Tomorrow is 515, Qidian's anniversary and the day with the most benefits. Other than the gift bags, the 515 Red Envelopes this time must be seen. There is no reason not to snatch the Red Envelopes. Set the alarm.
The sudden appearance of the Tubo assassins in Shen He Plain was not a coincidence. They must have been lying in ambush there. But how did the Tubo assassins know that Young Master Zhao and his group would appear in Fan Chuan?
Li An suddenly realized that there must be a traitor by Young Master Zhao's side. It was this traitor who leaked the news. Moreover, this traitor was most likely on the side of the Tubo faction. Or perhaps, this traitor had been bribed by the Tubo faction.
More than 50 Tubo assassins had already surrounded them from all directions. Young Master Zhao's eyes were filled with despair. He sighed and said, "I originally wanted to ask for the protection of the Tang dynasty for my people, but I did not expect to die in the Tang dynasty. As long as I die, Dongnu Province will definitely side with Tubo and become the enemy of the Tang dynasty."
Ang Lee agreed with his point of view. If Queen Dong died in the land of the Tang dynasty, it would cause a huge diplomatic storm. No matter what the reason was, the Tang Empire would definitely be involved. The ignorant people of Dongnu Province would definitely think that the Tang Empire caused Queen Dong's death under the instigation of the anti-Tubo forces in the country. They would definitely side with Tubo.
"Tubo's conspiracy is really cunning. We must not let them succeed."
Ang Lee continuously shot and killed many Tubo assassins. His eyes flashed with confidence.
"Li Shaolang, I have implicated you." Young Master Zhao's face was apologetic. He explained, "Actually, I am Queen Dong, Zhao Yefu. Last year, after my mother-in-law passed away, I ascended the throne and followed my mother-in-law's last wish to meet the Emperor of the Tang dynasty to accept the conferment of the Tang dynasty. In our Dongnu Province, women are kings, so …"
Ang Lee grinned and said, "I have long known that Young Master Zhao is a woman. A man's face will not be so delicate, and his body will not be so soft. Hahaha …"
After saying that, he shot an arrow into the throat of a Tubo assassin, reaping a sinful life.
"You're already at death's door, yet Li Shaolang is still so talkative."
Zhao Yefu smiled sadly, but in her heart, she admired Ang Lee's optimism. She didn't expect that Ang Lee had already seen through her identity as a girl.
Li An had never thought that he would die in this godforsaken place. He had read too many novels in his previous life, and there had never been anyone who had reincarnated who would die so easily. Moreover, he had not trained his powerful martial arts for nothing. A mere dozen assassins would not be able to take his life. Furthermore, he believed that help would definitely appear.
"Yofu, don't worry. As long as I, Ang Lee, am here, you will be fine. Trust me."
Ang Lee boldly called Queen Dong's name directly. He was full of a charming heroic spirit. He was a man of the Tang dynasty. Naturally, he would not be afraid of the Tubo assassins. Moreover, he knew that once Zhao Yefu died, it would be a huge loss to the Tang Empire. Whether it was for the Tang Empire or for Zhao Yefu, he couldn't escape alone.
Zhao Yefu's heart couldn't help pounding. Ang Lee, who was full of heroic spirit, was full of the spirit of a man. It made her feel what was a sense of security and dependence. No matter whether Ang Lee was telling the truth or not, she completely believed it at this moment. She believed that Ang Lee would definitely protect her from being hurt.
The more than ten guards under Zhao Yefu's command were all elite warriors, but the Tubo assassins were not ordinary people. After shooting at each other for a while, more than half of the guards were injured or killed, but only one-fifth of the Tubo assassins were injured or killed. The situation became precarious.
Ang Lee made a prompt decision. He grabbed Zhao Yefu's arm and said, "Yofu, break out of the encirclement with me. Let's go."
Zhao Yefu almost didn't think anything. She obediently followed behind Ang Lee. At this critical moment, she had completely trusted Ang Lee. Even if she couldn't escape from the Tubo assassins' clutches in the end, she had no regrets.
"Kill!"
The Tubo assassins had already surrounded Zhao Yefu. How could they let her escape easily? Two Tubo assassins waved the long sabers in their hands and chopped at Ang Lee's head.
"You are courting death."
Ang Lee showed a touch of disdain at the corner of his mouth. He suddenly bent down and drew a beautiful arc with his saber horizontally, making the two Tubo assassins lie on the snow in shock.
Killing two people in one move, Ang Lee's tyrannical strength made the Tubo assassins on both sides turn pale with fright. Looking at the blood dripping from the saber in Ang Lee's hand, they couldn't help but be stunned.
Ang Lee seized this good opportunity and pulled Zhao Yefu out of the encirclement through the gap between the Tubo assassins.
"Chase, don't let them escape."
The Tubo assassins reacted and gathered most of their men to chase after Ang Lee and Zhao Yefu. More than a dozen assassins fired their crossbows frequently, forcing Ang Lee and Zhao Yefu to go around the trees.
"Huff, huff, huff, Li Shaolang, we might not be able to escape. The Tubo assassins have surrounded us again."
Zhao Yefu panted and fell on the snow.
Ang Lee was also a little nervous, but he understood that the more critical the moment, the more he couldn't show weakness. Once he showed weakness, there would be no hope.
"Yefu, you are the Queen of the East. If the imperial court finds out that I called your name directly, I am afraid they will kill me. Haha!"
Zhao Yefu's eyes were full of doubts, "Li Shaolang, you are still in the mood to talk about this now?"
Ang Lee smiled and looked at Zhao Yefu beside him, "I, Ang Lee, am a man of the Tang dynasty. I am not even afraid of death, why would I be afraid of these Tubo assassins?"
After saying that, he inserted the saber into the ground, drew the bow and shot at the Tubo assassins who were surrounding them.
A man of the Tang dynasty, a man of the Tang dynasty.
Zhao Yefu silently repeated it a few times in his heart. His heart couldn't help but pound. He suddenly felt that the man of the Tang dynasty in front of him was so tall and so outstanding. Of course, the Tang dynasty was the world's largest country. Its national power was strong, and its people were rich and confident. Only the men of the Tang dynasty could have such an imposing manner.
Nearly 30 Tubo assassins slowly surrounded them. Although their martial strength was not as good as Ang Lee's, their advantage in numbers was too big. This was enough to offset Ang Lee's personal martial strength advantage.
Cold arrows brushed past Ang Lee's body, making Ang Lee break out in a cold sweat from time to time. If it weren't for the dense tree trunks around him, he would have been shot by these arrows.
The Tubo assassins were approaching step by step. The shining saber reflected the sunlight, making Ang Lee's eyes constantly flicker with dazzling light. The situation had become dangerous.
Shouyu, if you don't appear, I may really die here.
The Tubo assassins were approaching. Ang Lee threw away the bow and the empty quiver, pulled out the saber in front of him, and prepared for the last desperate fight.
Zhao Yefu's martial arts were very weak, but her archery was quite good. Unfortunately, she lost her quiver when she was rolling in the snow, so she could only rely on Ang Lee's protection.
More than 20 Tubo assassins slowly closed the encirclement. They were afraid of Ang Lee's martial strength, so they didn't dare to rush to their deaths. They planned to use their collective strength to deal with Ang Lee.
There were shining sabers all around. Ang Lee protected Zhao Yefu behind him and held the saber in his hand tightly. A fierce battle with a great disparity in strength was inevitable.
"Kill!"
The six Tubo assassins at the front looked at each other, raised their shining sabers, and attacked Ang Lee from three directions at the same time.
"You are courting death."
Ang Lee roared. He jumped and rolled to the front. He waved the saber in his hand and cut the legs of two Tubo assassins.
The two Tubo assassins fell to the ground and screamed like pigs being slaughtered. Ang Lee didn't have time to think. He immediately rolled to the left and fought with the two Tubo assassins on the left.
At this moment, the two Tubo assassins on the right had already arrived in front of Zhao Yefu. They raised their shining sabers and slashed at Zhao Yefu.
The two assassins in front of him hadn't been dealt with yet. More Tubo assassins were approaching. Ang Lee couldn't split himself and couldn't effectively protect Zhao Yefu. This made him very anxious.
As a person of the later generation, he naturally understood the threat of Tubo to the Tang Empire. He also knew what it meant for Queen Dong to die near the capital of the Tang Empire. It was he who took Zhao Yefu out to play. If this caused Dongnu Province to turn against Tubo, he would become a sinner of the Tang Empire.
Zhao Yefu curled up in the snow, looking very helpless.
Queen Dong couldn't die. Zhao Yefu couldn't die.
Ang Lee dodged the joint attack of the two Tubo assassins and fiercely threw the saber in his hand.
Puff!
The saber spun in the air and cut open the necks of the two Tubo assassins in front of Zhao Yefu. Blood instantly gushed out.
At this moment, the two Tubo assassins gritted their teeth and stabbed their sabers at Ang Lee's chest.
Whoosh!
At this critical moment, two arrows whizzed through the air and accurately hit the Tibetan assassin's forehead.
It was Shouyu and Fei Yu. They really came at the right time.
Ang Lee was overjoyed. He could tell that it was these two people from the sharp arrows.
"Big Brother, we are here."
Li Kunxiong took the lead and rushed over with a spear in his hand. Behind him were Zhang Erniu, Li Feiyu, Li Feiyu, Li Feiyu, and more than thirty brothers.
Ang Lee was overjoyed and loudly said, "Kunxiong, these people are Tubo assassins. Remember to capture a few alive." After saying that, he rushed towards Zhao Yefu.
More than fifty Tubo assassins, in a situation where half of them were injured or killed, they finally got rid of Zhao Yefu's guards. They also forced Ang Lee into a very difficult situation. It could be said that they were about to succeed. However, Li Kunxiong's group suddenly arrived and made them completely lose their chance. Under the orders of the assassin leader, the remaining half of the Tubo assassins immediately scattered and retreated.
Li Kunxiong loudly shouted. Together with Shouyu, Fei Yu, and Erniu, they led more than thirty brothers to pursue the Tubo assassins.
"Yefu, no, Queen Dong, are you alright?"
Ang Lee extended his hand to help Zhao Yefu up. He had a rejoicing smile on his face.
"Li Shaolang, we are still alive. We are still alive."
Zhao Yefu's expression was emotional. Her eyes were moist with drunkenness. She suddenly threw herself into Ang Lee's arms.
"Hold me tight, okay?"
Ang Lee was slightly stunned. He immediately hugged Zhao Yefu who threw herself into his arms and gently stroked her back.
Although Zhao Yefu was Queen Dong and had a very noble status, Ang Lee was a person from the future. He would not be as dogmatic as the ancient people. Moreover, Queen Dong in his arms was very young. She was like a little girl who had not grown up. She did not have the shadow of a queen at all.
