"Hmm. General Yan, I still have a puzzle as to why this Turkic man would suddenly attack Yanmen. Taking the tea handed by others, Su Wan took a sip and raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Because of Marquis Li, the Turks have been falling apart for many years, and their internal worries have not been resolved, so they naturally have no time to take care of the outside world, and later His Royal Highness King Ding was stationed here, so they naturally did not dare to attack rashly. However, this year, there was a sudden heavy snowfall, and after a lot of cattle and sheep froze to death without food, they set their sights on Yanmen and even the later states under the outbreak of the epidemic. Sighing slowly, Yan Chen slapped his palm on the case and clenched his fist angrily, "The state is rich, they coveted it earlier." Now is a good time for them to do it. ”

After Yan Chen said this, Su Wan also understood. What are the Turkic intentions. In the face of years of insect plagues and snow plagues on the grasslands, nothing is more important than finding a rich state capital and living a stable life. That's why they chose this moment to take action, intending to catch both countries off guard.

There was a loud bang in my ears, followed by the sound of trumpets and drums that were more urgent than the previous sound.

After hearing this, Yan Chen and Liu Yan glanced at each other, and their faces were dyed with solemnity. Unexpectedly, I didn't expect the Turks to attack the city so quickly, and according to the defense of the city, it was more than that. Unless someone leaked the fortifications in the city in advance.

After hearing the horn more and more urgently, Yan Chen immediately ordered his subordinates to take Su Wan away and settle him properly. Although he knew that now was definitely not the time for him to mess around, Su Wan still wanted to fight side by side with them, and now there was nothing more reassuring in the city than his appearance in front of others.

After saying his thoughts, Yan Chen originally disagreed, but considering that what Su Wan said was indeed reasonable, the state capital was invaded by the enemy, the people's hearts were turbulent, and the army's morale was difficult to settle. If you want to stabilize the people's hearts, you can only do this.

The three of them galloped together and hurried to the city gate where the Turks were attacking the most, and before they even stepped on the gate, they heard the sound of fighting from far and near.

"Turkic siege! Watch out for falling rocks! Where is General Yan?"

Seeing this, Yan Chen pulled out the saber on his waist with one hand and picked up a half-human-high iron shield in the other, and then quickly ran to Su Wan's side and blocked her head with the iron shield to protect Su Wan as she climbed the stairs. Taishou Yanagihiko was also escorted up by others.

By the time the few people stood still at the head of the city, their shields were already stained with blood. Looking at the shield, Su Wan was speechless for a long time, and after looking at Yan Chen, he said softly: "General Yan, just go, I will take care of myself." You be careful. ”

The battle is fierce, and the dangers are unknown. Yan Chen was Ye Linchen's deputy general when he was in Yanmen, he fought many battles with Ye Linchen, and he also faced many wars alone, and he was not afraid of the Turks. This time, he personally went into battle, which can undoubtedly boost the morale of the army. Su Wan, who was standing in the corner, looked at the Turks rushing up in waves, and his heart was full of emotion.

The soldiers guarding the city were struggling to repel the enemy, and even after being slashed a few times, they did not say a word, still holding their swords. In all of this, Su Wan looked at it, and had only heard about the danger of war from his father before. But I didn't know until I experienced it myself

It's not as simple as it seems.

The enemy is fierce and ruthless, all for the sake of power.

Yan Chen, who was standing at the head of the city, raised his shield in one hand to resist the rubble, and gave instructions without panic at all. Arrange for ordinary soldiers to withdraw, and soldiers with heavy armor and iron shields will go up with shields, while archers with rockets on their backs will move slowly along the city wall, and drop rockets downwards after choosing a position.

Under the command, everyone moved extremely quickly, and the catapult was pushed up to the top of the city by several soldiers and threw boulders down. As the situation was gradually brought back from the side of the Great Calendar, the trumpet of the Turkic side was heard. After a fierce battle, the city of Yanmen was already devastated, and ruins could be seen everywhere.

Many people sat on the stone steps and hid their faces, weeping or lamenting. Su Wan, who was escorted down, had a heavy taste in his eyes. If Yaoyao was here, she would definitely be able to solve the problem with her cleverness, right?

After only a few steps, a girl with a double bun stumbled towards her. When she stumbled and almost fell, Su Wan subconsciously reached out to help her.

"Thank you, sister! Sister, you're so good-looking! The girl looked up curiously as Su Wan handed over the naan in her hand, "Sister, do you want to taste this?" It's delicious. ”

"No, my sister is not hungry. Where do you live, my sister will send you back. Su Wan squatted down and took the girl's hand and asked softly.

Hearing that Su Wan was going to send her back, the girl clapped her hands happily. Holding Su Wan's hand and turning his head to walk in another direction, the young general who was arranged by Yan Chen to escort Su Wan didn't know what to do when he saw this, so he could only leave with Su Wan.

After walking through several alleys, the group finally stopped in front of a ruined temple. After hearing the voice, several children who were about the same age as the girl in front of them ran out, and there was a middle-aged woman, and when they saw Su Wan on the side, several children showed fear on their faces and shrank behind the middle-aged woman.

Looking up at Su Wan, there was excitement in the girl's eyes that couldn't be hidden, "Oh, you don't have to be afraid." This sister is a good person, and she sent me back. Sister, my name is Yue'er. What is your name! ”

"Su Wan."

After knowing that Su Wan had no malicious intent, several children, along with the woman, let down their guard and beckoned Su Wan to sit down. The children circled around Su Wan, thinking that what they had seen was interesting and trivial

and all of them will be with her for a long time.

The older boys pestered the soldier and asked him to talk about the battlefield. For the first time, the soldiers who were surrounded by children like this were a little overwhelmed. It took a long time before he stumbled a story, which made the children laugh.

"Sister, when did you say this war would end? Yue'er had never seen those Turks attack Yanmen before! Speaking of this war, Yue'er clenched her fists indignantly and thinned her nose and said aggrievedly: "I heard that the princess who is going to make peace is now in the city. They said that this princess went to the castle tower herself, and that if she was so brave, she would not give up on us, right? ”

Met Yue'er's clear and expectant gaze, Su Wan reached out and touched Yue'er's head, and smiled Yun'er, "Of course not, this is her responsibility." No princess would abandon her people. ”

Although he has never seen the world outside the capital, what he saw and heard on the way to his relatives, Su Wan also knew that the world was not peaceful and stable as he imagined. There is a lot of darkness lurking in the shadows, quietly eating away at the flesh and blood of the Great Calendar.

Along the way, Su Wan felt more and more that she had a lot of affinity, and she talked happily with Yue'er's family at this time, and several children liked her quite a lot. Especially when Yue'er heard Su Wan say this, she nodded heavily and looked at Su Wan with a smile, her eyes full of convincing.
