Chapter 137 Catch that woman!
No one could have imagined that this massive tour would end in such an embarrassing and tragic way.
No, it’s not over.
After the Turks burned the camp, they began to chase and massacre. Because they were attacked by a surprise attack, the people who traveled this time did not even have time to assemble into a team. Everyone fled from the camp in panic. , running all the way south.
This night, even many years later, is the most terrifying night in Shang Ruyi's memory and the night he least dares to recall.
Her ears were filled with all kinds of screams, exclamations, complaints, and desperate wails. These sounds even made her suffocate more than the blood spilled on her body before the people around her fell to the ground after being hit by arrows. During this period, the troops of the Daye Dynasty Several resistances were assembled, but because it was too dark, the opponent's attack was too fierce, and the crowds of people fleeing were chaotic, it was almost impossible to stop the opponent's attack.
Escape, they can only escape!
They couldn't see the road ahead, but they could feel the butcher's knife approaching behind them step by step with the smell of blood. All of them became panicked prey, even if the Turks hadn't rushed up yet, they had already Countless people were trampled to death.
Bodies and blood on the road stretch for miles.
And finally when the morning light showed, they looked up and saw the tall black shadow on the horizon ahead. It was the northernmost point of the Daye Dynasty, the last line of defense against the nomadic cavalry - Yanmen County!
The people running in front cheered: "Here we are, we have arrived at Yanmen City!"
"Run quickly!"
"You can survive by entering the city, hurry!"
A young man riding a horse in front couldn’t help but wave He danced his arms and shouted: "Run quickly, let's—"
Before he finished speaking, an arrow passed through his throat with a whoosh. Shang Ruyi opened his eyes wide and watched helplessly. The young man's body was stiff and he only shook twice before falling off the horse.
"Ah——"
Everyone around them screamed in fright.
Shang Ruyi's face turned pale, and he looked back in panic. Behind them, he saw a group of Turkic cavalry galloping in pursuit of them. This small group of people refused to let go, and some of them ran the fastest. Waving a machete in his hand, he charged directly at He went into the fleeing crowd and hacked them. Amidst the screams, several people fell off their horses and were trampled into a pool of flesh and blood by the rolling horse hooves. The cavalry running behind held bows and arrows and kept firing arrows at them. Shang Ruyi One after another, people around him were shot and killed.
At this moment, they were like prey being hunted.
Death is so close!
The cold sweat had completely soaked his close-fitting clothes. Out of instinct, Shang Ruyi hurriedly laid his body on the horse's back and clamped the horse's belly tightly. The horse galloped hard and saw it getting closer and closer to the gate of Yanmen City. .
The arrows shot from behind flew past her body one by one. Even if they did not hit her, the strong killing intent made her tremble.
Just when Shang Ruyi looked back again, she suddenly saw a bow and a quiver behind the saddle!
Last night was too chaotic. Mu Xian randomly brought a horse, and she also rode on it randomly. Only then did she realize that the horse was used for patrolling, and bows and arrows were their regular weapons for patrolling.
Shang Ruyi felt as if he had found a treasure, and hurriedly picked up the bow and pulled out an arrow from the quiver.
And just behind her, the Turkic soldier who was pursuing the most closely saw her, a woman, actually picking up a bow and arrow, and burst into laughter. While laughing, he waved the scimitar in his hand and rushed towards Shang Ruyi on his horse. He smiled ferociously and said: "I want to see what kind of book you have-"
Before he finished speaking, a cold light flashed in front of his eyes.
The Turkic soldier only felt a heat in his eye sockets. Before he could react, his whole head was knocked back by a powerful force. Then severe pain spread from his eye sockets to his whole body. He screamed from He fell off his horse. The people around were shocked when they saw this scene.
Shang Ruyi held the bow in one hand, and still maintained the arrow-shooting posture with the other hand. His fingertips began to swell and become numb again.
Fortunately, fortunately...
At this moment, she just wanted to go back a few months ago to thank Yu Wenye who "used" her in the Taiyuan military camp. If it weren't for his provocation, she would have competed with Huang Gongyi After that scene, I gradually became interested in it. After that, when I had nothing to do, I would shoot arrows at home for fun. There was no chance of opening a way out with one arrow right now!
However, her arrow immediately attracted the attention of the Turkic soldiers behind.
These people chased them all night and encountered little strong resistance. However, they did not expect that the delicate-looking woman in front of them actually shot the captain of their team with one arrow. Kill!
These Turkic soldiers immediately became furious, abandoning the fleeing people around them, and chased Shang Ruyi.
"Don't run!"
"I have to chop you into pieces today!"
Shang Ruyi was dumbfounded.
At this moment, she wished she could go back to just now and slap herself hard for not knowing what the world was up to and taking out a weapon.
Just follow the large army and run away. Now, although you have shot and killed a Turkic soldier, you have attracted the attention of other Turkic soldiers to yourself. Isn't this looking for death!
She didn't even have time to cry, but she didn't have time to think too much. Seeing these people riding their horses hard to surround her, she immediately drew an arrow with her backhand, lying on the horse's back and drawing the strong bow horizontally, although her fingers were already too nervous. She was trembling, but the Turkic soldiers behind her were chasing her so closely that she didn't even have time to take aim. She fired an arrow and immediately hit the chest of the Turkic soldier who was following her closely.
"Ah——!"
There was another scream, and the man rolled off the horse. The few people behind him rushed too fast and had no time to avoid him, and the horse's hooves trampled him all at once. The tall body stepped on him, causing him to howl miserably, and the horses were tripped to the ground one after another, falling all of a sudden, stopping the cavalry behind him.
Shang Ruyi was overjoyed, turned around quickly, grabbed the reins, and galloped forward with all his strength.
At this time, under the tall city gate, the fleeing people were already like sheep being chased by wild wolves, desperately trying to get into the city gate. Shang Ruyi saw at a glance that the forbidden troops led by Wang Shaoji The guards just escorted someone into Yanmen City.
Is that... His Majesty the Emperor?
So he is safe now?
At this moment, a strange thought surged in Shang Ruyi's heart. It seemed a little regretful, but also a little lucky. Especially at the moment when the chaotic crowd entered the city gate, there seemed to be another familiar sound. The eyes looking back at her among millions of people made her even more confused.
But at this time, it’s too late to worry about your own mood!
Although most of the people have entered Yanmen City, they have not yet entered. Moreover, the two arrows just now have completely angered the Turkic soldiers behind them. At this time, they gave up chasing other tourists. The fleeing people dispersed, and all of them rushed towards Shang Ruyi like wolves smelling the smell of blood.
In the rolling crowds, the shouts of the Turkic soldiers shook the surrounding areas——
“Catch that woman!”
