After rebirth and marriage, the sick prince is fine again

The sneak attack by the Black Cavalry from the Northwest made the atmosphere in the camp tense, as if it had frozen. Many soldiers gathered together, staring at the map without daring to make a sound.

Gu Yanan, Liu Dashan, and Liu Chenrui were among them.

However, Gu Yanan and Liu Dashan both had serious expressions, while Liu Chenrui looked indifferent. It was not like they had not encountered enemy attacks before.

The enemy's city is poorly defended, and according to intelligence, there is a shortage of food and grass in the northwest. It is not easy to feed this imperial army.

It's just a trick to hit the tiger with a warning shot. What's so scary about it? It makes everyone see enemies everywhere.

"The two areas in the northeast and northwest must be strictly guarded. They are closest to the granary and water source. If the enemy succeeds, the consequences will be disastrous."

Commander Cao Yunfei said solemnly, his sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through everyone's hearts when he looked at them.

"There is also this place, which is the source of water for the army. We must keep an eye on it and not let the enemy get it."

If the water source was poisoned, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the entire camp would be doomed.

"Gu Yan'an."

Cao Yunfei shouted loudly, and everyone's eyes turned to Gu Yanan, who was standing at the back with his arms folded. There was prying and inquiry in their eyes, as if they wanted to see great panic in his eyes.

"The end will be here."

Gu Yan'an walked over neither humbly nor arrogantly, stood straight like a pine tree, and stared at the commander with eyes as firm as a rock.

"This time, the enemy attacked. If it weren't for your loud shout, the soldiers might not have been able to react."

"This is your contribution. You will be in charge of patrolling the water source."

This is not an easy task. If the water source is really poisoned, Gu Yanan will not be able to escape the responsibility, and he will not be killed.

But don't ever think about joining the army in this life.

Cao Feiyun looked at Gu Yanan with a sharp gaze, almost seeing through a hole in him.

"I obey your command." Gu Yan'an bowed and clasped his fists. Liu Dashan followed him silently.

However, there was always a pair of eyes looking towards them vaguely.

Liu Dashan turned his head slightly and saw Liu Chenrui's eyes, which were always sweeping over them vaguely.

The meeting in the military tent was still going on, but the atmosphere was exceptionally silent. After assigning each unit to patrol and inspect, Cao Feiyun disbanded the team.

"Liu Dashan, you must take good care of him. If you are not careful, both of you will lose your heads."

Liu Chenrui's voice came faintly from the side.

"Don't worry about it, Lieutenant General Liu."

Liu Chenrui sneered, glanced at the other deputy general who was following him, raised his eyebrows, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes.

"Gu is bold and careful. He will not give the enemy any chance to take advantage. But Lieutenant Liu is guarding the entrance to the camp. That is the most important thing." Liu Dashan said this deliberately.

He imitated Liu Chenrui and gently lifted his eyelids.

This look made Liu Chenrui very angry. If it were in the past, how could he dare to look at him with that expression.

He's just a centurion, yet he dares to be so arrogant!

Just as he was about to get angry, he saw a cold and chilling gaze looking at him.

The coldness seemed to penetrate deep into the bone marrow, not only the bone marrow was cold, but even the roots of the teeth were trembling with cold.

"What are you looking at? Go and guard the water source!"

Liu Chenrui felt frightened when Gu Yan'an looked at him. He shouted angrily and turned away, muttering to himself.

A wild boy from the country, his eyes were like a wolf cub, as if he would pounce on you and bite off a piece of meat in the next second.

Although his words were sharp, his back looked a little embarrassed.

……

"The commander asked us to guard the water source. Will the enemy poison it tonight?"

Liu Dashan wiped the spear in his hand. Under the moonlight, the spear looked as bright as snow.

The next second seemed to be able to penetrate the long night and pierce the enemy's chest.

Gu Yanan leaned against the tree, his narrow eyes staring at the bright moon in the dark night sky. Hearing this, he curled his lips and smiled.

"The Northwest Imperial Army is not stupid. They will not use the same tricks. If they want to make people panic, intimidating them every day is useful for ordinary people, but it is not very effective in the military camp. But if they make surprise attacks from time to time."

"No matter what means they use, their goal is to cause a certain amount of panic. Anyway, we will be fine tonight, don't worry."

Even if the Northwest Black Knights wanted to raid other places, they would most likely not go straight to him.

Last night he took the man's sword and he could feel the man's fear.

Liu Dashan nodded, glanced at his brothers hiding in the bushes, and gave them a reassuring look.

Everyone's tense nerves relaxed, and the tired red bloodshot in their eyes faded a little.

The moon is rising above the branches, and deep night has arrived.

Gu Yanan was relaxed, but Liu Chenrui and the other people guarding various places were on edge, staring at their surroundings with eyes like eagles.

"Deputy General, do you think the Northwest Iron Cavalry will come again to attack?"

"Those small fry would not dare to invade us. They are just barbarians from the northwest. No matter how powerful they are, how powerful can they be?"

In Liu Chenrui's eyes, those were just tricks used by the northwestern barbarians to intimidate people.

After what happened last night, the army would naturally be well prepared. If those northwestern barbarians wanted to use the same old tricks, they could just catch them all in one fell swoop.

"However, I heard from Gu Yan'an that there is a man in the Northwest Imperial Army who has extremely high martial arts skills."

The deputy general who was close to Liu Chenrui said in a deep voice.

Liu Chenrui sneered, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

"He's just a country boy who knows a little bit of Kung Fu. How can he know what high Kung Fu is?"

After hearing what Liu Chenrui said, the others nodded.

"That's true. He's just a wild boy from the countryside. What can he understand? I'm afraid even the Northwest Imperial Guards don't know. It must be Liu Dashan who told him."

"He's just a little kid, why bother with him?"

"..."

Liu Chenrui looked towards the water source and vaguely saw a young man in armor, leaning against a tree branch, with a slight glance, as if looking at him through the branch.

Liu Chenrui suddenly remembered that cold gaze and felt unhappy.

After all, he was a deputy general, so how could he be frightened by such an ignorant kid? It must be because he was too nervous about what happened last night.

"Lieutenant General Liu, what's wrong with you? It's cold tonight, why are you sweating?"

"No, it's nothing."

Liu Chenrui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, lowered his eyes and thought about it.

"Everyone, this Gu Yan'an has a wild temper and is not afraid of death. I'm afraid he is not an easy soldier to deal with."

"After the New Year, if the situation stabilizes, we can follow the commander back to the capital to report on our work. We have military merits, so it is possible that we will be rewarded and promoted when we return to the capital."

As soon as Liu Chenrui said this, several deputy generals who were close to him looked solemn.

"But Gu Yan'an has a stubborn temper. If he rushes towards us, I'm afraid..."

"He is just a nobody with no power or background. Why should you be afraid, Brother Liu?"

"But, as you can see, the commander has noticed him, otherwise he wouldn't have let him guard the water source."
