"Sir! We've caught him! We've also intercepted this!"
Tang Yanhai's capable subordinate dragged Chen San forward quickly and kicked him hard. "Speak! Tell me what you know, repeat it in front of the adults!"
Chen San had already been frightened to death. Seeing Zhao Muyun's cold eyes and the black blood flowing from his arm, he was even more terrified and cried like a bamboo tube pouring beans:
"I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything! It was our military advisor Yang Yan. He sent his nephew Yang Yi to capture the princess! They... they wanted to use the princess to threaten the Prince of Jin."
"I heard from Yang Yi that there were some merchants from Jinyang and Shuozhou. They were sent by the Crown Prince's confidants to capture the princess and frame her, Your Excellency!"
“…”
Chen San's confession was like thunder, exploding in the silent inn!
All the causes and consequences, conspiracies and calculations, became clear in an instant!
Yin Yao, curled up in the carriage, heard Chen San's crying clearly!
Every word was like a hammer hitting her heart!
It turns out...it turns out that I have been plotted against by so many people!
It turns out Zhao Muyun...was really protecting her! He even got seriously injured for it!
The huge guilt and the belated truth overwhelmed her like a tide.
She suddenly opened the car curtain and looked towards the main house.
Zhao Muyun's face was pale, and the cloth wrapped around his arm was soaked with black blood, but he still stood straight, listening to Chen San's confession with his eyes as cold as ice.
"Sir! You have been poisoned! You must be detoxified immediately!" Tang Yanhai was extremely anxious.
Zhao Muyun waved his hand, his eyes swept across the shocked crowd, and finally fell on Yin Yao's tear-stained face, which was filled with guilt and worry.
He didn't say anything, but his eyes seemed to say: Now, do you understand?
Yin Yao's tears burst out instantly. She jumped off the carriage without hesitation and stumbled towards Zhao Muyun, her voice filled with tears and unprecedented panic:
"Zhao... Zhao Muyun! Your injury... Hurry! Find a doctor! The antidote! Where is the antidote?"
At this moment, the dignity of a princess and the humiliation of being rejected were all thrown out of the window.
She only knew that the man in front of her, who was misunderstood and insulted by her, used his body to block the poisonous arrow for her and was on the verge of life and death!
......
Right now!
At the edge of the Xichuan grassland, the north wind was howling, blowing the endless dry grass, like a surging golden ocean.
On the horizon, a black line slowly squirmed and expanded, eventually turning into a suffocating torrent of iron cavalry.
The thousand elite cavalrymen of the Murong tribe, like a migrating herd of beasts, finally showed all their fangs!
The sound of horse hooves came from far away and gathered into dull thunder, shaking the earth.
In front of the Shuozhou army, Han Zhong was wearing heavy armor, sitting firmly on his horse, his face as cold and hard as iron.
Behind him were five hundred elite soldiers from Shuozhou who were ready for battle!
At the front, one hundred Modao soldiers formed an iron barrier!
They were clad in heavy armor, like moving iron towers, with the more than ten-foot-long Mo Dao in their hands pointing diagonally towards the sky. The blades reflected a cold and dazzling light in the sunlight, emitting a murderous aura of choosing their prey.
Just after Zhao Muyun left Shuozhou, Lu Zhizi and his son Lu Da gathered all the blacksmiths and forged 100 Mo Daos.
Zhao Muyun was determined to build a heavy cavalry and a Modao team in preparation for the future attack on Yunzhou.
When he handed the drawings of the Mo Dao to Lu Zhizi, Han Zhong selected one hundred tall, strong men who had participated in many battles from the entire army for training.
On the day when the Mo Dao is forged, these one hundred Mo Dao teams can go directly into battle and kill the enemy.
Today, in order to intimidate the Murong tribe, Han Zhong brought them out and prepared to test their strength.
Further behind them were the five hundred archers commanded by Lin Feng, with their powerful crossbows strung.
On both wings, Zhong Dahu and his deputy each led 200 light cavalry, like cheetahs ready to pounce.
Surrounded by his personal guards, Murong Hu rode his horse to a hundred steps in front of the battle formation.
He was tall and strong with a rough face. His eyes swept across the Shuozhou army like an eagle, especially lingering for a moment on those hideous-looking Mo Daos, with a trace of fear flashing across his eyes.
"General Han!"
Murong Hu's voice was like a bell. "The entire Murong clan is here! We are sincere! You, the 'Steward' and 'Hero' of Shuozhou, will you please open my eyes today? General Han may decide the terms of our clan's submission."
He ignored Murong Chunhua's advice and insisted on testing the strength of the Shuozhou army.
Han Zhong urged his horse forward a few steps, his voice steady and powerful, clearly carried throughout the armies of both sides:
"Clan leader Murong! The strength of Shuozhou is the men behind me! The eagles of Shuozhou are the swords and spears in their hands!"
"The rules of surrender were explained to you before you left! But I also said..."
He suddenly drew the sword from his waist, pointed the blade at the sky, and shouted sternly:
"If we are friends, we will drink and eat together! If we are enemies, we will fight with swords!"
"Clan leader Murong! Whether to fight or make peace, the decision rests with you today! Do not attempt such provocative actions again, wasting the lives of your tribe's warriors!"
"Great! That feels good!"
Murong Hu's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he suddenly laughed out loud, "Then let me see if your Shuozhou Army is worthy of being my Murong tribe's friend! My men!"
He suddenly drew out his scimitar and pointed it at the Shuozhou army. "Charge them down! Show these Dayin people what a true eagle of the grasslands is! Kill!"
“Woo!”
The deafening horn sounded!
More than a thousand Murong cavalrymen started moving instantly like a floodgate opened!
The war horses neighed, the scimitars were as sharp as snow, and they rushed towards the Shuozhou army with the momentum to destroy everything!
The earth groaned under the iron hooves, and smoke and dust rose into the sky!
