Chapter 149
At this moment, the familiar sharp sound made Shang Ruyi's whole body feel as if struck by lightning.

"It's Mingdi!"

As she shouted, the cold light passed through the hole in the city gate and shot straight towards the emperor standing in the middle of the long street.

"emperor!"

Someone shouted in the crowd, and more people flew towards the emperor.

However, everyone's life was inferior to the meteor-like light at that moment.

The cold light shot at Chu Yang, but it barely brushed his temples. When the gust passed by, his temples were scattered and scattered, and suddenly flew up, and the sharp-sounding arrow snatched and nailed heavily. on the doorpost of the sedan chair behind him.

The large sedan chair was shaken by the power of an arrow.

Chu Yang was stunned, and couldn't believe what happened at this moment. He slowly raised his hand, touched his messy temple hair, and then looked back at the sedan chair behind him, before he even had time to react , Shang Ruyi on the side had already shouted at him: "It's Mingdi, the Turkic soldiers are coming! Ashina Shali is here!"

This time, everyone realized that the Turks launched a siege just after World War I, before even cleaning the battlefield!
The soldiers kneeling on both sides of the avenue hurriedly got up and rushed up, but Wang Shaoji had already drawn out the knife at his waist and kept waving it, shouting: "Back! Back!"

The imperial guards hurriedly surrounded Chu Yang.

"Hurry up and escort the emperor back!"

"Protect the emperor, hurry up!"

Just when everyone was in a hurry to protect Chu Yang and retreated, the imperial guards who escorted her had long ignored her and rushed to the emperor's side. She was immediately crowded in the crowd and panicked, hardly knowing what to do. where to go.

In the distance, there were the voices of Mu Xian and Tu She'er calling her desperately.

"Miss!"

"Young lady!"

Shang Ruyi raised her hand high, and was about to respond to them, when suddenly, a big hand stretched out and grabbed her.

"...!"

Shang Ruyi was startled, and when he looked back, it was Chu Yang who was being protected by the imperial guards and retreated. His face was livid, his eyes were red, and the fear and anger on his face were intertwined, showing an almost ferocious expression. With a distorted face, he tightly grasped her hand and dragged her to his side.

It was also dragged to the center where all the Imperial Guards were clustered.

Shang Ruyi was shocked: "Your Majesty—?"

Chu Yang gritted his teeth, the corners of his mouth twitched, and said viciously, "Follow me!"

"..."

Shang Ruyi didn't know why at this moment, he suddenly wanted to bring himself by his side to protect her?Or, those words just now angered him to the point that even if the Turkic soldiers came, he must punish her severely?

Shang Ruyi's mind was in turmoil, and when he was at a loss, more arrows shot in from the hole in the city gate, and only a few screams were heard, and many people in the crowd were already shot down. land.

The soldiers defending the city were still rushing towards the city gate, but this time, when the person who rushed to the front fell, they immediately hesitated.

If they had a city gate before, there would still be a shelter after all, but now, there is a big hole in the gate, what else can stop the Turks from attacking?Could it be, like last night, to use their flesh and blood to block it?
What's the point even if you're really dead?
Those who survived still had to face heavy taxes from the court, and even, when the emperor conquered Liaodong, they might continue to use their own flesh and blood to pave the way.

At this moment, all the dissatisfaction and hesitation stopped the soldiers.

Once the hearts of the people are confused, the situation of the battle will be different immediately.

No one was going to block the city gate anymore, and through the hole in the city gate, they could clearly see the Turkic soldiers coming from a distance, wrapped in smoke and dust, and they were only a few tens of feet away from them. This kind of deterrent force shocked the people inside the city gate to retreat step by step.

While being dragged back by the wrist, Shang Ruyi raised her head and looked at the panicked soldiers and terrified civilians around her.

If the Turkic people really broke the city gate - everyone here will die.

Together with her, and the person who brought her by his side!
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi raised her head and said sharply to Chu Yang: "Your Majesty! At this point, Your Majesty must reward the soldiers and give generously to the people, otherwise, who can defend Yanmen City!"

The noise around her almost swallowed her voice, but how could the two closest people not hear each other's voice.

Chu Yang looked down at her, and in those slender phoenix eyes, panic and anger were intertwined.

He is the son of heaven, the proud son of heaven, and he is the only one who has ever wanted to do it, but now, there is such a cruel reality that forces him to give up!
He refused.

But I can't help but--

Seeing the Turkic soldiers outside the city gate getting closer, and Chu Yang's expression becoming more and more contradictory, Shang Ruyi hissed and shouted: "Your Majesty, does your Majesty insist on going his own way and must die here before giving up!?"

These words, like thunder, exploded above Chu Yang's head.

His footsteps suddenly sank, and he stood in the middle of the long street, and in front of him, the Turkic soldiers were almost on the verge of entering Yanmen County.

Chu Yang gritted his teeth, and suddenly raised his voice: "All the troops listen to the order!"

In the chaos, his voice was like a thunderbolt, resounding above everyone's head.

"One enemy soldier is rewarded ten times! One enemy general is rewarded one hundred! One enemy leader is rewarded ten thousand households!"

...!
Everyone was suffocated for a moment.

Chu Yang continued: "The soldiers and civilians of Yanmen County will be exempted from taxes for three years!"

Everyone's eyes shone with ecstasy, and even the soldiers defending the city, who were a little afraid before, regained their courage at this time.

"Starting today, I—"

Having said that, he paused for a moment, and Shang Ruyi, who was standing beside him, clearly saw the unwillingness in his eyes.

For a while, she also broke into a cold sweat.

However, there was only a pause, Chu Yang gritted his teeth, and finally said: "No more conquests in Liaodong!"

With just this sentence, a burst of ecstatic cheers suddenly erupted from the crowd!

Someone even howled and shouted at the emperor: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

And the next moment, those soldiers cheered up one by one, and saw the Turkic soldiers roaring outside through the big hole in the city gate. The leader of the enemy, then their whole life, together with their family members, will be prosperous!

So, the soldiers all drew out their swords and went up to the fight with howls.

At the same time, the Turkic soldiers outside the city gate roared in, and the heavy battering ram hit the damaged city gate like a giant's fist.

There was only a loud bang.

The city gate was torn apart and exploded into countless fragments, and the Turkic soldiers immediately swarmed in!
