Chapter 186 The army presses the territory
Chu Moyuan carried Xie Youzhi and hurried back to the palace. Before the guards at the gate of Luo Fanchen could see who it was, Chu Moyuan flashed by like the wind.
The prince asked the guards in confusion, "Who was that just now?"
Another cold-faced guard replied, "Your Majesty!"
"Go in and take a look, what if it's not you?"
"No need to go in. If it weren't for the prince, the secret guards would have come out to stop you."
That makes sense.
As soon as Chu Moyuan's body touched the bed, Xia Youan asked hurriedly, "Why are you here so late?"
It was already past the time Chu Moyuan had agreed to return, but Xia Youan still hadn't seen Chu Moyuan come back, and he was so anxious that he almost cried.
Chu Linzhou and Zhang Peng waited with Xia Youan. They paced back and forth in the warehouse, both feeling a little anxious.
Seeing Chu Moyuan appear, they quickly surrounded him.
Chu Moyuan handed Xie Youzhi to Zhang Peng's arms, said with bloodshot eyes, "Save him!", then slipped away.
At the same time as the space-time channel opened, Chu Moyuan's cell phone notification sounded.
I only saw the message sent by Shan Ronghao: The armies of the Three Kingdoms are approaching, the enemy has sneaked into the city, and Beichuan is in danger.
Shan Ronghao had already edited the message and clicked send. As long as the space-time channel was opened, the message could be sent successfully.
Chu Moyuan summoned the secret guards and quickly asked them about the situation.
"What's the situation in the city?"
The secret guard didn't dare delay and immediately replied, "The trade center is under attack by an enemy force of about a thousand men. Lord Du and his men are still able to resist. The coal mines are probably no longer safe. Many parts of the city have been harassed and damaged. The guards from the palace have been sent out, but they are all pinned down and unable to provide assistance. General Shan's troops cannot move. If they do, the enemy will attack and the city will be lost."
"How many enemy troops are there?"
"I'm not sure. The three nations have a combined army of at least 300,000, three times ours. We don't know if they have any reserve forces."
"Do you know how much explosives are left in the barracks?"
"General Shan threw explosives at the beginning, but they were all buried in the snow and couldn't ignite. The enemy just saw this opportunity. They've sent for reinforcements, but it will take more than a month for the nearest garrison to arrive."
"Arrange a few people who are good at Qinggong to come and see this king immediately."
After saying that, Chu Moyuan immediately bent over his desk and started writing. Soon, more than a dozen secret guards with excellent lightness skills arrived.
"What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
"Take this letter from the king and go to the neighboring small countries to borrow troops!"
The reason why the Three Kingdoms chose to go to war at this time was simply because they could no longer survive and wanted to grab some supplies to take back. Currently, Pingyang County had the most abundant supplies in the surrounding area.
In the letter, Chu Moyuan promised that as long as they were willing to lend troops and help Beichuan overcome this difficulty, he would provide their army with three months of food and various heating supplies, and would sell supplies to them at extremely low prices in the next ten years.
After giving the order, Chu Moyuan brought the few remaining secret guards of the palace to the trade center and joined the fight.
Du Zuo and Du You were injured. They had not slept all night and were busy all morning. They had planned to have a good sleep in the afternoon, but they were surrounded by the enemy before they had slept for long.
After a night of fighting, even the robots couldn't take it anymore. Du Zuo and Du You were already exhausted. The enemy seemed endless, yet our forces were constantly decreasing.
"Du You, something is wrong here. Protect the people and evacuate! We can't defend this place anymore!" Chu Moyuan said to Du You when he had the chance.
Du Zuo heard this. After fighting for so long and with so many brothers killed, how could he just give up? "Master, we can't retreat. If we retreat now, those brothers will have died in vain. Even if we burn it down, we can't let these bastards get away with it."
"Listen up!" Chu Moyuan shouted angrily.
"Retreat!" Du You shouted loudly, and the guards immediately escorted the staff and merchants to retreat while fighting.
After the evacuation, Du Zuo asked Chu Moyuan unhappily, "Why did you evacuate? We can still continue to protect it."
Du You slapped Du Zuo's head hard, "Master, have you been too pampered by me? How dare you question my decision?"
Chu Moyuan winked at Du You and said, "Go and keep an eye on them and see where they're transporting them from."
Du You reacted immediately and took Mingye to follow them.
Although Du Zuo was a little slow to react, he understood Chu Moyuan's intention and said to Chu Moyuan embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Master, I shouldn't have questioned you."
"fine!"
Chu Moyuan leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and rested, thinking about how to break the deadlock next.
The three people on Xia Youan's side were really shocked when they saw the dying Xie Youzhi in Zhang Peng's arms. Xia Youan quickly asked his father to contact Lin Qingfeng.
Xia Youan was afraid that Chu Moyuan would come back at any time, so he didn't dare leave. Zhang Peng carried Xie Youzhi into the car, and Chu Linzhou followed, and they immediately rushed to the hospital.
I ran through several red lights along the way.
Xia Youan felt very upset when he saw the blood dripping on the bed. Xie Youzhi had been frozen stiff and his body was no longer bleeding. The blood could only have come from Chu Moyuan.
"What happened? Why are you all injured?"
Xia Youan sat helplessly on the bed, crying, murmuring non-stop, "Chu Moyuan, you must be fine. I won't let anything happen to you. You must come back alive. Please!"
When the others heard Xia Ronghai say that Xie Youzhi was in critical condition and had been sent to the hospital, they all ran away in panic. No one knew that Xia Youan was still staying in the warehouse.
After the doctor's rescue, his life was saved, but we don't know when he will wake up, and we can't guarantee whether he will have any sequelae after waking up.
He had arrow wounds on his body, penetrating wounds on his feet, large areas of frostbite, and his body had been hypothermic for too long, but he was still alive. Even the doctors thought it was a miracle.
Lin Qingfeng found Xia Ronghai and said, "Old Xia, tell me the truth. What's going on? Why do you keep getting into trouble? Either your identity is unknown, or it could be related to a criminal case. We've been friends for many years. You won't harm me, will you?"
Xia Ronghai was silent for a while, but still couldn't tell the truth.
He could only evade the question awkwardly, "I'm sorry, Qingfeng, I can't tell you the truth, but I promise there's no criminal case. Even if the police come to investigate, they won't find anything. That's all I can tell you. Sorry to bother you!"
Seeing Xia Ronghai's embarrassed expression, Lin Qingfeng didn't dare to continue asking. He could only bet that Xia Ronghai would not harm him.
"Oh, forget it! I won't ask anymore. As long as you are sure that you won't get involved in anything bad, that's fine!" Lin Qingfeng compromised.
......
After a period of waiting, Du You and Ming Ye discovered that the enemy was pulling supplies to a dense forest outside the north city gate. The two looked at each other, both confused.
He asked how to grab supplies, and why the army did not meet at the north gate, but chose to clamor at the west gate.
