Fighting for Love Episode 18 Recap
> Fighting for Love Recap
Chang Yuqing heard that his good brother Cui Yan had also fallen from the bridge, so he quickly rode a fast horse to the vicinity of the cliff. Liu San, a follower by his side, took advantage of his distraction and pushed him off the cliff. Chang Yuqing turned around at the last moment and realized that the attendant who attacked him had previously been a subordinate of Chen Qi, and must have been bribed by Chen Qi.
Unfortunately, he discovered it too late. After falling from the cliff, Chang Yuqing's whereabouts were unknown. The injured Cui Yan heard that his older brother had met with misfortune, and the more he thought about it, the more something felt wrong, so he quietly ordered his confidant to take a small team of soldiers to search for Chang Yuqing. After an unknown period of time, A Mai woke up and saw a soldier not far away.
She thought she had encountered one of her own people. When she got closer, she was shocked to find it was Chang Yuqing. Seeing that Chang Yuqing was still alive, A Mai pulled him to a drier patch of beach. The cold wind picked up at night, and A Mai lit a bonfire.
Her wound was inflamed, and her shoulder was burning and uncomfortable, so A Mai took off one sleeve and repeatedly poured spring water on the wound, biting her teeth in pain. Chang Yuqing heard the movement and raised his head with difficulty, just in time to see A Mai wiping her wound with a bare arm. Her back was slender and weak. Chang Yuqing found it quite funny.
Normally, A Mai fought on the battlefield, charging forward fearlessly in battle, even more imposing than a man. Who knew she was still a novice? But since A Mai had saved him, Chang Yuqing didn't want to be enemies with A Mai. He asked A Mai what her motive was for saving him.
A Mai admitted that she wanted Chang Yuqing to lead her out of the valley, because there were Northern Desert troops everywhere, and she still needed to find her father's killer. The two made do in the mountain stream for a night. When dawn broke the next day, they encountered Northern Desert troops who had come to search. Chang Yuqing told A Mai to run in a certain direction while he went to divert those Northern Desert troops.
Tang Shaoyi and Zhang Erdan followed the marks A Mai left and tracked them all the way to a farmer's house below the cliff. At that time, the farmer was a bit simple-minded and gave A Mai some women's clothes. After A Mai changed, she happened to meet Tang Shaoyi.
Tang Shaoyi admitted that he had suspected she was a woman several days ago, as she didn't let the military doctor apply medicine when injured, and didn't join others when using the latrine or bathing. These were all evidence. Now that he knew, he would continue to help hide this secret. Having sworn brotherhood, they would be brothers for life. A Mai was very moved by Tang Shaoyi's words.
A Mai returned to the military camp with Zhang Erdan and Tang Shaoyi. On the way, she encountered her battalion brothers still waiting in the mountain hollow. Several of them were injured. The squad leader said that Shang Yizhi had ordered them to lure the Northern Desert army away. A Mai was indignant, saying that they were again being made into sheep waiting to be eaten by the Northern Desert army.
A Mai immediately led the Seventh Battalion back to the main headquarters and angrily questioned Shang Yizhi why he treated the lives of the soldiers like grass. The military advisor walked into the tent and said it was his idea. To divert the enemy, they naturally had to sacrifice some to protect the main force. He then asked A Mai what she would do if it were her.
Since she knew sheep couldn't defeat wolves, shouldn't they sacrifice a small number of sheep to preserve their strength? A Mai's eyes welled up with tears, and she glared at the military advisor, solemnly replying that if it were her, she would lead the small number of sheep to fight the wolves to the end. How could she know for sure they would be eaten by the wolves without trying?
A Mai's words deeply shocked the soldiers present and also moved Shang Yizhi. Shang Yizhi specially rewarded the Seventh Battalion with a rich meal and promoted A Mai to the position of battalion commander.
