The general of the Eastern Qi jumped off his horse, walked over triumphantly, and stepped on his injured shoulder.

"Hahaha! The incomparably brave General Abdo seems to be nothing special after all!"

Not content with that, he used the spur on his heel to poke into the wound, twisted it, and demanded, "You have the blood of Dongqi flowing through your veins, yet you've come to the Southern Frontier to be a lackey. How about it? Do you regret it now?"

Since becoming a general, when has Abdo ever suffered such humiliation?

Anger surged from the bottom of his heart, his face, hidden under his beard, turned bright red, and he struggled to turn over, his hands bracing the ground.

The result was that they were suppressed even more tightly by the other side!

The man even bent down, sniffed his scent, and shook his head disdainfully, saying, "Tsk tsk, getting completely drunk before the battle, who else but you will lose?"

A sense of humiliation quickly spread throughout his body.

He shouldn't have gone to see Jin Jiao'er! He shouldn't have drunk alcohol!

But his biggest mistake was leaving the parasol tree behind!

Without him, we definitely wouldn't have lost this time!

He should have killed Wutong with a knife the very first time they met!

Abudo's eyes were bloodshot, and his fingers gripped the stone tightly, crushing it into powder.

A man from Dongqi reported: "My lord, we have found a cloth shop ahead!"

Prince A was overjoyed: "Haha, the cloth shop! Quickly go and grab some silk, it's a real treasure! Lord Tuotuo loves it!"

The man asked, "Sir, what should we do with this person?"

This person is naturally referring to Abdo.

Agona glanced at Abudo with disdain, kicked him and said, "You bastard, taking him back will only dirty our Dongqi grasslands. Kill him."

"Yes!"

At a command, several men dismounted, wielding scimitars, and stepped forward, their posture suggesting they intended to chop Abuduo into mincemeat.

The prince mounted his horse without a second thought, preparing to head towards the rare cloth shop.

Just as the first blow was about to fall, a clear, youthful voice suddenly rang out from the city wall.

"Release General Abdo!"

The hundreds of people below the city wall were stunned. Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw that dozens of people had suddenly appeared on the previously empty city wall.

They lined up in a row, each holding a bow and arrow, the bows drawn to their fullest extent, the arrows nocked.

The one standing in the very center, the one who was speaking, was a short, thin guard wearing a cloth hat, covered in blood so thick that his face was almost unrecognizable.

Agon asked impatiently, "Who are you?"

The man replied neither servilely nor arrogantly, "I am Wutong, a bodyguard of General Abdo."

Wutong tree...

Upon hearing the name, Abdo regained some composure, looked up, and indeed it was Wutong.

In this situation, it would be suicidal for Wutong to bring dozens of people over.

But just moments ago, Abdo wished he could kill her with a single blow, but now that he's actually seen her, he hopes she'll get lost as soon as possible.

The prince chuckled upon hearing this: "A mere guard dares to order me to release the people? Did your mother give you the guts of a leopard?"

Wutong said loudly, "I'm not asking you to release the people based on courage, but on conditions."

Prince said mockingly, "Tell me about it."

Wutong said, "If you release General Abdo, I will have someone let you go. If you don't, you won't be leaving today."

"What arrogance!" Prince sneered. "How many men do you have? How many men do I have? If I want to leave, do you think your few dozen men can stop me?"

Wutong said expressionlessly, "Don't believe me? Then watch and see."

She gave a wink to the people around her, and immediately someone went into the command room and slowly lowered the city gate.

The city gate is very large, and it will take some time to lower it.

The prince remained calm and ordered his men, "Go and block the door, let's see how she closes it!"

"Yes!"

Dozens of men were maneuvering their horses, preparing to take action, when someone on horseback galloped towards them from the alleyway in the distance.

"My lord! Something terrible has happened!"

He was covered in blood; the hand he used to grip the knife had four fingers chopped off, and blood was gushing out like a fountain.

The prince glanced at the phoenix tree and scolded the man unhappily, "What are you yelling about? Did your father or mother die?"

The man, pale with pain and still in shock, cried out, "Sir... tens of thousands of soldiers outside the city have already stormed in! We must retreat immediately!"

Agona was even more furious: "What nonsense are you talking about? Their generals are all stuck here, who can mobilize the army?"

"It's true, my lord, they're the ones who cut me! I still have... and..."

He loosened the reins and reached into his clothes with his good hand, pulling out a helmet with a bright red plume, the insignia of the regular Southern Frontier Army!

Agona was shocked when he saw it, and his face turned flustered.

Standing on the city wall, Wutong took in their every move. When the helmet was taken out, she gave a barely perceptible smile.

Nanxing certainly didn't disappoint her.

"Sir, let's retreat! There are tens of thousands of people there!"

"My lord! My brother, my lord!"

Everyone present heard what the man said, and people became restless, with many demanding a retreat.

The prince was extremely anxious, unwilling to fight the enemy, yet feeling it would be a great pity to leave like this.

Just as he was hesitating, the city gate made a dull thud and landed.

Zhennan was completely sealed off.

Unless they breach the city walls or smash the gates, they have no way to leave from here.

Both of these methods are extremely time-consuming, and it's very possible that before they can finish, the tens of thousands of troops will already be upon them.

How to do?

As if to urge him on, the sound of orderly hooves echoed from the alley not far away, along with the screams of the Dongqi people before they were killed.

The prince, unable to contain himself any longer, had veins throbbing in his temples. With a single stroke, he severed the head of the messenger, shouting, "It's all your fault!"

After he finished chopping, none of his men dared to urge him on anymore, and their gazes toward him turned to fear.

Not only the people of Dongqi, but even Wutong was shocked by him. They never expected that there would be such a violent general in the world.

Compared to him, Abudu's impulsiveness is nothing.

Unable to bear watching any longer, she cleared her throat and said, "Make a decision quickly."

Agon looked at her with suspicion: "If I release the people, you will definitely open the city gate?"

Wutong said, "Of course, but at least we have to wait until General Abdo walks onto the city wall."

Otherwise, if she released half of them and they caught her again, wouldn't all her efforts have been in vain?

This time, Ago didn't hesitate for long. In fact, he had no other choice. The sound of hooves was getting closer and closer, and they could arrive at any moment.

"Let go!"

As the voice faded, the men who had been holding Abdo down lowered their weapons, and Abdo staggered to his feet.

Wutong hurriedly directed two people to greet him, helping him from under the city wall all the way to her.

As the two drew closer, Wutong breathed a sigh of relief, finally having rescued Abuduo.

Abudo is quite capable; with him around, there's no need to worry about Dagua Town being unable to hold its ground.

"General...are you alright..." She ran over happily and took him from someone else's hands.
