Famine Year: I Help the Beautiful Female General Build Infrastructure

A ceramic jar became sentient, knowledgeable of past and present. Wang Yan relied on this ceramic jar to befriend an ancient beautiful female general.

Her name was Tan Junyan, a legend of the...

Chapter 136: Barbarians invade the city, life and death are uncertain

After Tan Junyan finished writing, she folded the letter carefully and sent it over in a porcelain jar along with the gold and jewelry that the little emperor presented to the barbarian army.

"Boss, Boss..."

Xu Dong ran all the way without even knocking on the door and rushed directly into Wang Yan's office.

He gasped for breath and said, "Something...something big happened."

Then he handed the paper to Wang Yan.

"Tan Junyan sent twelve boxes of jewelry and this letter."

"Pengshui City can't hold on any longer."

Wang Yan's face changed slightly and he hurriedly checked the contents of the letter.

As I watched, my hands trembled slightly unconsciously.

"Is my beloved female general going to be offline?"

Wang Yan's face was filled with frustration.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?"

“Is history irreversible?”

Tan Junyan's appearance and figure kept appearing in my mind.

At such a young age, such an outstanding and proud girl, she died so young?

Xu Dong scratched his head anxiously, "Boss, what should we do?"

Wang Yan scratched his head with one hand and thought hard.

After a moment, his eyes lit up, "Let Tan Junyan and the soldiers use the porcelain jars to come here."

"For now, this is the only thing we can do."

Wang Yan picked up a pen and wrote two simple sentences on the paper.

The meaning is very simple, let Tan Junyan and the soldiers come here to avoid the sharp attack temporarily.

After writing it, he handed it to Xu Dong, "Hurry, send it to Tan Junyan."

"good."

Xu Dong picked up the letter and ran out without stopping.

Tan Junyan soon saw Wang Yan's letter.

Looking at the contents of the letter, I smiled with relief.

He picked up the pen and wrote on the paper: Prince Wang, I know you are a good person, and I appreciate your kindness, but it is too late, and the barbarian army is about to arrive at the city.

Time is tight and we cannot send all the people to you.

If I leave now, what will happen to the people?

The lives of the people are hanging by a thread. How can Yan abandon them and go to your place to survive alone?

They regard me as their support. If I abandon the city and flee, they will suffer a devastating disaster and become the victims of the barbarian army.

Although staying may not necessarily change the current situation, Yan can only feel at ease if she dies in battle.

As a general, I have long been prepared to die on the battlefield.

I was born and raised here.

Every expedition, every battle, has put life and death aside.

Today may be my last time to fulfill this mission.

It’s just a pity that we were unable to usher in a peaceful and prosperous era.

Maybe everything has been destined.

If there is an afterlife, I don’t want to be born in troubled times. I hope I can meet you in the afterlife.

Don’t worry about me after I leave!

"Boss, Boss..."

Xu Dong ran into Wang Yan's office again, and this time, he took the porcelain jar with him.

"The commander...has decided to die alongside the people."

"Why are you so stubborn?"

Wang Yan took the letter and read its contents, his face full of pain and helplessness.

"She's so young, how could she die?"

Wang Yan's voice became hoarse.

Every little detail of my acquaintance with Tan Junyan kept emerging in my mind, and the more I thought about it, the more heartbroken I felt.

He picked up the pen again and wrote on the paper: "I won't let you die. I want you to live, live... You must live for me..."

"Young Master Wang..."

Wang Yan had just thrown the letter to Tan Junyan when the soldiers walked in.

The leading waiter bowed to Wang Yan and said, "Young Master Wang, the commander is in trouble, please let us go back!"

"Even if we must die if we go back, we have to go back because we are the Tan family army and we can't just stand by and watch our coach get into trouble."

Xu Dong nodded heavily upon hearing this, "Yes, Boss, let's go back!"

"absurd."

Wang Yan hurriedly took the porcelain jar in his hand and said, "Everyone should go back to do what they need to do. If anyone says they want to go back again, I will destroy this porcelain jar."

"Boss!"

Xu Dong's eyes were red and his expression was a little excited.

I know that Wang Yan did this because he didn't want everyone to go there and die.

"What are you looking at?"

Wang Yan continued to shout, "Tan Junyan can't come over. She doesn't listen to me. Don't you listen to me either?"

"Young Master Wang..."

One soldier knelt down directly.

"I know you're doing this for our own good, but if the Tan family army is destroyed, we won't be able to survive alone!"

"Master Wang, we beg you, just let us go!"

Everyone knelt down, even Xu Dong knelt down.

"The coach has been so kind to us. Now that she's in trouble, how can we just live in disgrace?"

"If we can't share the coach's hardships, we're just zombies if we're still alive."

Xu Dong clasped his fists and said, "Boss, we all know there's no coming back, but we can't abandon our coach!"

"The Commander taught us to be loyal and righteous. If we abandon him today, wouldn't we be treacherous?"

"Master Wang, we know you have good intentions, but you can't let us do something unjust!"

"The commander is just a woman, and she is willing to die for justice, let alone us, seven-foot-tall men?"

Wang Yan felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw how loyal everyone was.

After calming down a bit, he said, "What can you solve with just a few of you going back? Besides, would Tan Junyan let you go back?"

"Now, the Tan family army is not finished yet! Tan Junyan is still alive!"

"If you don't want Tan Junyan to die, get out of here and don't bother me trying to save her."

Xu Dong was stunned. "Do you have a way to save Tan Junyan?"

Wang Yan rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't leave now, I really don't have any other options."
