Chapter 736: Loving one’s country: They are enemies! (Part 37)

“You’re finally awake, how do you feel?”  Zuo Qi Yue came to her side.  He was planning to come over to see how she was, but he never thought the soldier would suddenly come to report.

Luo Qing Chen waved her hand and said with knitted brows, “It’s nothing.”

“The poison in you isn’t light, you should rest over the next few days.”  Zuo Qi Yue said with knitted brows, “Although you weren’t married, you are still half from the Zuo Family.  Right now Mu Ran isn’t here……”

“I think there’s no need to be polite.”  Luo Qing Chen pursed her lips and said, “If my guesses are right, the Japanese should already be camped in An Ning City, right?”

How could young miss Nai Zi give up such a good chance?

After a while, Zuo Qi Yue said with a sigh, “Yes…..”

“I heard him say before……”  Luo Qing Chen seemed to be remembering something specific as her eyes turned red, but she still said in a very calm voice, “An Ning City is easy to defend and hard to attack, right?”

“Right!  Because of the terrain, it’s very easy to be bombarded by bullets if you approach.”  Zuo Qi Yue said with a helpless smile, “Thankfully it’s the age of firearms, or it wouldn’t be that easy to defend.”

“Ke, ke.”  Luo Qing Chen let out a long breath and used all her strength to stand up, “Give me a ten mile map of An Ning City.”

“There’s one in the study, it’s from when Mu Ran was searching for you.  It’s still there.”  Zuo Qi Yue looked at her with complicated emotions in his eyes.

When she entered Zuo Mu Ran’s study, there was a faint sandalwood scent in the air that was refreshing.

The study was very organized and everything had a certain place.

Her lips curled slightly.  It was like seeing this study, she could feel Zuo Mu Ran’s upright feel.

But when she stood in front of her map, her nose became stuffy and she almost cried.

There were many marks on the map, designating all the places that one could hide in.  He had drawn on the map again and again.

She softly stroked the grooves of the writing, as if she could feel how anxious he was if she closed her eyes.

There were traces of water stains on the lower right corner, but they were already dry.

Had he been crying when he was looking at this map?

Her heart suddenly filled with discomfort, but she knew that she couldn’t be weak at this time.

This was the small city that Zuo Mu Ran used his youth to protect and now that he wasn’t here, she had to protect it for him!

After looking through the breakthrough points, she received news Zuo Qi Yue sent through a report.

Young miss Nai Zi had already prepared a battle plan and was planning to attack tomorrow.

This was provocation from the Japanese, looking down on them.

The moon and the stars were very faint at night as they shined down on Zuo Mu Ran’s study.

Luo Qing Chen couldn’t help knitting her brows at Zuo Qi Yue’s analysis of both side’s fighting strength.

“What are our chances of successfully defending the city?”  Zuo Qi Yue looked at the focused Luo Qing Chen and tentatively asked this.

Without knowing why, in Zuo Qi Yue’s eyes, although she was a woman, she had decisively killed Hitoda and Kouichi, which meant that her abilities were better than most people in the army.

Luo Qing Chen thought for a bit, “80%.”

“That high?”  Zuo Qi Yue clearly was in a bit of disbelief.

Luo Qing Chen said with a faint smile, “We can cut off their water source.”

She pointed at two places on the map and said, “It’ll be deep winter soon and these two rivers are their only sources of water.  One is frozen and as for the other……”
