However, if there was really a war, the Luo Kingdom’s people could still climb up the mountain. Although it was a dangerous peak, it was not impossible.
Of course, only small teams could come and attack from the front and back. After breaking through the pass, they would then converge and attack Luoping County and the Shen family army’s encampment.
Thus, the people patrolling had to be very careful, and they needed to spread out a lot of manpower.
“Little Sister, you’re right. In fact, after they came up, they entered the county town and held Lord Marquis and the others hostage while secretly sneaking up to the palace pass.”
“Fortunately, Song Yan and the others that the Young General sent bumped into the other party. Otherwise, I’m afraid we would have lost the initiative. There aren’t many people at the pass, and it would have been breached.”
“The Luo Kingdom has gathered 20,000 soldiers at the Cloud Ridge Hill. 2,000 of them have sneaked up. They are all elites.”
“There are 20,000 troops at the pass, but if they are caught off guard, something will still happen,” Ye Hao explained.
He learned that Ye Muyu and warned the Young General about it.
Although Ye Hao did not know why his little sister knew everything about the battlefield, it was not surprising that she loved reading.
“Sister, have some chicken soup.” Madam Han came over with a bowl of chicken soup.
Ye Muyu thanked her, “Sister-in-law, where did you buy this chicken?”
“It’s from the government. They’re distributing food, but we need to buy meat like this. Little Sister, it’s good that you were hiding,” Madam Han said.
“What do you mean?” Although Ye Muyu had a guess, she was not sure.
“I just went out and found out that during these six days, the Luo Kingdom’s soldiers would patrol the county every day. During this period, some of the civilians who were hiding came out to look for food or wanted to leave the city, but they were caught and killed.”
Ye Muyu’s expression changed slightly. No wonder the Luo Kingdom’s soldiers did not deliberately search for people. After all, as long as they caught some civilians, they would know that there was a cellar in the city.
However, they did not come looking for them.
The reason now seemed to be that they did not have enough manpower and did not have the energy to search.
The people hiding in the cellar could not do anything if they did not come out, so they naturally could not affect what they wanted to do.
They had captured the people from the Marquis’ residence, and they already had hostages. They only needed to wait for the elites on the other side to attack the pass and they would succeed.
The commoners who were killed were also to prevent spies from sneaking out. They would rather kill the wrong person than let him go.
Fortunately, the other party did not have many people. Ye Muyu sighed. Otherwise, she would have lost her life. She had made the right choice this time.
“Daughter, have a good rest after you finish eating. Mother will accompany you.” Old Madam Ye felt really guilty towards her daughter.
Seeing that Ye Muyu was done eating, she went to the house and made the bed.
The previous houses were all robbed. They were lucky. Perhaps they did not meet anyone, so the Luo Kingdom soldiers did not set the houses on fire. After cleaning up the houses, people could live in them.
Ye Muyu followed her into the house. Seeing that her mother had made the bed, she did not refuse. She planned to rest for a while. It would take some time for the city to settle down.
“Mother, Han Zhuang didn’t come back four days ago after he went out to inquire about the news. Ask Big Brother to send someone to ask.” Ye Muyu reminded him.
Old Woman Ye nodded. “Rest assured. Mother will tell your big brother after you fall asleep.”
Ye Muyu had not had a good rest in the past few days. They only laid a layer of cloth on the floor. The floor was very hard, so it was naturally uncomfortable to sleep. After lying down, she fell asleep very quickly.
