"My lord, be careful and watch the road."

"Please pay attention to both sides of the road, be careful of Liang Jun catching up!"

"No~"

In the narrow tree-lined path, a small group of soldiers were walking cautiously. Most of them had tattered military uniforms, looked haggard, and looked extremely embarrassed.

They were Zhou Weiran and his party who fled all the way north from outside Hanzhou City.

Of the tens of thousands of cavalry and thousands of family dead soldiers, there were now less than two thousand people left guarding Nalan Tingye and Zhou Weiran.

Heavy losses~

Until now, the officers and soldiers of the Yan army still cannot accept the fact that they were defeated and fled. Weren't they the one who took the initiative to attack? How come they were defeated and fled by the Liang army as soon as they turned around?

Nalan Tingye was still wearing the dirty blue gown, and there were two green leaves falling from his hair.

When Nalan Tingye fled from Hanzhou City that day, he didn't even have time to change his clothes. He was as panic-stricken as a bereaved dog.

This should be the most embarrassing time in Nalantingye's life.

Young Patriarch Nalan was born with a golden key in his mouth. He has been proud of the spring breeze in the grassland for so many years. He has heard words of praise in his ears and is known as the leader among young heroes.

In the past two years, at such a young age, he has been the prime minister of Dongting. He has a high and powerful position. He has never suffered like this.

"I really can't walk anymore, rest, rest for a while~"

Nalan Tingye waved his hands with difficulty, and sat down against a tree trunk with a bitter look on his face, his legs trembling with pain.

He did not ride a horse. He abandoned his horse and walked on foot after entering this small mountain road. Because the horseback was too bumpy, both sides of his thighs were bruised.

Not only him, but most of the defeated troops had already moved on foot. Their horses were either injured and could no longer ride, or they were exhausted from running for a long time without any rest.

On this kind of mountain path, walking on two roads is more convenient than war horse.

"Okay, take a rest!"

Zhou Weiran licked his chapped lips and shouted softly:

"Watch all the surroundings to prevent the Liang army from pursuing us!"

"promise!"

A soldier followed the order and left, but their expressions were very depressed and they didn't have the energy to drink.

Ulan Balsi, who was covered in filth, walked to Nalantingye's side carrying a water bag and said softly:

"Sir, have a drink of water."

Nalan Tingye, who had been thirsty for a long time, grabbed the water bag without saying a word and drank a lot. However, after only two drinks, the water bag became empty. Even the water source became extremely luxurious when he fled in a hurry.

Ulan Balsi himself was very thirsty and watched eagerly as Nalantingye drank up the water. He was so greedy~

But his life is considered to be good.

In the battle outside Hanzhou City, the Yan army suffered heavy losses. Among the two elite commanders and deputy commanders of the Yellow-Backed Silver Fox Banner and the Yellow-backed Silver Falcon Banner, only Ulan Bals was killed.

Out of a total of 40,000 troops, only 4,000 to 5,000 people followed Ulan Bars to withdraw from the battlefield, and most of them were wounded.

Coupled with the fact that they fled all the way, the broken troops became scattered, and the stragglers were left behind, there were only one or two thousand people left, and they had to always be wary of the Liang army's pursuers.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the entire army was wiped out.

If this battle report were spread back to the grassland, it would definitely cause an uproar.

"Oh shit!"

Nalan Tingye smashed the water bag angrily and cursed: "Zhuzi Chenyue is extremely abominable.

If I don’t take revenge for this, I, Nalan Tingye, swear not to be a human being!”

The breath that Nalantingye had been holding on collapsed because he was crushed by these two mouthfuls of spring water, which were not enough to drink.

After fleeing all the way, Nalanting Ye finally came to his senses. The Yan family most likely did not rebel. It was the Liang army's conspiracy from beginning to end that caused them such a huge defeat.

After one or two years of hard work, the deployment was ruined. How could Nalantingye not be angry?

Zhou Weiran glanced at him and said nothing. If he hadn't been afraid of hurting the young patriarch, Zhou Weiran would have pointed at his nose and yelled.

Nalan Tingye and Mu Yun Longyou should bear the main responsibility for the defeat of the army! If they had discussed this matter with themselves in advance, the Liang army would not have been able to attack Pinghan Road, let alone such a big defeat.

But now that the matter has come to an end, there is no point in talking more. Zhou Weiran just feels aggrieved and finds a pig teammate.

Nalan Tingye asked coldly:

"How far is Yanxingguan?"

Alenge immediately replied: "In reply to the Prime Minister, just walk out of this road. There are still four or five miles to go."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly."

After resting for a while, Nalan Tingye stood up again and moved forward. The sooner he entered Yanxing Pass, the more he would be able to let go of his hanging heart.

"promise!"

"Gone, everyone is gone!"

"Set off!"

…

An hour later, these defeated soldiers finally emerged from the forest in twos and threes and saw Yanxing Pass not far away.

It was late at night, and there were flickering lights on the top of Yanxingguan City. It was extremely quiet, and it seemed like there was no trouble here.

"Huh~"

Seeing that Liang Jun was no longer around, Nalan Tingye breathed a sigh of relief and sped up his pace several times.

I will escape soon~

Zhou Weiran was a little more cautious. As he walked, he looked at the top of Yanxingguan. Although the Yan army's flag was still flying high, he didn't know why, but he always felt uneasy.

I hope it’s an illusion~

A large number of people cheered and approached the city wall. There was no movement on the city wall, and the silence was almost breathtaking.

Nalan Tingye waved his hand:

"Someone, call the door!"

"promise!"

A tall guard walked to the city gate and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"Listen to the defenders on the city. The King of Dongting and the Prime Minister are here. Open the door quickly!"

The loud shouts echoed slowly in the night sky, but no one on the top of the city responded. A group of Yan soldiers outside the city stared at each other with big eyes.

What the hell? Where have everyone gone?

Zhou Weiran frowned, realizing that something was not right, and already touched the handle of the knife with his palm.

Seeing that there was no movement, the guy shouting shouted again at the top of his lungs:

"Where are you, the King of Dongting is here, open the door quickly!

If it's delayed, I'll take it from you!"

"Whoosh!"

This time there was movement, but there was a sudden burst of rapid sound through the air, and then a pitch black sharp arrow shot hard through his chest.

"Pfft~"

Blood spurts.

The soldier's pupils shrank and he fell straight back. He didn't understand why his comrades on the top of the city wanted to shoot him to death.

This scene made everyone fall into a daze.

"Be careful! There is an ambush!"

Zhou Weiran was the first to shout loudly, drew his sword and roared:

"alert!"

"Whoosh whoosh!"

"Chi chi chi~"

"Ahhhh~"

"Sir, be careful!"

A large wave of arrows shot out, and the Yan army was immediately shot and turned upside down. Countless shouts of killing suddenly rang out from the top of the city. There were crowds of people and dense firelight.

"I am the Prime Minister, I am the Prime Minister!"

"Stop, everyone, stop!"

Nalan Tingye was a little crazy, shouting word after sentence. He thought that the defenders on the top of the city had recognized the wrong person.

If Ulan Balsi hadn't had quick eyesight and quick hands, he would have knocked Nalantingye down with a tiger pounce, otherwise Nalantingye would have been shot to death.

Nalan Tingye was stunned and stared blankly at the top of the city.

Is it possible that even Yanxing Pass has fallen into the hands of the Liang Army?
