C26 Ambushed

"You are so brave that even Fourth Prince dares to steal from under your nose. Should I call you stupid or brave?"

Yun Zhan and Yun Jian held their swords and stood in front of the dungeon, one on the left and the other on the right. They glared at the masked men below like tigers stalking their prey. The man looked at the two of them coldly. There was no fear in his eyes.

Outside of the crowd, Ling Luo had already returned to her tent, feeling that something wasn't quite right. Looking at the dark twilight, she felt inexplicably terrified: Situ Yunhao was not a reckless person. There was no way he would go to the prison alone. He would definitely have his own accomplices.

Who is it? Where were they all hiding?

"Little Eight, go call Commander Li to come back." She paused, then said to a kid who was younger than she was, He's making crickets.

"Luozi, the commander is doing meritorious military service right now. Why did you call him back?"

"Hurry up and go, stop wasting your breath." Ling Luo's expression darkened as she said unhappily.

"Alright, then weave this cricket for me." Little Eight stepped forward, gave her the reeds, and walked out of the tent.

However, before he could take two steps, he heard a 'whoosh' sound. A cold arrow shot out from his back and hit his back.

"Ah... "Luozi, there's an ambush!" Before he could finish his sentence, two more cold arrows came flying at him, and he fell to the ground uncontrollably.

"Little Eight!"

Ling Luo would never have thought that a lively, half-grown child would suddenly fall in front of her. She was the one who shouted for him to get out. She took a big stride forward and hugged the fallen Little Eight.

"Little Eight, I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose." She dragged him into the tent and put the unfinished cricket into his hands. "I'm sorry, I …"

"Son of Luo, I …" Is this considered as being part of a country... Give up your life? "

"Yes, of course!"

"Then my hero... "Is that so?"

"Hero, special hero. You are the hero in my heart."

"Then my parents will definitely be very happy."

"... Little Eight, I'm sorry, I'm sorry … " Ling Luo hugged him tightly, her eyes filled with tears. If she knew there was an ambush, she definitely wouldn't let him out.

Little Eight did not say anything else. His head tilted to the side as he died. Right at this moment, concentrated 'swoosh swoosh' sounds resounded in the surroundings, and countless miserable cries instantly sounded out, causing Ling Luo's heart to palpitate with fear.

"She grabbed a shield and rushed out, roaring at the barracks." Get down, all of you get down, stick close to the ground. "

She knew clearly that this kind of Crossbow's shooting method could not be aimed at less than a foot away. In a short moment, a dense rain of short arrows flew out like rain, enveloping the entire relay station.

Ling Luo held onto her shield as she rushed towards the relay station, "Those of you inside, prepare quickly. There are soldiers lying in ambush. All of you use Crossbow s as your weapons."

In the dark, a pair of ruthless eyes was staring at her retreating back, while she slowly raised her Crossbow and aimed it at her.

"Whoosh!" The strong short sword broke through the dense arrow formation and shot towards Ling Luo's back at a lightning speed. When she heard the sound, it was already too late for her to dodge. She could only shift her body, and the short arrow pierced through her shoulder blade and nailed itself to the door of the inn.

"Ugh …"

A heart-wrenching pain struck her, causing Ling Luo's face to instantly turn deathly pale. She gritted her teeth and still charged into the relay station, running towards Jun Ximo's room.

"Great General, we're surrounded by ambushers outside." When she rushed to the door, she was already staggering. The armor on her chest was stained red with blood, making her look miserable.

Jun Ximo suddenly stood up and glanced at her, "You're hurt?"

"This little one is fine, the soldiers outside are fine."

"This King will take a look!"

Jun Ximo's face darkened. He flew out of the relay station like a hawk. Two powerful auras were released from his sleeves, causing the short arrows that filled the sky to fall to the ground.

When he landed at the entrance of the inn, with a wave of his sleeve, countless arrows were wrapped in his sleeve. With a great effort, he threw them towards the darkness like a bolt of lightning. A few indistinct screams of pain rang out. It should be a few of the soldiers that were ambushed by arrows.

Ling Luo didn't stay any longer. She struggled up and walked towards the dungeon. She had to notify Lee Yan.

It was also a fierce battle in front of the dungeon. The masked men were very fierce, and there were even a few masked men dressed just like him. They were all quite skilled.

Yun Zhan and Yun Jian were fighting with all their might, and it seemed like they could only tie with these people. She found Lee Yan and forced him out of the crowd.

"Commander Li, we were ambushed. Great General went out to meet the enemy. Hurry up and save our brothers, Little Eight is already dead, I have let him down. "

"What's wrong with you? Injured? " Lee Yan was shocked when he saw her covered in blood.

"I'm fine, their Crossbow should be attacking in five consecutive rounds. Their archery skills are very accurate, go and try to get some smoke out, it might be better."

"Luo, don't say anything for now. I'll bandage your wound." Lee Yan was very worried as he was about to remove her armor.

Ling Luo hurriedly stopped him, her face red with embarrassment. "Quickly go and protect Great General, I'll find a place to bandage him myself."

"Then be careful. I'll come find you later."

"Yes!"

After Lee Yan left, Ling Luo found an empty side room and hid inside. There was a bright torch outside the window. She pulled open her shirt and looked at the wound on her chest. It was an inch above her chest. The bloodstains dyed the white silk around her chest red, which was very frightening. This wound couldn't be treated by anyone else.

She hurriedly poured some of the medicine on the wound, but it was quickly washed away by the blood. She used her hand to cover her wound, letting the medicine slowly seep into it. However, the medicine was unable to alleviate the pain. She was in so much pain that her face was covered in sweat as she leaned against the wall, gasping for breath.

What should he do? If she continued to stay here like this, she would definitely be discovered disguised as a man. At that time, it would definitely be a capital offense. Even if they didn't kill her, Jun Ximo might have seen through her lies.

She didn't want to cause any more trouble, otherwise Baili Nange would definitely be angered to death by her.

The sounds of killing outside the inn shook the heavens. She no longer had the strength to continue watching the scene. Having grown up like this, this was the worst injury he had ever suffered. However, her injuries were not the most crucial point. Rather, she was worried that someone would discover her true identity.

"Just you few dare to sneak attack this king's camp, as expected, the people from your Northern Jin State cannot be trusted. Yun Zhan, drag Tuoba Ye out and kill him without mercy! "

Outside the relay station, Jun Ximo's cold and proud voice sounded, filled with thick killing intent. Ling Luo froze for a moment. She stuck her head out and saw the thick smoke everywhere. Lee Yan must have listened to her and lit the fire.

There was a sudden silence, as if the outcome had been decided.

At this moment, a black shadow quietly crept over, and suddenly flashed into the side room. Ling Luoding looked carefully, if it wasn't Tuoba Ye, who else could it be?

He was still shackled, but he had broken it. Presumably, Situ Yunhao was waiting for an opportunity to escape when he was fighting with Brother Yun Zhan.

The two of them looked at each other in surprise. Tuoba Ye saw the clothes she was wearing and his eyes lit up, "So you are a woman? No wonder you're so eloquent. "

"... Hmph, what does it matter to you? "

Ling Luo's face turned cold. She took out her dagger and stabbed at him. However, compared to the powerful barbarians, she was nothing more than an ant.

Before the dagger could reach her, he struck the back of her neck with his hand. Her eyes immediately turned black and she collapsed to the ground.

Tuoba Ye was about to hit her with a palm, but he suddenly stopped. Looking at her unconscious, he seemed to take a little interest in her.

Looking outside, it was a mess. He smiled coldly, picked her up and rushed out of the side room. He carried her on his back and disappeared into the night.

"Oh no, Your Highness, Tuoba Ye has already run away." Yun Zhan saw that there was no one in the dungeon, so he hurriedly looked around before returning, then said to Jun Ximo in a soft voice.

"He escaped?"

"Hmm, the broken chain should have fled when we were dealing with external enemies."

"Break the chain? He still has the strength to break the chains. " Jun Ximo frowned as he suddenly realized that all of this was just a trap? Did he deliberately act weak to lure others to ambush them?

He turned to look at the fallen soldiers. Thirty or fifty had died, and dozens more were wounded. This made Great General seem even more weak, as if he was courting his own death.

Could it be that Tuoba Ye had a spy?

He suddenly thought of Ling Luo and her abnormal behavior.

"Lee Yan!"

"Great General, what's the matter?" Lee Yan walked over fearfully. He was in a very low mood. His soldiers had died the most, especially since Ling Luo was also missing, so he felt the worst.

"Where's Little Luo? Is he your soldier? " Jun Ximo squinted, his eyes as cold as ice.

"To reply Great General, he was injured just now. Subordinate couldn't care about him. After that, he was no longer able to find me."

"So, a total of two people have disappeared from the relay station. One is Tuoba Ye and the other is Little Luo?"

"... "Da-Great General, Luo would never do it in detail, he definitely won't do it." Lee Yan suddenly understood what Jun Ximo said. He was so scared that his legs went weak and he kneeled down in front of Jun Ximo. Although his subordinate hadn't spent much time with him, he was definitely a loyal person. He wouldn't do it in detail, this subordinate dares to guarantee it with my head. "

If Ling Luo were here to hear this, she would definitely be extremely grateful.

"Take Lee Yan down and wait until Mohe County to make the final decision."

"Great General, I'm not a spy, I …"

"This King will investigate this matter thoroughly. Chop down the leader of these captives and send two of them to Tuoba Hong's camp. The rest will be served with heavy punishment."

After Jun Ximo said that, he looked around at the soldiers in fear and said, "Find a place to bury all the dead soldiers. Record them and the three generations will be exempt from taxes. All those who are injured will stay at the relay station to recuperate. They will only return after their injuries have healed. "

"Yes sir!"

"This time, my army was ambushed because This King was too careless. This kind of situation will never happen again, I hope everyone does not need to be afraid. " He didn't need to explain, but he still felt guilty for seeing so few people and their low morale.

"Great General, we're not afraid!" Although the morale was very low, Jun Ximo's words still gave the soldier some encouragement.

"As for the survivors of the expedition to the north, I will show them to all of you as you advance to the third rank consecutively. Therefore, I hope that all of you can live on."

"Thank you, Great General!"

After Jun Ximo said that, he returned to the relay station and paced around the room in a fretful mood. He thought that everything was under his control, but he didn't expect that there would be a night attack.

Furthermore, Ling Luo's betrayal had made him furious. He suspected that it was all her doing. Her performance along the way was too weird. How could her small body plot against Tuoba Ye? And the intelligence she displayed was not normal either. Especially the 'Feng Qiufeng' playing at the side of the cliff, was this a message to someone?

Thinking about this, Jun Ximo became more and more angry, dark clouds covered his handsome face. Remembering that he had once felt pity for her, he had the urge to tear her into a thousand pieces.
