Transmigrated To Ancient Time: Thrive With An Auction System!-Chapter 190: Ambushed ( 3 )

At this moment, Fu Chen’an didn’t have time to think about anything and focused on retreating. Fifteen minutes later, he glanced at his surroundings and noticed the marks left by his team members.

These signs were a code he often used to communicate with his team. When he understood the message, he narrowed his eyes and purposely slowed down his steps.

When the Tatars saw this, they thought that he was injured and had no energy to run anymore. They continued to chase him and didn’t notice that they had been lured by him.

The moment they realized that they had been tricked, it was too late. Yan Shu had been waiting with his soldiers. As soon as the Tatars walked into the open field, they were surrounded and outnumbered.

Seeing this, Fu Chen’an no longer ran away and turned to attack the enemies. He was born strong, and after consuming so much spiritual spring water, he was stronger than before.

With every swing of his blade, he managed to heavily injure the enemies. With a few more slashes, he killed the Tatar soldiers.

The battle lasted only twenty minutes before the Tatar soldiers were killed. Yan Shu looked around and said, "Check if there are any survivors. Burn the corpses."

"Understood," the soldiers replied in unison.

While the soldiers were clearing up the battlefield, Yan Shu noticed Fu Chen’an’s broken armor. Judging by the damage, he must have suffered a heavy injury.

He walked over to check on him. But when he was a few steps away, he noticed that although Fu Chen’an’s armor was damaged and his clothes were torn, his back didn’t have any injuries. Not to mention heavy injuries, he didn’t even have a scratch.

Yan Shu walked closer to get a better look, but before he could see anything, Fu Chen’an turned around. The moment he saw his superior staring at him, he was taken aback.

He cupped his fists and slightly bowed his head as he greeted him. "Centurion Yan."

Yan Shu looked at the young man in front of him with narrowed eyes. He was covered in blood, but his eyes were bright, and his cheeks were flushed. He didn’t look like someone who had suffered injuries.

Feeling curious, he asked, "Squad Leader Fu, what happened to your armor?"

Hearing this, Fu Chen’an recalled the heavy hit he felt when he was retreating. He tried to touch his back and was shocked to feel the tear in his armor.

His armor was made of thick leather layered with bronze. Although it was old, it was still in good condition. He never expected that the Tatar soldiers’ attack would be so heavy. Fortunately, his wife gave him the soft golden armor. Otherwise, he might have been killed by that attack.

It took him a while to calm down before replying, "This subordinate was attacked by a Tatar soldier when I was retreating."

When he heard this, Yan Shu rubbed his chin and asked again, "Then, how could you survive such an attack?"

"This subordinate is wearing a soft golden armor given by my wife," Fu Chen’an replied truthfully.

"Oh? Your wife treats you so well. I heard that a piece of soft golden armor is very expensive, at least several hundred taels of gold," Yan Shu said with raised eyebrows.

It was a public secret that Fu Chen’an and his wife had a very good relationship, since his wife would send lunch and dinner to him every day. But he never expected her to be this generous.

After all, no matter how good the relationship was, most women would keep money for themselves and their children rather than spending all of it on their husbands.

Not knowing that his superior was feeling envious of him, Fu Chen’an only smiled and didn’t explain further.

Based on Yan Shu’s words, it seemed that owning a piece of soft golden armor was already extraordinary. If he knew that he owned a whole set, he feared that this matter would bring trouble to him and his wife.

The best approach was to keep silent and let others speculate. No matter what they thought, they wouldn’t be able to force him to strip naked and let them check his soft golden armor.

Yan Shu also didn’t plan to ask further and dropped the topic. After they stripped the Tatars of their armor, weapons, and belongings, they dug a hole and threw the corpses into it. Afterward, they piled dried branches on top and lit the fire.

Since Fu Chen’an’s team members were injured, they were ordered to return to the camp first, while the rest of the soldiers waited until they finished burning the corpses. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

When all the soldiers returned to the camp, the sun had set, and the sky had darkened.

The battle against the Tatars lasted for another ten days before they managed to drive them out of the Great Yan territory.

Although they failed to kill Damir Aydar, they managed to kill more than seventy percent of his troops. With such heavy casualties, he wouldn’t attack them again in the near future.

To ensure that they wouldn’t come back, they left some soldiers at the border to patrol. The rest of the soldiers, including Fu Chen’an’s team, returned to the military barracks the next day.

While they were marching, Yao Zhi was busy in the kitchen. It has been more than 4 months since she brewed wine using wheat, millet, and longan. The wine was stored in her system’s farmland, and today, she finally took out the ceramic vats.

The moment she opened the seal, the air was filled with a very fragrant aroma with a hint of fermented fruit and grains. She couldn’t help but take a deep sniff and let out a long sigh.

Although the period of fermentation was more than the maximum time, since it was stored in the system’s farmland, it didn’t turn into vinegar nor develop a layer of moss. Instead, the fragrance intensified.
