Chapter 0247 - Escort (3)

Early the next morning, Fang Jue let the soldiers have breakfast, prepared some cooked food in advance and began to continue on his way.

The people in the carriage were not as quiet as Fang Jue imagined, and they were a little unreal.

Out of reassurance, Fang Jue approached the carriage with some doubts, and under the somewhat hostile gaze of several Turks, Fang Jue still opened the curtain of the carriage.

The Turkic princess was sitting in the carriage at the moment, with her head propped up in one hand, half-lying in an extremely charming posture.

"What, you peeked at people and just walked away?"

Seeing that Fang Jue was a little apologetic, the Turkic princess loosened the curtain in her hand and was about to leave.

Fang Jue knew that he had been fooled again, thinking that the carriage was a little strange just now, and it was the Turkic princess who did it on purpose.

"If you leave, when I return to China, I will write a letter to your Emperor of the Celestial Empire, and you will be light with me on the way to escort, what do you think will be the consequences?"

The Turkic princess couldn't do it, so she could only threaten Fang Jue in this way. She said this for only one purpose, and that was to make Fang Jue bow to her.

"Whatever you want."

Fang Jue only said three words, and then continued to urge the soldiers to hurry up, before today, they must pass the endless mountain ahead.

Although Fang Jue was not afraid that those bandits on the mountain would come to block his way, he was worried that the Turkic princess who had not cooperated well all along.

The march is fast, and the surface is calm between the mountains, but it always feels a little cold.

Xiao Yue used to be a Jianghu person, and his vigilance was also very strong, he reminded Fang Jue that ahead was Yinhu Mountain, and Yinhu Mountain was a well-known bandit den. In fact, it is not far from Chang'an, but it can still stand for so many years without being exterminated by the government, and it is also a force that cannot be underestimated.

No one knows how many people there are on the mountain, but there is a result, the nearby government has sent more than 2,000 people to attack Yinhu Mountain, but they are all defeated.

The Turkic princess has been noisy, she no longer has the image of a Turkic princess, she has long been embarrassed in front of Fang Jue, and she doesn't care about her image. She just wanted to toss Fang Jue, she was unhappy in her heart, and she wouldn't let Fang Jue feel better. This stop-and-go slowed down naturally.

Today's itinerary still didn't meet Fang Jue's budget, but what made Fang Jue feel a little relieved was that when he passed through the foot of Yinhu Mountain, there were no bandits and robbers, and he didn't even see a single figure.

Since you can't get out, you can only camp on the spot. The night was deep and the people who took turns to rest slept soundly, and although they didn't travel much today, they were still a little tired from the people in the carriage.

Xiao Yue felt a little strange from passing by Silver Tiger Mountain, and his intuition told him that if he hadn't stepped out of Silver Tiger Mountain's sphere of influence, he couldn't take it lightly.

"You're worried about a bird, there are so many of us, the bandits are naturally scared to pee, and they dare to provoke them, it's okay if they don't come, if they come, let them see my overlord's hammer."

Fan Ba listened to Xiao Yue's worries, and he made some fun of Xiao Yue's timidity.

Fang Jue just watched the two of them fight with each other, he still had to recuperate his spirits, and he didn't know how the Turkic princess who was waiting for him would toss tomorrow.

In the middle of the night, when everyone was most asleep, the sound of birds flying over the trees came.

A very ordinary thing, Xiao Yue suddenly sat up nervously. Birds generally do not fly around at night, and will have to flee for their lives unless they are in danger.

Xiao Yue looked at Fang Jue's sleeping appearance, this was just his own guess, so he didn't wake up Fang Jue, and there were more than 200 people patrolling the periphery, but there was no need to worry about safety.

But things were really as Xiao Yue expected, before Xiao Yue could lie down and continue to rest, a gust of wind came from above.

Xiao Yue fixed his eyes and saw that this was unbelievable, countless arrows fell from the sky.

"Young master, be careful."

Xiao Yue hurriedly grabbed a shield and blocked it on the top of Fang Jue's simple tent.

For a while, arrows rained down, and Fang Jue was suddenly awakened.

There was a sound of metal colliding in the camp, and Fan Ba was also carrying a sledgehammer, and he was also a little confused by the sudden situation.

But fortunately, the soldiers did not suffer much losses, only a dozen of the soldiers on patrol died, while the sleeping soldiers did not suffer casualties, only a few were slightly wounded.

The soldiers were awakened, under Fang Jue's order, picked up the shield placed on the improvised tent and began to protect, the soldiers looked at the dense arrows on the ground, they felt that they had escaped death, thanks to this shield, and the person who taught them to do this was naturally Fang Jue, if it wasn't for Fang Jue's regulations that they had to do this, they were also worried that when they slept at night, the shield would fall down and hurt themselves.

The soldiers who escaped death did not have time to thank their generals for their foresight, so they all picked up shields and weapons and began to besiege the city in a formation.

The carriage of the Turkic princess is naturally made of special materials, the roof is made of thick iron, and the beams and pillars of the carriage are also made of metal, if it is not for some soft fancy embellishments, this is really a moving cage.

It's just that a few of the few retinues of the poor Turkic princess died and only three people remained, and one was seriously injured.

After the flying arrows ended, Fang Jue also gathered the soldiers, and soon there was a shout from the east.

"Kill, kill them all, don't keep any of them."

When these people rushed to Fang Jue's formation, they all stopped, how could this be possible, it was as if the cottage had poured all the arrows just now, but it didn't cause much damage to the enemy.

However, under the orders of the leader, these people still rushed forward without hesitation, but what awaited them was an organized and disciplined slaughter.

After all, they are bandits who have not undergone formal training, and they lost part of their people in the first wave.

Seeing that the brothers in their cottage were killed by the official army, they became more ferocious and still rushed forward without hesitation.

Wave after wave of impact collisions, Fang Jue's camp began to be a little tight, although these people are the forbidden army of the Celestial Empire, they can have no main generals before, the battle array is a little deserted, a few days ago, they were temporarily trained under the leadership of Fan Ba for two days, but this combat effectiveness is still not as good as before.

Among Fang Jue's thousands, there were also two hundred light crossbowmen, under the cover of the shield soldiers in front, they quickly pulled the trigger, and shot arrows at the enemy one after another, the sky was too dark, the fire was weak, they didn't know if they were shot, and when they heard the other party's wail, they were sure that the other party was damaged.

In this way, you rushed to me, and the process of you retreating from my attack lasted for a long time, and there were casualties on both sides, but fortunately, Fang Jue and Fan Ba commanded properly, and the casualties were not large.

Fang Jue deliberately sent people to protect the Turkic princess, which he felt was extremely absurd, the Turks were also enemies of the Celestial Empire, but he still had to protect her safety.

However, when the Turkic princess saw the corpses of her attendants lying on the ground, and the dense arrows on the roof of the carriage, she didn't trouble Fang Jue anymore, because she didn't know who was against Fang Jue, she sat quietly in the car, waiting for the end of the battle.
