Chapter 1368: Truce and Return to Camp

At this moment, she heard a few words of conversation and her mood immediately calmed down.

I see! No wonder the vanguards fought so calmly and without panic, it turned out to be because of this reason...

They are so nervous because they have never seen the world. But it doesn't matter, it's also a real experience.

Even if the general came, they were no match for the other side and had to fight and retreat until the people behind arrived. Only then did the two armies reach a balance of power.

Hong Yujie pursed his lips at this time, his face full of determination, and the knife in his hand was still waving.

When Ye Ziwei noticed that his arms were shaking, she called out to his two servants, "Take him to rest for a while. We'll hold him here."

The two servants were not feeling well either. They had never experienced such a long and intense fight and could hardly hold on any longer. They quickly pulled Hong Yujie and retreated behind the crowd.

After Hong Yujie stopped, he found that he could no longer lift his arms, and they fell into his hands, grasping mechanically.

Ye Ziwei continued to pay attention to the battle situation in front of her, and did not forget to look back at Hong Yujie.

At this time, a servant came running over and said to her, "Sixth Miss, the young master asked me to tell you that he is fine, just a little tired."

Ye Ziwei smiled and said, "I know. Tell him not to hold on and take a rest when he needs to."

The servant nodded, turned and ran away.

There were flashes of swords and shouts of killing on the battlefield, but Zhang Gaoyi's eyes were not only on the enemy in front of him, but he was also always paying attention to the changes in the expressions of several enemy generals.

He keenly observed that although these generals seemed extremely anxious on the surface, they did not issue more orders or signals, and the battle was being fought at a leisurely pace, as if to delay time.

This made him secretly certain in his heart that his and the general's previous guess was completely correct - the enemy must have secretly slipped away a part of its troops in an attempt to launch a surprise attack on their camp.

However, their trap had already been set, waiting for the enemy to fall into it.

Time passed minute by minute. After about an hour, Zhang Gaoyi noticed that the enemy general showed an angry and unwilling look on his face, but finally he had to give the order to retreat.

Obviously, the general was extremely reluctant, because the warriors on the grassland had not tasted victory for too long and urgently needed a victory to boost morale.

Unfortunately, they suffered another defeat this time.

When the enemy began to retreat, the Daxia army did not pursue them, but remained calm and vigilant.

The general couldn't wait to lead his troops back to the military camp quickly.

Zhang Gaoyi led the vanguard battalion to clean up the battlefield and prevent the enemy from making a counterattack, ensuring everything was safe and orderly.

After completing the task, he came to Hong Yujie, patted him on the shoulder, and his eyes were full of praise: "Well done, but you need to continue to strengthen your training!"

If Hong Yujie was recognized by others in the past, he might be very proud, but now, he knows how bad he is. The performance of the forward battalion has already conquered him.

Ye Ziwei followed Zhang Gaoyi back, followed by the caravan members. They were also very tired. Except for a few people with injured soldiers, the others were still laughing. Walking at the end were Hong Yujie and his servants, and in front of them were more than 20 prisoners.

Servant A: "Sir, what should we do next?"

Hong Yujie was confused, "What should I do?"

Servant A: "I'm asking, should we go back to the capital? There's a war on the first day we arrive. If it happens often in the future, can you bear it?" He saw how Hong Yujie couldn't hold the knife on the battlefield, and he felt sorry for his master.

Hong Yujie's expression at this time was even more determined than before. He looked at the people in the caravan in front of him and said firmly: "No, I want to stay in the vanguard camp."

When the servant heard this, he immediately became anxious and quickly advised: "Sir, this is not a place for fun, please don't act on impulse!"

Hong Yujie was unmoved, and said with a firm look: "Didn't you hear what your cousin said? They all went through this before. My cousin was more persistent than me on the battlefield. How could I retreat?"

The servant A also said anxiously: "How can you be the same as them? You are the young master of the Hong family, with a noble status, how can you endure such hardship!"

Hong Yujie shook his head and said seriously: "You don't understand, this is the real battlefield. Only after going through such hardships can you become a real warrior. I don't want to be the one who only hides in the back and enjoys the comfort anymore."

After hearing this, the servant said helplessly, "Ah? Can you really bear it? I see that the general in the vanguard camp is different from the instructor we hired. You will suffer when the time comes."

Hong Yujie didn't say anything, just glanced at them and continued walking forward.

Servant A and Servant B looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.

But they knew that once Hong Yujie made a decision, it would be difficult to change it, so they could only follow him silently.

Ye Ziwei said as she walked in front: "I have to leave early tomorrow morning. We still have to support the flow of goods between the two places."

Zhang Gaoyi nodded to show his understanding, and then earnestly said, "Okay! The situation here is unstable. If it weren't for something extremely urgent, I wouldn't let you come here. When your sister comes back, remember to ask her to send me a letter!"

Ye Ziwei responded: "I understand!"

When the two returned to the military camp, they saw many people busy at the back of the camp, and thick smoke rising in the distance.

Ye Ziwei couldn't help but ask curiously, "What happened over there? It looks like the place where your military camp stores food and grass."

However, Zhang Gaoyi seemed very calm and replied calmly: "This should be the enemy's attempt to lure the tiger away from the mountain and rob our food. However, the general and I had already expected them to have this trick, so we left enough troops in advance to deal with it."

Ye Ziwei didn't know much about military strategy, but all she needed to know was that the enemy had failed.

Then, Zhang Gaoyi said, "Okay, you should go and pack up. I'm going to the military camp to check on the situation. Let Zihong accompany you to see Zimeng. I think he's busy now!"

After saying that, he turned and left.

Ye Ziwei looked at the injured people following behind her, thinking to herself that Ye Zimeng must be very busy at the moment. It was a pity that she was not a sister and could not help, but the precious medicinal materials she brought this time had to be handed over to her cousin Zimeng.

Not long after, Ye Zihong stepped into the military camp and happened to meet Ye Ziwei who was waiting.

"Third cousin, I've been waiting for you! I have letters from Sister Meng'er and Second Aunt for you. I didn't see you when I first came. Now come with me to get them!" Ye Ziwei said with a smile.
