Chapter 1313
Along the way, they saw many soldiers moving in the same direction, but only a few of them were on horseback.
Most of them could only run on their own two feet, and they tried to call out to the riders to take them on horseback, but no one paid any attention.
During the journey, Yao Guangxiao also saw many people who changed direction midway, clearly preparing to desert.
However, Yao Guangxiao was too lazy to pay attention to these people and just kept shaking the reins, trying to make the horse run faster.
After galloping for about seven or eight minutes, Yao Guangxiao suddenly pulled on the reins, slowing the horse down until it came to a stop.
He then glanced back towards the military camp, but from that distance, he could only see thick black smoke rising upwards.
At this moment, the soldier escorting Yao Guangxiao also stopped and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
"Grand Preceptor, this place isn't too far from the military camp. We need to get to the high ground as soon as possible; we can't stop here easily..."
The soldier wanted to persuade Yao Guangxiao to continue on his way, but the next second he noticed that something was wrong with the expression on Yao Guangxiao's face.
So he quickly asked:
"Your Excellency, what is this...?"
The soldier was about to continue questioning when he suddenly noticed that Yao Guangxiao seemed to have something to say, so he quickly fell silent.
Just then, Yao Guangxiao spoke up, but his voice was very weak.
"I fell into a coma because a shell exploded not far from me."
"I originally thought I was lucky and that nothing would happen to me, but now it seems I've probably suffered internal injuries!"
"I didn't feel anything when we were walking together, but the jolting on horseback felt like needles pricking my internal organs."
"The pain is unbearable, I..."
Yao Guangxiao's voice grew weaker and weaker, and his face turned deathly pale.
Then, halfway through his sentence, he seemed to lose all his strength, and his whole body swayed.
Before the soldier could react, he closed his eyes and fell off the horse.
"Grand Preceptor!!"
Upon seeing Yao Guangxiao fall from his horse, the soldiers immediately panicked, jumped off their horses, and ran over quickly.
At this moment, Yao Guangxiao lay motionless on the grass, as if he were dead, which terrified the soldiers.
Upon reaching Yao Guangxiao, he quickly reached out his hands, intending to help him up and check on his condition.
However, at that moment, he suddenly felt as if something had burrowed into his heart, and a sharp pain struck him.
When he looked down, he found a dagger stuck in his heart, and the person holding the dagger was Yao Guangxiao.
Although Yao Guangxiao's face was still pale, his expression was very cold, and his eyes were icy.
"The State, the Imperial Advisor, Your Excellency, why, why..."
"If you don't die, I'll have to go to the highlands, so you deserve to die!"
As he spoke, Yao Guangxiao suddenly exerted force, plunging the entire dagger into the soldier's heart.
The soldier lay on the ground, staring at Yao Guangxiao with unseeing eyes, while the latter walked unsteadily toward his horse!
That's right, Yao Guangxiao had already decided to escape from the beginning, but he was unable to leave smoothly because he was hit by artillery fire.
When he woke up and found himself still alive, his first reaction was to escape, but unfortunately there was a soldier with him.
At the same time, he was in the military camp but did not know the situation there, so he went with the soldiers to see the general.
He planned to meet with them and then find an opportunity to leave, because he knew very well that the Northern Yuan army was finished and could not turn the tide.
Continuing to stay with the Northern Yuan army would either result in them becoming prisoners of the Ming army or being killed on the spot.
Yao Guangxiao knew very well that he absolutely could not be captured, otherwise he would eventually be handed over to Wei Wu.
