Chapter 136: Night Attack
"The Turks are coming!"
In the camp, I don't know who shouted, and suddenly, countless arrows fell from the sky, as if a whole rain of fire was pouring on the camp.
"Be careful!"
only heard Lei Yu shout, and threw Shang Ruyi to the ground, Shang Ruyi was caught off guard, and the back of her head slammed on the grass, although it didn't hurt too much, but it also shocked her eyes to turn white, and when she turned her head, she saw where she was standing just now, two arrows crossed over!
It's dangerous!
The two of them looked around, and countless people had already fallen to the ground with arrows, and more arrows hit their tents with flames, and suddenly, those tents stationed in rows were set on fire one after another, and most of the camp was plunged into a sea of fire!
At this moment, the entire camp that had not had time to react suddenly boiled into a sea of screams and panic, and some people reacted quickly, and immediately found the horses nearby and wanted to escape, but they were surrounded by a crowd of people scurrying around with their heads in their hands.
"Quick, we need to get out of here!"
Lei Yu's face turned white at this time, although she was born in Jiangmen and was trained by her father since she was a child, but after all, she had never been on the real battlefield, let alone experienced such a sudden attack, and what made her feel even more uneasy was that after the originally silent night was broken by the exclamations in the camp, she clearly heard the sound of horses' hooves galloping from the northern steppe and the sharp shouts of the Turks.
It's really the Turks, and the Turks are taking advantage of the darkness to attack them!
She grabbed Shang Ruyi from the ground, her palms were full of cold sweat, and the next moment, her hands were tightly held by the pair of soft lids that were also full of cold sweat.
After looking at it, Shang Ruyi stared at her hard.
"Don't be afraid, hurry up and get your men on the horse!"
“……”
She actually told her not to be afraid at this time?
In normal times, Lei Yu would sneer even if she didn't roll her eyes, but at this time, Shang Ruyi's voice gave her a little strength, she nodded vigorously, looked back again, and said, "Everyone is walking towards the gate, there will be congestion over there soon, you hurry up and take your people out of the camp from the side!" ”
Shang Ruyi also found out, so he agreed with her and turned around and ran to his camp.
While the camp was in a panic, the second wave of Turkic arrows once again flew towards them like fiery meteors.
Shang Ruyi bent down all the way to dodge, and finally ran back, Mu Xian had already let people set up the horse, and a group of guards turned over on the horse, and when they saw Shang Ruyi coming back, they immediately led her horse to her, Shang Ruyi got on the horse neatly, and said to everyone: "The gate has been blocked, let's go out from the side, be careful, avoid the arrow, don't step on people!" ”
"Yes!"
Just when Shang Ruyi was about to leave with everyone, a figure suddenly flashed in her heart.
Subconsciously turned around, only to see that the deepest part of the camp, the direction of the king's tent lit with countless torches, had already become a mess, and it seemed that someone was still shouting something, but no one cared about it at this time.
Her heart froze, and at this time, Mu Xian and the others had already run out of the way, and found that she had stopped in the distance and did not move, and immediately shouted: "Young lady, go quickly!" ”
“……”
Shang Ruyi looked at them, and then looked back at the king's tent.
She gritted her teeth and said loudly, "You go first, I'll follow immediately!" ”
After saying that, she turned around and rode her horse and galloped away in the direction of the king's tent, although the shouts of Mu Xian and Tusheer sounded behind her, but immediately, they were swallowed up by the chaotic voices around her.
Shang Ruyi rode his horse and galloped all the way, and finally arrived in front of the huge king's tent.
Before that, they did not dare to come near here, until this time did they see the whole picture of the king's tent, it was a huge tent with a radius of dozens of zhang, even more spacious than some houses, even the doors in front of the tent were open in all directions, and dozens of torches stood around the tent, reflecting this place as if it were day.
Only at this time, the surrounding crowd was surging, and those torches that were taller than people had already been knocked to the ground, and the sparks ignited several corners of the tent, and the rockets that fell from the sky from time to time, countless holes had been burned on the top of the tent, and soon, the king's tent was engulfed in flames.
At this moment, a group of Praetorian Guards came out of it.
These people are not only tall, but also three layers inside and three layers outside, surrounding the people in the middle, plus there are cavalry escorts around, Shang Ruyi can't see the specific situation inside, of course, it is too late to see it at this time, she only knows that this group of people must be guarding His Majesty the Emperor.
So he immediately stepped forward: "Everyone, you can't go to the main gate anymore, the main entrance of the camp has been blocked!" ”
Hearing this, the tallest person in front of the centaur raised his head and looked at her with a frown: "It's you?" ”
Shang Ruyi then saw the person clearly in the firelight, and also frowned: "It's you?" ”
Wang Shaoji.
At this time, Shang Ruyi didn't care about the disobedience with him, and said loudly: "General Wang, please go to the southeast, there is no fence over there, and there are few people going there, so let His Majesty the Emperor leave quickly." ”
Wang Shaoji said contemptuously: "Your Majesty's whereabouts, how can you put your beak in it?" Get out of the way! ”
"General Wang!"
"I'll tell you to step back! Your Majesty is the true son of the dragon, how can there be a reason to leave the main gate and not go and go sideways? If you don't get out of the way, look at me-"
As he spoke, he had already pulled out the sword at his waist, and Shang Ruyi suddenly tightened his reins and took a few steps back.
And at this moment, a eunuch hurriedly ran out of the center of the crowd and said to Wang Shaoji: "Your Majesty has a will, Young Lady Yuwen's words are reasonable, General Wang, let's quickly turn around!" ”
"It's-"
Wang Shaoji's face was furious, but he couldn't refute it, so he could only glare at Shang Ruyi fiercely, and immediately commanded the people behind him: "Go, go over there!" ”
He turned his horse's head, and the men and horses behind him turned to the side door.
Shang Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately, this breath was raised again, because at this time, she could clearly see the direction of the flame arrows, a large number of men and horses were galloping towards them, the speed of the Turkic cavalry was much faster than the speed of their chaotic escape, at this time, there was no time to have any distractions.
So she immediately turned her horse's head around and galloped forward around the Praetorian Guards.
But just as she was galloping away, she suddenly felt a numbness in her back, as if something familiar, fiery gaze was staring at her.
Shang Ruyi subconsciously turned around, but saw that the people around her were crowded, and the firelight kept cutting through the sky, and the light and darkness could not see anything clearly, she couldn't care about anything else, and immediately rode her horse and galloped away.
