Ji Shuisheng was very anxious. Although he knew Su Qing was skilled and might not be in danger, he was still nervous. In this chaotic world, it might be your entire life once you are separated.
Where did Su Qing, Xiaoying, and Jiang Yuyan go?
The three of them waited for Ji Shuisheng and Zhong Yong to return. When they heard the intense fighting outside the city gate, Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying were worried about Ji Shuisheng, and Jiang Yuyan was worried about Zhong Yong. The three of them could not stay in this courtyard any longer.
“Sister Su Qing, let’s go and see what’s going on.”
Jiang Yuyan and Xiaoying asked for instructions. After learning martial arts from Su Qing for so long, she and Xiaoying could fight with their enemies for a while. They were no longer weak women who needed protection.
“Alright.”
Su Qing agreed. They would only take a look, not participate in the battle. There was no difference between hiding in the courtyard and the alley.
On the contrary, they were more flexible in the alley. They could retreat whenever they saw the enemy coming, unlike sitting in the house and waiting for death.
Before she left, she unloaded the carriage and led the horses into the house. She tied the horses and pulled the carriage to the back of the house. From the outside, it looked like an abandoned courtyard.
After doing all this, the three girls left the small courtyard. They dared not take the main street and walk through the alleys to the city gate. When they arrived at the city gate, Ji Shuisheng and Zhong Yong had already left to look for them.
Seeing that the Great Xia Kingdom’s army had wiped out the Tartan soldiers, the soldiers of the Great Xia Kingdom began to search through the corpses of the Tartan soldiers one by one. When they found money, they would put it into their pockets and search through the next corpse.
Some soldiers especially stripped off the Tartan soldiers’ cotton coats and boots. They even stripped off the animal skins worn by the Tartanians. If it weren’t for the fact that they disliked the smell of their underwear, they would have also stripped off their underwear.
Ji Xiaoying found him familiar and whispered to Su Qing,
“Sister, is the Great Xia Kingdom’s army that poor? Why is he even more ruthless than us?”
Su Qing looked at the tattered military uniforms of the soldiers and nodded.
“The Great Xia Kingdom’s army isn’t poor, but they are. They must have deducted their pay. Look at them; they are all wearing unlined clothes. It’s almost the freezing season. Without cotton clothes, they will freeze to death.”
” The dog emperor is stupid and incompetent, causing the deaths of the people. Is he worthy of these soldiers risking their lives to protect their country?”
Xiaoying was so angry that her face turned red. She angrily scolded the imperial court and the emperor.
She wasn’t enslaved, so she didn’t have to worry about her words, regardless of who he was.
Most of the people of the Great Xia Kingdom had been enslaved by the feudal system. They were blindly loyal and respectful, treating the emperor’s words as golden. The emperor would live and die as he wished.
“They are protecting the common people.”
Su Qing admired these poor but strong-boned soldiers. They were willing to risk their lives to defend the city even when the imperial court did not give them food or pay. They must have been thinking about the people.
“I don’t see Big Brother Ji and Big Brother Zhong.”
Jiang Yuyan stood on tiptoe and craned her neck to look at the soldiers. With Zhong Yong’s height, he stood out from the crowd no matter where he was. He could be seen at a glance from far away. n0veLusb.c0m
Jiang Yuyan was afraid he had already encountered danger, so she looked around the corpses on the ground but could not find Ji Shuisheng and Zhong Yong. Even if any Tartan soldiers were alive, they were killed. Some soldiers specialized in searching for corpses to kill.
Many injured soldiers were on the Great Xia Kingdom’s side, and they were all helped to the side to rest. Cheng Yu’s army lacked doctors and medicine and could only bandage the soldiers’ wounds.
“I’ll go and give them some medicine.”
Su Qing saw that there were seriously injured people in a critical situation. If she didn’t save them, they could only wait for death.
Su Qing’s rescue was killing two birds with one stone. Her medical skills and merits had stagnated. These were all loyal people who protected the country. Treating them would improve her medical skills.
“We’ll go with you.”
Ji Xiaoying was a kind-hearted girl. Seeing those soldiers suffer, she could not help but want to help.
Although she and Jiang Yuyan couldn’t treat these soldiers, they could help bandage their wounds.
The three girls appeared before Cheng Yu, and the soldiers pointed their guns at them.
“Who are you?”
“General, I’m a doctor. 1 saw the soldiers heavily injured in a bloody battle, so 1 wanted to do something.”
Su Qing cupped her fists at Cheng Yu. She was disguised as a man, so she used a man’s voice.
“You guys look unfamiliar.”
Cheng Yu didn’t believe them easily and asked cautiously. If they were spies from the Tartan Kingdom, the consequences of handing over the injured soldiers to him would be unimaginable. After all, spies from the Tartan Kingdom often came to this city.
Cheng Yu sized up the three young men in front of him. They were not tall and were very thin. They had delicate features. The Tartans had deep facial features and did not have such delicate features. From their appearance, they were not Tartans.
The three of them did not look like men, but more like girls disguised as men. Cheng Yu’s eyes were sharp, and he could tell at a glance that they were disguised as men.
” We’re just passing by. We came to the city to buy supplies for the road, but we were blocked by the Tartan soldiers in Mo City. When we saw the generals fighting on the battlefield, I just happened to know medicine, so 1 came over to help.”
Su Qing explained patiently. She admired that this old general was still fighting for the country at such an old age. Otherwise, with her temper, she would not have talked nonsense with him. She would have turned around and left long ago.
“Alright, thank you.”
Cheng Yu looked into Su Qing’s clear eyes. Her gaze was open and without a trace of sinister scheming, but it was as cold as ice, giving people a feeling of arrogance and coldness.
Such people were all competent. At least, all the people he had met were like this. The girl before him was young, but she was not someone he could underestimate.
Su Qing saw that Cheng Yu had given his permission and immediately rolled up her sleeves to save the wounded.
Su Qing specially selected the severely injured who were in critical condition to treat, while Xiao Ying and Jiang Yuyan took the red medicine to bandage the lightly wounded soldiers. The three of them each performed their duties, and their movements were very skilled.
The pale wounded felt a cooling sensation on their wounds after the medicine was applied, which relieved the piercing pain.
It was not as simple as applying medicine and bandaging for a seriously injured person. If the wound were deep, the wound would have to be stitched up.
Su Qing first fed the heavily injured people a hemostatic pill to ensure they would not die from excessive blood loss. Then, she went to look for Cheng Yu and pointed at the heavily injured people.
“They need surgery. The environment here is not suitable for surgery. 1 need a clean place to suture their wounds.”
Cheng Yu had been observing them for a long time and realized these girls were skilled in bandaging. The medicine they applied to the lightly injured was very effective. They should be doctors.
Therefore, he accepted Su Qing’s suggestion. He couldn’t just watch as his brother was saved, right?
“Why don’t we go to our military camp? It’s spacious there.”
“Is it far?”
Su Qing asked Cheng Yu. These soldiers were in severe condition. Moving them back and forth too far away would worsen their injuries.. How would she get the surgical tools out if she didn’t return?
