Chapter 1832: Chapter 1832: The Reinforcements Fall Into a Trap

”Dare to hurt my leopard, I’ll kill you!” The man shouted angrily, his fingers turning into claws as he reached for Bai Zebo.

The guard who had been holding Bai Zebo raised his hand to block, then grabbed Bai Zebo with his other hand and threw him to the people up front, ”You all go quickly!”

The guard who caught Bai Zebo didn’t hesitate for a moment and continued running forward, but Bai Zebo turned back to see that the guard who saved him exchanged over a dozen blows with the enemy before his head was chopped off.

They couldn’t use inner strength, only relying on brute force, how could they possibly win?

He cried even harder, yet another person died for saving him...

”Princess, there’s no time, you go first, I’ll take people to hold them off.” Yingtong’s officer said anxiously.

”No, you’re going to your death!” Yingtong’s eyes were already red, why has it come to this, she sent out distress signals to her father and Danliang, Jiang Yichun had shown up, why haven’t the reinforcements from the Western Regions appeared?

The officer pushed her, ”Go quickly, only by living can you avenge us, if everyone dies here, it’ll be in vain!”

Chu Hai couldn’t hold back his tears either, he vowed to protect Yingtong, but needed protection himself, couldn’t even stand without help, he was practically useless!

”Quick, take the princess and them away!” The officer ordered two trusted men.

A guard pulled Yingtong with his left hand and Bai Zebo with his right, while another carried Chu Hai, and they ran forward without looking back.

Yingtong bit her lip until it bled, ”I swear I’ll help you avenge!”

She spoke in sobs towards the end.

Three Barbarian Tribe aristocrats laughed wildly, commanded their beast pets to slaughter the remaining guards, one among them saw Yingtong’s group escaping, grabbed a bow and arrow from his side, drew it and shot an arrow towards Yingtong.

”Watch out!” Bai Zebo lunged forward, with a puff sound, the arrow pierced his back, he blocked the fatal blow for Yingtong!

Bai Zebo fell to the ground wounded, grimacing in pain, ”Go on, don’t mind me.”

Yingtong didn’t want to run either, cried and tried to support Bai Zebo, ”Why did you shield me? You’re still so young, how can I explain to Bai Ruozhu?”

Bai Zebo smiled weakly, ”I don’t have much ability, but seeing everyone act heroically, I can’t lag behind, right? Can’t let them ruin the alliance between Western Regions and Danliang, you and Brother Chu must survive and live happily for a lifetime...”

His voice weakened as he spoke, his head hung down.

”Bai Zebo!” Both Yingtong and Chu Hai cried aloud, why, why did it have to be this way, how many more must die to end this nightmare?

”Sir, it’s Princess Yingtong!” A loud voice rang out from afar, a team of horsemen charged through the dust, led by none other than Tang Feng.

”Quick, save them!” Tang Feng hastily ordered his men to bring Yingtong and her group on horseback, then led his men to kill those three Barbarian Tribe aristocrats and their beast pets, saving only six guards in the end.

The officer was still alive but severely injured, he told Tang Feng, ”Sir Tang, there’s still a large beast team behind, we must hurry and escape!”

Tang Feng had been roaming around the Barbarian Tribe’s perimeter recently, trying to find a way to save Jiang Yichun. No method was found, but their nose-sensitive beast pets discovered him, almost causing his forces to be wiped out. Luckily, he escaped into the deep mountains in the Northern area and avoided disaster.

Tonight, he wasn’t aware of the Barbarian Tribe’s rescue operation; it was a dispatched scout discovering the situation, immediately reporting back, leading him directly here for rescue, but he was almost late due to the distance and delay.

Tang Feng took Yingtong and her group on a wild ride, finally finding a temporarily safe place at dawn.

Bai Zebo’s back arrow was already removed, fortunately he carried many medicines given by Bai Ruozhu, allowing him to survive at a critical moment, though the situation remained extremely dangerous.

”Sir Tang, the Barbarian Tribe rescuers say there’s no way to save Jiang Yichun, sorry to trouble you.” Yingtong said with a guilty face.

Chu Hai frowned in pain, ”It’s my fault for being useless, being a burden on you all.”

Yingtong started crying, grabbing his arm, ”It’s not your fault, I was the one who handed you that poisoned wine, otherwise you wouldn’t have been hit by the dissolving potion, it’s my inability to recognize people, not realizing my maid of ten years was a spy from Sangdian.”

”Don’t blame yourselves, I know Jiang Yichun is hard to save, otherwise I wouldn’t be lingering on the periphery. Urgently, you should first return to the Western Regions to detoxify, let Bai Zebo heal, and think about other things once they’re well.” Tang Feng said with a worried expression, who could send them back?

He needed to wait nearby for Danliang’s reinforcements, getting back and forth would be unrealistic. Yet, without escort, given their current heavy casualties, how could they return to Gaochang?

Fortunately, frustrations don’t last too long, the next morning, the team encountered reinforcements sent from the Western Regions.

The visitor was General Feng Lie from the Western Regions, though he only brought twenty to thirty men, each looked exhausted, apparently facing serious trouble.

”Princess, Princess, thank heavens I found the princess, I didn’t expect to meet you, it’s my late arrival!” Feng Lie said excitedly, then dismounted, kneeling on one knee.

Yingtong looked at him absentmindedly, ”Why did you only come now? If it was a day sooner, even a night earlier, so many lives wouldn’t have been lost.”

Feng Lie showed a guilty expression, voice choked, ”I was incompetent, in the Barbarian Tribe’s territory we fell into a trap, were attacked by Honglian and her group, so many casualties among the rescue team, now only a quarter remain.”

”Honglian is still alive?” Yingtong asked through clenched teeth.

”She seems to have practiced some evil technique, her hair turned grey, her body conjured giant pythons, that’s how we fell for those evil techniques.” Feng Lie said, hitting his own thigh angrily, a general losing to a Demon Woman, it was disgraceful.

Tang Feng listened with uncertain expressions, considering Sangdian had formidable help nearby, things were more complicated.

”Princess, why not have someone escort you back to Gaochang first, I must wait here for Danliang’s reinforcements.” Tang Feng suggested, clasping his hands respectfully.

Yingtong nodded, ”I’ll send people quickly to assist you.”

”Thank you, Princess.” Tang Feng bowed again.

Chu Hai looked at Tang Feng, ”I’ll join you once I recover from the dissolving potion.”

Tang Feng nodded, ”Take care on the way, ’keep the Green Mountain, worry not for lack of wood to burn.’”

Yingtong said with red eyes, ”I promised them, I must live to avenge them!”

The two teams went their separate ways, Bai Zebo slowly woke up, watching Tang Feng’s departing figure, he smiled weakly, realizing he was still alive, and wondered about the fate of others, did they survive as well?
