Chapter 1846: Arson Attack on the Mountain
"This matter just needs some time to work out. You go down and heal well first, I promise you, I will bring you what you need as soon as possible."

Waving his hand, Yelu Shenxuan ordered his soldiers to carry Yuan Shidao down for a rest.
Then, he summoned his personal guard.
"I will give you a thousand soldiers, and one hundred of my personal guards. You go to Yulin Prefecture, the nearest one, and gather according to what Mr. Yuan said before: one hundred boys and girls, and one hundred virgins."
After Yelu Shenxuan gave the order, he raised his eyes and scanned the generals in the camp, saying calmly: "My lords, although the main force is currently stalled, the progress cannot be halted because of Tiger Leap Gorge. Therefore, I will forcefully pass through Tiger Leap Gorge."
This statement left all the generals present trembling with fear.
What does "forcing through" mean?
Originally, a tiger would jump off this cliff. Now, clearing the scene would take at least half a day, with removing bodies and large rocks from the path. Only after clearing the obstacles could one continue passing through.
But to force it through, that's to directly smash the boulders. As for the corpses... just ignore them.
A large army stepped over the bodies of soldiers who had been killed in a surprise attack before them.
This order, no one dared to give, only Yelü Shenxuan.
If none of you object, then send someone to inform Yi Qu to relocate the mountain and execute the military order!
"I await...your orders."
······
How are you?
Sitting inside the tent, watching as the medic put away his examination tools, Li Chen shifted his gaze from Su Pingbei's blood-soaked face, which lay unconscious, and asked.

The military physician respectfully bowed to Li Chen and said, “Reporting to Your Highness, General Su’s injuries are quite severe. They have shaken his internal organs, and most importantly, his soul is agitated, causing him to be mentally scattered and unconscious. As for his physical injuries, as long as he receives proper care and the right medication, he could recover in three to five months. However, this mental disarray is not so simple. To be frank, there are currently no medicines or treatments that can effectively address spiritual symptoms... We can only hope that General Su’s own willpower will allow him to get through this.”
Li Chen frowned upon hearing this, his mood was not good.
Whether out of personal friendship with Supingbei or due to Supingbei's status, Li Chen would not allow anything to happen to him.
Su Pingbei is the only child of the Su family. If something happened to him here, Li Chen wouldn't know how to face Su Zhen Ting when he went back.
Is it truly necessary for Su Zhen'ting, so steadfast and devoted, to send his black-haired child off as a white-haired man?
"Do whatever it takes to cure him."
Li Chen stood up and said in a deep voice, "No matter what you need, just ask, someone will arrange it. There's only one thing, absolutely don't let him get into trouble."
The military doctor looked troubled, but seeing Li Chen's expression, he knew now was clearly not the time to refuse. So, gritting his teeth, he nodded and said, "Your Highness, please rest assured, I will do my best."
Casting one last glance at the unconscious Su Pingbei, Li Chen turned and left the tent.
Outside, someone was already waiting.
"Your Highness, a report from the north. The Liao army set fire to the mountains."
Hearing this, Li Chen's brow furrowed.
This decisive battle saw Yelü Shenxuan split his forces into two at the outset. The main force stationed at Tiger Leaping Gorge benefited from Su Pingbei's boldness, now causing significant trouble for the Liao army. Meanwhile, the situation at Luofengpo in the south proved highly unfavorable for the Qin army.
