Yu Youyao also walked out of the tent and took over the task of a.s.sisting the military doctor to treat the injured soldiers.

She was familiar with pharmacology and had studied the emergency treatment method written by Consort Zhou Li. She could flawlessly cooperate with several military doctors flawlessly.

The military doctors even gave up after treating some seriously injured soldiers and stabilizing half of their injuries, letting Yu Youyao deal with them.

No one knew that she was the high and mighty Eldest Princess Shaoyi, a n.o.ble lady born into a rich estate.

They only knew that there was a very good-looking female military doctor in the camp.

This battle lasted from morning to night.

There was no news of victory. The soldiers who were brought down did not mention the situation on the battlefield, and the people in the camp did not ask. Everyone did their best to do what they could do now.

As the sky gradually darkened, candle lights and a bonfire lit up the camp.

Yu Youyao was extremely hungry. She was so tired that she couldnt straighten her back, but she still gritted her teeth and persevered. She bandaged the wound of a soldier who had been stabbed in the chest and called the orderly over. Hes too seriously injured. He lost too much blood just now. Its cold at night. He has to be sent to the intensive care tent. Get the military doctor in charge of intensive care to take care of him and prevent a fever at

Just as she was explaining, Madam Ming brought over a bowl of great millet paste. Eldest Princess, youve been busy all day and havent rested your feet. Hurry up and eat a bowl of great millet paste to fill your stomach first. The soldiers in the tent were all stunned.

Yu Youyao looked at the bloodstained tent. The soldiers wails, moans, and cries of pain sounded from time to time.

She had seen the cruelest side of war.

There were soldiers with broken limbs, and there were also soldiers with rotten intestines who had their intestines stuffed back by the military doctor. She saw the tragic scene of a cut from their eyes to their chins, and even their heads were almost split in half. She also saw the seriously injured soldiers

All of this had a huge impact on her.

However, she was very busy.

She was so busy that she did not have time to grieve, fear, or be afraid.

She could only keep moving like a mule, not letting herself stop. It was as if this was the only way she could help more people and ignore these tragic scenes.

She had no appet.i.te, no appet.i.te at all.

Even though she was already so hungry that she had no strength.

Madam Ming sighed softly. Have some. I dont know when this battle will stop. We still have to be busy later. Dont starve yourself.

Yu Youyaos eyes turned red. Her trembling hands were covered in blood. She took the thick bowl, raised her head, and poured the paste into her mouth. She forced herself to eat even if she didnt want to.

Millet flour paste had a simple taste that was a little piercing to the throat.

However, she also knew that no one had time to carefully make food for her. The millet flour paste that the soldiers ate was all mixed with coa.r.s.e chaff, and it tasted even worse than her bowl.

Yu Youyao ate a bowl of millet flour paste with tears in her eyes.

Madam Ming patted her shoulder. Rest for 15 minutes before continuing!

This battle lasted until late at night. Finally, there was news from the front line. The Di people have temporarily retreated.

Yu Youyao suddenly heaved a sigh of relief.

However, there was still an endless stream of injured soldiers retreating from the front line and returning to the camp to treat their injuries. Yu Youyao was so tired that her eyes were dizzy. Only when she couldnt hold on anymore did she ask Chun Xiao to help her back to the tent.

What Yu Youyao did not know was that she had been busy treating the injured in the army from morning to late at night. During this period, she had only eaten one bowl of great millet paste like the soldiers. After that night, this news had already spread throughout the entire camp.

A soldier did not believe it. Eldest Princess Shaoyi is precious. Why would she come to the army to suffer? Bulls.h.i.+t.

However, the orderly in charge of the seriously injured camp said, Madam

Ming said it herself. I was at the side at that time and personally watched Eldest Princess Shaoyi drink a bowl of great millet paste. Now no one suspected anything.

Someone asked, Which one is Eldest Princess Shaoyi?

The orderly said, Shes the smallest and best-looking military doctor from the seriously injured camp.

Many soldiers came to a realization. Most of the women in Liaodong were tall and strong. Someone as pet.i.te as Eldest Princess Shaoyi was indeed quite eye-catching. They had discussed her many times before.

At the mention of the orderly, everyone knew who he was talking about. Previously, everyone had realized that the female military doctor did not look ordinary. However, they did not know that she was Eldest Princess Shaoyi.

The soldiers praised Eldest Princess Shaoyi for being beautiful and kind.

That night, Yu Youyao did not sleep well. Her broken and scattered dreams were filled with b.l.o.o.d.y and cruel war fragments.

She had only slept for about four hours. When she woke up, her temples were throbbing, her eyes were dry and uncomfortable, and even her throat was hoa.r.s.e. What time is it now?

Xia Tao quickly replied, Young Miss, its just past dawn.

Yu Youyao put on her shoes and was about to get up when she felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.

Chun Xiao was shocked. Young Miss, whats wrong?

Im fine. Yu Youyaos face was pale, but her eyes were filled with determination. Hows the situation at the camp? Is there any news of the front line?

Xia Tao looked at her worriedly. In the second half of the night, a group of lightly injured soldiers was withdrawn from the front line and returned to the camp. The military doctors took turns to deal with them. Theyre all fine. I heard from Madam Ming that there were fewer casualties in this battle, and the Di people retreated again. We definitely won. The atmosphere in the camp today has become much more relaxed.

However, Yu Youyaos heart was heavy. She was not as optimistic as Xia Tao.

She had dealt with many injured soldiers who had been carried back from the front line. All of them had painful and sorrowful expressions. Meng Duos plan to defeat the Great Zhou had a huge impact on the You army.

She even suspected since there were fewer casualties in the army, what about the generals who fought?

Were they all fine?

The corners of her lips twitched slightly. Her smile was even uglier than when she was crying. She forced herself to eat a boiled egg, two steamed buns, and a bowl of millet flour paste. She patted her face, planning to go to the injured camp to help.

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the tent.

Yu Youyaos heart sank. She quickly lifted the curtain and left the tent. She saw General Lin, who was guarding the camp, clench his fists and punch Yin Huaixis face.

Youre the commander-in-chief of an army! All the soldiers in the army and the citizens of the Great Zhou Dynasty believe in you. How can you let General Ming Wei give the order to kill the citizens of our Great Zhou?

How can you watch helplessly as General Ming Wei brought the good men of our You Army to their deaths?

Didnt you boast that youve calculated everything? Why dont you think of a way to break out of the situation? Why do you watch helplessly as the dog Di people kill the citizens of the Great Zhou and humiliate our soldiers?

Yin Huaixi, youre a coward!

General Lin was also an old general in the army. He was a little older than General Ming Wei and had a high prestige in the army. As he was old, he could not go to the battlefield. Every time the war rose, he would preside over the camp to secure the rear. With such an experienced old general presiding over the camp, the camp became an unbreakable rear for the frontline soldiers..
