Great Tang princess

Chapter 295 Not a God
Li Yuechen kept walking through the water, and it didn't take long to find eight or nine of his soldiers, all of whom were still very conscious.

Now the length of the rope was not enough, Li Yuechen asked them to grab the rope and swim back to the shore by themselves, and continue to find other people by themselves.

The nearest soldier turned his head and spat out a mouthful of muddy river water: "I'm not tired yet, I can be with His Highness..."

"Okay, this is not the time to be a hero!" Li Yuechen taught a lesson, "I'm waiting downstream, the current is fast, and the central area is too dangerous. You are not as watery as me, so don't get involved easily!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and asked the soldiers on the shore to pull the rope. Then he took a deep breath and continued to swim towards the center of the current.

She knew very well in her heart that once she was caught in the middle of the water, it would definitely be a disaster, and she might not be able to bring any of them back.

But even so, he had to try, after all, he brought out the soldiers himself, Li Yuechen couldn't just watch them being swept away!
Most of these soldiers are still very young, some are not even married yet, Li Yuechen wants to save as many as possible!
After entering the central area, the current became more and more turbulent. Even with the skills of an all-round athlete like Li Yuechen, he was almost unable to stabilize his figure.

After finally controlling himself, Li Yuechen quickly reached out and grabbed the two soldiers who were about to pass by along the water.

"Your Highness..." a soldier exclaimed in surprise.

Li Yuechen did not answer, but grabbed the sleeves of the two with one hand, and then stretched out his hand to another soldier who was about to be swept away: "Grab me!"

The soldier didn't react too slowly, and immediately stretched out his hand, but missed her by a bit, instead of grabbing her hand, he grabbed her sleeve!
Li Yuechen pulled his arm violently and grabbed the opponent's wrist.

Although three people were caught at once, there were still many people around.

"Catch them, one by one!" Li Yuechen roared.

"Your Highness, no! In this way, Your Highness will be dragged down by us..."

"Stop fucking nonsense! Hurry up!" Li Yuechen yelled, making them grab each other like monkeys fishing for the moon.

After a while, people arrested people, and soon two long teams were formed. In this way, it was equivalent to Li Yuechen carrying a team of seven or eight people with each hand.

Now Li Yuechen is holding two teams of soldiers with both hands, swimming towards the shore just by swinging his legs.

If it was on land, with her strength, it might not be a problem to forcefully drag a dozen people.But now they are in the middle of the turbulent water, and it takes a lot of physical strength just to fight against the turbulent water.

Not to mention that Li Yuechen hadn't rested since his arrival, and his physical exertion was quite serious. Just by swinging his legs, he couldn't move so many people.

After all, she is not a perpetual motion machine, and she will be tired. No matter how powerful she is, she cannot withstand such a long-term consumption.

The soldiers on the bank who saw this scene jumped into the water one after another and wanted to come to help, but their swimming skills were not enough, and they would be washed back by the current if they couldn't swim at all.

Thanks to the ropes tied around the waists of these soldiers, otherwise they would have been washed away first.

The soldiers went forward and jumped several times, but they couldn't come to help, so they could only worry on the shore.

Geng Yunqiang was also anxious when he saw this scene with a telescope, but he had no choice. He couldn't leave. If there was no one on the command post, the consequences would be serious.

In desperation, Geng Yunqiang came up with a solution: "Find a wooden stick, link it up and pass it to His Highness!"

He didn't know if this method would be possible in time, but this was the fastest method he could think of now.

The soldiers below hurriedly found long and thin wooden sticks, and then tied them with horses one by one.

At this time, Li Yuechen, who was in the middle of the river, already felt that her physical strength had begun to decline seriously, and she was a little unsure about her rescue.

In a trance, I seem to think of the extreme sports I have challenged, all of which I challenged without full confidence.

It's just that I was lucky and survived every time. I hope this good luck can continue to this day.

Li Yuechen tried his best to swing his legs and swam to the shore.

However, the soldiers who were pulled behind could clearly feel that their tracks were gradually shifting, and there were even signs that they were getting farther and farther from the shore.

Looking at Li Yuechen's expression of clenching her teeth, I know that she is probably holding on now.

The fifth soldier dragged by Li Yuechen's left hand suddenly shouted: "His Royal Highness, let go! If this continues, His Highness will also be implicated and washed away!"

"Qi Ruxiang! Shut up!" Li Yuechen gritted his teeth and taught him a lesson.

She knew this soldier. He was one of the soldiers who chased the Tubo army with her. After the merger of the left and right Qianniuwei, he was promoted to sergeant and took the position of squad leader.

"Your Highness, that's enough! I can't drag Your Highness to die with us!" Qi Ruxiang replied loudly, "I just hope His Highness can take care of our old mother!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and looked at the soldiers behind him: "Brothers, I am the master, and I can't continue to drag His Highness down! If you have any opinions, you can vent them in the underworld!"

"Squad leader, don't underestimate me!" The soldier behind replied tremblingly, "If you can join His Highness's subordinates as a soldier, you won't be afraid of death!"

The soldier carried the rank of private on his shoulders. Although there was some fear in his eyes, his tone was still firm!
Some of the soldiers behind did not speak, but they all had firm expressions.

Qi Ruxiang nodded, and then let go of the hand in front of him. However, the soldier in front did not let go, and still held his hand tightly.

"Let go!" Qi Ruxiang roared.

The soldier in front did not speak, but shook his head firmly.

At the same time, Li Yuechen also gritted his teeth and roared: "Don't let go! I can take you up!"

Although the words were firm, her tone had obviously softened a lot. It was obvious that she was almost running out of strength to speak now.

They were getting farther and farther away from the shore, and they never left the center of the rushing water.

The waves brought a large number of water droplets to beat them, pushing them away from the shore.

"Your Highness, let go!" Qi Ruxiang yelled as he struggled, "If I implicate Your Highness, I will be a ghost!"

Now Li Yuechen didn't even have the strength to reply, he just mechanically swung his legs and swam towards the shore.

But in fact, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't take another half step forward, instead he was constantly retreating.

The soldiers holding on to her right hand also shouted, telling her to let go.

However, Li Yuechen still didn't answer, just wanted to maintain his strength and take them back to swim.

Seeing that his yelling was useless, Qi Ruxiang suddenly turned his head and said to the soldiers behind him: "Brothers, go ahead, I'll come later!"

The soldier behind nodded: "Yes!"

As soon as the voice fell, he let go of Qi Ruxiang's hand.

The next moment, five or six soldiers were washed away by the rushing water, without even leaving a sound!
Li Yuechen only felt a loosening of his left hand, and his strenuous situation suddenly eased a lot.Turning around, five or six soldiers had already disappeared.

"Bastard!" Li Yuechen yelled suddenly, "Who told you to let go! Did my mother tell you to die?"

There was anger in this roar, but at the same time there was a hint of crying.

Li Yuechen was extremely sad to see the soldiers he brought out with great difficulty being washed away like this.

Qi Ruxiang grinned: "We'll wait, remember Your Highness's kindness!"

After finishing speaking, he swung the soldier's hand in front of him violently, and was washed away by the rushing water the next moment!
"Bastard!" Li Yuechen cursed again.

At this time, a non-commissioned officer on the right side also turned his head and said: "Brothers, the time to be loyal to His Highness has come, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!" The soldier behind shouted.

Li Yuechen turned his head and shouted: "Don't let go! Otherwise, I'll see how I punish you!"

"Hahaha, if there is an afterlife, I will still be His Highness's soldier!"

With a loud laugh, the soldier also let go.

The soldier holding him in front turned his head and said, "Master, I'll wait with you!"

"No!" The soldier replied, "You have to replace me and pass on the spirit of His Highness to future apprentices!"

As he said that, he snapped his arm abruptly. He had already let go of his hand, and it was not stable with only one person holding it. In addition, it was soaked in the river water, and it was slippery.In this way, he completely shook off the apprentice's arm.

"Master!" The soldier in front watched as he disappeared into the water and couldn't help shouting.

There were seven or eight people missing all of a sudden, and the pressure on Li Yuechen dropped sharply. In order to prevent them from doing this kind of thing again, he swung his legs quickly and led them to swim to the shore.

Once out of the center of gravity, the speed of the water flow slowed down a lot, and the pressure became smaller.

The soldiers on the shore who had already been ready to respond immediately rushed over and brought the person she was holding up. Li Yuechen, who loosened his hands, was about to turn around and swim into the water again, but was grabbed by two soldiers.

"Your Highness can't!"

"The water in the center is too fast, Your Highness must rest!"

"Let go of me, old lady!" Li Yuechen yelled and was about to continue jumping into the water.

But if it is normal, how can two men drag her?But now no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn't break free from the hands of the two soldiers, which also showed that her physical strength had really reached its limit.

Two soldiers grabbed her by one arm and dragged her abruptly to the shore, allowing her two feet to draw two gullies on the ground.

The two soldiers who dragged her brought him to Geng Yunqiang: "Brigade Commander, Your Highness has not rested, and no water has entered, so you can't go into the water anymore!"

"Release me! Now my mother's words don't work anymore, right?" Li Yuechen yelled in a crying voice.

Looking at Li Yuechen who was acting like a little girl, Geng Yunqiang was helpless, turned his head and said: "I am afraid that only your highnesses can watch over the princess now, this..."

"Let me come!" Princess Yiyang handed the pen and paper to Princess Xuancheng and walked over.

Li Xian and Li Lun beside them also put down their things and came over to comfort them.

Princess Yiyang waved her hand and asked the two soldiers to let her go.

As soon as the soldier let go, Li Yuechen stood up and was about to run into the water, but because of too much physical exertion, he staggered and almost fell after taking two steps.

Princess Yiyang walked out of the pavilion, letting the rain wet her clothes and hair, and came behind Li Yuechen, trying to support her.

In the end, she was thrown away, but at this time she had no physical strength, so she just pushed her away slightly.

However, before continuing to run forward, Princess Yiyang suddenly took a step forward, stopped in front of her, raised her hand and slapped her with a "slap".

After being slapped, Li Yuechen staggered and sat on the ground, splashing a puddle of muddy water, staring at her sister blankly.

Everyone in the pavilion was stunned. They didn't expect Princess Yiyang to beat her suddenly.

With tears in the corners of Princess Yiyang's eyes, she yelled in a crying voice: "Chen'er, you always say that you are not a god. Since you are a mortal, don't think you have supernatural powers!"

With that said, she squatted down and hugged the stunned Li Yuechen in her arms: "You've done enough! It's time to rest!"

Li Yuechen, who was being hugged by his sister, suddenly raised his arms and hugged his sister, and burst into tears, crying while shouting: "They are my soldiers! The soldiers I brought out myself..."

Li Yuechen's cries were extremely loud in the pouring rain, like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of everyone present.

Geng Yunqiang and the other soldiers remained silent. They always thought that His Highness was omnipotent, but they ignored that she was just a little girl less than twenty years old, and she also had a vulnerable side.

Li Xian and the others looked at each other, walked out from the pavilion, let the rain wet their hair and clothes, hugged their youngest sister with Princess Yiyang, and comforted him softly.

And the victims in the pavilion couldn't help standing up and watching this scene. Their expressions were complicated, and their distress for the princess also flashed in their eyes.

At the beginning, they only saw that the princess was like a white strip in the waves, walking through the water, saving people back and forth non-stop, and even floating on the water surface, riding the wind and waves.

But now, this lofty royal princess was sitting in the heavy rain covered in mud, crying sadly because she couldn't save her soldiers, like a helpless little girl.

But these soldiers, didn't they come to rescue them, the victims of the disaster?Now the disaster victims have saved a lot, but the soldiers have also lost a lot...

The victims stood in the pavilion and looked at the princess crying in the rain without saying a word, and many of them also shed tears.

Geng Yunqiang, who was standing not far away, really wanted to come over and admit his mistake to His Highness. It was his negligence of duty, and he, the brigade commander, did not command well.

But he can't do it now, the disaster relief work is not over yet, he still has to coordinate and direct the various teams to continue to complete the disaster relief work.

As a commander, he knew that he could not be affected by emotions, so he just took a deep breath in the rain and reminded loudly: "Please send the princess to rest first, Your Highness, and I will continue to direct the follow-up process here."

Li Xian nodded: "Shiro and I will continue to wait here, and the two elder sisters will send Yuechen to rest in the tent first."

"Okay!" Princess Yiyang nodded and agreed.
