Seeing that his friend’s gloomy mood had finally gone, Fu Chen’an heaved a sigh of relief.

During war, the most important things besides supplies and armament were morale and unity. Without high morale, no matter how strong the army was, it would be easily defeated.

Now that he no longer worried about Xiao Wei’s mental condition, he closed his eyes and went to sleep.

He had already eaten a bowl of noodles in the shared manor. Added to the porridge, he was 70% full. For the rest of the night, he had a good sleep.

Early the next morning, Fu Chen’an woke up before dawn, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Seeing that Xiao Wei was still sleeping soundly, he entered the shared manor and washed up simply. Besides washing his face, he also washed his hands and brushed his teeth.

Smelling his sour stench, he undressed and took a simple shower. He scrubbed his body using a body scrubber and a little bit of body soap. He didn’t dare to stay for too long inside and finished his shower in five minutes.

When he was done, he changed his underwear before he put on his soft golden armor, his clothes, and finally his armor. Before he left the shared manor, he poured a cup of soymilk made by his wife and finished it in several gulps.

Everything stored in this place stayed fresh. So even if the soymilk was placed in the kitchen for days, it wouldn’t spoil.

Not long after he appeared inside his tent, Xiao Wei stirred from his sleep and woke up groggily. Seeing his friend already fully clothed, he quickly sat up and asked hoarsely, "Chen’an, what time is it?"

Fu Chen’an looked at the dim sky and replied, "It’s two quarters of yinshi."

After he said this, he thought about the time system his wife had taught him before. In the modern time system, two quarters of yinshi was equal to 4 o’clock in the morning.

He personally thought that it was easier to use his wife’s time system, but he was used to this era’s time system. So, he had no problem using both.

When Xiao Wei heard this, he quickly tidied up the simple bed and put on his armor.

After they finished packing up, they dismantled the simple, small tent and put it into a sack. Then, they carried the sack to the logistics team so they could load it into the cart.

For the soldiers’ personal belongings, they had to carry them themselves. To avoid tiring themselves, the soldiers only brought important things such as medicine, some dried rations, and waterskins for emergencies.

As for clothes, they didn’t bother to bring any since they wouldn’t have time to take a shower and change into clean clothes during wartime.

Because of this, Fu Chen’an, who only had two cloth bags and a waterskin tied on his waist, didn’t stand out from the crowd at all.

Most of them thought that those bags contained medicine and some dried food. Only those who had more peculiar habits brought a change of clothes.

Before they departed, the soldiers had another warm meal. For breakfast, the cooks prepared coarse-grain porridge mixed with salted vegetables and some dried meat. Since there was salt in the porridge, it tasted better than plain porridge.

While everyone was having their breakfast, a soldier rushed over and knelt on one knee. "Reporting to the General, two people riding warhorses are spotted coming in our direction."

The moment he heard this, Lu Qianxuan stood up and said, "Take me over to see."

The soldier bowed and quickly led him to the higher ground. They didn’t have binoculars, so they could only rely on their good eyesight.

Lu Qianxuan narrowed his eyes when he saw the incoming people. The moment his gaze landed on the petite figure riding the black horse, surprise flashed in his eyes.

Without a word, he leaped from the higher ground and slid down the slope.

At the same time, Xue Ya’er and Ah Jun saw someone sliding down the slope. At first, they thought that they were ambushed. But when they saw that person’s armor, both of them slowed down their horses.

When they were a few meters from that person, Xue Ya’er leaped from the horseback in a smooth motion. Before she even touched the ground, a pair of strong arms circled around her waist and brought her to a broad chest.

Despite her husband’s sour stench, Xue Ya’er took a deep breath, and her anxious heart finally settled down. Reaching out, she hugged his waist, and after a while, she said, "Husband, I can’t breathe."

Hearing this, Lu Qianxuan quickly let her go. His armor was made of iron, and by hugging his wife so tightly, he might hurt her. He checked her from head to toe while asking, "Wife, did I hurt you?"

Xue Ya’er shook her head and said, "I’m fine."

After making sure that his wife was unharmed, Lu Qianxuan finally asked, "Wife, why are you here?"

"I came to deliver the weapons given by the Lei family."

The moment he heard this, Lu Qianxuan’s eyes lit up, and he looked at their backs. When he saw nothing, he asked doubtfully, "Wife, how many people did you bring with you? Where are they?"

"I only brought Ah Jun with me."

"Then, the weapons..."

Seeing her husband’s confusion, Xue Ya’er smiled and said, "Let’s find a safe place first."

Knowing that it wasn’t safe here, Lu Qianxuan held back his questions and led them back to the camp.

Since the army didn’t allow women to enter, no matter what their identity was, Xue Ya’er had already disguised herself as a young man. So, when they entered the General’s camp, the soldiers only gave them curious gazes, but no one suspected her gender.

Inside the tent, Lu Qianxuan poured a cup of water for his wife first after she took a seat.

Xue Ya’er finished the water before she said, "Husband, the weapons are with me." After she said this, she opened her palm, and the next second, a bamboo tube appeared out of thin air.

Lu Qianxuan was stunned when he saw this. After a moment of silence, he finally asked, "Wife, how did you..."
