Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 921 So it's been this long already.

No one knows why Lu Fengjin can act so recklessly.

However, the army from the Urchin League actually joined the battlefield of the Daganlu League on the evening of the second day.

This battle lasted a long time, from when Chu Yueli was more than three months pregnant until she was ten months pregnant, and the battle was still not over.

At first, the Khitan King Yelü Han was not clear about Lu Fengjin's intentions and dared not go all out in supporting the Daganlu Alliance.

Later, even the Khitan king seemed to understand.

Lu Fengjin's ultimate goal was to completely exhaust Lu Beimo's Northern Cavalry and Chu Yueli's Chu Family Army in Southern Mongolia.

He stationed his troops in a city dozens of miles away from Urchin League, neither advancing nor retreating, and half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

Qin Wu went from being extremely anxious at the beginning to eventually having no choice but to let it go.

The prince will bear eternal infamy, but in the end, he may indeed be able to seize the throne.

So Qin Wu took it all in stride, after all, the person he was loyal to was King Jin, not Chu Yueli.

As for the other front in southern Mongolia, the Sulan League.

Because the Daganlu League had not been captured, the Qin family army and the Ming family army, which came as reinforcements from the southern border, were unable to join forces with the Northern Cavalry Army and the Chu family army.

The war has remained deadlocked.

Before you know it, it's the dead of winter again.

This winter is particularly cold.

It wasn't because of the bad weather, but because this was Chu Yueli's first time spending the winter in Southern Mongolia.

I thought southern Xinjiang was cold enough, but I didn't expect southern Inner Mongolia to be even colder than southern Xinjiang? Perhaps it's because this year is indeed colder than usual?

Chu Yue is about to give birth, and Lu Beimo has been spending all his time with her lately.

Because of the snow and wind outside, the fighting has been suspended for more than a month.

Although the Dongling army was an outside force, fortunately Chu Yueli had the foresight to know that Lu Fengjin was unwilling to send troops, and thus knew that this battle would be very long.

She had instructed Miao Yucui and Huo Qing to lead the soldiers to develop agriculture on days when there was no fighting.

After winter set in, they retreated to Dorub, and with the help of the local people, their military rations were not in short supply for a while.

However, during this period, Chu Yueli's body began to swell, and even her movements became somewhat inconvenient.

That night, after Huo Qing came to take her pulse, she called two midwives over to wait, which made Lu Beimo quite nervous.

"Third Aunt, is Ali about to give birth?" The two midwives just stood by without saying a word, which scared Lu Beimo half to death.

Huo Qing nodded, then shook her head: "It looks like it will be in the next couple of days, but it still depends on Ali's own situation."

“Then why…” Lu Beimo turned around and looked back.

The two midwives remained standing to the side, saying nothing.

"I brought them here for Ali to see. If she doesn't like them, I have two more as backups."

In order to ensure that Chu Yueli could give birth safely, Huo Qing had been looking for a midwife for a month.

Fortunately, after half a year of recovery, Sukru and Dorub began to prosper again. Now, people are gradually returning to Dorub City, which was quite lively before winter.

The streets have only just begun to quiet down after the heavy snowfall.

But before winter arrived, Huo Qing had already made all the necessary preparations.

Lu Beimo was still flustered: "Does that mean A-Li... could give birth at any moment?"

"Hmm." Huo Qing nodded: "Maybe tonight, or maybe tomorrow, it could happen anytime."
