Then, they understood everything.

Fortunately, they were overthinking things.

The mistress was undoubtedly a woman, but she was dressed in men’s clothing for convenience.

After heaving a sigh of relieve, the three of them couldn’t help but feel envious.

Their general was too lucky. His face was disfigured, but he could still marry such a capable and beautiful woman.

Li Xiao gave the three captains some instructions before leaving with Lin Xiaoyue.

“What’s the situation with the two groups of soldiers who came by land?” Lin Xiaoyue quickly asked Li Xiao.

“Deputy General Wang and the others have already retreated.”

“As for Xiao Yang…” Li Xiao frowned.

“I asked Xiao Yang to take 1,500 men and stay at Eagle Cliff to stop the Imperial Court’s army that was chasing after us.”

“They should still be there at this time.”

Lin Xiaoyue estimated the distance from Eagle Cliff to Hanshan Town and quickly frowned.

“Xiao Yang only has 1,500 people. Can they hold them off?”

The previous plan did not mention anything about stopping the Imperial Court’s army.

However,this could ensure the 1,500 people led by Deputy General Wang be able to evacuate safely.

The chances of the 3,000 soldiers at the ferry escaping would also greatly increase.

However, Xiao Yang and the 1,500 people were in danger.

“Sure.” Li Xiao’s eyes flashed with determination.

“The people assigned to Xiao Yang are the elites of the Nangong Army. In addition, Eagle Cliff is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It would not be easy for the Imperial Court’s army to break through the pass.”

Lin Xiaoyue’s brows were still furrowed.

“But there are only 1,500 soldiers. No matter how strong the Nangong Army is, they had limited manpower and energy. If the Imperial Court continued to send more troops, Xiao Yang would be in danger.”

“How long do you want Xiao Yang to hold them off for?” Lin Xiaoyue asked again.

“Two hours.” Li Xiao replied.

He had considered the time.

If it was too short, it was not enough for them to retreat.

If the time was too long, just like what Lin Xiaoyue was worried about, he was also worried that Xiao Yang and the others would not be able to hold on.

After the Nangong Army escaped, Emperor Yan would definitely be furious.

Liu Renyi could only give Emperor Yan an explanation if he captured Xiao Yang, the culprit who led the Nangong Army away.

Therefore, the old turtle would not give up on chasing after Xiao Yang.

Defending Eagle Cliff for two hours was just within Xiao Yang’s ability.

However, it was almost reaching his limit.

Lin Xiaoyue’s heart sank.

“Arrange for the soldiers to evacuate as soon as possible. Then, we’ll go to the town entrance to receive Xiao Yang.”

After Xiao Yang led his soldiers away from Eagle Cliff, the Imperial Court’s army would definitely pursue them.

At that time, the rest of the Nangong Army had already fled. Xiao Yang’s men replaced the 3,000 men who had taken the water route and became the only target.

Li Xiao’s expression changed.

He didn’t want Lin Xiaoyue to go with him, but seeing Lin Xiaoyue’s determined face, he didn’t say anything.

According to his original plan, after arranging for the soldiers to leave, he was also prepared to go back to meet Xiao Yang.

Now that his wife was going, he would go with her.

Fortunately, she wanted to meet at the town entrance. They didn’t have to travel long distances, and he would be less worried about her.

In less than 15 minutes, all the officers and men had finally boarded the ship.

The three captains came over and said goodbye to Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao. They took Cheng An and boarded the ship.

After today, the Fulai Inn wasn’t safe anymore. Cheng An also needed to retreat.

As for Head Fang and Manager Liang, they should have left with Deputy General Wang.

The ship disappeared into the distance.

Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao looked at each other and then began to store the armor and halberds left behind by the Nangong Army in their interspatial rings.

Most of these items were made of iron and were very valuable. It would be a pity to throw them away.

After packing up, the two of them went to the town entrance.

At the designated location, they also collected the armor and halberds left behind by the deputy general’s team.

“Give me your interspatial ring.” Lin Xiaoyue suddenly said to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao took off the ring and gave it to Lin Xiaoyue.

Lin Xiaoyue did something and return the ring to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao took the ring and checked it, only to find that there were many guns and grenades inside.

His face lit up with joy as he looked at Lin Xiaoyue.

“When Xiao Yang and the others arrive, let them leave first. We’ll stay behind to fight.” Lin Xiaoyue said in a deep voice.

With that, two bulletproof vests appeared in her hands.

“Put it on.” She threw one of them to Li Xiao.

“Yes.” Li Xiao had heard from Lin Xiaoyue about the power of the bulletproof vest, so he immediately put it on..
