A poor peasant girl: Farming with a baby and abusing her husband

"There is only one way now. A big fish has already fallen into the trap. There is basically no need to worry about General Xu, because we already have a hostage in hand."

As soon as Yan Shu finished speaking, Chu Xiao clapped her thighs as if waking up from a dream.

"Sister Yan Shu is very resourceful. It takes no effort to get through the iron shoes and find no place. Princess Masu came at the right time. With her, we still worry about not being able to hold Buji hostage."

Although both Yan Shu and Chu Xiao thought it was feasible, Liu Zhuo on the side did not say a word.

Yan Shu saw Liu Zhuo's concerns.

"I know it's a bit unethical to do this. After all, Masu is very affectionate and righteous to you. Treating her like this makes you feel that you are using your feelings to hurt her. But we will only do it as a last resort."

"I understand, but this makes me even more ashamed of Masu. How is she now?"

Liu Zhuo looked at Chu Xiao and asked.

"Oh, she's fine. Sister Yan Shu gave her medicine and she's much better. The fever has gone away. She should be fully recovered in two days."

Chu Xiao replied.

"Then let's leave it like this for now. I hope to let her recover in the past two days and then use some tactful methods. It would be too unethical if we directly forced her to be a hostage."

Yan Shu also felt that what Liu Zhuo said made sense. After all, Masu had saved him before, so it was indeed too cruel to treat her like this.

Chu Xiao: "Okay, I take care of her because of you. Her princess temper is not something ordinary people can tolerate. I wish she would go back to Tarra as soon as possible. You have to make up for me well when you return to Hanzhong, brother."

Chu Xiao said half-jokingly.

"Okay, I know you like to bargain the most. Just tell me what you want, and I will try my best to satisfy you."

Chu Xiao just smiled evilly and said, "We'll talk about it later." Let Liu Zhuo owe it first.

He said he had to deal with military affairs first, but he couldn't delay General Wei's plan.

"Do you think General Xu will be in danger?"

Yan Shu looked at Liu Zhuo.

"It's hard to say. Maybe General Xu will sacrifice himself for the overall situation. But I don't want that to happen."

In the face of the real war, the two of them felt somewhat melancholy.

Outside the Tartar walls.

The Han army and the Tartars had been fighting for two days and two nights.

Although General Xu was captured by Tarra, the Hanzhong army also captured many Tarra leaders. Although there is no ceasefire between the two sides now, neither side has any thoughts of executing the captured leader.

Chu Xiao also allocated 20,000 elite troops and sufficient food and grass to Wei Chang in front.

He believed that this war would not last long and Tartar would be defeated.

When he took care of military affairs and returned to Masu Courtyard. The guard guarding the courtyard gate hurried over to report to him.

"The woman in the house has wanted to go out several times, but we didn't dare to let her out according to your instructions."

Chu Xiao: "Yeah, well done, I'm worthy of my interest in you. This is a very important hostage, you must not let her escape, understand. Then we will reward you based on your merits. Okay. Now I Go take a look, you go down first."

The guards all walked away knowingly.

As soon as he entered the door, Chu Xiao saw Ma Su lying on her side, looking bulging with anger.

"Princess, are you feeling better?"

Masu: "You asked so many guards to guard the door, how can I be okay?"

Of course Chu Xiao knew that she wanted to go out and find out about Liu Zhuo.

"This is our Han army camp. If you go out, you will probably be treated as a spy and killed. If you have any wrongdoings, I can't explain it to my elder brother."

Masu became interested when he heard him mention Liu Zhuo. He immediately sat up from the bed.

"You don't have to lie to me. Is he still alive? Where is he? Why don't you dare to come to see me."

After Ma Su finished speaking, she asked Chu Xiao to help her with a pitiful look.

Chu Xiao: "Now I want to tell you something. Our army came from the front to report that the Han army and your Tatar are already fighting, and the fighting is very fierce now. Now you are in our military camp again. To be honest, I can definitely do it now I captured you as a hostage, but I remembered that you once saved my elder brother. You can’t repay kindness with enmity, so I won’t do it unless I have to.”

Masu couldn't help but become nervous when he heard this.

"What, they started fighting already? What's going on now? Is my brother okay?"

Masu is still very concerned about the safety of his tribe.

Chu Xiao said mockingly: "If you care so much about Taala, you shouldn't run out. You should put national affairs first."

Masu ignored him.

He just said to himself: "I just want to confirm a result. If he is still alive, I will feel at ease. I know that there will be no results in our lives. As for the hatred between our families in Tarra and Hanzhong, then It can only be solved by force. If we win, we will naturally open up new territories. If we lose, retreating to Mobei will be the last resort."

Chu Xiao didn't want to tell her too much. After all, this was a very heavy burden for a woman who had just recovered from a serious illness. Let's wait until she recovers.

Chu Xiao: "Okay, if the time is right, you will naturally know everything. What I want to tell you is that you should love yourself well. You are a strong girl. My eldest brother has a soul in heaven and hopes that you can survive. Live your life well."

For the first time, Masu heard the man in front of him speak human words. Replied:

"I can't see that you still have such a kind side, you have changed your gender."

Chu Xiaogang still wanted to pity this woman, but when he heard her say this, he felt that this woman was really asking for trouble with her tough words.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother you. I'm still involved in military affairs. To avoid unnecessary complications, you'd better stay out of this house. I will find a way to send you back when the war becomes clear. It can also be regarded as a comfort to my elder brother's soul in heaven."

As soon as Masu heard that she was going to be kept here, she immediately began to think of ways to find out the truth as soon as possible.

She didn't want them to use her as a hostage here to threaten her eldest brother.

What Chu Xiao never expected was that Buji actually gave them a cruel move.

When he learned that the Hanzhong army's grain and grass warehouse in Tabur had been burned by Tartar, he was so angry that he cursed his mother.

It turns out that Tarra also suffered a lot in the two days of fighting with the Hanzhong army.

The insidious Buji specially ordered a group of elite soldiers to sneak back to Tabur. Taking advantage of the darkness, they set fire to the grain and grass warehouse of the Hanzhong Army.

When someone in the army discovered it, most of the food and grass had been burned.

Without a continuous supply of food and grass, Wei Chang, who was at the front, could only grit his teeth and hold on for a few days, even if he was extremely capable.

Chu Xiao thought that he was doomed this time. As a general guarding the rear, he failed to take good care of the grain and grass warehouse, thus affecting the war at the front. If there is no room for maneuver, tens of thousands of Hanzhong troops will be controlled by Tarra.

Masu, who had almost recovered, could vaguely hear the guards outside the door talking about the war situation in the house, and then realized the reason why Chu Xiao had not appeared in the past two days.

Although she is from Tartar, after getting along with Chu Xiao for a period of time, she feels that although he is a bit annoying sometimes, he still saves her from fire and water at critical moments.

So she was still a little touched in her heart and didn't think he was a bad person. I was very conflicted inside.
