Pei Yuanshao hurriedly ordered his henchmen to go up and stop them.

Fu Rou, of course, had to eat the letter, stuffing it into her mouth with a fierce expression.

"You bitch! Hand her over!"

One of the henchmen slapped Fu Rou across the face, trying to knock the letter out.

call out!

Suddenly an arrow was shot.

Before the henchman could even land a slap, he was struck in the throat by an arrow, whimpered twice, and collapsed backward to the ground.

call out!

Then another arrow shot down another henchman.

The other henchmen were terrified and uneasy, and dared not step forward again.

"Who goes there! If you have the guts, step forward and face me! Don't hide in the shadows and stab me in the back!"

Pei Yuanshao, carrying two battle axes, roared loudly into the mountains and forests.

Da da da!

On the main road, a dozen or so cavalrymen appeared.

They were clad in gleaming armor, their warhorses were tall and strong, and their killing intent was overwhelming; they were clearly proud soldiers stained with countless lives.

Pei Yuanshao's eyes lit up with envy when he saw their warhorses and armor!

The other side only has about ten people, while we outnumber them. Like ants trying to eat an elephant, we're sure to take them down!

"Brothers, charge! Seize their warhorses, armor, and weapons; we can definitely sell them for a good price."

Pei Yuanshao raised his axe and shouted, becoming the first to charge forward.

Faced with this sudden turn of events, Fu Rou quickly took out the letter but didn't eat it.

She wondered where the cavalry had come from, and decided to hide on a nearby hillside to find out more.

When the hundred henchmen saw Pei Yuanshao go up, they also shouted and rushed forward!

However, Pei Yuanshao hadn't gone more than ten steps before he abruptly stopped!

Behind the dozen or so cavalrymen, a large group of cavalrymen appeared.

There were over a hundred of them!

More than a hundred cavalrymen filled the narrow valley to the brim, creating a very oppressive atmosphere.

The cavalrymen had already drawn their bows and crossbows, and they all aimed them at the bandits.

Pei Yuanshao managed to stop the car, but the dozen or so henchmen in the front row rushed forward.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A volley of arrows rained down, and the dozen or so henchmen were instantly turned into hedgehogs.

Pei Yuanshao saw that the enemy had powerful bows and crossbows and so many cavalry; how could his bandits possibly stand a chance?

The other side advanced step by step.

Behind these cavalrymen, a banner appeared, bearing the words "Liu the Scholar with a Sword"!

Pei Yuanshao couldn't read.

These are clearly the regular cavalry of the Han Dynasty. It's not too late to run away now!

Just then, several people came running up from behind, staggering: "Boss, it's bad! Our cave has been discovered by the government troops!"

"The second-in-command and more than a hundred brothers were all killed. Only a few of us escaped!"

"Boss, let's run into the mountains quickly! The government troops are already chasing us this way, and it looks like they're going to wipe us out."

However, as soon as these men began to speak, they saw a neat formation of Han cavalry ahead of them, and their teeth chattered, rendering them speechless.

They were surrounded from both sides, and their only option was to die.

What!

Upon hearing that his hideout had been raided, Pei Yuanshao felt dizzy. His eyes darted around and he spotted Fu Rou hiding on the nearby mountain.

The fact that the government troops found their hideout and surrounded them must be related to this woman.

Why would someone be a good person and stand up for the wronged?

Pei Yuanshao was filled with deep regret.

These days, you can't just do good deeds casually!

You might end up getting yourself involved.

Now, Pei Yuanshao was caught in a dilemma, unable to advance or retreat, and could only stand there with his remaining henchmen, waiting for the other side's next move.

The cavalrymen also reined in their horses and stood still, parting the road like water flowing between them.

A young man wearing a purple-gold crown, a robe with four pythons, and riding a fine horse from the Western Regions walked out, followed by two sharp-eyed men.

With a face as fair as jade and eyes as bright as stars, he was clearly no ordinary person.

Fu Rou's heart couldn't help but race when she saw such a handsome man.

"Who...who are you?"

Pei Yuanshao saw the man riding towards him and felt a sense of déjà vu, as if he had seen him before.

"Who are you to dare block our prince's path? Get out of the way or you'll lose your life!"

A man next to the man in the python robe shouted.

"Your Highness?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Rou's heart pounded even harder. Could this be Liu Wei, the King of the Clouds?

She was overjoyed and prepared to go over to recognize him.

But at that moment, the man in the python robe spoke up: "You bandit, half a year ago, didn't you try to ambush about twenty people from Luoyang at the Tiger Killing Pass in Hedong County, only to be chased away by a man with a round face?"

What!

Upon hearing this, Pei Yuanshao was immediately shocked.

Six months ago, he gathered a band of thieves and robbers in the mountains outside Huguan Pass in Hedong, and his men numbered several hundred.

A man from Luoyang found him, gave him silver, and asked him to do something at Shahu Pass.

He naturally accepted the job and led his men to surround and kill the target. Just when they were about to kill him, a bearded man with a date-shaped face appeared and ruined his plans.

Pei Yuanshao fled in disarray, leading his brothers to Jiuzong Mountain in Guanzhong to establish a stronghold.

There is a Han army camp in Jiuzong Mountain. Pei Yuanshao believes that the darkest place is the one under the lamp, and the most dangerous place is also the safest place!

It's like having a brothel next to a police station.

Surprisingly, things went peacefully for several months.

Until this woman barged in.

Upon hearing the other person suddenly bring up the incident from six months ago, and taking a closer look at the young man, Pei Yuanshao immediately remembered.

He... wasn't he the person I was supposed to kill half a year ago?
