“It’s the Xuanjia Army,” Yuwen Sheng said calmly.
Seeing the other party's posture, Zheng Quchi suddenly realized what they were about to do. Her pupils constricted as she recognized one of them as the soldier who had talked to her about wild vegetables in the camp.
These people all came from Changxunpo camp. She said somewhat frantically, "We have to save them."
The dark vortex in Yuwen Sheng's eyes sent chills down one's spine. He said, "It's too late."
"Hahaha, Yuwen Sheng, you coward, you're hiding in the car and refusing to come out, huh? Fine, then I'll give your loyal subordinates a good welcome first, and kill them!"
At his command, the Southern Chen soldiers escorting the people swiftly brought down their blades, and—splattered—bright red blood flew far away, and more than a dozen heads rolled down the hillside...
They died without begging for mercy, without shouting, without uttering a single groan... They maintained the most arrogant and contemptuous attitude of Ye soldiers towards the enemy until their last breath, preferring death to surrender.
Zheng Quchi's bloodshot eyes were covered by a cold, white hand.
"Cheese ruler, stop looking at it."
Although the bloody and cruel scene was covered up, the image of more than a dozen heads rolling off was deeply imprinted in Zheng Quchi's mind and could not be erased.
She was trembling all over.
These beasts!
That's outrageous! That's inhuman!
Zheng Quchi was furious: "Go, Yuwen Sheng, go and chop them up right now!"

...Did he really go?
Runtu clearly saw the general's figure as he went to defend against the enemy alone. He was terrified and immediately reined in his horse, abandoning his plan to continue charging into the enemy's "heartland".
For a moment, he didn't know what to do, so he jumped onto the roof of the car and asked, "Madam, what should we do now?"
Runtu understood the general's meaning; he went to fight the enemy alone because he wanted to leave them behind to protect the lady's safety.
Zheng Quchi was completely dumbfounded by Runtu's question.
what to do?
How could she know... but with so many eyes watching her, she couldn't say she didn't know, much less show panic and nervousness.
Yuwen Sheng went to fight the enemy and clear the way, leaving only her, the general's wife, here. If they didn't ask her, who else would they ask?
She needs to pull herself together and try to think of a solution.
