Chapter 350: Help with the treatment

Before they reached the city gate, they could faintly hear the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and some sounds of fighting.

"Lord, princess, the direction from which the sound of horses' hooves comes is the direction from which the people from Northern Xinjiang came." The guard pointed to the distance and explained, "If you want to see better, go down to the tower." ”

"King Yan, Princess Yan, we might as well be here!" Hearing that he was going to go up to the city tower, City Lord Li's heart was full of fear. What if the enemy attacks? The arrows that came at them didn't have eyes, and they might have died in the city.

"What are you doing here? Are you the city lord of Chaoyang City, don't you even dare to go up to a small city tower? Chu Ruoyan said to him in a threatening tone.

"This ...... Xiaguan ......, "City Lord Li kept rubbing his hands, if he had known that he would meet people from the Northern Frontier Kingdom today, he shouldn't have brought Chu Ruoya and the others to this barracks today."

"City Lord Li, please first!" Chu Ruoyan was about to go up the steps first, but she took a step back and motioned for City Lord Li to walk in front of her. City Lord Li could only step on the city tower with his head down, and when he raised his feet, he was too nervous, his feet slipped, and he actually sat directly on the steps.

"City Lord, are you alright?" The servants who followed next to him hurriedly stepped forward to help City Lord Li up.

"It's okay, it's okay." City Lord Li looked embarrassed, and quickly shook off the servant's hand and strode forward, not wanting to stay here at all.

After everyone climbed the tower, they really felt the tension of the battlefield. The soldiers on the castle tower were heavily guarded, always keeping an eye out for movements not far away.

Chu Ruoyan and Li Luobing looked into the distance, only to see that the dust was flying in the distance, and the people in the northern frontier were already fighting with the soldiers of Chaoyang City.

"It seems that there are a lot of people from the north." As soon as he finished speaking, the guard next to him answered.

"What King Yan said is right. Every time Beijiang came to Chaoyang City, there were nearly 100 people when they were young, and at the beginning they only harassed the villages around Chaoyang City, but later there were more and more people, and they began to intensify their efforts, and even almost rushed to Chaoyang City several times. ”

"What? Almost rushed to Chaoyang City? Before Chu Ruoyan could speak, City Lord Li exclaimed. If they did rush over, the tower would not be safe at all.

"The city lords don't need to be so flustered, they have never succeeded." After seeing City Lord Li's expression, the guard said with great disdain.

Li Luobing has been muttering, this Li City Lord is so timid and afraid, and he doesn't even care about it, it is really incomprehensible that the position of the city lord can sit so peacefully.

"City Lord Li, there is something unknown below that I want to ask." Li Luobing asked.

"Excuse me? Princess Yan, if there is any matter, the lower officials will definitely answer it. Hearing that Li Luobing was talking to himself and actually used the word "ask for advice", City Lord Li felt a panic in his heart.

This is in front of King Yan, and his own little city lord can't afford this word at all.

"I wonder how long the city lord has been here?"

"It's been five years." City Lord Li replied honestly.

Five years? If it has been like this for five years, it is indeed very suspicious, Li Luobing glanced at Chu Ruoyao, and also saw doubts in his eyes.

"Okay, nothing more." Li Luobing smiled at him and came to Chu Ruoyao's side.

"I always feel that there is something wrong with this Li City Lord," she said to Chu Ruoyan in a voice that could only be heard by two people, "It has to be doubtful that a city lord who has no knowledge and no skills can stay here for so long." ”

"I have already asked Yang Zhen to secretly investigate the details of this city lord, I believe that it will not be long before there will be results."

Chu Ruoyan had already thought of this question a long time ago. This time, Yang Zhen didn't come with them, in fact, he was secretly investigating the matter of City Lord Li.

They should stay here for an hour or two, and with Yang Zhen's skills, they can find out.

"Marshal, there are too many people from the north this time!" A soldier ran back covered in blood and said.

Shen Yue was a little worried when he heard this, his original plan was to drive those people from the Northern Frontier out of the woods outside Chaoyang City, but this time the Northern Frontier was menacing, and they probably wouldn't be able to resist for long.

"How long can you resist?" Shen Yue didn't care about Chu Ruoyan and the others beside him, and asked directly.

"This ......" The soldier glanced at Chu Ruoyao next to him with some hesitation, if King Yan is here, isn't it good for him to say this?

"What are you looking at, why don't you hurry up?" Shen Yue slashed his head with an angry roar, which frightened the soldiers so much that they hurriedly explained the real situation.

"The subordinates feel that it won't take half an hour, and they will have to come to the city."

Half an hour? After hearing this time, Shen Yue was also a little incredulous, how could such a thing happen when King Yan first arrived.

"You go and tell your brothers, try your best to stop the people in the northern Xinjiang, and don't let them approach Chaoyang City."

The last time Beijiang came to the city gate, Shen Yue still remembered it vividly, and that time Chaoyang City almost fell into the hands of Beijiang, and it was their desperate resistance that drove those people back.

"Yes." The soldier gritted his teeth and left, although the task was very difficult, but since the marshal had spoken, they must achieve it.

"King Yan, Princess Yan, you also heard the news just now, Beijiang is likely to come directly to Chaoyang City, for the safety of the two of you, let's go back first!"

"Okay, let's go." City Lord Li had been looking for an opportunity to leave here, and after hearing Shen Yue speak, his reaction was faster than anyone else's.

"Stop," Chu Ruo stopped his steps, "This king and princess will not leave, and the city lord must also be here." The emperor sent me here to resolve the conflict with the northern frontier, and if Marshal Shen let us leave because he was worried about our safety, then the emperor's approach would be meaningless. ”

Marshal Shen was a little embarrassed after listening to Chu Ruoyao's words, now in this situation, he had to participate in the battle in front with the soldiers, and there was no way to be distracted to protect Chu Ruoya and the others on the city tower.

"But ......"

"If Marshal Shen is worried about the safety of our waiting, then there is no need." Chu Ruoyan waved his hand behind him, and the secret guards stood up in unison.

"This king said before that he will be responsible for his own safety and that of the princess, and Marshal Shen doesn't have to take care of us." After Marshal Shen saw the secret guards beside Chu Ruoyao, he could only suppress the doubts in his heart, saluted Chu Ruoyao, and led the soldiers out of Chaoyang City.

"Lord Wang, he actually left like this!" City Lord Li looked at the direction of Shen Yue's departure in disbelief, he originally thought that Shen Yue would at least send some more people, but he didn't expect that no one was left.

"Could it be that City Lord Li also wants to go? If you go now, it's still too late, and you should catch up with Marshal Shen. Chu Ruoyu deliberately opened his mouth to scare City Lord Li, and sure enough, he successfully shut his mouth.

Li Luobing, who was on the side, had been looking into the distance and did not speak, from the dusty at the beginning, to the figures of the two sides fighting gradually became clear, Li Luobing had realized that the soldiers of Chaoyang City were falling behind, and the men and horses of Northern Xinjiang were getting closer and closer to Chaoyang City.

"Guo Dong, go and see how many soldiers there are at the gate of this city." Chu Ruoyao commanded Guo Dong.

They can't just sit back and wait for death, in case this Marshal Shen loses the battle, then they will be the last line of defense in Chaoyang City.

"Yes." Guo Dong left quickly, and after a while, he had a thorough understanding of the troops at the city gate.

"Your Highness, there are only a few hundred people at the gate of Chaoyang City now, and the rest of them have all been taken out by Marshal Shen." When Guo Dong reported this number, he was also a little apprehensive. It's good that Marshal Shen succeeded in repelling the northern frontier, but if he didn't succeed, how could they stop them?

"Divide them into two parts, one of them will guard the gates, and the other part will go up to the tower and set up my bow and arrows." In this way, even if Marshal Shen is defeated and returns, the bows and arrows on the head of the city can still block the enemy for a while.

After Guo Dong heard this, he immediately ran over and told the soldiers Chu Ruoyao's orders, the soldiers felt inexplicable about such orders, and they didn't obey them at first, Guo Dong explained to them bitterly for a long time, and they reluctantly agreed.

Some of the soldiers came to the city tower, and when they saw Chu Ruoya standing on the city tower, they all put away the dissatisfaction in their hearts.

He originally thought that this Yan King, who had just come here, would hide in the house and give orders to them, but he didn't expect that even Princess Yan was on top of the city tower.

"The three of you go to the side with bows and arrows in a group, and once you see that Marshal Shen has people from the Northern Frontier behind him, you will not hesitate to release the arrows, and you must not let them step into Chaoyang City." Chu Ruoyao's tone was very serious, and these soldiers were also serious.

Everyone waited on the city tower with bated breath for a long time, the sound of the fight gradually became smaller, and after the dust cleared, it could be seen that the people in the northern Xinjiang had left in the opposite direction, but Marshal Shen's men were not small, and they were all injured.

When Li Luobing saw the wounded soldiers, he immediately ran down the city gate and stepped forward to check on them with the doctors in the army.

"Princess Yan, it's better not to approach here." This doctor didn't know that Li Luobing's medical skills were superb, but she was an ordinary woman, and she couldn't see such a bloody scene.

"With so many injuries, can you heal them alone?" Li Luobing questioned him sharply. The doctor was speechless when questioned by Li Luobing, and was stunned for a moment, allowing Li Luobing to work there.

"Qiaosu, hurry up and bring my medicine box." Li Luobing subconsciously commanded Qiao Su.
