The middle-aged man's face was covered with dust, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he was carrying a big burden on his back. He was holding a child of seven or eight years old in his left hand. Seeing Shen Ning asking, he hurriedly said: "Brother, don't stop. Go ahead, it’s dangerous!”
"Danger?" Shen Ning was stunned.
The middle-aged man nodded heavily: "It's really too dangerous. Don't you know, brother? In front of us is Yuezhou City. We are all common people near Yuezhou City. We just received the news that the South Vietnamese army has arrived, so we hurriedly You are running for your life. If you are a moment and a half later, you will probably die under the swords and arrows of the South Vietnamese. Listen to me, don’t go any further. Run for your lives!"
After he finished speaking, he pulled the boy and walked quickly, as if there was a tiger chasing behind him.
A large group of people ran northward like a tide, and soon passed Shen Ning and Young Master Qianmian.
Mr. Qianmian's face turned pale: "I didn't expect the South Vietnamese army to arrive so quickly. They have already arrived in Yuezhou. Auntie, let's hurry back to Beijing to report to the emperor?"
Shen Ning shook her head: "There is no need to report the news. I believe this news will reach Kyoto in a short time. Is the South Vietnamese army really coming? Very good, we arrived in time. What I am most worried about is that we have not reached Yuezhou yet. , Yuezhou has been lost, mount up quickly, we must enter the city before dark. "
She got on her horse, whipped the horse very fast, and galloped towards Yuezhou City.
Mr. Qianmian simply couldn't understand what was going on in her mind. The South Vietnamese army was about to attack Yuezhou City. Instead of turning around and fleeing for her life, she rushed into the city. Wasn't this a suicide
In his heart, he wanted to turn around and run away, but he unknowingly chased after Shen Ning's horse. Even he himself didn't know if he had gone crazy with that girl.
The two of them were galloping along and met several waves of fleeing people. Every time they saw these people, Qianmian Gongzi felt discouraged, but when he saw Shen Ning, he had a determined look on his face and headed towards Yuezhou without any hesitation. OK.
"That's all, I risked my life to accompany you. In order to cure my strange disease, I ended up with this girl!"
Young Master Qianmian was furious, and he also beat the horse and ran wildly.
Finally, the two of them arrived at Yuezhou City before dark.
At this time, the South Vietnamese army had not been seen outside the city, and Prince Qianmian's heart dropped slightly in his throat.
Shen Ning raised her head and looked up the city. She saw that the flag of the Western Chu State was still hanging on the city. The walls were filled with defenders, all with their bows and arrows bent, on full alert.
"Hey, the two people below the city, the city gate has been closed now, no one is allowed to enter the city, the South Vietnamese army will be here soon, you should run for your lives quickly!"
The defenders on the city wall saw Shen Ning and Young Master Qianmian. Seeing that the two were wearing the clothes of the people of Western Chu, they thought they were nearby refugees who wanted to take refuge in the city, so they shouted at them with a loud voice.
Shen Ning took out a token from her arms and raised her voice to the city: "According to the emperor's decree, come to Yuezhou to help defend the city!"
After hearing this, the defenders on the city couldn't help but look at each other.
There are only 5,000 defenders in Yuezhou City, but the South Vietnamese army has sent 100,000 troops this time. If the South Vietnamese army really comes to the city, they may not be able to hold on for even one day and the city will be breached.
