The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Chapter 1410: Chapter 808: Slaughter and Escape (Part 4)

In fact, the best way for the Tartars is to leave now, otherwise, once Xie Ruotong’s army arrives, they are likely to be completely wiped out before they can retreat.

The Tartars, knowing the peril, still want the Iron Cavalry Army to pay the price. To be precise, they are determined to kill him at all costs; it’s likely the Tartar leader can’t swallow this and is determined for Daxuan to pay the price!

"Your Majesty!" Xie Qianyun hurried over, both quick and urgent.

Given the current situation, they can’t hold on for long.

Perhaps for an incense stick’s worth, perhaps for an hour...

"Retreat!" Xiao Luming commanded.

At this moment, they can only run.

There’s no other way.

The only option is to wait for Xie Ruotong’s army rescue.

"Yes!"

Xie Qianyun quickly informed Wu Huahao.

Wu Huahao nodded.

The two of them left 200 men to cover the retreat, leading the remaining 800 Iron Cavalry swiftly away.

Once the Iron Cavalry Army retreated,

the Tartar army also pursued to capitalize on their advantage.

Under such relentless chasing, night fell.

The horses were near their limit; if they ran any further, they would collapse from exhaustion.

Meanwhile, at the rear, the army continued to chase, and as the ones in front fell, those behind took up the pursuit without any pause, determined to seize them in one fell swoop.

Continuing like this, they would inevitably face death before half a day passes.

"Your Majesty!" Wu Huahao looked at the rear army, "We can’t keep running like this, we’ll all die if this continues! We must split into two groups. I’ll draw the Tartars away while you and His Majesty make your escape!"

Xie Qianyun gazed at Wu Huahao.

"Your Majesty, please give me your battle robe!" Wu Huahao resolutely demanded, "I’ll change into your clothes and lure the Tartars to chase me instead!"

"Wu Huahao!" Xie Qianyun knew well the danger Wu Huahao was putting himself in.

Everyone knew the Tartars’ ultimate target was surely Xiao Luming.

Wu Huahao disguising as Xiao Luming would surely cause the Tartars to chase him relentlessly.

"Don’t delay, hurry!" Wu Huahao urged.

"I’ll go!" Xie Qianyun tried to stop him, "I’ll wear His Majesty’s battle robe..."

"My physique is similar to His Majesty’s, and besides, you need to stay by His Majesty’s side to protect him. Importantly, I’m a better rider than you, I’m more capable of shaking off the Tartars!" Wu Huahao was very resolute.

Xie Qianyun wanted to protest.

"Your Majesty, you cannot be indecisive right now!" Wu Huahao said urgently.

Xie Qianyun had no choice but to agree through gritted teeth.

"Your Majesty, pardon me!" Wu Huahao, on horseback, directly advanced to remove Xiao Luming’s battle robe.

Xiao Luming pressed his lips together.

His Adam’s apple moved as he gazed at Wu Huahao.

Wu Huahao naturally noticed Xiao Luming’s expression, "Your Majesty is the king of a nation, you must not die. I am willing to do anything for you!"

Xiao Luming’s fingers clenched tightly.

Ultimately, he consented to Wu Huahao’s actions.

Wu Huahao took off his own battle robe, then put on Xiao Luming’s battle robe.

"For safety’s sake, I can only take most of the troops, only a small part can stay to protect His Majesty." Wu Huahao said.

"Alright." Xiao Luming agreed swiftly.

Wu Huahao and Xie Qianyun quickly arranged their manpower.

Their plan would be implemented at the next sand dune.

"Wu Huahao." As Xie Qianyun was about to part ways with him, she called out to him.

Wu Huahao looked at Xie Qianyun.

He saw the redness in her eyes.

"Don’t die. No matter what, find a way to live." Xie Qianyun said each word clearly, her voice slightly choked.

"Don’t worry, they say troublemakers live a thousand years, I won’t die. You must also protect yourself. Even if His Majesty..." Wu Huahao paused.

If His Majesty were to die, Xie Qianyun likely wouldn’t survive either.

"Next time, we’ll eat roasted chicken together!" Wu Huahao smiled.

His white teeth, shining brightly in the night.

"Alright." Xie Qianyun nodded heavily.

They reached the large sand dune ahead.

Below the dune, the Tartar army temporarily couldn’t see them, so Wu Huahao, in Xiao Luming’s battle robe, led most of the troops forward, while Xiao Luming, Xie Qianyun, Wu Shen, and ten special forces departed in the opposite direction.

They parted ways, with horses continuing to run without pause.

Covering a vast distance.

Xie Qianyun eventually couldn’t resist looking back.

At the moment she turned, she saw a multitude of troops heading directly towards Wu Huahao’s direction.

In the night, the mist gradually clouded Xie Qianyun’s vision.

She gritted her teeth and turned forward to continue racing madly.

Daybreak.

All thirteen of them got off their horses.

The horses had reached their limit, and running further would only lead to exhaustion.

The vast desert stretched infinitely; due to last night’s frantic escape, they had completely lost their bearings.

Water on them was scarce.

Under such a blazing sun, they could last at most two days.

No one could guarantee that rescue would arrive within two days.

"Let’s take a short rest first." Xiao Luming commanded.

Everyone stopped, their physical strength was depleted, and without knowing direction, wandering aimlessly was futile.

It was better to stop and think about which direction might lead to an encounter with rescuers.

Everyone sat on the ground, sipping water carefully.

Then lay on the ground to close their eyes and restore some strength.

Suddenly, a sound reached their ears.

Everyone hurried to stand up, immediately spotting a sandstorm in the distance rolling towards them...

"Quick! Let’s get out of here!" Xie Qianyun commanded loudly.

Everyone swiftly mounted their horses.

But the sandstorm came too quickly, and the horses, exhausted, had no strength left to run!

Soon.

Everyone was engulfed in the sandstorm!
