Fighting for Love Episode 5 Recap

Chang Yuqing escaped from Silver Fortress City and immediately ordered his subordinates to attack the city overnight. According to the reconnaissance conducted in the past few days, the military strength of Silver Fortress City was very weak and no match for Northern Desert at all. The night before, Tang Shaoyi had already guessed that Chang Yuqing would come to attack the city, but he did not expect the enemy's power to be so strong.
In just a few minutes, more than half of the soldiers in the army were killed or injured. With a serious shortage of manpower, he sent someone to the prison to summon prisoners. If they were willing to go to the battlefield and fight the enemy, their previous crimes would all be nullified. A Mai was originally from Southern Xia, and what's more, someone was now telling her that she could escape from prison.
Naturally, she actively signed up to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy. Under A Mai's influence, many prisoners in the jail enthusiastically signed up. With the enemy at the city gates, even criminals were determined to fight the enemy on the battlefield. The jailers were also moved and drew their swords, following closely behind. The battlefield was exceptionally brutal. Seeing that manpower and weapons couldn't keep up, A Mai quickly reported to the general Tang Shaoyi.
However, Tang Shaoyi vowed not to surrender even unto death. According to past practice, once the city was lost, all the people in the city would be in mortal danger. Chang Yuqing saw that the general defending the city was so brave, and while moved, he also swore that he would never harm the common people within the city. The city gate had been breached, and many people were fleeing for their lives.
While escaping, A Mai encountered a jailer who was about to die. This person was thinking about his lonely daughter at home and entrusted A Mai to help him rescue his daughter before he died. Taking the token given by the jailer, A Mai quickly rushed to that place to rescue the child. In the prison, Tang Shaoyi pointed his sword at Li Erniu.
At this moment, Li Erniu saw the tragic scene brought by the Northern Desert invasion and completely burned the meticulously designed drawings in his hand. He did not want such highly offensive weapons to fall into the hands of the invaders. Tang Shaoyi admired Li Erniu's enlightenment. Swords do not kill righteous people. Tang Shaoyi took Li Erniu and broke through. In the process of escaping from Silver Fortress City, Li Erniu witnessed even more tragedies.
War brings not only broken families and death, but also desolation everywhere. A Mai also saw these things. She was alone. If she could protect the safety of the common people in one area, it would be a blessing. After a narrow escape from death, A Mai finally found the jailer's daughter. Fortunately, she arrived in time, otherwise the child would have been violated by the Northern Desert officers and soldiers. This girl was named Xu Xiuer.
Hearing the bad news about her father, she pulled out a dagger and did not want to live alone, but A Mai quickly stopped her, urging her to think carefully about her father and to live bravely. A Mai took Xu Xiuer out of the city. On the way, they encountered a group of invaders surrounding Tang Shaoyi and Li Erniu. Li Erniu had been locked up in the same prison as A Mai before, so they were naturally familiar.
A Mai pushed a large cart to scatter the group of people, and then Li Erniu and Tang Shaoyi followed A Mai as they fled for their lives. When Li Erniu saw Xu Xiuer, he learned of the jailer's fate and was furious at Chang Yuqing. Chang Yuqing had often harassed them and even massacred their village multiple times for their family's arrow book.
His father had risked his life to stuff the arrow book to Li Erniu, urging him to keep it safe. The four of them brainstormed a way to escape. A Mai told them to steal the clothes of Northern Desert soldiers and sneak out after disguising themselves. They had the clothes, but they still needed a token to leave the city. A Mai quickly looked for Ah Si.
Ah Si was skilled at making various fakes, but when he heard A Mai ask him to forge Chang Yuqing's token, he was still a bit worried. A Mai had seen Chang Yuqing, so she asked Ah Si to make the armor and token based on her description. Meanwhile, Chang Yuqing was not idle either. He ordered portraits of A Mai and the other three to be drawn and distributed to the people throughout the city, and issued a notice stating that if these four people were not found in one day, a certain percentage of the people would be killed, and the entire city would be massacred four days later.
