After dealing with Mu Tianrun, the four cavalrymen launched another pursuit.

Chen, who was at the end of the team, sighed upon seeing this.

She lifted the carriage curtain and said to the coachman, "Old Li, stop now."

"What's wrong, ma'am?"

"The pursuers are upon us again. We must do something."

"Madam, just give me your orders, I will do as I am told."

"Okay, stop the carriage at the narrow spot ahead and cross the street."

The groom's heart tightened: "And then?"

"There's a can of kerosene in the car. You should be on fire, right?"

"Yes...yes." The groom's voice began to tremble.

"I'll pour the kerosene in the car now. Please help me light it after we stop the car."

"Madam, you..."

"If my son doesn't defend the city, I will do it for him. I will live and die with this city to prove my loyalty."

"Okay!" the groom replied with tears in his eyes.

When they reached a narrow part of the road, the coachman turned the carriage sideways, cut the ropes and let the mules and horses go.

Then, at Chen's urging, he lit the kerosene.

call!

Flames and thick smoke rose into the sky at the same time.

Seeing that the road was impassable, the four cavalrymen immediately urged their horses to turn around.

The women continued to flee towards Xiaoxi Gate in fear.

When they arrived near Xiaoxi Gate, the grooms felt their scalps tingling.

"What's wrong? Why don't you leave?" Mu Tianbo's wife Jiao asked as she lifted the curtain.

"Something's wrong, something's wrong!" said the coachman, swallowing.

Jiao took a closer look and discovered the problem.

There were many people fleeing near Xiaoximen, including civilians, merchants and officials, but there was no sign of the Ming army.

There are no city walls, gate towers, or gates inside or outside.

"Where are the soldiers guarding the city?" Jiao murmured to herself.

"Chase them quickly, don't let them run away!" Just as Jiao was confused, Sha Dingzhou's cavalry caught up again.

"You'd rather die outside the city, run!" Jiao ordered with a cold face.
