Chapter 1106: Chapter 929, Troops at the City Gates

Xiliao suddenly launched a major war against Daxia, which was unexpected by everyone. Fortunately, Xiao Yeyang’s Hidden Guards placed in Xiliao transmitted the news back in time, allowing Xiao Yeyang to prepare in advance and preventing the Xiliao army from attacking Xiliang.

Xiliao deployed a force of 250,000 troops, and it took Xiao Yeyang three days to mobilize an equal number of soldiers to reach Xintunwei.

The two armies engaged in fierce combat at the border near Xintunwei.

In Ganzhou City, at the Xiao Residence.

Daohua was closely monitoring the development of the battle at Xintunwei every day.

Seeing her tense expression, Guo Ruomei worried it would affect her labor, and had to stay by her side to comfort her constantly: "There’s only half a month left until the birth. At this time, it’s best to avoid overthinking. If not for your own sake, think of the baby. A mother’s emotions can affect the child."

Daohua replied, "Mother, rest assured, I am aware of the limits."

Guo Ruomei knew it was impossible to keep Daohua from worrying at this time, and after thinking it over, she shared the news discovered by Chu Lang:

"Although the battle is still intertwined, Yeyang is not at a disadvantage. The casualties of Xiliao are nearly twice that of Daxia’s soldiers. I believe it won’t be long before Xiliao will retreat due to the heavy losses of their soldiers."

Daohua nodded, "I hope so."

At that moment, Chu Lang, who had gone out to gather news, entered the courtyard with a smile.

Seeing him like this, Guo Ruomei knew there must be good news and immediately asked, "Has the Daxia army won another victory?"

Chu Lang smiled and nodded: "The Xiliao forces can’t break through the fortification’s defense. Today, they’ve slain thousands of Xiliao soldiers. Furthermore, Yeyang seems to have discovered the route of Xiliao’s grain transport team, and he’s already leading the cavalry to cut off Xiliao’s army food supply."

Hearing this, Guo Ruomei’s face also showed joy: "If Yangyang really cuts off the Xiliao army’s food supply, Xiliao will have no choice but to retreat."

Chu Lang continued with a smile: "Your son is very ambitious. He doesn’t need to personally go to destroy the Xiliao army’s food supply. He wants to, after destroying it, coordinate with the soldiers in the fortification to attack the Xiliao army from both sides and completely annihilate the Xiliao troops."

Daohua sat quietly on the side, listening to their conversation. Initially, she was quite happy to hear about Xiao Yeyang’s discovery of the Xiliao grain transport route. Gradually, she began to feel a faint sense of unease.

Guo Ruomei noticed Daohua’s expression and quickly asked, "Yiyi, what’s wrong?"

Daohua frowned, "Xiao Yeyang personally attacking the Xiliao grain convoy, with no one commanding the fortification, I’m a bit worried."

Chu Lang laughed, "You young lady, don’t worry needlessly. Xiao Yeyang is comprehensive in his planning, he will surely have arranged the commanders properly."

Daohua’s brow remained furrowed, and she didn’t know whether it was because it was nearing her time to give birth, but lately, she tended to think pessimistically.

Take this situation as an example; she felt that Xiao Yeyang’s discovery of Xiliang’s grain transport route was too easy and coincidental. Xiao Yeyang’s personal involvement in the ambush made her suspect that the Xiliang people were deliberately baiting a trap.

"Could it be that Xiao Yeyang has fallen for Xiliao’s scheme?"

Guo Ruomei and Chu Lang were momentarily stunned.

Then Chu Lang laughed, "That guy is shrewd. If the Xiliao try to set him up, they should be careful not to be outmaneuvered themselves."

Thinking of Xiao Yeyang’s meticulous mind, always strategizing before acting, Daohua felt slightly reassured.

After lunch, when Daohua wanted to lie down for a while, Guo Ruomei and Chu Lang left.

After they left, Daohua found herself unable to sleep and asked her maid, Guyu, "During this time of combat, the city gates are closed. Is everything still peaceful in the city?"

Guyu laughed, "The city is as it was before, except there are a few more patrol officers on the streets. When the servant went out to buy things, she encountered them several times."

At this time, Lixia smiled and took over the conversation: "At this time, the more officers in the city, the more at ease the citizens will be."

Hearing this, a flash of insight crossed Daohua’s mind, and she stood up abruptly.

The attendant Lixia and Bi Shi were startled to see this.

"Madam, what’s wrong?"

Daohua looked urgently at Bi Shi, "Quickly, go call mother and Uncle Chu back, and Dongli as well, have him come over."

Guo Ruomei and Chu Lang had not gone far, and soon they returned.

"Yiyi, what’s the matter?"

Seeing Daohua’s pale complexion, Guo Ruomei hurriedly came forward to support her.
