Chapter 3168
"What, what kind of poison? You can't do this to me!" The young Turkic man was obviously frightened and was speechless.

Bai Ruozhu smiled calmly, "We are Danliang people, but Turks. Why can't we treat you like this? I don't have the patience, you can figure it out yourself."

"The general will kill me." The young Turk's face was filled with fear.

"Haha, at least he can't kill you now, but I can." Bai Ruozhu said and opened the lid of the medicine bottle, pretending to hold his chin and give him the medicine. At this time, the young Turk could no longer bear it. Shout, "Don't, don't, I say!"

Bai Ruozhu withdrew his hand, "Speak quickly, if there is even half a lie, then I will change the poison to a poison that will make you suffer from intestinal piercing and rotting, but you will not die, and you will live in pain for a month."

The Turkic young man turned pale and said tremblingly: "I was brought here temporarily. I don't want to fight. I really don't want to. But someone reported to the king that the Northwest Army stationed at the border had sent many troops to the Western Regions. To pick people up, the troops will definitely be lower than usual, so it’s a good time for a sneak attack.”

Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun looked at each other. This was because the Northwest Army sent people to meet them.

But how did the Turks get the news? Is it possible that there is a traitor in the Northwest Army?
No, by the time the Northwest Army sent troops to meet them and the traitor sent a message to the Turks, it would be a bit late.

They were afraid that when they sent a letter to the Northwest Army in the Western Region, the Turks also received the news. They believed that the Northwest Army would definitely send troops out, so they also mobilized their cavalry to rush to the border.

"I, I, have never killed anyone. I was recruited temporarily. If I don't go, I will be beheaded." The young Turk continued.

"Then you are not afraid of beheading if you are a deserter? I heard that the Turks deal with deserters very harshly." Jiang Yichun spoke.

The young Turk showed pain, "I'm afraid, but..."

He sniffed and said, "I have a childhood sweetheart, but someone went to her house to propose marriage. She said she would wait for me for a month. If I don't go back, her family will marry her to someone else."

Bai Ruozhu frowned, "You didn't tell the truth. A month is definitely not enough for a sneak attack on the Danliang border. Since you care so much about your sweetheart, you should try your best to escape from the beginning, or go out before Just go to her house in advance.”

"I really didn't lie!" The Turkic young man shouted, "My family is poor and her father looks down on me, so I want to make some achievements so that I can propose marriage. Before setting off, I said I was going to rob the Danliang caravan. , not wanting to go further and further away, many of us kept asking questions. The general who led the team said that he was going to sneak attack Feiyan City in the northwest of Danliang, and only then did he talk about the lack of troops in the Northwest Army. It was said that he was afraid of leaking the news. So they never told us.”

Bai Ruozhu saw that his expression didn't seem to be fake, but whether this young man could speak or not, he really got to the point directly, but the question you asked was more like a flashback and a narration, and you didn't explain it clearly. It's really easy to make people confused. Misunderstood.

"I estimate the time. I can still catch up if I go back now. If it's later, she will be someone else's wife." The young Turk smiled bitterly again, "Although I deserted, her father will definitely despise me even more, but at least I will definitely do what I promised her."

"You're quite an infatuated person." Bai Ruozhu said with emotion, "How long have you been escaping? Where were they then?"

"It's been almost three days. With their traveling speed, it would take at most eight or nine days to reach Feiyan City." The young Turk said, "I have told you the truth. If there is any lie, I will give it to you." I won't die if I'm struck by lightning! Please let me go, I want to go back and see Ashan."

Bai Ruozhu felt that what he said was basically the truth, but many things should not be taken at face value. The current situation was chaotic, and their team was not only about them, but also dozens or hundreds of lives, so they must not be careless.

She thought for a while and said, "That's it, let's go."

"Master!" Jian Qi shouted with disapproval. Jiang Yichun winked at him, signaling to listen to Bai Ruozhu.

"It's easy to find a priceless treasure, but it's rare to find a lover. Seeing as he is a lover, let him go." Bai Ruozhu said again.The young Turkic man was untied and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you sir, thank you sir."

Bai Ruozhu signaled to return the horse to him, and he took the horse and stumbled away.

"Master, the Turks are cunning, what if he is a spy..." Jian Qi said worriedly.

"So you send someone to keep an eye on him. If he is a spy, he has to go back and report the news. If you follow him, won't you know where the Turks are?" Bai Ruozhu laughed, "If he is telling the truth, let him go. Count your merits."

Jian Qi realized that he was afraid that Bai Ruozhu would be easily soft-hearted. It turned out that Bai Ruozhu had already made a plan in his heart, and his uncle knew this best.

"Also, the team is moving slowly. Immediately send people to the front to join the Northwest Army. If this is true, we must find a way as soon as possible." Bai Ruozhu said again.

"I'll arrange this." Jiang Yichun nodded towards her.

"Okay." Ah Chun knows these things best.

When she returned to the village where she settled, Gao Juan immediately pulled her over to ask. She gave a brief explanation, and Gao Juan's face became more and more solemn as she listened.

"Now we are in some trouble. We are afraid that the team sent by the Northwest Army will be ambushed, and we are also afraid that something will happen to Feiyan City. And if it is true, our team cannot move too fast, in case their attack on Feiyan City does not go smoothly. , it will be troublesome if they turn around and besiege us."

Gao Zhan shook his head as he spoke, "The Turkic cavalry are very powerful. They grew up on horseback and are extremely capable in riding and fighting. Even the Northwest Army feels a headache when facing them. What's more, we have brought a group of people with no strength." common people.”

"A Chun has already made arrangements. It will be fine." Bai Ruozhu was afraid that Gao Chan would be too anxious, so she had no choice but to persuade him.

Gao Juan sighed, "The Western Regions, the Turks, and the Yueqiu tribe are all in chaos."

"I know!" Bai Ruozhu suddenly slapped his head, "It must be a message from Eucommia ulmoides to the Turks."

He's been stirring things up just to get back at her or catch her, it's just gone too far.

Jiang Yichun came back more than half an hour later and went directly into Bai Ruozhu's room to discuss with her.

"This matter is not trivial. I thought about it for a moment. No matter it is true or false, we cannot let it go, otherwise Feiyan City will be destroyed and we will become sinners." Jiang Yichun reached out and gently helped her tidy up the hair on her temples, "I have to bring some The men and horses will take one step forward to join the supporting troops, and then rush back to Feiyan City first."

He looked a little hesitant, "But I also thought that I was afraid that this was a trap and the Turks would turn and attack the team."

Bai Ruozhu took his hand and said seriously: "Go ahead, I'm here."
