The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

Five hundred thousand barbarian cavalrymen—that was simply a torrent!

The cliff city is like a small boat in a stormy sea!

To outsiders, no matter how skilled the helmsman is, he cannot escape the fate of the ship being destroyed and everyone dying!

The soldiers in the army are generally pessimistic about this major battle, a fact that Shen Li is even more aware of than Jia Daoshi.

Moreover, the people in the city were talking about it, saying that making the old, young, women and children evacuate in advance must mean that they did not want to defend the cliff city and were ready to retreat at any time!

So, after hearing Shen Li's words, Jia Daoshi smiled and said, "Ah Li, don't worry. With your husband here, Juebi City will definitely be able to be defended! Even if it really can't be defended, I won't risk my life."

Seeing that Jia Daoshi had said so, Shen Li knew that her worries were unnecessary. Given Jia Daoshi's personality, he certainly wouldn't risk his life.

After all, this guy has quite a few rebellious tendencies.

Thinking of this, Shen Li was too lazy to say anything more: "Alright, then I'll go prepare. You can go do whatever you need to do! Oh, right! Since you have Sister Liu and that Holy Maiden to keep you company, then I won't serve you anymore!"

To be honest, Shen Li was really afraid that Jia Daoshi would come to see her at night.

Although it could improve her skills, she didn't like the feeling of her legs going weak.

……

A day later, the people in the city had all packed up and were ready to head south at any time.

Outside the cliff city, Shen Li, leading her white horse and carrying her crimson spear, bid farewell to Jia Daoshi.

"Your Highness Shen, please be careful on your journey!" The eldest prince, Wu Ce, simply bid farewell and then rode his horse to the side, leaving Jia Daoshi and Shen Li some space to be alone.

This kid can be a bit slow at times, but he can also be incredibly good at getting things done.

"I won't say much more. I'll come back once I've settled these women and children in." Shen Li disliked being long-winded and said directly.

“Okay, I’ll wait for you here.” Jia Daoshi nodded.

After saying this, Shen Li walked up to Liu Ruyan and said, "Sister Liu, you'll be the only one left in the City Lord's Mansion for the next while. I'm entrusting this guy to you, so you'd better keep an eye on him!"

Of course, the city lord's mansion couldn't have been without maids, but the only woman left to accompany Jia Daoshi was Liu Ruyan.

Hearing Shen Li's words, Liu Ruyan suddenly felt ashamed!

She had inexplicably become Jia Daoshi's woman this time, and now she and Shen Li were truly sisters. Her feelings were complicated, and she didn't know what to say. She could only nod slightly and hum in agreement.

To be honest, Liu Ruyan really didn't expect that after she arrived, all the old, young, women and children in Juebi City would suddenly leave. Now, she was the only woman left in the City Lord's Mansion to accompany Jia Daoshi, like a little white rabbit accompanying a big gray wolf!

This feeling made Liu Ruyan inexplicably a little worried!

The image of Jia Daoshi and her that night flashed through her mind, and Liu Ruyan couldn't help but swallow.

From now on, I'm afraid this guy will come to me every day to talk about our feelings!

Although she was also a powerful expert in the Free and Unfettered Realm, her legs would tremble at the thought of Jia Daoshi's unparalleled bravery!

at the same time.

Yu Feihong and Mingyue Xin were also standing not far away, watching Jia Daoshi and Shen Li say goodbye.

The two women had different feelings.

Mingyue Xin couldn't see anything clearly yet, but she felt that Jia Daoshi and Shen Li's relationship was quite good, and that he hadn't become cold-hearted because he had many wives.

However, Yu Feihong's feelings were complicated. She originally thought that after Jia Daoshi and Liu Ruyan did that thing, it would affect his relationship with Shen Li. Unexpectedly, their relationship did not become strained, but instead became more harmonious!

This felt magical to her.

Could it be that Jia Daoshi truly possesses some kind of magical power?

Mingyue Xin suddenly sighed: "Sister Yu, there's nothing left to see here. I think we should go home first. This time, the Kushan Empire's 500,000 barbarian cavalry are marching south. We need to make proper preparations. We can't let the soldiers of Juebi City fight alone!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Feihong pondered and said, "The general will make his own decision regarding the battle of Juebi City. The young general only needs to report the situation here truthfully. However, I will also try to persuade him."

After all, she had a good relationship with Shen Li, and she couldn't bear to see the people of the southwest suffer.

"Alright, you can set off now. I wish you a safe journey to Shouchun!"

Shen Li mounted her horse: "I'll be back soon, you wait."

Soon, the team set off and slowly disappeared into the distance.

After seeing off the elderly, women, and children, Jia Daoshi breathed a sigh of relief.

The fact that these people could go to the safe rear area, at least they wouldn't die in the upcoming battle, made him feel much more at ease.

Soon, Jia Daoshi returned to the city lord's mansion, accompanied by Liu Ruyan.

Next, he will ramp up production of cannonballs and grenades, which will be a major weapon in his fight against the Kushan cavalry!

……

Shen Li's entourage heading south this time was very large, including not only commoners but also some local nobles. Although there were many people, including the elderly, women, and children, there were also many carriages.

In order to protect the city of Juebi, everyone contributed money and effort. Therefore, Shen Li also brought her personal guards to escort the people south.

There are also many Vajra Realm experts in the team, so there's no need to worry about safety.

The prefecture where Juebi City is located is called Youzhou Prefecture.

When the people of Youzhou saw such a large group of people heading south, they knew that something big must have happened in Juebi City.

For several days in a row, the entire Youzhou Prefecture was filled with the news that 500,000 Kushan barbarian cavalry were about to march south and that Juebi City was about to fall.

Soon, these rumors spread far and wide, reaching even Cliff City.

The news that reached the Cliff City was becoming increasingly outrageous, eventually turning into the claim that the defenders of Da Jing had given up resistance and were ready to flee at any moment.

Faced with such rumors, Jia Daoshi was too lazy to pay attention to them. Now he goes to the blacksmith's workshop every day and gathers all the blacksmiths to work overtime to rush to make cannon barrels.

No one knew what Jia Daoshi wanted to do with these heavy iron pipes.

However, given Jia Tisi's reputation, they dared not question his actions and could only obediently follow the blueprints provided by Jia Daoshi.

As for the evening, naturally I would find Liu Ruyan to chat about life.

Several days later, in order to quell the panic among the people, Jia Daoshi directly issued a notice instructing the people of Youzhou to move south as soon as possible.

Because the Kushan Empire will gather 500,000 barbarian cavalry to march south, they will surely wreak havoc everywhere!

Once this news was fully released, the Great Jing Dynasty was shaken, and even the Longwu Dynasty was alarmed!

Upon hearing the news, many people in Youzhou began packing their belongings and heading south.

Of course, there are also some elderly people who have lived in their hometown all their lives and find it hard to leave, so they choose to stay in their hometown.
