When Ye Chen realized that something was going to happen to Su Fu, he immediately knew that something was wrong.

Su Fu was originally there to support him. If anything happened to him, his retreat would be cut off.

This retreat is cut off.

I really became a sandwich.

Ye Chen would never allow this to happen.

"Qiu'er, send some of the Imperial Guards to defend those two paths. Don't let the Imperial Guards on the mountain rush down so quickly. The rest of you, follow me down the mountain immediately!"

Ye Chen immediately gave the order.

Shen Qiu immediately made arrangements, and he immediately led more than 700 imperial guards and quickly headed towards the foot of the Qinling Mountains.

Ropes dropped from the cliff.

Ye Chen quickly climbed down the cliff along the rope.

But he just stood firm.

Immediately, the imperial guards came forward.

"Your Majesty, we've suddenly spotted Imperial Guard scouts around here. We've also discovered that the main force of the Beijing Camp has already left the camp. Lord Su Fusu has already led his men to the nearest Luo County."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's face darkened slightly.

Things turned out exactly as he expected.

The chief general of the Beijing camp really took action.

He then took out a topographic map of the Qinling Mountains and, with just a glance, he saw the importance of Naluo County's location.

This county town is located to his north, leaning against the Qinling Mountains.

Although it is not big, its location is very important.

Su Fu obviously realized that something was wrong and responded immediately.

"Qiu'er, how is Luo County's defense?"

Ye Chen asked.

"Your Majesty, Luo County has a city wall, but it's only about ten feet high and is made of earth. Lord Su only has a hundred men, and we have so little time to prepare anything."

Shen Qiu frowned and said.

"Your Majesty, Lord Su also sent us with news that he can attract the enemy in Luo County and let Your Majesty go first."

Another imperial guard stepped forward and said.

Hearing this, Ye Chen frowned slightly.

If he left, Su Fu would be finished. Besides, he couldn't leave alone. He had to take the captives and miners with him, so he couldn't leave quickly.

If the Beijing Camp catches up with Su Fu after dealing with him, Ye Chen may be able to escape in the end, but all the witnesses he worked so hard to find will probably have to stay here.

At that time, if the people from the Beijing camp set another fire.

Burned the entire Qinling Mountains.

All the evidence of the crime disappeared.

If Ye Chen wants to overthrow the powerful official by this means, it is probably just a daydream.

Those common people who died unjustly in the Qinling Mountains died in vain.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth.

"Send the message, everyone follow me to Luo County!"

"I just don't believe it. The people in the Beijing camp are all traitors who dare to disobey the emperor's order!"

Without military tokens, the troops in the Beijing camp cannot be mobilized at will.

At this time, the troops in the Beijing camp were mobilized, probably because Cao Tao lied that he was going to suppress the bandits.

After all, the Jingying is also responsible for maintaining public order around Kyoto.

Moreover, for a small matter like suppressing bandits, it can be resolved by simply reporting it after the battle.

Not to mention, the interests in the Qinling Mountains are involved with many aristocratic families.

All the officers in the Beijing camp are from prominent families.

Ye Chen guessed that this was the reason Cao Tao could mobilize the entire Beijing Camp army, but if the soldiers in the Beijing Camp knew that they were going to deal with the imperial guards who had the imperial edict.

Then the result will definitely be different!

Moreover, Ye Chen didn't want to give up Su Fu.

Even though Su Fu was Su Mengjiao's man, he was covering Ye Chen's retreat.

Ye Chen had to do nothing, just give up on this guy and escape alone.

Ye Chen couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

He was unwilling to give up the evidence he had worked so hard to obtain.

So, no matter how dangerous it is, Ye Chen is determined to give it a try.

And with his order, a large number of imperial guards formed a team and headed towards Luo County.

Ye Chen then turned to Murong Yan and said, "Boss Murong, you have already shown me the way. You have nothing to do today. You can go back first."

Hearing this, Murong Yan bit her lip.

"Your Majesty, it is too dangerous for you to go. Let me stay by your side and help you. I still have some people."

"Boss Murong, if you want to help me, then stay. If you're by my side, I won't be able to move freely. As for your people, I'll borrow them for now and return them later. If there are any casualties, I will compensate you."

"Also, Boss Murong, you will take care of these captives and miners and send them to the nearby villages. I have left the people from the Supervisory Department, and they will also obey your arrangements."

Ye Chen smiled slightly. This time he was going to face the main force of the Beijing Camp, and he didn't want to involve too many people.

And there was no way he could take those prisoners and miners to fight.

Hearing this, Murong Yan felt quite moved.

Ye Chen was obviously protecting her.

She also knew that Ye Chen was right, and that she might not be able to help by staying with him.

Even though she knows some martial arts, she is a woman after all, and can never compare to men in terms of physical fitness. She may indeed become a burden on the battlefield.

"Qiu'er, leave a few people behind to protect Boss Murong, and the rest of you, follow me!"

Ye Chen waved his hand and turned over to ride on a horse.

Before Su Fu left, he left a few horses at the foot of the mountain, hoping that Ye Chen could run faster.

However, Ye Chen had no intention of running away at this time.

As soon as he pulled the reins, he led nearly a thousand imperial guards towards Naluo County.

The imperial guards quickly formed into square formations and marched forward.

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, the sound of orderly footsteps gradually faded away.

When Murong Yan saw this scene, she was stunned for a long time.

And at this moment, in front of these imperial guards.

Shen Qiu was also riding a horse, walking side by side with Ye Chen.

"Qiu'er, send someone on a fast horse to find the army of the Beijing camp. Don't let these people get entangled with the soldiers of the Beijing camp any longer. Let them shout at the top of their lungs from the periphery, saying that there is an imperial decree, and the Imperial Guards are taking action, so these soldiers can retreat."

"Send someone to find Di Gui and have him hurry up and bring his men here. It would be best if they could get here tomorrow!"

Ye Chen thought about it and then gave an order to Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu immediately went down to pass on the order.

Then, Ye Chen hurried on his way.

He has already made the necessary arrangements.

Next, all that remains is to face the Beijing army head-on.
