Chapter 3180 Crisis

Bai Ruozhu tried hard to calm down. She didn't want to wake the children.

She must have been thinking about it day and night, and she had been struggling with the eldest prince, and whether he was a time-traveled version of her childhood sweetheart Hong Shen from her previous life, so she had such a dream.

But no one noticed at this time, on the other carriage, Princess Yingtong's staring eyes suddenly closed.

If someone had seen the scene just now, they would definitely find it extremely strange and even terrifying. Her eyes were wide open but had no focus, and her whole person seemed to have lost her soul.

Chu Han woke up with a start. He didn't know what was wrong. He turned around and saw Yingtong sleeping beside him, and his expression calmed down again.

He gently held her hand, and the corners of his mouth were raised slightly. His expression was as if the years were peaceful and the world was stable.

——

Fires were blazing into the sky outside Feiyan City, and there were also fires everywhere in the city. There were constant sounds of fighting and crying, and the huge city seemed to have become a purgatory on earth.

"Sir, the Turkic cavalry are brave and good at fighting, but our losses are really severe."

"Sir, the city is in chaos, and the county magistrate in the city... was killed."

"General, we can't hold it anymore, why don't we evacuate first?"

"..."

Inside the city is purgatory on earth, and outside the city is the Shura battlefield.

When Jiang Yichun and the others arrived at Feiyan City, Turkic soldiers and horses were already attacking the city.

It turned out that they had sent a signal and tried to cooperate with the guards in the city to attack the Turks. Unexpectedly, the city was in chaos, and all the guards at the top of the city were killed, making it impossible to cooperate with them inside and outside.

The Turks who were attacking the city immediately turned their horses to attack them, but the city gate was never opened.

Fortunately, the soldiers who were traveling day and night rested for half a day, otherwise they would not be able to resist such a high-intensity attack.

But even so, the casualties were very heavy.

The Turks are good at riding and shooting. They are extremely fast and brave. Many of them are extremely powerful.

Someone rushed into the formation as fast as possible and quickly broke up the formation. Even the shield formation was broken up by them alive.

There were also Turks who rushed in to kill one wave, then quickly withdrew, and another group continued to kill in this way.

Originally, the infantry formed a shield array for defense and the archers fired arrows for attack. However, because they had to rush for rescue, the team did not bring many arrows. However, after a few rounds, the arrows were almost used.

At this time, someone suddenly shouted from behind, and a small group of Turks was seen walking around to the rear, rushing towards them on horseback, and shooting flaming rockets at them.

"Everyone, be careful!" Lang Jiang shouted.

Many people swung their swords to deflect the arrows, but the arrows contained flammable substances and continued to burn when they hit the ground. Many soldiers' boots were stained with sparks, and some even had their armor burned hot.

At this moment, Jiang Yichun raised his hand and pointed at the burning flames. The water vapor in the air condensed and poured out on the fire, and the rockets were extinguished one by one.

The general who led the team breathed a sigh of relief, but there was no trace of worry in his eyes.

"Master Jiang, the city has been controlled by the Turks. We can't enter the city. If this stalemate continues, our troops will be severely damaged." He said anxiously.

Jiang Yichun also knew that he could not resist forcefully, so he could only make a gesture and said: "Evacuate first and ask everyone to follow closely. The Turks are very powerful in pursuit."

Because the cavalry is fast, the Turks are particularly good at chasing the enemy. In addition, they are often scattered when retreating, and it is easy to be scattered.

"Yes, Mr. Jiang, please lead the team, and General Mo will take the rear." General Lang said.

"I'll take the rear and retreat to the place where we were stationed before." Jiang Yichun said firmly.

"This is too dangerous. The sword has no eyes. How will I explain it when I go back?" General Lang disagreed.

Jiang Yichun glared at him, "Listen to my arrangements now. I'm not a powerless civil servant, so don't waste your time."

His eyes were so intimidating. General Lang had been guarding the border for many years and had fought bloody battles on the battlefield, but he didn't expect that fear arose in that moment.

He was quite shocked, and he didn't dare to think any more, and hurriedly led the team to retreat.

Sure enough, as Jiang Yichun expected, even if the Turks were to pursue a small group, their purpose was to chase down the soldiers at the end of the group and kill them one by one.

This gave Jiang Yichun a chance to directly kill all the chasing team, which also boosted his morale a little.

Although the team was evacuated, the soldiers were no longer as dejected as before.

Finally evacuating to a safe place, Jiang Yichun first sent a letter to Feiyan City. Now that Feiyan City is like this, it would be too dangerous for Bai Ruozhu and his team to come and be surrounded by Turks.

They did not have enough troops to protect the civil servants and merchants in their ranks.

Instead of doing this, it is better for the team to rest in the nearest city in the Western Region and wait for the storm to subside before making plans.

——

Because the distance between the two sides was not far at the moment, and the carrier pigeons were specially trained, Bai Ruozhu received the letter in less than half a day.

Her face darkened as soon as she read the letter. She told Xiao Dengdeng to take care of her two younger brothers, and then got out of the car to find Gao Cuan and Chu Shuang.

"Father, mother, a letter from Ah Chun." She handed over the note.

When Gao Zhan and his wife read the letter, their expressions were not much better.

"No, I have to help Yichun. I was born in Danliang and grew up in Danliang. I can't watch the people being slaughtered." Gao Wei said, "What's more, once the Turks capture Feiyan City, they will definitely fight all the way. If we attack eastward, we don’t know how many cities will suffer, and we can’t hide in the Western Region forever.”

"I'm not worried about Ah Chun, so I want to discuss it with my parents." Bai Ruozhu looked at the two of them seriously, "I will leave the child to you to take care of, and I will bring people to support Ah Chun."

Gao Zhan became anxious upon hearing this, "No! You are the mother of the child. You take care of the child by yourself. I will help my son."

"That's my husband too." Bai Ruozhu said firmly, "Dad, there is no eye on the battlefield. You do have deep internal strength, but you cannot withstand thousands of troops. But if you want to protect the safety of the children, you are more suitable than me."

She continued: "Although my martial arts skills are average, I can protect myself with poison. Even if I use poison on the battlefield, I can defeat one against a hundred."

"I'm afraid you can't even protect yourself!" Gao Chan's beard stood up, "No, if something happens to you, Yichun is afraid..."

I’m afraid and don’t want to live anymore!

It was unlucky after all, he swallowed back the next words.

Bai Ruozhu looked at Chu Shuang for help, "Mom, please advise Dad."

"You guys go together. Zhong Gui and I can protect the child well. Don't forget that I am a mermaid saint. Even if I am not a good fighter, I still have the ability to save my life." Chu Shuang said.

"this……"

Bai Ruozhu hesitated, but Chu Shuang jumped out of the carriage, "Time waits for no one, let's discuss it together."

The convoy was stopped, and everyone avoided others and found a secluded place. Bai Ruozhu handed them the note.
