The iron hooves of the 100,000-strong army had just gone away, leaving behind very obvious footprints. Following these traces, Shen Huaixu headed all the way towards Youzhou City.
After walking like this for about half an hour, we saw a dark mass in the distance.
Whether to continue forward or bypass the army and enter the city, that is the question.
Shen Huaixu thought about it and was still unwilling to give up the mark he had made.
She didn't slow down, still riding towards the Northern Qiang army. When she was only fifty meters away from the rearmost team, Shen Huaixu stabbed the horse hard with the dagger in his hand.
The horse neighed in pain and charged towards the crowd without hesitation. At the moment the horse was about to be beheaded, Shen Huaixu fell to the ground and rolled several times on the ground to cushion the blow.
Then he dodged and hid in the enemy team.
Because of the sudden appearance of the horses, the Northern Qiang soldiers went on full martial law and built defensive shields behind the team. Each of them had a vigilant look in their eyes, always on guard against sneak attacks.
What they didn't know was that the attacker had already mixed in with their team and was carefully moving through the crowd, moving towards the target unswervingly.
At the front of the army, the Northern Qiang general who was originally shouting at the city wall froze for a moment after hearing the news from the scouts, and then his eyes were filled with anger.
He said no more, only glaring coldly at the tower. "How dare you! Men of the grassland, follow me as I take off their heads and offer them to our Heavenly Wolf God! Charge!"
At the moment when the overwhelming sound of the charge resounded through the sky, an explosion that resounded through the sky instantly drowned out the human voices, followed by a series of explosions.
The Northern Qiang soldiers were caught off guard and initially thought it was gunpowder thrown by the enemy, but later they found out that it was their own gunpowder that exploded. In an instant, they fled in all directions and their army was in disarray.
The ground was covered in blood, broken limbs were everywhere, and the aroma of burnt human flesh could be smelled.
At this moment, the gates of Youzhou City opened wide, and soldiers wearing the armor of the Great Jin Dynasty rushed out with the sound of the charge horn. Fu Yin was in the front row. He was wearing iron armor and a black mask on his face. He had a cold temperament, like the reincarnation of the god of death.
When he saw the chaotic situation clearly, he immediately mobilized his mental power to search for Shen Huaixu.
Chen Huaixu was having a lot of fun on the battlefield.
The man fighting against her looked like a deputy general. He was strong and muscular, and the big beard on his face was very eye-catching.
It was called a battle, but in fact it was Shen Huaixu's one-sided teasing.
The bearded lieutenant was in a state of nervous tension, almost falling into the abyss of collapse. He had killed countless people in his life, but had never been as scared as he was now.
He was pulled off the horse, and everything started to become strange after he landed.
Maybe there was something wrong with his eyes, but he could feel someone attacking him continuously, but he couldn't see that person.
This frightened him and cold sweat broke out on his back.
"Who is it?! Who is it?! Come out here!!!" He shouted in poor Jin dialect, waving the big knife in his hand crazily, almost going crazy.
This situation almost made the Northern Qiang soldiers despair, as their trump cards became weapons to kill themselves.
As the people were in panic and the soldiers fled in all directions, the deputy general also went crazy.
Why fight? Run!
As a result, more Northern Qiang soldiers fled in panic.
Fu Yin rode his horse and pulled Shen Huaixu, who was nearly hit by the sword, onto the horse, and let her sit in front of him.
"Hey, hey, hey, pick up the bearded man's head quickly!" Shen Huaixu immediately gave orders when he saw the horse passing by the bearded man.
Fu Yin obediently pulled the reins, turned his horse, and stabbed the frantic bearded man with his spear. His heart was pierced, and his eyes regained clarity, but it was too late. He spat out a mouthful of blood unwillingly. The knife in his hand fell to the ground first, and then his body fell to the ground, dead.
Chen Huaixu looked up at Fu Yin, but could only see his chin. After seeing the mask on his face clearly, his thoughts wandered for a moment before returning to the present. "Let me go, I'll go back to the city by myself."
Fu Yin looked down at her without saying a word. He raised his hand and lifted the cloak behind him, covering Shen Huaixu completely. He said in a low voice, "I'll make arrangements later."
His vision was blocked, and Shen Huaixu reached out to pull at his cloak, then heard Fu Yin say, "Take off the invisibility cloak first."
Chen Huaixu stopped moving and took off his cloak. He felt the coldness of the north again. Fortunately, Fu Yin's cloak blocked the wind, so it was not so unbearable.
She yawned and said nothing more. For some reason, she felt that Fu Yin's gaze at her was a little strange, and she was not used to it for a moment.
Fu Yin's horse wasn't easy to ride, and on the way to the city gate, she had to constantly deal with the soldiers who regrouped and attacked. She wanted to just jump off several times; it wasn't like she couldn't find the city gate.
It was just that Fu Yin was still able to take care of her during his time in the war, and she didn't feel comfortable rejecting his kindness.
After arriving at the city gate smoothly, Fu Yin handed Shen Huaixu to a young soldier and gave him a few instructions before rushing back into the battlefield.
The young soldier looked really small, with a tender face and some baby fat on his cheeks.
When he saw Shen Huaixu, his eyes widened and he was obviously shocked.
After the shock, he pulled Shen Huaixu and wanted to enter the city, but was stopped by a line of soldiers.
"I am under the command of Fu Qianhu, and I am here to escort the people of Youzhou into the city." He took out a token as he said this.
After the officer looked at the token, he frowned and looked at Shen Huaixu before letting him go.
"Don't forget to register with the clerk!" he added in a gruff voice.
"Hey, big brother, I know, I know." The young soldier apologized with a smile.
When registering, Shen Huaixu wrote her real name. Later, she asked the young soldier's name and learned that his surname was Bai and his name was Bai Xiaoliao.
Perhaps because he had been told, Bai Xiaoliao did not ask why Shen Huaixu appeared outside the city. He only asked: "Where does the young lady live? I can take you back."
Shen Huaixu shook his head, "No need, I can go back by myself."
Hearing this, Bai Xiaoliao shook his head repeatedly, "No, no, no, I can't do that. Brother Fu told me to get you back to the inn safely!"
"Then let's go. I know the way."
On the way, Shen Huaixu learned that although Bai Xiaoliao looked young, he was about seventeen or eighteen years old. His hometown was in Lingnan. He fled to the north to escape famine. All his family members and relatives died on the way, leaving him alone. He felt that there was no hope for him to live, so he joined the army, thinking that since he was going to die, he might as well die a worthwhile death.
He smiled shyly, not even slightly showing that he was someone who wanted to die. "...I was badly bullied by some veterans in the barracks before, and I wanted to fight them to death. It was Brother Fu who helped me teach those guys a lesson. I'm really grateful to him, he's a very good man."
Chen Huaixu thought of Fu Yin's appearance on the battlefield, and then thought of Fu Yin's appearance when he stood up for others. He found it difficult to imagine what would happen next.
She had previously worried that too much killing would be bad for Fuyin, but now it seemed more humane.
"By the way, who are you to Brother Fu?" Bai Xiaoliao looked at Shen Huaixu curiously.
