Su Cheng, who was so angry because of his lateness, hurriedly apologized to Alisha.
"Sorry! I was wrong! I shouldn't have been late for so long!"
"snort."
After snorting coldly with his nose, Alisha finally turned around and faced Su Cheng.
"You know you're late? Do you know how long I've been waiting for you?"
"It's about 1 and a half hours..."
"Just you know."
After saying that, Alyssa pulled the quilt, turned around again, and turned her back towards Su Cheng.
"I want to sleep alone tonight. You can go back to your and Alan's big tent tonight."
"Alisa..." Su Cheng had a bitter face, "Lissa listen to my explanation, I have my own difficulties."
After saying that, Su Cheng explained in as simple words as possible what he had done just now.
From telling Alan the bedtime story until Deng Jiaer returns to find him.
After learning that Deng Jiaer was back, Alisa turned around and cast a puzzled look at Su Cheng.
"Why is Deng Jiaer going back to the main force?"
As soon as Alisa finished speaking, Su Cheng explained to Alisa the reason why Deng Jiaer came back and told her about Deng Jiaer's strategy to face the enemy.
After listening to Deng Jiaer's strategy to face the enemy, Alisa's face showed a strong look of surprise.
"Dengjar intends to use this strategy and her vanguard forces to fight against reinforcements from the Holy Hillan Empire?"
"No matter how you think about this strategy, it's too messy, right?"
"Su Cheng, have you agreed with Deng Jiaer's strategy?"
"Yes." Su Cheng nodded, "I agree."
"Deng Jiaer has gone down to rest now. She will return to the vanguard's camp tomorrow morning and lead the vanguard's troops to the position she chose to welcome the enemy."
"Did you agree?" Alisa exclaimed.
Alyssa, who was extremely surprised, lifted the thin quilt on her body and sat up from the bed.
"Su Cheng, what are you thinking?"
"I have a more secure strategy but don't choose it, but instead choose the one with the riskiest."
"The most secure strategy for facing the enemy now should not be to let the main force meet with the vanguard force and gather all the combat power of the Eastern Route Army to fight against the reinforcements of the Holy Xiran Empire?"
"I don't deny that this strategy of Deng Jiaer is feasible."
"But in terms of stability, Deng Jiaer's strategy is far from comparable to that of the strategy of letting the main force and the vanguard force meet."
Alisa wants to say something else.
But Su Cheng had raised his hand to stop her.
"Don't worry, I must have considered your concerns."
"But after weighing the left and right, I decided to let Deng Jiaer try it."
"After all, you have to leave some stage for others to grow up."
"I decided to trust Deng Jiaer."
"I believe Deng Jiaer will win."
"Just like Deng Jiaer himself believes that his strategy will succeed."
"Well..." Alisha glanced at Su Cheng with complicated eyes.
Then lay down again and cover the quilt again.
"Forget it, you are the commander-in-chief of the entire army. You can arrange whatever you want."
"It's already very late, go to bed."
After hearing Alisha's words, Su Cheng raised his eyebrows gently.
"Alisa." Su Cheng asked carefully, "Then... are you forgiven for being late?"
"Yeah." Alyssa, who had her whole body huddled in the quilt, nodded gently, "Since you really have something to do, I will forgive you this time."
"Thank you for your understanding!"
Seeing that Alisha had forgiven him, Su Cheng felt relieved.
While thanking Alisa, he took off his clothes as fast as possible.
After taking off her clothes and leaving only one single piece of clothing, Alisa suddenly said:
"But--I won't do that tonight."
"…????" Su Cheng looked at Alisha with a confused look on his face.
Su Cheng, whose brain didn't turn around for a while, asked blankly at Alyssa who was lying beside him:
"What's the meaning?"
"It's literal." Alisa said angrily, "Do you know what time it's now?"
"I'm really sleepy now."
"I don't have the energy or mood to do that."
"Forget it tonight, let's talk about it next time."
"Hey..." Su Cheng was still in a state of confusion.
"What?" Alisa casts an unhappy look at Su Cheng, "Would you be unhappy if you can't do that kind of thing when you're with me?"
"No, no!"
Under the influence of the desire to survive, Su Cheng hurriedly said:
"Not to mention staying with you, just when my eyes swept at you, I can't help but lift the corners of my mouth because of my happiness."
"Since Alisa, you don't have the mood or strength, then forget it."
"Let's go to bed."
"You can talk."
After saying that, Alisa squeezed into Su Cheng's arms and shrank her little head on Su Cheng's right shoulder.
I don’t know if it was Su Cheng’s illusion—Su Cheng just seemed to see a cunning look like a naughty child emerging in Alyssa’s eyes.
Alisa shrank her body into Su Cheng's arms, and Su Cheng subconsciously hugged Alisa's body tightly.
Holding the flexible body that was constantly conveying warmth in her arms, Su Cheng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Alisa is so close to Su Cheng, which makes Su Cheng even more uncomfortable...
Su Cheng couldn't help but guess—Would Alisa do it on purpose?
She said she forgave him, but in fact she didn't forgive him at all. She deliberately let him into bed, but did not let him do the kind of thing he had been looking forward to for a long time, torture him and punish him in this way...
Regardless of whether Alisa has this idea or not, tonight is destined to be a difficult night for Su Cheng...
...
...
The next morning, just as the sky was dawn, Deng Jiaer led the guards she brought to the road again and returned to the vanguard's camp.
When Deng Jiaer had just left the main force's camp, Su Cheng, who was in poor spirits due to poor sleep quality last night, commanded the main force to set off.
The destination of the main force was Fuka City, and went to take over the mission of the vanguard troops to siege Fuka City so that the vanguard troops could free up their hands to fight against reinforcements from the Holy Xiran Empire.
The distance between the two armies is not far away. Deng Jiaer set off in the morning and returned to the vanguard's camp at dusk.
After learning that Deng Jiaer was back, Samuel hurriedly led the few knights currently in the vanguard's army to welcome Deng Jiaer outside the camp.
After meeting Deng Jiaer, before Samuel had time to say hello to Deng Jiaer who had not seen him for a few days, Deng Jiaer took the lead and said bluntly:
"Mr. Samuel, please help me pass the orders--to prepare the troops to pull out the camp. We will leave here by noon tomorrow."
"Get out?" Samuel wondered, "Where are we going?"
