All this happened between the lightning and flint, Yuan Fang kept looking back at the corpse of the female soldier while galloping on his horse, his heart was very painful, but he was helpless, he hated this feeling.

At this time, the cavalry who came to support arrived, led by a tendon Liang Tie, Liang Tie was finally relieved to see that Yuan Fang was fine, and sent a thousand cavalry to protect Yuan Fang's withdrawal, and he himself roared and rushed towards the enemy with the remaining three thousand cavalry.

The cavalry of the defending army did not blindly pursue Yuan Fang, and when they saw that the other party's reinforcements had arrived, they could not do anything, so they immediately turned around and went east along the city wall. Liang Tie was already a step late, and with the cover of the opponent's archers on the city wall, Liang Tie didn't dare to get too close, but in this way, it would be difficult to catch up with the other party, and in the end he could only watch the cavalry of less than a thousand enter the east city gate, and only then did he return in a huff until the city gate was closed again.

As for the West City Gate, it had been closed after the defenders' 1,000 cavalry left the city, and Yuan Fang couldn't catch up even if they were fast, so it can be seen that this sneak attack was premeditated by the other party a long time ago, and all the arrangements were almost seamless without loopholes.

Retreating to a safe distance, Yuan Fang grabbed the reins and shouted loudly: "Military doctor, military doctor, come here." Then, he turned over and dismounted and treated the wounded.

It was only a short fight, and the female soldiers were not injured much, only a dozen knife wounds, and the rest were all arrow wounds, but fortunately, their armor was strong enough, and there were almost no injuries, and they only needed to simply treat the wounds and recuperate for a while.

Yuan Fang helped Xia Yi wrap the wound on his arm, looked at the closed gate of Yuhong County and couldn't help but sigh: "Alas, am I too impulsive? ”

Xia Yi nodded and said: "Well, brother-in-law, you are too impulsive, obviously, those guys are coming for you, have you seen it, the gate was closed after their cavalry came out, and you still want to capture the city gate?" That's obviously impossible. ”

Yuan Fang nodded slightly, thinking of the female soldier who was shot by the heavy crossbow, he felt a pain in his heart, sat on the ground and hung his head and said, "If it weren't for me, those female soldiers wouldn't have died, Qingru, have the casualties been counted?" ”

Ye Qingru nodded, and said in a heavy tone: "The statistics are out, two people were sacrificed this time, and thirty-eight people were injured, of which three were seriously injured, and they need to be sent to the rear for recuperation." ”

Yuan Fang nodded and said softly, "Let people get the bodies of the sisters back and send them to the Dark Fragrance Mausoleum for burial." After speaking, he stood up and walked away with his hands behind his back, Xia Yi and the girls glanced at each other, they all saw deep self-blame in Yuan Fang's eyes, and the women followed with a secret sigh, and walked back to the camp on foot.

Along the way, Yuan Fang was silent and didn't say a word, even when he saw Yuqing, who hurried after learning the news, he also remained silent, and walked silently.

In the evening of the same day, in the tent next to Yuan Fang's big tent, Xia Yi sat on the blanket and watched Huo Bingyan sew up the damaged armor, a cold wind blew in, Xia Yi looked at the door of the tent, and asked Ye Qingru who walked in with anticipation: "Qingru, brother-in-law, how is he?" Have you eaten? ”

Ye Qingru shook her head and said, "No, the food sent didn't move, and I was still looking at the map in a daze." ”

Xia Yi asked anxiously, "What about Sister Yuqing?" She didn't persuade her brother-in-law? ”

Ye Qingru shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Persuade, it's useless, this time my brother-in-law may have been hit too hard, he always thinks that the more than twenty sisters who died were caused by his mistakes." ”

Huo Bingyan sighed and said: "Everyone saw the situation at that time, there was nothing wrong with my brother-in-law doing that, it was a good opportunity, but the other party was too cunning, my brother-in-law's decision was right, if I did it again, I would do the same." ”

Ye Qingru shrugged and said, "We know what's the use, brother-in-law, he just can't step through this hurdle." ”

Huo Bingyan handed the mended armor to Xia Yi, looked at Huo Bingyan and said, "What about Menghan?" At the brother-in-law's? ”

Huo Bingyan nodded: "Well, watch it there." ”

Huo Bingyan thought for a while and said: "Xia Yi, Bingyan, you rest first, Menghan and I are guarding my brother-in-law, you will come to change shifts later, by the way, you must keep an eye on it these days, I'm afraid that my brother-in-law won't be able to think about it." ”

Xia Yi smiled: "Sister Bingyan, brother-in-law, his kind of character shouldn't do stupid things, right?" ”

Huo Bingyan glared at Xia Yi: "Don't talk nonsense, be careful, just in case." ”

The next morning, just after dawn, Yuan Fang went to the logistics camp, personally sorted out the military uniforms for the sacrificed female soldiers, wiped off the blood stains on the armor, and personally carried them into the carriage, stood in the cold wind and watched them leave, until the convoy disappeared at the end of sight before returning to the camp.

For the next whole day, Yuan Fang locked himself in the tent and saw no one, not even Yuqing and Xia Yi, Xia Yi and the others were worried, this was something that had never happened before.

Another night passed, and just when Xia Yi and the others were worried to the extreme and ready to persuade Yuan Fang, Yuan Fang's voice sounded: "Xia Yi, Bing Yan." ”

When Xia Yi and the girls walked into the big tent in surprise and saw Yuan Fang, they couldn't help but be stunned, although Yuan Fang is not very handsome, but he usually pays attention to his image, no matter whether he goes out or not, whether it is his hair or beard, he is neatly groomed every day, but now, Yuan Fang can be described as unkempt, with messy hair, stubble full of chin, slightly dark eye circles, haggard expression, and looks particularly decadent.

Xia Yi couldn't help but ask, "Brother-in-law, are you okay?" ”

Yuan Fang smiled faintly: "It's okay." As he spoke, he looked at the empty hands of the four women, and couldn't help but say, "I haven't eaten for a day, and you guys don't say anything to bring me something to eat, what?" Do you want to starve me? ”

Huo Bingyan was stunned when she heard this, and then she was overjoyed: "Brother-in-law, wait a minute, the food will arrive soon." After speaking, he pulled Lin Menghan and walked out.

Yuan Fang asked loudly: "Take more, I'm dying of hunger." ”

Xia Yimei ran to Yuan Fang's side with a smile, grabbed his arm, and tears appeared in his eyes: "Brother-in-law, it's great that you're fine, do you know, we are all worried to death if you haven't eaten or drunk for the past two days." ”

Yuan Fang rubbed Xia Yi's hair dotingly, and said with a smile: "Your brother-in-law and I are not so easy to be defeated, I have not been idle in the past two days, and I finally thought of a solution to Guangyuan County." ”

Ye Qingru's eyes lit up: "Really? What's the solution? ”

Yuan Fang grinned: "Keep it secret for the time being, and I'll tell you when we get there." ”

Ye Qingru pouted and said, "Brother-in-law, are you still keeping it secret from us?" ”

Yuan Fang ignored Ye Qingru's coquettishness and ordered: "Qingru, you call someone to inform Tang Jian and ask him to come over as soon as possible." ”
