guards. Judging from his attire, he was just an ordinary cloth shop clerk. However, judging by his skills and accuracy in archery, he was more than just a clerk.

"Take him away and interrogate him carefully."

"Yes."

Chu Yuan didn't care about this person's origin. He was probably a spy planted by the enemy among the people, or a patriot with great abilities.

Anyway, anyone who dares to attack General Wei will most likely end up dead.

At this moment, she was more concerned about her own life and the general's life. If there was one such person, there would be a second one, and if there was a second one, there would be a third one, so she had to stay vigilant at all times.

It’s a pity that she hasn’t had a full night’s sleep for several nights. Judging from the situation, she won’t be able to get a good rest for a long time in the future.

Chu Yuan was so busy lamenting her miserable situation and paying attention to the slightest movement around her that she didn't notice that the moment her arrow missed the target, the look in General Wei's eyes had changed.

In General Wei's heart, a woman with some abilities and a woman who saved his life were completely of different importance.

If before this, his attitude towards Chu Yuan was still somewhat contemptuous, now, all this contempt has turned into respect.

Perhaps such a heroic, talented and virtuous person should not be trapped in that small backyard, with the pearl covered in dust and the young eagle with broken wings.

......

Following the leader, the group stopped at the gate of the Duwei Mansion.

Only a few short days had passed, and the scene here was completely different from when Chu Yuan came last. The servants in the mansion were scattered everywhere, and outside the door there was not only property that had not been picked up in time, but also dust raised by the cavalry.

At this time, a soldier hurried over, bowed and saluted, saying: "General, this mansion has been completely emptied according to your instructions. Everything is ready. Welcome to move into the Duwei Mansion!"

The general nodded slightly and strode into the mansion: "Pass on my order. From today on, the taxes of the people in the city will be reduced or exempted for three months, and the granaries will be opened to release grain to help the poor." The soldiers took the order and left.

Afterwards, the general walked into the meeting hall and said to the local non-commissioned officers who were escorted here: "Weicheng City now belongs to Yin Dynasty. As long as you are loyal and serve, His Majesty will not treat you unfairly."

The non-commissioned officers all expressed their willingness to follow, for the simple reason that they had to bow their heads under someone else's roof, and they understood that their lives were important.

Then, the general began to arrange soldiers to guard the city gates and important roads in the city to prevent rioters from causing trouble.

After finishing these tasks, it was already late at night.

Chu Yuan, who had been standing diligently behind the general as a guard, had already been yawning.

This overwhelming sleepiness infected everyone around, and all of a sudden, everyone in the room except the general began to yawn one after another.
