Waiting until dawn, He Chunhua gave the order to the army:
"Break camp and hit the road!"
Without rest, the food transport team must rush to the front line as soon as possible.
The offensive and defensive battle last night was finally won. The morale of the team has increased, and they are not reluctant to set off immediately. Xinhuang Town is too poor, and ordinary soldiers cannot leave the camp in compliance with military orders. There is not much difference between staying here and the countryside.
However, He Lingchuan asked for leave and temporarily left the team. He led a dozen of his men all the way west and traveled dozens of miles before they found the place where they had fought so hard and buried Maotao alive.
"When the Ghost Festival comes, no matter where I am, I will burn money and paper figures for you." He Lingchuan said to the newly erected tombstone, "I will ask the master to make you some paper girls with long legs and thin waists.
I’m sure all of them will be your favorite style.”
This was Maotao's wish during his lifetime, and it can also come true after his death.

The rest of the journey for the grain transport team was uneventful.
When passing through a steep mountain pass, He Chunhua sent out spies in advance, and the team also raised their alert levels. However, until everyone passed smoothly, nothing happened.
He Chunhua had already concluded that Hong Chenglue had suffered a serious loss of vitality and would not take action again. He finally felt relieved after going through the natural dangers of this journey.
It's all plain behind.
Taking stock of the battles in the past two days, he and Hong Chenglue should have won and lost each other. However, Hong Chenglue originally had more than 600 men, but now he only had more than 200, a loss of more than half. In total, Hong Chenglue suffered a greater loss.
It was last night's mutual attack that would determine the outcome, otherwise the food transport team would not be able to pass through the critical hurdle so easily today.
The march on the plains was fast. Two days later, the grain transport team finally arrived at the northern front line!
Zhao Pan, the general guarding the border, got the news and was waiting by the roadside.
He Lingchuan took a look and saw that Wuyangyang were all soldiers, and the welcome ceremony was quite grand.
Chapter completed!
