Taking a deep breath, Duan Linfeng slowly raised his chin.
"Send the order, let's go!"
If Ning'er was really caught by Mo Xuan, then he would rescue her no matter what the price.
His subordinates had already brought horses for everyone, and Duan Linfeng was the first to fly onto the horse. With his legs clamped, he drove the horse forward and took the lead towards the outside of the camp.
Behind him, Zhuge's father and daughter, Jin Xian and others also flew on their horses, following closely behind.
Twenty thousand soldiers were left to guard the camp, and a hundred thousand men and horses marched toward Xuzhou City in a mighty manner.
The twenty-mile journey did not take much time. When one hundred thousand horses arrived outside the south gate of Xuzhou, it was only the second half of the fifth watch.
Because it is summer, the sky breaks out very early, and a hint of fish belly white appears faintly in the distant eastern sky. A new day is about to begin.
The soldiers guarding the city naturally saw the approaching soldiers and had already sent their men to notify the emperor in the garrison. The guards drew their bows and loaded their arrows, preparing to meet the enemy at any time.
Facing the large number of soldiers and horses that looked like dark clouds outside the city, the defenders did not show any fear. The emperor was personally conducting the expedition and were currently sitting in their garrison. Their number of soldiers and horses was not less than that of the other side, and they were still defending the city.
The party naturally has great confidence.
In the garrison mansion, Anfu ran up the stairs eagerly and saw Jiu'er sitting on the couch with ropes all over his body, tied like a rice dumpling, and Leng Ning standing beside him, pressing with a dagger.
The words that came to my mouth were stuck in my throat.
It was fine before, but... what's going on?!
"What's wrong?!" Seeing the expression on Anfu's face, Jiu'er was not surprised and just asked with a slight smile.
Although Anfu was full of doubts, he did not dare to say anything. He just replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, General Lu sent someone to report that Duan Linfeng's army has arrived at the city. Please make your decision!"
"He's on time!" Jiu'er nodded lightly, "Go prepare a carriage and take Ning'er and I to the south gate in person. Don't let anyone see me like this!"
"Your Majesty!" An Fu glanced at the knife in Leng Ning's hand with concern, and whispered, "What kind of song are you two doing?!"
Jiu'er smiled and winked at him, "Don't talk nonsense, if you don't want me to be killed by her, just hurry up and prepare the carriage!"
Seeing his calm and unruly look, Anfu naturally realized that all this was probably not true. Naturally, with his mind, he couldn't figure out why, but he still turned around obediently and went to prepare the carriage for Jiu'er.
