Chapter 494: Leaving the Border
"The people above hurry up and open the city gates, or I will kill this woman!"
The barbarian who walked in front pulled a rusty and stiff Chinese, and while raising the knife in his hand, he dragged Su Liuye in front of him.
The gale wind blew dust and sand on her face, and Su Liuye's eyes were blown uncomfortable, and she struggled to open her eyes to see clearly ahead. In front of him was the towering city wall, and in front of him was a large clearing, perhaps because the two armies had already fought yesterday, and there were not only many blood stains in the clearing, but also many broken weapons.
She endured the pain in her eyes, and when she looked up, she saw a number of people standing on the wall, all of them soldiers in armor and armed with spears or bows, their sharp eyes falling on the battlefield.
Su Liuye's eyes soon saw the man standing in the middle of the soldiers, the other party's silver armor glowed with a cold light of slaughter in the sunlight, and the helmet blocked most of his face, but Su Liuye could still see his quenched ice gaze like a sharp blade looking at this side.
When he saw her, the man's gaze was obviously moved.
It's Chu Yan!
Su Liuye was shocked, it was the first time she had seen Chu Yan dressed like this. It's just that she didn't have time to think about it, so she hurriedly shook her head at Chu Yan, hoping that he wouldn't be impulsive, and she must not agree to the barbarian's request for her.
"What are you doing with this woman!"
Seeing her small movements, the barbarian beside her directly gave her a slap.
The barbarians were all tall and big, and their slaps fell on their faces like iron fists, and Su Liuye only felt that his eyes were full of stars, and his face was hot and painful.
The buzzing of her beaten ears made her unable to hear the voices of the people around her clearly, only to see Chu Yan's face gloomy standing on the city wall, and the soldiers around her raised the longbow in their hands, and the sharp arrows were aimed at her.
Su Liuye's heart sank, and cold sweat oozed from her back.
There were so many archers on the walls, if they fired their arrows at the same time, she would surely die!
The barbarian behind him also thought of this ending, and when he saw the arrow aimed at them, the barbarian was furious, and he didn't scold anything when he shouted loudly.
Su Liuye's ears were still buzzing, and he couldn't hear it clearly at all, only seeing people on both sides shouting. The barbarian behind her kept screaming, and Su Liuye didn't know if it was because she had just been slapped in the face, her eyes were black, and she only felt that the sun falling on her body was extremely hot, and her head was dizzy.
The people on both sides were still shouting at each other, and the deafening noise made Su Liuye even more uncomfortable.
Not knowing what was going on in front of him, Su Liuye only saw that the soldiers on the city wall began to stir. She tried to get out of here, but her eyes went black and she fainted.
I don't know how long it took, Su Liuye felt a chill on her face, and her aunt's worried voice came from her ears, "Madam, Mrs. Chu, wake up!" ”
"......" Su Liuye struggled to open her eyes, and in a daze, she only saw the plank above her head.
She was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she seemed to be in a carriage, and that the aunt who had been caught by the barbarians with her was watching her nervously.
Seeing that she finally reacted, the aunt breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly brought a water bladder to her, "Mrs. Chu, do you want to drink water?" You've been in a coma for several days, and if you don't wake up again, I don't know how to explain it to General Chu. ”
“…… Auntie, what's going on? ”
Su Liuye opened his mouth only to find that his voice was hoarse, like the sound made by a saw when it sawed on a wooden board, a little harsh.
The aunt exclaimed, "Madam, have you forgotten?" Those hateful barbarians have brought you to the battlefield and want to use you to threaten General Chu to open the city gates. The general naturally knew that this was their conspiracy, but he was reluctant to let you get hurt and deliberately wanted to open the city gates. ”
"What?"
Su Liuye hurriedly sat up, she didn't expect Chu Yan to be so irrational. If the gates were really opened, wouldn't they send the enemy in vain?
Such a thing is absolutely not allowed!
"Mrs. Chu, don't worry, General Chu naturally didn't do this." The aunt hurriedly explained, "Opening the city gate is just one of General Chu's plans, as if it was for the purpose of bringing in the barbarians." But some people in the military camp didn't know the general's plan, and as soon as they heard that the city gate was going to be opened, they thought they were arguing with Chu Yan on the city wall, and the barbarians also took advantage of this time to make trouble. ”
"Mrs. Chu, didn't you see how chaotic the situation was at that time!" The aunt had a look of horror on her face, "The barbarians are trying to break open the city gate below, and the people on the city wall are arguing again. Fortunately, General Chu stabilized the situation and rescued you, Mrs. Chu. But you have not been able to wake up, madam, and you have come over to take a look, only to find that the barbarian had drugged you during breakfast on the day of the tent, and now that the effect of the medicine has passed, you have only woken up from your slumber, madam. ”
"Did they drug me?" Su Liuye was surprised.
"Yes, ma'am!" The aunt nodded, "Later, General Chu interrogated them, and they said that this medicine has the effect of suspended animation, and people will faint to death after taking it, and there is no breath." The barbarian gave you this medicine because he wanted to pretend that you were dead in front of General Chu and trick General Chu into opening the door, and at the same time, it was also to deceive General Chu for the second time. I was frightened by you, Madame, but luckily you woke up a few days later, as the doctor in the barracks said. ”
"Fake Death Pills?"
Su Liuye was stunned, she really didn't know these things.
After a brief rest, her spirits improved a lot, and she gradually began to recall the events of that day. Before she fell unconscious, she did seem to see someone rushing towards her, and it turned out that those people were people sent by Chu Yan.
Lifting the curtain, Su Liuye saw that there were mountains and forests outside.
The aunt also told her that there was already a war on the border, and after Chu Yan rescued her, he arranged a carriage to send her back to the capital, and they were now on their way to the capital.
The aunt's husband is estimated to have gone to the camp, and the aunt also has relatives in the capital, so this time she happened to follow Su Liuye to the capital to seek refuge with relatives, and she could also take care of Su Liuye on the way.
Su Liuye breathed a sigh of relief when she listened to her aunt's words, as long as Chu Yan could handle the border affairs, it would be fine.
The carriage swayed all the way forward, and when it reached the next town, Xiao Wu got into the car.
Seeing Xiao Wu, Su Liuye was excited for a while, and after some inquiry, she learned that Xiao Wu followed the army to the camp that day, but she didn't see Su Liuye coming over for a long time, worried about whether something had happened on the road, she called a few people back to check and happened to meet a few barbarians, only then did she know that Su Liuye was captured by the barbarians.
Xiao Wu knew that the barbarians would use Su Liuye to threaten Chu Yan, so he rushed back overnight to inform Chu Yan.
