Those soldiers were suddenly frightened upon seeing Yang Zhenshan.
At that moment, Yang Zhenshan was clad in cloth armor; although it wasn’t as splendid as Zhou Lan’s gold lacquered armor with embossed patterns, his arrival on horseback accompanied by more than a dozen cavalrymen made it clear he was an official.
“Your Excellency~ We are not deserters!” a soldier stammered.
“What has happened to the main camp?” Yang Zhenshan asked again with a stern voice.
He didn’t care if these were deserters or not; he simply wanted to know what had occurred in the main camp.
“We—we’re not sure, suddenly many Northern cavalry charged into the main camp, and then we just…”
