Chapter 1860 Jin’er
So, it was basically impossible for Shan Yu to avoid being targeted should the situation turned dire. Yu Jin will never allow such a situation to appear.
But she will still share some things to him. "Well, it's quite bad because we have to change our plans again." Yu Jin pouted. She felt that the Heaven was truly not on their side in this war. At the very least, this was the first time she felt that there were so many setback was given to Fei Yang Kingdom. The loss of General Feng had just been spread not long ago.
And now, her own army was also facing a crisis of annihilation because the amount of food they have left wouldn't allow them to last more than a month in this land.
In that one month, could they even do anything significant?
They had to figure out a way to earn more food or they would not be able to survive at all. It was frustrating to think that they would be pushed to this end in just one battle. But that was just how the war is.
One mistake is all they needed to turn the advantageous situation into a complete defeat. Though, Yu Jin is not about to give up so easily. "It'll get better," Shan Yu said reassuringly. "Uh huh. How's the injured?"
"Most of them would be able to follow the army, so you don't have to worry about them being left behind. However, some of them are heavily wounded and I told them that they're not allowed to walk on their own, so someone had to carry them," Shan Yu explained.
He was naturally not the only doctor in the army. With so many wounded soldiers in Yu Jin's army, he would be thoroughly exhausted if he were to be tasked to heal all of them. But he was still given quite the important position, so he was able to know the overall situation of the injured. "Hmm, it's not good at all." Yu Jin was annoyed once again. These soldiers would slow her down and Yu Jin was not about to leave them behind. She was not the type of person who would abandon her people. Since she brought them here, unless they died and be buried in the ground, she would bring them all back!
"They're just like you, not willing to give up in the slightest bit," Shan Yu said. "Even if they can't walk anymore, I'm sure they will crawl just to follow you."
Yu Jin's high prestige in the army was something that Shan Yu admired very much. This was not the first time he saw a general who was admired by their soldiers. But seeing her shine so much made him really amazed. The soldiers were all willing to follow her until their grave without any hesitation at all. He was sure that if these soldiers were asked to sacrifice their lives for Yu Jin, they would not hesitate at all and obediently handed over their lives. The degree of loyalty was so high. "That's because I've been taking care of them for a long time!" Yu Jin snorted. "These people just come to me when they're troubled and let me hear their embarrassing matters and have me comfort them again and again…"
The beginning of these people willing to follow her couldn't be said to be glorious at all.
In fact, it was really embarrassing for Yu Jin.
Because she knew very well that these travelers or runaway who came to Mountain Xia at that time only wanted to find a place where they could stay alive without being chased or being seen by others.
And because of their bottled up emotions, they ended up telling her everything that was buried in their heart. Yu Jin, who was still young at that time, was actually quite annoyed at them. But at the same time, she was sympathetic and willing to accept them as part of the Mountain Tribe even with their past.
Because she could see that when they were telling their stories, their eyes reflected their pain. The pain that they didn't want to say but unwilling to bury either. Thus, she helped to console them and if possible, she would help them to take care of their problems. Again and again. It repeated for most of her teenage years before she met Nan Hua and eventually became part of Fei Yang Kingdom. Because at that time, war had started and it was impossible for refugee to come to the Mountain Tribe's territory anymore due to various reasons.
And at that time, Yu Jin also no longer has the time to care about each and every single one of their problems.
But these soldiers who used to come with her at the beginning were all very loyal to her.
They became her commanders and wiling to listen to her words. Many of them become her commanders whom she trusted. Of course, they were different from Wu Shan who had become her sworn brother, but they all had certain rights in the army that was different from others. Yu Jin told Shan Yu about what she did at her younger age.
And Shan Yu was only listening at the side as Yu Jin vent her emotions. It was only at this time, he felt that she was truly only a young woman who was only 24 years old and not only the strong and capable leader of the Mountain Tribe.
In front of her men, she was showing her strong demeanor and the authority as the Queen of the Mountain Tribe.
In front of Wu Shan and Nan Hua, she was showing her playful and real side. The side she would never show to others because she had to take care of her image.
And in front of him, she was telling more of the deepest feeling in his heart. After Yu Jin was done, Shan Yu stretched his hand and pulled Yu Jin to his embrace. She was actually a bit shorter and smaller than him, but in normal days, it was hard to notice it. It was only now he felt that she was actually quite small. "You did great, Jin'er."
